Chapter 1831: Only Then Can One Be At Ease

This was also within expectations; Chen Yu smiled slightly, and the matter was thus set aside.

It seems that some generals in ancient times who slaughtered cities did not necessarily enjoy killing, but rather it was the nature of humanity; if he did not slaughter a city, his soldiers would suffer heavy casualties, and the losses would outweigh the gains.

Therefore, many times, they would rather bear the infamy than fail to slaughter the city, thus securing a sense of safety.

"Master." Not long after staying at the Tang family estate, Tang Yi sought him out.

"What is it?" Chen Yu saw his hesitant appearance and asked.

"When will you teach me something?" Tang Yi asked.

"Haven't I already taught you the Tao Te Ching and the Taoist Breathing Collection?" Chen Yu asked.

"But... those are just the most basic things, and I have already mastered them," Tang Yi said. "What I want to learn is not those."

"Heh, what is it that you want to learn?" Chen Yu smiled faintly.

Tang Yi's natural talent was actually quite good; he learned everything taught to him very quickly.

However, one cannot become fat in a single bite; if Chen Yu were to forcibly use the Divine Light Empowerment, he could quickly help him break through to a Martial Ancestor.

But doing so would carry a hint of pulling up seedlings to help them grow.

Chen Yu still hoped that he could keep his feet on the ground and take it one step at a time.

"What I want to learn is the same cultivation method as yours," Tang Yi said earnestly. "I don't think I'm bad, so..."

"Cultivation method." Chen Yu raised his head and looked at him deeply: "Do you really think a cultivation method is so easy to learn?"

"I know it's not easy to learn, but I hope you will give me a chance," Tang Yi said. "My pursuit is not the realm of Martial Dao, but to become the same kind of person as you."

"Not bad, young man, you have quite a lot of spirit." Chen Yu nodded approvingly, and he said leisurely: "Don't worry, since I have taken you as my disciple, I will train you well."

"It's just that the timing is not right yet. Your Spirit Root is considered upper-middle, but you started a bit late. However, it's not a big problem; once you have laid a solid foundation, I will naturally pass on different things to you."

"Really?" Tang Yi was overjoyed. Originally, he shouldn't have brought these things up, because his grandfather taught him to ask what should be asked and not to ask what shouldn't be asked.

Whatever Chen Yu gave him, he would learn; if he didn't give it to him, he could not reach out and ask for it.

But today he really couldn't help it, which led to the words just now, but he never expected that Chen Yu would actually agree immediately.

"The things I give you now are to help you lay a good foundation. The study of the Tao itself is about using one's own power to communicate with heaven and earth; it is not that simple, but it also depends on one's own comprehension."

Chen Yu said: "No matter what you learn, laying a good foundation is a must, so do you understand why I say this?"

"I understand, Master. Don't worry, I will definitely lay a good foundation." Tang Yi nodded heavily.

"Your progress is actually quite fast." Chen Yu looked at him. In just a few days, Tang Yi had grasped everything he taught, which showed that he had talent in this area.

Chen Yu was different from others; he did not cultivate step by step, but rather obtained a legacy.

By comparison, he had missed out on much of the hardship of cultivation, but he understood the loneliness and solitude within it.

Therefore, Tang Yi's current stage is the most difficult one, but once he has mastered the most basic things, the path ahead will be much easier to walk.

"Thank you, Master. After receiving your teachings, I have been studying without sleep or rest, not daring to be the least bit slack." Tang Yi nodded.

"Come, as your master, I will now teach you to do one thing," Chen Yu said slowly.

"What thing?" Tang Yi was slightly stunned.

"Kill someone." Chen Yu spat out the two words simply.

"Kill someone?" Tang Yi was startled. He suddenly raised his head and looked at Chen Yu with some confusion: "Kill whom?"

"Someone who deserves to die. And since you want to maintain the stability of Chinatown and want to sit in this position, you must discard your benevolence," Chen Yu said. "It is fundamentally impossible to keep your hands clean of blood, so the thing you must do is to kill a few people first as a sacrifice to heaven."

"I have never killed anyone." Tang Yi felt a bit uneasy inside.

"Then go learn," Chen Yu said. "Don't have any pressure in your heart, because you will have to face this kind of thing sooner or later. Since that is the case, it is better to let your hands be stained with blood sooner."

"Those who achieve great things must avoid being timid and having an overflow of saintly compassion. If you have it, put it away as soon as possible, otherwise, you will be the one who suffers in the end."

"I know. Where to?" A chill rose in Tang Yi's eyes; he knew that what Chen Yu said was correct.

"Just follow me," Chen Yu said faintly.

The place the two went to was a prison not far from the Aner Grand Mansion.

This prison was originally for imprisoning hostile forces, but later, as Aner did good deeds, some heinous villains were also captured and brought here.

Chen Yu is now an honored guest in the Aner Mansion, and he is unimpeded wherever he goes.

In a dark, gloomy prison, a giant was released.

This guy was a typical Western giant, two meters tall, with bulging muscles and tattoos that were extremely impactful.

The guy's hands and feet were locked with heavy chains, and he was hung in a Water Prison, with the part below his chest soaked in water.

Chen Yu had someone bring the giant up. The giant squinted at the two of them and revealed a smile.

Although he looked very weak, his smile appeared sinister and gave people a very strong sense of impact.

Giant Mashiu, an existence that once gave Interpol a headache; this guy ignored all laws and regulations, and in his eyes, there was only slaughter.

"Kill him." Chen Yu handed Tang Yi a knife.

"Why?" Tang Yi's first reaction was why he had to kill him.

"Because he is a bad person," Chen Yu said faintly. "And for many evil people, there is a reason to kill them, because he deserves to die."

"But now he is tied up and has no power to truss a chicken; we shouldn't..." Tang Yi held the knife in his hand, trembling slightly.

"But that does not change the fact that he is a wicked person," Chen Yu said faintly. "If you cannot overcome this hurdle in your heart, then you will be held back in everything you do in the future, and in the end, you will be delayed by yourself."

"My family tradition does not allow me to attack an unarmed person." Tang Yi gritted his teeth and still shook his head in refusal.

"Then forget your family upbringing and traditions." Chen Yu raised his eyebrows and looked at Mashiu: "Today I will give you a chance. If you can defeat him, you can leave here."

"Are you serious?" Mashiu raised his head and revealed a cruel smile: "You're sure about this kid compared to me?"
