Chapter 0571: Mood Collapse
Bai Qi silently followed behind the old man and walked into the main hall of their Huangfu family, but the surprise in his heart was never eliminated, although he had guessed that Xiao Wu might have something to do with the Huangfu family, but he never expected that Xiao Wu would have such a deep relationship with the Huangfu family.
It seems that Xiao Wu should have done something unforgivable in the family, so he escaped from the Huangfu family, and was finally selected by himself to enter the dark river and become one of his twelve main generals.
This kind of luck, Bai Qi doesn't know whether to say it's good or bad.
And Bai Qi never expected this result, let alone thought that Xiao Wu would have a relationship with the Huangfu family, this time he really took the initiative to jump to other people's territory.
But this is not to blame Bai Qi, there are no other forces in the Great Northwest that Bai Qi investigated before, that is because within the scope of the ancient martial arts world, there are indeed no forces that can be compared with the dark river, but these forces do not include these ancient immortal cultivation realms.
"Bai Xiaoyou, are you nervous?" The old man couldn't help but ask when he saw that Bai Qi's face was a little ugly, and a trace of doubt appeared in the depths of his eyes.
Bai Qi looked up at this old man, an old man with an extremely standard face and extraordinary bearing, and a living saint, a real saint, not just the so-called sub-saint.
In front of this old man, as long as he wants to kill someone, then there is no one who can't be killed, the dignified saint is strong, and the following are all ants, there is nothing wrong with what he said.
So Bai Qi is just an ant in front of the old man, fortunately this old man didn't have the intention of killing him, otherwise, Bai Qi would not be able to escape the old man's palm even if he tried his best, even if he gambled with his life.
"Don't be nervous, thank you seniors for your concern. Bai Qi smiled faintly, he was indeed a little nervous in his heart, in the face of the unknown situation, and the family he didn't know anything about, how could he not be nervous?
In addition, the ancient immortal cultivation realm that had never appeared before suddenly chose to see him this time, he must have what he wanted, and if he treated him politely first, it would be impossible to kill him, otherwise there was no need for them to do more.
Thinking of this, Bai Qi's heart was relieved, and the tension disappeared completely.
The old man's eyes looked at Bai Qi with strange and complicated eyes, and then the corners of his mouth flashed a hint of curvature, he seemed to see something, but he didn't say it.
"Bai Xiaoyou has also seen the strength of our Huangfu family, how do you feel?" the old man's face showed some interest, and he wanted to know Bai Qi's thoughts and evaluations.
After Bai Qi hesitated and thought for a while, he said to the old man: "Very strong, the power of the ancient immortal cultivation realm is worthy of being the ancient force, which makes me admire it very much." β
"Hahaha, it's not that exaggerated, right?" The old man couldn't help laughing when he heard Bai Qi's high evaluation, and kept nodding his head with his beard on the side, because what Bai Qi said entered his heart.
He has always felt that the Huangfu family is one of the strongest in the entire ancient immortal cultivation world in China, he is proud of such a force, and for Bai Qi, their Huangfu family is an insurmountable barrier.
This kind of pride and self-confidence made Bai Qi a little uncomfortable, especially the old man raised his head with his chest up, squinting his eyes and wiping his beard, and that kind of smile made Bai Qi very uncomfortable.
But even if he was uncomfortable, he couldn't do anything, because for Bai Qi, he suddenly felt a little weak, and for these saints, Bai Qi was just an ant.
The initial enthusiasm for cultivating immortals, at this moment, suddenly decreased a lot.
Especially after seeing the Huangfu family, seeing these heaven-level and emperor-level powerhouses all over the ground, and seeing the pride and conceit of the old man, Bai Qi lost his enthusiasm for cultivation even more.
He even sneered in his heart with some self-deprecation, he was thinking about the task of saving the earth? That wasn't what he could do, was it?
Now that these powerhouses of the Ancient Immortal Cultivation Realm are here, he can relieve himself from psychological pressure, and he doesn't have to give himself so many so-called heroic thoughts, he is just a very ordinary person, no big deal.
Bai Qi secretly decided that after leaving the Huangfu family, he would no longer pursue any realm excessively, and wouldn't it be better to take his own women and children and live a comfortable life in a peaceful corner?
Thinking of this, Bai Qi's heart suddenly relaxed a lot, what deceit, what intrigues, it has nothing to do with him.
The old man squinted his eyes, looked at Bai Qi a few times, and then frowned, as if he felt the changes in Bai Qi's heart, lost some confidence and motivation, and suddenly the old man felt a little uncomfortable in his heart.
If it was because of his performance just now that this young man lost his life goal and motivation, then he really stabbed a hornet's nest, after all, he didn't intend to make Bai Qi lose motivation at all, it was just an emotional stimulus.
If it was really because of his arrogance and self-confidence, the old man would really feel guilty and uneasy, and just last month, a mysterious saint visited him and asked him to pay more attention to Bai Qi.
That's why there was this meeting, if this made Bai Qi lose motivation, it was really... It's too much attention!
"Bai Xiaoyou, do you know what the purpose of cultivation is?" the old man took a deep breath, suppressed a trace of tension in his heart, and asked Bai Qi.
Bai Qi's face was stunned, then he looked at the old man, and then fell into deep thought.
He had just decided to give up continuing his cultivation and start living a life free of contention, but this old man suddenly asked him what the purpose of his cultivation was, which made it difficult for him to answer for a while.
Seeing that Bai Qi didn't speak or answer, the old man looked pensive, so he said to Bai Qi: "Cultivation is to make one's life better and let the people around him live better." β
"If a person takes off another shoe because his shoe is dirty and tries to protect the other clean shoe, the end result will be that both feet will get muddy. β
"People, I always think that satisfaction is happiness, contentment and happiness, but I don't know that in such a world, in this wave of not advancing or retreating, can we really be contented and happy?"
"Former enemies, friends, rivals, strangers, will bite you and leave you at peace. β
"So since you have chosen the path of cultivation, you must have a beginning and an end, and strive to go to the opposite high ground in order to be able to go ashore completely and safely, Bai Xiaoyou, what do you think?" The old man's words were very ordinary and plain, but they contained a lot of truths.
Bai Qi listened to his words, and his forehead was suddenly covered with cold sweat, and the old man's words went straight to his heart, making him feel that the ideas he thought were too naΓ―ve.
If it is really because of the arrogance and self-confidence of a saint that his cultivation enthusiasm is hit, then in the end, whether it is himself, or the people around him, he will definitely die without a place to be buried.
Even if you want to be content and happy, and want to live a secluded life, it's a pity that your opponents and enemies will never see you so comfortable, and at that time the enemy will become stronger, and the opponent will become more and more powerful, and you will still be so uncompetitive.
At that time, it is you who will die.
The old man's words made Bai Qi break out in a cold sweat, and the retreat he had just now completely disappeared, and his heart once again poured into a strong sense of motivation and belief.
The old man was right, since he chose this path, it was only safe to go to the opposite high ground, otherwise he might fall into it at any time.
At worst, your feet are covered in mud, and at worst, your life is lost.
"Boy, thank you for the teaching, kid understands. Bai Qi's face showed excitement, and there was a lot of gratitude and fear.
The old man nodded slightly, smiled at Bai Qile, and then glared at Xiao Wu who was standing aside, drooping his head and not speaking, the angry old man really wanted to slap him a few mouths, but when he thought that this was his youngest son, he could only sigh, reluctant.
"Bai Xiaoyou, when did you meet Huangfu Yun?"
