The air pressure in the basement was a little low.
The leaders who had destroyed the world were all silent.
A few of them even had slightly red eyes.
Xu Taiping held Xu Qingzhi in his arms as he stood in the middle of the crowd.
The white light had already dissipated, and Xu Taiping and Xu Qingzhi could clearly be seen.
Xu Qingzhi was covered in blood, and her eyes were closed. There was no life left in her.
Xu Taiping stood there with a look of silence in his eyes.
"All of you can leave. I will take care of my mother's affairs." Xu Taiping said.
His voice was very calm, very calm, and could even be described as cold. It was hard for others to imagine that the corpse he was carrying in his arms belonged to his mother.
Logically speaking, a mother should not be so cold when her son had left.
However, Xu Taiping waved his hand and said, "I don't have anything I want to say right now, and I'm actually not planning to save you guys either. I just want to save my mother, and while I'm at it, I'll also save you guys. Don't thank me, I'm not on the same side as you guys, and now that I've saved you guys, you guys can do whatever you want to do, don't come and disturb me."
With that, Xu Taiping walked out with Xu Qing Zhi in his arms.
The people who destroyed the world looked at each other and sighed.
Xu Taiping left the basement and went upstairs.
"Prepare a car for me." Xu Taiping said to the subordinate beside him.
"Yes sir!"
Not long after, a black car stopped in front of the house.
Xu Taiping carried Xu Qingzhi's body into the car and said to the driver, "Let's go to Crimson Flame Town."
"Yes, boss."
The car sped away from the city and headed in the direction of Red Flame Town.
In the car, Xu Taiping was quietly hugging Xu Qingzhi.
Even though Xu Taiping's body temperature could be transferred, Xu Qingzhi's body still turned cold and stiff.
All good things would come to nothing after death. They would become ugly, and their bodies would exude a strange smell. Their bodies would also become extremely stiff, like they were made of ice.
Xu Taiping had seen a lot of bodies, even eating and sleeping amongst the piles of corpses, so he didn't think it was unbearable to carry a corpse like this.
Xu Taiping looked neither sad nor happy.
All of his emotions exploded in his heart during the fight with Zhao Qingshan. After his emotions exploded, what followed was a sense of numbness.
This kind of numbness had existed since Xu Taiping had become a killer, and it had persisted until now. The numbness did not decline, but instead grew stronger, and even though Xu Taiping's personality had changed a lot, he was still numb to matters of life and death as usual. No matter who died, who lived, perhaps he would have some emotional fluctuations for a period of time, but after the changes, his body would quickly go numb.
But, being numb meant that she wasn't sad?
No, actually, most of the time, numbness was just Xu Taiping's way of self-restraint, his way of self-protection. No, actually, most of the time, numbness was just Xu Taiping's way of self-control, his way of self-protection.
Two hours later, the car entered Crimson Flame Town.
Xu Taiping carried Xu Qingzhi's corpse for more than two hours.
The Crimson Flame Town was as quiet as ever. No matter how many years passed, this small village seemed to be the same no matter how many years passed.
Xu Taiping told the driver to drive the car to the front of his old house, and then he got out of the car.
The old house that had been renovated was extremely peaceful. Until the New Year, Xu Taiping and Xia Jinxuan rarely came back.
The house was clean, though, because Tu's wife came to clean it often.
Xu Taiping did not enter the old house. Instead, he walked around the old house and arrived at the back of the mountain.
The back of the mountain had tombs.
In the tomb lay Xu Taiping's father and an empty coffin.
This was Xu Qingzhi's coffin.
Many years ago, Xu Taiping had thought that his mother was in one of the coffins, but had later found out that she wasn't. Xu Taiping had been excited for a long time, but now, his mother really was going to stay in one of the coffins.
Xu Taiping came to the grave.
There was already a new coffin placed there.
Xu Taiping had someone come over to release it.
At his level, there were many things that he no longer needed to do himself.
Xu Taiping carefully placed Xu Qingzhi inside the coffin, then closed the lid. Afterwards, he placed the coffin back into the grave.
Xu Taiping did this very slowly, because he knew that once he entered the grave, he would never again have a chance to see Xu Qingzhi again.
Xu Taiping picked up a shovel next to him and shoveled the dirt into the grave.
Soon the grave was filled.
Xu Taiping put away the shovel and stood in front of the tombstone.
The tombstone had left behind his parents' names. This tombstone had been made many years ago, and now it was worthy of its name.
Xu Taiping knelt down on the ground. He bent his upper body slightly, supported himself with his hands, and kowtowed three times in a serious manner.
Tears finally flowed out from Xu Taiping's eyes.
The so-called numbness was only temporary for those who had lost their loved ones. When they recalled the past of their loved ones, all of the numbness would disappear and be replaced by sadness.
Xu Taiping seemed to see his mother in an hour, and also seemed to see his mother a few months ago.
Everything appeared before his eyes.
In the face of his deceased family, the most uncomfortable thing would be his memories.
Every time he recalled, it was as if a wound had been torn from his heart. The pain was unbearable.
However, no matter how much he recalled, he couldn't do anything about it. Who could really forget their loved ones?
That was a person who had once appeared in his life. His every word and action, every action he had ever done to you, had been branded into your mind. No one could easily forget it, and no one would ever truly want to forget it.
The best proof that a person ever lived in this world was that someone remembered him.
There were many times when people wanted to pass on their memories to their children. The fathers would tell the younger generation what grandfather had been like before, and the grand grandfather had been like before. From there, the memories would be passed on to the later generations.
Even in the past few hundred years, there would still be descendants that would remember what had happened in their ancestors, even if it wasn't a lot, even if it was a few very simple things.
This was an inheritance. It was not just a bloodline inheritance, but also the inheritance of the clan's memories.
Xu Taiping will later tell his children everything about their grandparents.
After a long moment passed, Xu Taiping wiped the tears from his eyes and left.
He would often come back here to see his parents.
When he reached the door of the old house, the driver had already been waiting for a long time.
The driver opened the door when he saw Xu Taiping.
Xu Taiping sat in the car and said lightly, "Back to Jiang Yuan City."
"Yes sir!"
The car left Crimson Flame Town and headed towards Jiangyuan City.
On the way, Xu Taiping's phone rang.
It was Chen Cha.
"I just received the news. My condolences." Chen Cha said.
"Thank you." Xu Taiping said.
"The annihilated upper echelons have found me and asked me to contact you." Chen Cha said.
"Why are you looking for me?" Xu Taiping asked.
"They wish for you to become the new leader of the world's destruction. You can be considered to have inherited your mother's legacy." Chen Cha said.
"I don't have the same idea as Annihilation." Xu Taiping said.
"Annihilating the world is actually a very simple organization. They exist to exterminate the creator of the world. Although their methods are similar to the creator, they are still used on the correct path." Chen Cha said.
"This is not the right thing to do. Interference with human evolution is self-destruction. " Xu Taiping said.
"You've also been interfered with by humans." Chen Cha said.
"So many times, I'd rather not be interfered with. Maybe that way, everything will be even simpler than it is now." Xu Taiping said.
"This is all fate. Even if you didn't interfere with it, your life wouldn't have been so simple." Chen Cha said.
"This is a false proposition." Xu Taiping said.
"Do you really not wish to become the leader of World Exterminating Lord?" Chen asked.
"Mm. Tell the people who destroyed the world that I will use my own method to deal with the creator. If they don't want to die, then stay here quietly." Xu Taiping said.
"Well, I'll tell them what you said. By the way, they also asked me to thank you. " Chen Cha said.
"I was just thinking along the way. A bucket, there's something I need to tell you." Xu Taiping said.
"What is it?" Chen asked.
"The creator may have made some breakthrough in biotechnology." Xu Taiping said.
"What do you mean?" Chen asked.
There is an organization called the Templar Hall under the New World Government, and inside the Templar Hall, there are more than 90 thousand warriors, more than 100 of them. I don't believe that they can find so many powerhouses with 90 thousand fighting strength around the world, the only explanation being that these warriors are all powerhouses created by the creators of the previous world, and their fighting strength is at most 30 to 40 thousand. But now, they have enough time to create a large number of powerhouses with 90 thousand fighting strength. Xu Taiping said.
When Chen Cha heard this, he remained silent for a long time.
"Is that true?" Chen asked.
"Do you think I would lie to you?" Xu Taiping asked.
Chen Cha was silent for a long time, then he said, "Perhaps it's really as you said, their technology should have broken through. This is not good news for you, nor is it good news for you. "
"Yes." Xu Taiping nodded seriously.
When I write this chapter, I will always think of my father. May every soul that returns to the earth be remembered by future generations.
