Chapter 1046: To Enter Tuo Shi, One Must Forget the Worldly
But just because of a casual remark by Su Changfeng, Zhou Haiwen beca the manager of Bin County directly, which might be the pinnacle of his career in decades.
At this mont, Sun Wan could finally see clearly just how powerful Su Changfeng really was, and how fortunate Shen Hanxue, whom she used to dislike, was to be his wife.
All of this, for her, was a luxury.
In the past, she always compared herself with Shen Hanxue, believing that she wasn’t inferior in looks or family, but now, she wondered what she could possibly compare with Shen Hanxue.
The matters in Bin County were almost settled, and Su Changfeng was preparing to return to Jiang City.
Although Su Changfeng wanted to stay a little longer, hoping to find sothing else to do, after handling the affairs of Bin County, there truly was nothing else left.
At this very mont, on the top of a certain mountain, Elder Wu and Yang Junming stood at the summit, gazing at the distant scenery.
Despite the north wind fiercely blowing towards them, Elder Wu and Yang Junming were dressed thinly and didn’t feel cold.
"Do you think it’s ti for him to join Tianqi under this opportunity?" Elder Wu asked Yang Junming thoughtfully.
In fact, Elder Wu had been pondering this matter for so ti because he knew Su Changfeng absolutely couldn’t let go of Shen Hanxue and Sunian.
But their existence would surely affect Su Changfeng, even causing him concerns.
However, anyone ready to join Tuo Shi must let go of worldly attachnts. It’s an unchanging rule of Tuo Shi, but Elder Wu understood in his heart that he couldn’t force Su Changfeng to abide by it, otherwise, with his personality, he certainly wouldn’t be willing to join Tuo Shi.
"Elder Wu, to enter Tuo Shi, one must forget the world, that’s the rule of Tuo Shi, but Su Changfeng definitely can’t do that," Yang Junming said. Since the last encounter, he knew Su Changfeng’s character well; Su Changfeng valued his responsibilities and had family to protect, he wouldn’t disregard his life for Tuo Shi.
"How could I not know? He has a wife and children to protect. If anything happens to him, his family’s life would be very tough as well," Elder Wu said helplessly. If it were soone else, Elder Wu might take so actions behind the scenes, perhaps even let Tuo Shi intervene to solve these troubles, but it’s different with Su Changfeng. Any ans used against him would definitely backfire.
If he killed Shen Hanxue and Sunian and Su Changfeng found out, let alone saving Tuo Shi, it might bring a huge disaster to Tuo Shi.
Even though Tuo Shi had many talented individuals, in decades only Guan Shan stood out significantly, but Guan Shan’s ability was limited, he cannot bear the burden of Tuo Shi, only Su Changfeng had such a qualification, but soone so exceptional could be a friend or an enemy.
"Elder Wu, I have a doubt. During the last battle, I always felt his power was different from others," Yang Junming hesitated to say.
"Though there are many extraordinary people in Tuo Shi with differences in their strengths, it’s not surprising. Regardless of the difference, his power is the strongest, and I believe once he joins Tuo Shi, it won’t take three years for Tuo Shi to have a new outlook, and as for the concern we always had, perhaps only he could achieve it!" Elder Wu said with determination.
At the ntion of this, Yang Junming beca exceptionally serious. He was once a top expert in Tuo Shi and was fully aware of the purpose of Tuo Shi’s formation. Generations of Tuo Shi lived for this original cause, if Tuo Shi couldn’t save it, humanity might eventually be extinct.
Yang Junming said, "The stronger the combat power, the harder it is to control."
Hearing this, Elder Wu slightly frowned and said, "The reason you’re saying this might be because you don’t know his past. It was precisely those hardships that forged his current strong character; he doesn’t want to be controlled by others, and I have no intention of controlling him. He is like a rubber band. If you insist on pulling it, it might snap."
"Does Tuo Shi have to change the entrance rule because of him? We can’t make it seem like we are begging him to co, right? What if he becos too arrogant and doesn’t respect Tuo Shi?" Yang Junming said.
"Rules are dead, but people are alive. We can’t abandon Su Changfeng because of this," Elder Wu said blandly.
Yang Junming was shocked; the rule of joining Tianqi had been established since the founding of Tuo Shi and it hadn’t changed for hundreds of years. Yet, Elder Wu now wanted to make a new rule for Su Changfeng, showing just how much Elder Wu valued Su Changfeng.
But even though Elder Wu presided over the Shangyun Pavilion, Tuo Shi wasn’t just a single decision-making body of Shangyun Pavilion. Even if the five elders wanted to change the rule for Su Changfeng, it would require approval from Lingxiao Pavilion for implentation, but getting Lingxiao Pavilion’s consent was as hard as reaching the sky.
Although outwardly there had been no conflict between Shangyun Pavilion and Lingxiao Pavilion for a century and they appeared harmonious, they were secretly at odds.
Take Guan Shan, for example. His title was given by Shangyun Pavilion, but Lingxiao Pavilion never recognized it, believing Guan Shan’s capability was unworthy.
"Elder Wu, I believe you have your reasons for deciding this, but I worry Lingxiao Pavilion might not agree," Yang Junming said.
Yang Junming knew that Elder Wu must have a plan since he brought this up, but he couldn’t figure out how Elder Wu would get Lingxiao Pavilion to agree.
Elder Wu smiled aningfully and said, "In Tuo Shi, strength is respected. If you are strong enough, who would dare disobey? If Lingxiao Pavilion sees the potential hidden within Su Changfeng, do you think they would still disagree?"
But potential is indeed mysterious, often depending on one’s subjective intentions. Simply saying soone has potential won’t convince the people from Lingxiao Pavilion unless they see it with their own eyes.
"In a little while, it will be the beginning of spring, which is Tuo Shi’s most grand occasion. You weren’t in Tuo Shi for decades, but I assu you rember the activities during the beginning of autumn in Tuo Shi?" Elder Wu suddenly asked Yang Junming.
"I will never forget that, at the beginning of spring, Tuo Shi holds its annual martial arts competition, where all mbers of Tuo Shi compete. It’s a day everyone in Tuo Shi looks forward to," Yang Junming said. Though he had left Tianqi many years ago, he never forgot such an important event.
