Además, también haré mis deberes de filialidad.
No hay nada complicado aquí.
Antes de conocerte, pasé días con el estómago vacío y la barriga en un nudo.
Eso era muy difícil."Liu Xianyang sonrió: "Entonces no tienes que preocuparte, no tienes ningún nudo interior.
Y este no es un camino lleno de obstáculos, ¡sino el Lago de Perfiles!"Meng meng, Chen Guang said, "How could there not be worry?"Pai Qian's eyes sparkled.
"Sensei, I want to say this upfront: it’s unrealistic for me to feel like the children from down below and get close to them.
Right now, at least, I can’t do that.
As for what might happen in the future, I cannot make any promises about tomorrow’s Pai Qian."Chen Guang nodded.
"That’s fine."Pai Qian's mood brightened.
"Haha, Sensei is still being pulled into this mess.
You’re truly a money-losing business!"Chen Guang pretended to be at ease and smiled.
"A small loss, not worth mentioning.
Cultivating in seclusion on the mountain can also become too easy."How could the senior even mention such things to Pai Qian?Chen Guang took out some sunflower seeds, gave some to Pai Qian, and continued, "The following words are something Sensei must tell you when you grow up, Pai Qian."Pai Qian stopped eating the sunflower seeds and said in a serious tone, "Sensei, please speak."Chen Guang said slowly, "First of all, they failed to protect you once.
No matter how many reasons they have, that’s just reality.
Of course, I would love to believe that this time they can do better, but my doubts will always linger.
There is no way I can fully trust them without any reservations;that would be irresponsible towards you and unacceptable for me.""Secondly, Sensei has his own responsibilities.
For example, he needs to travel to the Azure Sky World and visit Yu Du in Bái Yù Jing.
I don’t actually want you or Cui Dongshan to get involved in this matter.
Before going to Bái Yù Jing, things were under control despite our being targets of criticism.
However, Qí Shè and Wǔyán, as a couple and individuals with the highest realms, have to be taken seriously.
It’s simple logic: they represent more trouble because their realms are higher, thus possessing stronger Dao energy and computational power.
Therefore, I must plan ahead, like understanding their intentions and risks if you stay with them for a long time.
Instead of being amiable from the start, it’s better to be straightforward right away;that way, we can avoid future enmity.""Throughout my life, I have experienced great fear only a few times."Standing by a flood-swollen stream in the mountains as a child.Seeing Liu Xi Yang lying ill at an iron smithy when he was young.Returning to Bāo Píng Zhōu after a long journey across continents and meeting Gu Càn for the first time on Shū Jiǎn Lake.In Longjiaolu, when Fire Dragon Master forced Chen Guang into a corner and finally got him to say what was in his heart.After returning as an Official of Secrecy, participating in a meeting by the River of Time, where he met the Sword Bearer and the Sword Spirit for the first time.Facing his true inner demons during seclusion on Poverty Mountain."This time seeing Qí Shè, I felt fear.""Details are best left unsaid.
Whether this is Qí Shè’s sincere heart-to-heart or a strategic move, you can’t know for sure.
This is personal between Sensei and Qí Shè, and it's too early to draw any conclusions.""On the one hand, I shouldn't and won't prevent your reunion with your family;on the other, I cannot simply let you go without any conditions."Before the scholar entered the ship, Chen Guang sat alone in his room, munching sunflower seeds as he pondered.
It was like reviewing a game after it’s over, going through every word and sentence of their conversation.For instance, Qí Shè began by criticizing current Qi Xi practitioners as pretentious, favoring techniques over Dao.
The difference between today's Golden Pillar immortals and those from ten thousand years ago is like the sky to the earth.Regarding the martial arts scene in a hundred years' time, Qí Shè need not say anything;his disdain was evident enough.After visiting Azure Sky World for business, he intended to visit Lin Jiangxian on the way.
However, with Chen Guang’s short cultivation period, Qí Shè might be seen as being overly condescending.
Thus, Qí Shè asked a question that implied a high opinion of Chen Guang: "How do you give life to them?"This was akin to asking about the fundamental Dao.Chen Guang’s reply was measured;he did not deny any connection but said, “I dare not attempt it lightly.”Qí Shè followed up with another statement that openly denied this possibility.
"Soft-hearted people shouldn’t lead." These words, coming from Qí Shè, made perfect sense.After addressing the Dao, Qí Shè asked Chen Guang a question about his heart: "Is your patience due to me being the first martial strategist?"Chen Guang replied diplomatically, neither hurting anyone's feelings nor showing submission.
He could have added that he showed similar patience with Fan Tong and Xie San’na in other situations.Meeting each other at a deserted temple on Píngyuè Zhōu had been an unexpected encounter before.
Now Chen Guang wondered if the exposure of their connection was intentional, especially considering Qí Shè’s words about his preference for Pai Qian over others.Quizás Qí She se cruzó con Míngliú Chén durante sus viajes, ya que de manera sutil mencionó que Chen Guang subestimaba el amplio alcance mental del "Zhan Longzhe".
Era una oportunidad para traer a la memoria un viejo episodio y revelar un vínculo desconocido entre ellos.Chen Guang wondered what other mountain figures Qí Shè might have contacted besides those from Azure Sky World and the Great Harmony World?What were his intentions?After all these probes, Qí Shè concluded that Chen Guang was "very free."Chen Guang replied with a phrase that seemed like casual conversation.
In reality, every word from Qí Shè contained hidden meanings, intended for someone who could understand them.Despite this, Chen Guang did not feel too scared, as he knew the vastness of the world and the possibility of high-ranking cultivators possessing divine vision to see all things clearly.What truly frightened Chen Guang was the realization that his actions had been so transparent.
If not for Liu Xi Yang’s insightful observation, Qí Shè might have skipped over their discussion about the bottleneck and evil thoughts.
What really unsettled him was the woman's comment: "Qí Shè prefers Pai Qian more." Although he didn’t doubt her sincerity, at the time, he couldn’t explain why it felt wrong until he pondered it alone.Parecía que Qi She estaba muy familiarizado con el comportamiento y los puntos débiles de Chen Guang.
