Little Su’s head hurt. Bai Su led her to a mountain residence near the sea of clouds. The spiritual energy here was abundant, so it was much better than in the palace.

Meng Meng felt strange when she returned to the old place. She had harbored evil thoughts after leaving this place, but before she could say them out loud or display them, Xia Ji’s embrace and his words of ” be my disciple ” had dispelled all of them.

She was arranged to stay next to Little Su in a small courtyard.

Spring is deep,

Green trees and red flowers,

The sea of clouds reflected the twilight, turning into a pale red beast tide that galloped under their feet without stopping.

In the afterglow, two people were strolling on the clouds.

Xia Ji was on the right, and Xu Lingling was on the left.

Xia Ji briefly explained that he had gone to the Tribulation Lands and returned from the Tribulation Lands to the Reincarnation Stage when the Reincarnation Stage was activated. He was lucky enough to preserve his memories and powers.

After all, it was the law of the universe to be born into the human world and die in the cycle of reincarnation.

Therefore, no matter where you are, as long as you die, you can go to the Reincarnation Stage.

Xu Lingling felt very complicated.

For a moment, he didn’t know what to say.

She had not seen her teacher for more than a thousand years, and too many things had happened in this thousand years. She already had her own structure.

“Teacher, are you going to punish me?” she asked.

He blurted out these two words…

After all, even though his teacher was a reincarnation, his memories and power were still intact. Wasn’t he still his teacher?

Since that was the case, why was she so obsessed with fame?

Then, he would be a teacher, a fellow daoist, a teacher, and a friend.

I accept your karma and open my fruit. I respect you as my master and respect myself.

Xia Ji glanced at her and understood what she was thinking. He didn’t try to avoid her name. After thinking for a while, he realized that Xu Lingling was talking about the massacre when she first met him in the Imperial Capital a year ago.

“Since you didn’t do anything wrong, why should you be punished?” he asked.

“Why not?”

“A gentleman can pass away, but he cannot be trapped. He can be deceived, but he cannot be deceived.”

It meant that a gentleman could die for his ideals, but he could not be framed.

A gentleman could be bullied because of his persistence and not because of his weakness, but he could not be fooled.

What was framing?

Moral kidnapping was framing.

What was fooling?

He shouted double standards, played sophistry, and talked about benevolence, righteousness, and morality. His actions were not as good as prostitutes. He was fooling them.

Kill those who trap me, kill those who fool me. Only by cultivating this kind of heart can one reach the world from oneself to others.

If you don’t do well yourself, how can you talk about others and the world?

Everyone has their own path. You and I are only sharing one path. I am using my experience to guide you on this path. But if you think that I should continue guiding you, then you are not worthy of my guidance.

If you slander me, fool me, or frame me because I no longer want to lead you, just kill me.

That was all.

This is called good.

Use your own good to infer the good of others and ask the good of the world.

The questions and answers passed.

Therefore, even if Xu Lingling didn’t kill him that day, Xia Ji would have killed him anyway.

Anyone who was bound would be confused.

Any confusion is a mistake.

Therefore, when it was time to kill, Xia Ji would not show mercy, nor would he care about what others said or thought.

To him, it was not impossible to massacre a city.

But when he shouldn’t kill, he wouldn’t care about what others said or thought.

This is not the way of heaven.

Gong Gong said.

It was his own Dao.

Xu Lingling pondered for a long time and seemed to have understood something.

The two of them walked on the white cloud path of the Wan Jian House.

The grass was green, and the mist was condensed into beads. Facing the evening sun, it sparkled.

After a while…

“A thousand years ago, I went to the Land of Ice to deliver a letter. After that, I stayed with Martial Aunt.” Senior Aunt was very, very strong and domineering, but she was too kind…

I found an opportunity to say it a few times. Martial Aunt admitted that what I

said made sense, but she still maintained her original appearance and did not change at all.

During the three hundred years I spent with Martial Aunt, I gained a huge benefit, which was to fuse with Snake, one of the three Gods of the Church of Wolf, Snake, and Death.

As for my avatar, it was originally a nine-headed snake. Now, there are ten of them. The last one is the God of the Church, the snake that devours everything. Therefore, my current body is no longer a pure human, but a monster that has become one with the snake.”

“You’re not a monster,” Xia Ji said. “I am,” Xu Lingling said.

He did not continue.

Because both Xia Ji and Xu Lingling were speaking of their own Dao, and both of them were right.

Xu Lingling continued.

“In the Mountain River Tribulation, the mountains and rivers will shatter, and the continents will shift. Everywhere is filled with danger, and the road will be difficult. If you’re not careful, you’ll be swallowed by the dormant Mountain River Demon.

At that time, the Mountain River Demons varied in strength. The weaker ones could even suppress ordinary Level 12 cultivators, while the stronger ones could devour them without hesitation.

700 years ago, I was helping Senior Aunt when I happened to encounter a powerful Mountain River Demon. That demon chased after me while I kept running. After running for a long time, the land shattered and the Mountain River Demon chased after me. I could only find a place to hide first and didn’t dare to use my extraordinary power for fear of alarming the Tribulation Demon.

After the continent stabilized, I returned to the north. However, there was no more ice and snow in the north. It was obviously a strange place that I had never seen before. Fortunately, I met Junior Brother Yu Long and Junior Brother Du Bai, so I stayed.

After that, I went around to inquire about the other junior brothers and sisters, as well as the news of the master’s aunt, but I didn’t find anything.

Later, news came from the mortal world that there was another continent in the east of the Cloud Continent, so I wanted to go there..
