Chapter 524 I came because I missed you!
"Most of the time he was either unconscious or in a state of obsession. He was seldom awake, and when he was awake he was always on guard against us. I told him that we were only rescuing him and healing him, but he didn't trust us. We couldn't forcefully approach him or explain, as that would only irritate him and be detrimental to him."
So that's how it is!
No wonder Meng Shutong hasn't spoken to the third senior brother until now. First, he was injured too badly. Second, he was very wary of Kuangwang Mountain. Third, he was a loner and didn't like to negotiate conditions. Naturally, he habitually avoided talking and chose to do his own thing in his own way.
And it’s hard to explain why Meng Shutong saved her third senior brother. She can’t say it’s because she likes him, right?
Given her third senior brother's personality, he would only think that this was a bigger conspiracy.
"Why do you want to do such a thankless task? Kuangwang Mountain doesn't seem like a place that likes to do charity."
Meng Zhanlin smiled helplessly.
"Shu Tong has no friends and doesn't like to communicate with others. It's a rare opportunity to save someone and I like him. Should I just throw him out?"
Ye Linglong nodded.
She really can’t throw it away, otherwise she won’t be able to find her third brother.
"By the way, you said before that you would take me to find a magical medicine to repair my tendons and veins. Can Gu Linyuan use this magical medicine?"
"Yes, but his is more difficult to treat than yours."
Ye Linglong nodded. It’s a good thing that it can be cured.
Then she would take her third senior brother with her to look for him. She would not feel at ease if she and Meng Zhanlin were not there to leave him alone in Kuangwang Mountain.
"So, if you still don't understand anything, I can answer all your questions at once."
Ye Linglong thought about it seriously and realized that it was true.
"Is the Arrogant Mountain really a reputable and upright sect?"
When this question came out, even Meng Zhanlin was surprised, and then fell into a moment of thought.
It's over, Meng Shutong is really unreliable. She kept patting her chest when she opened her mouth, but when it came to Meng Zhanlin, he actually hesitated!
"It is indeed a famous family, but whether it is decent or not, everyone has a different definition." Meng Zhanlin smiled: "If you think it is decent, then it is decent. If you think it is not, then it is not decent no matter how famous it is."
"So is that right or not?"
"I think so. Because Kuangwang Mountain participates in various major events in Tianling Domain, such as the Tianling Mansion's assessment, the sect martial arts competition, and various rankings. As long as there is something going on in Tianling Domain, Kuangwang Mountain will be invited to participate. In this regard, we are no different from other sects."
“So what are the differences?”
"If you go out and see someone who deserves a beating, you can just beat him up without any reasoning."
!
"Why can't other sects do this?"
"Because the matter will be reported to Tianling Mansion, and Tianling Mansion will talk to the headmaster."
"Will Kuang Wang Shan not be invited for tea?"
"Yes, but my father will stay for half a month each time he goes there before coming back."
"Why?"
"Because the disciples of Kuangwang Mountain acted ostentatiously and received too many complaints, he simply went there for half a month at a time and asked them to listen to all previous complaints and future complaints and reprimands, so as to save him from running back and forth. In his words, one visit is valid for half a year, which is very cost-effective."
…
Based on the description, Ye Linglong could already imagine the scene of the arrogant mountain master eating and drinking for free and being scolded in Tianling Mansion.
It's probably like going in one ear and out the other. After blocking out all the sounds, it's no different from going on vacation.
"I guess that Tianling Mansion has given up on Kuangwang Mountain."
Meng Zhanlin smiled and nodded.
"As long as it's not a large-scale murder or arson, Tianling Mansion will not care."
"What about catching people to feed snakes?"
"Everyone knows that they can only turn a blind eye, be careful on the road, and try not to conflict with the disciples of Kuangwang Mountain. This matter actually caused quite a stir for a while, but it was finally dropped."
"Why?"
"In the upper cultivation world, it is normal to have conflicts and fights over a disagreement. It is also common to accidentally kill people. If someone is found making trouble and goes to Tianling Mansion, the master will be taken away for a talk, and he will punish the disciples himself after returning. If he is not found, nothing will happen."
Meng Zhanlin paused and continued, "Those who were caught to feed the snakes were all captured after a clash with the disciples of Kuangwang Mountain. They didn't kill them but injured them and brought them back to feed the snakes.
This matter is actually nothing. After all, there have been cases where disciples of Kuangwang Mountain lost and were killed. They were not as strong as others and could only accept defeat.
Moreover, when our Kuangwangshan disciples lost fights and were killed, my father never complained. He always told people inside and outside the sect that if you want to do something, just do it, regardless of life or death. If you don’t want to die, just be careful, and if you want to die, don’t cry even if you become a ghost.”
Ye Linglong nodded.
"So, strength is not absolutely strong. You should be low-key outside and don't easily conflict with others. The upper immortal world is much more dangerous than the lower immortal world. Everyone comes from different realms and doesn't know each other. Too many people will easily lead to chaos, and Tianling Mansion can't control everyone.
It’s just that if the sect behind them is stronger, even if they lose, the other party will give them face and won’t make it too difficult. Therefore, the disciple-recruiting conference is very important for every newcomer to the upper cultivation world.”
This explanation is much clearer than what Meng Shutong said.
"Is there anything you don't understand?"
"No more, thank you, Brother Meng."
"You're welcome."
After Meng Zhanlin gave her a few brief instructions, they got up and left the training room.
She didn't know how much time had passed, but it was definitely a day and a night. She couldn't make it to the initiation banquet that Kuangwangshan had prepared for her, and she didn't know what the situation was like outside.
As soon as the door of the training room opened, a goose-yellow figure fell down.
Meng Shutong was dozing off outside the door. The door was opened wide and she rolled directly into the training room. She was suddenly awakened, opened her eyes, and hurriedly got up.
"Brother, what happened to Third Sister? Is she okay? It's all my fault, wuwuwu, I was wrong, I will never take her to eat, watch, or steal things again!"
As soon as Meng Shutong saw Meng Zhanlin, she burst into howling, so much so that Meng Zhanlin wanted to hit her with his fist.
If she had looked back one more time!
Seeing that she was howling so devotedly, Ye Linglong couldn't bear to disturb her, so she sneaked past Meng Shutong with a hunched back, then ran away.
…
Meng Zhanlin felt a headache when he saw Ye Linglong running so quickly.
None of them is worry-free.
"she…"
Meng Zhanlin was about to speak when he was interrupted by Meng Shutong, who howled and rushed into the training room.
"Gone? Third sister is gone? Is she completely annihilated? Ah!"
…
After Ye Linglong ran out, he went straight to the cold pond where his third senior brother was.
When she arrived, he was sitting in the cold pond healing his wounds. His complexion and condition were much better than before, and his breathing was also calmer. It seemed that the third senior brother really listened to her and healed his wounds well.
Gu Linyuan was so engrossed in his treatment that when he noticed someone approaching, Ye Linglong had been lying by the pool watching for quite a while.
"Junior sister, why are you here?"
"I came here because I missed you."
"They let you get anywhere near here?"
"Well, they didn't stop me."
Gu Linyuan frowned.
"Why didn't they stop you? Did you compromise with them?"
