High Martial World: I Gain Passive Skills Daily Chapter 66 - 65: I’ll Always Be With You

Chen Kuang personally demonstrated through experience.

This kind of thing like the Law of Cause and Effect, really can’t be ssed with!

Because no one can predict what thod the Celestial Dao will use to compensate for that which has been lost.

Chen Kuang’s idea of compensation:

Exactly when Di Wu’s enemy passed by, saw this situation, got angry, and righteously intervened to rescue Zhou Yanwei.

But this enemy’s strength was probably not too strong, just barely sufficient to save Zhou Yanwei, similar to the effect of Zhou Yanwei proving himself by pulling out the Token, maintaining the balance of cause and effect.

This developnt seed reasonable and not abrupt.

The actual compensation:

A divine intervention from the Imperial City thousands of miles away, directly bringing a Heaven-Shocking Sword, cutting down everyone!

What’s even scarier is that the owner of that sword, unfortunately, is Shen Xingzhu!

He thought everything through for the Celestial Dao, and then the Celestial Dao just overturned his table...

Chen Kuang now has a phrase in his heart he doesn’t know whether to say or not.

Amidst the sword cry echoing thousands of miles, the sky and earth were split into two by the sword light.

This sword ca from the west, truly like a celestial being flying from the heavens.

Previously, the Saint’s battle was too far, his own cultivation too weak, what it ans to be a true Grandmaster, Chen Kuang only realized today.

In just a mont, the Sword Qi fell, right on the half-wrecked Tower Ship.

Everywhere the sword passed was like cutting grass.

In an instant, the whole Tower Ship capsized in the lake.

It wasn’t just Chen Kuang who was shocked.

Or rather, aside from him and Shen inan, the others didn’t even know what happened, becoming confused ghosts.

The most aggrieved was probably Di Wu.

As he sensed the sword coming from the west, his pupils contracted, and he imdiately shouted loudly:

"I am Di Wu from the Wind and Rain Pavilion under the seat of Martial Saint, may I ask which senior it is..."

Di Wu didn’t finish his question before his head disappeared into the sword light.

Only his body remained, standing there dumbly.

After a while, it fell straight down.

Along with the shattered Tower Ship, it sank into the lake with a gurgling sound.

Countless severed limbs floated up from the water, spreading a bloody mist...all from the cultivators of the Wind and Rain Pavilion.

The once bustling battlefield fell silent instantly.

Today, Di Wu ca to greet the Great Zhou Civilization Official, and to show respect, he brought almost all the main force of the Wind and Rain Pavilion.

—Even though the Wind and Rain Pavilion’s main fighting force was actually only Di Wu, it doesn’t an the other mbers didn’t exist.

And now, they were all buried on the Tower Ship.

In other words, with one sword, Shen Xingzhu erased an entire sowhat renowned county-level force.

Standing by the shore, Lin Er You was in a daze. Even with lake water splashed on his face, he seed unaware, turning directly into a soaked chicken.

Although he had sensed that Chen Kuang was not the kind to be underestimated, he hadn’t expected him to cause such a commotion.

The Wind and Rain Pavilion, today, directly removed from Jishao County!

A truly ruthless person!

If you dare to offend , I will annihilate your clan!

Just where did Chen Kuang find a Grandmaster to back him up?

This man, clearly of mortal origin, why does he feel like the sole heir to so hidden sect, able to summon an ancient monster to assist whenever and wherever...

Moreover, why does this Sword Will feel sowhat familiar?

Lin Er You took a deep breath, wiped the water from his face, his expression suddenly changed, swiftly walked to the shore, and called out:

"Fellow Daoist Ruogu! Fellow Daoist Shen! Fellow Daoist Zhou!"

The Tower Ship had completely disintegrated, Chen Kuang and Shen inan were caught off guard, naturally falling into the lake, out of sight.

"Splash!"

After a short while, two figures suddenly erged from the water.

Lin Er You focused his gaze and imdiately grinned with joy: "Fellow Daoist Zhou, you are still alive!"

These two figures, naturally, were Zhou Yanwei and his loyal old servant.

The old servant was nearing exhaustion, Zhou Yanwei disregarded his struggles, fed him a Life-Saving Elixir, allowing him to lean halfway on himself, and swiftly landed ashore.

Once ashore, he imdiately glared coldly at Lin Er You, drawing his long sword:

"Lin Er You, you are unworthy of being a student of Freedom Mountain! Deceitful and treacherous, you are not fit to be a human!"

He spoke through gritted teeth, seething with anger, about to use a Secret Technique against him.

The old servant suddenly reached out to stop Zhou Yanwei.

Zhou Yanwei was stunned: "Old Ma, what do you an by this?"

The old servant coughed twice, looked at Lin Er You, whose face was full of smiles, and surprisingly gave him a bow.

"I have heard that the gentleman of Freedom Mountain has the intention to abandon the Peach Grove and enter the mundane world. Now it seems that this rumor should be true."

Abandon the Peach Grove, enter the mundane world?

Zhou Yanwei’s pupils contracted tightly. The Peach Grove naturally refers to the peach blossom grove composed of students’ gifts on Freedom Mountain.

The gentleman once said, when there is Dao under heaven, sacrifice oneself for Dao; when there is no Dao under heaven, sacrifice for Dao.

Therefore, when he saw there was a path in the world, he withdrew from the earthly realm, seeking freedom, gathering students to fulfill himself with the ways of the world.

And now, is the Master going to abandon the students, abandon Freedom Mountain?!

Doesn’t that an...

Having seen the world without a path, he intends to personally intervene in worldly conflicts?

Lin Er You tidied up his clothes and saluted Old Ma: "Senior, your insight is as sharp as a torch, your mind as ticulous as dust. My previous offense was out of necessity, and I hope for your forgiveness."

His words were indeed grand and dignified, but Zhou Yanwei didn’t mock him further.

The Second Prince stared at Lin Er You: "Is the Master really going to co out of seclusion?"

Lin Er You smiled and said, "Soon."

With these words, Zhou Yanwei was left with nothing to say, instead becoming sowhat hesitant and nervous: "So... are you selecting people for the Master?"

Lin Er You nodded and said frankly, "Exactly, the past month was for observation, and the recent trial was a test."

"In tis of crisis, having a heart of innocence."

He smiled and bowed deeply: "Congratulations, Your Highness, you have beco my recomnded candidate."

Zhou Yanwei opened his mouth.

Lin Er You muttered again, "Speaking of which, I really have to thank that Chen Ruogu. If it weren’t for his sudden appearance, I wouldn’t have thought of how to test it."

Zhou Yanwei was taken aback, thinking that the sword qi just now was probably related to Chen Kuang, but looking around, he didn’t see the latter:

"Where are this Chen... Brother Ruogu, and that Fellow Daoist Shen?"

Lin Er You slapped his forehead, realizing.

That guy has already taken people and run!

Lin Er You said curiously: "All the people from the Wind and Rain Pavilion are dead, so why is he running?"

Zhou Yanwei was at a loss whether to cry or laugh: "Could it be... he’s afraid I’ll seek revenge?"

...

Chen Kuang wasn’t afraid of Zhou Yanwei rembering that tiny grudge against him, he was hiding from sothing far scarier than this.

"Splash!"

"Ptooey, ptooey, ptooey!"

Shen inan, with a bitter face, spat out the water in her mouth, then curiously patted the oversized turtle slowly moving its limbs beneath her.

"How do you make it obey you? Could it be that you can control beasts?"

The girl sat sideways on the turtle’s back, taking off her drenched shoes and socks, revealing snow-white slender feet, and wiggled her five glistening toes, splashing up water droplets.

Chen Kuang sat on the other side of the broad turtle shell, took off the blindfold, wrapped it around his wrist, and modestly said, "I know a little bit."

In fact, this was the passive effect of "like a fish in water."

Who would have thought? It’s quite handy.

Shen inan, hearing the splashing water, blushed for reasons unknown, then turned her head to sneak a look at Chen Kuang.

As a result, she saw Chen Kuang’s clear and handso profile, with eyes like cold stars.

"You’re not blind!"

The girl was astonished, recalling what had almost slipped her mind, puffed up, and said, "You’re not Ruogu, you’re actually that Chen Kuang!"

She raised two fingers: "You lied to , twice!"

"I didn’t lie to you."

Chen Kuang remained calm: "Surna Chen, given na Kuang, styled as Ruogu."

Shen inan’s little face turned serious, retracting one finger: "Alright, once!"

"Heh."

The silver lock on Shen inan tinkled softly, and a cold female voice suddenly sounded: "A musician sent into the palace from the people, where would you have a style na?"

Chen Kuang sighed:

"Fairy Shen really is lofty, far removed from the mundane, but why not allow common folk to learn to give themselves style nas?"

Now with an "Anti-Shen Alliance," Shen inan was even more justified, subconsciously sticking up for Chen Kuang: "Exactly, exactly, a self-given style na is still a na!"

Shen Xingzhu: "..."

She was silent for a while, then said to Chen Kuang: "Make sure you protect her."

Chen Kuang couldn’t help but say, "Has Fairy forgotten what kind of relationship we have? How are you so sure that I will protect her?"

Shen Xingzhu calmly said: "You will."

Chen Kuang raised an eyebrow, wondering why Shen Xingzhu’s intent didn’t seem as hostile as before...

Could it be she finally realized she couldn’t kill him and switched to a softer approach? Trying to make him recognize her path?

However, Shen Xingzhu’s attitude towards Shen inan was completely different from what he imagined.

Chen Kuang probed: "With my cultivation that hasn’t even reached Innate, how can I protect her?"

Shen Xingzhu calmly replied: "A wisp of my Primordial Spirit is on the Longevity Lock."

Chen Kuang fell silent for a mont: "Does Fairy an to say?"

Shen Xingzhu seed to smile faintly: "I will always be with you."
