Zhai Zhu

My grandfather is very eccentric, performing daily rituals of offering incense to himself, standing in front of his own spirit tablet and eating candles.
Villagers are fearful of my grandfather.
I am fearful of him too.
Later, I discovered that what they were afraid of was not my grandfather, but me.
Even grandfather is afraid of me.
...
My name is Chen Shi.
The Chen of honesty, the Shi of sincerity.

Above the Great Dao

Cold Mountain Wanderer had been watching Chen Shi's every move intently, and when he saw Chen Shi kick down the sect's gate, he couldn't help but draw a sharp breath. 


"This little fellow strikes so ruthlessly and viciously, even surpassing the Five Lakes Wanderer of old! He wipes out entire sects with a single move, even demolishing the mountain gates and shattering the Mountain Guardian Beast!"


In breaking the Divine Beast Stone Statue, he aimed to sever the continuity of the sect.


Even Chen Yindu rarely resorted to such extreme measures. 


"He strikes too ruthlessly," remarked the Wandering Guest upon seeing the scene.


The Taiping Sect had eighty-two members, plus two Divine Beast statues—all of whom were annihilated by Chen Shi. Could such deeds be accomplished by a mere teenager? 


"Given the actions of the Taiping Sect, they indeed deserve death."
