The two looked at each other, their eyes facing each other.
An inexplicable pressure surged around the two of them.
Everyone in the inn felt an inexplicable pressure, and many people found it difficult to breathe.
The shopkeeper looked pale and squatted in the corner, too frightened to say a word.
The waiters have also disappeared long ago.
On the first floor of the inn, it seemed that there were only two people left in an instant.
The atmosphere is weird and tense!
You don't need to guess to know that sitting there is the strongest man in this pure land...O'Connell.
O'Connell stretched out his hand and said, "Sit down."
As soon as these words came out, the pressure in the inn disappeared instantly.
The shopkeeper in the corner was sweating profusely, as if he had just experienced a life-and-death crisis.
Zi Chen slowly walked downstairs, his expression seemed calm, but in fact his mood fluctuated greatly.
At that moment before, he felt threatened.
This is the first time someone has threatened him since arriving here.
Zi Chen sat across from O'Kang, picked up the wine bottle and poured himself a glass, then looked at O'Kang and waited patiently for the rest.
O'Connell said: "I heard that you have some good wine on you?"
Zi Chen drank the wine in the glass in one gulp, and with a flash of light in his hand, there was an extra bottle of wine.
After opening it, the aroma of wine overflows.
O'Connell smiled and said: "It is indeed a good wine!"
Looking at the intoxicated expression on the other person's face, it's like he's really here to beg for a drink.
Zi Chen took the initiative and said, "Sir, are you here for Cody's death?"
O'Connell put down his glass, "Yes and no."
Zi Chen looked at Aokang and waited quietly for the next sentence.
"Cody took the initiative to provoke you. If you kill him, he deserves it. I believe that no one else would let him go."
O'Connell said: "This kind of brainless idiot is not worthy of my special care. I am even very happy that such an idiot died early. If he exposes the sky because of his stupidity in the future, he will be killed."
He is no longer himself."
Zi Chen nodded and agreed with O'Connell's statement.
"The main reason why I came here is to meet you, or to meet the saint."
"saint?"
Zi Chen was stunned for a moment, as if he didn't quite understand the meaning of this sentence.
"We people here believe that if you don't serve yourself, you will be punished by heaven and earth."
O'Connell said: "This has been the case since we gained consciousness. As long as it is profitable, there is no need to consider other people. As for sacrificing oneself for others, we have only heard of it in legends. We call such people saints."
Zi Chen said: "I am not a saint."
"No, according to the information I heard, you are the legendary saint."
Aokang looked at Zi Chen, "Otherwise, why would you do that thankless thing?"
A wild girl can just fend for herself.
But Zi Chen didn't and took her to the pure land.
He was afraid that she would go astray, so he personally led her to perceive the dangers of the world.
Shulu Street develops in the original way. Everyone has the light of law to earn, and there is only a lot more.
But Zi Chen didn't, he chose another path.
Seeing O'Kang's serious expression, Zi Chen's expression also became serious, "Anyway, it's all about earning the light of the law. I just think that I can earn more this way. As for sacrificing myself for others, I have never thought about it."
"This is absolutely impossible."
O'Connell said: "When it comes to business, only the method we choose can maximize our profits."
Zi Chen smiled and said: "Take Xiaozhu for example, if I hadn't brought her here, she might have died long ago, and it would have no value. But after coming here, she became a spiritual magician, and there will be many in the future.
She has great potential, and the light of Dharma I invested in her is nothing compared to what she will gain in the future."
O'Connell naturally doesn't think so. There are too many uncertain factors in this.
He asked: "If you were the Lord of the Pure Land and faced a crisis, what would you do?"
Zi Chen didn't even think about it and said: "Of course we have to protect a pure land. If we encounter a crisis that cannot be resolved, we can only try to see if we can protect this pure land as much as possible."
"For example?" Aokang looked at Zi Chen.
Zi Chen said: "For example, if I leave, the Pure Land will stay and let everyone in it live!"
Zi Chen often does this kind of thing.
O'Connell said: "Why not destroy the Pure Land directly, rather than destroy it?"
Zi Chen smiled and said: "Since it is my pure land, it is naturally my home. The people I care about and the people who trust me live in it. It is great to be destroyed directly."
"Moreover, preserving the Pure Land also preserves the possibility of the future. One day, when you become stronger, you can regain the Pure Land!"
O'Connell said: "Is this what you really think?"
Zi Chen nodded.
Aokang stood up and said: "Seeing you, I seem to be full of confidence in the world again. Maybe I should also go out for a walk and see a broader world."
After saying that, O'Connell left without finishing the wine.
Zi Chen didn't know the purpose of the other party's visit, but one thing he understood was that after Aokang left, no one would dare to come to Shulu Street to cause trouble.
Cody was killed, and the Lord of the Pure Land went to find Zi Chen.
But Zi Chen is still intact, which is enough to reveal many problems.
So no matter how many people were thinking about Shulu Street before, they have to give up now.
With Cody's lesson learned, no one would dare to steal on Rat Road Street again.
Therefore, in a very short period of time, the reputation of Shulu Street spread back.
There are many poor people in the Pure Land, and they live in places like Shulu Street.
Different from the past, after having a few rays of light on my body, I lived a life of fear.
This time, with Zi Chen's promise, they stayed at the inn on Shulu Street generously. Once the light of law was lost, they would go find the innkeeper.
With word of mouth, there will naturally be business.
Every day that followed, the thirteen inns on Shulu Street were fully booked.
In addition to practicing, Xiaozhu also patrols this street.
Currently she is still at the first level of spiritual magic.
Outside the Pure Land, a group of five people came.
The leading man in black robe stared ahead, "Are you sure there is no problem here?"
"The latest news we heard is that O'Connell, the Lord of this Pure Land, was seriously injured during the last fight for the entrance."
A person from behind said: "Moreover, in this pure land, apart from O'Kang, there are only two eighth-level spiritual arts and two sixth-level spiritual arts."
When the man in black robe heard this, he said: "Then there is no problem."
He waved his hand and said, "Let's go."
A group of five people headed towards Aokang Pure Land.
When they reached the entrance of the Pure Land, the guards looked at the five people with unkind expressions and were too sensible to ask for the entry fee.
After the five people entered the Pure Land, they headed straight into the depths.
"boom!"
A terrifying aura erupted in the depths.
In this area, there is a special group of people who make a living by hunting the Lord of the Pure Land and plundering a Pure Land.
