For a past promise, Xiao Chen makes a powerful return, becoming the personal bodyguard to a beautiful CEO. He sweeps aside all enemies, forging his own legend as a true king!
He climbs to the...
"good."
Xiao Chen looked at Wang Pingbei and nodded.
It won't take much time to dig a hole and bury the body.
Moreover, he also has to think about what to do next.
Should I take a stroll in Tianjueyuan or go directly to Tianwaitian.
And then... should I contact Kyuubi?
After getting Xiao Chen's permission, Wang Pingbei dug a hole in the ground with a knife, put the old man's body in it, and buried it.
Xiao Chen sat nearby, smoking a cigarette, and did nothing.
He and Qingyun Tower were enemies, so it was already good enough that he allowed Wang Pingbei to bury the body.
"Let's not contact the Kyuubi for now. And the old fortune teller... I guess I won't be able to contact him even if I get here."
Xiao Chen thought about it and made a decision.
He took out the water essence, placed it in his palm and looked at it with a smile.
I have to say that among the five elements, the essence of water... is the most beautiful.
It is like a crystal ball, and there is a layer of water vapor on the surface. In the sunlight, colorful light flashes from time to time, and it is crystal clear.
"The essence of the five elements has finally been gathered together..."
Xiao Chen took out the essence of fire and other things. The more he looked at them, the happier he became, with his mouth grinning widely.
After Wang Pingbei buried the body, he turned his head and saw the five elements of essence in front of Xiao Chen. He was stunned for a moment. What were these?
Then he reacted and his eyes widened.
That was the water spirit, he recognized it.
The other four...could they be the spirit of fire, the spirit of wood, the spirit of metal, and the spirit of earth?
Xiao Chen has gathered the essence of the five elements?
How is that possible!
Qingyun Tower is not complete yet, and it seems that there are only two types so far!
"You...you have gathered all the essences of the five elements?"
Wang Pingbei had some guesses, but still couldn't help but ask a question.
"Well, there were originally four of us, and now that we've found the Water Spirit, we're all complete."
Xiao Chen smiled and nodded.
"You...you really want to build a divine foundation?"
Wang Pingbei’s eyes widened even further.
"Of course, otherwise why would I collect the essence of the five elements? For fun? For collection?"
Xiao Chen was in a good mood and was willing to talk more with Wang Pingbei.
“…”
Wang Pingbei remained silent, feeling very uneasy.
"You are the first person to know that I have gathered the essence of the five elements."
Xiao Chen thought of something and said it again.
"This is my biggest secret. Now that you know it... do you think I will let you live?"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Wang Pingbei's face changed drastically: "No, I know nothing, I didn't see anything..."
"Haha, okay, I was just kidding."
Xiao Chen saw his reaction and smiled.
"But what I said about you being the first to know is true..."
"I... I don't know, I have forgotten, I am blind..."
Wang Pingbei still shook his head.
“…”
Xiao Chen didn't know whether to laugh or cry, but this guy was quite interesting and knew how to handle things.
As for this guy being afraid of death... he didn't despise him at all. After all, everyone is afraid of death.
If you want to live, don't be shabby.
Even the old guy who was just buried in the ground is afraid of death and wants to surrender, right?
"Let's go."
Xiao Chen collected the essence of the five elements and stood up.
"Going to...Tianwaitian?"
Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"No, I plan to take a look around Tianjueyuan. I heard there are many opportunities here."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Take a walk in Tianjueyuan?"
Wang Pingbei's expression changed again.
“It’s dangerous here!”
"I know."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"This place is known as 'a place where 100% of people die without a single chance of survival'. We dared to come here because we knew a secret route that was relatively safe. But even so, we also suffered losses, including the loss of a strong man."
Wang Pingbei was afraid that Xiao Chen didn't know how dangerous Tianjueyuan was, so he spoke hurriedly.
"There are some restricted areas here. Even the ancestors of our Qingyun Tower dare not enter easily..."
"I know."
Xiao Chen nodded again.
"You know, we still have to hang out in Tianjueyuan?"
Wang Pingbei couldn't figure it out. What he actually wanted to say was, if you want to die... don't drag me to die with you!
"Well, just take a stroll. We won't go to those restricted areas."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"But there are many restricted areas. You don't know they are restricted areas until you enter them..."
Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen and said seriously.
"If you want to go to Tianwaitian, I can take you there, but if you want to hang out in Tianjueyuan, I...I'm sorry I can't accompany you."
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. Was he really that scared?
"Excuse me? Are you sure? Don't forget the poison in your body."
“…”
Wang Pingbei's face changed.
"Don't worry, would I joke about my own life? Not only are you afraid of death, but I am also afraid of death."
Xiao Chen said.
"If there's any danger, we'll retreat...You're not weak either, and I wanted you to take me to the Outer Heaven, so how could I kill you?"
"It's really dangerous here, I..."
Wang Pingbei wanted to say something else.
"Now, your life is in my hands, not my life in your hands, so... you have to listen to me, right?"
Xiao Chen interrupted Wang Pingbei with a slightly cold voice.
“…”
Wang Pingbei didn't dare to say anything.
"Let's go. This little guy can not only find treasures, but also detect danger in advance. As long as there is danger, we will retreat immediately."
Xiao Chen held the spiritual root of heaven and earth and walked forward.
"Tianjueyuan is very dangerous, and Tianjue Land is also very dangerous. The fact that I can come to Tianjueyuan from Tianjue Land is enough to prove something."
Wang Pingbei looked at Xiao Chen's back, gritted his teeth, and followed him.
He had no choice.
"You have nothing to do anyway, so tell me about Tianwaitian and Qingyun Tower..."
Xiao Chen took out a cigarette and threw one to Wang Pingbei.
"What's this?"
Wang Pingbei took it and felt a little surprised.
"Isn't there any outside the world?"
Xiao Chen was surprised.
"No."
Wang Pingbei shook his head.
"Okay... this is a cigarette. Come, I'll teach you."
Xiao Chen demonstrated and lit the fire.
“Ahem…”
Wang Pingbei took a puff and choked to tears.
"hehe."
Xiao Chen smiled upon seeing this, it was indeed like this when smoking for the first time... This thing didn't differentiate between the strong and the ordinary people.
“It tastes bad…”
Wang Pingbei was a little puzzled. Why did Xiao Chen look so comfortable despite this strange and spicy taste?
"Smoke it a few more times and you'll get used to it."
Xiao Chen said casually.
"don't want."
Wang Pingbei shook his head and threw it on the ground.
Xiao Chen ignored him and continued smoking leisurely.
"Tell me about the situation in Qingyun Tower first. The last time I heard about Qingyunzi, he seemed to be at the eighth level of the Immortal Foundation Establishment. How is he now?"
"It should still be the eighth heaven."
Wang Pingbei replied.
"Should I? Aren't you from the same sect? And both of you are geniuses, but you don't even know what realm he is in?"
Xiao Chen frowned.
"We are from the same school and both are geniuses, but the geniuses of Qingyun Tower are divided into two levels. One level is Qingyunzi, and the other is us."
Wang Pingbei said helplessly.
“Although we are both geniuses, the difference between us and him is like the difference between mud and clouds… Let alone us, even some seniors in the sect, who are not as strong as him, are polite and even respectful when they see him.”
"Is it so awesome?"
Xiao Chen was surprised. Qing Yunzi's status in Qing Yun Tower was higher than he had imagined.
"Well, if nothing unexpected happens, Master Qingyun...Qingyunzi will take over Qingyun Tower in the future."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"Several ancestors are very optimistic about Qing Yunzi and say that he is the future hope of Qing Yun Tower..."
"Why is Qing Yunzi thinking about transforming an immortal item into a divine item?"
Xiao Chen thought about it and asked.
"I'm not sure about that. This was brought up half a year ago, and it's considered a secret... Qingyun Tower mobilized its connections and various resources to find the Five Elements Essence for Qingyunzi, and at the same time dispatched us. One reason is that we are quite strong, and the other is that it can be kept secret."
Wang Pingbei said.
"In other words, the outside world doesn't know that Qing Yunzi wants to transform the immortal item into a divine item?"
Xiao Chen raised his eyebrows and asked.
"Yes, I don't know, but... the various forces are complicated and intertwined. Even if it is a secret, it may not be spread out. Someone with ulterior motives will definitely know it."
Wang Pingbei hesitated and said.
"Nowadays, Qingyunzi rarely leaves Qingyun Tower. He is either in seclusion or communicating with several ancestors... In addition to preparing for the Divine Product Foundation, it is also for safety."
"For safety? What do you mean?"
Xiao Chen's heart moved.
"Someone wants to kill him?"
"Yes, the current Qing Yunzi can only be regarded as a threat, not enough to make those big guys afraid, but once he builds his divine foundation, it will be different."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"So, these big guys want to take down Qing Yunzi before he grows up..."
"I see. A genius who has not grown up is nothing."
Xiao Chen smiled.
"In the eyes of a few people, Qing Yunzi has not yet grown up."
"Yes."
Wang Pingbei nodded.
"In fact, even in Qingyun Tower, it is not 100% safe. Half a month ago, Qingyunzi was assassinated. The people who did it... were strong men in Qingyun Tower, two senior brothers."
"People from Qingyun Tower, killing Qingyunzi?"
Xiao Chen was surprised, and then thought of something.
"Are they not from the Holy Heaven Sect?"
"Do you still know about the Holy Heaven Sect?"
Wang Pingbei said in surprise.
"Of course I know. Not only do I know, I have also killed a great master of the Holy Heaven Sect."
Xiao Chen said.
"Yes, the Holy Heaven Sect is not only active in the Heaven Beyond Heaven, but also in the Mother Realm..."
Wang Pingbei thought for a moment and said.
"It is said that these two uncles are from the Holy Heaven Sect... This matter has not been spread widely, and only a few people know about it. I found out about it by chance."
"How was it resolved? Was Qing Yunzi injured?"
Xiao Chen asked curiously.
"No, they said Qing Yunzi killed them all by himself... This is also the reason why I am not sure about Qing Yunzi's realm. I suspect that he may have entered the ninth heaven, or he may have some hidden card."
Wang Pingbei shook his head.
"Ninth level of immortality..."
Xiao Chen's heart sank. The last time he heard it, Qing Yunzi might be at the eighth level of the immortal realm.
Now, is it possible to reach the Ninth Heaven?
The Ninth Heaven is the highest realm of immortal foundation building, and it is absolutely extremely powerful.
But think about it again, he is much stronger than before, so why can't Qing Yunzi be stronger?
When he builds his divine foundation, what about the eighth and ninth levels of the immortal level... everyone here is garbage!
"You are also a fairy-level god-level person?"
Wang Pingbei thought of something and asked curiously.
"No, I haven't established my foundation yet."
Xiao Chen said casually.
"What? You haven't established your foundation yet?"
Wang Pingbei's eyes widened in shock.
