Chapter 75: Chapter 74: Afterward, A Moonlit Night Talk

Translator: 549690339

Zhou Li had a confused look on his face.

“But you…”

He wanted to refute Chen Sheng.

However…

What the kid said seemed to make some sense, but not much.

For a moment, he couldn’t think of how to refute it…

Chen Sheng was not aware of Zhou Li’s inner thoughts.

After some slight exercise, he proceeded to clean up the aftermath.

He went to the sink, and after cleaning the bloodstains on his body somewhat, he went directly into the grocery store to get some large black plastic bags from underneath a glass cabinet.

These bags were highly durable and big enough to fit an adult male.

They were quite useful.

Returning to the backyard, Chen Sheng picked up the limbs and broken arms from the ground and put them into the plastic bags one by one, like he was cleaning up trash.

Once he was done,

Chen Sheng then turned his attention to Zhou Li.

It was approaching winter now.

The old man was standing in the courtyard shivering from the cold, but refusing to go back to his room.

“Alright, old man, go back to sleep.”

“I’ll clean up here.”

Hearing this, Zhou Li snorted.

“You better.”

“Look at you, you’ve only been here for two or three days, and you’ve broken bones on the first day, killed two people on the second day, and killed three people on the third day.”

“What are you up to, having a corpse party?

Huh?

At these words, Chen Sheng was slightly surprised.

How did this old man know that he had killed two people last night?

“Were you not sedated last night?”

“You must be joking- cough, cough.”

Zhou Li raised his head high and his voice trailed off at the end.

But then he was seized by a fit of violent coughing.

“For someone like me who’s been around for a long time, a little sedative can’t possibly… ”

“Then why did you sleep like a dead pig?”

“I was scared!”

Zhou Li held his head high and chest out, perfectly justified.

Chen Sheng rolled his eyes and stopped paying attention to him. He easily picked up the trash bags and prepared to go out.

“Hey.”

At this moment, Zhou Li called out to him.

Under Chen Sheng’s puzzled gaze, he cleared his throat.

“There’s a sewage treatment plant nearby. You can throw the stuff into the discharge there.”

“Remember to tie a few stones to it, or the rotten bags will float upwards.”

Having said that,

Zhou Li went into the room and rummaged through boxes and cabinets.

When he came out, he had several nylon ropes in his hands.

Handing the ropes to Chen Sheng, Zhou Li pretended not to see the strange look on his face.

Afterward,

He walked nonchalantly into the room.

Bang.

The wooden door closed.

“You take your time.”

Chen Sheng looked at the closed door, the corner of his mouth slightly raised.

Interesting.”

He muttered quietly.

Then,

He carried the three trash bags out.

One hour later.

Chen Sheng returned to the backyard.

In his hand, he held takeout food from the entrance of the alley.

“Old man, time to eat!”

He placed the food on the stone table and called out to Zhou Li.

As soon as he heard it was time to eat, the old man moved quickly.

With a few clattering sounds, the room door opened rapidly.

Zhou Li briskly went to the stone table, opened and arranged the containers of food, and started eating.

As for Chen Sheng, he didn’t hurry to eat.

After all, the ground was a mix of red, yellow, and white, like a dye house had exploded.

If he didn’t clean it up, he wouldn’t have much appetite.

Under the bright night sky, the moonlight poured into the backyard.

On one side, Zhou Li enjoyed his dinner.

On the other side, Chen Sheng held a bucket and mop, wiping and scrubbing the bloodstains on the ground.

The scene seemed both bizarre and harmonious.

Half an hour later.

With the cleaning completed, Chen Sheng finally prepared to eat.

As Zhou Li didn’t eat much, there was still plenty of food left.

Fully fed and watered, he sipped tea while appreciating the moon above.

Chen Sheng, on the other hand, was eating deliciously.

There was a rare round moon tonight.

An old man living alone and a young man with no family.

They hadn’t known each other for long, and it seemed there wasn’t much to talk about.

But their interaction,

Was inexplicably harmonious.

After dinner.

“Boss, how do I sign up for the Martial Arts Conference?” As Chen Sheng cleaned up the dinner boxes, he asked.

“Don’t ask.”

“I advise you not to sign up.”

Zhou Li took a sip of tea and shook his head as he spoke.

“Why not?”

“What if I manage to get a Spirit Seed and invite you to have some Spirit

Medicine Soup, you could live a bit longer.”

Upon hearing this,

“You little rabbit!”

Zhou Li glared at him.

“What the hell is this? What the hell is called living longer!” “If you can’t talk, learn sign language!”

Seeing Zhou Li’s annoyed reaction, Chen Sheng did not respond.

He poured himself a cup of tea and happily tasted it.

“It’s not that I don’t want you to go.”

“Your strength is impressive, but the world is much bigger than you could imagine.”

Zhou Li’s mood slightly recovered, and he continued to persuade.

“You should know that although Qi is divided into drop periods and tide rising periods. ”

“But Qi always exists.”

“Some truly extraordinary and talented Qi-sensors, even during a drop period, still possess far superior constitutions.”

“That’s why from time to time in ancient times, there were peerless fierce individuals who had tremendous abilities.”

“For such people, the rising and falling of Qi just represents different progress speed.”

“Otherwise, how would you think the levels like Transforming Power, An Jin, and Light Energy are divided?”

“It’s because even during a drop period, some can achieve your current strength, or even greater.”

“Their starting point is your end. How can you compare with them?”

Hearing this,

Chen Sheng pondered.

“You mean at the Martial Arts Conference, there will be many such people.”

“Well, not many, maybe none.”

Chen Sheng’s fists clenched.

“Do you think you’re funny?” He looked expressionlessly at Zhou Li.

“Don’t get impatient, I haven’t finished.”

Zhou Li subtly moved his stone bench further away from Chen Sheng and then casually continued talking.

“Although such people are one in a million, some slightly lesser ones had awakened before the six months to become Qi-sensors.”

“Moreover, the majority of them are in large martial arts halls.”

“They have a few more months than you, and they basically drink Spirit

Medicine every two to three days, or even daily.”

“How can you compete?”

Zhou Li pointed his finger and poked Chen Sheng’s shoulder.

“Tell me, how can you compete?”

“If you get killed, this old man won’t help you with your corpse.” “The money on me is just enough for my own funeral.” His intention was to persuade Chen Sheng to back down.

He had long been used to living alone.

But now, his life included Chen Sheng.

Although they argue every day and wish to choke each other with their words,

This was the first time Zhou Li felt truly alive, not just waiting for death.

Regrettably,

Chen Sheng had made up his mind.

With the ability of the Panel, he just needs to find a hidden corner and train diligently.

In just one or two years, he’ll become a terrifyingly strong person.

However, who knows how the world will change during this time.

Who can ensure that hiding away is safe?

Are there few people who cultivate quietly for decades in novels, thinking they are invincible, only to be slapped in the face?

Chen Sheng is not a turtle, and he doesn’t like being passive.

Within his abilities, he wants to acquire as many resources as possible and improve his strength as quickly as possible.

That is what he wants to do.

Joining the Martial Arts Conference, he just needs to use the Eye of True View to know roughly the strength of others.

If he encounters someone too strong, he can surrender directly.

Even if he doesn’t get a Spirit Seed, at least he’ll improve the treatment for Eagle Body Sect.

“Don’t try to persuade me, old man. ”

“Just tell me how to sign up for the Martial Arts Conference.”

Upon hearing this,

Zhou Li remained silent for a long time. In the end, he sighed with helplessness,

“Alright..”
