Chapter 939 Black Hole (Part 3)
"It's not about hoping, it's about firmly believing." Lin Mu looked at Han Yi with relief, her emotions inexplicably complex.
In less than two months, he mastered the essence of the Spring Thunder Blade, condensed its imagery, and broke through to the profound realm.
Even if Han Yi was at the peak of the Soul Condensation Realm before, this speed... is still too fast.
It's the result that others achieve after a year or even several years of hard work.
This qualification...
Lin Mu's expression shifted between joy and worry.
The fact that the culprit in the Thunder Cave incident wasn't found doesn't mean he had no suspicions.
Lin Mu was worried that Han Yi might be involved with other forces, or even be an inside agent planted there.
But then he thought about it.
How many enemies does the current School of All Things have?
Or rather, the forces that oppose the School of All Things are all insignificant and minor forces.
The talent that Han Yi has displayed...
Even among the most powerful forces in the upper three realms, he would be considered a dragon among men.
In other smaller factions, he would be the designated heir, so why would they be willing to send him on such a dirty, tiring, and extremely dangerous mission as an internal traitor?
Moreover...
The School of All Things... doesn't seem to have anything worth coveting.
The heritage is incomplete and resources are scarce.
Apart from a piece of land that no one could take away, it was completely poor.
Lin Mu controlled his emotions, slowly revealed a smile, looked at Han Yi in front of him, and cleared his throat.
"While aptitude is important, faith and hope are also two crucial factors. Especially for my school of martial arts, maintaining confidence and believing in the power of faith often creates miracles. Take our school's founder, Li Leizi, for example..."
"Elder? Are you even listening to me?!"
suddenly.
A male voice, tinged with anger, interrupted Lin Mu's long-winded speech.
"Chen Xin?" Lin Mu looked up at the sound of the voice and found Lu Chen Xin standing up for some reason, looking at him expressionlessly. "What's wrong? Is there something wrong with your cultivation...?"
"Elder, don't you think... this is going a bit too far?" He was interrupted again before he could finish speaking.
"What do you mean?" Lin Mu frowned in confusion. "Chen Xin, just say what you have to say. There are no outsiders here. The future development of the school still depends on you."
"rely on me?"
Lu Chen's chest heaved, and anger began to rise within him.
"Now you know to rely on me? Everyone's gone... and you suddenly remember me? Where were you all this time?!"
"What...what exactly do you mean?" Lin Mu's smile slowly faded as he stared intently at Lu Chenxin in front of him, as if he were seeing him for the first time, his eyes filled with confusion.
"It doesn't mean anything," Lu Chenxin sneered. "I just feel... the elder is being a bit too biased?"
"eccentric?"
Lin Mu glanced at Lu Chenxin, then at Han Yi, as if he had suddenly realized something.
"Chen Xin, you're overthinking it." He explained gently, "It's not what you think. The development of a school of thought can't be supported by one person alone. One hand can't clap; it always needs assistance..."
. "
"Am I assisting him, or is he assisting me?" Lu Chenxin interrupted with a cold laugh. "Elder, you always try to evade people with these kinds of words. Just be blunt. Why was my application for the sect leader's trial rejected? Wasn't it because..."
"Chen Xin!" Lin Mu trembled with anger, his soul shaking and becoming unstable.
He suppressed his anger and tried to explain: "If you don't accumulate enough experience and fail the trial, you'll only hurt yourself in the end. Instead of forcing it, it's better to choose another day, prepare thoroughly, and succeed on the first try."
"For my own good, for my own good, it's the same old excuse again!" Lu Chenxin sneered repeatedly, retorting sharply, "Isn't it best for me to know my own cultivation level and whether the timing is right? Besides, even if I get injured, isn't that my own business?"
"you?!"
Lin Mu's body trembled violently, feeling ethereal and somewhat translucent. He hadn't expected that his good intentions would be misunderstood, with the other party believing he was deliberately suppressing development and had ulterior motives.
"You've hit a nerve, and you can't explain anymore?" Lu Chenxin pressed on, "It seems that what you said about giving them special training was just a pretext, a lie to deceive others into wholeheartedly serving this declining school. Once a newcomer with better qualifications arrives, what you said before will immediately become meaningless."
What are you pointing at me for? What? Did I say something wrong? I'm just asking, didn't you ever intend to fully nurture this junior brother Han Yi from the very beginning?"
"you…..."
Lin Mu was speechless for a moment, pointing at Lu Chenxin but unable to say a word.
It would be a lie to say I didn't have this thought.
Han Yi has better aptitude, better temperament, and is also a good person.
Lin Mu has been nurturing Han Yi during this period, treating him as a future leader of the faction.
But he did not give up on Lu Chenxin's idea. He only hoped that the two of them would work together and lead the school out of its predicament.
It's simply a matter of one being the main character and the other the secondary character, or one being external and the other internal; there's no question of which is more important or abandoning one...
"Sure enough!"
Lu Chenxin's face revealed a mocking expression.
"Fine. I blame myself for being too naive back then, believing your nonsense! Let's leave it at that, this is the end of our relationship, we have nothing more to do with each other!"
Clang! !
Suddenly, a loud bang.
Lu Chenxin suddenly threw a dagger to the ground, then turned and left without looking back.
"Lu Chenxin?!"
Without thinking, Chunhui would have stepped forward to stop him.
Regardless, the future of the school requires a sufficient number of outstanding disciples. Her aptitude as the senior disciple is lacking, far inferior to Lu Chenxin's, so…
We must keep Lu Chenxin.
Lu Chenxin clearly had a bright future, yet he inexplicably ruined it.
Chunhui had no other purpose.
The hope is that he was just confused for a moment and will be able to realize his mistake and return to the right path.
"Hui Ru..." Lin Mu stopped her, his face extremely grim, "Let him... leave..."
He slumped into a chair, staring blankly at the dagger on the ground, lost in thought.
Lin Mu knew from the very beginning who the person who injured Chun Huiru was.
After all, he was the one who gave this dagger-shaped soul weapon to Lu Chenxin. But knowing it is one thing.
Lin Mu refused to believe it and refused to accept this fact.
He couldn't believe that Lu Chenxin, the successor he had painstakingly nurtured, would do such a thing.
Perhaps due to their similar style, small soul artifacts such as daggers are used by many people because they are cheap and plentiful.
first timing.
Lin Mu's subconscious defense was an attempt to exonerate Lu Chenxin.
But now...
Lu Chen's eyes held a fierce, icy gaze, a malice hidden deep within him, long suppressed, raging like that of a wild beast…
Lin Mu had heard some rumors about Lu Chenxin.
that time.
He initially thought it was just a rumor, a misinterpretation, or even simply someone else's jealousy. Although he knew that Lu Chenxin wasn't as honest as he appeared, and that he had used many underhanded methods to become the sect leader.
But as long as Lu Chenxin can maintain his disguise and lead the school forward, it doesn't really matter.
After all, for the current Wuxiang School, a conservative and rule-abiding leader is not enough to lead the school out of its predicament.
so…...
Lin Mu turned a blind eye, pretending not to see certain things, and let Lu Chenxin do whatever he wanted.
The damage to the thunder cave is a minor matter.
only…...
Whatever the reason.
A person who attacked his own senior sister, and even tried to kill her…
Such people with wicked intentions...
His true nature was revealed without reservation.
Think of this.
Lin Mu suddenly burst into a bitter laugh.
He should have died long ago. The reason he survived after transforming into a bound spirit is that he wanted to make up for the mistakes he made back then.
but.
The mistake I made back then has yet to be made up for.
But then he made a fatal mistake.
They misjudged the person.
They trained the wrong disciples.
This plunged the school of thought into an even greater crisis…
"Elder? Elder?"
Lin Mu snapped out of his daze and looked at the two people standing in front of him.
They were also the only two remaining members of the school of thought: Han Yi and Chunhui Ru.
"You..." Lin Mu forced a smile, not wanting them to see his true feelings, "Lu Chenxin... don't worry about him. There's still time before the next ranking competition, as long as... as long as we..."
He tried hard to say something encouraging, but found that no matter how hard he tried, he couldn't get the words out.
"Alright. Everyone, disperse. You two... go down first..." Lin Mu looked bitter and somewhat dejected. Without waiting for Han Yi and the other to reply, he waved his hand weakly, signaling them to leave.
"Uncle Mu..." Chunhui hesitated, as if she wanted to say something but then stopped.
"..."
Han Yi glanced at Chun Huiru and gently shook his head.
The two left at the same time, almost in tacit agreement, without saying a word, the atmosphere heavy and oppressive.
The break between Lu Chenxin and Lin Mu is not simply a matter of the school losing one person; it means that the school's hope of turning the tide in the future has become extremely slim.
After arriving at the disciples' residence, Han Yi and Chunhui separated and each went to their own residence.
After a while.
Han Yi rested briefly, tidied up his things, and headed towards Thunder Cave.
He doesn't have any particular thoughts in mind right now; he just wants to figure out the current situation as soon as possible.
The mysterious and profound emerges from the body.
Whether it was a success or a failure.
Is the inability of the black hole image to manifest externally due to the instability of the initial stage of the Profound Realm and the fact that it has not yet been fully condensed, or is there another reason?
And the divine characteristics recorded in the secret book that should have appeared but did not...
These things...
Lin Mu was clearly in a bad mood and had no intention of answering.
Therefore, no one could help him; Han Yi had to rely on his own efforts to study.
……………
As soon as Han Yi arrived at the Thunder Cave, he unexpectedly spotted Lu Chenxin.
The other person had a gloomy expression and paced back and forth near the Thunder Cave, seemingly unwilling to give up and looking for something.
Han Yi's heart stirred slightly, but he didn't rush to appear. He quietly followed behind Lu Chenxin, observing from a distance.
His strength far surpassed Lu Chenxin's, so much so that he didn't even need to conceal himself; he only needed to hide his physical aura to keep his opponent completely unaware.
