Green Mountain World, Supreme Clarity Temple.
"Phew~"
Exhaling a long breath of Turbid Qi, Chen Changsheng slowly opened his eyes.
Looking around, Chen Changsheng was the only one in the empty secret chamber.
"System, are you still there?"
After several breaths of silence, Chen Changsheng subconsciously called out to the system.
"Replying to Host, I have always been here."
Listening to that familiar electronic voice, Chen Changsheng said lightly, "System, I suddenly feel so bored. How about you keep me company and chat with me?"
Faced with Chen Changsheng's request, the system replied calmly, "Replying to Host, you are not bored right now. You are lonely."
"Me, lonely?"
Chen Changsheng gave a disdainful laugh at that answer.
Yet the system remained calm. "There are indeed many people around Host, but very few who truly understand you remain."
"Or rather, no one in this world understands you anymore."
"In the words of living beings: gold is easy to obtain, but a confidant is hard to find."
"With no confidant left by Host's side, such feelings of loneliness naturally arise."
The system's words left Chen Changsheng silent, because it had struck right at his sore spot.
Once again faced with the same choice as the Epoch Massacre, Chen Changsheng of today no longer had the courage to make that decision.
What was even more laughable was that Chen Changsheng could not share this matter with anyone.
Because Chen Changsheng could even guess what they would say.
Bai Ze would advise him to leave. Qian Ya would worry about him, then throw her own life into the bargain.
But neither of those answers was what Chen Changsheng wanted.
Thinking of this, Chen Changsheng spoke again. "System, if Scholar and Fu Yao were still alive, what do you think they would say to me?"
