Moonlight passed through the window, shining down on the long hair, casting a shadow over the thin figure that already bore weariness.
Yet, suddenly he raised his head. A smile burst forth, moonlight illuminating, white teeth clearly revealed, firm and bright.
"I understand, clan leader sir. The future of the entire clan rests upon my shoulders, I will certainly not betray your trust."
Luo Tong Tian was silent for a long time, finally only replying with a few brief words:
"You must be the strongest voice within the clan."
After that he lightly waved his hand, signaling him to withdraw.
"I understand."
Just as Luo Yun Ge turned his back intending to leave, the clan leader slowly added.
"I understand you, especially that temperament and that pride. Standing in the leading position, you will certainly clearly feel your own superiority."
"Moreover, you are originally a genius, so you understand that more thoroughly than anyone."
What Luo Tong Tian wanted to say was that the pride of a genius must absolutely not be lost.
"Therefore, why is the standard this time only one hundred twenty points, instead of one hundred fifty."
He sighed, voice slow as if accepting this fact: "Because I do not demand too high."
"If even your own future you cannot decide for yourself, then you are not qualified to bear this responsibility."
In the chain of tasks Luo Tong Tian required, there were even tasks of consuming accumulation points.
To the extent that even accumulation points must wait for his instruction to be used, then no different from a soulless puppet, born only to be clan leader.
And a puppet absolutely cannot bear the trust of many people.
Like a puppet king, though high in power and position, still forever manipulated by the one behind, obediently sitting on the throne and smiling. A smile just enough, only to reassure the people.
Luo Yun Ge said nothing, only silently lowered his head. Moonlight illuminated his back, while that face sank completely into darkness.
No one knew what expression he carried at this moment. All that remained was silence, letting time slowly pass.
Memory gradually dispersed like mist waiting for early sunlight. All things originally must grow, must continue.
Yet he clearly felt pressure tightening his heart bit by bit.
"Without Entry Dao pill… means no future. Without future… then what will become of my responsibility?"
His eyes were filled with confusion. All things outside still waited for warm sunlight, but in his heart only ice, along with heavy helplessness pressing upon a genius.
The one expected to become warm sunlight, spreading faith for the clan. Yet now, he himself sank in coldness, trembling before what he must face.
Meanwhile, Luo Fei Yang's group was still urgently chasing Luo Wu Chang along with the two Ye siblings.
"Damn it! Where did they go!?"
Luo Fei Yang angrily stomped hard on the ground.
"Yang ge, you should rest a little."
"That's right, you should calmly sit down. Anyway our accumulation points are already enough for several people to exchange for Entry Dao pill."
The whole group advised at once. Their eyes unconsciously swept over his lower body, words concerned yet unable to hide sympathy for the "teapot" of their captain.
"I know you are worrying about him." Luo Fei Yang gritted his teeth.
"But who will spare my younger brother!?"
Thanks to that despicable shameless trick, the group quickly obtained a considerable amount of accumulation points.
Luo Yun Ge once briefly thought of this method. Yet the thought had just appeared was immediately sternly warned by his father.
Elsewhere, Luo Wu Chang panted heavily, running while raising his voice to threaten.
"You two stop! Each give me two points, I will spare you a way to live!"
Truly marvelous. He again used the old trick, shouting loudly, pretending Luo Tian Qiu was about to arrive. And the result was, he truly escaped the encirclement of Luo Fei Yang's group.
Immediately after, he encountered the two Ye siblings. Remembering the principle of "pinch the soft persimmon", he immediately shifted target to them.
At this time, Ye Ling Long suddenly stopped. Her eyes flashed with an unpredictable light.
Ye Fan was confused, not understanding what his younger sister intended to do, only fearing she would be in danger so still tightly holding her hand, unwilling to release.
In truth, he was the one needing protection. A youth besides the ring on his hand, not even a single magic artifact could he utilize.
On the contrary, his younger sister possessed a mid grade spirit tool, absolutely not a girl easily bullied.
Only unfortunately, because restrained by him, her strength had never been fully displayed.
Ye Ling Long drew out a talisman.
That scene caused Luo Wu Chang as if struck by lightning, stunned standing rigid in place.
"You… you…" His hand trembled pointing straight at her, voice choked, as if a lump of anger blocked his throat.
This talisman, he was familiar with to the point of terror. Familiar to the extent unable to understand why she possessed it.
A pink light flashed. Luo Wu Chang's body was immediately covered by wax. His eyes widened, throat stiff, only managing to spit out one sentence:
"Damn…"
"You… you…" His voice trembled, angered to the extent unable to speak.
At that moment, Luo Fei Yang caught up. He swept his eyes around once, then quickly stepped forward, seeing Luo Wu Chang tightly bound then burst into laughter.
"Ha ha… never thought you would also have today." Laughter delighted rang out, seeping into the bones.
Members in the group immediately added.
"Yang ge, next can we defeat him?"
"He truly has fortune yet does not know to enjoy. How about make him call each person captain once, then defeat him one by one in the group. Keep him as a mobile vase, certainly enough points to exchange Entry Dao pill."
"After finishing, each person hit him once to vent anger."
Luo Wu Chang truly had fortune. First admirers of him, then a group once betrayed by him, now still calculating future for him.
"That's right, such an ungrateful person, being defeated also deserved."
Ye Ling Long and Ye Fan stood aside, only speechless, in heart secretly exclaiming: this kind of operation also works?
Luo Fei Yang said in a deep voice: "This kind of wax can restrain for a very long time. The stronger the fragrance, the longer the effect."
Someone worried interjected: "But will it last? I think he can use spells to erode when we are careless."
"Do not underestimate." Luo Fei Yang slowly replied, eyes indifferent. "Its hardness also depends on the scent. We are not in a hurry to defeat Luo Wu Chang. First, aim at the soft persimmon."
After speaking, his gaze shifted toward the two Ye siblings.
Before reacting, within a single breath, pink light flashed again. Wax emerged from the ground, quickly imprisoning each person. Peach blossom fragrance faintly lingered.
"Hmph… many people yet only this much?"
The half burned talisman paused midway, then suddenly burned completely. Wax surged out, restraining both siblings.
Ye Fan at this moment revealed a sorrowful expression. His eyes seemed about to cry, painfully looking at each strand of hair on his younger sister's head.
That scene made people nauseated. Even a licking dog would not be perverted to this extent. Let alone the target was his own blood younger sister, what propriety remained.
"Ling Long, are you alright?"
The whole group could not endure, simultaneously spitting with contempt.
"Two filthy insects."
Luo Wu Chang tightly bound, angrily roared:
"Qiu ge, you dare deceive me!"
"Secretly raising that cheap woman outside!"
Not letting everyone react, Luo Wu Chang had already drawn out a green talisman, spiritual power surging into it, without hesitation.
Luo Fei Yang shouted in alarm: "You… you are not intending to use a high grade talisman!?"
The whole group instantly fell into chaos.
"Hey! Calm down, talk slowly… The power of late Entry Dao realm is not something you can control!"
"Chang Chang, put down the talisman! Do not act rashly, otherwise I report to the academy elder!"
Ye Ling Long's mouth twitched slightly: "Isn't it just a little control? Why make that expression like wanting to eat me alive…"
Luo Fei Yang hurriedly lowered his voice to persuade: "If anything, speak slowly. We are good brothers… right?"
"Do not do anything foolish. Everything can be resolved step by step."
Amid chaotic pleading voices, Luo Wu Chang roared: "I will not forgive you!"
Usually he never paid much attention to the Ye siblings, yet now in his eyes filled with hostility, cold killing intent surging.
The talisman fluttered in the wind, then burned fully. Surrounding space immediately distorted, countless violent winds from all directions surged in, rotating fiercely, like tens of thousands of blades wildly dancing in midair.
In only an instant, a green tornado as thick as an ancient tree trunk condensed, roaring deafeningly.
The violent wind tore apart layers of wax, fragments shattered then dissipated, turning into thin fragrance spreading in air.
Fortunately, the talisman cast by Ye Ling Long had nearly reached high grade quality, just enough to shield those here, preventing wind blades from directly causing injury.
In the office, the academy elder slightly frowned: "Did not expect the little ones to make two kinds of dao principles oppose each other…"
"The skill of Luo Tian Qiu truly cannot be underestimated. As for that girl Ye Ling Long… hmph, only luck, picking up a talisman nearly reaching high grade, now having chance to use it."
He clicked his tongue in evaluation. Yet praise leaned entirely toward Tian Qiu, because he was the one who gave Luo Wu Chang that green talisman.
As for Ye Ling Long?
The Ye siblings were never placed in his eyes. Poor results, even a single spirit tool had never been exchanged.
When seeing Ye Ling Long obtain a mid grade one, he only thought her luck good, now even more convinced of that judgment.
"If only Ye Fan also had a bit of luck like his younger sister… Even if unable to cultivate immortality, at least have capital to protect life."
"If the two die here, also not good matter for Luo clan, perhaps even bring a storm of blood and wind."
Cultivating immortality originally is learning dao principles from heaven and earth. Using dao principles based on one's own will, and wills differ, then even casting the same method. The result achieved is completely different, even leading to failure.
Humans are also a part of heaven and earth. Learning from oneself is also learning dao principles of heaven and earth. Therefore each person's will is also regarded as a kind of dao principle.
This is precisely opposing dao principle.
