I only have passive skills, so I'm extremely cautious

sieve!

A figure flew down from the treetops, it was Chu Chen who looked confused and wary.

He shouted anxiously across a bunch of spiritual formations, "What happened?"

"I finished taking care of things over there and couldn't sit still, so I thought about coming here to find you. While I was waiting outside, I suddenly felt a violent fluctuation of spiritual power here. I remembered that you happened to be here, so I Come and have a look.”

Seeing that Chen Zhong narrowed his eyes, Chu Chen felt the desire to survive and hurriedly explained a lot.

Chen Zhong was worried that Chu Chen was actually traveling with Li Boyi, but according to the feedback from the surrounding spiritual formations, Chu Chen did run all the way just now.

The spiritual array opened, and Chu Chen walked in tremblingly.

The spiritual formation is filled with a variety of terrifying powers, and there is also a very familiar aura - Li Boyi's flame.

But... where have they gone?

Chu Chen felt a rustling sound under his feet, and when he lowered his head, he saw that he was stepping on a pile of black and gray debris.

How does this look like ashes?

call--

There is wind blowing through the mountains and forests.

Ashes were blown up and hit Chu Chen's face.

His face instantly turned pale, and his eyelids trembled. The person staring at him was the Li Boyi he was looking for!

Chu Chen's heart was beating wildly, and he felt so happy despite being scared.

His biggest rival in Phoenix City was gone. Not to mention anything else, Chu Chen was filled with gratitude to Chen Zhong.

"Thank you, senior, for taking the initiative!" Chu Chen suddenly felt that the smile on the corner of Chen Zhong's mouth was quite meaningful.

Could it be that killing Li Boyi was a gift from my senior?

If you want me to surrender honestly, help me clear the biggest obstacle in Phoenix City?

Senior is worthy of being a senior, this move hits the target... I really can't refuse.

"Oh?" Chen Zhong snorted pretending to be profound.

Seeing Chu Chen's performance, Chen Zhong probably guessed what was going on in his heart, and had to admire that sometimes brainstorming was a good assist.

"You should know that if you gain something, you have to pay for it. There is no such thing as a pie in the sky," Chen Zhong said slowly and slowly guided him, "Of course, I like to play a long game to catch big fish, and those who follow me, The rewards are not small, and all you have to pay is a little bit of loyalty.”

"For example, her."

Chen Zhong pointed to Yang Qin.

Yang Qin took off his mask, revealing his cold face in his early thirties, and at the same time, he burst out with an aura as strong as an iceberg.

Chu Chen was trembling, his expression gradually becoming stiff. He pointed at Yang Qin in disbelief, "You... you... you are the master of the Shenxue Sect!"

"Aren't you in the soul-tempering realm? Why have you broken through to the grandmaster realm in just a few years?"

"No wonder I always feel that you look familiar. We met once four years ago."

"Could it be...that this is all the result of seniors?"

"Senior, do you really have a way?"

At this moment, Chu Chen was talking to himself, while Chen Zhong and Yang Qin remained silent. It was precisely this silence and quietness that made them even more unpredictable.

"Clan Master Chu, is your heart still churning because of something?" Chen Zhong suddenly said something incomprehensible.

Chu Chen paused and opened his mouth several times, "Maybe you can still do it?"

"If I told you that if you follow me, you may face the most powerful danger in the world and may sacrifice your life, what choice will you make?"

"...If my heart was still hot at that time, I might burn my life." Chu Chen's emotions were aroused, and his words gradually became more accurate.

"Congratulations, you are qualified to follow me," Chen Zhong opened his arms and smiled wildly, "However, I don't want your life, your life belongs to you."

Chu Chen stared at Chen Zhong closely, as if a ball of heat was boiling in his chest, and he fell into memories.

"The danger senior mentioned is the Demon's Cave, right? My parents once belonged to the Imperial Army, and they died in the Demon's Cave when I was ten years old.

Later, my grandfather and I depended on each other. When I was fifteen years old, a monster research institute in a mountain forest went out of control and the monsters escaped. My grandfather happened to be collecting medicine in the mountains. In order to pay for my tuition at the Lingwu Master Academy... he died. Yes,

How should I put it? I want to become stronger. I have no other purpose. I just want to enter the devil's cave and kill more monsters until I kill them all. I don't want any more parents of children to stay in the devil's cave in this world. "

Chen Zhong listened quietly, with mixed feelings in his heart.

What he just said was not nonsense, but a large-scale bombing based on Chu Chen's performance. Chu Chen's character can be called great and upright among spiritual martial arts masters.

It can be seen from the fact that he was moved by his killing of Yanlong and came to save him.

Coupled with the background of the current era, the threat of the Demon Cave has always been on everyone's head. The sorrow of the powerful spiritual martial artist is most likely related to the Demon Cave.

Just put it on top!

To put it bluntly, Chen Zhong was taking advantage of Chu Chen's inner softness.

The two of them understood the dangers differently. Chu Chen thought it was a devil's cave, including Yu Lingli, Wang Dezhi and others.

But only Chen Zhong knew that the danger he mentioned was the person from the upper world who killed his parents.

But it's not important. He can't avoid the devil's cave. Chen Zhong figured it out. When he becomes the top, there are some things that he can't hide from. The fate in the dark will play tricks on people.

Although those are all things in the future, Chen Zhong's current operations are also based on preparation considerations.

Cultivation does not require much effort, there is automatic cultivation, and there is no need to practice spiritual skills. After all, there is no such function at all, so Chen Zhong can only arm himself in other ways.

Such as a group of people who can stand up when they themselves fall.

All these insecurities stem from one's own golden finger - the arsenal of magical skills.

Chen Zhong is not stupid. With such a protagonist's halo on his head, he asks himself, while he is happy and enjoying it, he is actually more panicked.

If you want to wear the crown, you must bear its weight!

Chen Zhong knew that this "heavy" had not yet come.

"Alas! I think too much." Chen Zhong raised his head and sighed in a low voice.

"Huh? What did senior say?" Chu Chen asked.

"Call me Master."

Chen Zhong's next words flashed across Chu Chen's waist.

"It's just a ritual. I don't really want to be your master. The word master here does not mean master, it is a homophone." Chen Zhong had no choice but to say this, trying to make Chu Chen less awkward.

"Owner."

"Eh."

…

One day later, the moon and stars became sparse.

Chu Chen walked out of the cave, with two extremes of joy and sadness in his eyes.

He raised his head and said, "Mom, Dad, Grandpa, I finally became a grandmaster. I have the ability to kill more monsters."

He turned around, bowed sincerely, and burst into tears, "Sir, your kindness will be unforgettable in the world."

"I'm sorry, sir, why am I, a big old man like me, crying? It's so embarrassing!"

"Damn it, I risked my life to practice the beast blood skill and took risks. I really just wanted to kill a few more monsters. I never told anyone this secret. They all thought I was an unscrupulous cultivator... "

A master and a servant, just standing under the moonlight, one speaking and the other listening.

Chu Chen's voice was hoarse as he spoke. This middle-aged man in his forties had been holding back decades of grievances.

At the end, Chen Zhong patted him on the shoulder, "Are you sleepy? Why don't you take a nap?"

Chu Chen was shocked again, and looked at Chen Zhong with an even deeper look, "Okay... okay."

He has not slept for nearly ten years, and he is afraid of seeing his loved ones torn apart by monsters in his sleep.

Chu Chen got into the cave, and soon he heard the sound of snoring.

"Nine out of ten things are unsatisfactory in life." Yang Qin approached, "I want to go back to see Yin'er and come back in three days."

"Go," Chen Zhong said, "I have Chu Chen for the time being."
