Chapter 19: Hate without hatred

Kunlun is like spring all year round, and there is no such thing as the night is as cool as water. But the white dragon now feels like a dark night sky, revealing a hint of chill.

He moved between his eyebrows, and soon there was a sound of footsteps behind him. Without looking back, Bailong already knew who the visitor was, and his spiritual sense had been monitoring this area.

"Disciple Gu Zhongyi, pay homage to the master." After three years of Gu Zhong's incident, he joined the disciple of Yuheng Zhenren again, but he still did not forget Master Bai Long. Unlike Yun Fei, he didn't know where he ran to now.

Bailong turned around and said, "You are already a disciple of Shushan and have achieved success in your cultivation. There is no need to be too polite to me anymore."

"Shushan is also very strict in choosing disciples. If it weren't for your previous teachings from Master, how could I have reached the eye of Shushan? I dare not forget the kindness of the teacher."

Bai Long was not saying anything. It was a good thing to have a filial disciple. He looked at Wuhen carefully. Wuhen felt a little uncomfortable when he saw it. He laughed and said, "Brother Bai, you have not seen each other for several years, but you are becoming more and more famous. Now, on Kunlun Mountain, I am afraid that everyone knows your name as Bai Long, and even the world of cultivation has heard of it. The great situation in Kunlun is all done by Brother Bai. Such courageous means are far beyond my reach."

"These are just small things." Bai Long waved his hand and his face returned to a serious look: "Brother Wuhen, you have big things."

"Me?" Wuhen had a hint of dodging in his eyes. Obviously, he knew what Bai Long was saying. But he still pretended to be ignorant: "What's the big deal for me? Now I have been accepted as a disciple by Yuheng Zhenren, and my cultivation has also entered the ranks of the top ten masters of the Shushan Sect. I am admired by tens of thousands of disciples and have a great prospect."

Bailong said: "I originally thought you were not like the kind of person with a sluggish heart, so I didn't advise you too much to enter the Tao with strength. You should know that using martial arts to enter the Tao and using spiritual medicine to assist in entering the Tao will play a great role in future development, just like climbing a mountain..."

Bai Long wanted to continue talking, but was interrupted by Wuhen's wave. He sighed and said, "I have no choice. You two have all gone so far and entered the Golden Pill stage one by one. If I hold on to the seven swords and wait for the moment of enlightenment to come, I don't know when I will wait. Now there are so many people entering the cultivation world, and even in my Wudang Sect, there are people in the Wudang Sect who have formed a golden Pill first. If I wait any further, the cultivation level of the late Lingxu stage will only make people look down upon it more and more. I don't want others to see me, so I asked: Why is Wuhen, the famous sword god in the world, only in the late Lingxu stage cultivation level? "

Bai Long glanced at him deeply and said, "You are not the kind of vain person."

"People will change. In the past, when we reached our level, we really didn't have to care about anything anymore, so I was so open-minded. But now, this is the world of cultivation. I, a master on the heavenly list of the world, can defeat me any cultivator." Speaking of this, Wuhen sighed lightly. Perhaps even he himself would not have thought that he would become like this.

Bai Long's eyes slowly calmed down after hearing his words. He looked at Wuhen without saying a word. Wuhen turned his head and did not look at him. The atmosphere of the scene suddenly seemed very heavy.

When Gu Zhong saw that the master and Wuhen might be having a quarrel, he hurriedly said, "Master, Senior Wuhen, don't do this, do you have anything to say?" He said to Bai Long again: "Master, we have made great progress in our cultivation. You should congratulate us on our unhappy appearance."

Bai Long said: "After all, you are the Shushan Sect that entered the Qi Refining Stage. You can use spiritual medicine to improve your skills to the Golden Elixir Stage. That's nothing to do. I don't blame you, but I just don't hate, which makes me a little disappointed."

Gu Zhongyi figured out the reason. There was a lot of gap between using martial arts to enter the Tao and relying on spiritual medicine to assist in entering the Tao. For example, his master, after using martial arts to enter the Tao, the Jindan could deal with two masters who were stronger than him in the early stage. Thinking of this, Gu Zhongyi was not easy to speak and stood by and watched.

"Your heart is very confused." Bai Long said after staring at Wuhen for a long time. After thinking about it, he said again: "There must be a lot of articles here. Xiaoyi, tell me, what is the situation after you go to Shushan?"

"After going to Mount Shu?" Gu Zhongyi was stunned at first, and then answered honestly: "After we went to Mount Shu, we went to find you and Miss Su, but we learned from others that you have already gone to Kunlun. After hearing this news, we also planned to go to Kunlun, but next we met Yuheng Zhenren..."

"Xiaoyi, stop talking." Wuhen interrupted Gu Zhongyi's words with a voice. His expression was already a little unhappy.

"You keep talking." Bai Long glanced at him and continued to talk to Gu Zhong.

Guzhong was sweating profusely! On one hand, he was the senior brother Wuhen who took good care of himself, and on the other hand, his teacher, which really made him embarrassed. While he was hesitating, Wuhen sighed and said, "It's okay to tell you. Master Yuheng asked who we are. When we saw that he was a senior of Shushan, it was difficult to hide it. He answered truthfully. Then he told us that we were very qualified and wanted to accept us as disciples and stay in Shushan for further study."

Gu Zhongyi didn't have to make things difficult for him, so he nodded quickly to show that Wuhen said the truth.

Wuhen looked at Bailong and said, "When you hear this, you must know what I mean."

Bailong raised his head, looked up at the endless night sky, sighed and said, "I didn't expect that it was because of me that it implicated you. Although Yuheng's Taoist practice is not high, he can roughly see your qualifications. He knew that with your qualifications, he would definitely have a bright future in the future. But because you have a good relationship with me, and I have a relationship with Shushan. If you allow you to go to Kunlun to find me, it will become a great cause in the future. So, in the name of accepting disciples, he would leave you in Shushan, but in fact he had a bad intention."

"This is because I am too greedy for those advanced cultivation techniques. Actually, I knew all this long ago. That day, I asked Miss Su, and from her, I knew the conflict between you and Shushan, and I doubted Master Yuheng. Later, he gave me some pills to help me improve my skills. Even if I refused, he also used many excuses to let me surrender. At that time, I understood their conspiracy."

Understanding does not mean that he can resist. Bai Long knows Wuhen’s suffering and a bright future, but he is ruined because of his own reasons. He was unwilling to tell the truth about the matter before, but he doesn’t want to make himself feel guilty.

"Shushan, Shushan, we have formed this hatred." Bailong's face no longer had the calmness of the past, and a vague murderous aura emerged from him. Bailong said to Wuhen: "You just stay in my Kunlun. With my reputation in the sect, it will be easy to keep you in Kunlun."

Wuhen looked at the direction of Shushan, and his tone gradually became colder: "Shushan School is a leader of the right path in the world. Its despicable means are indeed worthy of the word "head". If I can enter the Tao for seven swords, its power will not be inferior to Dugu Qiubai, but now everything has become empty words." Wuhen held his hands tightly: "I think I, Wuhen, have never committed a big mistake in my life, but I received this punishment in front of Shushan. How can I feel at ease if I don't take this revenge! Brother Bai's kindness, I will understand. If I come to Kunlun School and live a comfortable life, it will be really difficult to become a great person in the future. Only in the stormy environment of Shushan can I train my will and let me grow quickly. I will not fall behind you too much because of my foundation."

Seeing that he said this, Bai Long did not force it. For a peerless strong man, if their self-esteem is insulted, they must wash it with their own hands before they will be willing to do so.

"Brother Bai, I am in Shushan. First, I am for cultivation, and second, I can provide you with some information about Shushan to facilitate you to deal with them in the future. I know that you are unwilling to participate in the struggles in the cultivation world, but blindly enduring is not a solution. Sometimes, using powerful force to deter you, it will be more effective."

"God has the virtue of being alive. Any sect has its own position and difficulties. The same is true for Shushan. From his position, he said that in order to eliminate enemies that threaten him, he was not at fault. Fighting with Shushan was not my wish, but they bullied people too much, and even my friends were not let go..." Bai Long did not continue, but anyone could hear the meaning contained in his tone. This may be the first time he was angry since he entered the Tao.

Gu Zhongyi understood the whole story while listening to the scene. His original affection for the Shushan Sect was wiped out. He said angrily: "I didn't expect that Shushan Sect is such a despicable and insidious place. No wonder you can't stand them and come to Kunlun. I can't stay in this kind of place anymore, so I will stay in Kunlun with you, Master."

Wuhen shook his head and said, "If you stay, Yuheng Zhenren and others will definitely doubt it."

Bai Long also agreed: "Xiaoyi, because of the qualifications, they don't pay much attention to you. It doesn't matter if you continue to stay there. You can still take care of Brother Wuhen."

When Gu Zhong saw that the master and Wuhen said this, he nodded and said, "Disciple knows, don't worry, master, you won't act recklessly."

"I naturally trust you in this." Bai Long said to Wuhen again: "You have a lot of time to come out. If you stay there, it will inevitably arouse the suspicion of Master Yuheng. It would be better to go back as soon as possible."

Wuhen said, "If we want to come out of the yard where we rest, we will definitely alarm Master Yuheng. Therefore, we simply explained to him that he would come to see you. Although he was unhappy, he agreed. We were old acquaintances, and it was reasonable to meet him. He would not doubt it." He looked at the sky and said, "But it's time for us to go back, so let's say goodbye first."

Bailong nodded and said, "When you arrive at Shushan, be careful."
