Fighting Against the Odds: I Am the Right Path

"Instead of that, you should also help me ask your senior sister why she stabbed me in the first place."

Senior sister?

Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then turned to look at Han Feng, who was also kneeling in front of Yao Chen. His cold eyes revealed his determination to die bravely.

Oh. Yes, in terms of status, Han Feng is indeed my senior sister.

"Look at your sister, she has the same stubborn personality as you." Yao Chen stroked her face gently, his eyes full of helplessness, "We already know that she betrayed us for other reasons, but she just doesn't want to tell us the reasons, and even said that she is willing to die. It's ridiculous..."

Ever since being betrayed by Han Feng, Yao Chen's suspicion of Han Feng has always been greater than her hatred for him. Rather than seeking revenge on Han Feng, she wanted to know why Han Feng betrayed her in the first place.

And now, he has confirmed that Han Feng betrayed him for his own sake. It sounds a bit awkward, but that is the fact. He even went so far as to bribe the Soul Palace guardians.

Yao Chen was both happy and worried about this. He was happy that Han Feng did not really betray him, but he was worried that this girl was unwilling to explain the reason.

Yao Chen really couldn't understand why this girl was still hiding things now that all the troubles were gone?

After hearing Yao Chen's words, Xiao Yan was stunned for a moment, then looked at Han Feng with a complicated look in his eyes.

How can I put it? I had been disgusted with her not long ago. Even after she told me what happened in the past, this disgust turned into hatred. It was all because she betrayed Yao Chen.

However, the series of things Han Feng did today have silently demonstrated that there were indeed deeper reasons why she betrayed Yao Chen, and it was not as simple as it seemed on the surface.

But why are you unwilling to say it clearly?

Xiao Yan looked at Han Feng quietly, and called out softly after a long time.

"Sister."

As soon as Xiao Yan opened his mouth, he was interrupted by Han Feng's cold voice.

"I colluded with outsiders to betray my teacher. As a disciple, this is unacceptable. I am no longer qualified to be called Yao Chen's disciple." Han Feng said calmly, word by word, "I cannot bear to be called Senior Sister."

After saying that, Han Feng looked at Yao Chen again.

"No matter what the reason is, I have betrayed you, and I should be punished by heaven and earth."

"No need to say more, just do it, this is what I deserve."

Han Feng's words made Yao Chen so angry that his teeth itched.

It sounds easy for you to say it. It would be fine if I didn't know about it before, but now that I already know that there was a problem with the betrayal, and I killed you without knowing anything, wouldn't I feel miserable for the rest of my life?

When Yunshan and others saw the conversation between Master Yaochen and his disciple, they all kept silent and just watched quietly.

This is purely someone else's family affair, but outsiders like them have been meddled in. The more they get involved, the more confused it becomes, not to mention that they have no idea what's going on.

Just when Yao Chen was frowning about this, a weak voice was heard.

"Um. Can I say something?"

"what?"

Yao Chen turned his head and saw Xiao Yixian raising her hand. She nodded slightly and then spoke.

"I have roughly figured out what happened. That is, Senior Han was once your disciple, Master Yao, and he betrayed you, which led to your current appearance. But in fact, there are other reasons. Is that right?"

The Little Medical Fairy explained the situation and Yao Chen nodded slightly.

"Ah, now I want to know why she betrayed me." Yao Chen looked at Han Feng and said in a serious tone, "Whether she kept my body or entrusted Xiao Yan to resurrect me, or gave everything she had including the Strange Fire and the Burning Art to Xiao Yan, I don't believe that your betrayal was out of malice."

"And the burns on your body were left by us, right? Why don't you cure them? I don't believe you don't have the ability to do so."

"I was confused about this when I first met you, but now I have a guess in my mind."

"You feel sorry for me, so you keep the burns to remind yourself all the time, right?"

Yao Chen's words were so heartbreaking that Han Feng's shoulders couldn't help but tremble, but he still didn't say a word.

After hearing what Yao Chen said, Xiao Yixiang lowered her brows and guessed uncertainly after a long time.

“Is it possible that if Senior Han had not betrayed you, you might have been in greater danger?”

"Impossible." As soon as the Little Medical Fairy finished speaking, Yao Chen rejected it without a second thought, "I have my own power in Zhongzhou. When the Soul Palace approached her, she only needed to tell me and I would have taken her back directly. The people in the Soul Palace could not do anything to me."

"So she has absolutely no reason to betray us because of this. As long as she hides for a while and then comes out, nothing will happen."

Yao Chen suddenly thought of something and frowned.

Just hide for a while and then come out

Yao Chen had a serious expression, with realization revealed in his ruby ​​eyes, and he stared at Han Feng.

This is why you betrayed me.

However, before Yao Chen could ask, Han Feng's eyes suddenly changed when he heard Yao Chen's answer to Xiao Yixiang, and he immediately lowered his head.

"You've already died once, but you still have this mentality."

Eh?

What do you mean?

Everyone was a little confused after hearing this, and then they saw Han Feng slowly stand up, staring at Yao Chen with his light golden eyes, with deep disappointment in his eyes.

"Do you really think you are invincible?"

Han Feng changed from his previous cold attitude, as if he was provoked, and extreme anger was revealed in his words.

"He roams around relying on his high level of cultivation, and he ignores any dangers relying on his status as the number one alchemist!"

"Do you know how many people in Zhongzhou are eyeing you?"

"How many times have I told you to go back to Xingyun Pavilion, go back to Xingyun Pavilion! Do you really think I just want you to stay back for a while?! I want you to stop running around!!!"

"You don't realize how valuable you are in the eyes of others! You always think you can solve all problems!"

"Yes! When Mu Gu comes to me, I can tell you the truth. Then you will definitely take me back to Xingyun Pavilion for refuge."

"And then? Won't you run away again after a while?! You don't even take this matter to heart!"

"When the Soul Palace comes to attack you again, they will definitely not come to me again. By then, let alone letting you return to the Falling Star Pavilion in advance, I won't even have the chance to bribe the two Soul Palace guardians!!!"

Han Feng's angry words made Yao Chen stand there in a daze, staring blankly at Han Feng's angry expression, which was the first time he saw it.

"Until the day before Soul Palace took action, I was still hesitant, wondering whether my actions were right or wrong."

"If something goes wrong with this approach, you could really be doomed."

"So on that day, I asked you for the last time if I could return to Xingyun Pavilion."

"And then? Do you still remember your nonchalant attitude?! I even told you clearly that there would be danger, but you still didn't take it seriously!"

"That's why I made up my mind to make you die for real once, at least within the scope of my control! With your personality, you will only know where you went wrong after you die once!"

"Like I just said, you deserve to die!!!"

Han Feng's accusation left Yao Chen speechless for a long time, and he was unable to refute a single word.

Mu Gu originally approached Han Feng just for insurance purposes; it was not necessary to have Han Feng.

After all, Han Feng was only a part of the cause of his own death.

If the Soul Palace is really determined to deal with me, there are many ways to deal with me. At worst, I can just find a few more people.

With my personality of liking to be free and easy, if I stay alone outside all the time, it is only a matter of time before someone will notice me.

In other words, being assassinated or surrounded is only a matter of time.

Yao Chen finally understood that the reason why Han Feng accepted Mu Gu's proposal to betray herself was because she still had room for maneuver and she could still seek the possibility of resurrection for herself.

As for the final result, it all depends on whether your life is destined to end. It is better than letting yourself escape that disaster, but the inevitable death will still come at some point in the future.

It was obvious that Han Feng was taking a gamble, even though he had bribed the Soul Palace guardians and had been preparing for his own resurrection for many years.

But whether Han Feng’s plan can be finally implemented remains unknown.

What if Yao Chen didn't escape the encirclement? What if Han Feng died in the past few years and couldn't find Yao Chen? There were many other accidents that even Han Feng might not have expected.

Han Feng had already thought about these things. It was precisely because she understood the risks that she had been hesitant and asked Yao Chen for the last time.

However, the result of the inquiry not only disappointed Han Feng, but also made him more determined to carry out his plan.

After venting his anger, Han Feng gradually calmed down, took a deep breath, looked at Yao Chen and said coldly.

"Just treat these words as my personal quibbling."

"No matter what the reason is, I betrayed you after all. This is a fact."

"It is an indisputable fact that I took the liberty of gambling with your life."

"Now that my goal has been achieved, I am not required to revive you."

Han Feng glanced at Xiao Yan, then looked at Yao Chen again.

"I have already done what I want to do and what I should do. The rest has nothing to do with me."

This is Han Feng's character.

She doesn't care about right or wrong, she doesn't care about good or evil, she doesn't even have a concept of good or evil.

She only cares about what she wants to do and what she thinks she should do.

As long as she can achieve her goal, she will do it even if it is evil in the eyes of others.

Yao Chen saved his young self from bandits, taught him how to practice, how to make medicine, and how to survive in this world.

Although he is often out of tune and often does things that annoy Han Feng.

But Han Feng still felt that he should consider Yao Chen's future, that's all.

Therefore, she didn't want to see it. She didn't want to see that one day in the future Yao Chen would definitely die because of her character and die because of those who coveted her.

Han Feng didn't care even if he was labeled as a deceased master. He didn't mind being watched by the Soul Palace for so many years and being killed at any time.

As long as I can change her predetermined future, as long as my plan can go to the end, that's enough.

It was the same when she approached Xiao Yan before. It was not because she thought highly of Xiao Yan. She had no likes or dislikes towards anyone. It was simply because her plan required someone like Xiao Yan.

The same reason applies to risking one's life to protect Xiao Yan, because Xiao Yan has become the core of his plan, and even if he, who is already outside the plan, dies, he must keep Xiao Yan alive.

She had specifically told Xiao Yan not to mention herself in the letter she had left for him, and the reason why she was unwilling to tell the truth even though Yao Chen had been questioning her was because she didn't want Yao Chen to think that there would always be someone around to help her, and thus be optimistic.

However, what Yao Chen said just now made Han Feng very disappointed.

She is still the same, hasn't changed at all.

At this moment, Han Feng suddenly felt that all he had done was in vain.

Bang!

Suddenly, Han Feng was hit hard on the head, making him stunned.

Then he looked at Yao Chen who was blowing his fist, and heard her say lightly.

"Okay, the punishment is over."

I am afraid that I have not clearly explained the reason why Han Feng betrayed me in this chapter, which may cause you to not understand, so I will briefly summarize it here.

Han Feng does not betray → tells Yao Chen → Yao Chen takes her back to Xingyun Pavilion for refuge → comes out after a while → is surrounded and killed again

Han Feng betrayed → tried to make Yao Chen's soul escape as much as possible → searched for Yao Chen and collected the conditions for Yao Chen's resurrection → found Yao Chen and resurrected him → Yao Chen had learned his lesson after dying once and stopped running around. Of course, Han Feng didn't intend to tell Yao Chen about this plan. She originally hoped that she would always be a traitor in Yao Chen's heart, and the greater the heartache, the deeper the memory.

It may seem a little awkward, but as long as you remember that Yao Chen is a person who is used to freedom, it is impossible to make her realize the problem just by talking. Moreover, because of her strong strength and being the best alchemist on the continent, she always feels that she can solve the problem even if she encounters trouble.

Chapter 359 Thank you for your hard work

ha?

Han Feng was a little confused, and before he could speak, Yao Chen spoke again calmly.

"I already know my faults."

"Your faults have already been punished by your master."

“So let’s just let all of this go.”

Yao Shen's words made Han Feng stunned, and then he said in disbelief.

"What kind of punishment is this? I betrayed you!"

"We said it was punishment, so this is punishment. Do you have any objections?" Yao Shen raised his eyebrows slightly, stretched out his jade finger and pointed at the center of Han Feng's eyebrows, "Our fault is our arrogance, and your fault is not betrayal. As a teacher, my mistake was not to consult with my teacher.”

Yao Chen said this and paused awkwardly.

"Although... well, I also know that my previous personality cannot be corrected by a good discussion. The reason why I figured it out so quickly now is because I died once."
