"So, is that still your dream?" Qian Li asked Li Xuanzu, suppressing her nausea.

The scene needs no further description; just imagining it is enough to send chills down your spine.

"It's not like that anymore, it's been like that for a long time." Li Xuanzu smiled bitterly, his words sounding like self-mockery.

My dream now is to become an immortal above all others, a being who can bring the dead back to life, heal the wounded, and even revive the dead by reversing the five elements.

Li Xuanzu did not reveal the truth; even when recounting past events, he used "sect" instead of "grand sect."

As for the reason, it's meaningless.

If I had to say something, it would be to prevent Qian Li from overthinking.

Qian Li fell silent again, unsure how to comment on these matters.

Or perhaps, she is unable to comment on the matter.

Did Li Xuanzu do something wrong?

From what I learned from him, that world was completely devoid of law.

They abducted women, murdered them to cover their tracks, and slaughtered entire families.

All injustices can only be reclaimed by oneself; without strength, one is nothing but a lowly insect.

To be humiliated and trampled upon by others.

It's not hard to imagine how frustrated Li Xuanzu would have been if he hadn't been talented or worked hard enough.

"Go to sleep. It makes me feel better to have said all this," Li Xuanzu said to Qian Li in a deep voice.

These matters were originally known only to Li Xuanzu, and there were only a handful of people who knew about them, all of whom were silenced by Li Xuanzu.

Although Li Xuanzu had already softened his tone considerably.

But in Qian Li's view, this was nothing more than the calm before the storm, a beast suppressing its rage.

This time she didn't refuse, not because she was sleepy, but because Li Xuanzu's current appearance was too terrifying.

Li Xuanzu shook his head as he watched Qian Li flee.

"I am truly hypocritical." Li Xuanzu raised his hand and opened it towards the moon.

Moonlight shone through Li Xuanzu's fingers onto him.

For some reason, whether it was the smell of blood in the air or the fact that Li Xuanzu was already covered in blood, the light made Li Xuanzu's eyes appear extremely crimson.

"Hehe, hahaha, what does it matter if the world doesn't understand? When I cultivate to become a true immortal, I will tell you that the world is full of confusion." Li Xuanzu seemed to be comforting himself.

... ...

Fu Yu woke up in the morning.

She stretched vigorously, and the soreness in her limbs had long since disappeared. Fu Yu felt like she had inexhaustible energy.

"Awake? Get ready to absorb the spirit core." Li Xuanzu suddenly leaned his head out of the car window.

"Ahhh! Li Xuanzu, don't scare me like that!" Fu Yu hadn't even straightened up when she was startled by Li Xuanzu.

"Really, even so early in the morning..." Fu Yu rubbed her twisted back and slowly got out of the car.

Just as one problem was about to be solved, another arose. Fu Yu screamed again after getting out of the car.

There was no other reason than that Li Xuanzu hadn't had time to deal with the group of second-tier zombies that Qian Li had killed last night, and he had simply taken the spirit cores and left them there.

It's not that we haven't tried to manage it.

"Big Black, look at these..."

"Brother Li, I am a ghost, not a dog, I don't eat these things."

"Okay, then forget it."

The above is the conversation between Li Xuanzu and Dahei in the early hours of the morning.

"Li Xuanzu, explain yourself, what exactly is this pile of rotten flesh?" Fu Yu's good mood after waking up was completely gone, and the series of frights had left her somewhat mentally exhausted.

"I'm sorry, Sister Fu Yu, it was me." Qian Li got off the cargo box and looked at Fu Yu cautiously.

"You did this? No way?" Fu Yu looked at Qian Li's expression but didn't show her bad mood.

But it's impossible for Fu Yu, an ordinary person who has just become a psionicist, to believe that a little girl who is a head shorter than her could have destroyed that number of second-tier zombies.

“Qian Li has already absorbed the new spirit core; this is the result of last night’s experiment,” Li Xuanzu explained from the side.

Fu Yu glared at Li Xuanzu in surprise.

It seems like he's blaming Li Xuanzu for making a young girl go through a physical fight, or perhaps he's annoyed because Li Xuanzu has put on this disgusting scene again.

Li Xuanzu touched his nose, feeling somewhat embarrassed, and then fell silent.

Seeing this, Fu Yu didn't say anything more, and sighed, "Sigh, help me absorb the spirit core."

Li Xuanzu responded and took the spirit core to wait aside.
