You are already cultivating immortality, who would fight with you alone?
Chapter 320: The Shadow of the Forest (2)
"Alas! Her talent is just too poor... Even if she spends her entire life practicing, the Refining Void Realm is the peak she can reach."
Lin Ying shook his head slowly, his eyes revealing deep regret and helplessness.
Looking back on the past years, in order to help her improve her cultivation and break through the bottleneck, he had traveled thousands of miles and searched for all kinds of rare elixirs in the world.
However, even with such an effort, one cannot ultimately change the trajectory of fate.
The fire of her life burned for only seven thousand years before it was quietly extinguished in the long river of time.
When mentioning this, Lin Ying's weather-beaten face revealed an expression of nostalgia that was hard to conceal.
He raised his head slightly, staring into the distance, as if he saw through the void the figure who once accompanied him.
"Living too long is not necessarily a blessing... Watching those close to you pass away one after another, the pain and loneliness are really unbearable."
Lin Ying murmured to himself, his voice low and filled with endless sorrow.
First there is the sorrow of seeing the young die, and then there is witnessing one loved one after another gradually growing old and passing away.
Every separation from life and death was like a sharp blade, leaving deep scars on his heart.
Now, he wanders alone in this world.
Those warm smiles and kind words have all turned into bubbles in memories, which may be washed away and disappear in the torrent of time at any time.
"I often wonder, in this long journey of life, what is the real meaning of living? Is it just to constantly experience loss and pain?"
"Power... My Six Sects have been ruling the Central Plains for nearly ten thousand years!"
“Thinking back to the time when Wuji and I stood side by side, together we stood at the top of this world, overlooking all living beings!”
Recalling the glorious days of the past, a hint of pride appeared on his face.
"I have experienced all the wealth and honor that I never enjoyed in my previous life..."
However, when it came to this, Lin Ying's originally bright eyes gradually dimmed, as if covered by a dark cloud.
"But ah...even with all this, I still feel so lonely deep down inside."
He sighed softly, his voice full of helplessness and loneliness.
Perhaps due to sleepiness, Lin Ying's eyelids began to feel heavy, but he still forced himself to continue, "Over the years, I have been searching for those so-called sons of destiny, just because I have a glimmer of hope in my heart - to find an old friend from my hometown among them.
In this way, it can be proved that the seventy years that passed by in the previous life were not just an illusory dream..."
"Fortunately you showed up..." Lin Ying stared at Liu Yuntian, with indescribable joy in his eyes.
"If you hadn't appeared, I would have thought that the blue planet in my memory was just a figment of my imagination."
Liu Yuntian nodded slightly, indicating that he understood Lin Ying's feelings.
He picked up Lin Ying's wine bottle on the table, raised it gracefully, took a sip of the wine, and slowly asked, "Do you miss home?"
After a brief pause, he shook his head again and continued, "If you think about it carefully, the time you have spent on this land far exceeds that of your previous life. Strictly speaking, this place should be considered your home."
"Hehe..." Hearing this, Lin Ying first chuckled in relief.
He responded calmly: "Actually, no matter where I am, it's the same to me."
At this moment, he suddenly changed the subject and asked seriously, "Six Gates...how do you plan to deal with them?"
Liu Yuntian did not give a direct affirmative answer. Instead, the corners of his mouth slightly raised, revealing a mysterious smile.
Then he asked in a pretentious manner: "Then according to your opinion, how should I deal with it?"
Hearing this, Lin Ying said without hesitation: "Kill them all..."
Liu Yuntian couldn't help but be slightly stunned. He didn't expect Lin Ying to give this answer.
He guessed that Lin Ying would most likely plead for them.
But he didn't expect that he would actually instigate himself to kill his former subordinates.
"You don't feel bad?"
Lin Ying shook his head.
"They are just puppets of Heaven..."
"The last order I gave them was to take revenge on the Holy Land of Weapon Refining..."
"Now... they should have started fighting among themselves, right?"
"That's right, they split into two factions and the fighting was quite fierce, but I have sent the executioner to deal with them." Liu Yuntian nodded and explained the recent situation.
Lin Ying sighed, "One of them is the son of destiny that I raised..."
"After I die, in order to better implement the will of Heaven, they will replace me as quickly as possible to preserve the influence of the Six Gates."
"The other faction is purely profit-seeking. They have no sense of justice and only care about their own interests."
"If you want to fight against Heaven... killing them would be like cutting off an arm of Heaven."
Liu Yuntian slowly stretched out his fingers and knocked three times lightly on the small table next to the bamboo couch.
With a puzzled look on his face, he asked, "Why do you tell me this?"
Lin Ying did not answer directly, but silently turned his gaze to Wuji who was in deep sleep.
Whispering softly: "If you had not appeared here..."
After a short pause, he continued, "Then the ones who should fight against this destiny should be me and Wuji..."
After saying this, he suddenly turned around, stared at Liu Yuntian, and asked, "You are a body of karma, right?"
Before Liu Yuntian could respond, Lin Ying sighed and continued, "Actually, Wuji is the same."
Hearing this, Liu Yuntian couldn't help but frowned slightly, "I always thought he was the son of destiny..."
Then, as if he remembered something interesting, a slight smile appeared on his face.
With a hint of sarcasm, he said: "It is hard to imagine that a gentleman as upright and upright as him would be regarded as a villain like me."
"Anyone who goes against the truth of heaven can be regarded as a villain..." Lin Ying explained calmly.
After a pause, he added, "One day, when you succeed in overthrowing it... then it will naturally become the so-called villain, and you will be transformed into the being that represents the truth."
"us?"
Liu Yuntian was stunned when he heard this, then he sneered and said, "Do you think I would leave Wuji as a stumbling block?"
However, facing Liu Yuntian's questioning, Lin Ying remained silent, as if he had not heard it at all.
Seeing this, Liu Yuntian felt suspicious and looked carefully.
Only then did he realize that Lin Ying was lifeless at this moment, as if he had lost all signs of life.
Liu Yuntian opened his mouth.
But when the words came to my lips, I couldn't say anything.
Even if I say it, he...can't hear it.
Looking at Wuji on the bamboo bed, Liu Yuntian took a deep breath.
He muttered to Lin Ying's corpse, "If he dares to hold me back..."
"I won't keep him!"
