Chapter 1382: Chapter 1386: No Choice
Lin Fei really couldn’t take this kind of blow anymore, and he spoke up, "Senior brother, you ca back just to hit
where it hurts, didn’t you? Your power is suppressed and you’re still that strong. If you weren’t suppressed, just how strong would you be? Could one sword pierce through Mount Xihemaiya?"
"Mount Xihemaiya?" Dugu Aotian was taken aback.
Lin Fei chuckled and said, "Mount Xihemaiya is the highest peak in Mo Country, impressive, right?"
Dugu Aotian put on a very helpless expression and said, "Mount Xihemaiya is the highest mountain? That’s really small. If you’ve seen the three immortal mountains of the Upper Realm, you’ll realize that Mount Xihemaiya is just a small dirt mound. The three immortal mountains of the Upper Realm, the abbot, Ying State, and Penglai—each one is at least tens of thousands of ters tall, and of course, the highest in the Upper Realm is Tianshan, at 99,999 ters! For a mountain like Xihemaiya, if I weren’t suppressed, I could chop three thousand ters off it with one sword!"
"Then why not add one more ter? Wouldn’t a hundred thousand ters sound better?" Lin Fei couldn’t help but ask. Does 99,999 ters really sound better?
Dugu Aotian looked speechless and said, "If you ever say that in the Upper Realm, you’ll be in big trouble. Saying sothing like that is blasphemy against Tianshan. If you were in Tianshan, soone might kill you with one sword stroke."
Lin Fei was speechless, shrugged, and said, "What you said is useless to . I don’t have any chance or qualification to access Four-dinsional Space, let alone think about going to the Upper Realm. There are so many perverts in the Upper Realm; I’d better just stay honestly in the Lower Realm..."
"Junior brother, that’s not entirely accurate. Didn’t my father include you in Four-dinsional Space? And through Four-dinsional Space, you returned to three-dinsional space, which allowed you to enter the world five hundred years ago, and in your original body," Dugu Aotian laughed as he said.
Lin Fei was startled, "You an the ancient mirror..."
Dugu Aotian nodded, Lin Fei was indeed quite clever, able to grasp the reasoning in one sentence. He explained, "Actually, this ancient mirror is the barrier between worlds. It connects the Upper Realm and the Lower Realm, and also the Abyss Rift, so it has many abilities, including dinsional travel. My father used this thod to let you reach the world five hundred years ago."
Hearing this, just as Lin Fei thought, everything had been arranged in advance. All of Lin Fei’s experiences were under Dugu Xiaoqi’s control, including traveling to five hundred years ago and today. Lin Fei even felt like he was just a chess piece!
"Junior brother, you surely feel like a chess piece, right? No wonder you’re being controlled, moving here and there at others’ whims. I hate that, but I have no choice. Like , I didn’t want to co to the Lower Realm, but I had to obey my father’s command. It’s about power. He’s stronger than , so I have to listen to him," Dugu Aotian seed to see through Lin Fei’s thoughts, and said.
Lin Fei glanced at Dugu Aotian and said, "It sounds like if you had enough power, you’d rebel against your father. If that were true, you’d probably et a grim end."
"What do you an by that?" Dugu Aotian asked.
"It’s simple. Since you’ve rebelled, in your father’s eyes, he’d control you, and would definitely kill you," Lin Fei said, though he also understood that even a tiger won’t eat its cubs; it wouldn’t go that far.
Dugu Aotian chuckled and said, "If you went to the Upper Realm, you’d know how renowned I am. I’m a once-in-a-millennium genius. I’ve only cultivated for a few hundred years, and I’m about to catch up with my father. So things are beyond his control. Power is what’s most important, and of course, power is supported by diligence and talent."
Lin Fei knew that without power, one must rely on diligence or talent to keep progressing and gaining strength. Dugu Aotian was both diligent and talented, and even in the Upper Realm, his achievents were brilliant and impressive.
"That’s still far away for ," Lin Fei said. In the three-dinsional space, he hadn’t reached a formidable level. He wasn’t even a match for Leng Daoqiu, let alone his second senior brother Liu Muqing, who could easily defeat Leng Daoqiu, so he was far behind!
Dugu Aotian shook his head and said, "You have great talent, and I also have a mission for you this ti..."
Lin Fei imdiately made a face of disdain and said, "What mission? I’ll say this in advance, if it’s too difficult, I don’t want to accept it."
Hearing Lin Fei’s words, Dugu Aotian sighed and said, "It’s indeed not easy, but it’s not as hard as you imagine."
"Co on, senior brother, stop talking. I don’t want to hear it. To you, not easy ans more difficult than climbing to heaven in my Lower Realm circumstances. Just find soone else. I need to go. The master is still waiting for . I’ll go back and tell him everything is resolved and everyone can return," Lin Fei said, wanting to slip away but was caught by Dugu Aotian.
"My father said that you have to accept this mission, whether you agree or not. And if you agree, I’ll give you the second half of the Demon Refinent Technique. If you refuse, you won’t get it, but the mission is still yours. No choice," Dugu Aotian put on a resigned look and said, "That’s the result of being weak, no choice but to bargain for rewards."
Lin Fei was truly speechless; he didn’t expect to encounter such a forceful situation. But Dugu Aotian was right; without power, there was no room to bargain. Dugu Aotian was already so powerful, and Dugu Xiaoqi was even more formidable. Right now, Lin Fei had no grounds to refuse because they could easily find soone else, and as for himself, perhaps...
"Alright, I agree. The second half of the Demon Refinent Technique is exactly what I need," Lin Fei said. Though he was speaking the truth, he really detested the feeling of being controlled and manipulated.
Dugu Aotian chuckled and said, "Actually, your choice is very wise. After all, with this identity, things will be easier for you in the future. Moreover, in the Lower Realm, with this identity, no one will dare to harm you. If anyone kills you, I will definitely wipe out their entire existence."
After saying this, a book suddenly appeared in Dugu Aotian’s hand, as if by magic, which left Lin Fei staring in amazent. He couldn’t help but ask, "How did you produce that? Is there magic in the Upper Realm too?"
