Chapter 580: Chapter 164: A diversionary split [2 in 1] Chapter 580: Chapter 164: A diversionary split [2 in 1] “Master Hongjun?”
Dong Canglan’s face was filled with an even deeper expression of confusion. He had never heard of him before.
Given his vast knowledge and experiences as the master of the Heavenly Sword Cloud Palace, he knew almost everyone who had a bit of fa in the Anping Continent, even those from tens or hundreds of thousands of years ago…
It was indeed rare for him not to know soone. However, he was genuinely ignorant about this Master Hongjun whom Feng Yin had ntioned and didn’t know anything about him.
“I really don’t know… Did your master do sothing special?”
“Not that I know of…”
Feng Yin replied: “However, my master once had a Taoist motto…”
“What motto?”
Dong Canglan felt as if he had found a clue.
“Residing high above the nine clouds, the ditation mat reveals the truth of Tao; beyond the universe void, I am the respected master teacher; Pangu gives birth to Tai Chi, the doctrine of Yin and Yang and the Four Images; one way passes to the three friends, the two teachings illustrate separation; the leader of all mystery schools, one breath transforms into Hongjun.”
That is what Feng Yin recited.
Dong Canglan felt a surge of admiration as he listened to the profound verses.
Even though he did not understand its aning, it sounded very formidable, clearly a work of a transcendent master. He felt instinctively respectful towards it.
Just think about it, residing high above the nine clouds, is this the achievent of a common person?
The respected master teacher… who could claim this title?
As for the leader of all mystery schools…
The entire motto, the aura of each verse was so deep and mysterious, aloof, and elusive.
After contemplative silence, Dong Canglan finally said: “Your master is truly a rare and extraordinary master.”
Feng Yin responded: “Well… In our area, indeed no one could match him. At least, I never saw my master losing.”
Dong Canglan put on an air of wealth, power, and amiability from the very beginning. Although he seed very amiable, it was a kind of condescension of a superior.
Feng Yin always had a subtle feeling of being ‘suppressed from the top’. He had difficulty adapting to this feeling of being ‘dominated by authority’.
He naturally didn’t know that this was his prospective father-in-law sizing up his son-in-law. Because with Dong Xiaoyan, nothing was set in stone…
Feng Yin, discontent in his heart, simply brought up Master Hongjun to show off upon being asked by Dong Canglan.
Humph, this motto alone could scare them to death.
Clearly, his plan worked. The effect was evident as Dong Canglan and Lady Dong were shocked.
The couple could not have imagined, that their investigation into their daughter’s suitor would reveal such a trendous figure.
They did not even understand what he was saying.
“You just said that you can’t go back now?”
“Yes, I can’t.”
“When can you return? Or under what conditions can you return?”
“My master said, when I can transcend the Three Realms and be independent from the Five Elents, I can return.”
Dong Canglan’s lips twitched again, what… the hell was he talking about?
Transcending the Three Realms and independent from the Five Elents…
Was this human language?
Throughout the entire Anping continent, throughout all ages, when was there ever anyone who achieved such a state!
Not even one!
“Then it may be difficult for you to return…” Lady Dong who was also well aware of the difficulties, sighed.
“It is indeed a bit difficult.” Feng Yin admitted.
“Your dical skills and your ability to ta beasts… were they taught by your master?”
“They are just minor skills of no record due to my unique physique.”
Feng Yin humbly responded.
The couple exchanged glances, feeling as though their punch had hit cotton.
Ling Yunduan was very humble in his speech, his attitude was very respectful, he knew when to advance or retreat, his manners were impeccable. Clearly, he had received strict education.
Furthermore, it didn’t sound like he was spouting nonsense.
They could clearly sense this with their wisdom and acuity.
Nonsense didn’t have such a sense of reality.
No doubt, he impressed them with this maneuver!
But subsequent questions also arose from this.
If it’s not a lie, then where exactly is this Third Star?
Who exactly is this Master Hongjun?
Why is such a remarkable person completely unknown?!
“Young Master Ling, may I ask how old you are this year?”
“This year…”
Feng Yin thought for a mont, then said: “I should be… twenty?”
“Young Master Ling, you’re so accomplished under your master’s teachings, how can you be uncertain of your own age?”
The tone of Lady Dong was full of surprise.
“Madam, when my master found , I was probably…four or five-years old? So far, it should be around fifteen or below sixteen years, roughly around twenty. It’s difficult to determine.”
Feng Yin explained.
These words…
Lady Dong initially wanted to ask more about his family background, such as what do your parents do, what’s your family’s financial situation etc…
However, all those questions were pushed back into her stomach by Feng Yin’s explanation. Instead, she felt a heartache for the boy.
So he’s an orphan…
He’s been without his parents since he was a child, how pitiful!
“Let’s have so tea, have so tea.”
Dong Canglan also felt like he had a mouthful of words that he couldn’t spit out. To avoid the awkward silence, he tried to shift the focus on drinking tea.
As he consud the second cup, the strange spiritual energy rushed through his body, causing another wave of perspiration, making his body feeling refreshing.
Feng Yin felt it too, the tea was undeniably good. The sweat it caused was clearly discharging impurities from his body.
