Following in the footsteps of Guo Ce and his master's wife, Su Cheng and his two companions arrived at the place where "that person" was located.
"arrive?"
"Yes, he lives in the mountains."
"Oh, lead the way."
"......Um."
Guo Ce and the beautiful woman walked in front, looking like traitors leading the way, their smiles obsequious and their backs turned from time to time, their hesitant and coy demeanor quite comical.
Avoiding the couple, Su Cheng spoke slowly.
"Mu Chan, where is this place?"
Now that Su Cheng has reached the Nascent Soul stage, he is no longer like before, where the entire mountain was almost impossible to hide from under the dual divine senses.
There's nobody on this mountain.
However, Su Cheng was in no hurry to expose the two, and wanted to see what they were planning to do.
"On the way here, we saw Ao City. This mountain should be Zimu Mountain. I heard that a powerful demon lives there. Could it be that powerful demon who stole Master's map?"
Su Cheng smiled. He had great confidence in his investigation. Perhaps that powerful being had gone out for a stroll?
However, no matter what, Su Cheng doesn't care.
The reason for being so cautious was not because I was worried that this guy would never speak, but because the Void Blueprint was very valuable.
Compared to positioning anchor points, this void blueprint is incredibly fragile!
It would be terrible if those heartless bastards broke it!
Now that Xun Ye is dead, even though Xiao Ai has inherited the power over the space, her control over it is still far inferior to Xun Ye's...
If this void blueprint is damaged, no one can repair it, and no one can replicate it.
The so-called Iron Pot Project was also created to develop weapons to fight against the gods, but it was too far-fetched and was not favored by the vast majority of people.
Like a treasure left over from ancient times, it has become a unique and precious artifact because the person who created it has passed away or disappeared.
As the two walked into the mountains, Su Cheng listened to Su Muchan telling jokes to Dongfang Jue.
The only funny part of the joke was that Su Cheng didn't laugh, Dongfang Jue didn't laugh, but Guo Ce did.
"Is Youwei also in the Eastern Region?"
"Hmm? Didn't Master ask you to send her to help?"
【Hmm? Did I ask her to go to the Eastern Region?】
"Hmm, how did she do?"
Su Cheng also mentioned that he hadn't seen Chu Youwei for the past two days; it turns out she went to the Eastern Region for fun...
Su Cheng hadn't expected that Chu Youwei would offer to help.
The disciples are all developing in a positive direction. Qinghan is becoming more and more composed, Shiyao's reactions are getting faster and faster, and Dongfang Jue is acting more and more prudently.
It seems that after raising these disciples for a while, Su Cheng is now the only one left who's the villain...
"Thanks to Miss Youwei, otherwise there would have been heavy casualties."
"So what happened after Youwei arrived?"
Dongfang Jue remained silent. She had only intended to brush it off, but she hadn't expected her master to press her for an answer. She didn't know how to describe the current battle situation.
"Jue'er, I thought you would seek my help."
Overwhelmed with shame, Dongfang Jue said, "I'm sorry, Master. The situation is not optimistic. Jue'er has failed your expectations..."
Although she didn't wipe away her tears, Dongfang Jue's grievances were written all over her face.
However, Su Cheng was already quite satisfied. At least Dongfang Jue didn't question him about why, which was much better than before.
"It's alright, your teacher can certainly help, but Jue'er needs to know that more and more people will die. When people in this world get used to relying on others, when disaster strikes, I'm afraid they will only have one path left: to sit and wait for death."
"Jue'er, the reason I didn't take action myself is because of one thing: not enough people have died yet, and that's not enough to wake everyone up."
"I can imagine that many people are probably still hoping to make a fortune from it, or to shine in the disaster."
"Some people also think this might be an opportunity, a chance to stand out from the crowd."
"If we hold this view, the world is destined to be destroyed."
"Jue'er understands the principle of teaching a man to fish."
"You may think I'm cold-blooded, but as your teacher, it's my responsibility to take care of you. But the common people are none of my concern."
Upon hearing this, Dongfang Jue quickly offered his explanation.
"No, Master, Jue'er never thought that way!"
"Jue'er, as long as you speak, your master can help you get rid of this deadly situation. No one else will die, and no more lives will be lost."
"No, Jue'er knows this is Master's test. Please give Jue'er some more time. Jue'er will turn the situation around."
Su Cheng just smiled. This was the inevitable situation from the beginning. He never expected to change the situation, but more importantly, he wanted to change people's minds.
Simply talking about joining forces is meaningless; only by working together can we change the current situation.
"As your teacher, I believe that rather than changing the situation, what is more important now is to change our mindset. This is a natural disaster that no one can fight alone. Even I, as your teacher, need to rely on the strength of those around me."
"The black mist is just the beginning. If we can't even handle this, I'm afraid that when disaster strikes later, all living beings will only face death."
Sure enough, her master always saw further than she did, precisely because she knew so little.
“Master, Jue’er understands. Jue’er also knows that these people all have their own ulterior motives. You can’t see into someone’s heart, and it’s inevitable that there will be people who are outwardly compliant but inwardly defiant.”
After thinking for a moment, Su Cheng still came up with the same solution that had remained unchanged from beginning to end.
"They simply think that if the sky falls, someone taller will be there to hold it up. My method is to stand by and watch. Only when they feel pain and fear will they be willing to take action."
