Chapter 120: The shackles I prepared for myself

Of course Fang Yu would not think that Lin Yun was really a demon, she was just analyzing Lin Yun.

Little did he know that this casual complaint happened to be the truth.

"Your answer is actually correct, but the righteous path and the righteous people are not the same concept. The righteous path is absolute justice, but the righteous people are not absolutely righteous. People are selfish, and the righteous people are just wearing the cloak of righteousness."

Lin Yun: “…”

My goodness, Master Fang’s point of view is a bit like that of a cultist.

Lin Yun complained in his heart but didn't dare to say anything. He could only pretend to listen respectfully.

Fang Yu asked, "Are you thinking that if this is the case, then the distinction between the righteous path and the evil path is not that important?"

Lin Yun shook his head and said, "I am stupid. Although I can't explain the reason, I think this is wrong."

In fact, he really thought so in his heart.

He believed that justice existed objectively, but in this world of immortal cultivation, such justice did not exist.

Because this person's personal strength can suppress all the immortal cultivation world. Although there are rules, once an individual or a group possesses the power to transcend the rules, justice and injustice will become meaningless.

What's more, the sword sect he came into contact with was not a good thing, and it also affected his overall view of the righteous path.

However, in front of Fang Yu, Lin Yun would not reveal his thoughts in this regard and had to pretend to be stupid.

But his tactics were quite useful, and although he admitted he was dull, Fang Yu still admired him very much.

Because even if Lin Yun doesn't understand, he is still a man of integrity.

"Righteousness is like a layer of clothing. It is precisely because of this layer of clothing that all righteous people are restrained, so that they act in accordance with the law and in accordance with recognized justice. If someone does something unjust, he will be punished by those who represent justice. If you don't punish injustice, then there is no way to represent justice."

Fang Yu spoke of the righteous path in a very realistic way, and Lin Yun also understood what she meant.

Simply put, the righteous path is the good and lawful camp, and the evil path is the chaotic evil camp. It doesn't matter what you are, but if you stand in the lawful camp, you must abide by the rules of the lawful camp.

People support the right path, not the people in the right path.

"The disciple has learned his lesson."

Lin Yun actually understood the truth a long time ago, but now that he has shown that he has realized it, Fang Yu should feel more accomplished.

As expected, Fang Yu looked at Lin Yun with satisfaction and said, "This is actually a very simple truth, but many people don't understand it. When I was walking in the mortal world, I even heard some cultivators say that the righteous path has too many rules and is restrictive, and is far less free and comfortable than the demon sect.

Little do they know that restraint is to protect others as well as themselves. As they say, if I were a member of the Demon Sect and something they say makes me unhappy, I can easily kill them. Is this the freedom they want? Their freedom is actually just to bully the weak at will. "

Fang Yu said this with a more serious expression, "The rules of our Shenxiao Sect are strict. All actions and thoughts are based on kindness and justice. You should follow the same rules when you become my disciple."

"I don't understand. Isn't the purpose of our practice to break free from the shackles and seek transcendence and freedom? Why do we have to add layer upon layer of shackles on our bodies?"

Lin Yun seemed to be arguing, but in fact, this was also his routine.

Whenever Fang Yu expressed a point of view, he would immediately refute it. Then, Fang Yu would explain her reasoning again, and Lin Yun would look enlightened. This way, Fang Yu would feel that he had listened to her.

On the contrary, if you were right the whole time, Fang Yu would probably think that Lin Yun didn't understand at all and couldn't think, and that this kid was stupid and could not be taught.

As for the truth in Lin Yun's mind, Lin Yun himself knew it clearly, and he was not prepared to consider so many complicated issues for the time being. I just want to live well, live longer, and be more free and at ease.

When I become invincible in the world one day, I will beat up anyone I don’t like!

Fang Yu was not dissatisfied with Lin Yun's objection. She said slowly: "Practice is like sailing on water. You can't see the front or the way back. You look around in confusion. The shackles on your body can point you in the direction. Although the world is big, as long as you move forward in one direction, you will eventually reach the other side."

Lin Yun immediately looked thoughtful.

Seeing this, Fang Yu continued to preach: "We practitioners should take advantage of the benefits of heaven and earth and shoulder our due responsibilities, saving the world and the people and upholding justice. This is the way of the master. This way may not be suitable for you, but the master hopes that no matter what way you take, don't forget that you are a human being."

"The disciple is learning."

Lin Yun looked like he had been educated and his soul had been baptized.

Fang Yu immediately felt relieved, this child is teachable!

"Then let me ask you again, why do you practice?"

The question of why we should practice cultivation is a question that can be big or small.

Lin Yun felt that this question was the most important and was also the key to gaining Fang Yu's approval.

The previous question about the righteous path and the evil path was just an introduction to the topic.

As Fang Yu said, it doesn’t really matter what you think, but you must sit upright.

The second question is different. Why practice will fully take into account subjective thoughts.

"I am practicing cultivation just to gain some skills to make a living. Previously, I was sent to the Demon Sect as an undercover agent. I experienced dangers and was oppressed. I barely escaped death. So, I just want to live well and see this vast world again."

Lin Yun's words also touched Fang Yu's soft spot.

She felt that it was rare for Lin Yun to be able to maintain his inner gentleness and justice after going through so much. Besides, the most instinctive need of human beings is to stay alive.

She was quite satisfied with Lin Yun's answer. She knew that Lin Yun was a smart man. At this moment, he could have answered with a more lofty goal to please her, but Lin Yun did not do so. He was so upright and honest in his heart.

When he has the ability and guidance of his own in the future, his ideas will naturally be different from now.

She did not force Lin Yun to become like her, but she hoped that Lin Yun could inherit her mantle.

But now seeing that Lin Yun was a little reserved, he also felt that maybe he shouldn't be so serious, so he tried to make his expression gentle and said, "You have suffered."

"It's not suffering. Even if I don't do those things, someone else will do them. At least I'm lucky."

Lin Bai Lianhua Yun perfectly demonstrated her kindness and open-mindedness.

But to be honest, he didn't suffer.

But Fang Yu didn't know the inside story, and she was really moved.

She held Lin Yun's hand, trying to use her hand to convey her encouragement and strength to Lin Yun.

Lin Yun: Master, your hands are so soft...

ps: Today's chapter is an extra update, because these two chapters do not have any plot progress, they just express a character's idea, and can also be regarded as showing the state of this world of cultivation.

Some people believe in order, some believe in chaos, some believe that the bigger the fist, the better, but there are also people who believe that the strong should shoulder their own responsibilities.

Many people seem to find something wrong when reading cool novels. They always feel that all the people in the world of immortal cultivation are heartless, unrighteous and unruly. In fact, there is no order without rules. No matter what world it is, rules exist. It’s just that in the world of immortal cultivation, the rules are made by powerful immortal cultivators.

As long as you are strong enough, you don't have to follow the rules.

But some strong people just like to follow the rules. Not only do they follow the rules themselves, they also don't allow others to break the rules. If you are not as strong as her, you have to follow her rules.

It's such a simple truth, but there was already a lot of arguments before. Emmm, what can I say? I added an extra chapter for free. Are you guys on the fifth level this time?
