Volume 1 Chapter 540 The Calm Before the Storm

Sitting quietly in his own courtyard, enjoying the rare morning time, Xu Luo's face always had a happy smile.

His path is different from others, and the way of enlightenment is to go deep into the most ordinary life, to experience, to perceive, and sublimate after the most reluctance.

Huangfu Chongzhi was most upset because of the affairs of the Divine Domain, and Xu Luo had such a conversation with him.

"What is cultivation for?" asked Xu Luo.

Huangfu Chongzhi replied: "Secular people cultivate to become stronger, and becoming stronger can gain fame and fortune. ”

"What are the people of that sect cultivating for?" Xu Luo asked again.

Huangfu Chongzhi replied: "Seek immortality and explore the unknown." ”

Xu Luo asked, "What do you want to do after you become immortal?"

Huangfu Chongzhi pondered for a long time before he said slowly: "Life." ”

"In that case, isn't it all life?" Xu Luo said with a smile.

"A better life!" said Huangfu Chongzhi.

"I think that no matter whether it is the cultivation of secular people or the cultivation of people in sects, the so-called is nothing more than two words-****!"

Xu Luo said: "People make progress because of ****, and it is precisely because of various demands that they want to go up, and after they are motivated, they have new demands, and then they want to go to the next level!"

Huangfu Chongzhi was silent for a long time before he said: "But many people will lose themselves in the process and forget what their original purpose was. ”

Xu Luo nodded and said: "Just like a beggar, he may only want to fill his stomach at first, and three meals a day is his greatest demand! But as his strength increases, what he wants may become to eat well! Later, he has subordinates, and he can eat and drink spicy food without begging...... Gradually, he found that this could not satisfy his requirements, because when others looked at them, they would always say: look...... It's called Hanako!"

When Xu Luo said this, he raised his head and looked at Huangfu Chongzhi with a smile: "So, when he reaches the end of the day, he will want to be the emperor! Because only when he becomes an emperor, no one in this world dares to laugh at him! However, even if he becomes an emperor, he will find out again...... He's old! He's dying! He doesn't want to die, he wants to live forever...... Therefore, maybe one day, he really gets immortality, and he will still discover new things, and he will still be the same dissatisfied. ”

"Perhaps...... Until one day, when he is really about to die, he will remember that his original dream is just three meals a day, and he will also feel that he was the happiest at that time. Xu Luo looked at Huangfu Chongzhi meaningfully.

Then he said: "In the past few years, I have almost been at home in the imperial capital, and I have not gone anywhere, because I feel that I am very happy! If it weren't for some unfinished business, I would rather stay with my family all the time, because I was afraid of ......."

Xu Luo didn't say what he was afraid of, but Huangfu Chongzhi nodded, looked at Xu Luo and said: "Third child, I understand what you mean, you can rest assured, no matter what, I will not become the kind of person you don't want to see, my biggest wish in this life is only two, one, my children, can grow up healthy and happy; Second, one day, I can live happily with my wife! So, all things, for me, are to serve these two things." I'm not going to mess up the order. ”

Xu Luo stroked his palm and smiled: "Great goodness!"

That night, only the two brothers were drunk!

Since then, the originally decadent and preoccupied Huangfu Chongzhi seems to have changed as a different person, and his temperament has become much more cheerful. The little emperor, who has always been afraid of him, dares to be coquettish with his father when no one is around.

In addition to not being able to see his beloved wife, Huangfu Chongzhi became very happy again, still studying the Danjing, still alchemy all day long, but the spirit of the whole person has become completely different.

The little fat man has always been curious about what Xu Luo said to his eldest brother, but Xu Luo has never told him.

Because the happy little fat man, no matter how smart he is, it is difficult to comprehend those things that are extremely far away from him.

As a natural optimist, with a happy home, although the little fat man's cultivation is progressing rapidly, he has never deliberately cultivated, as for working hard...... It has nothing to do with him.

"Can there be five years of such a peaceful and peaceful life?" Ripple asked in a soft voice as he stood behind Xu Luo.

"What's wrong?" Xu Luo didn't look back and patted the stone bench beside him.

Ripple sat down on the stone bench, and rested his head lightly on Xu Luo's shoulder: "Recently, there has always been a feeling of restlessness, it seems to be ...... It's like something is going to happen. ”

"Huh, your intuition is so smart?" Xu Luo praised with some surprise, and then smiled: "If Huo Tongtian's old man is still alive, I'm afraid he will cry and shout and beg you to be his disciple." ”

"I don't want it!" Ripple sneered slightly, for so many years, she already knew who Huo Tongtian was, and even more knew that Dao Fujun had mixed into the Huo family as a son of the Huo family.

"Intuition is such a thing, mysterious and mysterious, very wonderful. Xu Luo hugged the rippling waist and said with a smile: "It's the people of the ancient clan who are going to call." ”

"Huh, call me?" Ripple was slightly startled and said, "Didn't you mean it...... Ten years?"

"I didn't expect that the Huo family's foundation would be so strong, there would be a second saint, and although the deduction technique is not as strong as Huo Tongtian, it is not weak. Xu Luo sighed slightly, and then said: "This battle will come sooner or later, and it cannot be avoided, so there is a difference of five years...... It's nothing. ”

Because just a year ago, Song Chengfeng and Chu Xiaoya secretly came to the Imperial Capital of the Sky and talked with Xu Luo all night.

Then, early the next morning, the couple quietly left.

The whole process was hidden to the extreme, and in the entire Xu Mansion, except for Xu Luo, there was no second person who knew that there were two top powerhouses in Lu Dao who had been here.

Song Chengfeng and Chu Xiaoya came over to remind Xu Luo of this!

Xu Luo gently held the ripples, and recalled in his mind the words he said to him when the eldest brother and his wife arrived.

"Since you left, the Gu clan has been in chaos for a while, and those families feel that the ancestor of the Huo family is dead, and there is a chance to take advantage of it, especially a few families that are only one line worse than the Huo family, and they are even more agitated, and they want to join forces to destroy the Huo family, and then take the opportunity to take the position!"

"The Huo family was really flustered at the beginning, their shops in various parts of the ancient clan were smashed one after another, and all kinds of businesses were almost all stagnant during that time......

"These, although there are blows to the Huo family, they are not fatal, what is really fatal is that those families started the assassination of the children of the Huo family!"

Song Chengfeng said to Xu Luo with some emotion at that time: "The entire Huo family, everyone is in danger, originally we wanted to attack the Huo family, but looking at the situation at that time, whether we do it or not, the Huo family has no reason to survive, and the building will collapse, irretrievable!"

"Who knows that the Huo family is in turmoil, and almost when the last blow is about to fall, an ancestor of the Huo family was born, which is different from the background used by the Huo family before, this ancestor, as soon as he was born, it was an earth-shattering shock!"

"Overnight, I wiped out two great clans in the Gu Continent that were only one line worse than the Huo family, one of the big clans, and a strong man who had just stepped into the realm of saints, but he was torn off his neck by life, and the bones of his whole body were shattered and died. ”

"This battle directly shook the entire Gu Clan Continent, and all the forces that were originally aimed at the Huo family were all silent......

Song Chengfeng said that when he said the most embarrassing, he was very emotional: "The Huo family is a behemoth, the so-called emaciated camel is bigger than a horse, this is the truth, the background is so profound, it is difficult for outsiders to understand! Even the head of the Huo family and a large group of older people don't know that their family has such an old ancestor. ”

Xu Luo was also very emotional, and at the same time very surprised, admiring the strong foundation of the Huo family.

"And what happened later?" Xu Luo then asked.

"Later, the ancestor of the Huo family deduced and directly told the head of the Huo family, the Central Plains Xingzhou, there are no saints!" Song Chengfeng sighed.

Xu Luo still remembered that his mood at that time also became heavy, he was able to kill a person who was newly promoted to the Sage Realm powerhouse like a chicken, and he was afraid that he had already passed through the Xuan, even if he did not reach the realm of the Great Sage, at least he was a powerhouse in the middle and late stages of the Sage Realm.

This kind of strong man ...... I'm afraid I'm not an opponent.

It was still Chu Xiaoya, who glanced at Song Chengfeng at that time, and said: "Don't listen to your eldest brother scare you, it's true that the Huo family is a saint, but it is simply that the qi and blood are exhausted, and they are decayed to the point that they are not good, and they were born at that time, also because they have not much longevity, and they can't bear to see their descendants being destroyed, so they forcibly hang a breath and destroy the two families. ”

When Xu Luo heard this, he didn't have time to blame the eldest brother for scaring people, but he breathed a long sigh of relief.

"It's just that this news is very secretive, and we finally found out about it. After that battle, the families of the Gu clan who were hostile to the Huo family were all shocked, although they also heard from various channels that the saint of the Huo family might have been seated, but they did not dare to act rashly...... "Song Chengfeng said.

Xu Luo laughed: "Are you afraid that once you make a move, there will be another such old monster in the Huo family?"

Song Chengfeng also laughed, nodded and said, "That's the case." ”

"However, after the Huo family escaped this catastrophe, they will definitely set their sights on the Central Plains Xingzhou, you haven't moved for a few years, and they all know that the speed of your improvement should not take more than a year, and they will directly attack the Central Plains. Song Chengfeng's voice was a little heavy, because even he would feel pressure in the face of a terrifying behemoth like the Huo family.

"When the time comes, your eldest brother and I will not stand idly by!" Chu Xiaoya felt sorry for her younger brother, but directly gave Xu Luo a reassurance.

"Also, that girl named Su Qianqian, I've seen her. When Chu Xiaoya said, there was a bit of **** in her eyes, and she smiled at Xu Luo.

Xu Luo was a little embarrassed at the time, but he could only bite the bullet and ask, "Is she okay?"

Chu Xiaoya glanced at Xu Luo: "Should I say that you are ruthless, or should I say that you show mercy everywhere?"
