"Why?"
Xiao Chen was curious. In fact, he and Fatty Chen got along quite well.
Although the process of their acquaintance was not friendly, and their subsequent interactions were not friendly, he knew that Fatty Chen was really good to him.
Otherwise, he would not have dragged Fatty Chen to Longmen to be an elder, and he would not have helped Fatty Chen break through the bottleneck and enter the great perfection of Hua Jin.
"Because you two are both pretty thick-skinned."
Elder Long looked at Xiao Chen and said.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. Is that so?
Fatty Chen is thick-skinned, he agrees, but his skin... isn't that thick, right?
"Boy, I don't want you to go to the Dragon King Secret Realm, not only because you are not a member of the Dragon King, but also because of other considerations."
Elder Long looked at Xiao Chen and spoke slowly.
"Hmm? What are you considering?"
Xiao Chen was puzzled.
"More haste, less speed. You're already growing fast enough. It's time to slow down."
Mr. Long's tone was more serious.
"Like you just said, you are under a lot of pressure... This pressure does not come from the Qingyan Sect's challenge, but from yourself."
After hearing what Elder Long said, Xiao Chen fell silent.
He is under a lot of pressure, and it does come from himself.
As for the challenge from Qingyan Sect, he didn't take it seriously.
He has always believed in his own strength. Among his peers, he is invincible and can suppress an entire era!
His opponent would not be the genius of Qingyan Sect, but... that unknown existence.
That existence makes the old fortune tellers exhausted!
He didn't know what kind of existence that was, but he knew that he had to be strong, and even stronger!
Otherwise, how could he help the old fortune teller?
Invisibly, he put a lot of pressure on himself.
Even on Dragon Island, he would fight so hard!
"I know what you're thinking."
Elder Long poured Xiao Chen a cup of tea, his tone slightly softer.
"You want to help the old fortune teller, you want to protect this country... but don't forget, we old guys are here. If the sky falls, we old guys should hold it up first! We will give you time to grow, understand?"
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"It's not as serious as you think, otherwise why would I be drinking tea here?"
Old Long smiled.
"You are very strong now. I may not be your opponent, but there are still people who are stronger than me... When troubled times come, no one can stay out of trouble. Do you understand? When the nest is overturned, how can the eggs remain intact? This is not a matter of one or two people, but a matter of everyone."
“…”
Xiao Chen looked at Old Long, he really knew!
"Master Long, with my current strength, am I not qualified to know?"
"Maybe that's enough, but there are some things that shouldn't be said by me, but by the old fortune teller."
Old Long shook his head.
"So, don't ask me. Next time you see the old fortune teller, just ask him."
"good."
When Xiao Chen heard what Elder Long said, he nodded.
"I know you want to be born as soon as possible, but as the old saying goes, haste makes waste. All of this... shouldn't be put on your shoulders right away. We old guys are not extinct yet."
Mr. Long had a sip of tea.
"You can slow down a little bit and make each step more steady and practical, instead of just pursuing the realm of martial arts."
"I also thought about this last night. Am I only pursuing strength and ignoring too much?"
Xiao Chen said slowly.
"Well, it's good that you can realize it yourself... There are many ways in the world, all of which can be used for cultivation. Slowing down appropriately will be good for you."
Old Long smiled.
"That's why the old fortune teller didn't tell you."
"I see."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"I just don't want him to be so lonely without anyone to fight alongside him."
"How could there not be? Boy, you look down on us old guys too much. Aren't we worthy of fighting side by side with the old fortune teller?"
Old Long laughed and scolded.
"Don't think that just because you are strong, you can ignore us old guys!"
"I don't dare."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"Do you know where the blessed land comes from?"
Elder Long looked at Xiao Chen and asked.
"A blessed place?"
Hearing what Elder Long said, Xiao Chen was stunned for a moment.
"Isn't it a suitable place for cultivation?"
“It’s not that simple.”
Old Long shook his head.
"The thirty-six caves and seventy-two blessed lands all existed in independent spaces before. Some of them collapsed and disappeared in the long river of history... But even so, some still exist! In these places, there are often old monsters who hide in the world, and they are all very strong."
"How strong?"
Xiao Chen perked up and asked.
"Better than me."
Elder Long said slowly.
"Better than you? Not that much."
Xiao Chen frowned and said subconsciously.
"What?"
Old Long stared. This kid was really getting cocky. He really looked down on him!
After all, he is one of the top masters among those who are half a step away from becoming innate. He is one of those people who is only half a step away from becoming innate.
Moreover, with his strength, once he enters the innate realm, he will definitely not be a weak innate, but a strong one among the innates!
"Uh, that's not what I meant. I meant...are these old monsters innate?"
Xiao Chen was also a little embarrassed and spoke quickly.
"There are plenty, and they are not weak innate like Duanmu Yu."
Old Long was too lazy to argue with this kid and said.
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. What had Duanmu Yu done to offend anyone? He had been dead for so long, yet he was often looked down upon.
It is true that the strong are respected, and the weak will be despised even when they die.
"Many blessed places are closed, and they can be considered as truly hidden forces."
Elder Long looked at Xiao Chen and spoke slowly.
"When troubled times come, they can't escape... The old fortune teller has actually been looking for them lately."
Hearing this, Xiao Chen suddenly realized that this was the case.
"If I hadn't seen you were so anxious, there are some things I wouldn't have told you today... Take your time, there's still time, the sky won't fall."
Mr. Long said while drinking tea.
"Mr. Long, you have told me so much today. Then tell me more about Tianwaitian. What exactly is Tianwaitian?"
Xiao Chen asked with a shy face.
"Are you getting too far? I've already said I don't know. I just don't know."
Old Long was speechless and shook his head.
“…”
Seeing this, Xiao Chen didn't ask any more questions. Since Old Long said so, he would definitely not say anything more.
He knew these old guys too well. If he came up for a while, he would be unwelcome!
"By the way, Elder Long, when will the Dragon King's secret realm open?"
Xiao Chen thought of something and asked.
"I just told you not to be anxious, why are you anxious again? Was my words in vain?"
Mr. Long was helpless.
"There's no rush for this. We have to wait until the Eight Dragon Chiefs arrive. I'll let you know then... Before that, just do whatever you need to do."
"All right."
Xiao Chen nodded.
"Then I'll wait for your news."
"Um."
Mr. Long put down the teacup.
"If you really care about the old fortune teller, you should consider having a few little ones. He will definitely be happy."
“…”
Xiao Chen was speechless. What kind of train of thought was this? Why did he suddenly get to this point?
"Why, you haven't thought about it?"
asked Elder Long.
"Well, let's just let it take its course."
Xiao Chen coughed dryly.
"hehe."
Old Long smiled and said nothing more.
"Old Long, what is the strength of the Dragon Emperor?"
Xiao Chen looked at Elder Long, hesitated, and asked.
Fatty Chen said it was "unfathomable", but this "unfathomable" also needs an explanation, how unfathomable is it, is it ancient martial arts? Or is it cultivation?
There is a huge difference between the two, and it is what he cares about most.
"And you still say it wasn't that fat guy who said that?"
Hearing Xiao Chen's words, Old Long stared.
"I'm just curious. It has nothing to do with Mr. Chen."
Xiao Chen said hurriedly.
"The old Dragon Emperor..."
When Mr. Long said this, he looked like he was thinking.
Seeing the look on Long Lao's face, Xiao Chen became expectant and looked at him eagerly. It seemed that Lord Long was stronger than Fatty Chen and knew more.
"The Dragon Emperor...is unfathomable."
Old Long thought about it and said four words.
“…”
Hearing what Elder Long said, Xiao Chen almost vomited blood and wanted to curse.
Unfathomable?
Is this the only word these old guys know?
And... it's unfathomable, but it also takes that long to think about it?
He really thought that he could find out how powerful the Dragon Emperor was.
As a result, he was given the whole "unfathomable" appearance.
"What's wrong?"
Elder Long asked after seeing Xiao Chen's reaction.
"Nothing. I was wondering how deep the Dragon King is."
Xiao Chen shook his head.
"I don't know, it's very strong."
Elder Long also shook his head.
“…”
Xiao Chen regretted asking, it was unnecessary!
"By the way, where's the Xuanyuan Order? Do you have it with you? Let me see what it looks like."
Mr. Long changed the subject and asked.
Xiao Chen took out the Xuanyuan Order and handed it to Elder Long.
Elder Long took it and looked at it carefully: "Emperor Xuanyuan left a message saying that we can enter and exit the Heaven Beyond Heaven?"
"Um."
Xiao Chen nodded.
“I think it should have more effects than this.”
"Xuanyuan Order, I've never heard of it before."
Elder Long looked at it and said.
"See you with your sword, and the inheritance will appear... Keep it well, it will be useful one day."
"Um."
Xiao Chen put it away.
"Mr. Long, I heard you're leaving at noon?"
"Yes, I will go to see Li Bai first, and then leave Longhai."
Elder Long nodded.
"Looking for Mr. Linghu?"
Xiao Chen still likes to call him that.
"Well, we're old friends. I didn't expect it to be right under my nose."
Old Long smiled.
"Li Bai's sword was once a powerful force in the martial arts world!"
"He passed on the sword-controlling technique to me."
Xiao Chen said.
"oh?"
Mr. Long was a little surprised, then he thought of something and smiled.
"Haha, this old guy... is quite shrewd."
"What's the meaning?"
Xiao Chen was curious.
"nothing."
Old Long shook his head and said nothing more.
"Okay, you have achieved the purpose of this trip, go and do your thing."
"Okay, then I won't bother you any more... By the way, Big Fatty and the others are here too."
Xiao Chen thought of something and said.
"Yes, I understand."
Mr. Long nodded and stood up.
"I'll go meet them."
They left the room and went downstairs.
