Dreams and fists shatter the sky

Chapter 259: Understanding Divine Arts

His words were earnest, but even a fool could sense the underlying implications.

Senior Brother felt somewhat aggrieved.

Do you think I'm incompetent?

If it were someone else, I would have already lashed out, but facing this person...

Ye An had already left a psychological shadow on these junior siblings.

They stood silently to the side.

Unexpectedly, Daoist Grey Crane did not try to persuade further; he knew well enough about the abilities of his two disciples.

He smiled and said, "These two disciples of mine may not be of much help in battle, but they can manage daily life."

"Ye Xiong can have them assist you with some daily chores."

"After all, the Divine Realm is a foreign land, and it's unsettling not having fellow beings around."

"Trust me."

Daoist Grey Crane nodded seriously.

Ye An frowned. "There are no strong ones accompanying me?"

Daoist Grey Crane raised an eyebrow. "If you want strong ones to accompany you, those strong ones also need to be willing."

"The Bright Sword Conference is held deep in the Divine Realm, with many powerful members of the Divine Clan. There are significant security risks."

"Someone strong enough to kill you could easily dispose of me too."

"Only someone like a Grand Marshal could serve as a deterrent, but the Grand Marshal must go to look after Ji Qing."

"Do you understand?"

Ye An nodded silently. "Alright, I understand."

He nodded wisely, though he felt uneasy inside.

So there really isn't a top-tier expert willing to accompany me. In this grand feast, I must go alone to the Divine Clan.

But my purpose is for the fortune of the entire human race, not just personal desire.

I view the rise and fall of the human race as my responsibility, but surprisingly, not a single expert from the human race is willing to help me.

This feeling made him somewhat uncomfortable.

"Having these two kids help me with some tasks isn't bad."

Suddenly, a familiar voice sounded abruptly behind Ye An.

He turned abruptly and saw a black-clad swordsman stealthily eating from his refrigerator, with remarkable skill and ease, as if this place were his own home.

"You're so good at this?" Lin Ying asked in surprise, his mouth full of food.

"This should be left by Ji Qing for me."

"Wow." Lin Ying grinned. "You're really lucky, kid."

"It's also the source of fortune."

"So these days, I'll stay here with you first."

"We'll set off together then."

"Okay." Ye An nodded.

On the opposite side of the table, Daoist Grey Crane was shocked and said, "Big Brother!"

"You're going to intervene personally?"

Lin Ying glanced at him disdainfully and said, "Or do you want to go?"

Daoist Grey Crane smiled awkwardly and said, "My cultivation is too shallow, and as you know, my situation is special, so I can't go to the Divine Realm."

"Then, Big Brother, I leave these two disciples to you."

"It's fine, I'll leave first."

"Go, go, go." Lin Ying waved his hand.

Daoist Grey Crane nodded and bowed, retreating, and before leaving, he repeatedly urged the junior siblings to find Lin Ying to learn a move or two for lifelong benefit!

"Also, take good care of my Brother Lin. If I find out you two are too mischievous when I return, you'll be in big trouble."

After that, he smiled at Ye An and Lin Ying before turning and leaving.

Lin Ying stepped forward to the junior siblings, raised his palm, and pinched their shoulders.

The junior siblings cried out in pain and couldn't help themselves.

Lin Ying nodded slightly and said, "You have good talents."

"It's just that your characters are lacking and need tempering."

"Especially you."

Lin Ying stared straight at the flying knife youth and said, "Ye An is risking his life to attend the Divine Clan meeting for the human race, but your revered master dares not accompany him and has made excuses."

"Do you feel embarrassed?"

The flying knife youth lowered his head in silence, his eyes dim.

"Then let me tell you something even more embarrassing about your master."

The flying knife youth raised his head, a hint of fear in his eyes.

But Lin Ying disregarded the other's Dao heart and said, "Three thousand years ago, during the coronation battle, Daoist Grey Crane stood on the side of the Immortal Clan, remaining neutral and never lending a hand to the human race."

"What?" The flying knife youth looked incredulous and said, "He... my master didn't participate in the war back then?"

At that moment, the flying knife youth and his junior sister's Dao hearts were on the verge of collapse.

They had always believed that their master's bowing and kowtowing were just a kind of disguise.

Their master was actually very powerful, just very humble and kind.

Just now, their master said his strength was insufficient and refused to accompany Ye An.

For the first time, the flying knife youth began to doubt his master's strength.

No matter what happened in the past, no matter how humble and undignified his master seemed, it felt like a joke.

But Ye An's journey to attend the Divine Clan meeting was not a joke, it was a serious matter!

Faced with a serious matter, he still chose to bow his head and shrink back as usual.

Now.

Lin Ying told them again that three thousand years ago, during the war that determined the life and death of the human race, your master did not intervene at all, but stayed safely in the Immortal Realm, ignoring everything.

Is this called lacking backbone, a wallflower that follows the wind?

The flying knife youth's nose tingled, his pupils turning red.

So my master has always been just an incompetent coward.

He didn't deliberately put on a low profile; it was because he was ashamed to face others!

"Oh, oh, oh, a little pearl has fallen." Lin Ying laughed heartily and said, "Grey Crane must have been blind to accept you."

"He raised you with great difficulty, and such kindness was shaken by a few words from me."

After saying that, he turned and walked towards the second floor, preparing to find a room to stay in.

As he walked, he said, "Every word I just said is true."

"But the reason why Grey Crane didn't participate in the war was because he couldn't leave the Immortal Realm."

"The sect that taught him Immortal techniques wouldn't let him go unless he gave up all his martial arts and announced to the heavens that he was an ungrateful beast who betrayed his teacher and destroyed his ancestors."

The flying knife youth furrowed his brows and raised his head. "Then why did my master return to the human race later? Because the human race became powerful and the Immortal Clan dared not keep him anymore?"

Lin Ying glanced at him and said, "The human race isn't powerful enough to disrespect the Immortal Clan."

"The reason he could come back is exactly what I said just now."

"Two thousand five hundred years ago, he abandoned all his Immortal techniques and left the sect, returning to the human race."

Upon hearing this, the flying knife youth's pupils suddenly contracted. "So my master is a waste?"

"Of course not." Lin Ying said calmly, "He is an extraordinary talent."

"Two thousand five hundred years were enough for him to regain his former strength."

The flying knife youth lowered his head. "But he hesitated for five hundred years. The coronation battle ended three thousand years ago."

"My master returned only two thousand five hundred years ago."

Lin Ying smiled. "You don't understand your master, do you?"

"What a shameless person he is."

"Since he had decided to come back, he couldn't return empty-handed."

"During those five hundred years, he went to the Divine Clan hundreds of times in the name of the Immortal Clan."

"So, two thousand years ago, the human race and the Divine Clan said, 'We found thousands of secret books of Divine Arts in a desolate wilderness,' starting the era of human cultivation of Divine Arts."

"This is why he couldn't accompany Ye An to the Divine Clan."
