"Is it very uncomfortable?"
The old man in green looked at his grandson and asked calmly.
Zhao Yunsheng lowered his head and remained silent.
He was too embarrassed to answer.
The old man in green shirt shook his head and continued:
"If you lose, you lose. It's no big deal. The world is so big, there are many people who are stronger than you."
"Let's not talk about anything else. In the Nine Suns Dynasty alone, there are several young freaks that are difficult for you to defeat. I think you know this."
"If that's the case, why bother to think that others are stronger than you? Let him be as strong as he can be, just like the breeze blowing over the hills."
Zhao Yunsheng clenched his fists when he heard this.
He was silent for a long time before he raised his head and said through gritted teeth: "I don't care about the others, and I have never thought about being the number one in the dynasty, but among the Seven Martial Sects, I must be the number one! This is my obsession!"
The old man in green also fell silent.
He looked at the horizon for a long time, then retracted his gaze, glanced at his grandson, and said casually: "Then you will be the first."
Wow!
This one sentence left Zhao Yunsheng speechless, and his face even turned red, filled with shame.
yes.
If you want to get first place, then go ahead and get first place. No one is stopping you. If you can't do it yourself, why are you yelling here?
He gritted his teeth and held his breath, but finally he couldn't hold it any longer and let out a long howl towards the sky.
"ah--"
The old man in green watched quietly.
He could actually understand his grandson's thoughts. After all, he had lived for more than a hundred years and had met countless young people.
There are many young people who have this idea. To take a recent example, wasn’t his son Zhao Panlong the same way back then?
However, his son was luckier than his grandson. He was the most powerful one in the sect and did not encounter any rivals.
As a result, his son always maintained a positive attitude and did not reveal such a dark side. As his cultivation and experience increased, this dark side completely dissipated.
After a long time, Zhao Yunsheng calmed down again.
The old man in green said: "Qin Zi's talent is indeed higher than yours, and it's more than just a little higher."
"If nothing unexpected happens, you will never be able to surpass him in your life. In fact, you can only live under his shadow."
Zhao Yunsheng's body trembled!
The old man in green shirt continued: "Now, you have two choices."
"Or, give up the mentality of competing with him, and assist him in the future, and follow him to revitalize the sect."
"Or...get rid of him!"
When he said the last three words, a cold light flashed in the eyes of the old man in green.
"Are these...these are the only two options?"
Zhao Yunsheng gritted his teeth and struggled internally.
Although he was unwilling to lose to Qin Zi, he did not think of killing anyone because he did not think of himself as a bad person deep down.
He just wanted to become the sect's number one talent and then a beloved sect leader.
He hopes to have a clear conscience.
Only in this way, when he ascends the throne of the suzerain, he will feel the glory, not the shame!
"Having two paths is already pretty good. This is because your father and I are strong enough, so you have two paths to choose from."
The old man in green robes said calmly.
"If you are just an ordinary disciple with no background, you have no choice at all. No matter how unwilling you are, you can only endure it. If you really can't bear it, you will probably be killed in the end."
Zhao Yunsheng was speechless.
yes.
It is already very good to have the opportunity to choose, but if you are still picky, then you are ungrateful.
He thought for a moment, frowned and asked, "But if this kind of infighting is exposed, I'm afraid our lineage will become a pariah. And Elder Qin Chuan... doesn't seem to be a pushover either."
In fact, he still had some resistance in his heart.
He hoped that this reason would make his grandfather think carefully and back off, so that it would not be his initiative to back off.
He will also feel more balanced.
"Haha, do you think I want to kill him?"
The old man in green shook his head and smiled, saying meaningfully: "This method of killing people is too low, anyone with a discerning eye can see it at a glance."
"When I say get rid of him, I mean get rid of him in terms of talent, so that he will never be qualified to compete with you again!"
After saying that, he flashed and appeared in front of Zhao Yunsheng, stretched out his right hand, and then slowly spread it out.
In the rough palm with calluses, there lay a faint blue pill quietly. There were six mysterious patterns on its surface, shining with a strange luster, which made people shudder.
"What's this?"
Zhao Yunsheng's body was a little tense.
He felt that this thing was as fierce as a wolf or a tiger, and could destroy a person's will. Not to mention touching it, he couldn't even think about it!
"This is a sixth-grade elixir, the Great Disaster Pill. Once taken, it will subtly destroy a person's talent, and eventually make them indistinguishable from the crowd."
"It ranks sixth grade. The clever thing about it is that it is a chronic effect. It will slowly take effect over two to three years. And after taking it, it will be completely absorbed into the body, and no trace can be found at all."
The old man in green robes said in a deep voice: "As long as you soak this elixir in tea and let Qin Zi drink it, this serious problem will be solved!"
Zhao Yunsheng took a deep breath, then stretched out his trembling hands and caught the poisonous pill.
"Go ahead, find a chance to invite Qin Zi for tea."
The old man in green robes said calmly.
"Um."
Zhao Yunsheng nodded, then left silently.
The old man in green stood there, looking at his grandson who was trembling slightly and seemed to be in some kind of pain, and sighed.
"Why……"
As a senior figure in the sect, could it be that he really has no bottom line and harms the younger generations of the sect just to make his grandson the sect leader?
In fact, he had no choice but to do so.
Because he can see far.
He knew what kind of personality his grandson had. Now his grandson could not surpass Qin Zi, but he was unwilling to be inferior to others.
His grandson's stubbornness, which was innate and acquired through nurture, cannot be changed.
Therefore, if this situation of two tigers fighting each other continues, the conflicts between his grandson and Qin Zi will only accumulate, and in the end... his grandson will most likely die at the hands of Qin Zi!
He has seen too many examples like this.
So, he could only choose one between his grandson and Qin Zi.
Everyone is selfish.
Of course he would choose his grandson.
"The effect of the Great Evil Pill takes a long time to take effect. Qin Zi still has two or three years. With his talent, if I give him a push in secret, he should be able to reach the peak of the Nirvana Realm and become a sect elder."
He thought secretly in his heart.
…
the next day.
Qin Zi received an unexpected surprise.
Because he passed the twenty-three levels, several supreme elders discussed and decided to make an exception and allow him to enter the Nirvana Pool!
Nirvana Pond.
This is the treasured land of the Seven Martial Sect. Not only does it have a spring full of spiritual energy, but it also contains various precious medicinal materials!
Warriors in the Pure Yang Realm can gain enormous benefits by entering there. As long as their talent is not too bad, they will definitely be able to break through to the Nirvana Realm!
Moreover, there are no side effects.
Because the cost is too high, it is generally not open to the public. Only those who have made great contributions to the sect will be allowed to enter.
Qin Zi was overjoyed to get the chance to enter this time, but the blonde woman reminded him to take it easy.
Don't suck it dry.
Qin Zi stayed in there for a day and a night, and finally, a beast-like growl came from the pool.
"ah!!"
"boom!"
A milky white beam of light shot up into the sky, breaking out of the valley where the Nirvana Pool was located and going straight into the clouds.
"Look, that beam of light!"
“So thick!”
"Senior Brother Qin Zi has broken through to the Nirvana Realm!"
"Hey, aren't all the light pillars in the Nirvana Realm golden? Why is Senior Brother Qin Zi's white?"
"This...maybe it's mixed with other things. I don't understand it either. Don't ask me."
Everyone was amazed and marveled at it.
On the edge of the cliff in the distance, Zhao Yunsheng looked at the huge column of light, first clenched his fists, and then slowly released them.
"Little Green."
He took a deep breath and called out in a low voice.
"Brother Zhao."
The female servant behind him said respectfully.
"Go and invite Senior Brother Qin Zi to have tea, and tell him that I'm congratulating him on his breakthrough to the Nirvana realm." Zhao Yunsheng said expressionlessly.
"yes."
The female disciple nodded, turned and left.
