Chapter 242 How Much Has He Planned?
____________________
"Don't call me father, call me by my first name."
Chu Xiu always felt weird being called his father by an old monster who had lived for who knows how many years.
"Okay!" The person in the painting smiled helplessly, "Are you here to find someone?"
"Well, an old friend of mine came to Heavenly Road."
"They also paid homage to you here."
Chu Xiu pointed to the altar, which was simply built with stones.
The person in the painting nodded, "One is a woman in red, and the other is the daughter of my old friend."
"The woman in red has your original aura, so she should be your Taoist companion, right?"
The figure in the painting has a subtle expression and is amazed.
"My father had many admirers back then, but he was alone and had never had a Taoist companion. I never imagined that you would be so passionate."
Chu Xiu rolled his eyes and muttered: "An old virgin who doesn't understand what it's like to be a woman, just a man!"
The person in the painting has a stiff expression and is about to refute it.
However, just as he was about to speak, he thought of Chu Xiu's identity and swallowed back the words that came to his lips.
He didn't dare to refute his father.
"Did they also go to Tianwaitian?"
Chu Xiu asked.
The man in the painting did not respond immediately. He turned his head and looked into the void, as if he was looking at something.
After a long time.
Then he looked at Chu Xiu and said, "The passage to Tianwaitian has disappeared."
Chu Xiu looked puzzled.
The person in the painting explained: "The passage is actually a space crack that connects to the outer sky. Back then, she and I fought against each other here and broke through the cosmic barrier, leaving behind this relatively stable space crack."
"Then why did it disappear?"
"The energy is gone."
“It takes one hundred thousand years to gather enough natural energy for people to pass through.”
"One hundred thousand years is so long?"
Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes and asked in confusion: "Didn't your old friend's daughter come to Tianqiong Continent through this place?"
"Hahaha--"
The person in the painting looked up and laughed as if he had heard the funniest joke, "The Star Realm has been sealed by my father. Before the power of the seal dissipates, let alone her, the Immortal Emperor's wish to enter is all wishful thinking."
"She came to the Sky Continent only after passing through a space rift a hundred thousand years ago."
"I came to the Sky Continent a hundred thousand years ago..."
Chu Xiu narrowed his eyes.
The person in the painting nodded, also confused, "She has been waiting for a hundred thousand years just to take away your Taoist monk in red?"
"What is her purpose?"
Chu Xiu frowned and looked at the person in the painting, "Don't you know what her purpose is?"
The man in the painting shook his head, "I don't know."
"Don't worry, she is the daughter of her father's subordinate, and she will never harm your Taoist companion."
"I suspect this matter is also related to my father's layout."
The person in the painting added.
Chu Xiu took a deep breath, "How much has he planned?"
The man in the painting shrugged and shook his head, "Only he knows this issue."
"My father has proven his transcendence through reincarnation, and his strength is so powerful that it can conquer all eternity. He has stepped on the long river of time. Looking at the past, present and future, there is no secret for him in this world."
"Do you know how the Immortal Emperors of all races secretly call my father?"
Chu Xiu shook his head, he knew something!
"My father has laid out his plans for eternity. He once played chess with the sky and defeated half of his sons. All races respected and obeyed him. They called him the number one mastermind in the age of mythology."
"The age of myth is over."
"The darkest era for mankind is coming."
"As the Human Emperor at that time, even if he was an enemy of Heaven, all races, and the entire universe, he could still lead his race on a bloody road to survival."
"He has a perverse and violent personality, but he is my most beloved father, the supreme emperor of the human race, and a terrible man who is respected by all races as a god."
The person in the painting has a face full of admiration and raises his arms as if to embrace the whole world.
Chu Xiu's eyes moved slightly, and respect inevitably rose in his heart.
Just imagine.
In the age of mythology, all races were splendid. He used the common people as a chess piece, played against the sky, and defeated half the sky. How amazing his talent must be.
It's a pity that even someone as strong as him was defeated in the end despite the counterattack from Heaven.
What was his mood when he embarked on the road to reincarnation?
Chu Xiu clenched his fists.
The feeling of being a great emperor has disappeared.
Even if he is as strong as him, he will be defeated. My current strength is far from enough.
You have to become stronger.
Of course, I have to deal with the foreign enemies that are coming to the starry sky universe first.
"Chu Xiu, do you want to go to Tianwaitian?"
The voice of the person in the painting brought Chu Xiu's thoughts back to reality.
"If you want to go to Tianwaitian, I can help you."
Chu Xiu shook his head decisively, "I can't leave Tianqiong Continent yet."
The man in the painting stared at Chu Xiu with his dark eyes. He was silent for a long time and sighed softly: "You have too many ties."
"Just like she was back then!"
"If you hadn't cared about me, you wouldn't have ended up in such a miserable state."
Chu Xiu chuckled, "Then do you regret falling in love with her?"
"No, I don't regret it!"
"Does she regret it?"
The person in the painting still shook her head, raised her trembling palms, and covered her chest with her heart. "Her smile before her death was deeply engraved in my mind. She said that she would die without regrets."
Seeing that he was about to lose control of his emotions.
Chu Xiu patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "There will eventually be a way to resurrect her in the future."
The man in the painting nodded, his dark eyes pointed at Chu Xiu, and took a deep breath: "You have indeed changed."
Chu Xiu looked at the locust tree with his hands behind his hands and sighed:
"We have gone through the vast world, and we always have to see countless people and endless scenery. Some people are people who pick up the scenery, and some people themselves are the most beautiful scenery in the world."
"As the Human Emperor, your father is too powerful, knows too much, and has shouldered the fate of too many people, so he doesn't want to be bound to others and can stay away from the scenery in life. He is afraid of the separation of life and death."
"But I'm different~" Chu Xiu retracted his gaze from afar and looked at the person in the painting, "I am just a commoner. Living freely and casually is my ultimate goal."
"I am who I am, and I don't want to live like him."
The person in the painting looked at Chu Xiu blankly, his dry lips quivering, "I agree with your idea, but fate is so overwhelming that sometimes you really can't help it."
"Born in this weird era of heaven."
"You take freedom as your ultimate goal. It seems simple, but in fact it is extremely difficult."
"I understand, so I need stronger power." Chu Xiu stared deeply at the man in the painting, "I want to leave the Heavenly Road and return to the Sky Continent. What are your plans? Do you want to leave with me?"
The person in the painting shook his head, "I want to stay with her here, so I won't be with you."
Chu Xiu didn’t force it either.
Waving his sleeves, he turned and left.
Looking at his retreating back.
"In this life, you will have a harder time than anyone else. You have too many enemies, so be careful."
The voice of the person in the painting is carried away by the wind.
But there was no response from Chu Xiu.
"Father, take care!"
The man in the painting clenched his fists and murmured softly.
He withdrew his gaze, walked to the corpse, and became one with it.
"Xinhuai, I finally met my father..."
The wind blew the branches of the locust tree and swayed, making a rustling sound, as if in response to his words.
