Chapter 856
"Actually, there's something I don't understand. If it weren't for me, you should already be at the academy, studying and cultivating diligently. This would definitely be a good thing for you, not a bad thing. But because of me, you have to stay here and lecture me. Honestly, I feel quite sorry for you, which is why I'm speaking to you so calmly. But I also know that you've obtained quite a few good things from those old fogies, and these things are very beneficial to your cultivation. I understand that, and I can comprehend it. In fact, you can go to the academy and cultivate properly now. There's really no need to waste your time here. Even if you waste more time, it won't be of any use, because I can't agree to your conditions, and you can't agree to mine. You should all understand this, but you're still unwilling to give up because you know that if you could get my help, your losses would be greatly reduced. This would only benefit you, with no harm whatsoever. You should be very clear about this, so you should now honestly cultivate instead of coming to cause me trouble. Because no matter how much trouble you cause me, it's useless. I can't continue to listen to you."
"Actually, I can understand what you're saying, and it's enough for me to think about for a long time. Anyway, I can't agree to your conditions, and you will refuse my conditions, so there's no possibility of us negotiating at all."
Fang Yu looked at Zhang Ruochen in front of him, then smiled and continued:
"Sometimes I'm actually quite envious of you. You have the love of your parents and the companionship of your family. Although your fate is a bit tragic, it's all part of destiny's arrangement. What you will gain in the end will be much better than this. Your final gain will be to become the savior of this world and the entire universe. What a wonderful thing that is! You will become the master of the entire universe."
"You tell me how enviable you are, while I can only escape from one world to another, run from one world to another. What choices do I have? I have no choices at all. I have absolutely no room for choice. So I envy you. If you're willing, I can help you experience my pain."
"I know what you're thinking, and I understand what you mean, but I'm even clearer about what I need to endure and face now. Sometimes you need to do things yourself, and sometimes you need to handle things yourself. These are things you must do and face. So, if you want to live forever, then find the way to live forever yourself, instead of causing trouble for me here. No matter how much you try to cause me trouble, it's useless, absolutely useless. I'm not lying to you; I'm telling you, really, no matter how much trouble you cause me, it's futile. I hope you can understand this principle and stop thinking about bad things. Some bad things are really unnecessary, absolutely unnecessary. If there were even a little bit of need, you wouldn't have ended up like this. And what are the consequences of ending up like this? I think you should know very well. So, my good brother, you must study hard, strive forward, and stop thinking about those bad things."
"Strive for excellence and study hard; that's what you should be doing, not trying to outsmart me. Because no matter how much you try, it's useless. I can't tell you my current situation. So, just be obedient and listen to me. Don't worry about anything else. Just listen obediently, and everything will be fine and won't be affected. If you don't listen obediently, don't blame me for being impolite. Really, you have absolutely no need to be so presumptuous in front of me right now, because you don't have the right or the ability. So just do what you should be doing and don't think about those bad things. Those bad things don't belong to you. Those bad things belong to no one and can never belong to you."
"I just hope you can live a good life and have a wonderful world and a bright future. Don't think about those messy things. There's really no need to care about those bad things, no need to ask about them, there's really no need, not even the slightest need. If there were any need, you wouldn't have ended up like this."
"Alright, I've said everything I needed to say. You should understand what I mean by what I'm saying now, and I hope you can understand a little. Don't think that I'm not doing you any good; I'm actually doing you a lot. If there weren't enough benefits, I wouldn't be here in front of you, nor would I be saying these things to you. It's just that I have to do this, and I can only do this. I hope you can understand all of this and make sense of it. Those bad things don't belong to you. Honestly, there's really no need for them."
"Just do what you need to do, don't worry about me, because I'm useless, utterly useless. If I were even slightly useful, I wouldn't be in this situation. Isn't that right? I've said it so many times, and I really hope you understand. I really hope you understand, don't think I'm just spouting nonsense. I really hope you can understand, but what's the result? The result is that you don't understand my predicament at all. I don't even know how to tell you how many difficulties I have, but I really have a lot of difficulties, and I hope you can understand, but the final result is that you simply can't understand. In this situation, what am I supposed to do? I have absolutely no way out. If I had any way out, I would have quit and wouldn't be here spouting this meaningless nonsense. It's really unnecessary. Even if I said more, would it be of any use? You wouldn't believe me anyway. Sigh, it's really a painful thing, so painful, so incredibly painful, it's unbearably painful."
"Alright, alright, I've made myself perfectly clear. Now go do what you're supposed to do and stop thinking about me. It's no use thinking about it anymore. It's not good at all, absolutely no good. I hope you understand and realize that thinking about those bad things is completely pointless."
"You should be studying hard now, understand?"
"I've told you so much, and I hope you can understand."
"Brother, all you're saying is trying to get rid of me, isn't it? You just want me to stop staying here and go back to the academy to study properly. No, I mean, to go to the academy to study and cultivate properly, instead of staying here. Right? Right? Isn't that the logic?"
"You're right, that's absolutely true. I think that's the logic. What you said is completely correct, and I admire that very much. You're a very smart person, truly intelligent. To be honest, I'm quite surprised by your intelligence. I didn't expect you to be so clever. It's really unexpected and beyond my imagination. It's a real surprise, a huge surprise. Nothing could have surprised me more than this. Now that you know, go ahead and do it. Don't think about those bad things. What do those bad things have to do with you? They have nothing to do with you, right? Don't ask about things that have nothing to do with you, and don't worry about them. This is good for us. Like I said before, if you're good, I'm good, everyone's good. Isn't that a wonderful thing?"
"Since this is such a wonderful thing, then let's not think about the bad things. What's the use of those bad things? They're absolutely useless. If they were even slightly useful, we wouldn't have ended up like this. I think this is good for everyone; it only benefits everyone, without any harm whatsoever. I really don't want things to end up like this, but I hope you can understand what we need to do now. We have a lot to do, a tremendous amount—more than you can imagine. I hope you understand that, and I don't want you to end up like this." I really don't want this outcome, I absolutely don't want it. You should face it all honestly, don't dwell on the bad things. Thinking about them won't help at all. I know what you need to do, I understand what you need to do, and I know what you're about to face. Really, this is a very beautiful thing, truly beautiful, incredibly beautiful. We have so much to do, it's not as simple as just thinking about it. Really, we have so much to do, countless things. Nothing is absolutely bad, and nothing is absolutely good. I just hope you can understand this, I hope you can comprehend this, and stop thinking about the bad things; it's completely meaningless.
"Actually, I'm also quite troubled, because I have absolutely no idea how to persuade you or how to face you. I really have no idea. But luckily, you're shameless enough to come to me on your own, right? This is good for both of us, and there's no downside at all. If all else fails, then I'll just have to face those things myself, right? Alright, you should go now. Don't stay here. What's the point of you staying here? You're completely useless."
"You've already received enough benefits, you don't need to stay by my side anymore. If you can't leave, don't worry, they won't take your life." "If they really do take your life, then I can only say pretend I didn't say anything. Anyway, I don't think they'll take your life."
"This is a fact, and it's the truth. I hope you can understand it, and I hope you can comprehend it. Alas, life is truly a thing full of suffering, it's just too suffering, suffering to the extreme."
"I hope you can understand, and I hope you can comprehend."
"Sometimes I don't understand why I talk to you so much, maybe it's because you're my younger brother now."
"Because of this relationship, I can take good care of you, right? Isn't that the truth? I think that's the truth. I hope you can understand, and I hope you can comprehend that this is truly a beautiful thing, and I hope you can understand."
"You might not believe what I'm saying, or you might think it's all fake, but that doesn't matter. I don't care, and I won't think about it too much. As long as you're willing to do it, that's fine."
Sometimes I hope you can live, and sometimes I think you should just die. Really, just die already, stop thinking about all that nonsense.
"You should be aware of all this, and you should understand all this. Don't think about those useless things."
"Alright, alright, let's get to it. There's no need for those useless ideas."
"You should go study hard and cultivate. What you should be doing is cultivating diligently and then finding a way to kill me. That's what you should be doing, what you should really be doing. Really, that should be what you care about most. You should be thinking about killing me, not talking nonsense to me here."
"Alright, alright, I'm just saying this to advise you not to think about those bad things."
"My brother wants me to go to the academy to cultivate, mainly because I would disturb him while he's here, right?"
"Alright, life is full of suffering. Your suffering is like this, and my suffering is like that. So, we can say that we are in the same boat. Therefore, you need to understand these things. If you don't understand these things, then pretend I never said anything. I really hope you can understand these things and stop thinking about those bad things. What do those bad things have to do with us?"
“Those bad things really have absolutely nothing to do with us. If they had even the slightest connection, we wouldn’t have ended up like this. Don’t you agree? Isn’t that the truth? I think that’s the truth, absolutely the truth. There’s no truth closer to the truth than this.”
"Do things well, work hard, study diligently, and cultivate yourself properly. This is the true meaning of life, the significance of life, yet you don't understand this principle. If you didn't understand it before, you should understand it now, right?"
"You should do as I say, instead of questioning my decision. You don't have the right. Even those old fogies who want to question my decision need to have the right, and clearly they don't have the right or the ability." (End of Chapter)
