I Attained Invincibility In The Real World-Chapter 633 - 356: Inquiry and Trivial Matters at Dinner_2
Chapter 633: Chapter 356: Inquiry and Trivial Matters at Dinner_2
Even the most reserved sibling among the Chen family, Chen Bi, gradually loosened up.
At this moment,
he covered his sister’s ears while she struggled to shake them free.
He whispered to the Vermilion Bird about some topics not suitable for children to hear.
Zhou Li, unable to bear it anymore, angrily reprimanded the two.
Only then did they stop, with embarrassed faces.
It went on like this.
Everyone chatted, joked and talked about daily life.
No lengthy lectures, no solemn expressions of gratitude.
Nobody mentioned anything about the Tianren Clan or any other formal matters.
This gathering, brought together for Chen Sheng,
proceeded as he had hoped.
Chen Sheng quickly joined in the fun.
While dealing with Cactus’s enthusiasm,
he and Shen Ziming talked about their meeting in Fuhai Province.
Everything,
made Chen Sheng feel alive again after a long time.
The “alive” here
is not just living as a life form,
but as a human being.
“….”
Chen Sheng raised his glass.
Gazing at the swaying wine, his eyes were slightly contemplative.
In fact,
during these several months,
there has been a lingering question in his heart.
He wondered about what he was fighting for.
It’s not that he had to find a reason for fighting.
But during this period,
every time he finished off one enemy, he would encounter a new one.
It seemed as if there was an invisible force pushing him to become stronger and keep defeating enemies.
If someone wants to kill me,
I naturally have to find a way to kill them first.
That’s the reason Chen Sheng had given himself.
However,
that’s not what he truly wanted.
He had no choice but to face it.
And only he could face it.
But now,
Chen Sheng looked at the people around him.
He saw Vermilion Bird with his lewd smile, trying to put his arm around people. freēnovelkiss.com
He saw the helpless expressions on the faces of Shen Ziming and Li Wuji.
He saw Chen Danggui, sulking because her brother just covered her ears.
He saw Zhou Li, who was scolding Vermilion Bird.
And then there was…
Chen Sheng turned to look at Cactus.
He looked at the girl sitting next to him, who had moved her chair closer throughout the dinner, and was now pressed against him.
The corner of Chen Sheng’s mouth unconsciously curved up.
At this moment,
he felt like he had found a reason to fight.
Although it wasn’t enough,
he didn’t want to lose these friends in front of him.
And he didn’t want to see his loved ones getting hurt.
“Let’s have a drink.”
So,
Chen Sheng slowly raised his glass.
Everyone’s eyes fell on him.
He thought for a moment,
then spoke slowly.
“To world peace.”
Everyone laughed.
“To world peace!”
At this moment,
the moonlight grew thicker.
Silver light spilled onto the wine glasses,
seeming like nectar.
The clinking sounded like music.
And then,
the wine went down their throats.
——————
That night,
various parts of the capital city were still bustling.
Although it wasn’t a festival celebration,
it could still be considered a day of reunion.
But compared to the outside world,
Eagle Body Sect had returned to its usual tranquility.
Li Wuji and Vermilion Bird had to go back to the Martial Arts Association to deal with other matters.
Shen Ziming needed to return to Yihe Gate to meet with his comrades.
Chen siblings were doing their daily training,
with Zhou Li supervising them.
As for Cactus…
As expected,
she was still following Chen Sheng around.
“You should go read a book.”
“I have something to do.”
After gently pushing Cactus to the living room sofa,
Chen Sheng prepared to leave Eagle Body Sect to search for World Consciousness.
Before the gathering began, it had asked Chen Sheng to let it go.
For one, it was not appropriate for it to participate in such events.
Secondly,
World Consciousness wanted to investigate if the Heavenly Beings’ King was truly dead.
Chen Sheng didn’t impose any further restrictions.
With his abilities,
no matter where World Consciousness was, he could sense it.
The dinner had ended,
so Chen Sheng set out to find it and clarify his doubts.
He arrived outside the Eagle Body Sect.
He carefully sensed his surroundings.
Quickly,
he located World Consciousness.
Without causing any disturbance,
he disappeared as a gentle breeze blew past.
When he reappeared,
he was thousands of kilometers away from the city.
Whoosh——
“You seem to like the beach a lot?”
Under the night sky,
Chen Sheng leisurely walked over to the World Consciousness.
Many people were gathered here on the beach.
Surfing.
Barbecuing.
Or dancing to the music.
Chen Sheng couldn’t help but sigh.
In terms of enjoying themselves,
humans really were endlessly efficient and energetic.
Within just a few hours after leaving the shelter, the beach had already regained its former liveliness.
“Yes.”
Facing Chen Sheng’s question,
World Consciousness gently nodded.
“I’ve been to countless worlds.”
“But do you know?”
“In most of them, the ocean is a synonym for danger.”
“There are very few worlds like yours, where people build various entertainment facilities by the seaside.”
“I like this calm sea.”
His gaze never left the surface of the water.
“There won’t be any weird creatures suddenly emerging.”
“Nor will there be remnants of weapons, armor, or corpses, and the seawater won’t emit the stench of decay all year round.”
“How nice….”
World Consciousness whispered in exclamation.
Suddenly,
He turned his head to look at Chen Sheng, pointing to the ground around them with a frown.
“It’s really you humans who love littering.”
Chen Sheng looked down.
At his feet,
a few barbecue skewers were quietly lying there.
“Ahem.”
“Let’s talk about the important things.”
Even for Chen Sheng,
there were occasional things he couldn’t refute.
“Fine.”
World Consciousness didn’t say much either, knowing his cue.
He just looked up at the sea again.
During Chen Sheng’s meal, he ventured to the other side of the planet.
The former location of the World Core.
There,
he saw the wreckage of the former World Core.
He also saw the dissipating World Energy, continuously gathering, brewing a new World Consciousness.
“So…”
“The Heavenly Beings’ King is really dead.”
World Consciousness felt extremely fortunate.
When he confirmed this news himself, Chen Sheng wasn’t beside him.
Because it would have been too undignified.
It would have only affected his image.
“Do you know what this means?”
He turned to look at Chen Sheng.
Without waiting for his questioning, he quickly gave the answer.
“It’s like a fully armed, highly trained elite soldier with the most advanced technology going to kill an ant.”
“And then he’s killed by the ant.”
“Can I ask, how did you do it?”
World Consciousness’ analogy was, as always, very straightforward.
He stared intently at Chen Sheng.
The other party, a being born in a low martial world, had achieved power comparable to the strong in high martial worlds.
This made him extremely curious.
What did Chen Sheng rely on?
At this moment,
Chen Sheng’s status in World Consciousness’s heart had already risen to an extremely high level.
From the original low martial world genius.
Now,
he even surpassed the prodigies he had seen in high martial worlds.
Thus,
the current question.
“Because I’m awesome.”
Unfortunately,
Chen Sheng didn’t want others to know about his beyond-limit body and panel.
His answer was crude,
ywt indisputable.
It also let World Consciousness know that the other party didn’t want to tell him his secret.
“Would you like to——”
Just as World Consciousness was about to continue, Chen Sheng interrupted him.
“I’ve listened to you babble for so long, it’s my turn to ask now.”
“Uh… okay.”
Already knowing Chen Sheng’s personality, World Consciousness didn’t mind the interruption.
“You ask.”
He smiled slightly,
Making a “please” gesture to Chen Sheng.
“Is the Heavenly Beings’ King really dead?”
Chen Sheng asked the most critical question and began to recount his battle with the Heavenly Beings’ King.
Omitting the part about his power increase,
Chen Sheng only mentioned his repeated killing of the Heavenly Beings’ King and absorbing the energy within him.
Although the energy the Heavenly Beings’ King had received was now trapped in his body,
The words he spoke before death didn’t seem like the last words of a dying person.
Therefore,
This question was always on Chen Sheng’s mind until he asked it just now.
And while listening,
World Consciousness became increasingly astounded.
“To be honest, I also tried to guess how you killed the Heavenly Beings’ King.”
“But I never thought… it would be so simple and crude.”
In the end, he looked Chen Sheng up and down, clucking in wonder.
“But let me tell you the answer first.”
At this point,
World Consciousness looked at Chen Sheng and shook his head slowly.
“The Heavenly Beings’ King cannot die.”
“To be more precise,”
“As a native being of this world, he is already dead and has disappeared from this world.”
“But as a Supreme Demon, he won’t die.”
