Chapter 390: I Was Afraid Wind Would Blow In
“Young Master Lin, what is your reason for doing this?” Cha Fu asked. He didn’t think see anything wrong at first, but what Young Master Lin did next slowly confused Cha Fu.
He was offending people for no reason at all, like a headless fly just insulting anyone he met.
If he continued doing this, he would definitely make enemies.
When that happened and if they bumped into an expert, it would be too late for regret.
“What reason?” Lin Fan asked.
Cha Fu felt really helpless and didn’t know what to do. Since that was the case, then he could only remind him subtly, “Young Master Lin, this Julu City has nothing to do with us. Even if we kill all the sect disciples here, nothing will change.”
“So what I am saying is that everyone does things for a reason, so what is your reason?”
Lin Fan smiled, “Reason, I don’t have any reason. I just want to do that. I listen to my own heart and don’t go against it. To put it bluntly, I have a debt to claim from the top sects.”
Cha Fu didn’t know how to reply. What kind of reasoning was that? He didn’t understand it at all.
Zhu Shen had long given up on convincing Young Master Lin. Since things had reached such a stage, then what could he say? They could only continue on this path to see how far they could go.
“Master, I think senior’s words make sense. Although I don’t fully understand what he means, I think it makes sense.” Zhen Xiaobao said.
Cha Fu looked at Zhen Xiaobao and felt like this disciple was starting to betray him.
Xu Furong squatted beside Cha Fu, “Master, I think that you are right.”
After leaving Julu City, the Golden Spirit Valley there reported the situation right away. Experts arriving in Julu City was not a good thing for them. That meant that they had to send experts over to defend too.
Naturally, they had to send someone in the Dao Realm.
But for Golden Spirit Valley, they really didn’t expect such a thing to happen.
The top sects joined hands and created the four alliances.
Golden Spirit Valley was a part of the Celestial Alliance.
Everything was really peaceful now and there weren’t any conflicts between the top sects.
Their plan was all the same which was to see what the Alliance wanted to do.
“Zhu Shen, I suddenly thought about something.” Lin Fan thought for a moment and had a thought. He understood the current situation really well.
The Alliance was the boss and they were much more terrifying that the top sects. After all, the Alliance was united and from what happened before, one could tell that they were going all out to take down the defence lines. They didn’t retreat at all even if many of their generals died.
As for those top sects, if they tried hard, they could wipe out the top sects one by one.
If he wanted to clear out all of them alone, it would be really difficult.
Unless his strength reached a really high level, to be able to punch a person to death no matter what stage of Dao Realm they were had, then he could disregard everything else.
But he was still quite far away from that. Who knew how long it would take?
The Darkness Chief God legacy gave him some ideas.
Which was to take in believers and use faith to raise their strength. The more they believed in him, the more they would benefit. He would then bring the group of them to attack. Thinking about those scenes made him feel really emotional.
“Young Master Lin, what are you thinking about?” Zhu Shen didn’t have any hope for Lin Fan and knew that what he was thinking about would be quite unacceptable.
Lin Fan said, “I am prepared to develop Martial Path Mountain well.”
Huh?
Zhu Shen’s mouth was agape as he looked at Lin Fan. Oh my god, what is this idea?
Develop Martial Path Mountain?
Hadn’t he been doing that in the past, just that it didn’t succeed and he gave up? Moreover, Master Lin did hope that he could continue to stay at Martial Path Mountain.
“Young Master Lin, I feel that we are taking steps backwards.” Zhu Shen spoke his thoughts aloud.
Lin Fan felt a bit awkward. Zhu Shen was right. They were indeed taking steps backwards but as a man, how could he be defeated so easily?
“Zhu Shen, what you say makes sense, but there is still a big problem. Developing it well is not like normal development, it is… serious development.”
When he said these words, he paused after every word, like he didn’t know what to say next. But no matter what, he had to say it.
“Serious development?”
Zhu Shen was stunned and thought that Young Master Lin would tell him some big theory or life lesson. But what was this? There was no sense in his words at all.
“Eh Zhu Shen, don’t look down on this serious development. That is because I am starting to become serious.” Lin Fan said.
Puchi!
Xu Furong couldn’t help but laugh. He covered his mouth right away and didn’t dare to continue.
Cha Fu blinked his eyes helplessly. He had no idea what Young Master Lin was thinking in his head.
Maybe this was just the way young people were.
Zhu Shen asked, “Young Master Lin, what should we do next? Continue forward or head back to Martial Path Mountain?”
He didn’t want to suggest anything anymore.
It wasn’t that he had nothing to say, but he didn’t know what to say.
Lin Fan thought about it, “Turn back and head towards Martial Path Mountain. Since we want to develop the sect, we need to find disciples. As for the specifics, I need to think first.”
The basic idea had formed but he had to think about the specific idea.
Zhu Shen looked at Lin Fan and felt like this was a good idea. Actually, he didn’t want Lin Fan to continue fighting against the Alliance.
This was why he supported Young Master Lin’s decision to head back to Martial Path Mountain.
Safety was of utmost importance.
Any other choice would be to walk closer and closer to death.
Water Domain.
This wasn’t an otherworldly space but just a place covered in water. In the depths there existed a place where people could rest. There were buildings, flowers, and also beasts.
“Brother Lin, we haven’t met in such a long time.” In one of the pavilions, an old man dressed in a coral, green robe said. He gave off an extraordinary aura; his face seemed really merciful and he had a white beard that draped down. It gave one a feeling like he was a sage.
Lin Wanyi looked at him, “Tell me your stance. I have drank with you for 10 days, that should be enough.”
The old man smiled, “Brother Lin, you are a great person. It’s just that you are too anxious. What was that phrase? If something is together for too long it will definitely split, but if it is split for too long it will get together again. Now that the Imperial Dynasty has been wiped out, it means that its luck has run dry, so why try to forcefully turn the tides?”
“Water Emperor, I didn’t come to hear you speak such nonsense.” Lin Wanyi frowned in helplessness.
After leaving You City, he started to find what others called reclusive experts, but to him, these people were just slightly stronger existences.
Water Emperor said, “How is that nonsense? I am speaking the truth. The situation is not something you can control. So what if you are strong? Can you fight everyone in the world?”
“Especially the top sects, they have been waiting for this day and you want to stop them. Have you thought about what will happen?”
Lin Wanyi knew that things wouldn’t be solved so easily, but no matter what, he had to do something. He also recognized what Water Emperor said.
An individual was too weak. Even if he was so strong that he could fight many of those of the same strength, what about 10 or 100?
Could he still beat them?
Water Emperor saw that Lin Wanyi was in deep thought and continued, “Brother Lin, no matter what, you have to admit that the moment the sects work together, you won’t stand a chance. The Imperial Dynasty was able to restrict the sects because of all of you and also because they were in self-preservation and none of them were willing to stick their heads out.
“The times are different. They are all on the same side and based on what I know, they have formed into four alliances. Even if the Imperial Dynasty was as strong as before, they won’t be able to fight back at all.”
Lin Wanyi looked at Water Emperor. His speaking ability gave him no chance to retort at all. Maybe this was the result of a lack of education.
“Since you aren’t speaking, I will take it as if you agree. Let me help you analyze the situation.”
“King Wutong’s revolt was the lethal spark. His appearance gave the sects hope, and at the same time, they paid attention to the Alliance’s attacks. This is why King Wutong shouldn’t have rebelled at all. One has to say that this is fate. The Imperial Dynasty’s luck is all used up and this was coming either way.”
“If it wasn’t for the rebellion, maybe things would change. However, it is too late now and there is no use talking about all this.”
“Hais, to me, the Emperor has no foresight. When I was the advisor and helped him expand land, I played with all the sects like toys in my hands. All of you ended up saying that I had moral issues.”
Water Emperor sighed and was filled with sadness and helplessness.
Lin Wanyi said, “You do have problematic morals. The first Emperor treated you well but you were caught peeping at the princess when she was bathing. It was already decent that he didn’t behead you.”
Water Emperor retorted, “Who peeped, was that called peeping? I realised that there was a hole in the window and the princess was bathing. What if the wind blew in and she fell sick? I had no choice and could only block the hole with my eyes. It was such a good thing but you all said that I have moral issues. I am unable to accept that.”
Keke!
Lin Wanyi laughed coldly. He had nothing to say about this person. As for what happened then, he had no idea as he wasn’t born yet.
“You can leave.” Water Emperor said.
Lin Wanyi shook his head and was about to leave. It seemed like he could only rely on himself.
“Why are you leaving so fast? Aren’t you going to wait for me?” Water Emperor shouted.
Lin Wanyi was stunned, “You… didn’t you say…”
“When did I say anything? I was just grumbling. No matter what, I was an advisor to the Imperial Dynasty. I blame the first Emperor for having no eyes, but I don’t believe the Crown Prince doesn’t. Let’s go, I will follow you.” Water Emperor stood up.
