Chapter 262 Sunset
" Zhifei, how long have you been in our Xueshan Academy?" Ning Wansong suddenly asked Liu Zhifei this question..
" Why do you ask?" Liu Zhifei looked at Ning Wansong suspiciously. He didn't know what Ning Wansong meant..
" Answer me first. How long have you been in our Snow Mountain Academy?"
After listening to Ning Wansong's words, Liu Zhifei was silent for a moment and then replied respectfully," Dean, I, Liu Zhifei, have joined Snow Mountain Academy since I can remember. I remember when I was five years old, my family was killed by bandits and my family was destroyed..
”
"Fortunately, I, Liu Zhifei, survived until now because I was taken in by the Dean. Dean, I, Liu Zhifei, will never forget your great kindness to me..
”
"Five years old. You're twenty-five this year. It's been twenty years since you counted it carefully..
"Ning Wansong has a feeling in his heart..
Do you know why I founded Snow Mountain Academy?"
"Zhifei, always remember that your original intention in founding Snow Mountain Academy was to give all the homeless children in the world a home. At the same time, they can also study the Book of Sage here at Snow Mountain Academy. After learning, they can benefit the world..
”
"Yes, it is..
”
Ning Wansong nodded." Isn't that the original intention of the Confucian Sect?"
" The only pity is that the path has gone astray. At least the other academies in Jiangling are no longer as pure as when they were first founded. They only care about seeking official positions in Chu and have no idea of benefiting the common people..
”
"I, Ning Wansong, founded Snow Mountain Academy thirty years ago. At that time, Jiangling was in a state of war and the people were living in poverty..
After years of war, countless families were broken and countless children were homeless..
I, Ning Wansong, see it in my eyes and feel pain in my heart..
”
"Fortunately, I, Ning Wansong, traveled around the world in my early years and collected many books and techniques. I used this opportunity to establish Snow Mountain Academy and cultivate many disciples like you..
”
"I, Ning Wansong, am most pleased and proud that you can listen to my teachings..
”
Ning Wansong suddenly sighed..
"Unfortunately, everything in this world has a destiny. Perhaps our Snow Mountain Academy will come to an end this time..
”
"Dean, you once taught your disciples not to be pessimistic when faced with things. You must still have hope until the last moment..
Maybe one day we'll be able to turn things around..
”
"Well, I'm sorry..
”
Ning Wansong nodded." That's true, but do you know that no matter how beautiful the sunset is, it only lasts for a moment?"
"King Chu is aggressive. He is unwilling to disclose the death of Crown Prince Zongyao. He is eager to control the entire Jiangling area and gather all the major sects. Not only is he trying to remove the minions of the major sects and completely eliminate the threat, but he is also trying to take down the territory of Qi and Yan..
”
"I, Ning Wansong, saw this point and was reluctant to yield. I always adhered to my inner beliefs..
”
Ning Wansong continued," If the King of Chu doesn't press us step by step, our Xueshan Academy will form its own sect. Even if the King of Chu starts another war, our Xueshan Academy will still be able to stand firm in troubled times and provide shelter for homeless children..
”
"However, the existence of our Snow Mountain Academy is like a nail in the eyes of King Chu. If it cannot be used by him, then the rest can only be destroyed..
”
"So, you should leave. Take the disciples of Snow Mountain Academy and leave Jiangling. Go somewhere else..
”
Dean, are you going to chase away all the disciples of our Snow Mountain Academy?"
Liu Zhifei's eyes suddenly turned red..
Only then did Liu Zhifei understand why Ning Wansong had asked him about the date he came to Snow Mountain Academy..
It turned out that Ning Wansong wanted to leave a final thought for himself..
:.
Lin Xuan sat silently at the side, always maintaining silence..
Lin Xuan knew that under such circumstances, he should not interrupt Ning Wansong and Liu Zhifei's conversation..
However, Lin Xuan also completely saw it now..
Snow Mountain Academy's current situation is already sunset, and the building is about to collapse.
" You are the hope of our Snow Mountain Academy. If you disperse, even if King Chu investigates in the future, he will not be able to kill all the disciples of our Snow Mountain Academy. You are like that seed, spreading everywhere in a short period of time and hiding among them..
”
"When the right opportunity comes, you seeds will grow into a towering tree..
”
"I, Ning Wansong, have always believed that I did not misjudge you, and you have always adhered to the beliefs I, Ning Wansong, taught you. I am proud of you for this..
”
"No," he said.
”
Liu Zhifei shook his head like a rattle.
"Dean Ning, we won't. We won't leave. We're going to live and die with Snow Mountain Academy..
”
"Thank you..
”
"Cough cough…"
Ning Wansong was about to say something when he suddenly started coughing violently again..
"Wow!"
Ning Wansong suddenly spat out a pool of black blood..
Seeing this scene, Lin Xuan's pupils suddenly contracted..
Lin Xuan learned from the Secret Book of Alchemy Emperor that if he vomited black blood, if it was not a symptom of poisoning, it meant that the injuries in his body had reached a very serious level. It was already difficult for gods to save him..
Lin Xuan looked at Ning Wansong again..
As expected, Ning Wansong's aura had weakened a lot compared to when he faced Kong Buyu. Even his face had turned pale..
Lin Xuan quickly took out a bottle of top-grade rejuvenation pills and handed it to Ning Wansong..
"Dean Ning, this is a top-grade rejuvenation pill that I, Lin Xuan, personally refined. It has a 100% medicinal effect. If you take it, it may be able to slightly recover your injuries or at least suppress them for a period of time..
”
Ning Wansong reached out and took the top-grade Rejuvenation Pill. He took it in front of him and sniffed it gently. He sighed and said,"Not bad, this is indeed a top-grade Rejuvenation Pill.".
”
"Little brother Lin Xuan, I didn't expect you to have the ability to refine elixirs. It seems Zhifei was right. I believe that those Chu soldiers you killed in Jiangling City had a reason..
”
"To tell you the truth, I acted that day because when I arrived at Jiangling, I saw a few corpses exposed in the wilderness outside the city, emitting a foul smell. The passers-by saw them and turned a blind eye. They looked like they had something to hide. I was puzzled, so I asked about relevant information in Jiangling City..
”
"But I didn't think that the people of Jiangling seemed to be so secretive about it that they didn't want to say anything more..
Later, I met Miss Qin and found out that the corpses outside the city were guards of the Qin family. The Qin family was destroyed by the King of Chu..
”
" A cunning rabbit dies, a lackey is cooked! This is an unchanging principle from ancient times. Chu Zongteng used the Qin family to establish his fame outside and had a high prestige in Jiangling area..
If Prince Zong Yao does not die, Zong Teng is at best a prince, occupying a party.
