"You know me? And you knew I would come?"
Ning Yechen sat cross-legged on the ground, staring intently at the man known as the Nameless Immortal.
He became more and more curious about the man in front of him.
Wumingxian smiled and shook his head slightly.
"I don't know you, Demon Lord."
"But I know everything that happened outside, Chaos invaded the human world, the demons unified the human world, and..."
"The Demon Lord is looking for me."
"Since you know that I came to see you, you must also know why I came."
"nature."
"Before that, please allow me to ask the Demon Lord a few questions."
"Tea, please~"
Wumingxian picked up the teapot in front of the table, brewed two cups of tea, then picked up one of the cups and handed it to Ning Yechen with both hands.
Because there was still some distance between the two of them, Wumingxian kept holding the cup and offering tea.
If a cultivator, no matter how low his cultivation is, he will definitely have no problem using the most basic spirit to control objects.
But Wumingxian couldn't even do this and could only serve tea with his hands.
He is just an ordinary mortal who is powerless.
Ning Yechen knew that Wumingxian was definitely not an ordinary mortal, but he just couldn't figure out what was so special about him...
"Go ahead."
"What do you want to ask me?"
Ning Yechen slowly stretched out his hand, and the teacup in Wumingxian's hand flew steadily into his hand out of thin air, without a drop of water leaking out.
"Excuse me, how did the Demon Lord find this place?"
After Ning Yechen took the teacup, Wumingxian asked.
A very random question.
"You mean the barrier outside?"
"That kind of thing can't stop me."
Ning Yechen replied.
When he arrived, he discovered an extremely hidden transparent barrier covering the entire paradise, which seemed to be specially set up to isolate the outside world.
In the human world, the strength of this barrier is already very extraordinary, and I'm afraid no one will discover it.
But to him, it was nothing more than a formality.
He casually broke through the barrier and stepped into it.
"I know that the barrier cannot stop you, Demon Lord."
"What I want to know is, Demon Lord, why do you know this place?"
Wumingxian knew that Ning Yechen had misunderstood what he meant, so he asked again.
What he wanted to know was how Ning Yechen found this place, not how he got in here.
"Someone took the initiative to find me and said that he had seen you here before."
Although Ning Yechen was puzzled as to why the nameless immortal asked this question, he continued to reply.
"I see…"
"Just as you have seen, Demon Lord, this place is isolated from the outside world and has never had any contact with the outside world."
"But two years ago, a man accidentally came here by boat."
"At first he wanted to stay here, and I agreed. But over time, he couldn't get used to the life here, and finally chose to leave."
"When I left, I asked him to never tell anyone about this place, and he agreed."
"Now it seems that under the temptation of fame and fortune, that person still broke his promise."
The nameless immortal spoke calmly to himself.
There was no joy, anger, sorrow or happiness in his expression or tone, as if he was an irrelevant person explaining a fact that had happened.
"Human nature is such that not everyone is tempted by it."
Ning Yechen said.
"Human nature is like this..."
The nameless immortal looked thoughtful and muttered, repeatedly thinking about Ning Yechen's words, and then nodded like a student who had learned a lesson.
This scene left Ning Yechen confused.
It is said that this nameless immortal has traveled around the human world for thousands of years, but he doesn't seem to know much about humans...
"What does the Demon Lord think of this place?"
After a moment's silence, Wumingxian picked up his teacup again, took a sip and asked.
"It's peaceful and tranquil, very good."
Ning Yechen also took a sip of the tea in his hand and said lightly.
"Oh? I didn't expect that you, as the supreme ruler of the demon world, would be interested in this kind of life among mortals?"
Wumingxian was very surprised to hear Ning Yechen's answer.
Ning Yechen put down the teacup in his hand and explained with a faint smile:
"I often eat meat every day, but sometimes I want to taste the green mountains and clear waters."
"I really didn't expect the Demon Lord to have such a refined taste..."
"Although you are a demon, you have a heart that pursues the ordinary."
"I have met many people, some of whom are in high positions and have strong cultivation, but what they pursue is higher power and cultivation."
"You are the first strong person I have ever seen who would yearn for a normal life like ordinary people."
Wumingxian put down the teacup in his hand, looked through the window at the children playing and fighting in the bamboo forest and said.
"What about you?"
"Why did you create this paradise, take in those people, and teach them skills?"
"To create a place for them to live?"
"Or are you pursuing this kind of life?"
Ning Yechen followed Wumingxian's gaze and looked out the window and asked curiously.
The Nameless Immortal shifted his gaze back to Ning Yechen, smiled and shook his head again.
“I don’t yearn for life here.”
“Whether it’s creating this place, taking in these people, or teaching them skills, it’s all just to witness a process with my own eyes.”
"Witness a process with your own eyes...?"
Ning Yechen asked with a slightly frowned brow.
"Yes."
Wumingxian nodded slightly.
"Everyone here has suffered from war or is cynical about the world. I took them in and created this place just to witness what people will be like when they have enough food and clothing and a stable life."
"Like an experiment?"
Ning Yechen asked.
He had no idea that the nameless immortal created this paradise just to witness how the people here would live and develop...
This brief introduction is like a large-scale social experiment.
As for the so-called mistaken entry into this place, it is probably that this person deliberately let him in and then let him go...
Otherwise, with the barrier of this place, it would be impossible for a mortal to accidentally enter it...!
"experiment…"
"This is the first time I've heard this word, maybe."
Hearing the word "experiment", Wumingxian felt a little curious, but did not deny it.
"This experiment is just to find an answer in my heart."
Wumingxian stared at Ning Yechen closely, his serious expression revealing a deep desire for knowledge.
"I have traveled all over the world, visited many places, met countless people, witnessed the change of dynasties, and touched the waves of time."
"Some people spend their lives chasing fame and fortune, while others only seek peace and tranquility; some people are cruel and merciless, greedy and incompetent, while others are kind-hearted and can choose to sacrifice their lives for justice without hesitation..."
“The gap between people is so huge…”
"I have traveled all over the world and seen all kinds of things, but I still have no idea..."
"Demon Lord, can you tell me what a human being is...?"
