Chapter 152 The Extraordinary Person... Feels Inferior to the County Magistrate's Son
But if such a being exists, the immortal destiny it left behind that allows one to comprehend the Eight Wonders isn't so hard to accept. Zuo Ruotong took a deep breath, then seemed to have thought of something and said:
"If the Pavilion Master can foresee the future, will there be extraordinary people everywhere after the Twenty-Four Solar Terms are discovered?"
Xu Qing chuckled upon hearing this:
"No, it was destroyed."
Upon hearing this, Zuo Ruotong felt a sudden sinking in her chest, and she froze on the spot as if struck by lightning.
"Destroyed—destroyed?"
His throat tightened, and his voice trembled almost imperceptibly, as if he had heard the most absurd words in the world: "That is the grotto-heaven left behind by the True Immortal Ziyang—a true immortal who ascended to heaven! It is a divine opportunity that can transform mortals and benefit all under heaven!"
"Such a divine object is a great blessing to all people under heaven, and an unprecedented opportunity for the mortal world. Who would destroy it?"
Why destroy it?
Zuo Ruotong couldn't understand it at all.
Seeing his discomposure, Xu Qing uttered three words calmly: "Wugensheng".
"Without roots or origins?"
Zuo Ruotong felt as if she had been frozen in place; her pupils suddenly contracted, and the color drained completely from her face.
He originally had a rather favorable impression of Wugensheng.
If the other party hadn't been known as a member of the Quanxing Demon Clan, he might have even considered becoming closer to him.
Even though Xu Qing had scolded him earlier, the little bit of admiration in his heart had not completely disappeared.
But at this moment, the three words "Wugensheng" were like ice-cold awls, piercing his heart.
It was him?
That last bit of goodwill vanished in an instant.
Zuo Ruotong opened her mouth, as if to say something, but her throat felt blocked.
He truly is a cultist, difficult to comprehend.
"Not only that, he was the Quanxing Demon among the 36 thieves, and it was Wugensheng who led the others to comprehend the Eight Extraordinary Skills."
"And all of this comes from you."
Zuo Ruotong was utterly disgusted and looked up blankly: "Me? Immortal Master, what does this have to do with me?"
Xu Qing then poured all the details of the Sanyi Gate incident, as well as information about Wugensheng, into Zuo Ruotong's mind.
"Trinity Gate...gone?!"
Zuo Ruotong murmured softly, her voice as light as a dream, but her eyes instantly became bloodshot.
A sharp pain exploded from the bottom of his heart, mixed with self-hatred for failing to protect Men Mei.
Beyond this hatred, any remaining admiration for Wugensheng had vanished, leaving only a deep-seated loathing.
He saw through Wugensheng's hypocritical face. He witnessed Chengzhen's death but stood idly by; he knew his own divine spirit was the root cause of the conflict between the Sanyi Sect and Quanxing, yet he shifted the blame onto Li Muxuan, even putting on an act of taking the fall for Li Muxuan.
But wasn't Li Muxuan already pardoned by Zuo Ruotong?
Leaving aside the fact that Li Muxuan's father was a major benefactor of the Sanyi Sect, what does it matter if a young boy is just being naughty and causing trouble?
He even gave him three chances! This has nothing to do with Li Muxuan at all; if anyone is to blame, it should be him!
A vision of the future flashed through her mind: Li Muxuan was actually being respectful and dutiful to Wugensheng. Zuo Ruotong felt a sudden suffocation, and felt a deep despair at the stupidity of this younger generation.
Immortal Undyed, how foolish you must be to bow down to such a person?
Seeing that this brat actually put himself on par with Wugensheng, Zuo Ruotong was both angry and amused.
As for rootless life—·
This Quanxing leader, whom he once admired somewhat, is now so hypocritical in this God-like perspective of the truth that it is nauseating.
His actions are truly unappealing; he actually helped a patricide, a master murderer, an entire family wiped out, and a rapist and murderer.
Animals seeking only pleasure find liberation.
Although both the whole and the part are beasts, Wugensheng places great importance on liberating himself from this beast, which made Zuo Ruotong frown.
Is this something a normal person would do?
Coupled with the heinous act of destroying Tongtian Valley, and the deep-seated hatred of annihilating the Sanyi Sect, Zuo Ruotong's disgust for Wugensheng had reached its peak.
Although he knew he was partly responsible for the downfall of the Trinity Sect, he still couldn't help but feel disgusted by Wu Genshen's hypocritical face.
What do you mean by "friends"? He can't escape involvement in the conflict between the Trinity and the Quanxing.
He killed all the disciples of the Sanyi Sect, and when trouble came, he made the unrelated disciples take the blame!
What brothers? The thirty-six thieves are either dead or wounded, and Wugensheng has never even shown his face!
Zuo Ruotong shook his head violently, his face full of shame. He had misjudged the man and actually thought of befriending him.
Xu Qing found his appearance rather intriguing.
He wasn't particularly interested in things like the Reverse Rebirth Triple Technique or the Eight Extraordinary Techniques.
To put it bluntly, these things are merely items that can replenish his inventory, but they do not benefit him personally.
For these familiar yet low-level worlds, Xu Qing only ever wanted to see which direction the plot would take.
The world of Under One Person has an absurdly low energy level.
The number of extraordinary individuals barely exceeds ten thousand, and most of them are well-connected to Zhao Dong's network, and are health-conscious individuals who go to bed early, get up early, and drink goji berries every day.
As for those who can truly fight? Even the strongest among the superhumans, most of them can't withstand a single bullet.
Even more incredibly, Li Muxuan, who had cultivated to the point of almost touching Zuo Ruotong's heels, was actually beaten to the ground by a few mercenaries carrying submachine guns.
What made Xu Qing laugh the most was that, as if in order to highlight the so-called "human relationships", Mi Shen had even forgotten the fundamental principle that "others are also human", and created a joke like "ordinary people ruling over others".
Even going back to ancient times, a figure like Xiang Yu was no match for an ordinary army.
Although there were tens of millions of people in ancient times, there were probably only a few hundred extraordinary individuals, plus there were too many useless people, so they couldn't cause any trouble.
But putting everything else aside, if a ruthless character who could smash through a dozen meters of ground with a single punch charged into a crowd, wouldn't the soldiers be so scared that they wet their pants and begged for mercy? Instead, they would form ranks and fight back.
This is probably like injecting the entire army with an "enhanced version of ideological imprint," welding even their survival instincts to death.
Alas, Mi Men! Alas, the ways of the world, alas, after half a lifetime of cultivation, great power returns to oneself but is not as good as the ways of the world; the ways of the world are not as good as those of ordinary people.
Ha, you don't know, the future patriarch of my four great families of supernatural beings, the mad dog in the supernatural world, Lü Ci, was hung up and beaten for seven days and seven nights by the county magistrate's son?
What's even more ridiculous is that after being thoroughly beaten, he was still called "arrogant"?
What do you mean by "King of Endurance"? So the so-called "mad dog" only works within the circle of supernatural beings, right?
Is this still a world of cultivation? Where did I come from?
Are you practicing spiritual cultivation or what? Stop cultivating and go home to farm.
Xu Qing could only say this.
In the world of supernatural beings, a middle-aged, greasy man skilled in social etiquette is sure to defeat a mystical nobleman who is the master of mysteries.
It'll be a sure thing!
