Chapter 199 Fifteen Years, Reconciliation



Chen Sheng opened his eyes, and scenes emerged in his mind. After chopping Huo Honghua with a palm, the prisoners in the Black Abyss Prison were all terrified. Their fierce aura was extinguished at once. Those who should lie dormant lay dormant, and those who should keep a low profile kept a low profile and no longer jumped.

However, when it was time to take action, Chen Sheng showed no mercy. He picked out the prisoners one by one according to their cell numbers, and used his tricks to test the prisoners' tempers in order to get their chance.

Yang Huayue of Dark Blade, Yuan Zifan of the Law Enforcement Hall, and the teams of monks under their command benefited greatly and became very popular in each other's fields.

On the side of the Black Abyss Prison, Cai Rong and Wang Xianzhi were not here and did not benefit much, but the order of the Black Abyss Prison was restored and it was very safe, so the lives of the two could be considered happy.

Dafu became an alchemist as he wished. One day two years ago, he excitedly told Chen Sheng the news. Although he was a middle-aged man, he smiled like a child, with some natural and clear charm of the alchemy.

There is another person who is worried about him. Chen Lian's whereabouts are a mystery. Every time he asks about her, he only says "everything is fine", which makes people speechless.

“Boom…”

He closed his eyes, and all his emotions fell silent. He used his magic power to attack the barrier with unstoppable force, moving forward towards the great perfection of the foundation-building stage.

There was no difficulty in breaking through. His practice had always been a natural process. He was best at accumulating tremendous momentum and swooping down. Even an iron wall would be reduced to dust.

In his dantian, large amounts of spiritual clouds pressed down layer by layer, and liquid mana dripped down, pushing his aura to the peak step by step.

"Buzz"

Chen Sheng sat cross-legged on a cushion, a faint light flowing around his body. A spirit circulated in his lungs, rushing upward along the spine, like a dragon flying out of the top of his head, soaring above the Black Abyss, disturbing the heavy darkness.

"This guy has become stronger again."

The prisoners in Area A11 had a feeling and saw the sitting figure, emitting a deep and terrifying aura.

Even though that person was very restrained, from a distance, I still felt like I was being stabbed in the back.

"It's as deep as the abyss. Even if you see a little bit of it, you will feel it is unfathomable."

Then, they lowered their heads, their eyes full of calculations, but after all the calculations, everything was in vain, so they chose to be honest and low-key and lie dormant.

Over the past fifteen years, Mr. Chen has suppressed them harshly. It seems like he has done nothing, but he has actually established his authority.

They are a group of ruthless people. If you want to make them bow their heads, you can only become more ruthless and stronger.

"How could such a person be willing to stay in the Black Abyss Prison? And I met him."

Rouran felt powerless. Chen Sheng stood in front of her, cutting off her way to survival. She couldn't do anything she wanted to do.

This question is also the common thought of the prisoners in Area A11. Such a powerful person should be like a roc in the sky, roaming the universe, but he voluntarily stays in the Black Abyss Prison in obscurity, which is puzzling.

The fact is, when Chen Sheng was the elder of the medicine house, he was in power and had experienced the majesty. He had a stable temperament and was becoming more and more simple and natural.

He broke through to the great perfection of the Foundation Establishment Stage quietly without making too much exaggeration. When Da Fu and others mentioned it, they just said it was a small breakthrough and not worth mentioning.

Same day.

Two figures descended upon the Black Abyss Prison, with powerful auras, and were at the Foundation Establishment level.

The younger man was carrying a large food box in his hand, with a smile on his face and an expression of joy all over his body.

"Brother Chen..."

Chang Silu came to Area A11 and saw the ordinary figure. He hurriedly walked towards him without a trace of arrogance.

"Fellow Daoist Chen, you have figured out something."

The other person was Yuan Zifan. His attitude towards Chang Silu was no longer casual. He became very serious and it was obvious that he took Chang Silu very seriously.

"Foundation established!"

Chen Sheng glanced at Chang Silu and realized that this young man had broken through to the Foundation Establishment Stage.

A cultivator at the Foundation Establishment stage is considered a strong man in the border area. Even Yuan Zifan, his immediate superior who is always worried about him, has to take him seriously.

"If it weren't for Brother Chen, I wouldn't be able to enter the foundation-building realm."

Chang Silu was very humble and counted all the opportunities that had helped him change his destiny since he started practicing Taoism. They were all given to him by Mr. Chen.

And he didn't pay anything, but this pure kindness made him extremely grateful and respectful to Mr. Chen.

"That's your own creation."

Mr. Chen did not have much intention of seeking credit. He did pass down a secret method, but Chang Si thought that his success was due to his diligent practice.

“It’s a big day and it’s worth gathering together.”

Yuan Zifan waved his hand, put down the prepared food box, and took out many delicacies and drinks, all of which were full of inspiration and carefully selected.

Mr. Chen did not refuse the two's wishes and also invited a group of jailers. The old friends got together and the atmosphere was extremely warm.

"Congratulations."

Cai Rong was somewhat envious when he learned that Chang Silu had advanced to the Foundation Establishment Stage, but everyone has different experiences in life, so his mentality was stable and not unbalanced.

"Once you enter the foundation-building stage, the sky is high and the sea is vast."

Wang Xian exclaimed in amazement that for a jailer to build up his foundation after so many twists and turns, the amount of effort he had expended was unimaginable to ordinary people.

Fortunately, Chang Silu managed to make it through and was considered an expert in the border area.

"It's amazing, it's really amazing. If Mr. Chang knew about this, he would be so happy."

Da Fu praised him repeatedly. In comparison, Chang Silu was the most promising one among all the jailers.

With this successor, the late Lao Changtou can rest in peace.

"Everyone, don't praise me too much, or I'll become proud."

Chang Silu raised his glass and drank with Dafu and others. His attitude was friendly, even with a bit of thoughtfulness of a younger generation.

He came out of the Black Abyss Prison, and he had not forgotten the care that everyone showed him when he first arrived, so even after he had achieved the Foundation Establishment Stage, they still respected him.

"Hahaha……"

Hearing him say this, Da Fu and other old jailers laughed loudly, as if Chang Silu had never left the Black Abyss Prison, and everyone got along very happily.

After seeing this scene, Yuan Zifan decided to contribute to Chang Silu's future promotion. Such a person should not be suppressed. Allowing him to be promoted may be of greater help to him.

"One person is missing."

The jailers were chatting and laughing, but Mr. Chen was thinking of Chen Lian, a young girl who had been away from home for twenty-one years.

I don’t know what the situation is now.

On the Longtian trail, a little boy in short cotton clothes was running wildly, his cheeks rosy and with the innocence of a child.

When he looked up, he saw a beautiful woman like a lotus. She was dressed in white. Her body was very clean without a trace of dust, as if she had walked out of a painting.

"Sister Fairy, is there a palace in heaven?"

The boy's eyes lit up and he ran away excitedly, surrounding the girl and asking about strange stories.

“I don’t know.”

The woman in white hesitated for a moment, but she really couldn't imagine that scene, so she shook her head, indicating that she was powerless.

The boy opened his eyes wide, as if he had been deceived, and insisted that the woman in white knew about it.

He was a little angry. He had been so well behaved, but the other person still refused to reveal the news from heaven.

"I am just a mortal who cannot practice cultivation. It is normal for me not to know the scenes in the sky."

It was strange that when this was mentioned, the woman in white was in a very calm state of mind. She no longer had the feeling of the world falling down that she had felt fifteen years ago when she heard the truth.

Time will smooth out all intense emotions.

"Sister Fairy, I can't think straight, just admit it."

Upon hearing this, the boy's face became extremely conflicted. He grabbed his hair with his hands, then raised his head and stared at the woman in white with a pair of ignorant and innocent eyes.

Without blinking or moving, he uses his childish way to give adults a sense of oppression.

"You idiot, I called you to eat, but you couldn't hear me."

The boy got a response, but it was not from the woman in white, but from a middle-aged woman with a strong body and a fierce and sturdy aura.

She came to call the boy home for dinner.

"Miss Chen, I am sorry to bother you."

Next to the woman in white, the aunt restrained all her aggressiveness and spoke more softly.

It’s more about awe and respect than knowing etiquette.

There is a reason for this.

The "Fairy Sister" that the boy calls her is truly worthy of the title.

About fifteen years ago, their village was still very poor. There were monsters living in the waterways, causing chaos and the rivers often flooded, submerging houses and rice fields.

Then……

Miss Chen is here.

She was very tired and worried at the time, but when she saw the miserable plight of the villagers, she still gathered her strength and helped everyone.

We don’t know the details of the battle, but we know that after one night, the river turned red and the corpses of the monsters turned into pieces and washed downstream.

The whole village was shaken.

Led by the village chief, forty households and two to three hundred people went to express their gratitude, carrying gifts.

Knowing that Miss Chen had no particular plans, the village chief tried to persuade her to stay, and finally the great god stayed.

It was later confirmed that the village chief had made a wise decision.

After Miss Chen stayed, she picked up a flying sword and chopped down all the disturbing wild beasts and monsters.

With security and order in place, she led everyone to dig canals, build water wheels, and reclaim wasteland, making everyone's life prosperous.

"Go ahead."

The woman in white smiled, not too majestic, nor a serious person, but very peaceful.

"I want to stay with Sister Fairy."

The boy liked to eat, but his desire to stay with the woman in white overcame his interest in eating, and he refused to leave.

Then he encountered repression.

"You didn't get any immortal energy at all, which means you are extremely naughty and deserve to be beaten. Go away..."

The aunt was not kind to the boy. She grabbed his ears and slowly led him home.

Just at this moment.

The setting sun casts its dim and brilliant light on the rice fields that are about to mature, stretching for miles and making the skyline appear vast and long.

Children in twos and threes returned home with smiles on their faces at the urging of their adults.

The green mountains and green waters also lost their color and became quiet.

The wind blew, and the leaves rustled, as if playing a country tune.

"It's like a dream..."

Looking at this scene, the haze in the woman in white's heart suddenly dissipated.

Chen Lian, reconciled with herself.

She had not had an easy life in the past fifteen years. The existence of the Mother-Child Soul Transferring Spell had tormented her mind to pieces, and she even began to doubt the "meaning" of her own existence.

If Rouran had not cast the Mother-Child Transferring Spirit Spell, would she not even have the right to be born?

So, her role was to be a "tool"? The more she thought about it, the more upset she felt.

Sometimes when she is too sad, she will think of happy things to ease the sadness.

It is hard to imagine that the deep and dark Black Abyss Prison has become the pure land in her heart. Chen Sheng and other jailers have become the light in the darkness.

She kept every message on the Chen sign and counted them carefully: there were 1,825 of them.

On average, Mr. Chen would send her a message once every three days, asking about her recent situation. Every word was filled with concern.

This kind of love and care sometimes directly overwhelms sadness, but it also makes Chen Lian's psychology rush to another extreme.

She was a little worried. Was she being too greedy by asking for too much happiness that she didn't deserve?

After all, she couldn't practice, which meant she couldn't give back. She was like a Pixiu, who could only eat but not vomit. She was really annoying.

Amidst the repeated psychological distortions, she tried her best to make herself forget and spent more time on transforming the village.

Killing demons, digging canals, building water wheels, reclaiming wasteland, etc. are all used to fight internal friction and kill time.

It was while doing these things that she realized something: that the natural world is a whole and cannot be roughly divided.

Only when people gather together and create order can it be called the human world.

People in the singular sense may not be people anymore, but another kind of transcendent life form.

Before, she had been stuck in a dead end, pursuing her self-worth from the perspective of "tool", but... there was obviously no answer.

Life and emotions cannot be measured.

It cannot be materialized, has no standards, and can be large or small.

Judging from the 825 messages accumulated on the Chen plaque over the past 15 years, the emotions contained therein are very heavy.

She is not a weed in this world, she also has a place to belong.

It’s time... to go back!
