Chapter 482: Chapter 180: Sending Off Guests on the Road to Longevity, Liang Sheng Appears, Senior Sect Members! (4k Monthly Votes)_2
Since Liang Sheng decided to reveal himself to Xiang Chen, he naturally didn’t conceal his situation but only left out some of his ultimate secrets, and roughly narrated the past events.
Nevertheless, as Xiang Chen listened, he became increasingly dumbfounded, and at last, he couldn’t help but open his mouth wide, looking at Liang Sheng with a completely overturned perception.
It turned out that Junior brother had done so much for the Sect back then, merely faking his death to escape. It was just a pity that human efforts could not overcome fate and, in the end, the Desolate Regions were destroyed, all in vain.
“Junior brother, you’ve suffered so much over the years.”
Xiang Chen didn’t blame Liang Sheng for faking his death to escape since he had risked his life to save the three of them in the end, which was already going above and beyond without regard for his own life or death.
Although he still couldn’t understand how his junior brother had managed to fake his death and revive himself and how his cultivation level had skyrocketed so rapidly, since his junior brother did not speak about it, he would not ask any further. There must be a reason for his silence.
“Master probably never expected that the Senior Sect Member who saved us was you, my junior brother. It’s a pity that I won’t be able to see his shocked expression. It must be quite interesting.”
Xiang Chen felt extremely liberated at that moment. He couldn’t help but smile at the thought, having never been as happy as he was today since arriving at the Immortal City.
Once he calmed down, Xiang Chen began to inquire about how Liang Sheng had managed to survive in the Immortal City all these years.
Liang Sheng casually glossed over his current life, concealing all the details about replacing “Chen Quan.”
There were many things Xiang Chen only needed a bit of the “truth” for, and even if it was Xiang Chen, he didn’t want to reveal all his secrets. He always prioritized his safety first and foremost.
“Senior brother, to be honest, the reason I can reveal myself and meet with you today is that I have a method to keep you alive in this world.
Although after this, you will no longer be able to cultivate, and your path to immortality will be hopeless, and you will also lose your flesh and blood body, at least you will still be alive.”
Then, Liang Sheng detailed the method of surviving as a puppet. Xiang Chen listened carefully without interrupting him halfway through.
However, when Liang Sheng finished speaking, Xiang Chen promptly refused his kind intention. Upon hearing Xiang Chen’s decision, Liang Sheng couldn’t help but feel astonished.
“Senior brother, let me tell you another secret. In fact, Huang Yifan is alive and well at this moment, thanks to my puppet method. So you can rest assured that you can do the same, and you will appear no different from ordinary people, without anyone noticing any abnormalities.”
But even then, Xiang Chen still refused with a smile, “No need, junior brother. I am already satisfied to see you now. I have no regrets in this life with your company and the protection of the Sect.
Moreover, birth, aging, sickness, and death are the natural cycle of life. I don’t know what means you have to achieve such a level, but any action against nature must consume your fortune… ”
“That won’t happen…Senior brother, please don’t worry. I know my limits, and this matter will not have any effect on me whatsoever…”
Liang Sheng hurriedly interrupted Xiang Chen, not wanting him to bear any psychological burden. After all, under his method of Seeking Fortune and Avoiding Evil, for reasons unknown, this action indeed had no consequences.
However, no matter what Liang Sheng said, Xiang Chen still refused. “Junior brother, listen to me. I have led a fulfilling life, and I don’t wish to linger in this world with a puppet body.
Although I don’t know how many secrets you hold, the fact that you did not meet us before implies certain taboos.
Now that my lifespan is coming to an end, your appearance shows that you are taking a risk. You must have reasons for your previous actions.
But life and death are inevitable, and life is but a mayfly of Heaven and Earth. It’s better to follow fate and leave this world.
For most people in the Desolate Regions, being able to live until now is extremely fortunate. I really can’t be too greedy.
But if you think you owe it to me, then I have a request before I die. Since you can hide your Qi, I hope that one day you can disguise yourself as a Senior Sect Member and meet with Master without him knowing.
After all, the continuation of the Sect has always been Master’s regret, and with you, our “senior,” I believe Master would be happier in his final moments.
Of course, your safety comes first in any circumstance. Do not disregard your own safety to fulfill my last wish.
Your well-being is all I wish for. Everything else is just icing on the cake. I believe that even Master, once he learns the truth, will not blame you, but be relieved that you are still alive.”
“Senior brother…”
Liang Sheng really didn’t expect Xiang Chen to make such a choice. He had once thought Shen Wuque might make such a decision, given his carefree nature, but he never expected Xiang Chen to do so as well.
Xiang Chen saw the expression on Liang Sheng’s face and motioned for him to come closer. As he looked at him for a long time, he felt more and more relaxed.
Xiang Chen then reached out and patted Shen Wuque’s head. “Junior brother, if you ever have the chance, you could spend more time with our second elder brother. He has never been truly happy during his time in the Immortal City.
Although he appears carefree on the surface, he actually deeply respects and loves his master and you, his junior brother.
Don’t be fooled by his laid-back exterior; he values us more than anything else in his heart. If he were to face the choice between death and living as a puppet now, I believe he would make the same decision as me.”
