Chapter 4574: ?Peerless in Both Civil and Martial Prowess, Mei Changsu

~5 min read 988 words

Cheng Long Doesn't Want to Archeology: "Honestly speaking, Nirvana in Fire is really super good-looking! At first, when I read the president's words, I thought Nirvana in Fire would be a wuxia story similar to The Legend of the Condor Heroes."

Cheng Long Doesn't Want to Archeology: "Later, as I kept watching, I thought it might be a historical story like Qin Empire... but in the end, I discovered! Nirvana in Fire is just... Nirvana in Fire."

Cheng Long Doesn't Want to Archeology: "It completely broke free from the limitations of those......... stories, forming its own system — it's a story of stratagems."

Cheng Long was not stingy with his words, and lavished high praise.

Gao Ban Kyosuke: "... You say that, and I won't accept it! Speaking purely of stratagems, me, Edogawa Conan and the rest of us aren't also heaven-defying? And when it comes to stories of stratagems with dynasty attributes, Lelouch's side absolutely must have a place in the conversation."

Sakata Gintoki: "Well-reasoned, well-supported, utterly convincing!"

Yukinoshuki Yukino: "I looked it up — Great Liang... this is the first era of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, Later Liang, but it also feels somewhat off."

Yukinoshuki Yukino's brow furrowed tightly, feeling it didn't match the history on her side.

Gudako: "Don't think about it! It's just a fictional era."

Gudako was extremely certain.

As a Master of Chaldea, world history was her required course — even the relatively lesser-known history of the Five Dynasties and Ten Kingdoms, she likewise knew it by heart.

Fan Xian: "But, Mei Changsu is really super amazing! Once honored as the young lord of the Chiyan Army, his future should have been becoming an unparalleled fierce general."

But precisely because the Chiyan Army was framed and massacred, he transformed into an unmatched famed minister.

Fan Xian was deeply moved.

Ye Hei: "... Although I also think Mei Changsu is amazing! But you can't say he's an unmatched famed minister — after all, his ultimate goal was to kill the Emperor of Great Liang."

Nyaruko: "No no no! You're wrong — he killed the Emperor only for revenge... and actually, at the very end of the entire story, Mei Changsu, knowing full well he would die, was still willing to sacrifice his own life to defend the safety of Great Liang."

Nyaruko: "At that moment, he was already no weaker than any famed minister in the world."

It's just a pity... he was severely wounded, utterly frail.

Otherwise, he would have been peerless in both civil and martial prowess.

Gao Ban Kyosuke: "Not just that... it should be said to be unrivaled in both civil and martial prowess."

Demon Buddha Wutian: "Interesting! Far too interesting... Jiangzuo Meilang."

After experiencing so much, is your heart not brimming with resentment and helplessness — you who once harbored kindness, yet were precisely schemed against and pushed out, and thus came to loathe this world?

In the eyes of Buddha Wutian, an unusual gleam flickered.

After deliberating for a moment, he continued to speak.

Demon Buddha Wutian: "If that is truly so! I have here a Scripture of Chaotic Demons, which I can give to you for free... you may well use it to possess the mighty power to overturn the world!"

Demon Buddha Wutian: "Killing the Emperor to demand justice for the Chiyan Army — where would you need to scheme a hundred times over,"

Jiangzuo Meilang: "......"

Mei Changsu's heart surged with enormous waves.

Without a doubt, he was tempted.

After a brief silence, Mei Changsu regained his composure.

He organized his words a little, and posted a question in the guild.

Jiangzuo Meilang: "Thank you for your kindness to me, and I am likewise curious... why you, bearing the title of Demon Buddha, are willing to help me"

Liu Peiqiang: "... Perhaps it's because"

The two of you have very similar experiences"

Liu Peiqiang was lost in thought.

Ah Xing: "Oh right! If you hadn't mentioned it, I wouldn't have remembered... Demon Buddha Wutian also once harbored kindness, but suffered injustice, and thus fell to the dark side."

Shinomiya Kaguya: "Um... Mei Changsu didn't fall to the dark side, did he — he always persisted in the kindness in his heart, the paths of the two are fundamentally different."

Wallfacer Luo Ji: "So, what on earth are you all off on your own discussing — if Mei Changsu truly has to make a decision... that's for him to make himself, what does it have to do with you"

Luo Ji was utterly speechless.

Mei Changsu is a sage — what such a sage wants to do, they have their own measure in their heart, where does it fall to outsiders to meddle — Wallfacer Luo Ji: "Jiangzuo Meilang."

What are your plans for the future"

Jiangzuo Meilang: "... Just as you all said, first cultivate diligently, and recover my health."

Mei Changsu pressed his lips tight — his emotions were complicated at this moment.

The appearance of this guild, for him, was truly wonderful.

Mei Changsu sighed faintly, thoughts flickering through his mind.

Once his body recovered and his strength grew, he could far more easily achieve his goal.

In Mei Changsu's eyes there was no trace of a gentleman's bearing — he only wanted to avenge his comrades! In the final analysis, he was no longer Lin Shu, but a vengeful evil ghost returned from hell.

Jiangzuo Meilang: "Um... everyone, I am extremely grateful for your enthusiasm! But, could you wait until I've been in the guild a little longer before discussing things."

Jiangzuo Meilang: "Once I have a certain understanding of you all, and our feelings have deepened a little, when I need your help, I will certainly not be stingy about asking."

Ah Xing: "Tsk tsk, look at this guy's silver tongue! He's clearly suspicious of why you're all so enthusiastic, but the way he puts it sounds so pleasant..."

Nishimiya Shoko: "......"
