Chapter 138: Chapter 117: Zhou Qing Resigns

Having determined his future plans, Lu Yuan began to implement them.

He was already practicing Inner Strength, and all he needed to do was follow the process step by step.

It was time to start implementing the plan to cultivate talents.

Lu Yuan found his disciple, Zhou Qing, and explained his plan to him, intending to entrust this task to him.

However, Zhou Qing, who always obediently followed his master’s instructions, chose to refuse this time.

“Master, I have long wanted to ask for your permission to leave,” said Zhou Qing in the study, his face full of shame. “Over the years, I have diligently practiced, but I have only reached the second level of Liuyun Palm Heart

Method, and I am still working hard to break through the third meridian.”

My talent is really terrible.

At my current progress, it takes me four years to break through a single meridian. It will take me at least another fourteen years to complete the Liuyun Palm technique.

Master, you should know that my martial arts practice is not solely for the purpose of strengthening my body and health, but also to seek justice against the Iron Sword Sect.

But at this rate, even after forty years, I may not be able to reach the first-class level.

Not to mention taking revenge on the Iron Sword Sect.”

As Zhou Qing said this, he thought of his murdered father and wife, as well as the unborn child who had died, and his eyes reddened involuntarily.

He was now twenty-two years old, and after forty years, he would be sixty.

At that age, even if he reached the first-class level, could he still fight?

Seeing his disciple’s pained expression, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but frown, “Do you want to seek revenge against the Iron Sword Sect?”

Realizing that his tone was not quite right, he softened his words: “Xiaoqing, it’s not that your master wants to stop you. But you should be aware that without first-class strength, if you seek revenge against the Iron Sword Sect now, you are only going to your death.

Master promised your father that I would take good care of you.

Are your actions in line with your father’s expectations and in recognition of my nurturing?

If you really want revenge, you can wait a little longer. Master’s martial arts skills are improving rapidly, and I should be able to break through to the first-class level within twenty years.

By then, you will only be forty years old and should be able to break through to the second-class level. Your master will accompany you on your quest for revenge then.”

Lu Yuan said sincerely.

He had already set his sights on the Tiejian Sword Technique of the Iron Sword

Sect, and he himself had practiced the Iron Sword Sect’s supreme Mental Technique. Naturally, there was an irreconcilable hatred and conflict between them.

Therefore, on the issue of dealing with the Iron Sword Sect, Lu Yuan’s interests were aligned with those of his disciple.

“Thank you, Master.” Zhou Qing was deeply moved by his master’s consolation and promise, and couldn’t help but shed tears. However, he still shook his head and said, “This is my own affair, and it is up to me to seek revenge.

Master, you saved my life and taught me martial arts, which is a great kindness that I can never repay in this lifetime.

At this moment, how can I involve my master in my personal vendetta and let him take risks for me?

If I do that, I would never have peace of mind. Even in the afterlife, my father would scold me.”

This filial disciple wiped away his tears, then looked at his master and implored, “I want to deal with this matter myself and not bother Master. Moreover, Master can rest assured that although I want vengeance, I will not blindly seek it and throw my life away at the Iron Sword Sect.

I’ve thought it through.

Relying on diligence and hard work alone, there’s no hope for me to avenge my family in this lifetime. To realize my long-cherished wish, I must find a way to rapidly increase my strength.

Previously, Master gave me the Blood Jade Divine Medicine, just one of which enabled me to break through a meridian.

If I want to advance rapidly in my Cultivation, I can only count on such divine items.

Therefore, I would like to ask for Master’s permission to venture out into Jianghu and seek such divine items.

Though I may be disobedient and arrogant, I hope Master will grant his permission.”

Zhou Qing knelt down and kowtowed to Lu Yuan, begging for his consent.

Looking at his disciple, Lu Yuan couldn’t help but fall silent.

He could understand his disciple’s feelings, but precisely because he understood, he found it difficult to dissuade him at this moment. Should he persuade him to abandon the idea of revenge?

Lu Yuan couldn’t utter such words, nor did he want to.

After much contemplation, he sighed helplessly, “Do you know that divine blood variants like the Blood Jade Centipede are extremely rare in the world? Even your master only got this item by a fluke chance.

Without luck and destiny, even if you search for them, most likely you will find nothing and return empty-handed.”

In fact, over the years, Lu Yuan had been investigating the origin of the Blood Jade Centipede.

After all, who in the world wouldn’t want such divine items that could increase one’s skills?

But after careful investigation, he was almost certain that this divine blood variant was closely related to the Poison Sect.

Because the characteristics of the Blood Jade Centipede were very similar to the descriptions of the centipede among the so-called Five Sacred Insects of the Poison Sect in the Jianghu lore.

However, for precisely this reason,

Once he knew this, Lu Yuan abandoned the idea of going to the mountain to try his luck and see if he could find a second divine blood variant.

The Poison Sect was not to be trifled with.

Just by killing one of their “Five Sacred Insects,” he had already offended them to death.

At present, he should not reveal his identity, and should be cautious in hiding himself.

He would only court death by going out to confront them openlY>

Furthermore, by extension,

If the Blood Jade Centipede was raised by the Poison Sect, then it could be deduced that other divine blood variants in the world might also be tamed by powerful factions, right?

Seeking divine blood variants meant they would inevitably clash with other powerful forces, which was extremely dangerous.

Lu Yuan did not want his beloved disciple to wander into Jianghu and end up provoking some powerful sects, only to be slapped to death by them.

That would be too tragic indeed.

Yet, Zhou Qing seemed determined.

Hearing his master’s advice, he shook his head firmly and said, “Disciple knows that chances are slim on this journey. But if I don’t go, there will be no hope at all. ”

He continued, kowtowing again: “Master, I feel immense guilt for not being able to repay your kindness in person. However, I cannot forget my family’s blood feud.

If I am fortunate enough to gain a fortuitous encounter, master a divine skill, and avenge my slain family,

Then I will return to my master’s side, beg for forgiveness, and devote myself to serving you in your old age.”

As he finished, his head fell to the ground, and he did not rise again.

Gazing at this scene, Lu Yuan knew that he could no longer dissuade his disciple.

He sighed in his heart and helped Zhou Qing up before handing him the copied book: “Xiaoqing, when a young bird grows up, it longs to soar through the sky on its own. Your master will not stop you from venturing into Jianghu to avenge your family.”

Putting the book into Zhou Qing’s hand, he encouraged, “This is a copy of the ‘Replenishing Qi Heart Sutra’ that I prepared for you earlier, along with some of my cultivation insights. Since you’re leaving, take this with you.

I don’t ask you to be completely safe while surviving in the dangerous world of Jianghu, where dangers are everywhere.

However, I do ask you to promise me this: when faced with a difficult situation, think carefully, do not act rashly, and always prioritize your own life..”
