Chapter 485: 485, [The ‘Xian’ in gentleman, is the Xian that dares to take the lead]

At the tombstone of Gongshu Pan in the Demon Sect Burial Mountain, Shen Yan knelt obliviously, rambling on and on.

His words were illogical, just saying whatever came to his mind.

The life of a Great Cultivator was indeed too long; Hence, the time they spent together was excruciatingly long as well.

This lengthy period resulted in a heavy accumulation of memories.

The red dress on Shen Yan, no matter how you looked at it, appeared somewhat comical.

He was already a bald man, short, yet sturdy. The Peak Masters perhaps found humor in this, hence they proposed such absurd and playful requests.

Can you imagine a scene where a man with the countenance of a gangster leader, wearing women’s clothes?

The true ‘cross-dressing tough-guy.’

Lu Xun gently patted Mao Nanbei’s head and said, “Fourth junior sister, let’s leave first. Let the Sect Master have some time alone.”

“Alright.” Mao Nanbei nodded.

Lu Xun turned around and told the disciples of the Demon Sect, “Let’s all go back, shall we?”

“Yes, Young Elder.”

When everyone else left, Lu Xun led Mao Nanbei away.

He looked back one last time; Upon seeing no one else was around, Shen Yan, dressed in a red skirt, buried his bald head into his palms, sobbing quietly.

Cultivators of the Heavenly Dust were mostly filled with sadness. They cultivated for so long yet they were not able to rid themselves of emotions entirely. Instead, many developed deep feelings.

Lu Xun glanced upward at the sky and let out a long sigh.

…

…

After leaving Burial Mountain, Lu Xun and Mao Nanbei sat on a paper crane, hovering over the rear mountain of the Demon Sect.

The rear mountain was currently sealed with the master’s power, preventing people from entering.

“Little junior brother, what’s going on?” Mao Nanbei asked, confused.

“Fourth junior sister, I think the master is about to make a move,” suggested Lu Xun.

However, he didn’t expect this opportunity the master talked about to come so soon.

At noon, while the sun was shining brightly in the sky, it suddenly turned dark.

Everything happened suddenly, without warning.

Three roaring sounds echoed in the sky, and three cracks appeared.

They formed three enormous horizontal eyes overlooking the Heavenly Dust Continent.

The oppressive aura they carry suffused the air, and it was suffocating.

Lu Xun frowned, knowing something serious was about to happen.

Outside the border of the Eastern Region, the Great Sacrificial Rite fell to his knees, daring not to look directly at the three elongated eyes in the sky.

He realized it was the time for their deity to act, providing a distraction. Then, it would be his turn.

“Is this the opportunity his Supreme Lord mentioned?”

The Great Sacrificial Rite was overjoyed. In his view, with their deity’s involvement, it should be no problem to keep the master occupied or even easily defeat him.

“The strongest person in the Heavenly Dust Continent, even if they were stronger, could not reach the divine level,” thought the Great Sacrificial Rite as he knelt.

Just then, the master’s stationary perch behind the Demon Sect began to return to its natural state.

The falling leaves hanging in the air started to fall again, the still lake water started to flow, the wind blew again, and the bamboo leaves in the small bamboo forest rustled.

The master, sitting outside the Small Study, slowly opened his eyes.

He was very composed, with even a relaxed smile on his face.

“Finally found you,” he said.

Following that, the master stood up and slowly floated up.

Elder Gui followed closely beside him.

The master looked up at the three elongated eyes in the sky and said, “A mere illusion should stop causing trouble in Heavenly Dust.”

The master, dressed in a white robe, gently waved his sleeve; a bright white light was produced.

The white light flew upwards, instantly melting the false image in the sky.

After destroying it, the white light exploded directly in the air, puncturing a hole in the sky of the Heavenly Dust Continent.

The Great Sacrificial Rite, who had been kneeling on the ground, felt the sunlight on his body and a look of disbelief crossed his face.

“How is this possible!” He was shaken beyond recovery.

“This is not a power that cultivators canPossess! This is the power of Gods!” The Great Sacrificial Rite was mentally shocked.

Then, he saw a figure in a white robe flying higher and higher.

“What… What is he trying to do!” For a moment, the Great Sacrificial Rite couldn’t guess what the teacher was thinking.

…

…

Above the Demon Sect, the teacher looked down at Lu Xun and said, “Little Five, the time has come, come with me.”

With that, he gestured with his hand and Lu Xun followed him into the sky.

Flying at a height Lu Xun couldn’t guess.

If it weren’t for the teacher’s protection, he wouldn’t be able to fly this high.

In the Heavenly Dust Continent, even though cultivators can fly freely, their flight altitude was closely related to their cultivation base.

The most puzzling thing for him now was that he didn’t know what the teacher was going to do next.

“Teacher, what do you need me to do?” Lu Xun asked.

“You don’t have to do anything, I will extract half of the Primordial Power inside you, and with it, go to the other side to meet the foreign race spirits.” The teacher said with a smile.

“Teacher, are… are you confident?” After thinking about it, Lu Xun asked this question.

The teacher nodded and said, “I may not be able to kill it completely, but it is definitely not my opponent.”

“Phew.” Lu Xun took a deep breath when he heard the teacher’s words and felt relieved.

The teacher smiled and looked at Lu Xun, “Little Five, the real decisive factor is not me or it, but the situation on the Heavenly Dust Continent.”

“Huh?” Lu Xun was slightly stunned, then asked, “Teacher, you mean if we can defeat the foreign race, you can kill it?”

“According to my calculations, that’s correct.” The teacher nodded slightly.

Upon hearing this, Lu Xun felt pressure.

Because he could tell from the conversation that if the Heavenly Dust Continent was defeated, then it was likely that the spirits of the foreign race would win.

The teacher saw the conflicted expression on Lu Xun’s face and said, “Little Five, I know you are different from everyone else.”

Upon hearing this, Lu Xun looked up sharply.

The teacher smiled and said, “But the way you do things, you are too cautious, you worry too much.”

“In the past, it may have been a virtue to think thrice before acting, but at this moment, it is not a good thing.”

The teacher raised his right hand, lightly tapped Lu Xun’s head, and said, “You don’t need to care about others’ opinions, whether they see you as a freak or a hero, you can throw caution to the wind, I will protect you.”

Lu Xun had many secrets, which indeed caused him to worry about whether he would expose anything when acting.

He had always been quite conflicted.

He was the most special person on the entire Heavenly Dust Continent, even more than the players.

During this time, having learned about the life of the teacher and his uncle, he had done a lot of self-reflection.

He really worried too much.

The teacher was different.

The word ‘teacher’ in his name indicates someone daring to make the first move.

He dared to do what no one else dared to do!

The teacher withdrew his hand from Lu Xun’s head, and said loudly, “Little Five, I have a message for you!”

After the teacher finished speaking, he flew higher and higher, and his gentle voice spread down, clear and distinct for Lu Xun to hear.

——”Regard the doubting eyes of others as ghost lights and boldly walk your night road!”
