Chapter 771: Don't Follow My Path 【Extra Chapter for Song Xiaozao, the Alliance Leader】
The next moment, Fang Che found himself walking on a dirt path.
Before him, Sun Wutian had changed into coarse cloth garments, his feet still caked with mud, but now he held a tobacco pipe in his hand.
Turning a corner, they passed by the forest, and the small village they had once seen was once again in sight, with quiet smoke rising from the cooking fires.
Children still played and chased each other, just as before.
The roosters crowed and the dogs barked, filling the air with the atmosphere of daily life.
The old man they had met once before was still standing at the door, smoking his tobacco pipe.
Upon seeing Sun Wutian, he immediately stood up with humility, his back bent, and with the obsequiousness of an old farmer, he said, "Has the master returned from the fields? Come in and have a drink of water."
As usual, Sun Wutian stopped and exchanged a few words with Old Wang, words that Fang Che had already heard before.
Then, with a smile and a curse, they parted ways.
But this time, as they reached this point, Fang Che's heart suddenly trembled.
Because from here on, things were different.
As Sun Wutian smiled and cursed, saying, "You shameless old man!"
Just as they were about to leave...
Old Wang suddenly chuckled, looking at Fang Che behind Sun Wutian, and said, "Is this the master's eldest son? He's grown so big. He's grown up so fast and so handsome."
Fang Che's entire body trembled.
His eyes almost bulged out of their sockets.
He had entered this domain once before, and the last time, Old Wang hadn't even noticed him.
It was as if he were the only real person, while Fang Che himself was a ghost, a non-existent entity.
But this time, the old man was actually looking at him and speaking to him.
This scene had never happened before.
Fang Che realized one thing: once such a domain takes shape, especially when it comes to the characters that appear within it, there will be no changes!
Even if he followed Sun Wutian into this domain a thousand times, this old man could only say those few lines that Fang Che had already heard a thousand times, repeating the same words!
That's how it should be!
But now, this old man was saying something different, and even developing the story further.
Adding a sequel!
There was only one possibility for this!
This domain... had evolved!
Fang Che was shocked, looking at the old man in disbelief.
Sun Wutian, however, seemed to take it in stride, tapping his pipe against his shoe, his aged voice carrying a hint of regret, he said, "It's fine, this time I'll take him out to see our land, so that the child won't just think about swinging swords and brandishing sticks, but will also know where his roots lie."
Fang Che's heart trembled at these words: was this referring to the young Sun Wutian, who only knew how to practice martial arts and study martial skills, the young master of the landlord's family?
Old Wang nodded repeatedly, his expression filled with relief, and said, "It's only right, it's only right."
As they watched Sun Wutian and Fang Che walk away, Old Wang's relief continued, "The young master is truly a benevolent person, and from now on, the people of Sun Family Village will be truly blessed, generation after generation, all thanks to the master... These days, there's hope, there's hope."
As they walked further into the village, everyone they greeted had changed.
Everyone they greeted said, "The young master has returned, and he's becoming more and more handsome."
"You're too much, young master is still young, why send him to work in the fields?"
"..."
Upon entering the main house, the servants came to attend to them, and even cleaned the mud from Fang Che's shoes.
Fang Che felt numb all over.
How had Sun Wutian made such a huge improvement?
Although Fang Che had not experienced the profound realm of domains, he knew that Sun Wutian's progress this time was immense.
Had his Heaven-Hating Blade Foundation truly been destroyed?
Or had it been restored?
Or had he made a breakthrough in some other aspect?
"Do you feel the difference?"
Finally, they reached the main room, the same place where they had spoken the last time. Sun Wutian casually smiled and asked.
"A huge difference!"
Fang Che said, "Congratulations, Master, on your breakthrough."
"Breakthrough... Haha."
Sun Wutian shook his head lightly and said, "There's no breakthrough in martial arts, my cultivation is the same as before, but my state of mind has changed slightly."
He didn't explain why he had this change, and Fang Che didn't dare to ask.
After a long silence...
"You let the Murong Clan members go."
Sun Wutian said, "I left them in front of the Donghu Zhou Guardian Hall."
"If you had thrown them away, they might have fallen and broken a few bones, but they wouldn't have died."
Fang Che fell silent, not knowing what to say.
"If you had killed them, I wouldn't have let you in to speak."
Sun Wutian said indifferently, "But you let them go."
Fang Che's heart trembled: just as he had thought.
He didn't know how to respond, so he remained silent. When he felt he had to say something, he simply replied, "Yes."
Sun Wutian sat cross-legged on the chair, tilting his head, deep in thought and confusion.
"The Murong Clan did such a thing, and you still let their descendants go. Why didn't my family encounter such good fortune?"
He mumbled to himself, perplexed, "Even you, a purebred demon, can let those people go, were those who harmed my family in the past even more inhumane than you, a purebred demon?"
Fang Che was speechless.
This time, he truly didn't know how to respond.
He really wanted to say, "How dare you judge others?"
Have you forgotten about the Death-Defying Flying Dagger? Did you ever spare any of the Mu Rong Clan's family members?
How dare you call me a purebred demon?
Besides, I'm really not a purebred demon!
Sun Wutian turned to ask him, "Why did you let those people from the Mu Rong Clan go?"
Fang Che wanted to say that they were just children.
But after thinking about it, he said, "It was Master's arrangement."
"My arrangement?" Sun Wutian frowned.
"Yes."
Fang Che said, "If, from the beginning, Master had put these children together with Meng Huo Qing Yu and the others, then I would have killed them all without hesitation. But after interrogating Meng Huo Qing Yu and the others, and after killing them with my blade, my killing aura has disappeared, and my killing intent has been exhausted."
"Because at that time, I thought they were the last of the Mu Rong Clan."
"So, when Master suddenly told me that their family was not actually extinct, and when I saw the remaining children, I no longer had any killing intent. It was interrupted, and so it was interrupted. That's why I let them go."
Fang Che's words were reasonable.
And the facts were indeed close to that.
Sun Wutian thought about it, and he also felt it made a lot of sense.
"Yes, it was interrupted. The emotions were interrupted, and it's hard to reconnect... Ah, so that's how it is."
Sun Wutian sighed, "At that time, if that person's emotions had been interrupted for a moment..."
Fang Che: When you killed the Death-Defying Flying Dagger's entire family, why didn't your emotions get interrupted?
"But you let these people go... Hehe..."
Sun Wutian suddenly smiled strangely, with a look of sympathy in his eyes as he looked at Fang Che: "Kid, in the future... either make your heart colder, or make it even colder... but don't ever follow my old path..."
What was Sun Wutian's old path?
Fang Che was stunned for a moment.
Then he understood and said, "Master, even if I could walk your path, I would willingly achieve your accomplishments."
Sun Wutian laughed coldly, "But do you know that I would rather not achieve what I have now and would be willing to walk that path again?"
Fang Che fell silent.
"Ah..."
Sun Wutian fell silent for a long time, looking at the familiar furnishings in the room, which had been swirling in his mind for thousands of years with a sense of warmth.
Stroking a chair that had been polished, he said softly, "Fang Che, although you used this reason to evade me, it's impossible to hide the goodness in your heart."
Fang Che paused and said, "That's necessary. When I'm working for the Guardian, my heart must be filled with goodness. Evil thoughts will be detected by others."
"That's good."
Sun Wutian's expression was a bit desolate, and he said, "You should be careful, your goodness, in the future, may become your biggest obstacle!"
"Once a conflict arises, I'm afraid... the whole person will be at a loss."
Fang Che frowned and asked, "Master, how can I avoid it?"
Sun Wutian gave a strange smile and said, "Perhaps, by hardening your heart and not looking back as you walk forward, you can avoid it."
Fang Che fell into silence.
Sun Wutian sighed softly.
Looking at Fang Che, he sincerely felt a clear sense of seeing his past self.
Especially after Fang Che's recent experience, Sun Wutian felt it even more deeply.
Fang Che had just returned from a great achievement for the Guardian, only to face the pain of separation; whereas Sun Wutian had returned after his righteous deeds, only to find his entire family annihilated.
How similar!
"Turns out that in this world, there is reincarnation, and all the dirt, evil, and filth... from ancient times to the present, it's all the same ugly!"
Sun Wutian murmured, "In this world, after seeing through its essence, you'll find that its essence is indeed ugly."
Fang Che acknowledged this, "Yes, the essence of this world is indeed ugly, dirty, chaotic, dark, and unreasonable!"
But in his heart, he added: It's precisely because of this that we must strive to make this world beautiful, peaceful, adorable, warm, harmonious, and bright!
That is our greatest achievement!
Let the dirt disappear, let the demons be crushed, and let this world always have hope.
It may be difficult, it may be impossible.
But if because of these, one becomes disheartened and joins the ranks of demons, singing praises to ugliness; what meaning is there to being born in this world?
Because this world is originally like this.
One more ugly person, one more dirty person, what does it matter?
Sun Wutian then took Fang Che around the village, wandering aimlessly, with his hands behind his back and his waist bent.
Even Fang Che could clearly feel his lack of purpose.
After a long time, they left the village.
Sun Wutian sighed deeply.
Shaking his head, he sighed, "I'm truly getting old... lately, the nostalgic feelings have been growing stronger."
Fang Che remained silent.
Is it really because of old age?
Not because of the White Mist Continent's hand-created prosperous era in Tian Du City?
But Sun Wutian's sigh seemed to end there.
His spine slowly straightened, and his eyes returned to their cold sharpness.
The warm village, the curling smoke, suddenly seemed distant, as if at the edge of the sky, within the domain.
A stern aura appeared once again.
