Good Fortune for Mother, Accumulating Merit (Please give some recommendation votes, thank you, great readers)
Xu Yanli smiled from the side and said, "This is a child I rescued in the Star Dou Great Forest. His Martial Soul appears to be eyes, but in reality, it is both brain and eyes. In a sense, it should belong to the top-tier Body Martial Soul, right?"
"It counts, it counts, absolutely," Du Busi's eyes lit up as he stepped down from his high seat.
"This child is my disciple. I don't suggest he take on another teacher, what do you think?" Xu Yanli said with a light chuckle. "However, it is a pity that because of his poor childhood and a Martial Soul mutation, his Innate Soul Power is only level one."
"Bah, we of the Body Sect don't care about that. Little friend, are you truly willing to share this disciple with me?" Du Busi asked with a hint of urgency in his tone.
"Of course I don't mind, but this child also needs to stay by my side to study; after all, knowledge of Soul Guidance Devices is also very important," Xu Yanli said calmly.
"But at the very least, you must give me six months out of every year, right?" Du Busi insisted.
Xu Yanli looked at Huo Yuhao and asked, "Are you willing to stay here? Your Martial Soul will be able to be developed to the greatest extent..."
Huo Yuhao clutched the corner of his clothes. Seeing Xu Yanli's encouraging gaze, he nodded slowly and said, "Very well, I will take you as my master."
Du Busi laughed excitedly, using his thick palm to gently pat Huo Yuhao on the shoulder twice, saying, "Good disciple, from today on, you are my personal disciple."
After saying this, he shifted his gaze to Xu Yanli: "I acknowledge you as an ally as well. For the sake of your mother, kid, don't disgrace her."
"You knew my mother too?" Xu Yanli scratched his head in confusion. If his mother was so famous, why had no one in the original story ever mentioned her?
"Sigh, what a pity. She was once the most beautiful woman in the world. Back then, many heroes in our Body Sect were infatuated with her," Du Busi sighed, yet he still did not tell him anything about his mother's deeds.
As dusk approached, Xu Yanli left the Body Sect alone—or rather, not alone, as Long Xiaoyao suddenly appeared by his side.
"Do you truly possess the potential to become a god?" Long Xiaoyao asked in a low voice.
Xu Yanli smiled without speaking, instead renting a carriage nearby and sitting inside to close his eyes and rest.
Seeing that he did not speak, Long Xiaoyao did not ask again, but sat silently to the side.
At this moment, Electrolux's voice echoed in his mind: "Kid, come and learn today's lesson."
Xu Yanli let out a sigh of relief in his heart, shook his head helplessly, and slowly entered his Sea of Consciousness.
Xu Yanli looked at the teacher before him and cupped his hands in a salute.
"You've arrived. I must say, the move you played today was quite beautiful and very sincere," Electrolux said with a smile.
Xu Yanli said with some helplessness, "Why do I feel like I am a bit..."
"A bit what?" Electrolux asked with some surprise.
"Leaving a surplus of blessings, leaving a surplus of blessings; suddenly meeting a benefactor, fortunate for the mother, fortunate for the mother, having accumulated hidden merits," Xu Yanli said with a smile, recalling the verdict on Qiao Jie'er he had read in Dream of the Red Chamber years ago.
Electrolux did not speak, and it was only after a long while that he asked, "Are you not afraid that once Du Busi's hidden injuries are healed, he will detain Huo Yuhao and turn his back on you?"
Xu Yanli paused, then smiled and said, "Teacher, Du Busi is, in a sense, a smart man, and smart men generally do not do such stupid things."
"Besides, it is not as if I cannot leave some countermeasures in place," Xu Yanli chuckled.
"You kid..." Electrolux shook his head helplessly.
Xu Yanli was silent for a moment, looked at Electrolux, and then cupped his hands, saying, "Teacher, I will come to study again tonight. Let me rest my brain for now."
"Go then. By the way, those few lines you just said, is there more?" Electrolux waved his hand.
Xu Yanli paused and said with a smile, "Of course there is. The rest goes: Exhorting one to live, to help the poor and the distressed; do not be like those cruel uncles and treacherous brothers of mine who love money and forget their own flesh and blood! It is precisely the addition and subtraction of fate, with the heavens above."
After Xu Yanli finished speaking, he suddenly felt that this...
Could it also be said to be his own life?
Xu Yanli paused, then woke up from his body and shifted his gaze outside to the scenery flashing by.
There, the lights were bright—that was the warmth of the human world.
Xu Yanli looked at the scene outside and let out a sigh. He seemed to have changed a lot from his past life, yet it also seemed he hadn't changed at all.
In fact, for a moment, he felt so tired. Sometimes he felt that being an ordinary person would be enough; there was no need to fight so hard for a future.
To be a salted fish, occasionally flipping over...
But if he did that, then Xu Tianran, who had been good to him since childhood, would not be able to escape his fated death, and he himself might be killed by Tang San in a dozen years, or trained like a dog.
But as a transmigrator, as a transmigrator with the blood of the Chinese dragon flowing through his veins, he would never allow himself to live on his knees.
Tang San...
If he had no chance, perhaps he would truly lose his spirit and do nothing. But as it happened, he now had the capital to resist. Even if it required accumulation, now that he had the opportunity, how could he not fight with all his might?
In fact, with his talent, he only needed to cultivate properly to ascend to a dual godhood; it was not impossible to strike Tang San down.
But...
He had seen the chaos of this world in the original story. Although there were times he treated everyone as paper characters, when he saw certain tragedies, he would subconsciously feel sad and heartbroken.
There was also a trace of irony and resentment toward this world; he wanted to change it.
In his past life, when he saw injustice, he had no ability to help, but now that he had the power, why not fulfill his own ideas?
Moreover, this was also beneficial to him; it could condense the power of faith faster, allowing his Martial Soul to cultivate more quickly—killing two birds with one stone, why not do it?
And if he could unify the Douluo Continent, it would deal a severe blow to Tang San's faith, perhaps making his Sea God position weaker.
Long Xiaoyao watched Xu Yanli from the side, remaining silent, but he could feel that the person before him seemed to have relaxed a little.
Xu Yanli's gaze slowly turned to Long Xiaoyao, and he suddenly thought of his mother.
He actually didn't have much of an impression of his mother.
It wasn't the first time that people who saw him had mentioned her, and he also wanted to know what kind of peerless beauty his mother was, and why everyone who saw him was reminded of her.
Why did it seem that everyone was lenient toward him because of his mother?
