The Spirit World

Chapter 600 End of Dark Hour
There is no way we can do this well...

No, to be precise, we were definitely not well prepared. None of us expected that we would have so many differences...

Even Brother Ziyu, who always followed Brother Ning Kang's opinions, showed a terrible opposition to Ning Kang's actions.

I think even Brother Zi Yu didn't expect that, from the royal capital to [Yanque Mountain] which is almost on the border, we have no way to solve our internal problems - if Brother Ning Kang doesn't make a statement on this matter.

Although from my point of view, none of them are too wrong.

But there is no way...

[Yanque Mountain Bailingzhai]

"I don't agree!" Ning Ziyu knocked the table heavily. He rarely gets angry, but recently, he has been very angry.

"Zi Yu, give them a chance..." Ning Kang was calm, just like Wang Ziyu before, but now, his calmness seemed like indifference...

The indifference makes people feel cold.

I looked at Brother Zi Yu trembling... He slammed his hands hard on the table. I didn't believe that Brother Zi Yu's hands would hurt from such a slap, but his trembling seemed like an unavoidable movement, which made me feel extremely distressed.

"Absolutely not!" Wang Ziyu yelled, "How many times have I told you! It's not possible! We can't let them go up the mountain. It's not because we are so powerful that we can subdue them, but because of their own reasons, we should not allow them to go up the mountain to practice!"

They refer to a group of "bandits" living at the foot of the mountain.

Actually, it’s not accurate to call them bandits... How should I put it? They are also refugees now... Wandering around, homeless, some are even starving and struggling to survive.

But it is no exaggeration to say that they are still bandits... They have done bad things in the past. To be more clear, they used to be bandits. Not to mention that they did bad things, such as burning, killing and looting, but what they did should also be severely punished by the Justice Department.

We could have just ignored them, but they had already been punished by the Justice Department. That was the problem. Could someone who had been punished by the Justice Department go to Yanque Mountain and practice in Bailingzhai?

"Zi Yu, they have already been punished by the Justice Department. You should give them a chance. They should have a chance..."

Ning Kang's calmness and indifference... seemed like a knife scraping Wang Ziyu's heart.

"I told you..." Wang Ziyu began to speak earnestly.

My brother Ziyu...

"The secret methods we teach others to practice cultivation are not for everyone, and definitely not for everyone to go up the mountain to practice cultivation. I tell you, even if they go up the mountain, I will never teach them any of the Wang family's secret methods!"

"Give them a chance to start over... They have already been... punished..." Ning Kang felt that he was not wrong, because giving a person who has been punished a chance to start over should be an idea worth promoting.

"But we shouldn't forgive them for what they did in the past. Before they practiced the secret technique, they wanted to do bad things and hurt others. Now that they have learned the secret technique, not to mention that they will really kill people and commit arson and commit all kinds of evil, they must have enough confidence to do so! I can teach any civilian the secret technique of my Wang family, but I can't teach it to those who have made mistakes and been punished by the Law Enforcement Department! The secret technique of our Wang family!"

Wang Ziyu stared at Ning Kang, and I could see...anger in his eyes...Brother Ziyu was angry at Brother Ning Kang.

It's like I'm giving you earnest advice, but he just won't listen.

"You also know that they have been punished by the Justice Department. They have spent a long time in prison. Their attitudes have clearly shown their repentance. I think giving them a chance to reform is not as bad as you think..." Ning Kang's face became dark in the darkness. I could no longer see his face clearly...

He should be more excited. If he had a quarrel with Brother Ziyu, I don't think Brother Ziyu would be so angry. The main reason is that Brother Ziyu already felt that Brother Ningkang had made his decision, which was to let them go up the mountain to practice.

“Why should we forgive them? Why should we forgive those who have been punished by the Justice Department? Do you know what they have done? If they learn the secrets of our five families, they will definitely break the law again because of their power! Even if any one of them breaks the law again and is punished by the Justice Department, and we are stigmatized, I cannot agree!” Wang Ziyu’s trembling became more and more serious, and he began to cough violently, while Ning Kang buried his face in the darkness. I know his eyes were always on Brother Ziyu, but he didn’t say anything... words to comfort Brother Ziyu...

My brother Ningkang, my brother Ziyu... they are all broken up in this way... I want to say something for them... but... I am still silent... I want to reach out and pat brother Ziyu but I find that brother Ziyu wants to speak more and his cough is getting worse.

"I will never maliciously speculate on the thoughts of any good person! But I will never let go of maliciously speculating on the thoughts of any evil person. If they can be forgiven, why would they be punished by the Justice Department?! Why can't you figure it out? Ning Kang!" Wang Ziyu gritted his teeth at every word: "How can you forgive those evil people who have hurt others for the families and friends of the victims? Do you really think you are a saint? We are not saints! Ning Kang! We can hate! We can accuse anyone of being a bad person! Even! Get rid of harm for the people! Uphold justice!"

"They have already repented, we really can't give them a chance..." Ning Kang said coldly, so calm that I couldn't understand...

Wang Ziyu interrupted him.

"I cannot help the evildoers! The secrets of the five major families must not fall into the hands of evildoers, and I absolutely do not agree to teach any secrets to any evildoer, even former evildoers!"

"Can you really not forgive anyone who makes a mistake?"

"Is being punished by the Justice Department and locked up in the big boss's room just for making a mistake? You are not listening to me at all! Think about those innocent people who were hurt or even killed by the evil people! Ning Kang! You founded Bailingzhai! You came to such a small place, gave up the life in the Ning family, and suffered here! All for the purpose of teaching your own family's skills to the evil people who had committed crimes! What did you tell me at the beginning?" Wang Ziyu almost shouted.

cry.

He was crying...

I grabbed Brother Ziyu's hand... and told him not to tremble...

My heartache... is just this... I can no longer hug him in front of everyone in a serious manner...

I really want to hug him...

"You said that we should teach the innocent people the secrets of our five families, so that all kind-hearted people can help more innocent people like us, so that those with kind hearts can have the strength to face evil, so that they can take the world as their own responsibility, so that they don't have to sacrifice for no reason in the tragic bloodline war, so that they can rise up and resist! So that they will no longer be slaughtered!"

"This does not conflict with accepting these refugees... If they have malicious intentions, how would you know... Yes, I am not a saint, I cannot identify any kind person... Is this my fault?"

"Ning Kang...you're not really talking to me at all..."

"We should not allow anyone with good intentions to ..."

"Ning Kang..."

"We should not give up on anyone with good intentions... nor should we just treat others as bad people..."

"Ning Kang..."

"Give them a chance. It's not a very difficult decision to make... We need to believe that more people have good intentions and we can... give them a chance to be good people..."

Ning Kang's cold aura... seems to be so disgusting to me... but giving a former bad guy a chance to become a good guy... wouldn't it be a good thing...

I don’t know…but my brother Ziyu definitely disagrees…

"Then go tell the Justice Department! Let them decide who is the good guy and who is the bad guy! Ning Kang! I! Don't! Agree!!"

The cold here... I really can't stand it...

I'm thinking……

The reason why my brother Zi Yu was angry was not just because he felt that a person, or even a group of people who had been evil and punished by the Law Enforcement Department should not practice cultivation, or in other words, Bai Lingzhai should not teach them such secret methods of cultivation.

If a person has done things that hurt others without the power of the secret technique, then if he does evil again with the secret technique, it would be like rubbing the dignity of the teachers who taught him the secret technique on the ground.

Even their reputations will become notorious in this world...

I don’t understand… and I don’t want to understand… I just want to take Brother Ziyu away… leave this cold Bailingzhai…

"We..." Ning Kang's terrifying eyes were like a nail on Wang Ziyu's eyes.

"Don't say any more..." Wang Ziyu seemed unwilling to listen any more... He stood up, lowered his head, and his tears seemed to fall on the table. In fact, it was just a tear... Was it?
He wiped his eyes.

"I... left Bailingzhai..."

"Zi Yu... I'm just discussing this matter with you... you..."

Ningkang is still calm. Still ruthless...

He could choose not to rush over to comfort Brother Ziyu, but his current coldness really made me...unacceptable...

"Ning Kang and I are no longer friends..."

Ziyu's hands finally stopped shaking... He glanced at me...

I sat next to him, and I could only help my brother Ziyu with my eyes... He gave me a look... It was like that kind of empty... hopeless...

He knew that Ningkang would still accept those refugees...

They argued more than once about whether they should accept refugees and people who had committed crimes to practice in the mountains...

Time and again... their quarrels started as small fights, and turned into such a big shouting match... it was like... tearing everyone's hearts apart again and again...

"what?"

Ning Kang felt that he had heard wrongly...

"I will go to Huadu..." Wang Ziyu slowly...calmed down...

He stood up calmly...

"no……"

"I've had enough...you always get your own way..."

Never listen to what I say...

"We can discuss it, there are more solutions..." Ning Kang is still sitting... I don't want to look at his face...

"Then what should I do... Next time, we will definitely quarrel again... I don't want to quarrel with you again... Brother Yu'er..." Wang Ziyu's voice also began to calm down...

They are still arguing...

They are still there! Looking at each other indifferently...

His blue clothes had been washed a little white. The hard life here didn't defeat us at all... What defeated us was... the differences...

Is this... indifference?
In fact, I couldn't bear to hear what they were arguing about next...

Different road non-phase plan……

I thought we could really do this well...

Actually, I don't have such a serious objection... Give them a chance to be human... But I also think that it's okay to give them a chance, but they can't be exposed to such a core power...

The secrets of our five major families are not only powerful, but the difference between ordinary people who have learned the secrets and those who have not is as great as heaven and earth...

Those who possess the secret technique can control those who do not have it at will - relying solely on strength, it is absolutely effortless to destroy...

The five major families possess the secret techniques, and they can restrain each other... but ordinary people... where are the constraints... If any bad guy gets control of our secret techniques... what should we do?

Brother Ning Kang has never thought about this problem. Perhaps the emperor has thought about this problem, so he has never done anything like creating a fairy mountain to teach others how to practice...?
We established Bailingzhai in secret... Although His Majesty did not explicitly forbid it, I can imagine how shocked His Majesty would be when our reputation spread and His Majesty knew about it...

I have met His Majesty... and I have also met all the people from the five major families...

Maybe... I can't stop Brother Ziyu from escaping...

I also need to get away... Without Brother Ziyu, I shouldn't be here anymore...

Perhaps, I have done a good job in helping my two brothers... although I can't stop them from quarreling...

I am a woman after all...

Ningkang... Ningkang... Ningkang...

Wang Ziyu, Wang Ziyu, Wang Ziyu...

Finally, we left Bailingzhai in Yanque Mountain together. On the carriage to Huadu, I saw Brother Ziyu's face. He was also looking at everything outside the window calmly...

The marching people from the border who had lost their homes in the war, their mutilated bodies and the white and red gauze, the sounds of their painful wails, that kind of cruel, trembling wail, were like a knife stabbing into my heart and my brother Ziyu's heart.

Maybe we should stay in Bailingzhai...

I think so...

Maybe Ning Kang is right... If we can teach the secrets of the five major families to anyone with good intentions, and let them help... we can help more people...

But... we really shouldn't teach our secrets to anyone...

Because this is not playing house...

Someone from the five major families has sanctioned...

But they didn’t…

If any evil person learns the secrets of the five great families... the ones who will suffer... will definitely be... many more...

More...more...innocent people...

That goes against our ideals...

I think……

Ningkang, brother...you are right...

I think……

Brother Ziyu...is not wrong either...

Could it be that I was wrong?
I failed to understand their mistakes...

So, I was wrong...
