Unexpected: Lei Ruoxian Really Exists

Lin Su smiled. "Of course I'm glad I was born in Great Cang! But the Great Confucians who voiced such views in this kingdom should also be glad that they themselves are Great Confucians."

"What do you mean?"

Lin Su said, "They are Great Confucians. They are well-fed and warmly clothed, so they have the qualifications to stand high above and tell the common people how they ought to live!

What if cold winds and freezing rain were snuffing out the last spark of life in their loved ones? Would they still stand there talking without feeling the ache in their backs?"

Feng Wu slapped a hand to her forehead. "From now on, I'm not discussing the Dao with you!"

She had directly admitted defeat.

Liu Tianyin smiled softly. "Let's go. Into the city!"

Yet the moment they emerged from the Nine Sound Cauldron, he sensed someone following them?

Could it be those bald heads from Thousand Buddha Temple?

Beyond the city, the Cang Mountains
