Chapter 8

【The Three Truths Sect is deeply rooted in the north and has a profound influence.】

【Many disciples from wealthy families joined the Three Truths Sect, and now the world is in chaos, seeking to avoid disaster.】

【Many disciples in the sect said, just relying on a good younger brother.】

【Just relying on flattering the ancestor.】

【Your heart is calm, not anxious or impatient, practicing every day as always.】

【On this day, the master brought you a letter. The envelope had Lu Yu's name, and the content of the letter was only a few short words: "Father is in danger, save him quickly."】

【Your heart tightened, you recognized the handwriting at a glance, this is Lu Yu's letter.】

【For this month, news has been coming from down the mountain, the two provinces of Hebei have fallen, and the iron cavalry has begun to cross the river.】

【The defenders of the Great Qing Dynasty fled at the sight of the wind.】

【With your father's temperament, he mostly won't flee; is it a death battle? It was actually sent by Lu Yu, so the current situation is very dangerous.】

【You frown, looking at the letter in your hand and pondering for a long time.】

【Reminder: Today's heavenly human reincarnation has ended, please come back tomorrow, already saved.】

【Warm reminder: No special item reward, this reincarnation reward, please check after the reincarnation ends.】

【One day in the human world, ten years in the cauldron.】

Following this prompt, it announced that Yu Ke's simulation today is over.

This heavenly human reincarnation is also—"anti-addiction?"】

His eyes fall on the last popped-up information, the letter from Lu Yu, mentioning that his father is in a crisis.】

This letter is like an unresolved puzzle, putting him at a fork in the road of choice again.】

Whether to go down the mountain or continue to cultivate in the mountains.】

He has the fate of 【Late Bloomer】, it seems he has to take the route of accumulating and waiting for the right moment in the later stage.】

Ten years of simulation, cultivation progress is average, stay in the mountains to cultivate or go down the mountain?】

After all, if you can influence the progress of this Kunxu world, you can also get rewards.】

It seems to be another important choice, just stuck at the end time.】

Yu Ke looks out the window, it is still moonlight.】

He yawns, and sleepiness surges like a tide.】

He is not sure if it is an illusion, but after this simulation, he really feels unprecedented fatigue, exhausting his spirit.】

Really sleepy!】

He turned over and fell into a deep sleep.】

However, while Yu Ke was sleeping, the ancient cauldron in his brain began to rotate slowly, emitting a faint light.】

Around Yu Ke's body, like a tiny cyclone, it attracted strands of spiritual energy into his body.】

As spiritual energy continued to pour in, the heavy patterns on the 【Kunxu Cauldron】 seemed to be given life and became vivid.】

The twentieth year of Yongxiang, early spring.】

Mount Zhongnan.】

Spring rain like silk.】

Dense rain feet pattered on the eaves of a Daoist temple on the mountainside.】

After the rainwater gathered, it followed the tiles, silk rain became lines, piercing the air and falling.】

Under the eaves, a group of young Daoists of the Three Truths Sect stood with their sleeves tucked, their eyes pleasantly cast into the distance, with a lazy appreciation of the lake and mountain scenery.】

Outside the Daoist temple, the green mountains are like black.】

Today the spring rain is lingering, and the young Daoists are spared the suffering of early morning work, no longer having to climb the mountain and go down the mountain hard.】

Their ages are all just about to come of age.】

It is leisurely.】

The rain became heavier, and raindrops like soybeans smashed on the blue stone steps, splashing water vapor filling the air; they avoided one after another, fearing to be wetted by the cold water vapor.】

Although it is early spring, there is still the lingering cold of winter in the mountains, and thick quilts are still needed to keep out the cold at night.】

At this time, an abrupt voice broke the tranquility of the rain curtain.】

"Look, isn't that Junior Uncle Ancestor Lu Chen?"】

Wind and rain were mixed, and the vision was already blurred, but a sharp-eyed young Daoist was the first to capture that figure.】

Everyone looked in the direction of the voice one after another.】

Only to see on the mountain plank road, a figure moving downward with difficulty in the wind and rain.】

The clothes had been soaked by the rain, tightly sticking to the body, revealing a bit of embarrassment.】

However, such a scene did not arouse the sympathy of the crowd, but triggered a burst of whispering and dissatisfied ridicule.】

"Cut! Practicing in such heavy rain, it's really asking for trouble, aren't you afraid of mountain floods?"】

"Tsk tsk, just pretending." A young Daoist shook his head contemptuously, his eyes full of disdain.】

"That is, isn't it just knowing how to flatter? Having a rich father, having some background at home, what's there to be proud of." Someone muttered jealously.】

You must know that even their master has to respectfully call him Junior Uncle when meeting Lu Chen.】

However, at this moment, with Lu Yu's departure.】

These young Daoists expressed their dissatisfaction and ridicule for Lu Chen without any cover.】

"No talent at all, practiced Dao for five years, I'm afraid he can't even beat me, haha."】

"Speaking of Junior Uncle Ancestor Lu Yu, that is the real hero, leading a group of senior brothers down the mountain to the north; if it weren't for my young age last year, I would have gone with him."】

"That is, that is." The young Daoists around echoed one after another.】

Until Lu Chen approached the Daoist temple.】

Among this group of Daoists, the tallest Daoist stood out, he swept his eyes over the crowd, his tone full of contempt:】

"Look at this Junior Uncle Ancestor Lu Chen again, his martial arts cultivation is mediocre, his courage is small, and he doesn't even have the courage to go down the mountain to practice."】

The voice was not loud, but enough for Lu Chen to hear.】

As soon as his words fell, everyone's eyes cast on the figure on the mountain plank road again, expecting him to react.】

However, that figure just paused slightly, then returned to its original state, continuing to walk alone in the wind and rain, as if all this had nothing to do with him.】

Lu Chen's figure became more and more lonely in the wind and rain.】

Went down the mountain in the sky full of wind and rain.】

"Cut, boring."】

Looking at Lu Chen's back as he left, the tall Daoist muttered.】

At this moment, a young Daoist with freckles on his face approached; he had a tender figure and was the youngest among this group of Daoists.】

He will welcome the year of coming of age next year and officially step into the ranks of adulthood.】

The world is in chaos, and he was sent into the mountains early by his family to avoid disaster.】

He said softly, his tone revealing some complex emotions:】

"That Junior Uncle Ancestor Lu Chen is quite diligent, 365 days a year, rain or shine. I woke up in the middle of the night several times to pee and saw him practicing stakes alone."】

The tall Daoist snorted lightly, not caring.】

"What if he is diligent? Talent is insufficient, no matter how much he practices, it is difficult to achieve anything. You know, this world's cultivation, the word talent is heavier than Mount Tai."】

The young Daoist stared at Lu Chen's back, but ripples appeared in his heart:】

Is such a person really as others say, achieving nothing?】

Not long after.】

The dense rain had quietly turned into slanting wind and fine rain, and strands of coolness penetrated through the lapels and gently seeped into the skin.】

Inside the Daoist temple, the time for early morning work had ended, and the disciples tidied their clothes one after another, preparing to enter the morning class.】

That figure that used to run up and down, in everyone's eyes, gradually became no longer noticed.】

However, no matter how the eyes of the outside world changed, that figure remained the same, firm and persistent.】

He finished the early morning work of climbing the mountain, his movements gradually slowed down, and finally stood quietly beside a water puddle.】

The water surface shook slightly, reflecting a calm young face with bright eyes.】

He walked into a small hut alone on the mountainside.】

On the table and chairs in the hut lay a letter quietly.】

The words on it tugged at the young man's heart.】

"Father is in danger, return quickly."】
