Shi Dingyan's expression turned quite serious, as if he had thought of something. "If I'm not mistaken, it's... that person has returned."
"That person?" Shen Qian was even more puzzled. "Which person?"
“Xu Nian,” Shi Dingyan slowly uttered a name.
"Xu Nian...the second disciple of Duke Yanshan?"
Shen Qian searched his memory and quickly found the name, but he discovered that he knew very little about the other person, or rather, very little about Liu Changqing.
Apart from knowing that the other party had gone overseas many years ago and disappeared without a trace, he knew almost nothing else.
Is he very strong?
But seeing Shi Dingyan's solemn expression, Shen Qian realized something and immediately asked.
“Strong?” Shi Dingyan shook his head, his expression becoming complicated as if he had thought of something. “That word doesn’t accurately describe him. He… is a complete monster.”
...
On the highest tower in Shanghai.
The setting sun was also blood-red.
A young man was pacing back and forth in the center. Although his face was calm, his disordered steps revealed his inner turmoil.
"Third Senior Brother!"
At a certain moment, accompanied by a loud shout, a figure landed.
"Third Senior Brother, I've tried my best, but that Shi Dingyan..."
Ji You, whose face still showed resentment, landed and walked up to the pacing youth, but was interrupted by a wave of his hand as soon as he opened his mouth.
"I already know, and this is not your fault."
Guo Zhouyuan's expression was not good. He took the coffin of the God of Burial from Ji You's hand, and after examining it briefly, he said coldly, "What a Shen Qian! He really doesn't take my Plum Garden seriously at all!"
"Third Senior Brother, could we ask Master to intervene this time? We can't let Wang Shuo's fate be tainted by the karma from before his sinking..."
Ji You expressed his concerns.
With the "Creation" elixir, it's not impossible to save Wang Shuo, but absurdly, Wang Shuo, who died before Shen Qian, would in turn owe Shen Qian another life.
"The teacher can't help, but we can't rely on 'fate' anymore."
Guo Zhouyuan shook his head.
"Then what do we do?" Ji You was taken aback. "Are we really just going to watch our junior brother die?"
"He won't die."
A hoarse voice suddenly rang out from behind Ji You, carrying a creaking, grinding sound that seemed to come from hell, sending chills down one's spine.
Ji You suddenly turned around and realized that there was another person at the top of the tower, or rather, there was already one person there.
Ji You, however, remained completely unaware of the other party's presence.
He sat cross-legged by the tower, facing the setting sun. A black cloak covered his entire body, making it impossible to see his face.
Perhaps sensing Ji You's gaze, the figure turned slightly to the side, revealing the face hidden beneath the cloak, and even showing a hint of a "smile".
"The sunset in the human world is still more beautiful, Ji You, don't you think?"
"Second...Second Senior Brother?!"
Upon seeing the face clearly, Ji You's genitals clenched violently, and he couldn't help but cry out.
If you listen closely, you'll notice that Ji You's voice was unconsciously trembling slightly.
