Fengyunlu

Fengchen had been gritting his teeth and holding back. After listening to Bai Lu's description of the magic of Yaochi, he thought of the jade talisman again. Although he didn't know what secrets were hidden in it, he always felt that even if he couldn't use it in the end, he would give it a try after everything was over. After all, Luo Hongchen said that once the jade talisman was activated, the cause and effect of the entire Xuanmen would be stirred up, and both the good and the evil would be affected. As the source, Fengchen would definitely be plagued by all kinds of troubles. This is the so-called worldly human heart. He knew in his heart that this jade talisman was not just a thing. There was great power and responsibility behind it. Once it was used, it might trigger a series of unpredictable things. Although Fengchen was extremely curious about the secrets inside, he also knew that once the power was released, he would no longer be the unknown boy, but would become the focus of everyone's attention and the target of public criticism.

Thinking of this, Feng Chen nodded to Bai Lu: "Don't worry, cousin, I understand. Besides, I am so small, the worst case scenario is that I will be kidnapped by you." His words were a little helpless, but also revealed determination. Feng Chen knew that he was not strong now, but he was not afraid. He was willing to take responsibility, even if it meant being tied up.

"It's good to know, but don't let me really do it." Bai Lu said, and secretly glanced at Lei Gong, and then looked in the direction of the ancient cave. Her words contained both a warning and concern for Feng Chen. Bai Lu knew that Feng Chen's future was full of variables, and she hoped that Feng Chen could understand her painstaking efforts and not do anything that would make him regret.

Lei Gong also turned his head at this time, because there seemed to be some movement in that direction, and he could feel it without looking specifically. His intuition told him that there might be some unknown power hidden there, which might be related to the jade talisman in Feng Chen's hand.

Feng Chen also turned his head to look over at the same time. There seemed to be a mysterious aura in his body echoing with something in the distance... He could feel that the power had a mysterious connection with the jade talisman in his hand, as if it was calling him to explore the unknown area.

It sounds a bit cold, but it's not surprising that Feng Chen has resentment in his heart. Think about it, he was originally a descendant of the Feng family. Although he has innate spirits, he has a broken pulse physique. He was depressed when he was a child, and he suffered a disaster three years ago. Feng Chen's life is really rough. He should have been the pride of the Feng family, but because of his natural broken pulse, he was treated coldly and ridiculed, which made him accumulate too much resentment and dissatisfaction in his heart.

At least he survived, and now he entered the Xuanmen, but before he had time to look forward to it, he was arranged by others, and it was discussed in front of him. The so-called consideration for him was actually just everyone's own thoughts, and he was not asked for his opinion at all. Fengchen felt like a chess piece, being manipulated by others, which made him angry and helpless.

Speaking of which, except for Master Gu Yuan, everyone else present had a relationship with Feng Chen, such as Lei Gong, Ji Yao, and Fairy Bai Lu, who had saved Feng Chen's life. However, no matter how great the favor was, one could not just decide other people's affairs, not to mention that Feng Chen was carrying a blood debt and had his own path to walk in the future. Feng Chen was grateful for their help, but he also knew that everyone had their own destiny and choice, and he could not give up his own path because of the favor of others.

Master Gu Yuan looked far and deep, as if she could see through everything. She just looked at Feng Chen without saying anything for a long time. She seemed to be thinking about something, maybe evaluating Feng Chen's potential and future, or maybe thinking about how to guide this young junior.

She was quiet, and the people around her were silent. Only Lei Gong's eyes flashed, but he didn't say much. He was waiting, waiting for what Feng Chen would say next, and waiting for Master Gu Yuan's response. Lei Gong knew that the decision on this occasion would change Feng Chen's life, and he sincerely hoped that Feng Chen could make a wise choice.

After a while, the veil on Master Gu Yuan's face moved slightly, as if she was smiling a little, and her eyes became gentle: "The son follows the father, Feng Wanlin's son is indeed arrogant." Her words contained both praise and expectation. Master Gu Yuan knew that Feng Chen's father Feng Wanlin was an extraordinary person, and she hoped that Feng Chen could inherit his father's last wish and become a real strong man.

Feng Chen didn't respond, but asked again: "If I don't enter the Yao Chi, will the senior still let my Uncle Lei propose the three conditions?" His question was straightforward. He wanted to know whether he had to abide by those conditions even if he did not accept the fortune of the Yao Chi.

"That's right." Master Gu Yuan nodded: "I have said it before, you are you and he is him, you cannot be confused with each other." Her answer was firm and clear. She hoped Feng Chen could understand that everyone has their own responsibilities and obligations, and they cannot escape because of personal preferences.

After hearing this, Fengchen's eyes became clear, without any resentment, as if he had let go of something. He looked at Fairy Ji Yao again, then walked forward and bowed: "Aunt Ji Yao, I'm leaving now. I will have the chance to repay your kindness in the future." There was determination in his tone, and he decided to leave here and find his own way.

Then he said to Lei Gong: "Uncle Lei, although I am reckless, I also have my own way to go. You are good to me and I am grateful. As for your kindness, I may not be able to repay you in this lifetime. In this case, if there is a chance in the future, I will do my best to repay you, Uncle Lei. Or if Pili Hall needs you, I will never refuse. Now I will take my leave." Feng Chen's words were full of gratitude and respect. He was willing to repay Lei Gong's kindness in the future, but he also knew that he should not lose himself because of the kindness.

Feng Chen bowed to Lei Gong, nodded to Fairy Bai Lu, and then turned and left, clean and neat, without even looking at Master Gu Yuan, let alone taking it to heart. His back was firm and resolute, he didn't want to be bound by anyone anymore, he wanted to go his own way.

No one expected such a change. Even Fairy Ji Yao thought Feng Chen would get a great opportunity this time. Unexpectedly, this child had such a strong character and a sense of pride. He would rather not have the opportunity than owe anyone a favor. Feng Chen's choice surprised everyone. He would rather give up the opportunity in front of him than owe anyone a favor.

This kind of character is usually a good thing in spiritual practice, as the heart is as solid as a rock and will not be affected by the outside world. However, if it is used to deal with things, it may suffer a lot. If you are unwilling to adapt, you will naturally miss a lot of opportunities. Fengchen's persistence is admirable, but his stubbornness may also make him miss many precious opportunities.

But things in the world are often like this, there are gains and losses, and it is very balanced. Fengchen's choice is not necessarily a bad thing. Who can really see through the future? So Fairy Ji Yao did not advise anything, but just sighed in her heart, a little regretful. Fairy Ji Yao understood that everyone has their own choice. She respected Fengchen's decision, although she knew that it might make Fengchen lose something important.

Lei Gong, this buddy, really understood what Feng Chen meant. He knew in his heart that he didn't want to become a burden to Feng Chen. Although Master Gu Yuan had said that whether Feng Chen entered Yao Chi or not, the three conditions would not change. However, there was always room for negotiation and reason. The conditions proposed by Feng Chen were just his personal ideas. Whether others accepted them or not was their own business. Feng Chen himself did not really accept these conditions, so Lei Gong felt that he did not owe anyone anything. Therefore, there would be no human ties on the road ahead. Even if Lei Gong wanted to return the three conditions, Feng Chen would not agree, and Lei Gong could not force it. In this way, Lei Gong could also get some relief.

After all, if the person concerned does not cooperate, he has no obligation to cooperate. Then, things will be out of control. In the end, Lei Gong can also return himself to freedom. At least, he will not be bound to Feng Chen all the time. As for Lei Gong's own desire to protect Feng Chen, that is his personal matter. Moreover, this is a little different from Master Gu Yuan's conditions. He only protects Feng Chen's life and does not participate in Feng Chen's affairs.

This is also the bottom line that Fengchen can accept. In his opinion, although he is young, he has already entered the mysterious gate. Although there will be twists and turns in the future, how can one truly grow without going through wind and rain? How can one have a great awakening without experiencing the real life and death? Cultivation is like this. No matter how much others say, it is just their experience. Only by experiencing it personally can one truly understand the true meaning.

This is what is called "the master leads you to the door, but the practice is up to you". Although this principle is simple, few people really understand it. Therefore, although there are many famous teachers in the world, there are only a few truly outstanding disciples. In the final analysis, the wave behind does not rely on the wave in front to push it, but can easily go upstream.

No matter how well it is said, it is only experience. The real accumulation is the result of untold hardships. Just like this principle itself, although it is easy to understand, how many people can really do it when it is really used? Most people hide it, for fear that their disciples will encounter setbacks. However, although there are many geniuses, only a few can reach the top. The fundamental reason is the lack of real suffering. Without experiencing real suffering, you cannot withstand the storms and waves, and will eventually die in vain.

Lei Gong looked at Fengchen's back and seemed to see his old friend in a trance. Back then, his old friend was also such a young man, although only a few years older than Fengchen, but at the age of 18, he was equally stubborn. He would rather suffer a little than be bound by any rules, and even more unwilling to be entangled by everything. It was this kind of character that eventually made him a genius who shocked the world.

Feng Wanlin said goodbye to his elders when he was eighteen years old. Sixty years have passed, and the arrogant young man at that time actually stirred up the entire Xuanmen. No matter whether it is the good or evil, or the high-level cultivators, everyone knows him. He led an inconspicuous small Xuanhu of the Feng family and became the leader of the northern border. While guarding the desert, he shocked the entire Xuanmen. If Feng Wanlin had not been unwilling to become an emperor, Fengshabao would have been a great emperor sect, and how could it still be among the Jiuyao Xianmen when it was calculated by others.

Thinking back to his old friend, Lei Gong thought of himself. Wasn't he also arrogant? In the past four hundred years, he was a late bloomer, and his current reputation was only achieved in the next two hundred years. In the first two hundred years, he only had an arrogant character, so he suffered a lot.

It was not until he met Feng Wanlin that they became close friends and learned from each other. Lei Gong created his own unique skill, Snow Falling in the Sky, and soon mastered the Nine Heavens Divine Thunder Art. His Thunderbolt Hall also became famous throughout the world, no longer just a middle-class Xuanmen, but at the bottom of the Nine Glory Immortal Sect. He himself also had the potential to be a great emperor, but like his old friend Feng Wanlin, he did not want to become an emperor.

Thinking of this, Lei Gong could not help but think of his current situation. The disciples of the Thunderbolt Hall were eagerly looking forward to his recovery from his injuries, and countless creatures of the Thunder Mountain were also waiting for his return. The Spring and Autumn Emperor was supporting himself, and the conditions of Yao Chi were so harsh, and Feng Chen made such a choice. If they were swapped, and his old friend Feng Wanlin was faced with such a situation, what choice would he make?

Lei Gong pondered for a long time, and even when Feng Chen stepped out of the door, he still didn't figure it out completely. Because in his mind, Feng Wanlin would never encounter such a dilemma. Even in the desperate situation three years ago, when the Nine Nether Emperor personally stepped in, the famous guy from ancient times was torn to pieces by Feng Wanlin, and in the end he could only escape with a wisp of his soul relying on the Tongtian Talisman.

Jiuyou was already in such a state, not to mention the minor storm at Thunder Mountain. Although Feng Wanlin also died at that time, Lei Gong felt that even if anyone in the Xuanmen, even if Emperor Cangyun himself went into battle, it would be impossible for him to do better than Feng Wanlin. After all, Jiuyou was a tough guy left over from ancient times. According to legend, the five ancient emperors jointly sealed him. With such a long history, although his true body was a little worn out, it was not something that any younger generation could easily challenge.

Therefore, if Feng Wanlin were in Lei Gong's current situation, he would definitely be invincible. Even if Mo Wenjian attacked sincerely, and with the help of the Demon King and the other guys who came later, they would not be able to take anything from Leiming Mountain from Feng Wanlin. Lei Gong thought about it, but he couldn't figure out what Feng Wanlin would choose now.

However, Lei Gong and Feng Wanlin were close friends, and they knew each other's tempers very well. So Lei Gong could more or less guess how his old friend would make this move. Judging from the current situation, even if he took a step back, Feng Wanlin was really faced with such a choice: to persuade Feng Chen to stay with kind words, or to accept his decision calmly, or to follow him without being restricted by Master Gu Yuan's conditions, or, after listening to Master Gu Yuan's high theory about the immeasurable great calamity and the impermanence of the great way, he would choose to tie Feng Chen up like him.

Finally, Lei Gong shook his head. These choices were not like his old friend's style. Feng Wanlin did things. Regardless of whether there were other ways, even if he had to go to Yaochi to heal his wounds, he would not take Gu Yuan seriously, nor would he leave the problem to Ji Yao, nor would he bet on Feng Chen. In this way, those so-called conditions would not be established at all. He would just force his way in, or exchange conditions with Gu Yuan. Anyway, he would never listen to others' orders.
