After all these years of twists and turns, he endured day after day, hoping for the success of his plan. He was filled with anticipation, excitement, and anxiety, fearing that something unexpected might happen along the way.
The outcome is now decided; indeed, man cannot conquer nature.
Thousands of years ago, ordinary people could attain enlightenment and ascend to heaven. There were practitioners of Qigong and Qigong practitioners in history. However, as time passed and dynasties changed, it seems that not many of them have survived.
He still vividly remembers the joy of obtaining the ancient secret technique and the excitement of plotting to kill this person. He fantasized about standing at the pinnacle of the world after succeeding, but in the end, he still failed.
He doesn't believe in fate or destiny, nor does he believe that hard work can't overcome destiny.
But when the deadly weapons appeared, bombs blasted the island, bullets pierced the chests, and fighter jets descended from the sky, the Master suddenly seemed to understand that some people are born different from ordinary people.
Zhou Cheng knew perfectly well that these divine artifacts, which were within his grasp, should not exist in this world; they were not products of this world.
But it still appeared!
Is this compensation for Zhou Cheng's years of suffering? Is it punishment for him? Is God really so unfair?
"If only I had known..."
"Never mind..."
"I was delusional..." The light in the Master's eyes went out, and he fell lifelessly into a pool of blood. A huge, black, foul-smelling hole in his neck oozed blood, which was particularly gruesome.
Footsteps sounded behind me.
Cheng Xianyi was still holding the blood-stained dagger in her hand. She noticed a pair of eyes staring at her from behind, and her heart tightened slightly. She subconsciously dropped the dagger on the ground and hid her hands behind her back.
Then she slowly turned around and looked at Zhou Cheng, who was standing in front of her.
Zhou Cheng stared intently at Cheng Xianyi's face for a moment, then looked at her hidden hand and the teacher lying on the ground. The sight of him dying with his eyes wide open made him frown slightly.
That's pretty swift and decisive, isn't it?
His skills and knife techniques are beyond question.
Zhou Cheng's gaze met Cheng Xianyi's, and he clearly saw that his ruthless fiancée panicked at a visible speed, trying to wipe her blood-stained hands on her clothes.
But then she thought, if her clothes got dirty, Ah Cheng would definitely dislike her even more.
She seemed a little flustered and uneasy, but her face remained unchanged, still with that obedient and gentle demeanor, except that she took her legs back a few centimeters.
"Ah Cheng..." She moved her pink lips, as if she wanted to explain something.
"Come here." Zhou Cheng raised his hand to her with a cold expression.
Cheng Xianyi blinked nervously, slowly walked towards him, and said weakly, biting her lip, "Acheng, I was wrong..."
"What's wrong?"
Zhou Cheng took out a wet handkerchief, forcibly pulled her in front of him, slapped her as punishment, and then bent down to wipe the dirt off the back of her hand.
"Violence is unacceptable."
"Anything else?"
"We shouldn't have made a move."
"Anything else?"
"...Shouldn't I have gotten my hands dirty?"
"Smack—"
Zhou Cheng slapped Cheng Xianyi's buttocks hard, picked her up and carried her horizontally, scolding her in a seemingly fierce tone: "It seems you still haven't realized where you went wrong."
"You're really something! After leaving me a letter, you came to Nanyue Academy all by yourself and even set a timer for me to explode!"
"All the people from the east are gathered here, and the guards and students on the island are extremely loyal to the academy. You may escape the blast radius, but can you escape this sea area safely?"
"What if the explosion hits you? You have no idea how powerful hand grenades are, yet you dared to come here alone without even consulting me!"
"The Pavilion Master of Huancheng Guige, do you still dare to take advantage of me and leave?"
