Departure is always sad, let alone permanent farewell, but life must go on, time moves, and the path must be walked.
The death of Pan Dadao faded slowly over time.
Every few years, Zhang DaoMing would go to his grave, carrying a jug of new wine, placing it in front of the tomb, and then starting to chatter.
"Brother Dadao, on this road of life, you sneaked away first, but there's no need to hurry, I'll come along shortly. When the time comes, if you've reincarnated into a young master of some prestigious family, you must take good care of me!"
He picked up the jug of wine again, "Consider this jug my gift to you in advance."
The wine jug opened, pouring wine down.
New wine paired with an old grave.
It seemed there was no one left in the Blue Sky Sword Sea, neither in the Sword Sea nor on the Immortal Sword Peak, no cultivators could be seen.
Those who left had left, those in seclusion remained so, now there was only this desolate atmosphere.
The Big Yellow Dog sat in the Sword Forest, fully taking on the role of a security guard, guarding the now extremely small cocoon, waiting for Chen Xia to break out of it.
It waved its paws, calculating carefully, it should have been exactly two thousand years, which reminded it of what the Third Elder had said.
That after a thousand years, if Chen Xia still hadn't broken out of the cocoon, he would personally come to move it away.
But no one had been seen coming!
The Big Yellow Dog snorted in disdain, that little old man was just trying to frighten the dog.
Before its train of thought settled, abrupt footsteps sounded from within the Sword Forest, crisp at first, then very heavy, appearing behind the Big Yellow Dog.
"After a thousand years, as I said." A low voice sounded.
The Big Yellow Dog's body stiffened, if it had its past temperament, it would have started kowtowing and begging for mercy by now.
But this wasn't its business now, so the Big Yellow Dog swallowed, plucked up courage, and said extremely carefully.
"I know you said it, but the problem is Chen Xia still hasn't come out."
"What's that got to do with me?" The Third Elder disdainfully spoke, looking at the cocoon, continuing, "The Blue Sky Sword Sea gave him two thousand years' time by the Sword Forest Spring, that was already extremely generous, how could he continue staying here now when the Sword Sea's spiritual energy is insufficient?"
It had to be said, the Third Elder's temper had mellowed quite a bit over these two thousand years, actually willing to explain these things to the Big Yellow Dog.
In the past, he would have just started attacking.
"But he still hasn't broken out of the cocoon, could you give a few thousand more years leeway?" The Big Yellow Dog abjectly pleaded.
The Third Elder's eyebrows furrowed, "Who the hell can I give a few thousand years' leeway, who can give the Blue Sky Sword Sea a few thousand years' leeway?!"
"I understand, I understand." The Big Yellow Dog hurriedly waved its paws, rummaging behind it for a moment, taking out a not very big pouch and handing it to the Third Elder, a grin stretched across the dog's mouth.
"Just some spirit stones, let's talk nicely."
The Third Elder deeply cast it a look, suddenly recalling what the Old Fisherman had said.
Since his youth, this Big Yellow Dog had been lingering at the entrance of the Sword Forest, having lived for who knows how many great eras. Following reason, it should be quite a formidable being.
After all, age brings wisdom, old dogs can't be underestimated!
But this Big Yellow Dog was an exception. Having lived for so long, it had never been heard that he was very powerful.
It was hard to say if it really lacked strength or was hiding its strength, so for so many years, apart from Qiong Qi, no one had provoked it.
But judging from the Qiong Qi incident, this Big Yellow Dog was truly powerless.
The Third Elder really couldn't be bothered with it. He casually slapped away the pouch, impatience seeping into his tone.
"Hurry up and scram, this concerns the Blue Sky Sword Sea, it's not something your couple of sentences can dismiss. If I really lose my patience later, both you and Chen Xia will have to get lost."
"Don't rush, don't get angry, we can talk nicely." The Big Yellow Dog was far too nervous, even its paws were shaking.
"No more." The Third Elder's expression darkened as he lightly pointed a finger down at the Big Yellow Dog.
Immense aura erupted instantly.
The Big Yellow Dog's body suddenly smashed heavily into the ground, shattering large patches of earth, suffering unspeakably.
The Third Elder paid the Big Yellow Dog no more attention, walking towards the cocoon with heavy steps.
"Don't." The Big Yellow Dog's pained whisper came, its paws scrabbled forward helplessly, still trying to stop him.
The Third Elder was already face to face with the cocoon, brows knitted, letting out a disdainful snort.
"Pretentious thing."
He raised his hand, aimed straight at the cocoon, brilliant light flashing above it, about to erupt.
"Don't!"
A roar, the Big Yellow Dog's eyes emitted red light, its figure actually charged out from the shattered pit in an instant, with afterimages crashing towards the Third Elder.
"Seeking death." The Third Elder coldly snorted, the hand aimed at the cocoon instantly turned towards the oncoming Big Yellow Dog, straight at its head.
The Third Elder crooked his finger, dense spiritual light flashing on it, carrying a berserk restless aura, about to shoot out!
Just the aura pressure caused the Big Yellow Dog's skin to ooze blood, splitting inch by inch.
The spiritual energy on the fingertip swelled again, exceptionally dazzling!
Boom!
The spiritual energy let out a huge bang as it shot out.
Just the ferocious airflow stirred up the void, tearing through the cloud layer.
The Third Elder had not held back this move!
The cocoon suddenly shuddered once, without any summons.
The heaven and earth, the cloud layer, stalled at this moment.
The spiritual energy dispersed into smoke, as if it had never appeared in this heaven and earth.
The Third Elder turned back, the cocoon had already cracked open a hole, from which stretched out a slender, pure white hand.
The white hand slowly retracted back into the cocoon, tapping lightly on it with a crackling sound, spiderweb-like cracks unfurling on the cocoon.
Bang!
It shattered open in an instant.
"It seems you didn't learn your lesson from Qiong Qi."
A bland voice.
An absolutely pure and white figure stood right in the center of the cocoon, growing long, translucent wings on his back.
The Third Elder's pupils constricted, "Chen Xia?!"
He felt an extremely powerful bloodline pressure emanating from Chen Xia, like a higher lifeform looking down on him.
Chen Xia took a step forward, slowly walking out, his consciousness withdrawn.
Having added two thousand points to strength, it was comparable to a quasi-Boundary Crossing Realm cultivator's strength.
"Little Three, you're still so unpleasant."
Chen Xia slowly approached him, softly chanting.
"Is this what you can call me?!" The Third Elder angrily roared, just about to raise his hand.
But Chen Xia had already reached his front, the absolutely pure and white fingers pointed at the space between his eyebrows.
"Go."
A bland voice.
Yet the scenery around the Third Elder kept changing. By the time it settled, he had already fallen into the pit.
Boom!
A hundred meters of earth overturned.
Chen Xia was already standing before him, the absolutely pure and white, slender figure standing there, the translucent wings spread open, blocking the light, just looking blandly at the Third Elder like this.
"Buddha!"
The Third Elder angrily roared, a towering Buddha image rising from the ground, like a majestic mountain range, its aura astounding!
Today, a huge conflict erupted in the Blue Sky Sword Sea.
The towering Buddha image sagged and fell.
The Sword Sea trembled.
It took the Sect Leader, who had been in seclusion for two thousand years, personally taking action, divine light subduing supremely, to stop this conflict.
It was hard to say who won.
Only knowing that after this battle, Chen Xia's combat strength formally stepped into the level of the Supreme Elder.
ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
ap a wealthy young lady? Or else I'll be eliminated by the system? Ye Feng, who awakened the Kidnapper System, originally wanted to live a peaceful life but never imagined he would become a kidnapper of young women. However, after some time, he discovered that all the girls the system ordered him to kidnap were far from ordinary. "Big brother Ye Feng~ You've kidnapped my heart, and now you're not allowed to leave me ever again~" "Ye Feng~ You kidnapped me back then, now it's my turn to capture you♡" "Little Feng, you're mine! You can only be mine!" "Ye Feng, none of them deserve you. Only I love you the most♡" ... This is madness, they've all gone mad! Wait, what? Why are all the girls I kidnapped yanderes?!
. As long as he maintains the villain image and follows the plot to the grand finale, he can obtain generous rewards and return to the real world. So Gu Chen'an entered the role and began to act as a scumbag villain, but who would have expected that the female leads could hear his inner thoughts. Miss Su from the Su family was shocked: "I originally thought Gu Chen'an was a scumbag, but I didn't expect he turned out to be a gentleman! What? You said I have to call off the engagement? I definitely won't, I'll piss you off!" Bai Yuan Tian was dumbfounded: "Young Master Gu is usually unreasonable and a complete brat, but he actually calls me little sweetie in his heart? What, Young Master Gu even said he likes me?" As the female leads' images collapsed more and more, the plot also collapsed with it. Gu Chen'an looked at all this chaos. "Ladies, don't aggro me, if you keep this up the male lead really will stab me, I still need to survive to the grand finale!"
young master of the Shen family—a figure of immense power and wealth beyond measure—and awakened the "Destined Ultimate Villain System"! His starting scenario? Running into his icy fiancée who shows up with a mountain-descending divine doctor to break off their engagement. The divine doctor arrogantly taunts: "What does your Shen family have besides a bit of stinking money? You're not even worthy of tying Qingxue's shoelaces!" Shen Fei just smiled. He completely defied the usual script: "Fine, I agree to break off the engagement. Also, notify the finance department to withdraw all investments from the Su family." Minutes later, with its capital chain severed, the Su Group teetered on the brink of bankruptcy! The once aloof and proud ice queen CEO was thrown into utter panic. That very night, she went to Shen Fei's villa, casting aside all dignity to beg and plead desperately... From then on, in this world teeming with Sons of Destiny, Shen Fei embarked on a path of extreme dimensional suppression! A mountain-descending divine doctor? Peerless medical skills? Shen Fei: "Reporting you for practicing medicine without a license! I'll gladly take your ancient medicinal cauldron and twin sister assassins." The Crooked-Smiling Dragon King? Commanding a hundred thousand soldiers with a single order? Shen Fei: "Illegal assembly and suspected treason! Let a fleet of attack helicopters sanitize the area and teach you what the state apparatus really means!" A reborn tycoon? Knows all the golden opportunities of the next decade? Shen Fei: "A trillion in capital to reverse and pump the stock market, making you blow your margin and jump on the very first day of your rebirth!" What Chosen Ones? What bearers of Heavenly Fortune? In Shen Fei's eyes, they're all just chives (i.e., suckers/marks) waiting to be harvested! Shen Fei: "Sorry, but as the Destined Ultimate Villain, I don't play by the rules of honor. I only play the game of dimensional suppression."
