However, after these words were spoken, there was no echo in the void.
A moment later, the hoarse voice came out, "The Pavilion Master instructed that you are the last hope of the Great Thousand World. As long as you are protected, the spark of hope will be preserved."
After hearing these words, Zhou Mu was speechless.
To some extent, this statement is quite true. Therefore, Zhou Mu stopped worrying about other things and focused on doing his own thing.
...
Nanjun
As the last remaining pure land on the continent of Kyushu, the heartland of Nanjun still enjoys a relatively leisurely life and has not been greatly affected.
Xi Tianqiu, who had been missing for a long time, finally got to live the life he had always dreamed of with Wang Qing'er. They worked at sunrise and rested at sunset, living a simple, ordinary, and happy life.
If everyone lives in harmony and happiness, that's good enough.
That evening, Xi Tianqiu brought a basin of water and placed it in front of Wang Qing'er. He bent down slightly, gently picked up her jade-like feet, which were as white as scallions, and put them into the basin.
While slowly wetting the feet with clean water, she gently massaged their fair and tender jade feet.
He smiled and said, "I hope... this kind of peaceful life can continue, and that we can have a child of our own. I've already thought of a name for him: Xi Muqing."
Wang Qing'er burst out laughing and said, "You didn't even know if it was a boy or a girl, yet you gave it this name."
Xi Tianqiu said arrogantly, "Whether it's a boy or a girl, they'll all be called this name. Hmph, I'm their father, so what I say goes."
As he spoke, his throat moved slightly, and then he tilted his head back to look up at her flawless face. He couldn't help but swallow, and a smile curved his lips. "Let's get started today."
He leaned down and swallowed Wang Qing'er's delicate shouts.
Dawn broke.
It must be said that Xi Tianqiu's energy was truly abundant. Even after staying up all night, he was still full of energy when he woke up in the morning, looking quite pleased with himself.
However, this was tough on Wang Qing'er. She stayed up all night and didn't get any rest. She was constantly tossing and turning all night, so she only managed to rest a little at dusk. Soon, her soft breathing could be heard.
Seeing the person sleeping soundly beside him, Xi Tianqiu's eyes softened. He gently tucked the blanket in, got up and went outside, splashed the cold water from yesterday into the yard, and then simply swept away the dust.
Bang bang bang
Suddenly, there was a knock on the courtyard gate.
But he stopped quickly, seemingly just going through the motions, and then strode in. There were people in the courtyard. The little old man stroked his bald head and chuckled, "This humble monk thought there was no one here..."
Upon seeing Xi Tianqiu carrying a washbasin, the old man said, "You've grown hair on your head, I don't even recognize you anymore."
After Xi Tianqiu saw the old man clearly, his expression changed slightly, but he quickly recovered and walked down slowly. He pulled the old man aside and, after confirming that talking or doing anything violent here would not disturb the people resting inside, he said softly, "Sun Ni, what are you doing here?"
Sun Ni, craning his neck, peered into the courtyard. Even with Xi Tianqiu's deliberate obstruction, he could still vaguely make out a woman's features. He chuckled and said, "When you returned to secular life, the abbot sent me to find you. Now that I've finally seen you, you're mingling with a woman. How could you do this to yourself..."
"Don't talk nonsense." Xi Tianqiu's tone became stern as he said, "Besides, I have already returned to secular life and am now an ordinary person."
"Oh dear, that's too formal. Let me meet your sister-in-law quickly." Sun Ni's words were somewhat incoherent and sounded abrupt.
However, Xi Tianqiu had been with this guy for quite some time and was already used to it, so he simply pushed him out with a lot of force, then closed the door and blocked the passageway outside.
"What do you mean by this? Do you mean I can't even have a cup of hot tea after coming all this way to find you? Xi Tianqiu, I've been your senior brother for so many years, surely I have some consideration for you?"
Sun Ni's expression changed, and he tried to use his former status as the senior disciple to intimidate him. Unfortunately for him, Xi Tianqiu was no longer the insignificant character he was now.
Xi Tianqiu sneered, his gaze distant, while a muscular physique had developed, exuding a threatening aura.
Sun Ni snorted, but ultimately dared not resort to violence. He said a few words and then left.
Xi Tianqiu watched his retreating figure, his eyes growing increasingly worried. He sighed deeply. The situation in the Great Thousand World was not good. Even in the most remote Southern County of the Desolate Heaven Domain, the suffocating feeling of an impending great war was unavoidable.
If he had been full of passion before, now he just wants to live a peaceful and happy life, simply enjoying happiness.
Closing the door seemed to shut out the noise and commotion behind him, leaving him with a clear view. He stepped into the courtyard, but suddenly, a murderous aura emanated from him.
Xi Tianqiu immediately realized what was happening, and then clenched his fist. The washbasin became a weapon in his hand, and a surge of powerful spiritual energy instantly crushed out, making him feel as if he were a god.
His cultivation level had reached the Saint King realm.
As a native Saint King Realm martial artist, Xi Tianqiu is undoubtedly outstanding to have reached such a level of cultivation at such a young age.
Clearly, those who rashly attacked Xi Tianqiu did not expect the latter to have reached the Saint King realm. They immediately retreated several steps, their faces showing a hint of horror as the shadows shifted.
“Sun Ni…”
Xi Tianqiu turned his head to look at the person who had attacked him.
The look of shock on Sun Ni's face vanished in an instant, followed by a calm smile. A hint of surprise appeared in his dark eyes as he said, "I never expected that the abbot would be so insightful as to determine that your cultivation far surpasses mine. I am truly convinced of this."
"Why are you talking so much nonsense? Get out of here. You're not welcome here," Xi Tianqiu snapped in a low voice. He was afraid of disturbing Wang Qing'er, who was resting in the inner room. Otherwise, this guy in front of him would be a corpse.
Faced with such rudeness, Sun Ni was not angry. He slowly stepped forward, and only stopped when the latter revealed his murderous intent. He then took something out of his pocket.
Bang bang bang
After a series of clanging sounds, several tortoise shells fell to the ground, along with a dozen or so copper coins scattered around.
He pointed to the objects and said, “This is what my master asked me to give you. He said that only you can use the tortoise shell technique. I didn’t believe it at first, but now I’m convinced. Alright, my task is complete. You don’t need to send me away. I’ll leave on my own.”
After saying this, Sun Ni disappeared.
