"Someone's blocking the way?"
Everyone was shocked. Someone robbed it so quickly? Could it be that they deliberately targeted Lingxiao Academy?
Long Chen approached the front of the war chariot and peeked ahead, only to see a thick fog ahead, making it impossible to see anything.
The mist was yellowish-brown and looked somewhat eerie. Just as Long Chen poked his head out, a scream rang out. Suddenly, the void tore open, and a beam of golden light sliced down from the sky, carving a path through the mist.
On that road, blood light splattered, and the blood energy carried a powerful pressure, making one's soul tremble. This was the blood of a super strongman.
The pegasus continued flying, quickly passing through the mist, but saw no one.
"Ran?"
Long Chen was taken aback.
"If I don't run, are we still waiting to be killed?" Bai Shishi's mother smiled gently.
"Senior, you're amazing, able to attack from a distance." Mu Qingyun looked at Bai Shishi's mother, his face full of amazement and admiration.
You have to know, just now, Bai Shishi's mother hadn't formed hand seals or formed seals; she had simply used her soul consciousness and unleashed a terrifying strike. This was what Long Chen had once told her: 'Hide a sword in your heart, unite your mind, and you can kill from afar without a trace.'
When Long Chen mentioned it, Mu Qingyun thought such a trick was only in legends, but Bai Shishi's mother performed it right in front of her, instantly stirring her emotions and making her even more admirable and grateful to Long Chen. Everything Long Chen said was true.
Bai Shishi's mother looked at Mu Qingyun and smiled, "You're impressive too. You've already managed to hide your sword in your sheath. The goal of hiding it in your heart isn't too far. Once your mind and spirit are united, you'll be able to pull off this move."
Because you are a pure sword cultivator, when you can unleash this move, its power becomes even more terrifying. "
Mu Qingyun was both surprised and delighted, and at the same time, he admired this senior's insight even more.
Just before setting off, Long Chen congratulated her, saying she had finally hidden her sword in her sheath and that the gate to the Way of the Sword had opened. But she still didn't understand what it meant. When she asked Long Chen, he replied that knowing or not didn't make no difference. Rather than letting others tell you, it was better to let your sword tell you.
Now, Bai Shishi's mother has also said she keeps her sword in her sheath, once again proving Long Chen's words and her progress.
"What's the use of being powerful? Isn't it just marrying someone who can't even beat you?" And it was two women serving one husband. "Bai Shishi said coldly from afar.
Long Chen was stunned, then suddenly understood. It turned out Bai Shishi was extremely dissatisfied with his mother marrying Bai Zhantang. Judging by the tone, Bai Zhantang's strength was not as strong as his wife's.
Bai Xiaole once said that Bai Shishi looked down on any man, including her father. Long Chen couldn't help but laugh. If your mother hadn't married your father, how could you have come into this world?
Bai Shishi's mother wasn't angry; she seemed used to it and smiled without saying anything.
"So you mean, whoever wants to marry you has to knock you down first?" Long Chen couldn't help but chuckle unfairly. After hearing Long Chen's words, Young Master Changchuan couldn't help but ponder.
"If you want to be my husband, you must be stronger than me, you must remain faithful to your life. In his world, there can only be one woman." Bai Shishi said coldly.
"Good thing I don't want to." Long Chen stuck out his tongue, feeling relieved.
This girl is pretty, but her temper is somewhat domineering and her thoughts are somewhat extreme, making her only to keep her distance.
"Hmph, a playboy like you—who do you think would care about him?" Bai Shishi snorted coldly.
Long Chen shrugged without arguing. Thinking of Mengqi, Chu Yao, Tang Wan'er, and others, he couldn't help but smile. He really was a womanizer. Any one of these female confidantes who married him was a blessing he had accumulated over several lifetimes. Besides, with so many female confidants, what could he not be satisfied with?
"Brother Long, I was reckless and rude before, and I apologize here to you." Young Master Changchuan stood up abruptly, cupped his hands in salute to Long Chen, and left everyone stunned.
Long Chen couldn't help but laugh: "What's wrong?" No longer seeing me as a competitor? As someone who's been through it, let me remind you, there is no outcome between you. "
Why?" If Long Chen had said this before, he would have been angry, but now he couldn't help but humbly ask for advice.
"Because you don't understand what love is. You like her only because you like beautiful things."
Let me ask you, if one day she loses her current talent, figure, and beauty, becoming a bloated fat person or becoming ugly, would you still love her, protect her, and regard her as more important than life itself? Long Chen asked.
"That's ...," Changchuan Gongzi was stunned. He wanted to say it was possible, but it seemed he really couldn't.
"Love is not an exchange of equal social status, nor a comparison of talented men and beautiful women, but a heartfelt sacrifice. True love is a deep-seated tenderness, a longing for a rotten heart, an entanglement of joy and pain, foolishness like a moth to a flame, and an obsession that never regrets even death." Long Chen looked out the window, as if his thoughts had drifted far away.
Long Chen's words left everyone silent. Luo Bing, Luo Ning, and Mu Qingyun looked at Long Chen, their eyes filled with a hint of longing. Is such love really true in this world?
This time, even the usually cold Bai Shishi was moved. Every woman longs for such love, but soon, her expression turned cold, and she said mockingly:
"You talk so sweetly, yet you have a bunch of wives and concubines. If you were truly devoted to love, how could you be so unfaithful?"
"Being passionate doesn't mean you're not devoted. Those who haven't tasted love will never understand its joys and sorrows." Long Chen said calmly.
"Rumble..."
At that moment, the void suddenly darkened, as if something had covered the sky. At the same time, a terrifying pressure radiated out, sending chills down one's spine, as if falling into an ice cellar.
Long Chen looked up and saw a large black bird flying past the crowd's heads. The black bird spread its wings and stretched for a thousand li, making it seem so small compared to the chariots Long Chen and the others were riding.
The Dream Pegasus was already fast enough, but the black giant bird, its wings trembling like a black meteor, trailing its tail and whistling away, quickly overtook the Pegasus.
"Three-legged Golden Crow" Long Chen was startled. The bird was entirely black, but its claws were golden.
"Doesn't the three-legged golden crow have three legs? But it only has two legs? Luo Ning couldn't help but ask curiously.
Long Chen said, "The three-legged Golden Crow refers to its three legs, not three feet.
Just like the five-clawed golden dragon, it doesn't have five claws, but five toes, because except for the true dragon, other dragons have only four toes. Everyone
suddenly understood—so that's how it was—they had all been misled by the name.
"I didn't expect the Golden Crow Old Monster to have emerged as well. It seems his descendants will also participate in the Nine Provinces Conference. It seems this year's Nine Provinces Conference will be extraordinarily lively." Watching the golden crow fly away, Bai Shishi's mother couldn't help but murmur to herself.
As the Dream Pegasus galloped, it overtook countless flying boats, chariots, and mounts along the way, and was overtaken countless times. Three days later, an ancient city appeared ahead.
"We're here."
