Refusing to ascend at the beginning

Chapter 41 Can’t live without “humanity”

The next morning.

A frightening scream suddenly sounded in Qingzhu Tower.

Breaking the hard-earned tranquility after a night of hustle and bustle.

Qingzhu Oiran's maid Mu Xiang was sitting in front of the former's bed, covering her mouth tightly with her hands, for fear that she would scream again if she took her hands away.

Originally, Mu Xiang felt strange when she saw that Qingzhu Oiran hadn't gotten up to wash herself yet. With the latter's clean nature, she always took two or three baths every day.But today it was time to take a bath, but she was still nowhere to be seen.

Is it because you were too tired last night that you haven't gotten up yet?

Mu Xiang thought, then came to the Qingzhu Courtesan's Xianggui, waiting for the latter's call after getting up.

But after waiting for a long time, when it was three o'clock in the morning, there was still no sound in the Qingzhu Oiran's room.Mu Xiang couldn't bear it anymore, so she knocked on the door and called Qingzhu Oiran softly.

However, the room was still extremely silent, as if there was no one inside.

After Mu Xiang hesitated for a moment, she opened the door and entered quietly.

When she came to Qingzhu Oiran's bed, what she saw was a horrifying scene...

The bedding on the bed was messy and stained with blood.

Green Bamboo Oiran lay naked on his back, his face full of horror.

There was a very obvious bluish-black five-finger pinch mark on her neck, which was particularly abrupt compared with her fair skin.

But the fatal wound is not here...

There was a hideous wound on her chest, which was opened directly, so that the bones and flesh inside the chest could be clearly seen.

Yes, only flesh and blood.

There was nothing inside her chest.

Her heart has disappeared...

Qingzhu Oiran, one of the nine leading oirans in Jiukui City, died tragically in her boudoir, and she never closed her eyes.

At the same time, hundreds of miles away on the east side of Jiukui City.

A flying boat is traveling alone in the sky.

On the boat, a man wearing a red cloak was sleeping soundly, leaning on an exquisite wooden box several feet wide and high.

The wooden box behind him was closed tightly, and it was impossible to see what was inside.

But for some reason, there was always a chill coming out of the wooden box.

The small boat carried one person and one box, and slowly moved towards the east until it turned into a black spot and disappeared.

……

……

On the other side, inside Jiukui City.

Su Han and Chen Chuyao asked the waiter to bring some food early. After filling their stomachs, they went out to the port.

Today is the day when the merchant ship to Luwei City sets off. The scheduled departure time written on the ticket is Si hour.

But there is nothing left and right now, it is better to go to the merchant ship and wait.

After arriving at the port, Su Han and the two found the merchant ship with the hull number "B[-]".

This merchant ship is about the same size as the one from Yunwu City to Jiukui City, and its structure is also similar.

The two of them boarded the ship, ignoring the busy deck, and went directly to the ship's building to find their own room.

This time, without the wealthy Cao family, Su Han only wanted a guest room on the second floor.

Compared with the sixth floor where I stayed on the previous ship, the room was twice as small, let alone a side room.

In a small single room, there is only a wooden bed and a set of tables and chairs.

Su Regret didn't care much about the likes and dislikes of the environment, just took a look, and then found a random place to sit down.

Chen Chuyao also has a happy-go-lucky temperament, no matter where she goes or where she lives, as long as the young master is there.

The two chatted for a while, and then the merchant ship suddenly shuddered and set off.

Chen Chuyao did not go to the deck to watch the merchant ship take off. Instead, she sat calmly in the room.

It turns out that if two people get along for a long time, they will indeed gradually get closer in terms of habits.

For the rest of the journey, the two remained secluded and rarely appeared on the ship.

The journey was uneventful until half a month later, when it stopped at the middle point, it was stopped by a group of flying robbers.

This group of flying thieves is not very strong, but they are more disciplined.

They stayed away from caravans with strong ideas.

After collecting some tolls from the weaker caravan, they were fine and left directly.

After stopping at the midpoint city for two days to rest for a while, the merchant ship set off again. The next city was Su Han's destination - Luwei City.

This journey was almost half a month, and we encountered a group of flying thieves in the middle.

This time, these flying thieves became a little greedy. After collecting tolls from some caravans, they went directly to the ship building and knocked on the doors of the guest rooms on the bottom three floors one by one.

Above the third floor, there are aristocratic families who are not short of money and have hired powerful guards to help, as well as powerful heroes and even practitioners.

They don't dare to provoke people above the third floor, but below the third floor there are mostly civilians or rangers of average strength.

The bullying of the weak is fully reflected in this group of flying thieves.

When their blackmail hit the two of them, Su Han didn't take it well.

But Su Han didn't take action, and instead asked Chen Chuyao to fight.

The euphemism is to let her try her hand.

Chen Chuyao was having a fight for the first time in her life. She felt uneasy inside. With a fearful look on her face, she used the Cloud Step to beat the thieves until they cried for their parents.

The many merchants on the deck were stunned.

Unexpectedly, the girl wearing a hat was so good. She defeated many with one enemy and won the battle cleanly. Everyone speculated whether she was a practitioner.

After driving away the thieves, Chen Chuyao retreated into the room again, leaving no chance for anyone to come forward and get close.

After returning to the room, she took off her hat and described the fight to Su Han with great excitement.

How she dodged a dangerous machete attack from a flying thief, and how she used Cloud Step to walk among them, and then defeated them one by one.

Su Xuan smiled and listened, adding a few words from time to time, saying that doing this or that would be better and more efficient.

Chen Chuyao listened carefully and remembered everything in her heart.

As she talked and listened, she suddenly slowly fell into silence.

This was her first fight. After the joy of defeating her opponent for the first time faded away, she suddenly realized, or really experienced it——

She is completely different from ordinary people.

Su Xuan seemed to know what she was thinking, so he comforted her briefly and concisely.

And he told her something seriously. This sentence was what the master had told him a long time ago.

Later, when he led his junior brothers and sisters to get started, he also warned them. At this time, it was Chen Chuyao's turn.

"Even if practitioners like us break away from the shackles of the mundane world and embark on the path of spiritual practice, you must remember that we all come from the mundane world, so don't take ordinary people lightly. As your cultivation level gets higher, The more you must remember this, don’t cultivate to the point of becoming immortal and losing any ‘humanity’.”

Seeing Su Han telling her this matter so solemnly, Chen Chuyao nodded solemnly and silently kept it in mind.

After passing the group of flying pirates, the merchant ship encountered no more obstacles, and soon Luwei City was in sight.

More than a month has passed since we traveled all the way from Jiukui City.

Su Han has completed his mortal transformation. At this time, the second realm is complete, and there is only a thin line between him and the third realm - the artistic realm.

He was not in a hurry to break through this layer of window paper, but instead suppressed it.

Therefore, Su Han's time for practice was greatly reduced, so in his free time, he often fell into deep thought and thought about future plans.

After getting back the relics from his previous life, he was going to the Qing Chi Sword Sect.

The distance from Luwei City to Guicheng, where the sword sect was introduced, would probably take two months based on the speed of merchant ships.

It will be the beginning of June. After taking a rest in Guicheng, you can take the entrance examination of the Qing Chi Sword Sect.

After entering the Qing Chi Sword Sect, it doesn't matter which peak he enters. He can even go to Qiushui Peak. Mo Yuqi is there and he can understand his master's affairs.

It's just that Qiushui Peak only recruits female disciples, this idea is not realistic.

After entering any peak to practice at will, the next step is the focus of his rebirth——

He wants to get a place to represent the Qing Chi Sword Sect in the Immortal Sect Grand Event, and get the top three positions at the Immortal Sect Grand Event!

Only by getting this ranking can you get the opportunity to understand the immortal pearl.

Verify your conjecture from the insights of Yanxianzhu,

This is the purpose of his rebirth.

Only in this way can he try to set the wrong path of ascension out of order and open up a perfect path of ascension.
