With the three men’s a*surance, the scene suddenly fell silent.
Lin Shenfeng looked at the three Chen Yan, pondered for a moment and said to Qing Yu, “Senior Brother Meng De, Senior Brother can also vouch for Senior Brother Chen Yan, if Senior Brother Chen Yan misses his words, Senior Brother will definitely seek justice for Senior Brother.”
Qing Yu also looked at this sudden jump out of the fourth, Lin Shen Feng eyes sincere, does not seem to be fake, plus his previous behavior in the battle, you can see that this should be a completely good person.
Chen Yan and the others ——
They also look like the standard good guys out of the Shanhe Academy, after all, they have practiced “Hao Ran Zheng Qi”.
Wait, why do I think they are decent people, just because they have practiced “Hao Ran Zheng Qi”?
Suddenly, Qingyu felt that he had lost sight of the truth. Is the cultivation of “Hao Ran Zheng Qi” the righteousness of a gentleman?
What about Qing Yu? What about Feng Jiu? What about Han Wenxin?
Leaving aside these three special cases, what about the unnamed senior who betrayed the academy? It couldn’t be another impostor, could it?
Besides, even if one is a so-called good person, does it necessarily mean that one cannot lie? There’s a term for it: “a good lie”.
Qing Yu found that he had been at Shanhe Academy for a long time and his thinking was somewhat limited. The main thing about a decent person, apart from the judgement of others, is that he or she has a clear conscience.
So, is it hard to have a clear conscience? It is. There is a saying that “you can fool others, but not yourself”.
Is it simple? It’s also very simple. If you really want to lie to yourself, it is very simple, as long as you want to.
Even in Qingyu’s previous life, when the quality of culture was far more developed than in ancient times, it was still impossible to completely deceive oneself. Even in that era, it was still impossible to completely eliminate the influence of evil cults. Every now and then a cult would pop up and no matter how hard it was to get rid of it, it could never be eliminated. People are always good at lying to themselves.
Moreover, Qing Yu thought of one more thing, or rather, one side of the power. The Northern Zhou Emperor, his desire for the Heavenly Son’s martial arts was definitely no less than that of the Great Qian Emperor. According to what Lu Qifeng had said, the reason why the Northern Zhou Emperor was extremely partial to Feng Qiwu, apart from Feng Qiwu’s own excellence, he also valued the fact that he could potentially bring himself the Heavenly Son Martial Arts.
So, would Chen Yan and the three of them cheat the Northern Zhou Emperor out of the Heavenly Son martial arts? It is possible, in Qing Yu’s opinion, it is highly probable.
“Heaven and earth, the ruler and his teachers”, the objects of Confucian reverence, the ruler still preceded the teachers.
However, although there was this suspicion, suspicion without evidence was just that: suspicion. Chen Yan had the a*surance of three people, including Lin Shenfeng, that Qing Yu would be a bit small-minded and overly attached to fame and fortune if he tugged on the Heavenly Son martial arts, so ——
“Cough ——” Qing Yu coughed violently several times and said, “What senior brother Chen Yan said is extremely true, I am deeply injured and indeed unfit to keep this matter of great importance, therefore, I wish to hand it over ——”
Qing Yu stretched his voice, “—— Senior Brother Feng Jiu for safekeeping.”
Qing Yu shoved the pure white crystal in his hand into the hands of Feng Jiu who was supporting him, “Senior Feng Jiu, it’s in your hands.”
Feng Jiu immediately burst into tears, moved by this trusting entrustment from his senior brother, and nodded deeply, “Please feel free to entrust it to me. My brother vows to protect this object to the death.”
“Please do so, Senior Brother Feng Jiu.” Qing Yu likewise looked deeply at Feng Jiu.
“Hold on.” It was Chen Yan again, he hurriedly interrupted, seeing everyone looking at him, feeling that he was acting a little too eagerly, he added, “Senior Feng Jiu’s power is still shallow, I’m afraid he is not strong enough to keep such an important object.”
Heh, after all, he was still a bit shallow in his experience and was acting a bit too impatient. Qing Yu was finally sure that there was something wrong with this Chen Yan. Not only was it Chen Yan, but the other two scholars who strongly supported him, I was afraid that they were also unrelated to Chen Yan.
Feng Jiu said indifferently, “Whether senior brother’s kung fu is deep or shallow, there is no need for senior brother to worry about it yet. If there are any more enemies, I will be the first one to cast the “Blue Blood Shine on Dan Xin”, and I will burn my life to stop them from succeeding.”
Chen Yan turned a deaf ear to Feng Jiu’s words and asked Qing Yu, “Senior brother Meng De, do you not believe in senior brother?”
“Senior Brother Chen —— cough ——” Lin Shenfeng heard the words and was about to exit, such words, already considered very rude. Only just as the words began, they tugged at his injury again, causing a coughing fit.
The first thing I did was to say that I had a lot more faith in my friend Feng Jiu than I did in Chen Yan, who I had never met before. Moreover, Senior Brother Feng Jiu is a member of the Northern Zhou Imperial Family, as well as a core student of the Academy, most believe that he will never let the Heavenly Son Martial Science fall into the hands of the Great Qian.”
“Hmph, Feng Jiu used to be that unbearable virtuous, rivers and mountains are easy to change, so who knows if he has the determination to do so. Moreover, this literary contest for the throne is different from the past, involving both the Northern Zhou and Great Qian dynasties, and is not just about the victory or defeat of the academy and science. Senior Brother Meng De, if senior brother is correct, you are from the Great Qian, right?”
Chen Yan had completely torn his face off, spewing a wild spray directly at Qing Yu and Feng Jiu. Although he was right, Qing Yu and Feng Jiu were indeed not good people.
“Brother Chen Yan, it seems that the enemy we have to face is not the Great Qian people hiding in the shadows, but you.” Feng Jiu said indifferently.
“Senior brother, are you really going to make a move?” Lin Shenfeng also looked at Chen Yan in disbelief.
He was not a stupid person and could see who was deliberately looking for a fight; Chen Yan clearly had ulterior motives and wanted to seize the Heavenly Son Martial Art.
“If that is truly the case, senior brother will not sit idly by and do nothing.”
With Lin Shenfeng’s words, the remaining four people also silently looked towards Chen Yan and the others, clearly, they were on the same side as Lin Shenfeng.
“You guys can’t stop me.” Chen Yan shook his head while letting out his aura.
He still looked a little tired from the great battle on the outside, but his true qi was still sufficient. The other two people supporting Chen Yan did the same, and the three of them combined their Qi, actually steadily overpowering the six people, including Lin Shenfeng Fengjiu.
“You guys actually still have some strength left.” Zeng Yue also looked at Chen Yan’s trio in disbelief.
The previous clash between the “Dragon Formation” and the “Spirit Slaughter Formation” had caused all the members of the academy to use their full strength to defeat the five brave soldiers of the army before they had regained their full strength. It was for this reason that Lin Shenfeng and Zeng Yue, in their desperation and powerlessness, had used the “Blue Blood Shining through the Heart of Dan” to fight for their lives.
But now, the way Chen Yan and the three of them were behaving, it was clear that they had held back in the previous battle, or they had left a lot of strength behind, otherwise, they would never have steadily overpowered the six of them.
“I have no shame in asking.” Facing Zeng Yue’s condemning gaze, Chen Yan said indifferently.
“A good heart has no shame,” Zeng Yue saw it, Lin Shenfeng naturally would not fail to see it, facing the three Chen Yan who had ulterior motives, he stood up straight and broke away from the support, “then, I should also have a heart that has no shame.”
“The blood of the blue shines through the heart.
This time, even if he wanted to withdraw it earlier, he could not. His seriously injured body was destined to come to an end when he performed the “Blood Shines on Dan Xin” again.
