Chapter 631 - 355: This is the Companion I Came with_3
Chen Sheng extended his hand,
and lightly brushed along the wall.
The Shelter had good sound insulation.
Ordinary people standing here simply wouldn’t be able to hear the noise behind the wall.
Only Chen Sheng could.
Only with his superhuman sense of hearing, could he hear everything clearly.
But,
his world was exceptionally quiet.
Only the squeaking noises of rats scurrying over water filled the dimly lit underground tunnel.
An odd feeling welled up within Chen Sheng’s heart.
He had confront the King of Heavenly Beings as a normal human.
But why,
after killing the King of Heavenly Beings,
did he standing here feel as though the distance between himself and these ordinary people was growing increasingly vast?
It was even greater than when he was at the World Core.
The wall divided two worlds.
On one side were the crowds, jubilant and weeping with joy.
On the other, stood Chen Sheng, alone, touching the wall.
The exit was close by.
Faint light cast from the outside.
It elongated Chen Sheng’s shadow.
“Forget it.”
Finally,
Chen Sheng smiled softly.
He withdrew his hand and chose to leave.
“Are you really sure you’re Chen Sheng?”
Perhaps the silence had gone on for too long.
The world consciousness seemed a bit anxious.
It looked at Chen Sheng with a tone of skepticism.
“If you don’t believe, just wait.”
“See if the King of Heavenly Beings will show up again.”
Having reached the entrance,
Chen Sheng leapt gently, returning to the surface once more.
He didn’t stop,
instead, he chose a random direction and continued onward.
“So how… did you beat the King of Heavenly Beings?”
The answer made the world consciousness hesitate for a moment before asking again.
“Beat him to death.”
“….”
Chen Sheng’s response killed the conversation.
The world consciousness fell silent once more.
Just like this,
Chen Sheng aimlessly wandered in silence.
About half an hour later,
he abruptly halted.
Hmm?
As if sensing something,
Chen Sheng suddenly turned to look in another direction.
“What’s going on?”
His voice was tinged with confusion.
Then,
Chen Sheng changed directions and headed to the other side of Kyoto.
This time, his pace was fast.
In just a few seconds, Chen Sheng had arrived at a secluded corner of Kyoto.
[Eagle Body Sect]
The plaque for the Martial Arts Hall was brand new.
It looked like it had been carefully wiped not long before.
Chen Sheng, from the other side of Kyoto, had heard the commotion inside the Eagle Body Sect.
He hurriedly ran to see.
Upon reaching the entrance,
Chen Sheng looked a little strange.
Then,
he gently pushed.
With a clang,
the wooden door opened along with the noise.
“ding dong!”
As soon as the wooden door opened,
a beautiful woman in a white dress sprang up from the ground.
A fragrant breeze wafted by.
The warm body embraced Chen Sheng tightly.
Her hair softly brushed against his cheek.
“I missed you.”
A slightly aggrieved voice whispered in his ear,
as the owner of the voice expressed her longing.
“Long time no see.”
Chen Sheng lightly smiled, patting the head of Cactus.
He looked inside the courtyard.
His exceptional sense of hearing allowed him to understand the situation inside the Eagle Body Sect instantaneously.
Zhou Li was cooking near the stove, chastising the interfering Chen siblings.
Shen Ziming was bringing a round table over, placing it on a post.
Li Wuji was arranging bowls, chopsticks and chairs nearby.
And Suzaku,
he was inside the house, sitting cross-legged while watching TV.
With Chen Sheng’s arrival,
the busy people in the courtyard immediately turned their attention to him.
Li Wuji laughed.
“You didn’t think I’d completely forget about our big hero while celebrating, did you?”
Chen Sheng was slightly stunned.
His gaze swept over everyone’s faces.
“You’ve worked hard, Chen Sheng.”
This was said by Shen Ziming.
“You two scram!”
“Kid Chen, come help.”
“Let me show you today what real culinary magic is.”
This was said by Zhou Li.
“Mountain God!”
“Hello, sir.”
These were the Chen siblings.
And Cactus, who was hanging onto him, holding on tighter and tighter.
Chen Sheng laughed.
His distance from ordinary people,
at this moment,
didn’t seem so great after all.
