Chen Guan had been working on it for quite so ti, and he clearly understood one thing: in the Purple Sun Corps, he was the only bad guy.
"What's wrong with being a bad guy? Bad guys are like darkness; without darkness, how can there be light? Without
being the bad guy, how can other people's goodness be highlighted? I am bad for a rightful reason; I am bad in an open and aboveboard way..." Chen Guan consoled himself, but the more he thought about it, the less confident he beca.
"City Lord." Soone greeted Chen Guan as they walked towards him.
Not many people here addressed Chen Guan as the City Lord, and the only person who did so naturally was Mr. Xiao.
"Mr. Xiao, where are you headed?" Chen Guan asked.
Mr. Xiao smiled and said, "Commander Feng assigned
to be in charge of the new recruits' training camp. I just finished work and am heading ho."
After speaking, Mr. Xiao sized up Chen Guan and added, "City Lord, you seem troubled. Is there sothing bothering you, and is there anything I can do to alleviate your worries?"
"Mr. Xiao, how did you perceive the Sixth Sense and acquire the second Secret Collection?" Chen Guan thought for a mont and asked.
Mr. Xiao was surprised, "Has the City Lord not reached the Sixth Sense yet?"
For soone of Chen Guan's strength to not have reached the Sixth Sense yet was truly shocking to Mr. Xiao.
"Not yet," Chen Guan did not bother to conceal it, as Mr. Xiao was now one of the core mbers of his group.
Mr. Xiao not only possessed substantial cultivation but was also a great talent in internal affairs, assisting Fujimura Reiko excellently.
Mr. Xiao took a mont to digest this information before saying, "Everyone's understanding is different, so there is no standard answer. Rather than borrowing insights from others, ask your own heart instead."
"I just can't see my own heart clearly," Chen Guan sighed.
"I have one thod. The City Lord might as well try it; perhaps it will be useful," Mr. Xiao said with a smile.
"What thod?" Chen Guan asked.
"Actually, it's very simple. The City Lord just needs to consider two questions: why do you live, and why do you die?" Mr. Xiao replied.
"Are there answers to these two questions?" Chen Guan frowned.
"There are no answers, yet there are many answers. So people muddle through life without seriously considering this question. So think about it but fail to understand it. So understand it and know the answer, but everyone's answer is different."
Mr. Xiao said earnestly, "In fact, these two questions are ant to help you understand your relationship with the world. The answer is not important; the important thing is the process of thinking, recognizing yourself, and understanding how to relate to the world and what you want your life to be like."
Chen Guan nodded thoughtfully, feeling that Mr. Xiao's words indeed made sense.
This was the difference between a wild path and a path with inheritance; a wild path relies on self-exploration, while those with inheritance are not blind, as predecessors have already described the outline of the elephant to them.
Chen Guan thanked Mr. Xiao and returned to his courtyard to seriously contemplate how he should coexist with the world.
The two questions Mr. Xiao ntioned were rely supplentary; it wasn't necessary to think about those questions specifically.
As Mr. Xiao said, the key was how he wanted to live his life.
Chen Guan was not a person lost in confusion; he had a clear goal.
He wanted to be a person above others, to beco the strongest being in the world, or at least to make others incapable of questioning his background so that Chen Xinghe and Chen Yulian could live openly under the sun, no longer sneaking around in fear.
To achieve such a goal, he had to possess power or strength surpassing the Ten Great Families; he needed to be invincible in the world.
So all along, Chen Guan's goal was very clear.
He needed personal strength and power.
Whether joining the Celestial Court Army or establishing Purple Sun City here, it was all done in pursuit of this goal.
Chen Guan now cald down to carefully ponder if such hard work, such diligent pursuit, was truly the life he wanted. Does he want to live like this forever?
Yes, indeed, this is the life Chen Guan wanted; he intended to live like this indefinitely.
To others, and to those carefree people, such a life undoubtedly seed arduous, even with imnse psychological pressure.
Life is so short, so why be hard on oneself, why endure such hardship when, in the end, it all returns to dust? Why not live happily and freely?
Generally, people might think this way, but Chen Guan didn't find it arduous nor felt significant psychological pressure.
On the contrary, he found joy in it; every mont of growth, every gain in strength, every acquisition of more resources, and witnessing his power gradually expand brought him imnse joy.
He was never the kind of person who could lie flat, nor one who could be content with the status quo.
"I... want this world to be shaped according to my desires..." Chen Guan beca increasingly certain of his intentions.
He was neither a good person nor could he be said to be a bad person; he just wanted to conquer the world.
Bang!
Chen Guan felt the Secret Technique of One within him start to operate frantically, with spiritual power surging turbulently, rushing to gather at one point.
Due to the incredible speed, the spiritual power collided and caused damage, yet it continuously rged as well.
Among the heavens and earth, an indescribable force seed to flow into his body, participating in the fusion of spiritual power.
In the night sky, stars shone brightly like blades.
"Strange, why do the stars seem particularly bright tonight?"
"Not just particularly bright, it's like there are many stars I've never seen before."
"This sky... truly looks like a starry river..."
Many who had not fallen asleep or were walking at night looked up to the starry sky, finding the stars exceptionally bright and resplendent tonight, as if the entire sky was filled with brilliant stars.
This phenonon gradually faded away as the sun rose.
Chen Guan stretched, getting up from bed, feeling very energetic, and his body was lighter than ever.
He had finally completed the Sixth Sense, awakened the second Secret Collection and reached Level 51. Now, he only needed to acquire resources to elevate to Level 60, enabling the Seventh Sense to enter the Great Cave Heaven.
That place held his ultimate dream; only by going there could he achieve his goal of being invincible in the world.
"Soon, I will soon be able to venture to the Great Cave Heaven." Chen Guan felt great, reflecting on his second Secret Collection.
Second Secret Collection—Creation World: Creation begins with destruction; to create a world, one must first destroy the world.
Chen Guan gazed at his second Secret Collection 'Creation World,' showing a smile of ambiguous aning at the corners of his mouth.
