As the Universe Turns - Chapter 1174
Chapter 1174 Karma
At this moment, the room was silent. Perhaps in the next few days, Su Changqing had used up too much energy to heal Xiao Chen’s injuries and remove the Bone Corrosion Poison in Xiao Chen’s body. At this moment, his face was slightly pale. In addition, when he recalled the past events, it was even harder to conceal the sorrow in his heart and the loss of his beloved daughter.
Xiao Chen remained motionless. His expression was a little stunned. A long time ago, when he was only a small naughty boy in Ning Village, he would always hear the children beside Prince Sun Zhao calling him a little bastard without parents. No matter how many people the other party had, he would always rush forward. However, how could he beat so many people by himself? Every time, he would always return injured.
Therefore, in the eyes of outsiders, he loved to fight with people since he was young. As a result, the people of the Eight Ten Miles Village said that he was a child without parents to discipline him, not allowing his own children to play with him.
At that time, he had also thought about who his biological parents were and why they were so ruthless and wanted to abandon him.
Every time he thought of this, a small hatred would arise in his heart at such a young age. He would tell himself over and over again that even if they met in the future, he would still not recognize him …
Wu Niang, on the other hand, never paid any attention to rumors, benevolence, righteousness, and wisdom outside the village. She had never taught Yi Chen a lesson and never mentioned Fairy Miaoyin.
Later on, Little Yi Chen slowly grew up and no longer cared what others said. However, at a young age, he had a lot of worries hidden in his heart.
Only every bright night would he sit by the windowsill and look at the moon in the sky in a daze. He sat there for a long time and sometimes fell asleep by the windowsill. Therefore, Wu Niang would visit him every now and then, carry him to bed and cover him with the blanket for fear that he would catch a cold.
At this moment, recalling the past, Xiao Chen felt an indescribable pain in his heart. He was silently saddened, and no one could see what was happening.
“Then what happened afterwards? What happened afterwards …”
“Afterwards” Su Changqing took a deep breath and slowly explained what had happened afterwards.
…
“Daddy, daddy …”
Just as Su Changqing and his wife were grieving, the voice of their youngest daughter, Su Qian, came from outside. Seeing this scene in the secret room and her haggard father, Su Qian had already guessed seventy to eighty percent, and her face couldn’t help but pale.
“Who exactly is that person? Why did he do this to a little baby?”
Su Qian also couldn’t understand why someone would be so crazy and pour into a baby that wasn’t even full moon into Three Corpse Demon.
“Sigh …”
Su Changqing sighed and said, “The Three Corpse Demon is originally from the Three Realms and the Six Daos. It is formed from the vicious and vulgar energy of all living beings. Once it is formed, the consequences will be unimaginable …”
At this point, Looking at the baby in Madam’s hands, He continued, “Right now, Three Corpse Demon is hibernating in his body. In the future, as his cultivation grows, Three Corpse Demon will also use him as a cauldron and slowly grow. Once he takes shape, there will probably be an inevitable loss of life in the entire world … If people find out the secrets of his body, do you think there will be room for him in this world …”
At the end of his words, Su Changqing closed his eyes deeply. Madam Su held the baby in her arms. The more she looked at the baby, the more she looked like Rou’er who was just born. She couldn’t help but cry, “Rou’er, Rou’er, your life is so bitter …”
The entire room was shrouded in a layer of sadness. After a long time, Su Changqing slowly opened his eyes. “Once Three Corpse Demon takes shape in his body, it will be completely devoured by him. At that time, I’m afraid no one will be able to stop it …”
Hearing this, Madam Su’s body trembled even more. She hugged the baby tightly and kept retreating, “Evergreen, what are you going to do … do you want to kill him? He was Rou’er who traded her life for it … I don’t care, I don’t care about Three Corpse Demon …”
Su Changqing took a deep breath and quietly closed his eyes. At this moment, his heart was as sharp as a knife. However, in his heart, there was not only his late daughter, but also the entire Su Clan. There was also … all living beings in the world.
“Wait … Daddy, I’ve thought of it.”
Suddenly, Su Qian’s expression froze. Su Changqing opened his eyes and looked at her. “Qian’er, what did you think of?”
Su Qian walked towards the mother who was carrying the baby. ‘”Daddy just said that the higher his cultivation, the faster the Three Corpse Demon will grow. If he grows up in the mortal world and becomes an ordinary mortal, will the Three Corpse Demon remain in a dormant state and be unable to awaken?”
Hearing this, Su Changqing frowned deeply and nodded, “It’s not that I didn’t think that if he grew up in the mortal world and didn’t enter the cultivation gate or the devil gate, then Three Corpse Demon would never wake up. However …”
When he finished speaking, he paused for a moment before frowning even deeper. He continued, “However, all of this has changed in a lifetime. I’m afraid …”
“Try it …”
Su Qian looked at her father, who was currently covered in sad clouds. He turned around and said, Looking at the baby in his mother’s arms, he said sadly, “Big sister, this child has just come out and encountered a great calamity. If he enters the Immortal Sect in the future, he will definitely suffer many calamities. Rather than that, it would be better for him to have a wife and children in the mortal world and live a peaceful life … In this way, no one will know his identity. The Three Corpse Demons will never wake up.”
“Mm …”
Su Changqing nodded helplessly. Right now, this was the only way to save the child’s life. Su Qian said, “Oh right, father, don’t you have a good friend outside Suzhou City? In my opinion, why don’t you …”
“Him? I haven’t seen him for a long time. I wonder if he’s …”
Su Changqing concentrated and pondered for a moment before finally shaking his head, “No, Suzhou looks like a land of mortals, but in fact, it condenses the spiritual energy of heaven and earth. This child absolutely cannot be sent to Suzhou.”
After saying that, he took two steps forward and looked at the baby in his wife’s hands. He sighed, “How can a flood dragon be an object in a pond? It’s strange. This child is born extraordinary. Once he goes to a place rich in spiritual energy, I’m afraid he will definitely be … Sigh.”
Three days later, Su Changqing found his youngest disciple, Xu Jin. Xu Jin was the last disciple he accepted, ranked last, but he trusted him deeply. No one should know about the baby.
“Ah Jin, you have to cultivate in the mortal world outside. Otherwise, you will definitely be detected by the Heavenless Palace. As a master …”
“Master, don’t worry. This disciple will definitely live up to Master’s request and bring Senior Sister Rou’s child to the mortal world safely …”
As a result, Su Changqing’s little disciple, Xu Jin, changed his name to Yang Jin and went to the mortal world together with another senior sister, disguised as a young couple.
However, after searching for a long time, Xu Jin found it difficult to find the most suitable place. If it was a land of mountains and rivers, there would most likely be people from Diabolism nearby. If it was a land of beautiful mountains and rivers, there would often be people from the Profound Sect coming down the mountain to recruit disciples. This child was extraordinary. After a long time, he would definitely be favored by the experts of the Profound Sect.
Apart from that, Xu Jin was also worried about being targeted by the people in Diabolism, so he finally thought about it and went to the Xianyuan Central Plains, where Xuanqing Sect was.
Xuanqing Sect was the leader of the Righteous Daos of the Five Regions. No matter if it was the people from the Demon Gate or Spirit Ruins Realm of Heavenless Palace, they would never dare to come here to cause chaos.
As the ancient village was far away from Xuanqing Mountain and was an absolute mortal land, such a small village would not attract the attention of those experts in Xuanqing Sect.
So in the end, Xu Jin decided to bring the child into the village …
…
At this moment, after listening to the cause and effect of that year, Xiao Chen sat silently. His background was finally revealed, but at this moment, he felt an indescribable pressure …
So he is a devil, a Three Corpse Demon that everyone wants to get rid of …
However, Master, you told me that all living things are born with their own spirits. We, the cultivators of the Immortal Realm, should take the world as the leader, and individual life and death as secondary …
Master … Isn’t the devil you hate the most? But why did you save me back then …
You clearly know that there is a Three Corpse Demon in my body. There is no way to break it in this world. When Three Corpse Demon took shape, there was a peerless Great Devil in this world.
Why …
Master, what exactly were you thinking back then … Not only did you not kill me, apart from such a peerless demonic embryo, you even made me worship your disciple …
Do you think that one day, when I finally become a devil in this world and the heavens and earth will not allow me to do so, you will come out and shoulder all of this for me?
Ling Yin … Ling Yin, hahaha …
Silent grief was the most tragic. At this moment, Xiao Chen did not reveal any emotions on his face, but his heart was filled with saber-cutting, needle-piercing, and tens of thousands of arrows …
“Uh …”
Suddenly, Su Changqing let out a muffled snort. It turned out that all these years, he had been suppressing the Ghost Heaven Curse that that person had infiltrated his body with the Purple Qi Eastward Profound Technique. This curse was a secret curse that was not passed down by the Heavens. There was no solution in this world, so he could only rely on his entire body to suppress it.
However, the situation would worsen day by day. In addition, he had helped Xiao Chen heal his injuries and clear away the poison in the past few days, and he had also lost a lot of his strength. It was inevitable that this Ghost Heaven Curse would be able to take advantage of it.
“Changqing, how are you?”
Madam Su stood at the side with a nervous expression on her face. Su Changqing shook her hand and said, “It’s fine” She looked at Xiao Chen again, “That was the case back then.”
Xiao Chen raised his head and looked at the two people in front of him. At this moment, his heart was filled with mixed feelings. After a long time, he slowly got out of bed and said, “Where is my mother’s tomb? I want to go take a look …”
“Alright, child, come with me …”
…
The Su Clan’s “Seeing Su Peak” was surrounded by mountains with spiritual energy. There were Sword Cleansing Pools, Jade Lotus Terrace, Seeing Su Immortal Realm, and other places on the mountain. It was extremely difficult for non-Su Clan members to come to the Seeing Su Peak, and they could not even find it.
Although Su Changqing had kept Xiao Chen’s matter a secret these past few days, how could he not attract the attention of others when someone suddenly appeared on the mountain?
“I heard that two days ago, Eldest Young Miss brought back a severely injured person. I wonder who he is …” Someone was secretly discussing behind her back these past few days.
About an incense stick later, Xiao Chen followed Su Changqing to a secluded valley called the Phoenix Cry Stream in the back mountain. However, he saw that the valley was full of flowers and plants, the spring water was murmuring, and the cliff was filled with bouquets of red phoenix flowers that were like fire. They swayed gently in the wind.
When she arrived at this place, Madam Su’s eyes turned red and she choked, “I remember that when Rou’er was young, she loved to play here the most. Every time she quarreled with her father, she would always come here alone …”
Xiao Chen walked into the valley. He looked at the clusters of red phoenix flowers on the edge of the cliff. Within the sky, there seemed to be a figure flashing, but in the blink of an eye, it disappeared …
Madam Su wiped her eyes and said, “Your mother and your father’s tombs are inside. You can go in …”
“Mm …”
Xiao Chen gently nodded and walked into the valley step by step. However, every step he took, he felt as if he had a thousand jun of strength under his feet. In his heart, it was as if he was being fiercely pressed down by a large rock …
