When the moon is full, the moonlight shines in the library, and Yun Jianyue's face by the window is a little pale. He is holding a book in his hand, and the knuckles holding the book are a little too hard, causing them to turn white.
Yu Xiyi was flipping through the book irritably.
"He's not back yet!"
After a while, he finally couldn't help it any longer, raised his head and looked at Yun Jianyue, "Ah Yue, please speak!"
The Holy Lord had returned from the Holy Tree a long time ago and returned to the main hall. If Chen Chao had not left the main hall, then it was obvious that he could not leave either.
This is the answer they all know.
Yun Jianyue glanced at Yu Xiyi, a trace of sadness flashed in her eyes, but it quickly disappeared, "This is his choice, you know, as long as a person like him makes a choice, no one can convince him.
"
"What's more, we should believe him."
Yun Jianyue took a deep breath, "Because there is no other way."
Yu Xiyi stood up with a groan and said, "I want to go take a look."
The person he respected the most in his life was the Emperor of Liang, but the person with whom he had the deepest friendship was Chen Chao.
Not just because Chen Chao saved his life.
"You can't go."
Yun Jianyue looked at him and said, "Have you forgotten what he said before he left?"
"Damn it, I don't want to hear it!"
Yu Xiyi gritted his teeth and stopped just as he turned around.
Yun Jianyue looked out the window and said calmly: "Either wait for him to come back, or be stronger and avenge him. Other than that, there is no other way."
Yu Xiyi looked ugly and was speechless.
Yun Jianyue is silently circulating his Tao Qi. He has mastered several Tao techniques. Although he has not yet been able to break through the realm, his realm has already become stronger than before.
Some things cannot be changed for the time being just because they are not strong enough yet. As long as they are strong enough, they can do anything.
…
…
"You are not the Holy Lord."
In the cold hall, a quiet sound rang out, and a young man stood in front of the curtain, looking at the tall figure in the curtain.
There was no sound in the curtain, but the so-called Holy Lord must have heard it.
There was a brief moment of silence.
The main hall was silent.
I don't know how long it took before the Holy Lord said: "I didn't expect that you could sneak into this holy mountain, but you came all alone?"
Chen Chao looked at the curtain and was too lazy to speak first, but immediately drew his sword.
After a flash of sword light, the curtain slowly fell down, and the tall figure of the Holy Lord appeared in front of him.
He sat cross-legged under the bright sun, looking very majestic, but Chen Chao didn't care.
"If the Holy Master only has the ability like you, then if I just kill you, will things be simple?"
Chen Chao raised his eyebrows and looked at the Holy Lord in front of him. Under his observation, the other party was only in the Fuyun realm, and was far from powerful.
Chen Chao even felt that he was not as scary as the Demon Emperor.
"Many times, to sit in a high position, you don't actually have to be very strong. As long as you can suppress others, that's enough. Everyone thinks that I should be invincible, but I am a person with poor cultivation, ordinary talents, and
What's the problem?"
The Holy Master wore that mask, but Chen Chao could clearly see the mockery in his eyes.
"Every emperor of your dynasty must be invincible in order to become the king of a country?"
"Think about it for yourself, is this true?"
Chen Chao thought for a moment and said, "What you said makes sense, but if I want to kill you, what can you do?"
The Holy Lord smiled and said: "I think there must be a better solution, why do you have to kill me?"
Chen Chao narrowed his eyes and said, "You and I are standing on both sides of the river. What solution do we have?"
The Holy Mountain wants to destroy the world, and the Chen Dynasty wants to save the world. This is a natural hostility, and no one can change it.
The Holy Lord looked at Chen Chao and smiled: "It's actually very simple. Why should I destroy the world?"
"It's because cultivation requires the vitality of heaven and earth to support it, and if there are too many monks, more of the vitality of heaven and earth is consumed. If one goes up and downs, the vitality of heaven and earth is not enough for us, so we must clear out some monks."
"But now, isn't the real star about to mature?"
The Holy Lord looked at Chen Chao, "Once the stars return to their positions, then there will no longer be a need for so-called savings and less consumption in the world. Everyone can practice as they wish. Soon, the vast and prosperous age will come back, like you."
For such a genius, Fuyun is not the end, those legendary realms, thousands of miles, reaching the sky, and even the realm of saints, are all possible."
"Let's leave such a prosperous age and just practice individually."
The Holy Lord looked at Chen Chao and was filled with emotion.
Chen Chao also looked at him, thinking about those words.
Thousands of miles, reaching the sky, and the realm of saints, is that the realm after Fuyun?
Is the road to spiritual practice still so long?
As a monk, who doesn't want to go to the highest mountain top to see how to be the strongest?
"Even if the prosperous age comes, will you be willing to give up everything you have now?"
Chen Chao looked at the Holy Lord in front of him and suddenly said, "Your talent is not good, and you are old. If you really usher in such a world, you will soon be surpassed by others. By then, you will no longer be superior.
As a human being, can you accept such a gap?"
The Holy Lord smiled and said: "For countless years, I have never left the Holy Mountain. You say that I control the world, but except for the destruction of the world, what about the people of this world? How have I ever interfered?"
"In this case, why should I be so superior? If I really want to be the master of all living beings, shouldn't I let the world pay homage to me sooner or later? Why hide in this isolated island and live quietly?"
Chen Chao smiled and said, "It sounds reasonable."
The Holy Lord said: "Perhaps it is not impossible for you to want to be the Holy Lord."
Chen Chao raised his head, "Can you even give up the Holy Lord to me?"
"There is probably no one in this world who is more suitable to be the Holy Master than you. I just want to die..."
The words were not spoken yet.
Chen Chao had already arrived in front of him and suddenly drew his sword.
A flash of sword cut off his mask.
Revealing his old face.
Chen Chao smiled and said, "As expected, he is an old man."
The next moment, he punched the white head.
The Holy Lord took a few steps back, and his whole body was filled with holy light, like a bright sun. "Since I don't understand the truth, I have to compare with you to see who deserves to live."
Chen Chao frowned slightly, this big sun was very familiar to him.
I remembered the fireball in the eyes of the girl in white.
However, he still took one step forward and punched the big sun in front of him. In an instant, the breath dispersed, and the terrifying Gang Qi blew in the hall.
The most powerful punch in the world, how could it be so simple?
The Holy Lord hid himself in the bright sun and said indifferently, "If you are stubborn, I will send you back to the West early!"
