The primordial chaos has arrived, and you have to choose the crow at the start.

"I think this child is quite good. Does he have a name?"

"Probably not, considering his mother died so quickly."

Li Shuangyan looked at the fetus in the swaddling clothes. She fed it with spiritual energy every meal, forcibly preserving the fetus's innate life force.

With this breath, one can digest spiritual energy, which will have endless uses in future cultivation.

"How about we give him a name?" Li Shuangyan suggested, looking at the child.

"Brother Chen, I heard you're a college student, why don't you name him?"

Should we take one, and then follow the cause and effect to harm him?

Chen Geng shook his head directly: "You picked it up yourself, so you should take it yourself."

Li Shuangyan became interested. She thought about it for a whole day and night, and finally decided that the name Bai Ren was good.

"I hope he can be more patient and endure everything. Only those who can endure can live the longest."

She glanced at Chen Geng discreetly and tentatively asked, "Your surname is Chen?"

"No, I'll take your surname."

Chen Geng didn't turn his head, and a boy named Li Bairen followed him.

Ships travel very slowly at sea, unlike on land. They have to cross the South China Sea and the Western Sea, and time on board is measured in "years".

Because he was nourished by spiritual energy for many years, Li Bairen was able to babble when he was only one month old.

When he was three months old, he was able to communicate with people without any problems.

At the age of one, Li Bairen was able to recite various Marxist books from memory.

Why carry all this? Because Dong Xiaomiao, that tagalong, has followed us.

She maintained contact with Li Shuangyan throughout the journey and boarded the ship in the eighth month.

"Old Chen, you actually had a child with someone else behind my back."

Her lips trembled, and tears instantly soaked the entire deck of the ship.

The effect is enormous; now, countless dragons and koi fish are following the ship around.

  

Any significant storms or waves were dispersed, and no one dared to approach; this was an immense opportunity.

Li Bairen was already seven years old when he was only one year old. In addition to reading, he also interacts with marine creatures.

Occasionally, he would secretly peek at Chen Geng, the man who often accompanied his adoptive mother. He always stood at the bow of the boat, gazing at the sea, as if there was something in the sea.

Time flies. On this day, Li Bairen was seven years old, but he looked like he was fourteen or fifteen.

In this era, he is already able to marry and have children.

When he got tired of playing with the dolphins and returned to the boat, he found the man standing at the bow, gazing at the ocean.

"Uncle Chen, what are you thinking about?"

Although Li Bairen was young, he was exceptionally precocious and initiated a conversation with Chen Geng for the first time.

Chen Geng looked back at him, then turned his head away to look at the distant horizon.

"I think there are always some people who, for their own selfish interests, will not hesitate to use others to achieve their own goals, and will stop at nothing to gain benefits."

Upon hearing this, Li Bairen replied with an insight completely out of character for his age: "Isn't this normal?"

"I've known all along that everyone is using others. Using others can give them a sense of security, they can give them love, and some people are just doing it for money."

He had witnessed far too much deceit and treachery on this deck since birth.

"Yes, you're right. I think it's normal too. These exploits have at least promoted the development of the world."

"The problem is, these 'people' who want to gain something are using me."

Chen Geng confided in the child, asking, "So what should I do?"

"I will influence them," Li Bairen said without hesitation. "I will make them realize their mistakes, correct them, and stop taking advantage of me."

"Reform?" Chen Geng shook his head: "Reform is useless. Once a person has an obsession, they can never change it. Even if they are reformed for a while, they will eventually revert to their old ways."

"So... I will choose to kill them."

"Only when the danger is gone will the world be stable."

Li Bairen disagreed and wanted to use his knowledge to change Chen Geng's mind.

On the deck at this moment, a fallen emperor and a crown prince with an uncertain future were coincidentally discussing the way to govern the world.

The two held their own opinions during this debate, and no conclusion was reached.

Little did they know, the six Ding and six Jia gods surrounding them were breaking out in a cold sweat.

"Who is this person, actually teaching His Majesty the art of rulership?"

General Ding Si broke out in a cold sweat: "If he incites His Majesty's bloodlust, then the Heavenly Court will be doomed in 129,600 years."

The Jiazi Divine General murmured, "Fortunately, His Majesty's mind has not been changed. After all, this is also part of the tribulation. We shouldn't think too much about it."

"How can you not think about so much?" Dinghai the Divine General scolded.

"That kid doesn't seem like a good person at all. It's best to get rid of him from His Majesty's side as soon as possible. It's a pity we can't interfere. After His Majesty finishes his tribulation, we'll have to find a reason to kill him to eliminate any future trouble..."

As he was speaking, suddenly, the young man at the bow of the boat turned his head and stared straight at General Dinghai.

Dinghai, the divine general, panicked and hurriedly said, "Something's wrong. It seems like he can see me?"

He didn't believe it and took two steps to the left and right, and Chen Geng's gaze followed him.

"broken!"

Dinghai, the divine general, was about to dodge, but the figure had already reached out and grabbed him.

"Who do you think you are, daring to speak ill of me under the sun, and even attempting to kill me?"

With a slight squeeze of his five fingers, the true fire of the sun instinctively ignited, and the Dinghai God General was crushed into ashes, a wisp of his true spirit returning to the Investiture of the Gods.

Chen Geng then glanced at the remaining eleven divine generals: "Those who don't want to die should think before they speak next time."

Many of the six Ding and six Jia had no choice but to retreat. What kind of ability does this person have? He's incredibly audacious.

If he weren't with His Majesty, they would definitely have asked the Water Official Emperor to execute him!

But once the Six Ding and Six Jia departed, more trouble arose.

A few days later, towering waves suddenly rose on the sea.

"Ships ahead, get out of the way immediately! By order of the King, passage through this area is prohibited!"

A celestial water demon roared on the ocean, controlling the wind and waves with the power to capsize ships at any moment.

"Oh no! The sea god is angry!"

The people on the ship panicked. Some immediately set out offerings of fruit, while others kowtowed and confessed their sins.

The siren came aboard the ship, and with just a glance, everyone knelt down.

Only four people did not kneel down.

Li Shuangyan and Li Bairen stood with their knees straight and motionless.

Chen Geng remained calm. Dong Xiaomiao wanted to kneel, but when she realized that Chen Geng wasn't kneeling, she immediately understood.

We're safe now, don't panic.

"How dare you four mortals! Why do you not kneel before me!"

The siren's eyes blazed with fury: "I am a mermaid immortal! Do you believe I'll rip you all apart right here and now?"

"Oh, I'm so scared~"

Dong Xiaomiao shielded Chen Geng in front of her, put her hands on her hips, pointed at him, and said in a sarcastic tone, "What a powerful monster!"

Dong Xiaomiao is still the same person; she might not dare to fight, but she'll never lose an argument.

"You human girl, how dare you insult me!"

The sea monster reached out to suppress Dong Xiaomiao, but Li Bairen stepped forward and tried to reason with the sea monster.

Aunt Dong treated him very well, and he couldn't let others bully her.

"Senior, what you're doing is wrong."

"It is wrong to bully the weak. You should know that if you bully the weak today, there will be someone stronger than you who will bully you in the future."

"If I were you, I wouldn't do that. Even if we kneel down, what would you gain, senior?"

Is he an idiot? Having been in a high position for so long, has he forgotten the bloodshed and barbarity of the lower classes? Chen Geng glanced at Li Bairen, thinking that he would have to teach him how to stop the fighting with killing today.
