Chapter 149:

When Qiao Shuanglin claimed to be one with the light, Hai Wuya’s eye twitched slightly, but he didn’t say much.

No matter who hears about what happened at the medical clinic, they wouldn’t associate this ninety-year-old man with being one with the light, right?

But since Qiao Mu had already said his piece, he had nothing more to say.

Just as he was about to leave, Qiao Mu called out to Hai Wuya.

"Brother Hai, there’s something I don’t understand," Qiao Mu said.

"Inside the clinic, we talk about the essence of martial arts, restoring the world and saving the people… But as soon as I step outside, I’m immediately framed by wicked people and subjected to public scrutiny. Don’t you find that contradictory, Brother Hai?"

Previously, in Hai Wuya’s words, he and people like Qiao Mu were seeds of martial arts, pioneers of martial arts against the Immortal Gate, and they claimed that martial arts were synonymous with humanity.

However, once he stepped outside, the martial artist who upheld humanity in Hai Wuya’s words was immediately pointed fingers at by the people, seemingly framed by someone behind the scenes.

Hai Wuya heard this and turned around to glance at Qiao Mu.

Obviously, in Hai Wuya’s eyes, although Qiao Mu was not affected by the ridicule of the people at the medical clinic, he did feel a bit resentful in his heart.

He thought for a moment and replied,

"In this current era where people lack wisdom and are ignorant… that’s why we martial artists should strive even harder."

Qiao Mu didn’t answer.

Hai Wuya composed himself and said,

"Whether it’s a cultivator or us martial artists, both are much stronger than ordinary people."

"Cultivators and martial artists don’t engage in production, but they require far more resources than an ordinary person could consume in a lifetime, after practicing diligently on their path."

"In this world, there are no deities who can live without the secular world. Cultivators need the offerings from mortals, while we martial artists also require a large amount of meat and medicinal supplements."

"You and I have the martial power we have today, not only because of our own continuous efforts, but also thanks to the support of the common people in this world. The stronger a martial artist is, the more true this statement becomes."

"If you want to wear a black veil, you have to bear its weight."

"Since that’s the case, we must do something for the common people… even if they are shortsighted, foolish, easily manipulated, and constantly criticizing each other."

Qiao Mu looked at Hai Wuya.

Perhaps because Hai Wuya has spent too much time in heavenly prison, even though he is a high-ranking official, he hasn’t had the chance to enjoy much power.

From his response, he felt that this person was not a serious martial artist or high-ranking official at all, but more like a shining idealistic scholar.

"Ahem… If Brother Qiao has no other matters, I’ll take my leave."

Hai Wuya gave a slight cough and turned to leave.

Qiao Mu didn’t argue either, silently watching Hai Wuya walk away in the courtyard.

Hai Wuya is a very kind person, who always treats others well even if they have treated him badly.

Qiao Mu is just like Hai Wuya, he has a big heart. He considers anyone who tries to harm him, especially those who could kill him, as his close friends and remembers them deeply in his heart.

Then, send them to heaven early.

"Hai Wuya wants me to be low-key? Wait for him to investigate slowly?" Qiao Mu silently shakes his head.

He certainly wants to know who is scheming against him… after all, he has made quite a few enemies and it’s hard to keep track of them all.

How to quickly deduce the "Human Path Sutra" without any high-quality deaths?

Qiao Mu had once been hindered in his progress in the Spiritual Refining Method because of the intentional obstruction from the Wuji Association, and he couldn’t make any progress, making it difficult for him to break through to the 3rd rank of the Spiritual Refining Period.

But now he has already come to terms with it.

After the death of the Martial Saint, he has also realized the limitations of the so-called Spiritual Refining Method…

People say that Martial Saint is unparalleled in the martial arts world. No one can compare to him. The existing Spiritual Refining Method might truly not be able to match up with cultivators.



So now that I have obtained the "Human Path Sutra," why should I hold myself back?

"When the sun rises tomorrow, go to the market square and fetch my head." Qiao Mu made a decision.

The heads of executed prisoners at the market square will be displayed on wooden racks for many days.

Forcibly taking someone’s head goes against the laws of Great Yan and is sure to draw the attention of the court.

At that time, I won’t worry about dying with high quality. Sёarᴄh the ηovelFire.ηet website on Google to access chapters of novels early and in the highest quality.

"Qiao Shuanglin? Will Qiao’s family finally appear in the Imperial Capital next time? Let me wait eagerly for that."

Within the Great Dao Sect temple in the north of the Imperial Capital, the returning disciple, Dao Zhen, heard this news and couldn’t hide his excitement on his face.

These few days, he was not in the Imperial Capital but outside enforcing the law, battling with several magic students to stop the Inhuman Disaster in the Zhong Province.

The Zhong Province is like a garden belonging to the Great Dao Sect, and it naturally doesn’t allow others to forcefully take from it.

However, Dao Zhen couldn’t control or care much about the destruction caused during the battles.

Mortals are like tiny insects that provide offerings, if they can be protected, they should be, but if they cannot be protected, then they can’t be protected.

Dao Zhen stood up, and his figure turned into a streak of light that just broke through the sky, but he also heard the voices of the cultivators behind him:

"Hey, Senior Brother Dao Zhen, are you going out again?"

"Senior Sister Dao Xu from the sect said she recently obtained a treasure and has been searching for you to have a battle?"

Dao Zhen and Dao Xu are senior brothers in the same sect, both disciples of Elder Qingyi.

Their cultivation levels are similar, and they both entered the Immortal Gate around the same time, so Dao Xu has a competitive spirit.

But Dao Zhen was a lazy person, who usually only liked observing outstanding ordinary people, and didn’t like fighting or competing, intentionally avoiding it many times.

"Senior Sister Dao Xu?" Dao Zhen heard the name and slightly furrowed his brow, but immediately relaxed, maintaining a calm expression as he smiled and said:

"Well then, I should go now."

He turned into a streak of light and finally disappeared into the sky above this observatory.

After finally returning to the Imperial Capital, his interest was focused on observing ordinary people. How could he have the desire to fight with his fellow senior martial brothers?

"This Senior Brother Dao Zhen is quite friendly… It’s a pity that Senior Sister Dao Xu is not."

"If he can’t find any trace of Senior Sister Dao Xu on this trip, I wonder what he will do…" other disciples sighed.

Although they were from the same sect, disciples of Elder Qingyi naturally held a different status compared to other fellow disciples.

………….

"Qiao Shuanglin, a disgrace in Qiao’s family, seeking fame and reputation?"

"While Qiao’s family in Nan Province is willing to sacrifice everything, Qiao Shuanglin in Zhong Province only cares about gaining fame…"

Storyteller Jiang Chen looked at the secret information in his hand, furrowing his brow unintentionally and glanced at Clairaudience beside him.

"Sir, isn’t this inappropriate?"

"We don’t know if this matter is true or false yet. Isn’t it too early to make a statement?"



"What do you know?" Clairaudience chuckled:

"As members of the Tide Listening Building, it’s our job to report even the smallest snippets of information. Whether it’s true or false, does it really matter that much?"

"Just tell me, isn’t this matter extraordinary enough? Does it not disrupt martial artists’ previous impression of Qiao’s family in Nan Province?"

Jiang Chen opened his mouth but remained silent for a moment.

Clairaudience is a part of the Fantastic Faction in the Tide Listening Building. The things they were tracking before were both strange and true, but now Clairaudience understands the similarities and differences between them.
