Chapter 368: Chapter 368 – Cleaning the World
Of course, the reason why Chen Rou still looked like this was not just because she was a Curse Bearer.
The golden pendant that Chen Heng had given to her back then had also played a big part.
Chen Heng had imbued that golden pendant with much of his divine energy, and during those 20 years, the divine energy had modified Chen Rou’s body, causing her to change.
That was why she did not look like she had aged these 20 years.
Of course, Chen Rou did not mind this.
Right now, her focus was Chen Heng’s return.
She immediately headed out and requested a few days of leave as she quickly headed to the Changyuan City.
As Chen Heng’s big sister, she was the person who understood him the most, and she knew where he would be.
However, before this, Chen Heng met some other people first.
Within the silent house, the door was opened as a woman walked in.
She looked around 20 years old and had delicate looks, and was wearing white clothes.
After walking in, she stared at the figure in front of her in surprise.
Their eyes met, and the woman spoke in surprise, “Y-You are… Uncle Chen?”
“Uncle?” Hearing this, Chen Heng was a bit surprised, but he soon came to his senses, “Are you Xiao Lan?”
The woman nodded in response, confirming this.
“YOuv’e grown up.” Chen Heng said as he smiled.
After 20 years, that little girl had become an adult.
During this time, Chen Heng’s appearance had not changed while he had been asleep, while others had still been affected by the passage of time.
Following this, the two of them began to chat.
“After you left, Uncle Chen, Uncle Yang and Uncle Liang stayed here, and only left a few years ago.”
Xiao Lan began to tell Chen Heng what had happened over the years.
During this period of time, Yang Cheng had remained single, while Liang Xiao had married and had his own wife and children.
Despite this, they still treated Xiao Lan as if she was their own child.
In order to look after Xiao Lan, they had stayed in this city for 10 or so years.
Only after Xiao Lan had graduated from university and begun to work did they begin to travel.
“Your big sister went to Tianyuan due to work, and is currently the head of the Alliance,” Xiao Lan continued.
Back then, Chen Rou had been the leader of the Curse Bearers here.
Because of Chen Heng, after he had left, Chen Rou had joined the Alliance had become a Captain there.
Over the past 10 or so years, she had continuously risen up in the ranks before becoming the leader.
Another thing was that she still had not married—it seemed that she had put all of her efforts into work.
Chen Heng was not too surprised about this; after all, this was the person Chen Rou was.
She was very ambitious, and even though she cared about her family, her workw as very important to her as well.
With heer personality, after Chen Heng, her only attachment, left, she would do her best to climb up in the organisation.
From the opportunities Chen Heng had created for herm, it was expected that Chen Rou would climb to such a position.
Xiao Lan and Chen Heng chated for a long time.
The reason why Xiao Lan had come here was because Chen Rou had asked her to come here to regularly clean this place.
Chen Rou knew what her little brother was like,p and knew that he would return here once he woke up.
“Looks like Aunty Chen cares a lot about you…” Xiao Lan said as seriously as she looked at Chen Heng.
After chatting for a while, Xiao Lan left.
Compared to Chen Heng, she had many things to do, so she could not continue to stay here.
However, in the following few days, she came here quite regularly, almost whenever she had free time.
A few days later, Chen Rou arrived.
After 20 years, the brother and sister were reunited.
It was just that whether it was Chen Heng or Chen Rou, neither of them had changed.
“Back then you said you were going to sleep for a while, and yet you slept for 20 years?”
Siotting on the sofa and looking at Chen Heng, Chen Rou said in dissatisfaction, “There was no news from you for 20 years.”
“There was nothing I could do about it,” Chen Heng said softly with a smile, “Back then, I was unconscious and could only wait to awaken. In actuality, if it wasn’t for something unexpected happening, I would have slept for a few more years.”
“I n aturally herad about that.” Chen Rou said as she looked at Chen Heng.
With her power, she naturally had information about howe everything she had happened, including how Chen Heng had been in the museum.
“Oh you….” She looked at Chen Heng as she shoko her head, “If you didn’t want to be disturbed by others, couldn’t you have found a better place? Why would you bury yourself at an archaeological site?”
“I didn’t’ expect that either.” Chen Heng said as he shook his head.
“Fortunately, those archaeologists thought that you were a special Curse Bearer so you weren’t exposed,” Chen Rou said, “Otherwise, you might have found that you were already dissected by the time you woke up.”
Hearing this, Chen Heng’s mouth twitched.
Thinking to there, Chen Heng sighed and felt quite lucky.
“Regardless, you finally came back.” Looking at Chen Heng, Chen Rou deeply sighed and said, “Now that you’re back, don’t leave again and just stay by my side.”
Chen Heng did not reply and only silently nodded.
In the following period of time, Chen Heng did not leave and stayed by Chen Rou’s side.
Everything went back to how it was like before.
However, after some time, Chen Heng set out again.
By now, more and more Cursed Lands were exploding out, and Chen Heng was forced to act.
Another Cursed Land had invaded a city, and looked like it was about to devour it.
As such, Chen Heng acted.
That day, boundless curse energy covered the city, and corroded almost all living creatures.
However, as everyone watched on, the Holy Son statue had given off immense light, purifying everything under the light.
The curse energy was purified by the light, leaving behind dust and radiance.
After Chen Heng suppressed that Cursed Land, he fused it into his own little world, causing it to become bigger.
However, after that, ev eyrone knew of Chen Heng’s location.
Large numbers of people began to head to the Changyuan City.
Even though no one dared to directly come to Chen Heng, they still put much pressure on Chen Rou.
Some were people she was familiar with, including her friends, as well as superiors and people with special identities.
Even though they did not force her, they still applied great pressure to her.
In the end, she could not help but ask Chen Heng, resulting in him acting.
The Holy Son’s light once again shone out, and the Cursed Lands that had descended to many places were destroyed. Small nations that had become forbidden areas had also been Profound Understanding rified, turning into holy lands.
Even though the living creatures within them had all died, this still had much value—after all, the land was still there, and would recover someday.
Time gradually passed.
Soon, it had been halfa year since Chen Heng had returned.
During this half a year, he had done much—he had destroyed many Cursed Lands and purified many curses.
Soon, everyone in the world knew of the Holy Son’s light, which brought him great benefits, the most obvious of which was faith.
Moreover, as Chen Heng had killed curses, the powerful ones had provided him with more law energy, causing his law body to become stronger.
Over the past hafla year, his strength had increased greatly, while fewer and fewer Cursed Lands descended.
It was as if they sensed something and became wary.
Everyone noticed this, and felt quite pessimistic—this showed that the Cursed Lands seemed to have intelligence.
Despite being curses, the powerful curses within the Cursed Lands seemed to have their own consciousness and intelligence, and knew to avoid this Holy Son.
After all, they were happy to wait.
The history of Cursed Lands invading this world extended back thousands of years, and after such a long period of time, most Cursed Lands still existed.
It could be seen that to curses, time was not a big problem.
They could slowly wait for the Holy Son to disappear.
“They’re quite smart.” Chen Heng smiled and thought to himself.
Right now, his interests were aligned with those of this world’s.
For him, banishing curses not only provided him with faith and law energy, he coujld also obtain Fortune from the world.
As such, as Cursed Lands appeared, Chen Heng continuously acted and dealt with them.
However, it seemed that the Cursed Lands were quite smart, and became dormant again.
Even Chen Heng could not do anything about this.
The Cursed Lands were hidden in the void, and if they did not expose themselves, it would be difficult for Chen Heng to find them.
Chen Heng could not just enter the void and look for them; that would be like looking for a needle in a haystack.
Chen Heng was not prepared to do such a thing.
In response to the Cursed Lands disappearing, some people were delighted and thought that this was their victory.
However, others were worried that the Cursed Lands were simply biding their time.
Chen Heng agreed with this, but there was nothing he could do except accept it.
Following this, Chen Heng turned his gaze to those forbidden areas.
The forbidden areas were places that had been assimilated by Cursed Lands.
Before, many Cursed Lands had descended, and some had failed while others had succeeded.
