The Book Soul Chronicles: Godslayer

Chapter 183 Good intentions

Yu Bingwen and Qingwu remained silent until Qingwu finally broke the silence.

"There are countless paths in this world, and none of them are easy. Geniuses have their troubles, and mediocre people have theirs. You go with the flow, while they have to defy fate to change their destiny. To put it bluntly, it's difficult for both of them!"

"Don't worry, and don't feel too burdened. Our Dao Sect has the confidence to support you. If one path is blocked, try another. When you encounter a problem, solve it. If you can't solve it, go around it and solve it when the time is right. As long as you keep moving forward, you will find the solution to the previous predicament. There are difficulties after difficulties. Once you solve one, there will be countless difficulties afterward. So take it slow!"

These words touched Yu Bingwen. His master would also say some caring words to him, but his master thought long-term and rarely thought about the present. Although his fifth senior uncle was usually carefree, he still had the delicate mind of a woman!

But the more emotional the situation gets, the clearer Yu Bingwen should be that his uncle is someone who is very good at undermining the atmosphere!

Sure enough, Qingwu changed her tone and started praising herself!

Qingwu patted her chest and said with a pained expression, "These are all my experienced tips! You must inherit my mantle! After all, I don't have any direct disciples, so these valuable experiences can only be passed on to you!"

Yu Bingwen's lips twitched. Having been by her side for so long, he had gotten used to his martial aunt's dramatic antics anytime, anywhere. But recently she hadn't been so frequent, and today she was even seriously discussing her insights with him. He had almost forgotten about his fifth martial aunt, the living treasure of their Dao Sect!

Yu Bingwen also began his path of madness!

"Um... Uncle-Master! The experience you're talking about isn't just about lying down when you encounter difficulties, calling for help when things get really tough, bullying others if you can expose your identity, and throwing a tantrum to extort money from the other party if you can't expose your identity, and fighting if you're strong enough, and running away if you're not strong enough!"

Qingwu was so shocked she was speechless. She gave him a thumbs up and said...

"You've summed up my style perfectly! But I have to correct you. How can you, a future sect leader of a refined and elegant family, say such vulgar things? I'm just going with the flow, don't you understand, you brat?"

Yu Bingwen listened to the other party's sophistry and found it more and more reasonable, but he still had a feeling that he was being fooled.

Then he earnestly said to his uncle, "But Uncle, Master said that you cheat people out of spirit stones whenever you do business, and sometimes you force them to buy or sell, and you even say with great remorse that you gave them a discount, but in reality you are just deceiving them and selling to them at one or two times the original price! Most importantly, if you don't like someone, you openly rob them if they are weak, and you scheme against them if they are strong! Master told me to learn less of these things!"

Qingwu was furious when she heard this blunt truth! Her eyes widened in anger.

"What? This old man actually said that about me in front of your own disciple? I think he's just jealous, jealous that I'm younger and more beautiful than him... He's also very stingy; I've asked him for the sect leader's token so many times, but he still won't give it to me! Humph!"

Yu Bingwen sighed, speechless. He showed no humility in betraying his master. On the contrary, he felt that his master and all his uncles and senior brothers doted on this uncle. Even he could feel that his fifth uncle was the most special existence in the Dao Sect. He didn't understand it before, but now he seemed to understand!

The entire sect was so self-disciplined and rigidly adhered to rituals that it seemed devoid of any real life. It was only because of the unconventional Fifth Uncle that everyone seemed to have an outlet for their emotions.

They each carried their own missions, so they couldn't do as they pleased, but Fifth Uncle could. So everyone both loved and hated her, but ultimately they loved and doted on her, which is why they scolded her with disappointment. However, the sect never rejected her, and even the sect's disciples respected her.

In particular, her appearance made the younger generation more lively. They had their own temperament and more distinct personalities, instead of being like their predecessors who either rigidly adhered to the rules for life, or eventually couldn't stand it and did many shocking things, making the rules of the sect more and more numerous, making people more and more miserable, and entering a vicious cycle.

It seems that ever since this senior uncle started, he has broken all the twelve core precepts except for the bottom line, and thus broken the shackles of these constraints.

Many outrageous new sect rules were formulated because of this senior uncle. However, as long as they do not go against the sect's ideals or even harm the common people, everyone will let the matter drop.

The younger generation was also influenced by this. As long as they didn't violate the core precepts, they wouldn't be punished too severely. That's why many young people had all sorts of ingenious ideas. Although some were too outrageous and were punished by the senior uncles of the Enforcement Hall, it still couldn't stop their enthusiasm. Some of them did indeed create new types of magical artifacts, medicines, and formations...

It can be said that the innovations of the younger generation after Qingwu far surpass those of the previous generations. Of course, some disciples of the sect have unique styles, but everyone respects them and tolerance has increased. However, their sense of responsibility has not decreased, and has even increased.

Everyone cultivates peacefully and harmoniously, and they clearly understand the importance of things. There may be friction and conflicts within the sect, but when they go out, they unite against external threats and put all other issues aside.

Perhaps it was because they saw the changes in the sect that Master and the other uncles let Fifth Uncle cause trouble. Fifth Uncle knew his limits and at most lost face, but he would never do anything out of line. That's why Master entrusted himself to Fifth Uncle!

Yu Bingwen smiled and finally understood his master's good intentions!

After Qingwu finished cursing and turned around, he found that the other person was not only distracted, but also staring at him with a silly smile. His heart skipped a beat, and he thought that he had been shocked into a daze because he had spoken ill of his master!

"What are you laughing at? Your smile looks so malicious!"

Yu Bingwen snapped out of his daze and exclaimed, "Huh?"

Seeing that the other person was just distracted, he felt relieved, rolled his eyes, and turned to leave!

Yu Bingwen asked blankly, "Uncle-Master, where are you going so late?"

Qingwu was almost amused by her own amusement, and without turning her head, she replied, "Go to sleep!"

Then the figure disappeared!

Yu Bingwen looked up and saw that the bright moon, which had originally risen from the mountainside, was now directly overhead. The enormous moon was clearly visible, and in its light, Yu Bingwen could clearly see the wooden structure of the mansion at night. He watched Qingwu leave, a faint smile on his face, and then got up and went back as well.
