Chapter 28

~7 min read 1,287 words

Alice rolled her eyes and said helplessly:

"Come on, haven't you already made up your mind about this? Cultivation! If it's true, I want to cultivate too!"

"According to what you said, is cultivation indeed an extremely powerful path?"

Zhongli was somewhat enlightened.

Alice on the opposite side smiled proudly, spirited and spirited:

"Don't you understand the gold content of cultivation? At the peak of the immortal path, I am the sky!"

"Holding the sun and moon in my hand, there is no one like me in the world!"

"Heaven and earth are unkind, treating all things as straw dogs."

"Swallowing a golden elixir into my belly, my life is decided by me, not by heaven."

"When the Yin and Yang are reversed, I will dye the blue sky with my demonic blood."

"I am the Heavenly Emperor, and I will suppress all enemies in the world!"

"Don't you understand what it means to fill the sea with a grain of sand and cut off the sun, moon, and stars with a blade of grass!"

Alice was as proud as a child showing off her knowledge.

It must be said that she really hadn't read fewer of those novels over the years.

Zhongli was a bit headache-prone here.

If what Jiang Yan said was a bit reliable, then Alice was simply as boastful as she could be.

"Are these all words of cultivation? Why are they so..."

"Rebellious? Overbearing and ruthless? Lawless?"

Alice shrugged with a smile.

"No way, those cultivators are all high and mighty, always feeling that they can control everything."

"But it's understandable! Cultivators are going against the sky. If they were really humble and gentle, what would they cultivate?"

"If you don't believe me, ask that Jiang Yan."

"Which cultivator doesn't yearn to reach the peak and enjoy the power of controlling the life and death of all spirits in the heavens?"

"If he really didn't yearn for it, how could he cultivate to this point at such a young age?"

"Remember, every cultivator is greedy, overbearing, and ruthless. Don't look at Jiang Yan's gentle and kind personality."

"In the treacherous cultivation world, if he were really kind, he would have been eaten clean long ago."

"Cultivators are not only strong, but they can also calculate, and they are even more ruthless when plotting against people."

"According to records, every true disciple of a cultivation sect has to experience trials. I don't believe that Jiang Yan has never killed anyone."

"He probably has killed more people than you have ever seen. In the cultivation world, human life is the cheapest thing."

"Many evil cultivators, in order to become stronger, would kill billions of people to refine weapons."

This really gave Zhongli and the others a severe wake-up call.

Cultivators clearly don't care about humans as much as they, the demon gods, do.

Cultivators are high above, each one is a heaven's pride, and they will never see themselves as ordinary people.

So what's the problem with killing a few ordinary people casually?

Anyway, in the cultivation world, cultivators are heaven.

Zhongli and Liuyun looked at each other, harboring some vigilance in their hearts.

Only Jiang Yan, sitting alone on the top of Jueyun Karst sipping tea, twitched his mouth.

With his realm, no one dared to care about him when he was making waves in the Quantum Sea.

In Teyvat, it was even easier to destroy the world casually.

Naturally, he heard it from the moment Zhongli and the others mentioned his name.

And it was precisely because he heard it that he knew how Alice was editing him.

Heaven and earth conscience, Jiang Yan has only been cultivating for one day, right?

How did he come to view all things in heaven and earth as straw dogs?

If it weren't for the fact that Jiang Yan knew this was the trouble caused by the Shushan background he made up, he would have remotely controlled heaven and earth to give Alice an electric shock.

But...

Without making up a long-standing background, how can the many rewards issued by the system in the future be rounded off?

Lies that are true in every sentence are the hardest to crack.

Zhongli was silent for a long time and said softly:

"We will take your reminder seriously. However, where did you get such records? Didn't you say you hadn't heard of cultivation?"

"That's simple."

Alice stood with her hands on her hips with a smile.

"When you have a chance to travel to the modern world, I'll give you a website. It's full of cultivation novels, and they are free. I looked for it for a long time back then."

"..."

Zhongli's face darkened and he said in a low voice:

"So, you saw it in a novel?"

"Well... anyway, it's about the same. Don't be silly and believe everything you hear."

Alice smiled somewhat guiltily.

"In short, you must remember: heaven and earth are unkind, treating all things as straw dogs."

"This is the principle that cultivators believe in. Shushan may not be an evil sect, but it may not be without evil methods."

"At the very least, as far as I know, every cultivator has dual cultivation methods. Tell Shenhe to be more careful."

"If that Jiang Yan cultivates the Dao of Emotion, it's fine; there will always be humanity."

"If he cultivates the Dao of Ruthlessness, you have to be careful."

"Once the Dao of Ruthlessness is cultivated to the end, he won't even care about his parents and relatives. As long as he can become stronger, he can kill anyone."

"I won't talk anymore. Guests are coming to the border. I have to go to work. In short, be more careful, and don't look for me if there's nothing."

"Finally, if you confirm that there is no problem with cultivation, remember to bring Klee over. That little guy should also learn something good."

"Jean is really something. It's just blowing up Wangfeng Mountain! I blew up the city gate and the Stormterror ruins back then, and no one said anything about me!"

The communication ended in Alice's incessant complaints.

Zhongli and the others' doubts were solved in part, but what followed was an even bigger headache.

Ganyu pursed her lips and said in a low voice:

"Jiang Yan won't do anything to Shenhe, and he won't cultivate the Dao of Ruthlessness!"

Zhongli didn't commit himself. If what Jiang Yan said was true, he couldn't possibly cultivate the Dao of Ruthlessness.

After all...

If the sect leader candidate cultivates the Dao of Ruthlessness, isn't that looking for trouble for Shushan?

Zhongli didn't worry about this point.

However, as Alice said, cultivators are ultimately a group of overbearing and lawless people.

Although Jiang Yan performed gently, his overbearing style of swallowing heaven and earth when he passed the tribulation left a deep impression on Zhongli.

This point has already been proven.

Cultivators are indeed overbearing.

If Liyue cultivates on a large scale...

I'm afraid there will be quite a few riots.

For a time, Zhongli didn't know what to do.

The benefits of cultivation are visible to the naked eye, but the disadvantages are also lingering.

To be honest, Zhongli couldn't give up cultivation.

Not to mention erosion, if there is a glimmer of possibility to resurrect old friends, he will do it.

The old men have fought for thousands of years, and now that Liyue is peaceful, they have the right to see the country they fought for.

"Archon, what should we do?"

Xiao asked in a low voice.

"I..."

Before Zhongli finished speaking, his pupils constricted.

On the stone table in front of him, a mirror had quietly appeared at some point.
