However, in the game, Xue Yan wasn’t fooled by Liu Yuan, so he did not get the guidance of a good teacher and friend like Liu Yuan.
He would not have had such awareness and would have been controlled by the demonic sect.
Then, like a small monster, he was beaten up by the players countless times.
So, it was all thanks to Liu Yuan that he was able to pull this child onto the right path and escape his tragic fate.
“The person that Ma Shu wants to bring you to see is the second spy of the demonic sect in the Water Moon Dock. He is also the one who is secretly directing Ma Shu.” Liu Yuan thought for a while, then said in a deep voice with his hands behind his back, “There might be two situations that will happen…”
Xue Yan nodded and said, “Which two? How should I deal with it? I’ll leave it to Senior’s arrangements.”
Liu Yuan said, “The first possibility is that the cultivation of the demonic sect spy is far beyond imagination. I don’t have anything to hide, so I’ll be honest with you. I’m still seriously injured, and I only have a portion of spiritual power of the peak of the Nascent Soul. My current power is less than half of what it used ot be. If he’s above the fifth level of the original level, my chances of winning are relatively small.”
Although he said that, Xue Yan’s eyes were filled with shock. “Peak Nascent Soul and Half-step Soul Formation. In the Immortal cultivation world, he was definitely in the upper-middle class. Most sects would treat him as an honored guest. To be more exaggeratedly, he was also qualified to be called a perfected being or a perfected Lord.”
For the lower-level small sects, they were like ancestors, and it was not too much to worship them.
Xue Yan’s eyes sparkled, and she said without hesitation, “Sut senior doesn’t seem to be worried, he must have a way to deal with it!”
Liu Yuan nodded. “The first scenario might seem dangerous, but it’s actually my first choice. At this point, it’s useless even if you make a move. So, when the time comes, you just have to adapt to the situation. Remember not to panic. I have my own arrangements.”
Xue Yan nodded repeatedly, then scratched his head and said, “Then, then wouldn’t I have wasted Senior’s cultivation? If I can’t help, I’ll be sorry.”
Liu Yuan thought to himself, ‘You don’t understand the pleasure of being a master who scams people. The feeling of sculpting a protagonist’s template and secretly observing him is simply delightful.’
He waved his hand and said with a calm and unpredictable expression, “You don’t understand. When the time comes, it’s time for you to really contribute to the cause of eliminating demons. I want you to enter the demonic sect and obtain information.”
Xue Yan’s pupils contracted. “Um, umm…”
“What, are you afraid?” Liu Yuan asked indifferently.
Xue Yan was excited, “No, this is great! I didn’t expect Senior to entrust me with such an important task. I really can’t express the excitement in my heart!”
Liu Yuan was stunned.
Liu Yuan’s heart was filled with black question marks. He glanced at Xue Yan. This little guy… You’re interesting indeed. I keep feeling like I’ve dug out some amazing person.
“Ahem, ahem, ahem,” Liu Yuan continued, “it’s good that you have this thought. I’ll go on to the second situation.
Xue Yan sat up straight again, listening attentively.
Liu Yuan said, “The second situation is that the spy’s combat power is below mine. At that time, there is nothing to be afraid of. As long as I give you a signal, you can capture Ma Shu and kill him immediately. I will also take action at the same time. It is just that this is more dangerous.”
“I’ll do my best and not let you down, Senior. I’ll kill everyone from the demonic sect,” Xue Yan said with a firm expression.
Liu Yuan’s mouth twitched and he said, “No.”
Xue Yan was puzzled.
Liu Yuan’s eyes were cold, “There are many people in the demonic sect who were forced to help the demonic sect like you. Do you understand? Although these people can’t be called innocent, they’re not unpardonable people who deserve death. In the future, you must also learn to distinguish between good and evil, and distinguish between the saber and the saber-user.”
Xue Yan came to a sudden realization. He cupped his hands and thanked him. “Thank you for your guidance, Senior. Otherwise, I would’ve gone to a dead end again. I’m afraid that I’ll kill indiscriminately and cause a great disaster in the future.”
He was full of admiration for Liu Yuan and felt that he had met a great teacher in life.
In fact, Liu Yuan thought of Ding Luan. Most of these words were from old man, from the day and night he sat down and discussed Dao with Ding Luan.
Of course, the Dao did not refer to the Dao of Immortal cultivation, but the Dao of being a human.
Liu Yuan thought of Ding Luan, who had turned into dust, and felt a little melancholic for a moment. However, this was not the time to be reminiscing. He continued, “It’s good that you understand. The demon sect’s undercover operation usually involves two people working together. They won’t report it to the sect before it’s successful to avoid leaking secrets or accidents. So, we only need to eliminate these two. The rest is the conflict between the Water Moon Dock and Chiyu Villa.”
Xue Yan nodded and then frowned, “But the Water Moon Dock…”
I’ll handle the rest, ” Liu Yuan said. “As for you, I’ll recommend you and one of my disciples to the Jade Mirage Sect.”
“Jade Mirage sect?!” Xue Jie suddenly raised her head and said excitedly.
Liu Yuan nodded and smiled, “Are you very surprised?”
Xue Jie nodded repeatedly. “Yes, yes! Senior, y-you’re from… the Jade Mirage Sect?”
Liu Yuan sighed. “It’s all in the past, so let’s not talk about it. In short, I have an old friend in the Jade Mirage Sect. I’ll ask her to take care of you. It’s not a problem to send you into there, but how much you achieve will depend on your own luck.”
Xue Yan’s heart burned even more intensely. After hearing the two possibilities, he realized that Liu Yuan had made appropriate arrangements for him and even treated him as his own disciple. Not only was he grateful, but he also made up his mind to not disappoint Senior.
When his Dantian was destroyed and he became a disabled person, everyone looked down on him. Even if his parents were still very good to him, they could not hide their disappointment. They did not even have any thoughts of asking him to work hard. They had the wishful thinking that he must have suffered a huge blow and wanted him to recuperate well and not come into contact with anything related to martial arts so as not to be sad.
But in fact, he felt that he could do it! If he could not practice inner force, could he not practice outer force? If he could not practice martial arts, could he not be a human? However, as long as he had such a thought, they would show a sad expression, thinking that he was forcing himself.
To hell with holding on!
Xue Yan hated being treated like a cripple. He hoped to be given expectations, and then rely on his own efforts to overcome all setbacks and gain the recognition of others!
Trusting Senior’s words was the best decision he had ever made in his life!
“Senior, although I have no talent or virtue, I will definitely follow in your footsteps and treat you like my own teacher to repay your kindness!”
While Xue Yan was feeling all sorts of emotions, Liu Yuan looked at his touched face and began to use the method he used to conquer characters to figure it out and gain favorability points.
The result was naturally great…
Xue Yan, the conquering strategy was a success!
Liu Yuan estimated that this favorability must be at least at the level of ‘a vow of love’.
Although the effect was outstanding, why did he feel that something was off?
