240: A good guy? Just a hypocrite!

"Celestial Aberration?"

Chen De savored the memories he had extracted from Old Madman and the others' minds.

Gradually, Chen De's eyes turned cold.

Somehow, according to the memories, this Celestial Aberration seemed to bear some resemblance to Chen De.

Especially some characteristics, they almost perfectly matched.

The main point was that his great kindness appeared as evil; Chen De's kindness was so extreme that it was normal for it to resemble evil.

Could it be that because of this, he was misunderstood?

Also, that Eight Ancestors Heaven-Shaking Devil Art was specifically designed to combat the Celestial Aberration.

What more could Chen De say? It was called a Devil Art.

A Devil Art, a Devil Art, it was indeed specifically used to deal with good people like him.

Chen De trembled with indignation. Why should a good person like him be targeted?

Being bullied by people was bad enough, but now even cultivation techniques were bullying people.

Indeed, good people are bullied, and good horses are ridden!

It seemed Chen De also needed to employ some compassionate, iron-fisted methods.

In this world, there are always people who can't distinguish between good and bad people.

No worries, Chen De will help them distinguish.

And those Eight Clans, the clans of the Eight Ancestors, probably aren't good things either.

Chen De looked up at the sky with a melancholic and sorrowful expression.

When will all these bad people finally die?

When will good people like them finally rise up?

As long as my heart desires goodness, I shall not regret it, even if I die nine times!

Chen De had done so many good deeds, perhaps in others' eyes, Chen De seemed very foolish.

But Chen De knew he would not regret it!

From now on, Chen De would purge all evil under heaven, slaying gods who block his way and Buddhas who block his way!

Originally, Chen De had planned to make a high-profile appearance, but the Black-Robed Figure immediately delivered a blow.

It promptly brought Chen De's slightly inflated kindness back to its original state.

This world is still not simple!

That Black-Robed Figure, just a few days ago, was being hung up and beaten by Chen De.

As a result, Chen De spent several nights, without stopping, upgrading.

And guess what? They were evenly matched.

The waters are too deep; Chen De is still a bit hesitant to wade in.

So, he can only adopt a more cautious approach and observe the situation further.

Chen De remembered that on the Sky Dome Continent, the most powerful forces were none other than the Eight Clans.

These were the clans of the Eight Ancestors, and on the Sky Dome Continent, both their strength and status were extraordinary.

So Chen De's goal, naturally, was to infiltrate one of these Eight Clans.

Thus, Chen De had to carefully consider which one to choose.

The Eight Clans were divided into eight groups: Nu, Ming, Jiu, Xiao, Jing, Ling, Shi, and Xuan.

For Chen De's actions to be most effective, he naturally had to choose the most powerful among them.

According to the information Chen De had gathered, the strongest of the Eight Clans was currently the Xiao Clan.

And Chen De was currently within the Xiao Clan's sphere of influence.

This was mainly due to Zhou Chi.

He had calculated that the Celestial Aberration did not want to be too conspicuous, fearing it would delay important matters, so he sent Lin Zhao to Central State.

And it was within the sphere of influence of the strongest of the Eight Clans in Central State, the Xiao Clan.

What more could Chen De say about this?

This was too much of a coincidence, wasn't it?

Chen De just captured someone and directly arrived within the target's sphere of influence.

Since that was the case, Chen De had to act properly.

At this moment, Chen De saw that the area around the city gate seemed very lively.

Most of the passersby were also heading in that direction.

So Chen De saw an old man, walked up to him kindly, and asked warmly, "Old man, what's happening over there that's so lively?"

After hearing this, the old man chuckled and explained to Chen De, "Oh, that? You must be new here, young man, so let me tell you..."

Unexpectedly, Chen De sighed, a little annoyed, "No need, old man."

Then he grabbed the old man's head with one hand and immediately began soul-searching.

There were so many people coming and going on the street, and the old man's screams.

Chen De and the old man stood in the middle of the crowd, but just like Lin Zhao earlier.

Despite such a commotion, not a single person noticed.

The old man's cultivation was not high, merely at the Divine Infant Realm.

In the Qian Guang Empire, he would indeed be a formidable figure, but here, he was just a roadside nobody.

From what Chen De had seen on the street, there was more than one Heaven Profound Realm cultivator.

After finishing the soul-search, Chen De knew what he wanted and casually vibrated the old man into ashes, making him vanish into thin air.

A good person?

Chen De muttered to himself.

According to what the old man said, Xiao Miao, who had gone out for training, had returned to the East City Gate.

It was said that this Xiao Miao was a rare good person, warm-hearted.

If anyone was in trouble, he would surely go to help upon hearing about it.

Especially when encountering injustice or bullying, he would definitely take action.

Within the Xiao Clan's sphere of influence, there were not only people from their Xiao Clan.

There were also various other large and small forces, and people of other surnames living there.

Logically speaking, on the Xiao Clan's territory, their Xiao Clan members could naturally be as arrogant as they wished.

However, under Xiao Miao's restraint, not a single Xiao Clan junior dared to be arrogant and domineering here.

It could be said that most of the people within the Xiao Clan's sphere of influence had received his favor.

Therefore, here, Xiao Miao was deeply loved by everyone.

In the eyes of some people, his status even surpassed that of the Xiao Clan's patriarch.

He was also the patriarch's son, and it was said that he had now broken through to the Heaven Profound Realm.

However, these experiences, in Chen De's eyes, amounted to nothing.

Only the three words "great good person" deeply embedded themselves in Chen De's heart.

At this moment, an unparalleled sense of kindness burst forth in Chen De's heart.

Perhaps, this was the resonance between good people, the mutual appreciation between good people.

However, Chen De still had to test him thoroughly.

To see if he was truly a good person.

...

East City Gate, Chen De arrived here in an instant.

He saw that gentle and elegant young man, with a soft demeanor and appearance, walking slowly into the city with a faint smile.

In the city, there was a no-fly order issued by the Xiao Clan, prohibiting anyone from flying within the city.

As a representative of the Xiao Clan, Xiao Miao naturally had to set a good example.

Presumably, this was that Xiao Miao, right?

Chen De didn't know why all these large cities had no-fly orders.

However, these had nothing to do with the upcoming test.

Chen De looked around and finally, through his divine sense, discovered a newly hatched, ultra-small, translucent ant.

So, Chen De used the black liquid to control it, and just as Xiao Miao was raising his foot to step down, less than half a millimeter away.

With lightning speed, he quickly moved and attached the ant to a mark-free spot under Xiao Miao's shoe.

Next, it was the crucial moment of the test.

But the next moment, something that sent chills down Chen De's spine happened.

Xiao Miao simply kept his head up, completely oblivious, and with that same gentle smile on his face, he stepped down.

At this moment, Chen De's heart shattered.

Chen De dared not look further, fearing to see that cruel scene.

A life, just like that, vanished before Chen De's eyes. Chen De couldn't describe how sad he was.

But this Xiao Miao still maintained a calm demeanor, smiling and greeting everyone.

He personally tortured and killed a life, leaving it bloody and mangled, not even a complete corpse remained.

He actually, actually could still smile.
