My Cultivation Starting from Archery-Chapter 1462 - 539: Original Intent Remains (Part 2)

"I also want to save them."

Chen Sansi said with a deep voice, "But the problem is our strength is limited, and I'm afraid we can't handle the Town of Xiwang. Actually, we can be more rational, and find a way after we leave."

"I know."

Ah Ji furrowed his brows, looking at the patients in the medical hall, "But I just don't want to leave."

"Xiao Chen."

Old Man Xu came out from the medicine storeroom and asked suddenly, "Are you an Immortal Master?"

"Oh?"

Chen Sansi was a bit curious, "How did you figure that out?"

"Haha~ Though I'm just a common folk, in my younger days I traveled the world with my master, witnessing many strange people and events."

Old Man Xu said, "When Ah Ji brought you here, I could tell at a glance that you were no ordinary person, and precisely because of this, I hoped Ah Ji would discard you to avoid trouble.

"Now it seems you truly are an Immortal Master in distress.

"Immortal Master Chen, thank you for your care over the past half year, gathering herbs and formulating prescriptions, allowing me as an old man to learn quite a bit of medical skill.

"Now that our fate has come to an end, the Immortal Master surely has more important things to do, feel free to leave without too many concerns."

"..."

Chen Sansi still wanted to persuade.

But Old Man Xu insisted, "Immortal Master Chen, go quickly, don't worry about this old man. We mere mortals, death will come sooner or later in this chaotic world. But the Immortal Master has a long lifespan, a noble identity, staying because of a city full of irrelevant people, if something goes wrong, it truly wouldn't be worth it."

"What did you say?"

Chen Sansi could discern that the other party's tone didn't carry sarcasm, rather genuine belief.

He denied, "I'm just acting rationally based on the judgment of the situation."

"Therefore, you are an Immortal."

Old Man Xu said, "Only an Immortal Master who has severed all emotions and desires can maintain reason at all times."

They would never know.

The Immortal Master of great power standing in front of them, Ancestor of Martial Arts, was far from rational in the past, having done things that would seem reckless to any leader waging war.

He once...

In a time of defeated armies, led an entire city of people over mountains and across the water.

"Chen Jiaohua, what about you?"

Ah Ji asked, "I cultivate to save people, to save the world, what about you? Why do you cultivate?"

Hearing this question.

Chen Sansi couldn't help but be slightly stunned, unable to answer for a moment.

"Chen Jiaohua!"

Ah Ji knelt down with a "plop", "Thank you for your guidance and kindness!"

Originally.

He should have called the other party master.

But Chen Jiaohua repeatedly refused, claiming he was merely a passerby, unable to fulfill the responsibilities of a master from beginning to end.

"If..."

Ah Ji's gaze was fiery, "After this war, if I get the chance to cultivate, I will surely create a world of my own, and then I'll find you in the 'greater world'!"

With that said, he didn't say another word, turning to immerse himself in the medicine storeroom.

Chen Sansi looked at the patients in Huichun Hall, looked at Ah Ji busy among the patients, suddenly feeling a sense of familiarity, as if he had seen this somewhere before.

After a long time.

He suddenly spoke, "Ah Ji, even if I think of a way to heal the Gu plague in the city, ultimately it wouldn't change the outcome."

"..."

Ah Ji clenched his fist.

How could he not know?

Since this Gu plague was man-made, as long as the army outside the city doesn't retreat, it's impossible to truly resolve it.

Just as despair engulfed his heart.

He heard Chen Sansi's voice ring out again:

"So.

"The Gu plague must be treated, and the Town of Xiwang must die."

Kill the Town of Xiwang!

"Jiaohua, are you crazy?!"

Ah Ji's eyes widened, "You're currently at Mysterious Phenomenon, and that Town of Xiwang was a Martial Saint years ago, surely he still has at least one Martial Saint by his side and countless troops, how could we possibly kill him?!"

Waves of unparalleled Evil Qi and majesty honed from the Corpse Mountain blood sea emanated from Chen Sansi, though his face was expressionless, the words he spoke pierced like ice spurs into everyone's mind: "I want him dead, he won't live."

In the end.

It is a world poor in Spiritual Energy.

He estimated generously, the Town of Xiwang would be at most at Qi Refinement seven or eight layers.

This point, the Gu insects prove.

Such a low-grade Gu insect, regardless of its intended wicked refinement, can only serve Qi Refining cultivators at most.

He wouldn't take long to become a Martial Saint, if adding some extra means, he would quickly reach Qi Refinement three or four layers, killing a mere Late Stage of Qi Refining, though not easy, shouldn't be too much of an issue.

As for the cost...

It's merely some external things.

"Brother Chen!"

Ling Er quickly ran in from outside, "A group of soldiers is coming towards the medical hall."

"Seems like you won't have time to leave with me."

Chen Sansi needed time to cultivate, otherwise at his current realm, trapped within the city would be certain death, "Don't act rashly within the city, once I'm ready, I'll naturally come for you."

"Jiaohua!"

Ah Ji worriedly said, "Don't take risks!"

"What?"

Chen Sansi chuckled, "You are allowed to risk yourself staying here to treat the Gu plague, but forbid me from doing something? With such mercy, you won't accomplish great things.

"Rest assured, the Elixir Pills I've consumed are more than what that Town of Xiwang has ever seen in storybooks, he can do nothing against me.

"I have to go, take care."

He didn't linger, left Huichun Hall quietly, then disguised himself as a soldier of Chen Kingdom, escaped the siege outside the city, and returned to the deep mountains.

Why do I cultivate?
