Chapter 82 Confessing
Qian Renxue learned of Li Luochen's return to Tiandou City the moment he stepped into the city, and she began to question her own existence.
"A genuine fifteen and a half years old, passing the Slaughter City test? In just a year and a half? Tang Hao, the strongest genius of the Haotian Sect, took five years to pass the Slaughter City test."
That woman took four years to pass through the City of Slaughter, while Li Luochen only took a year and a half? Moreover, his soul power is definitely lower than that of Tang Hao and that woman back then.
"This is terrifying! How can he be so strong? I, Qian Renxue, possess the strongest talent and the strongest martial soul, yet I am still inferior to him?"
Qian Renxue's heart was filled with complex emotions. She had always been extremely confident in her talent, and apart from her mother, who did not acknowledge her and possessed extraordinary talent, another one had appeared.
Moreover, he is four years younger than Qian Renxue. Li Luochen is currently at level 59, while Qian Renxue has only reached level 65 in the past year or so. This is only because she has squeezed out a lot of time to cultivate diligently. She has not slacked off in her cultivation during this period.
She was about to be overtaken on a bend, which was incredibly frustrating for her.
"No, no, no, I am his superior, how can I be weaker than him? I must summon him as soon as possible, otherwise when he surpasses me next time, how will he respect me as the young master?"
I need to elevate the young master's and my superior's status first, otherwise he'll look down on me. Yes! That's essential, otherwise he'll definitely despise me, his superior whose cultivation level is lower than his.
Qian Renxue imagined it all. Sure enough, being love-struck is hereditary. She just didn't know it herself. Ever since she took Li Luochen under her command, she had never stopped keeping up with his information and knew his general direction.
When a woman becomes interested in a man, she's already close to falling for him. However, these are all just Qian Renxue's own imaginations, and self-inflicted imaginations are the most fatal.
"Ahem, Uncle She, go and summon Li Luochen, one of my men. I need to see him."
Qian Renxue's cold voice rang out, and She Long, the Serpent Spear Douluo hiding in the shadows, replied, "Yes, Miss. Ci Xue, take good care of Miss." With that, the Serpent Spear Douluo left.
the other side,
Li Luochen and Dugu Yan were enjoying their time together. This separation lasted for a year and a half, and they had only been together for a little over three years. Half of their time had already been spent apart.
"Yanzi, I really miss you. That place, the Killing City, is no place for a human to live. I told you..."
Li Luochen, who was usually taciturn in the Killing City, has now opened up. The Killing City was too oppressive, and he had no one he could confide in. His heart grew colder and colder, and the number of people he killed caused him to become somewhat mentally unstable.
Indeed, Li Luochen was completely inhuman in the City of Slaughter. After all, he was just an ordinary person with good cultivation talent. He had already taken countless lives, and his mindset had become problematic.
Carrying too many lives can numb one, but Li Luochen suddenly began to doubt himself, a sense of fear creeping in. It was a conflict between his cold, numb, and apathetic personality and his positive, upright one, making him somewhat vulnerable.
Dugu Yan listened quietly to Li Luochen's story. At this moment, she felt that Li Luochen had become somewhat vulnerable. After all, he had just come from such a place, and it was difficult for him to change so quickly.
Dugu Yan held Li Luochen's head and patted his back gently, saying, "Alright, alright, everyone says those are damned fallen soul masters, and if you don't kill them, they'll kill you. It's okay, it's okay."
Li Luochen was feeling sleepy and fell asleep in Dugu Yan's arms. He had been on high alert in the City of Slaughter, not daring to relax for a moment. Now, he found peace of mind with Dugu Yan and fell into a deep sleep.
"Sigh, I always thought you were precocious, but I never expected you to be so vulnerable and sentimental. It seems that awful place had a big impact on you. Go to sleep, you'll get better slowly." Dugu Yan stroked Li Luochen's cheek. She couldn't believe how he could have stayed in that awful place. But now she didn't need to worry about that anymore. It was best that Li Luochen was back.
Li Luochen, fast asleep, dreamt of many happy things, all of which happened before he went to the City of Slaughter. He felt relaxed and happy in his dream, and slept very soundly.
Li Luochen didn't wake up until the afternoon of the next day. His eyes no longer held the vulnerability and confusion of the day before. A good night's sleep had restored his optimal emotional state. This relaxation had also allowed his killing intent to be contained, ready to be released at any moment. (That's just how the author is; no matter how bad his mood or emotions are, a good night's sleep will fix it, and he'll wake up feeling much better.)
Li Luochen stood up and walked outside. He felt completely refreshed after the sleep, and his killing intent was contained within his body. He only needed to rest quietly and steadily for about three months to recover, which was much better than the original plan of six months.
Li Luochen arrived in the living room. Dugu Bo had already returned, while Dugu Yan sat to one side, and Dai Tianxing and Lin Chengkun stood there waiting for something.
When Li Luochen entered the living room, everyone's eyes turned to him.
"It's good that you're alright, kid. It's good that you're back." Dugu Bo had originally intended to give him a good scolding and teasing, but all he could say was, "It's good that you're back." Sure enough, a thousand words couldn't compare to just one sentence: "It's good that you're back."
"Yes, they're back, Grandpa. Do you know these two? They're my subordinates whom I rescued from the City of Slaughter. They're both quite skilled and young, so I brought them back." Li Luochen said simply, and then briefly explained the backgrounds of Dai Tianxing and Lin Chengkun.
"Yes, I know. I've already seen these two. They're both in their forties, and their soul power is above the Soul Saint level. One of them has even reached the level 80 bottleneck. You have good eyes, kid. Their cultivation is quite good."
Dugu Bo had already seen these two. As for their rebellion? Heh, they wouldn't be able to pull any tricks in front of Dugu Bo. Besides, these two had already taken a deadly poison, and without taking the antidote regularly, they would surely die.
Next, Li Luochen chatted with Dugu Bo about everyday things, things related to the Killing City, and the upcoming arrangements.
Li Luochen wanted to completely suppress his killing intent here, or as their Haotian Sect would say, "wash away the superficiality." However, Li Luochen didn't have to go through the same trouble as them, as he was learning etiquette and musical instruments.
Li Luochen didn't need to go to Yuexuan. He could relax at home by talking to Dugu Yan, painting, practicing calligraphy, and doing Tai Chi.
He doesn't need to learn aristocratic etiquette. He's not an aristocrat, so why should he learn it? He doesn't like the rules and regulations of aristocracy; he just wants to be carefree and independent.
As for musical instruments, Li Luochen can play the piano, but there are no pianos in this world. He learned to play the piano in his previous life through an extracurricular class, and he even has a certificate.
In any case, Li Luochen can regulate himself and restrain his murderous aura without leaving home.
Let's set this up: killing so many people must have caused mental problems, leading to disregard for life and indifference in various ways.
But why do we become vulnerable? It's somewhat similar to a second wave of war phobia, where fear arises and we start to doubt ourselves.
Simply put, his Dao heart was somewhat damaged. Too much rigidity leads to breakage, and he needed to release his emotions. After all, Li Luochen was just an ordinary person. In a year and a half, he killed more people than he had known in two lifetimes combined. I think it's normal for him to suddenly feel fear.
