You are already cultivating immortality, who would fight with you alone?

"Think twice?" Elder Sun floated behind Liu Yuntian. After a moment of silence, he suddenly smiled and said, "I always thought that thinking twice meant to think about it again and again."

When Liu Yuntian heard this, a faint smile appeared on his face, and he explained softly: "Be prepared for danger, and always predict the dangers you may encounter;

“Think about retreating, and leave yourself a way out in advance, retreat to a place where others can’t find you, see you, or notice you;”

"Think about change. After retiring, think about ways to solve the problem flexibly."

After saying that, he turned his head and looked at Elder Sun, and sighed: "How can you peerless masters be obsessed with these crooked ways? When you encounter injustice, just kill it with a sword."

"Only weak people like us would think about these ways to save our lives."

Elder Sun shook his head and said firmly, "No, this is amazing. When I was in the Foundation Establishment Stage, I would run away and keep running away when I encountered any trouble. It was the same in the Golden Core Stage. At that time, I always believed that my fate was in my own hands. As long as I practice hard, I will trample everyone under my feet one day. I will never admit defeat!"

There was determination and indomitable spirit in his eyes, as if he had returned to the difficult times in the past.

"But after I reached the Mahayana stage... I gave in, because even at the Mahayana stage, I was still on the run... I've been running away all my life." He was silent, with a hint of self-mockery and helplessness on his face: "I used to think that as long as I practiced hard and constantly improved my strength, I could change everything. But now, I find that I was wrong. No matter how hard I try, I can't escape the tricks of fate."

He sighed deeply, his eyes dimmed: "Perhaps, this is my fate."

“But you are different. You cannot build a foundation. The peak of the Qi Refining Stage is your limit, and it is also the limit of mortals. But you have done much better than me. You have never really escaped. Instead, you have played around with people who are a hundred times stronger than you…” He said slowly, his eyes flashing with admiration and awe.

Before he finished speaking, Liu Yuntian made a fist and the shadow of Old Sun disappeared instantly. Then he picked his ears and said, "Are you flattering me to death? I've heard enough of this kind of boring flattery." Then he walked into the city gate.

At the city gate, there were two men wearing armor from an unknown country. Just by looking at the armor coverage of the soldiers guarding the city, one could tell that this country was not wealthy. Only the chest part was armored, and the rest of the lower body and limbs were all exposed.

"Stop! Take off your mask and let us see your face clearly before entering!" a soldier guarding the city shouted.

Liu Yuntian stopped where he was, turned his head slightly to look at the soldier who blocked his way, and said indifferently: "I just want to stay for one night. I will leave early tomorrow morning. I hope you will be flexible for the sake of my two elder brothers."

The soldier looked Liu Yuntian up and down arrogantly, with a scornful smile on his face, "Who do you think your elder brother is? I fucking......"

Just as he was about to say a few sweet words, he saw Liu Yuntian quickly took out two glittering spirit stones from his arms and stuffed them into his hands.

The soldier's expression froze for a moment, then turned into flattery. He nodded and bowed hurriedly, saying, "So it's these two big brothers! You look kind, sir. You must be the reincarnation of a good man for ten generations. You must have nothing to do with those bandits. You don't need to take off this mask. Please enter the city!"

As he spoke, he personally opened the city gate for Liu Yuntian and bowed in greeting.

Liu Yuntian was escorted by soldiers and swaggered into the city. The next moment, he heard the hawkers' cries.

However, when he saw the streets full of animal feces and withered and rotten vegetable leaves, he couldn't help but frown, and a strong feeling of discomfort surged in his heart.

The air was filled with an unpleasant smell that Liu Yuntian could hardly bear.

With a frown on his face and trying to hold his breath, he tried to find an inn that was a little cleaner.

Finally, he found an inn that looked relatively good and prepared to go in and rest.

At this moment, Liu Yuntian noticed that two tall and mighty men with burly backs, scars all over their heads and scratching their feet suddenly appeared on both sides. They were like two iron towers, approaching him aggressively.

Liu Yuntian held the hilt of the knife behind his waist with his left hand, took a step back, glanced at the two men, and asked calmly, "What advice do you two brothers have?"

After the two looked at each other, they said in unison, "Our boss wants to see you!" Their voices were cold, low and unquestionable.

After being reminded by Old Sun and knowing that these two people were only in the Qi Refining Stage, he felt relieved. In order to avoid trouble, he decided to follow them and see what the situation was. If he encountered any danger, he would just leave.

Not long after, Liu Yuntian followed the two big men to the gate of a relatively spacious house. The two men made way and signaled Liu Yuntian to go first.

There was no hesitation. If it was a blessing, it would not be a disaster. If it was a disaster, it could not be avoided. So he just strode in.

As soon as I entered the yard, the whole courtyard looked dilapidated and overgrown with weeds, as if no one had taken care of it for a long time.

There was a big pot in the middle of the courtyard, with some bones of unknown animals floating in the pot, emitting a unpleasant smell.

Behind the pot was a chair that looked very worn out, probably because it had not been maintained or repaired for a long time. When someone sat on it, the chair would creak, as if it would fall apart at any time.

However, the most eye-catching person is the person sitting on the armchair.

She was dressed in men's tights and had a men's headband on her head, but a closer look revealed that she was actually a woman with a pretty face and a hint of coldness between her eyebrows.

"While the rich wine and meat smell, the road with frozen bone."

"Prosperity and decline are so different, and the melancholy is hard to describe."

Just as Liu Yuntian was looking at the woman, she suddenly shook her head and recited a poem.

After the woman finished reciting, she looked at Liu Yuntian triumphantly and asked, "Do you know what it means?"

Liu Yuntian was stunned at first, then nodded slowly, indicating that he understood the meaning of the poem: "It satirizes the poor people and the high-ranking officials who live in the same place, but seem to live in two different worlds."

Hearing Liu Yuntian's answer, the woman showed a slightly surprised look and said, "Hmm? You are quite knowledgeable!" Then she nodded with satisfaction and continued to ask, "Then do you know who wrote this poem?"

"The great poet Du Fu." Liu Yuntian answered seriously.

The woman's face changed drastically when she heard that. Her eyebrows stood up. She drew out her sword with a "swoosh" sound, pointed it at Liu Yuntian, and said angrily, "Bullshit! It's obviously Liu Yuntian, the commander of the Jinyiwei of Daliang in the Northern Frontier. Who doesn't know the book written by the talented Liu in the mortal dynasty of the entire Qiyang Continent?"

"Who on earth is spreading rumors that this poem was written by that guy named Du? I will make him feel the power of the sword!"
