: Remaining Thoughts

The vast and mysterious world.

This is a vast world located within the Great Thousand Universe Ocean.

Its foundation and the number of powerful individuals far surpass those of the Primordial Spirit Great Thousand World.

If we were to rank the tens of thousands of worlds in the vast universe, the Xuanhuang Great Thousand World would easily be among the top 100.

Three beams of light passed through the Great Thousand World Gate and stood within the Xuanhuang Great Thousand World.

Luo Chen turned his head and looked at the statue sitting cross-legged beside the Great Thousand World Gate with a strange look in his eyes.

He recognized at a glance that the aura of this statue was exactly the same as that of the Supreme Immortal Emperor in the Yuanling Great Thousand World.

It seems that the Celestial Emperor is the one who replaced the Purple Extreme Celestial God.

Managing the gates of the Great Thousand Worlds and overseeing the Great Thousand Worlds is a cushy job. It allows you to accumulate merit very quickly and doesn't interfere with your time for cultivation and enlightenment.

However, because it requires the supervision of tens of thousands of Great Thousand World Gates at once, the cultivation level of the Enforcement God is relatively high, and only those at the Supreme Immortal Emperor level can take on this role.

The three activated the Great Thousand Realms Gate and entered it.

The stone statue of the Celestial Emperor Haoyu's eyes flickered with spiritual light, gradually transforming into a flesh and blood body.

The true form of the spirit descended, its gaze falling upon Luo Chen and his group. Startled, it quickly rose and said, "Haoyu Shangqiong... pays respects to Immortal Ancestor Luo."

Luo Chen nodded slightly, said nothing more, and got up to head towards the Great Thousand World.

Haoyu Shangqiong Immortal Emperor did not find Luo Chen's attitude inappropriate. It was only when Su Qingchen, who was following behind him, passed by that he was surprised and asked in astonishment.

"The Yellow Springs Immortal Emperor?"

"What's wrong with you?"

His eyes shifted unpredictably. There were a fair number of Celestial Emperors in the Heavenly Court, but not a small number either. As a cultivator, he possessed an exceptional memory and naturally recognized each and every one of them.

Unexpectedly, the Yellow Spring Immortal Emperor, who is usually very low-key, is actually related to this Luo Immortal Ancestor.

"Heavens, Luo Xianzu is the founder of our sect."

Su Qingchen didn't explain further, then said a few words and took his leave.

She didn't say this for any particular reason; nowadays, Luo Chen's every move is under intense scrutiny.

The Heavenly Realm is probably already aware that the Yellow Springs Immortal Emperor descended to the mortal realm today along with the Luo Immortal Ancestor.

The Heavenly Court will soon know this information, and since Haoyu Shangqiong Immortal Emperor has asked, it's fine to inform him.

Watching the three streaks of light disappear into the distance.

As Hao Yu Shang Qiong Immortal Emperor stood beside the Great Thousand Realms Gate, his figure gradually lost its vitality and turned into a stone statue. He left with some emotion.

……

Outside a divine city ruled by a Xuanhuang Dao Palace.

Three figures suddenly appeared.

Luo Chen looked around the heavens and finally decided to descend to this place, where a causal relationship was inexplicably triggered by his arrival.

However, Luo Chen deduced the cause several times but still couldn't find the source of the cause, which was really strange.

"Great Emperor, the Xuanhuang Dao Palace is located in the Outer Heavens. Won't you go and take a look?"

The Great Luo Sword Saint was puzzled, not understanding why Luo Chen had suddenly changed direction and come to this city.

"I have observed the Xuanhuang Great Thousand World. In recent years, the Xuanhuang Dao Palace has ruled well and maintained a good order. However, once any power becomes too powerful, its disciples will become increasingly arrogant and will not take other forces' cultivators seriously."

"This arrogant and disdainful attitude must have offended quite a few people, right?"

"But this is not your fault; the root cause still lies with the Xuanhuang Emperor."

Luo Chen spoke softly, walking step by step toward the city ahead.

His final words still echoed in the ears of the Great Luo Sword Saint.

"I won't go to the Outer Heaven. Go back and tell the current ruler of the Xuanhuang Dao Palace that being a ruler is not a right to act recklessly, but a responsibility. Let's see if the Xuanhuang Dao Palace can change in time."

The Great Luo Sword Saint opened his mouth, but did not try to stop Luo Chen.

Watching Luo Chen and Su Qingchen head towards the city, the surprise from just now completely vanished.

He naturally understood the conduct of most disciples in the Xuanhuang Dao Palace.

Let alone others, even before he first entered the Primordial World, the Great Luo Sword Saint himself had such an arrogant attitude.

"Everything will be alright, senior will definitely change his attitude."

Having made up his mind, the Great Luo Sword Saint headed towards the Xuanhuang Palace in the Outer Heavens.

He must return to convey the Emperor's will.

He understood that Luo Chen was not entirely the Xuanhuang Emperor after all, and if the Xuanhuang Dao Palace did not carry out reforms from top to bottom, it would never gain the Emperor's approval.

But the fact that Luo Chen was willing to come and explore the Xuanhuang Great World is the best start.

Shengtian City.

An ancient and magnificent city.

Luo Chen led Su Qingchen along the bustling street.

Here, one can clearly observe what the world under the rule of the Xuanhuang Dao Palace looks like.

"Your Majesty, I have disappointed you," Su Qingchen said softly, a resolute glint in his eyes.

Since her ascension to heaven, the status of the Xuanhuang Dao Palace has risen to another level, becoming even more domineering and unparalleled, with its disciples running rampant in the Xuanhuang Great Thousand World.

"I foresee the destruction of the Xuanhuang Dao Palace, and if I don't make changes, this vague future will gradually become a reality."

Luo Chen shook his head and said softly.

Su Qingchen's body trembled; she believed Luo Chen's words without a doubt.

"Yes..." Su Qingchen wanted to ask more.

But Luo Chen stopped him with a single glance.

"Heavenly secrets cannot be revealed." Luo Chen smiled and walked towards the City Lord's Mansion.

Su Qingchen had no choice but to suppress his unease and stay by Luo Chen's side.

We strolled along, heading towards the city center.

Suddenly, a commotion erupted outside the luxurious city lord's mansion with its high red walls and courtyards, and a crowd of onlookers gathered on the street.

In front of the city lord's mansion, a young man dressed in tattered clothes, holding a girl in his arms, was being punched and kicked by two servants.

But the boy remained silent, his eyes calm, or rather, numb.

Upon closer inspection, the girl he was protecting in his arms had a beautiful face, but she was already barely breathing, her life force was dim, and she was on the verge of death.

"Get out of here, take these three taels of silver and buy a coffin."

"It's a blessing for you two that Young Master Jin has taken a liking to your sister."

"Go away, don't dirty the gate of the city lord's mansion."

After a series of angry curses, the two servants, their faces fierce, dispersed the crowd and returned to the city lord's mansion.

On the cold bluestone ground, bloodstains were splattered. The boy struggled to his feet, trembling as he touched his sister's cheek, a tear sliding down his cheek.

"Sister, we're going home."

"What's your name?"

Suddenly, a gentle voice came from behind.

The boy turned his head and looked at Luo Chen warily. Seeing the smile on Luo Chen's face, the anger and vigilance in his heart suddenly disappeared.

He paused for a moment, then used his small frame to carry his sister on his back and headed step by step towards the outside of the city.

My name is Yu Nian.

[Yu Nian (not included in the product): 0/0]

This child?

Luo Chen narrowed his eyes. Was it this child who had triggered his own karma?

It's one thing if I couldn't figure it out before, but now that I'm standing right in front of him, I still can't deduce it myself?

Luo Chen found it interesting and followed slowly, saying softly, "Do you want to cultivate? I can teach you, as long as you become my disciple."

If any cultivator in the heavens and the outside world were to hear these words, they would probably tremble with excitement, surrounded by auspicious clouds, their path to the Great Dao shining brightly.

"I am unable to cultivate."

Yu Nian's voice was very soft, tinged with numbness.

He was an immortal who had lived for an unknown amount of time, which should have been a cause for celebration.

After all, the purpose of cultivation is to achieve immortality, and he has already attained it.

But it was also the beginning of misfortune. Over the millennia, he had tried countless methods, but none of them could lead him on any path of cultivation.

Even if it hones one's strength and willpower, one will recover to normal by the next day.

Yu Nian was in great pain. He had thought about suicide. Every time he died, he would wake up hundreds of years later and then wander in a strange place, repeating the cycle endlessly.

Every thousand years, he falls into a deep sleep, and each time he awakens, he appears in an unknown place.

After waking up this time, he appeared outside Shengtian City and was picked up by the girl in his arms.

The two relied on each other for half a year, when they happened to be spotted by the young master of the city lord's mansion during his outing, and the girl was forcibly taken back to the mansion.

I never expected the bad news to come so quickly.

Yu Nian suddenly stopped, staring blankly at Luo Chen, and asked, "You are a cultivator, can you revive her?"

Luo Chen nodded, then said, "Her life has already been too painful. Do you really want to save her?"

Yu Nian remained silent and continued heading out of the city.

Luo Chen continued, "If you become my disciple, I can personally send your sister into the cycle of reincarnation and bestow blessings upon her. She will surely achieve extraordinary things in her next life. What do you say?"

Yu Nian stopped again, turned to look at Luo Chen, and nodded in agreement without hesitation.
