Refuse to trample on the pride of heaven

Most of these casual cultivators also climbed up from the status of mortals. They have suffered from being targeted by cultivators, but after becoming cultivators, most of them became the people they once feared.

This seems to have become a vicious cycle. They, who are of mortal origin, seem unwilling to admit their mortal origins. Instead, they try their best to package themselves as superior and inviolable monks.

When they see mortals who are the same as themselves in the past, they may think of their former selves, but most people do not feel more compassion. Instead, they help the evil and join the ranks of monks who target mortals, as if this could erase their past identities and experiences.

Because he had been caught in the rain, he tore umbrellas for others, picked up the bowl to eat, and put the bowl down to curse.

For such people, it would be more satisfying to destroy their cultivation and make them become people they look down upon rather than kill them.

"You should be thankful that I saved your lives." Although your lives are saved, you may feel that life is worse than death in the future. - Lu Wensheng thought calmly.

In the end, the big fish eat the small fish - they destroyed the town, and because of the disparity in status, the residents of the town had to beg them. Similarly, Lu Wensheng destroyed their cultivation, so these two people had to be respectful even if they felt resentment in their hearts.

It's a similar thing. It seems that I wouldn't be able to accept it if it happened to me. After all, I won't feel the pain unless the knife falls on my body.

The two monks gnashed their teeth and looked at Lu Wensheng with resentment, but they did not dare to say anything. The other party looked down at them condescendingly.

Lu Wensheng put away his sword. Although there was a faint smile on the corner of his lips, it was as dull as water, making his whole face look indifferent, stern and ruthless. He looked at them indifferently, with a hint of coldness and indifference.

"Are you a cultivator who practices the Way of Ruthlessness?!" The two men looked at Lu Wensheng intently and suddenly said in unison.

Lu Wensheng chuckled and did not deny it.

They should have thought of it earlier! These guys who practiced the ruthless way smelled of hypocrisy. The only one who could stand up for mortals, except for the ruthless lunatic who shouted "Heaven and earth are not benevolent, and all things are straw dogs", who else could put the status of mortals and cultivators together?

The two men regretted their decision immediately. If they had known, they would have dealt with it at that time. It was better to make amends than to have their cultivation destroyed now. Now they could only leave in disgrace - their cultivation had dissipated, their dantian could no longer hold spiritual energy, and now they were only slightly healthier than ordinary people, and their lifespans were longer. If they didn't leave now, they might be retaliated by those residents later.

Gu Jinzhi looked even more shocked than those two guys: "Are you from the Wuqing Dao?!"

Lu Wensheng raised his eyebrows: "Why? Don't I look like one?"

Gu Jinzhi: "In my impression, the ruthless monks I met seemed to have no desires or requests, just like monks, or they were inhumane."

Ning Rongrong also interjected: "I thought it was like Fellow Daoist Ji Yanli."

"Maybe it's a different understanding of the ruthless way. Nothing is absolute. Who says that the ruthless practitioners have to look cold and heartless?" He is a comedian at heart and he can't be cold anyway.

Being ruthless means not being bewitched by greed, anger, and ignorance, and maintaining a state without distractions and delusions, so as to achieve clarity and the ability to take charge of the overall situation. It also means not being driven by emotions, being able to make rational choices, and not being swayed by fear or greed.

According to his own understanding, Lu Wensheng actually felt that he was not suitable for this path. He could not be free of all distractions. He looked rational at ordinary times, but sometimes he could be impulsive. He also had things he was afraid of and had his own selfish desires.

I don’t know why the Supreme Elder said he was suitable at the beginning - he still has a mission. Although he doesn’t just revolve around Liu Jiqian, he is ultimately serving him.

However, Lu Wensheng is not a person who likes to be entangled. If he can't figure it out, he will just stop thinking about it.

The town has a large population, and most of the buildings have been destroyed. Lu Wensheng and his companions don't know how to repair them, so they can only use their identities to inform the Mortal Dynasty - a notification from a cultivator is more effective than reporting to higher levels, which may not be accepted by these people.

This is a very realistic and unavoidable thing, but the better outcome is that the court will pay more attention to it and these people will be properly arranged.

Because of Wu Feipeng's look, Lu Wensheng chatted with the other party for a few words. When he learned that the child was alone now, he didn't know what to say and felt a little sad.

Wu Feipeng had made arrangements for himself: "I will bury my grandfather first, then go to the Children's Affairs Bureau, and when I grow up, I will go out to make money..."

Gu Jinzhi was more sentimental. When Wu Feipeng told him that his grandfather, who he had depended on for everything, had passed away and he was now alone, his eyes were already filled with tears, holding in his hand the handkerchief that Ning Rongrong had kindly offered him.

"Wow, little brother, you're so strong... In comparison, you're much stronger than me who still relies on my dad for food!"

Ning Rongrong glanced at Gu Jinzhi with a helpless look.

Wu Feipeng is a likable child, and the four of them are willing to give him a happy birthday. Gu Jinzhi wants to give Lingshi a child to make life easier for him, but is stopped by Liu Jiqian.

"Spiritual stones are more valuable in the mortal world. If I give them to Fei Peng, he might be targeted. This is no different from a child carrying gold through a busy market."

Lu Wensheng also said: "If you want to use the money on Fei Peng, you might as well turn it into something useful."

Wu Feipeng was originally going to go to the Charity Bureau, but the owner of the drugstore expressed his willingness to take him in - he had only one daughter who was already married, so it would be nice to have a child to keep him company.

The owner of the drug store was already familiar with Wu Feipeng, and was willing to step forward at the critical moment, which showed that he was a good person. Gu Jinzhi insisted on giving a reward, so he exchanged the spirit stones for money for the two of them, and Liu Jiqian also provided a small item for communication.

"When you can write, you can use this to contact us. We will be able to see what you write on it."

Lu Wensheng glanced at him and felt that the other person was really thoughtful.

Ning Rongrong squatted and chatted with Wu Feipeng: "What do you want to do when you grow up?"

"If possible, I would like to be a cultivator like Brother Lu!" Wu Feipeng hesitated for a moment, as if he was chewing on the word "Brother Lu". After he said it, his eyebrows were curved and he looked at Lu Wensheng with bright eyes.

"Like me?" Lu Wensheng was stunned for a moment, and when he came to his senses he actually felt a little embarrassed - it was the first time that he was stared at like an idol, and because of the child's admiration for him, he felt a little at a loss.

"Why?" Is there anything worth learning from him?

Wu Feipeng shook his head and refused to say anything, as if he was hiding a secret that only he knew.
