Chu Ming's calm heart suddenly became turbulent. Seeing Chu Ming's face, Zhao Min further asked, "Is the young master planning to choose a good and auspicious day to bring us sisters together?"
This made Chu Ming choose to "escape" in the first place. He didn't want Zhao Min to see his embarrassing situation with nosebleeds.
Arriving at the edge of the grassland and sitting on a high slope, Chu Ming quietly looked at the elk that were leisurely foraging and fell into deep thought.
He was originally an ordinary person from Blue Star, but by chance he came to Shanhai Continent, and with the support of the system, he had the capital to dominate the world.
Almost all of this was given by the system, not because of how powerful his abilities were. Faced with the pursuit of Shen Luoyan, Zhao Min and others, he was not confident and even felt guilty.
He is not Liu Xiahui, who is still in love, but he is not a lustful devil who can easily open up a harem.
What Chu Ming pursues is naturalness, and he still hopes to have the beauty of love. This is also the normal thinking of a modern person.
"Xiaotie, do you think I'm great?"
"Master, you are the most powerful."
I didn't expect that the system's flattery skills were getting better and better.
"All my foundations come from you. It's not so much that I am strong, but that the system is strong."
"I only provide relevant assistance to the master. All development directions, strategies, and plans are formulated by the master, so the master is the most powerful."
Chu Ming never thought that Xiaotie would be such a good chat partner. For this reason, the system upgrade was still very meaningful.
"I'm not as good as you say."
"Master, have you underestimated or even ignored your own strength? Since your rebirth, it has taken you less than three years to completely unify the Northeast Region, and you have also successfully hidden most of your strength. This is not something ordinary people can do. Arrived.”
"It's just good luck."
When Chu Ming heard Xiao Tieshou praising him, he hurriedly expressed his humility, but he did not expect that the more serious Xiao Tieshou responded, "Luck itself is also a part of strength."
The system's seriousness made Chu Ming not know how to continue their chat for a moment.
"The memories of the past life owned by the master should be your help rather than a burden. The current master is the real master."
Chu Ming understood the meaning of Xiao Tie's rather convoluted words.
All his troubles come from the intertwining of memories from his past life and his current life, which always makes him feel unreal, and sometimes he even suspects that he is living in a dream.
When he woke up, he was still struggling in a busy city with bustling traffic and people coming and going.
"Master, if this is a dream, you can try to wake yourself up."
Hearing the system's meticulous reminder, Chu Ming couldn't help but smile bitterly. He had actually used this method, and more than once.
He also knows that the current world is real, but he occasionally "dances" and is never able to fully engage in it.
He seemed to understand Chu Ming's inner thoughts, "Master, as time goes by, and even when you have been in this world longer than Blue Star, you will feel that your previous life was just a dream."
Although Chu Ming felt awkward after hearing what the system said, he had to admit that what Xiaotie said made sense.
"Master, please allow Xiaotie to remind you that this is the real world. If you die, you have truly fallen, and the system will also be wiped out."
"Although system characters are created by the system, each of them is a living individual with an independent soul. They are now like all human beings. If they die, there will be no such person in the world."
"Master, this is not a game!"
Finally, Xiaotie solemnly reminded Chu Ming as never before that this was an attitude he had never had before.
"Xiao Tie, I didn't expect you to be so good at educating people."
"Xiao Tie specializes in assisting his master, so naturally he must do his best to serve him!"
In the end, it did not forget to give itself a wave of "advertising".
Chu Ming looked at the elk in the distance, and suddenly he waved his hand and flew out a flying knife, which first penetrated the throat of the leading elk. It immediately fell to the ground, and the gurgling blood quickly dyed the surrounding grass red.
Seeing the lifeless leader, the elk herd fled towards the Western Zhou Dynasty in panic.
Chu Ming smiled somewhat self-deprecatingly, stood up and left with the same relief.
Today's conversation with Xiaotie made him let go of the burden in his heart.
Although we don't know what happened in less than an hour when Chu Ming left, everyone can clearly feel the sense of relaxation on his body.
This is not the first time Chu Ming has "struggled", but as time goes by, the deeper his connection with the world becomes, the weaker and weaker his entanglement becomes. When he is fully integrated into the world, everything will be over. Disappeared.
"Sir, Xiaolan can't swallow the inner elixir of monsters lately?"
Zhong Ling cautiously approached Chu Ming, obviously encouraged by the Thunder Cloud Beast on his shoulder.
For this innocent "little girl", Chu Ming planned to help her.
"Is that what you mean, Xiao Lan!"
Chu Ming's voice was colder than ever before, and as he spoke, a domineering aura of a king automatically emerged from his body.
Even Xu Zhu and others standing next to him hurriedly stood up and looked here in surprise.
Thunder Cloud Beast also seemed to sense that something was wrong, but still argued arrogantly, "I went out to hunt by myself, so the inner elixir should be mine."
"What I'm talking about is an order, not a discussion with you. If you dare to disobey, I don't mind providing your inner elixir to the Chongming Bird to devour."
The Thunder Cloud Beast felt boundless murderous intent coming towards it, and the monster's keen perception made it understand that as long as it acted slightly carelessly, Chu Ming would really take its life.
Zhong Ling was so frightened that he knelt down on the ground, crying and begging for mercy for the Thunder Cloud Beast, "Sir, please calm down, Xiaolan is just being naughty and will never dare to challenge your authority."
Chu Ming ignored Zhong Ling's plea and stared at the Thunder Cloud Beast. "I haven't heard your answer yet."
"Little beast understands."
Although Thunder Cloud Beast said softly, he tilted his head and responded to Chu Ming with a look of disdain on his face.
"Ling'er terminates the spiritual beast contract with it."
Hearing Chu Ming's words, Zhong Ling was stunned to the spot. She hurriedly knelt at his feet and begged for mercy on behalf of the Thunder Cloud Beast, saying, "Sir, Xiaolan is just young and ignorant. Please forgive it this time. From now on, I will forgive you." I must discipline it well so that it won’t make the same mistake as today.”
"Zhong Ling terminates the spiritual beast contract with it!"
Chu Ming's voice had turned cold, and Zhong Ling collapsed to the ground, but he still followed the order and terminated the contract with the Thunder Cloud Beast.
At this time, the Thunder Cloud Beast also knew that something was wrong, and rushed away from the mouth of the valley.
Speed is the specialty of the Thunder Cloud Beast, and its figure cannot be seen at all. It is like lightning passing through the sky, but a sword light cuts it off.
Chu Ming also appeared in the sky at some unknown time, attacking the Thunder Cloud Beast with a sword as fast as a sword. The Thunder Cloud Beast naturally refused to show weakness, waiting for an opportunity to hit its vital points with its sharp front claws, and spitting out words from its mouth from time to time. Thunder sneak attack Chu Ming.
Suddenly, the sky in the Hidden Immortal Valley became thunderous and lightning, and one could only hear the sound of fighting, but could not see their figures clearly.
At this moment, Chu Ming's sword movements suddenly became slower. Not only could he clearly see his sword moves, but he even felt that his movements had become extremely clumsy.
But the Thunder Cloud Beast, which was at the center of the battle, had its hair standing up like needles in horror. It felt that its life was seriously threatened, and even its body began to expand, like a balloon.
Chu Ming's attack was more powerful than the other sword. The muffled sound of their fighting was heard in the air, and the westward air flow blew the trees on the ground into a mess.
Just when Chu Ming swung the fifth sword, the Thunder Cloud Beast's front paws obviously began to tremble. After many rounds of blows, it finally began to lose its support.
At this time, Chu Ming's sixth sword arrived. The Thunder Cloud Beast did not dare to use its front paws to block it, so it had no choice but to rely on its "inflated" body to resist the sword.
As a result, it fell to the ground like a cannonball, creating a deep pit first. Before anyone had time to react, Chu Ming had already fallen to the ground, raised his toes and stepped into the pit.
Countless foot shadows transformed from true energy fell on the Thunder Cloud Beast one after another, causing the already injured Thunder Cloud Beast to scream in agony.
In the smoke and dust that filled the sky, only the cry of "squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak, squeak" was heard.
This process lasted for a full cup of tea before Chu Ming gave up, and his realm successfully broke through to the early stage of Emperor Wu.
Zhong Ling looked at the dying Thunder Cloud Beast in the pit, and her heart ached, but when she saw the expressionless Chu Ming standing by the pit, she didn't have the courage to say a word of mercy.
Chu Ming pulled out the Tai'a sword, and it seemed that he really planned to kill the Thunder Cloud Beast and extract its inner elixir.
Although the Thunder Cloud Beast was too injured to get up, the hair on its body stood up again after being shocked by Chu Mingsen's cold killing intent.
Seeing this scene, Zhong Ling couldn't bear it anymore. He rushed to Chu Ming and knelt down.
"Sir, please spare Xiaolan's life. I will definitely discipline it well in the future and will not do anything that violates the rules again."
"Can I trust you?"
Chu Ming still looked at Zhong Ling without any emotion, as if he didn't trust her guarantee.
Zhong Ling was also stunned on the spot because of Chu Ming's doubts. Seeing her performance, Chu Ming shook his head, and then used his true energy to suck the Thunder Cloud Beast into his hand.
He was seen holding a sword in his right hand and holding the Thunder Cloud Beast's throat tightly with his left hand. At this moment, the Thunder Cloud Beast sent a message to beg for mercy.
"Master, spare your life. The little beast knows that he was wrong. He will never dare to challenge the master's authority again. Please give the little beast a chance."
Chu Ming was completely indifferent to the Thunder Cloud Beast's plea, and the sword in his right hand was slowly raised.
