“Maybe I'm thinking about Feifei. Or maybe just what she said. You see, the last few days I've been thinking about my life and it turns out that I really am a coward.!”
Feng took a sip from the bottle and took several long sips. Lin Yi suddenly noticed that the bottle was not the first.
“Even in my youth, the elders saw my talent for wielding a sword, so they ordered me to train. I was the eldest, so I was told not only to train myself, but also to become an example for others. Well, that is, I myself wanted to be seen as an example. So I trained hard every day. When they were training, I was training. While they were having breakfast, I was training. When they played, I trained. Even when they were sleeping, I was still training. All my childhood I studied swordsmanship.”
“Having entered Huashan, I was already on the verge of perfection, so they added loads and immediately gave me the sutra of internal strength. In just a few months I was able to open my inner strength, and in a few years I was able to open all twelve primary meridians. I became the Huashan Heavenly Talent.”
“But instead of pride, I felt only disappointment. I have to serve as an example to the younger ones, so I can’t rest for a minute, every day I need to train, train, and train. They all think I love swinging a sword, but there's nothing in this world I hate more than fucking swords! I'm so tired!”
“I was raised with the knowledge that righteous and wicked people cannot live in peace, that they are all cunning and crazy demons, so I found my purpose in killing demons. And then I met Duan Feifei. And I learned that she was the holy virgin of the cult. I still don't understand how this can be. And why have I never thought before that there can also be good people in vicious cults?.”
“No, Duan Feifei has a terrible character, she is an arrogant and arrogant girl. But she has a good heart. She is kinder than many righteous people I have known! And yet we cannot be together, because she is a “vicious demon”, and I am a “righteous disciple”. So where is the truth?! Where is vice and where is righteousness??!”
“Also the place of the main student. I don't want to become one. But how can I fail the elders and my comrades? They say no one is better suited for this position than me. That's what they all say! All! But I told them that I didn’t want to, that I didn’t believe in it. And yet... it's like sword training as a child. I don't want to disappoint them...”
“I really don't want to. But after staying in Hangzhou for half a month, I began to think that they were mistaken. I'm not fit to be the head student. You're coming, Junior Brother Lin. You. The Hangzhou court is thriving and I was more amazed than anyone, I swear. Defeat forty-nine experts at the top of the second rank in a row! Then capture Eagle Mountain and even kill a first-class expert.”
“But what amazes me most is how you dealt with the city of Hangzhou. So many takeovers by force, so many conquests, and then suddenly you made three big clans allies of Huashan! Joint management with those who know the area, it’s impossible to think of anything better! Even if people from Shaolin come, they will not be able to do anything. I think this is the ideal solution. Therefore, Junior Brother Lin, you are clearly more suited to the role of head disciple than I am..”Linghu Feng spoke a lot, in fact he recounted his entire life. In the end he gave everything that was in his heart.
Lin Yi sat nearby and finished the bottle, silently listening to him. After making sure Brother Linghu had finished, he said:
“Senior Brother, after listening to you, I think I can also express my thoughts. In my opinion, good and evil are too fragile concepts. Only strength can be measured, and therefore only it is worthy of respect. For example, if you were the supreme expert, would you allow Duan Feifei to be driven away? You could do whatever you want, and then not only me, but everyone in Huashan would pretend not to notice anything. Yes, in the entire fist world there would not be a person who would dare to spread bad rumors about you.”
“That's how important power is in this world. There is nothing more important than her! The supreme experts only do what they think is necessary, and neither the elders nor the comrades would dare to push you around. Now they are afraid for their future and therefore want you to become the main disciple and protect them. If you don't, then they'll have to fend for themselves, and that's not what they want..”
“In general, no matter what you think, the word “strength” cannot be avoided. With power comes more choice and freedom..”
“As for you calling yourself a coward... Well, it's true. You cannot refuse yours, you cannot follow the path that you would choose for yourself. You lack determination, but isn't that cowardice? Learn to stand your ground. Whatever you think is necessary, go for it. Don't give your destiny to others.”
Lin Yi patted him on the shoulder, turned away, and jumped off the roof. He returned to the room and went to bed.
He had nothing more to listen to or say. He told the truth, and he was very tired from the road, so now he wanted to rest.
Whether his words were useful to Linghu Feng or not did not matter much. However, a confident warrior will be more useful than a disappointed and defeated one..
Following Lin Yi with his gaze, Linghu Feng quietly repeated: “Strength. Path».
Gradually his empty eyes found a long-lost light.
.˙.
The next morning, Lin Yi did not ask Linghu Feng if he had come to any conclusions. Feng himself also decided to remain silent, as if they had both forgotten last night like a bad dream..
There wasn't much time left to ride. They galloped to Huashan by nightfall..
Looking up at the top of Hua Mountain again, Lin Yi clenched his fists tightly, full of anticipation and joyful emotions..
He is about to fulfill his first main goal after being transferred to this world!
“Elder Brother Linghu, Elder Brother Lin?!”
The Huashan disciples stared at them in amazement - no one expected that the two heroes of Mount Hua would return together.
The Hangzhou court now ruled the entire area and even occupied a position almost comparable to Mount Hua. No one expected such crazy results, so in the eyes of everyone, Lin Yi reached the importance of Linghu Feng.
Now it could be said that even the Huashan Peak supported the two of them in half. But Linghu Feng spent ten years on his prestige, despite his deep roots in the sect, while Lin Yi achieved the same in less than a year.
It was a real miracle.
Almost everyone thought that they would compete like fire and water, but instead the heroes returned to Huashan together, as if they had excellent relations.
However, something remained unclear. The Hangzhou Court was on the other side of Mount Hua from the Hengshan Court—one stood in the south and the other in the north, thousands of kilometers apart. So how did they get back together??
In the eyes of the sentries at the gate it was an unsolvable mystery..
Linghu Feng did not explain anything. He didn’t say a word at all that day - he didn’t even say hello in the morning.
Lin Yi shook his head. Perhaps he had heavy thoughts on his mind. You shouldn’t be offended by one missed “good morning”».
Jumping off his horse and handing the reins to the servant, Lin Yi slowly walked to the top of Huashan, clasping his hands behind his back..
In both the lower and upper courtyards, thousands of people came out just to look at him. Some asked for advice, Lin Yi chose a few random students and helped them.
Having reached the top, he returned to his palace and before he could breathe a sigh of relief, Yu Zecheng’s voice was heard:
“Junior Brother Lin, are you home??”
“Big Brother Yu, is that you?” Lin Yi frowned and smiled wryly.
He already guessed about Zecheng's intentions.
“Haha, little brother Lin!”
As soon as the servant opened the door, Zecheng came forward with a wide smile on his face..
And where did he get so much cunning and hypocrisy from??
“Big Brother Yu!” Lin Yi stood up, folding his hands in a gesture of politeness.
“Haha, Brother Lin, there is no need for such politeness! I just came to congratulate you on your promotion!”
