At eighty, the Holy Sect's enchanting woman aided in achieving longevity.

Chapter 22 The Five-Year Promise! A lone figure, sword in hand, shatters the joyous banks of the Heh

"Brother Changsheng!!"

A series of hurried and flustered footsteps.

Mu Qingwan's somewhat haggard figure, with her hair slightly disheveled, rushed to the mouth of the canyon in an instant.

She stood there, her slender hands covering her red lips, looking dazed.

Large, glistening tears welled up in her eyes.

"Brother Changsheng!"

She let out a mournful cry that sounded almost like a dream, and rushed forward without hesitation, burying her face in Chen Changsheng's broad chest.

She wrapped her two jade-like arms tightly around his waist with all her might and burst into loud sobs.

In her mind, Chen Changsheng was ambushed and killed by various powerful figures yesterday, and his fate was unknown.

She thought she would never see this man again in her life, but now, like an absurd and beautiful dream, he has miraculously reappeared before her eyes.

Chen Changsheng stretched out his large hand and gently patted the girl's soft back, letting her tears soak through his clothes.

"Qingwan, since we were hunted down yesterday, have the sect's higher-ups secretly used any insidious methods against you?" Chen Changsheng frowned slightly and asked in a deep voice with some concern.

Mu Qingwan wiped her reddened eyes, revealed a gentle smile, and shook her head softly, saying:

"Brother Changsheng, don't worry. Under the stimulation of yesterday's great calamity, Grandpa's century-old alchemy foundation was suddenly enlightened, and his alchemy skills have been completely advanced to the level of a quasi-fourth-grade divine alchemy master!"

With this esteemed position in alchemy, even if Saintess Ji is temporarily absent, the higher-ups of the Hehuan Sect wouldn't dare do anything to us. Grandpa said that after his advancement, he has the absolute ability to protect Qingwan completely.

"That's good, then I can rest assured."

Chen Changsheng's tense nerves finally relaxed, and after a brief moment of relief, he fell into a long silence.

Having survived this near-annihilation disaster, their future will undoubtedly undergo a dramatic transformation. Though they have a thousand words to say, they don't know where to begin.

"Qingwan... I should go."

Despite his deep reluctance, Chen Changsheng still uttered those cold words in a hoarse voice.

"Ah? Brother Changsheng... are you leaving already?"

Mu Qingwan's delicate body trembled as if she had been electrocuted, and her two soft little hands gripped Chen Changsheng's sleeves tightly, her beautiful eyes filled with reluctance and pleading.

But she quickly gritted her teeth, as if remembering something, and asked in a trembling voice:

"Then... what about Sister Ruxue? Yesterday, she took a fatal blow for you, what happened to her...?"

Seeing the worry in Mu Qingwan's eyes, Chen Changsheng gently pinched the girl's delicate cheek:

"Don't worry, I will personally shatter that starry sky and bring her back safely!"

Chen Changsheng stood up, took the girl's cold hand in his own, and looked into her beautiful eyes, which were brimming with tears yet still clear and bright, and said, word by word:

"Qingwan, wait for me. It will take at least three years, maybe five. Within five years, I will definitely return to the Hehuan Sect with my sword! At that time, I will make those scum pay a thousandfold for all the injustices and pain we have suffered today! I will make the entire Hehuan Sect, and that arrogant old dog Li, kneel on the ground and beg for mercy."

As soon as he finished speaking, Chen Changsheng's figure, enveloped by the last wisp of heaven-deceiving divine light, suddenly transformed into a wisp of ethereal breeze.

Under Mu Qingwan's watchful gaze, Chen Changsheng, burdened with a deep-seated hatred, plunged headlong into the boundless and magnificent wilderness with his sword drawn, without hesitation!

Chen Changsheng stared into the darkness in the distance, took a deep breath, and finally slowly turned his head.

He asked the ultimate question that had been tormenting his soul every moment since Canfeng appeared and he awakened the Pure Yang Overlord Body:

"Uncle Feng, I want to know... what exactly happened back then? What unspeakable secrets were hidden behind the mortal Chen family, which vanished overnight? You must know something, right?"

Upon hearing this question, Canfeng froze slightly, and the air in the cave seemed to freeze completely in that instant.

After a long while, he let out a long sigh and closed his eyes listlessly.

"Ahem... Young Master, it seems it's time you learned about what happened back then."

When the Lord swept across the heavens and hid in the depths of the Great Wilderness to rebuild his foundation, he used a name that shook the ages—Haotian!

Chen Changsheng held his breath, clenched his fists tightly, and listened without saying a word.

Canfeng raised his head, his eyes filled with fervor and nostalgia:

"Back then, our lord, under the alias Haotian, met your mother while traveling in the Great Wilderness. At that time, our lord was training outside and almost lost his life in the belly of a ferocious beast comparable to the Nascent Soul stage. Your mother raised her hand and annihilated the beast with a single finger, saving his life. From then on, the two became companions to slay demons and were of one mind."

At this point, Canfeng coughed violently a few times, spitting out a mouthful of black blood, but his expression grew even more arrogant:

"Later, the Lord married and had children, and that's how you came to be..."

At this moment, Canfeng's emotions fluctuated drastically, causing the temperature inside the cave to plummet to freezing.

"That year, you were only two months old when you fell into a permanent coma in the arms of the mistress. She disappeared for a period of time to find a spiritual medicine for you. When she reappeared, she was covered in wounds, and her divine essence and laws were almost completely exhausted. She stayed with you for less than ten breaths before insisting on leaving because the enemy chasing her was so powerful that he could crush all the heavens and myriad realms with a single step! Staying would only bring annihilation to the mortal Chen family."

"His Lord couldn't stop them at all. He understood that even your mother couldn't resist this forbidden existence, so he had no right to face it. When you turned eighteen, His Lord left behind what your mother had given you and ultimately chose to follow in her footsteps!"

boom!!

Chen Changsheng was struck dumb, his mind went completely blank for a moment.

Canfeng closed his eyes, and two lines of bloody tears slowly slid down from the corners of his eyes:

"You already know what happened next: the Chen family's collateral branch colluded with foreign enemies... But the fact that the Chen family's collateral branch has survived at least proves one thing: your parents weren't captured by them back then; they might still be alive somewhere in this universe!!"

A deathly silence fell over the cave. Canfeng clenched his fists so tightly that his nails dug deep into his flesh.

"Because...you are now qualified to know the core of what happened back then, young master."

Canfeng's expression suddenly became extremely solemn, and he lowered his voice to say:

"The reason the assassins relentlessly pursued you during that all-encompassing chase was because your mother possessed a supreme treasure that could drive even the gods of all realms mad—the [Eternal Life Realm of Myriad Descendants]!"

"The Realm of Immortality and Myriad Descendants?"

Chen Changsheng was stunned. Wasn't this the system?!

"Yes, this is an inviolable taboo. Even in the Upper Realm, these five words must never be mentioned in front of any outsider!"

"..."

The Realm of Immortality and Longevity!

Chen Changsheng imprinted these five words deep in the soul.

"After our Lord and his wife departed, there was no news of them for sixty years. I have only heard of the Realm of Immortals and Descendants; I have never seen it with my own eyes! If your parents are still alive in the future, this information may be your only chance to reunite with them through blood!"

The night grew longer and longer, and the hidden divine light of the Heaven-Deceiving Technique in the surrounding void began to fluctuate violently.

This is also the moment when Chen Changsheng must completely leave and go far away.

The dragon enters the sea, and the Asura is born!

The landscape of the Great Wilderness will be completely rewritten tonight!
