Chapter 176: Pride and Childishness
Chapter 1,76 Pride and Childhood
The man looked at Chen Nian with interest and said, "It depends on how you choose."
What makes people feel extremely strange is that he stood on driftwood and seemed to have not accelerated his speed, but his position with the boat seemed to have suddenly been closer.
"We are already in it. Judging from this person's mind, he doesn't want anyone to escape."
Lin Wangbei looked at the man on the sea and shook his head at the general behind him, "With this man's cultivation, even if he wants to escape, it is difficult to escape."
When he and the generals who followed him left Jiankang and fled to the sea, Helan Heiyun had not spread the affairs of Emperor You's descendants in the world. He had no idea about Emperor You's descendants and the later affairs of the Demon Sect. However, this person at the sea had too high cultivation. Even if he had such cultivation, even if he was far away from the Three Saints of the South Heaven, it seemed that he was far superior to any practitioner in the realm of divine thoughts.
Moreover, this person on the sea is obviously not one of the famous strong men in the world.
Such a character calls this young man the master, and the enemies he encountered before seem to be stronger than the man at sea.
Although he did not know that the enemy Chen Nian had encountered before was the Demon Sect, for him, this was a huge doubt, surpassing the ordinary world and the world of cultivators. Such doubts seemed to be a huge threat to the Southern Dynasty and the entire world, and were more important than his redirection to the border army. He wanted to figure out the truth.
"I don't know who you are, but since the practitioner who has been by your side has been dead, and the father who arranged everything you do is no longer in the world, then you are the only one you can rely on."
He whispered to Chen Nian in front of him: "You must be stronger. If you are cowardly, you will die, and pride will die. Then, at least you must be proud in front of the enemy."
Lin Wangbei and his generals certainly had their own pride.
On the battlefield, even when it is certainly impossible to defeat, those proud border troops will still fight to the end.
"Thanks."
Such a sound hit Chen Nian's mind like those confused star energy. He felt that such a sound was useful to him. He thanked him sincerely again, then took a deep breath, looked at the man on the driftwood and said, "I don't understand what you mean."
Compared to the deep thought at this time, the man on the driftwood seemed even more proud.
Although he was wearing extremely ordinary clothes, he carried his hands on his back and had a sense of aura of controlling the world.
His face was also very strange to Chen Nian, because like many people, Chen Nian was only familiar with their breath and their true nature, but there were many of them that Chen Nian had never seen before.
This man was considered dead many years ago. The monk mentioned his name to Chen Nian, but it was too far apart. Chen Nian couldn't even remember his name at this time.
"Why don't you ask me first, why can I find your journey and catch up here?" The man did not answer Chen Nian's question immediately, but asked indifferently.
Shen Nian calmed down a little.
He did not think about the other party's words carefully, but what was circling in his mind was Lin Wangbei's words.
He thought of the monk in white who had a desperate attack before his death.
He thought of the decisiveness of the Demon Sect when it hit him.
He was a little ashamed.
"Why can you catch up with me?"
He looked at the man and nodded, saying truthfully: "What's your name? It's been too long, and I can't even remember your name."
The man on the driftwood was slightly stunned. He seemed to think about this issue for a moment, and then said, "Aren't you afraid that this will seem too contemptuous, which makes me feel a little bit humiliated?"
Chen Nian was also silent for a moment before saying, "I can't control your feelings, and since many years ago, you seem to be no longer controlled by me."
The man on the driftwood slowly raised his head, and Chen Nian's words did not seem to have caused any changes to his state of mind.
However, the distance between him and this big ship seemed to be closer in a strange moment, so that ordinary boatmen on the ship could easily see the wrinkles at the corners of his eyes.
"My name is Gao Huan."
The man looked at the faint clouds in the sky above the ship. He seemed to be recalling, "Many years ago, I was still in the Northern Wei Dynasty, and suddenly someone found me and appreciated my talents and talents, and passed on me the martial arts that were above all the Northern Wei sects at that time. Of course, I was grateful, but what happened next always made me feel extremely humiliated, because the person who said he appreciated my talents and talents at that time did not say that after my practice reached a certain level, I would continue to devote my true energy to you in my practice."
Chen Nian bit his lip and said softly: "I don't know how you obtained the martial arts."
The man who called himself Gao Huan smiled with emotion and said, "Of course you didn't know that when I obtained the martial arts, you were just a baby in a cradle. When I began to dedicate my true energy to you, you were just a child who had just been in the past, but what else could it make me feel more humiliated than this? Even if I don't practice your martial arts, in the Northern Wei Dynasty, I am destined to be the object of many sects to compete for. With my talent and hard work, I must be one of the highest cultivation people in the Northern Wei Dynasty. However, people like me are actually enslaved by a child who had just been in contact with them."
"I know I can't control your thoughts, but I can be sure that no matter how extraordinary your talent is, even if you get the inheritance of the best martial arts in the Northern Wei sect at that time, you will not be as powerful as today." Chen Nian took a deep breath and looked at Gao Huan, "So it was not an accident, but you spent many years later and finally cut off your connection with me. But since that's the case, according to your words, you have obtained powerful martial arts and don't need to be enslaved by me, so why are you still so dissatisfied?"
Lin Wangbei and several of his generals looked at each other, and they all saw the deep shock in each other's eyes.
Whether it was Chen Nian or this man named Gao Huan, they actually said that the best skills among all the Northern Wei sects were not as good as those practiced by Gao Huan. However, the skills practiced by Gao Huan must continuously provide the young man with true energy, which is completely beyond their cognition.
"Of course it was not an accident, and of course I would be dissatisfied, because it took me many years of hard work to finally find a way to cut off contact with you. People like me seemed to spend the first half of their lives on this matter." Gao Huan laughed as if he laughed, "The most important thing is that even if I cut off contact with you, I still can't walk in the world openly, because you found out that I was still alive, so I must naturally kill me."
Chen Nian's face turned pale again, not because of fear, but because he could not argue.
"You are too young, and in your opinion, everything seems to be taken for granted. You won't care about the ideas of those who provide you with true energy every day. But the fact is, I'm afraid many people will not be willing to accept such a fate. In fact, many people have the same ideas as me, but they are not as good as me, they cannot understand the method of cutting off, or they are not brave enough to challenge their own destiny."
Gao Huan looked at Chen Nian with sarcasm and said, "You may not understand until now. Your father asked Tianchanzi to protect you and wander in the sea. Did he be afraid of external enemies at the beginning? What he feared was only those people like me."
"Many people should think that the way to completely change their destiny is to completely exterminate the mother body with the skills like you, or to take over your position and become the real mother body." Gao Huan continued to say slowly.
When he finished speaking, he had already reached the vicinity of the ship, and the waves under him surged.
The waves only surged several feet high, but his body had risen and fell to the bow of the ship in an extremely stable manner.
"So it's not a coincidence."
He looked at Chen Nian with a slight mocking voice and said, "After I found a way to cut off my connection with you, I have quietly come to the sea. Like you, I have been wandering on the sea for many years. Even many times, I have been secretly peeking at your shell ships many times. I have been looking for and waiting for such opportunities."
Shen thought lowered his head.
He felt even more sorry for the white-robed monk.
He could only truly understand after listening to this man's statement that if this man hadn't been unable to defeat the white-robed monk, he would have encountered an unexpected situation long ago.
"In the years, I have thought of countless ways, and I have been looking for the whereabouts of the Nine Nether King Sword that was born today. In my opinion, as long as my cultivation level can surpass Tianchanzi, or as long as I can get this imperial sword, I can defeat Tianchanzi." Gao Huan continued with emotion: "But I didn't expect that after all, there will be another person who wants to defeat his own destiny. Moreover, that person is stronger than Tianchanzi and me. And today, that person should have found the legendary iron coffin and got the Nine Nether King Sword. But it doesn't matter, I finally got you."
"It's really hard. I spent countless efforts to crack the martial arts that have been passed down for nearly a thousand years. Lurking in the sea for many years, we didn't notice it at all." Chen Nian looked at Gao Huan and said, "So you are actually there in that storm."
Gao Huan nodded and said, "That person is too powerful. I don't want to take risks. My target is you. So in the storm, I only pursue your traces. The only accident is that this person discovered the location of the Nine Nether King Sword. If I had known this, I would have tried to kill him even if I took risks."
Chen Nian sneered, "So your idea is to get the skills I practice from me?"
Gao Huan laughed and said, "You finally understand what I mean. I can let you live well and continue to be my nominal master, but you must make some real contributions."
Chen Nian looked at Gao Huan and said, "Do you want me to be your puppet, help you hide from the rest of the people, give you enough time to become stronger than any of them?"
Gao Huan curled his smile, looked at him seriously, and said coldly: "I don't want you to reject my proposal."
"Do you think you can truly control your own destiny in this way?" Chen Nian sneered and said, "Have you ever thought about how the man who got the Nine Nether King Sword locked my aura today? Even if I truly accept your proposal, he will not give you enough time to grow up, and you are just his prey."
"Thank you for your kindness."
Gao Huan looked at him lightly and said, "It's just that I'm much older than you, so I'll be more realistic than you. Before considering whether the treasure is hot, I will try to actually get the treasure into my hand. And... Since I can cut off the connection with your energy, I think maybe I may find a way to escape his perception."
After pausing, he continued with strong confidence, "The key is that I am much stronger than you now. As long as you hand over your skills to me, in this era of spiritual waste, as long as I have constant replenishment of true energy, he will not be able to kill me."
Chen Nian laughed.
He is really happy.
He was a little grateful to Lin Wangbei because Lin Wangbei was right, and people should keep their pride at all times.
Moreover, the conversation with Gao Huan made him feel that there was not no way to be an enemy of the Demon Sect, because since Gao Huan could cut off the connection with his qi and find a way to change his skills, he might be able to do so.
As long as you have the courage, there will always be some solutions.
Just like now, even if he really doesn't have much true energy in his body, he feels that he may not die at Gao Huan's hands.
"I originally thought that I only knew how to practice in the past, and my ideas were really naive, but now in my opinion, you are even more naive than me." He said as he smiled and looked at Gao Huan.
Gao Huan was slightly stunned and frowned unconsciously.
He didn't understand the meaning of Chen Nian.
Chen Nian looked at him and continued mockingly: "How come you are so naive that you feel... I will follow your arrangements as you wish and tell you all the skills I know?"
Gao Huan suddenly changed his face. He suddenly realized that the young man did not seem as willful and useless as he imagined. His eyes suddenly became cold and he said in a cold voice: "Even if you don't want to, I have many ways to pry your mouth open, but you may be worse than death at that time."
"You are advancing and retreating with me. He has said so much that he will not let people leave easily. Then I will lend you my true energy to use it." Chen Nian did not talk to him again, but turned his head and said this to Lin Wangbei behind him.
Lin Wangbei and others had no time to respond. At this time, Gao Huan had suddenly thought of a possibility. Before Shen Nian's voice disappeared, a murderous intent had already fallen directly towards Lin Wangbei behind Chen Nian.
