Martial Cultivator

Bailuzhou, Shenshui Villa.

"Master, the young master is here!"

At the entrance of the villa, the old owner Yu Canghai, who was holding a dragon-headed cane, listened to the old housekeeper beside him, and then he opened a pair of muddy old eyes, full of relief.

Two teenagers and a half-grown girl appeared at the door of the villa.

"father!"

Yu Qingfeng came to the old owner of the village in a few steps, supported his father, and complained: "When my son comes home, what are you waiting for? Isn't this a loss of my son's life?"

The old owner of the villa, Yu Canghai, is now very old. He spends most of his time sitting on a recliner and rarely gets up. It is naturally difficult to stand at the entrance of the villa now.

However, since Yu Qingfeng practiced with Chen Chao and became a disciple of the Governor of Daliang, the life of Shenshui Villa in Bailu Prefecture has been considered stable. After all, no one in the world dares to provoke the Governor of Daliang.

"Nonsense, you're not the only one. Are you the one who welcomes me as my father?"

Yu Canghai looked at the two people behind his son, cupped his hands and said with a smile: "Yu Canghai, the owner of Shenshui Villa, has met Mr. He and Miss Ning."

He Liang quickly handed over his hand and said, "Uncle Yu, you don't have to be like this."

Ning Qingnian just nodded. She was holding a wooden sword. Although she was still very green, her aura was now very long. This was also a sign that she had entered the martial arts.

"You are indeed worthy of being the master of the Guardian Envoy!"

Yu Canghai opened his cloudy eyes, full of admiration.

Yu Qingfeng scratched his head and said, "Dad, they are all my junior brothers and sisters, there is no need to be so polite."

"Invite you two to enter the village. The young man has already arranged a banquet."

Yu Canghai ignored Yu Qingfeng. He knew that his son was high-spirited, but his thoughts were not delicate enough. Was he giving face to these two little guys? This is to give face to the guardian envoy. You must know that now not only in Shendu, but also in the entire Liang Dynasty, there has been a consensus that Chen Chao is the most accomplished person in the history of the Liang Dynasty. Substitution At this point, 80% of the people will be liquidated, but what is the current situation?

As long as the guardian envoy is willing, the world will change its dynasty in a matter of days.

The military attachés, garrison envoys and border troops of the Manchu Dynasty all responded immediately to his call from a high position. Who wouldn't give him face for such a person?

After leading a few people into the villa, after having a meal, he arranged for He Liang and Ning Qingnian to stay, and then Yu Canghai and his son went to the ancestral temple.

Yu Qingfeng lit a stick of incense for his brother who died young, and Yu Canghai sighed with emotion: "Your brother's great revenge has been truly avenged. Your master is really a strange man."

Yu Qingfeng nodded and said with a smile: "Master is naturally very powerful. In today's world, is there anyone else who can compare?"

Yu Canghai glanced at his son. Originally, Shenshui Villa was to be handed over to him, but now that he was a disciple of the Chen Dynasty, the path was naturally different, so he no longer pressed for the position of owner of the village. It's just a promising relative and son who can succeed him.

However, the old village owner's time is running out, and there are still some things that he can't worry about.

After thinking for a moment, he asked his son straight to the point, "Qingfeng, tell me honestly, the guardian envoy really has no intention of becoming the emperor?"

After hearing this, Yu Qingfeng turned to look at his father, "Dad, why are you asking this?"

Yu Canghai frowned and said, "Just say it."

"No."

Yu Qingfeng did not hesitate and spoke directly, "Master wanted to be the emperor, so he did it at the beginning. How could he wait until now?"

"What do you know? People naturally have different thoughts at different times. If you didn't want it at the beginning, it doesn't mean you don't want it now. If you don't want it now, it doesn't mean you won't want it in the future."

"The former military attache also said he didn't want to be emperor, but he was asked to put a yellow robe on him, so wouldn't he do it?"

Yu Canghai sighed: "Those who can always control something like power and prevent it from causing trouble are all strange people."

Yu Qingfeng said nonchalantly: "Master doesn't have such an idea anyway. If it does, I guess it's just a matter of convenience."

Yu Canghai glanced at his son several times, then nodded and said: "Yes, he is not the emperor now, but he has been the emperor for a long time. It just depends on what the prince does next. Maybe this time, there will be harmony between the emperor and his ministers. The good words of not being suspicious of each other will be left to future generations.”

Yu Qingfeng scratched his head. He didn't care about these things. All he wanted to do was practice and then... become invincible in the world.

"Son, my father's days are numbered. This is probably the last time that father and son will see each other. Today, my father will say something to you. You should keep it in your heart."

Yu Canghai pointed not far away, where there was already a jar of fairy spring wine.

He had already made up his mind that this time when Yu Qingfeng came back, he would have something to say, but the specific words were still related to Chen Chao's thoughts.

Yu Qingfeng's eyes shone, "Dad, do you still have this Xianquan wine? If there is more, I will bring a jar to Xiao He and others."

Yu Canghai smiled and said, "I've already prepared it."

…

…

The father and son finally took their seats.

Yu Qingfeng picked up the wine jar and poured a bowl of wine for both father and son. Yu Qingfeng smiled as he smelled the aroma.

"First of all, I ask you, my father, do you really think you will be invincible in the future? In other words, if the guardian envoy is still there, are you more confident than him?"

Yu Canghai stared into Yu Qingfeng's eyes.

Yu Qingfeng frowned. In front of his father, he was still not so arrogant. He said truthfully: "Master is here, I can only be behind him."

He opened his mouth and wanted to say the next half of the sentence.

"You want to say that after the guardian envoy is gone, you will be invincible in the world?"

Yu Canghai narrowed his eyes, "Are you really confident that you can surpass your two junior brothers and sisters?"

"That's natural!"

Yu Qingfeng said confidently: "Xiao He's wood is definitely not as good as mine. As for junior sister... there should be no problem."

Yu Canghai said: "Then if you can do this, one day the guardian envoy will be away and you will be invincible. What are you going to do?"

"Naturally, you can do whatever you want and live however you want."

"Not governed by the rules?"

"When it comes to that, where are the rules to control me?"

"Then think about it carefully. Now that the guardian envoy is invincible, can he still abide by the rules?"

"this……"

"Have you ever wondered why?"

Yu Canghai looked at his son, then picked up the wine bowl and took a sip, "Invincible in the world, you can naturally break the rules, but you have no right or wrong in your heart, but just follow your own desires. You will definitely die without a burial place one day."

"Dad, where does anyone say that about a son?"

Yu Qingfeng frowned, very dissatisfied.

"I want to tell you that no matter when you get there, don't get carried away and don't think about doing anything without any restraints."

Yu Canghai said calmly: "Now in the court, all the officials are afraid of the guardian envoy, but why is the guardian envoy still in the court? Just because he is invincible in the world?"

Yu Qingfeng raised his eyebrows, "What is that?"

"It means knowing how to advance and retreat, respecting rules, and being willing to think about things from the perspective of others. The simplest example is that your wife, as the general of the Northern Territory, has made great achievements and has the Xie family behind her? If she doesn't retreat, What can your Highness do?"

"But she really won't retreat. In the future, she will marry the Guardian Envoy and they will become a family. Is this world the crown prince's or the Guardian Envoy's?"

"At that point, even if His Highness the Crown Prince can tolerate it, can all the officials tolerate it?"

Yu Canghai smiled and said: "Of course, you don't have to worry about the guardian envoy. You are not afraid of the shadow when you are upright, but this is forcing others to a dead end."

Yu Qingfeng is thoughtful.

"As a strong man, you must always leave some room for the weak."

Yu Canghai sighed, "If this strong man relies on his own strength to do as he pleases, wouldn't this world go back to its original state?"

At the beginning, those monks outside Fang, relying on their high realm and freedom to act, did not regard the lives of the weak as their fate, and they were weak at the beginning.

Now the weak have become strong, just like the strong ones in the past?

The world has changed, but hasn’t it changed?

Yu Qingfeng lowered his head and thought.

"What do you mean, Lord Guardian, if you don't want to be the emperor? You don't really have the idea of ​​​​changing the world. The prince is not wrong and the country is prosperous. Just because I have meritorious service, I want to change the world? I don't do it, and I will avoid future people from following suit. Things like this will bring peace to the world!"

Yu Canghai said in a deep voice: "To put it more unpleasantly, Yu Qingfeng, according to the city guard's thoughts, maybe we can't leave some means to check and balance you, He Liang, Ning Qingnian, or other people you don't know. , is it possible that when you want to do that one day, that person will come forward?"

Yu Qingfeng frowned and said flatly: "It's impossible, Master is not this kind of person!"

Yu Canghai looked into Yu Qingfeng's eyes, "As a father, I naturally believe that the Guardian Envoy is not such a person, but you need to draw a circle for yourself!"

“You must stay within the circle!”

Yu Canghai coughed a few times and said, "Son, in this life, you need to never give up on yourself when you are at a low point. But when you reach a high place, you must always think about those times when you are at a low point. You must be careful and cautious in your actions. If you get carried away, you may fall." The bottom is always good, but the worst thing you can do is risk your life in one fell swoop.”

"Even if you don't care about your own life, you should still think about right and wrong, and act in the right way. You should not just ask about the pros and cons, just follow your heart!"

Yu Canghai spoke softly, "Dad's nagging is not because he is old."

Yu Qingfeng lowered his head, suddenly took a sip of wine and said, "Dad, I understand."

…

…

"Junior sister?"

Over there in the wing, Ning Qingnian pushed He Liang's door open and sat at the door.

He Liang was originally sitting by the window, holding his chin to look at the moon. When he heard the noise, he stood up. After calling out to his junior sister, his junior sister still ignored him. He was used to it and just smiled.

He originally thought that his junior sister's temper was only towards them, but when they followed her back home and found that she was also like this towards their parents, he really understood.

Seeing that Junior Sister ignored him, He Liang sat back again, looked at the moon, and asked softly: "Junior Sister, do you think Master will come back after we return to the Divine Capital this time?"

Ning Qingnian looked at the back of his senior brother and shook his head, "No."

He Liang turned his head and looked at his junior sister.

Ning Qingnian said nothing.

He Liang didn't know what to say.

Ning Qingnian looked at He Liang, "He tries his best every time. How can he be so lucky to come back every time?"

He Liang groaned, and then became a little anxious, "Then what can we do?"

"Eat well and sleep well. Who told you to be born more than ten years late?"

Ning Qingnian raised her head and glanced at the bright moon outside the window, "Can't you wait?"

——

Under the holy tree.

The tall figure of the Holy Lord faced the towering tree, and the people behind him looked at the tall figure of the Holy Lord.

A holy mountain has remained unchanged for thousands of years. It has always been like this. Every time they worship the sun, the Holy Lord looks at the tree, and they look at the Holy Lord.

I don’t know how many years will pass.

I don’t know how long it has been.

After the ceremony, the Holy Lord turned around, and the left and right guards behind him and a group of star-controlling and star-protecting envoys all raised their heads.

The Holy Lord walked towards the hall.

The left and right guards looked at each other, and suddenly took two quick steps towards the Holy Lord, and came about ten feet behind the Holy Lord.

"What's the matter?"

The Holy Lord's voice sounded, without any emotion or feeling.

"Holy Lord, should we choose a successor?"

The left guard raised his head and spoke. Although the Holy Lord is the true master of this world, he is not immortal after all. Therefore, every once in a while, he must choose a successor and teach the Tao. When the successor is strong enough, it should be his time to succeed the Holy Mountain.

And this deadline is actually always before the destruction of the world.

As for whether the Holy Lord is looking for a woman to have a child outside, or bringing back a disciple, it is the Holy Lord's own business, anyway, no one can say anything.

In short, according to the Holy Lord's vision, the new Holy Lord is naturally the strongest in the world.

"Wait until after the destruction of the world."

The Holy Lord gave an answer, still so indifferent.

"There is a mistake in Nanhua Mountain, just let Hongchi Mountain attack Guishan at all costs. As long as Guishan is seriously injured, everything will be a small matter."

The left and right guards spoke softly. Their purpose has always been to weaken the power of those cultivators. As long as they are weak enough, when they take action, things will naturally be much easier.

The most important thing is that these people will be fine.

"These things have always been what you should do. Tell me more?"

The Holy Lord spoke indifferently, without any emotion in his voice.

The two guards did not dare to say much, but bowed.

Then they watched the Holy Lord return to the hall.

The Star Master and the Star Guardian dispersed.

However, the left and right guards looked at each other with mixed emotions.

Some things always felt strange, but they couldn't tell what was wrong.

…

…

Back in the hall, the Holy Lord returned to the curtain and slowly sat down in the sunshine.

As soon as he sat down, the Holy Lord narrowed his eyes.

But he said nothing and did nothing.
