When Shuo and Mei Niang came in again, they found that their sister was covered in sweat and her eyes were blurred. Her original rebellious expression had now become like that of a well-behaved and obedient pet.
"Have you heard of killing one's wife to prove one's faith?" This was the first sentence Shuo and Ziwei said.
Shuo and Mei Niang shook their heads and said, "No, what is this?"
Dongfang Yue, who was standing by, said, "I've heard of it. Specifically, when I was a child, I read an ancient book at home. It said that this was a method of forcibly breaking through a realm."
Chen Dadan was a little curious and said, "Killing his wife? Attaining enlightenment? What does that have to do with breaking through the realm?"
Dongfang Yue explained, "There are two types of practitioners. One cultivates the mind and body by purifying desires, and the other cultivates the complementary yin and yang of a Taoist couple. Each has its own merits. Sometimes, when a single method of cultivation fails to break through a bottleneck, a different method will be used."
Chen Dadan was still confused and asked, "What does that have to do with killing his wife to prove his faith?"
Dongfang Yue continued to explain, "Changing a cultivation method from the first to the second is easy. All you have to do is find a partner of the opposite sex. However, changing from the second to the first is more difficult. You must sever all ties and return to a pure and unselfish state. Some heartless people kill their partners themselves. This is called killing one's wife to prove one's Dao."
Chen Dabing's eyes widened in disbelief, "Can this really lead to a breakthrough?"
Dongfang Yue said, "According to ancient records, it doesn't work for everyone. However, due to the extreme sorrow and joy caused by killing a loved one, some people have achieved enlightenment immediately, while others have become possessed. Whether it's enlightenment or possession, it's a breakthrough."
Shuo He and Mei Niang said, "You said that my father killed his first wife, your mother, in order to break through the realm? This is impossible."
Shuo and Ziwei sneered, "Let me tell you a story. Once upon a time, there was a pair of Taoist lovers who were very much in love. They both cultivated to the peak of the Foundation Establishment Stage. The Golden Core is a very difficult threshold on the road of cultivation. For a whole ten years, neither of them could break through. The female cultivator gave up on the Golden Core Stage and gave birth to a daughter for the male cultivator. She began to take care of the husband and children. The male cultivator never gave up. He spent all his family wealth on buying many divine pills, but still could not achieve the Golden Core Stage. Later, he hooked up with another female cultivator, who taught him a secret technique to break through the barrier and achieve enlightenment by killing his wife..."
"Impossible." Shuo and Mei Niang interrupted her and said, "The other female cultivator you are talking about is my mother, right? My mother is kind-hearted, it's impossible."
Shuo and Ziwei sneered and looked at each other: "I now realize that killing you is not the best way to take revenge. Telling you the truth and letting you understand your mother's true face may be the best solution."
Shuo and Mei Niang said, "I won't believe your one-sided statement. Where is the evidence? You have to show me the evidence."
Shuo and Ziwei said, "Of course there is evidence, and it is irrefutable evidence, but I don't have it with me."
Shuo and Mei Niang pleaded with Chen Dadan, "Master, please release her! I want to see the evidence."
Chen Dabao said casually: "Okay, you can handle it yourself."
Shuo and Mei Niang untied the ropes on their sister and said, "Sister, you can go now!"
Shuo and Ziwei were very surprised and said, "Aren't you afraid that I'll trick you? A plan to escape?"
Shuo and Mei Niang said, "I hope you are lying to me."
Shuo and Ziwei's eyes turned into extremely resentful. They looked at their sister as if they were looking at a mortal enemy and said, "I will definitely give you evidence to destroy the image of that woman in your mind."
After saying that, he walked away.
Shuo and Mei Niang looked exhausted. They leaned against Chen Dadan and said, "Master, I'm so scared. Is my mother really the kind of woman she said she is?"
Chen Dabing was eating melon nearby and felt a little curious when he heard the story.
I didn’t expect that there are two ways of cultivation in this world, and one of them can even kill one’s wife.
But it was rare for Shuo and Tianfang to do this. They had practiced together with their wives who had lived together for so many years, but they killed them at will.
It is not necessarily possible for ordinary people to do this, and it is difficult to maintain one's original intention after doing it and not go astray.
In his opinion, this method of cultivation is no different from killing the chicken to get the eggs. It is even very likely to cause him to develop permanent inner demons, and ultimately he will never be able to make any further progress on the path of cultivation.
But these are just one-sided words of Shuo and Ziwei.
Chen Dabing raised his hand and hugged her, comforting her, "You haven't seen the evidence yet! Let's wait and see. The matter hasn't been concluded yet, so it may not be true. There may be a twist!"
Shuo and Mei Niang immediately cheered up and said, "Yes, I am no longer just Shuo and Mei Niang. I am the master's trumpet. I want to start my own business for the master, develop my strength, attack cities, and steal money, food, and women."
Chen Dabing patted her forehead, but was very satisfied with her attitude.
"Then let's talk about what happens next. Although this battle provoked the forces of three legions, it did have the effect of establishing your authority. It will be easier for you to expand your power in the future."
Although Shuo He and Mei Niang want to establish their own power, the power they have now is too little.
Fortunately, they easily defeated 1,500 people in this battle, which was equivalent to defeating a larger force with a smaller one. It was a textbook battle.
When other legions hear this news, they will inevitably feel a little wary of Shuo and Meiniang's army, which will be more conducive to his future development.
The 107th stronghold is still too small, and accommodating 400 people is already the limit. If you want to expand, you must launch a battle.
However, these are not things that Chen Dadan needs to consider. He has already invested everything he should invest.
