Under One Person: Please Call Me Golden Flash

Chapter 190 The Second Inheritance

Zhao Zhen turned around, her dark eyes silently watching the disheveled Wugensheng, but she remained silent.

"Sometimes when we're face to face, I really don't know if you're looking at me now or me in the future."

Wugensheng slowly walked down the steps, a helpless smile appearing on his lips.

"Is there a difference?"

Zhao Zhen spoke in a calm tone.

"Without the present, there is no future."

"But right now, I can't see my future..."

As they were talking, Wugensheng walked up to Zhao Zhen and placed his hand on Zhao Zhen's shoulder.

"I remember when we first met, it was like this. You knew that my divine spirit could restrict your golden light, but you didn't choose to dodge immediately."

Because then you'd know I wouldn't kill you casually.

"I do not deny that."

"And now? Do you still think that way?"

"No, I'm not resisting now, simply because even without the Golden Escape Flowing Light, you can't kill me."

Wugensheng was slightly taken aback, then burst into laughter.

"Zhao Zhen, even I have to admit that you are indeed the person I've met most in recent years who suits my taste the best."

"Stop dawdling here. The Wugensheng I know isn't this kind of fussy, indecisive person."

Let me be frank, you called me here simply because you want me to help you make a decision, right?

"Ah."

Wugensheng nodded and did not continue to make things mysterious.

"Come with me."

Subsequently, under Wugensheng's guidance, Zhao Zhen also followed him back to that platform.

The platform was piled high with Wugensheng's personal belongings, and in the very center of these items was a Western painting depicting an innocent and carefree young girl.

You should know her, right?

Wugensheng spoke slowly.

“Feng Baobao, your daughter, Feng Yao.” Zhao Zhen nodded.

Upon hearing Zhao Zhen say those words, Wu Gensheng's face immediately showed a relieved smile.

"As expected..."

"Sure enough?"

"I didn't understand before why you, Zhao Zhen, always kept your distance from me. Was it just because I was the leader of Quanxing Sect?"

No, after all, in my impression, you, Zhao Zhenke, have never been someone who cares about the other person's status.

Then there's only one possibility: you knew all along that getting involved with me would bring you enormous trouble.

“Wugensheng, Mei Jinfeng is right, you have really changed a lot.”

"Has it changed... Heh, maybe. I told her before that the four types of people can switch between each other at any time when they fall into extreme situations."

Going further, whether to stagnate or succumb to depravity is a matter of a single thought.

"So you specifically asked me to come here just to find an excuse for your self-degradation?"

Wugensheng didn't speak, but simply looked at Feng Baobao in the oil painting.

“Baby’s mother died early, and I, as her father, am always out and about, hanging out with those bastards from Quanxing. I can’t come home more than a few times a year. So, from childhood to adulthood, Baby has hardly ever seen her parents.”

Zhao Zhen remained silent, simply listening to Wu Gensheng's heartfelt outpouring in front of her.

If this had happened to Wugensheng in the past, this situation would never have occurred to him.

As the leader of Quanxing, he could not allow his personal feelings to influence his judgment.

After all, back then, the incident at the Sanyi Sect was almost a disaster because Wugensheng admired Zuo Ruotong and, in a moment of weakness, chose to help him.

But now that he has become like this, it must be because, as he said, he has fallen into an extreme situation.

This extreme situation must certainly be related to Feng Baobao.

"To be honest, I'm the one who has wronged this child... Over the years, I have never truly fulfilled my responsibilities as a father."

The tree may wish to be still, but the wind will not cease; the child may wish to care for his parents, but they will no longer be there. Haha, but when it comes to me, it's the complete opposite.

Throughout my life, I've prided myself on helping many people succeed, but when I was most lost, who was there to lend me a helping hand?

"Your daughter, she..."

"I asked around and found many famous doctors in the field, but the conclusion was always the same: it was an incurable disease and I wouldn't live much longer."

"Is it……"

Zhao Zhen nodded calmly, but his heart was in turmoil.

In his memory, Feng Baobao not only did not die, but lived all the way into the 21st century!
In other words, Wugensheng somehow managed to turn a child suffering from an incurable disease into an immortal "immortal"?!
Although it was still uncertain, Zhao Zhen could vaguely sense that he was probably close to the truth of the Jia Shen Rebellion.

"You want to save her?"

"Hmm." Wugensheng nodded.

"Birth, aging, sickness and death are the natural course of life, and this is also the natural law of Heaven. You, Wugensheng, should not be unaware of this."

"I understand that in the path of humanity, no one can escape the laws of nature, so I can only set my sights on the legendary path of immortality."

"Immortal? Heh, what is an immortal?"

A cold smile crept across Zhao Zhen's lips.

"Even the Left Sect Master, who was known as the Great Ying Immortal, had his immortal dream exposed by you back then, didn't he?"

"That's because he went down the wrong path, Zhao Zhen. Back then, you received the inheritance from Zhang Boduan, the hermit of Ziyang Mountain, in this Heweiren Mountain Cave, and you have been cultivating for more than ten years now."

"Let me ask you, in your opinion, is this Hermit of Ziyang Mountain an immortal?"

Upon hearing this, Zhao Zhen immediately fell silent.

The more he practiced the alchemy, the more amazed he became by its profound mystery.

This is not only a top-notch method for cultivating both body and mind; the deeper one goes into cultivation, the more one discovers its all-encompassing nature.

Just like Zhao Zhen is now over thirty years old, but his appearance seems to have never changed since the moment he started practicing alchemy.

Anyone who looks at him at first glance would think that Zhao Zhen is a young man who is no more than twenty years old!

A technique that can achieve this level of skill is probably not surprising to be called a "celestial technique".
“If you don’t say it, I’ll take it as a yes. In my opinion, even if this Ziyang Mountain Man isn’t a true immortal, he’s probably not far from being one.”

"Hehe, when you first came here with me, you completely rejected this Ziyang Mountain Man. How come you're praising him so highly now?"

Despite Zhao Zhen's sarcastic remarks, Wugensheng remained unperturbed and continued speaking:

"Because over the years I have continued to explore this place, I have discovered that the secrets within this 'What is Human?' cave are actually more than just one lineage of immortal techniques..."

　Regarding the plot of the Jia Shen Rebellion, since Mi Er hasn't revealed it yet, we can only speculate. However, it's a crucial part of the story and can't be skipped, so I'll just lay out a rough outline here:
　　All subsequent content regarding the Jia Shen Rebellion is based on my subjective conjecture and speculation. Any resemblance to actual events is purely coincidental and is purely coincidental.

　　Of course, if there's anything that seems unreasonable, it's just me making things up, so just take it as entertainment~
