Justice snorted and said coldly, "This Seat has never had the habit of making a move against someone who is on the verge of death and has no ability to retaliate at all. However, do you really think that you will be able to escape after you recover from your injuries? "
Ling Tian laughed, "Four months ago, everyone in the world thought that I was definitely going to die. However, I am still alive even now." He narrowed his eyes and looked at Justice, "On the other hand, a certain someone was actually ambushed by a bunch of shrimps and almost lost his life …"
Out of Ling Tian's expectations, Justice suddenly laughed. His icy cold face was like the thawing of a river and there seemed to be a deeper meaning behind his smile. Looking at Ling Tian, he shook his head and smiled, "Speaking of the previous incident, I would like to ask you about something. After I was injured, why didn't you and your other girlfriend turn around and hunt me down? If you had turned around, don't you think that the two of you would have had a chance? "
Ling Tian's eyes flashed, "Why wouldn't I think about it? The previous incident was a heaven-sent opportunity. After the incident, I went to the scene and confirmed that although you obtained a complete victory, you were definitely injured. Based on my experience with you, that period of time should have been when you were at your weakest. If Li Xue and I were to join hands, we would have had a 60% chance of killing you …"
"Oh, then why didn't you make a move against me? I was not too far away from the two of you. If the two of you wanted to find me, it wouldn't have been a difficult task!" Justice asked with interest.
Ling Tian paused for a moment, "There are three main reasons. Firstly, no matter what your stance is, you were the one who gave me time to prepare. Our agreement can be considered a gentleman's agreement. If I were to take advantage of your precarious situation, my mental state would be affected. I don't want to do that!"
Justice smiled again, "What about the other two reasons?"
"Furthermore, according to my calculations, even if we were to join hands and kill you, we would definitely be injured by your backlash. At the very least, one of us would die and the other would be heavily injured. This is an outcome that I am not willing to accept! Furthermore, it is also dangerous! "
"What's the last reason?!" Justice asked.
"The last reason is that you are the most powerful person in the world. You are one of the few people in the world who understands loneliness. There are too few people like you. Therefore, I would rather bet that I can escape from your pursuit in the end! Unfortunately, I seem to have lost this agreement! "Ling Tian's tone suddenly became somewhat gloomy.
"Understand loneliness? Understand loneliness? Well said, you are indeed my confidant. Unfortunately, I am not your confidant. You made me wait for so many days in vain! "Justice shook his head and sighed. He was actually somewhat disappointed. He seemed to be quite dissatisfied with Ling Tian for not taking advantage of the situation to hunt him down last time.
Ling Tian was startled. Suddenly, a thought came to his mind. His heart sank, "The last time you fought with Above Heavens … you did it on purpose?!" Although it was a questioning tone, Ling Tian had already confirmed it in his heart. After confirming it, he actually felt a bit of lingering fear.
Justice narrowed his eyes and looked at Ling Tian with interest. "Oh? Why would I do it on purpose? "
Ling Tian snorted and adjusted his state of mind. He rolled his eyes and said, "Because you want to die!"
Justice laughed heartily. He clapped his hands and said, "Well said! This seat has tried all sorts of dangerous things in his life, but there is one thing that I have never tried before. "
Ling Tian said mockingly, "I know that you have never died before." He suddenly chuckled, "Don't think that you are omnipotent and treat others as fools. At your level of martial arts, how can it be easy for you to break through? If you only meditate and cultivate, I'm afraid that you won't be able to break through even if you meditate for a hundred years. "
Justice laughed and asked, "Then how should I break through?"
Ling Tian chuckled and said, "Don't you already know? It is death! Only by placing yourself at the edge of death, infinitely close to death, will you be able to feel the pressure and sense life and death. Only at that moment will you be able to feel the pressure and urgency. Only then will you be able to break through! Furthermore, you did not place your hopes on those from Above Heavens. You placed your hopes on me and Li Xue. Only with the two of us working together will we be able to pose a threat to your life. In fact, the injuries you suffered in that fight weren't that serious, right? The injuries you suffered were just a tool to lure us to assassinate you! Am I right? Furthermore, I believe that even though we have fought many times, you have never displayed your full strength. Thus, you were extremely confident that you would be able to deal with us. Firstly, you would be able to feel the pressure of life and death. Secondly, you would be able to fight to your heart's content. Thirdly, you would be able to get rid of me! "
Ling Tian looked at Justice mockingly. "However, you completely miscalculated that time, right? You fought with the other party for nothing. Because you intentionally suppressed your strength, victory was already within your grasp. However, you didn't gain any enlightenment from that fight. In the end, the people who should have turned around to assassinate you didn't do so either. Your perfect plan of killing three birds with one stone was completely foiled, right?! "
Justice's face turned red for the first time. However, he let out a long sigh and said, "You are indeed my confidant. You have seen through my plans completely. I fought with you several times and each time, I only used 70% of my strength at most. Otherwise, how would I have the strength to avoid your endless tricks? However, you guessed wrong about one thing. "
Justice looked at Ling Tian indifferently and said, "That time, I was really injured. If I wasn't really injured, how would I be able to lure you guys to chase after me? However, I didn't expect you to not fall for it! You've really disappointed me! "
Ling Tian felt like his scalp was about to explode. Justice's thoughts and strength were actually equally terrifying. If he and Li Xue had really overestimated their abilities and turned around to assassinate Justice, that would be seeking death! Thankfully, his pride didn't allow him to do so. What a fluke!
Although Ling Tian was shocked in his heart, he still maintained a smile on his face. "So, one of the reasons why you're waiting here is to ask me what I felt when I was on the brink of death. Or should I say, what kind of enlightenment did I have?"
Justice's eyes flashed and he said calmly, "That was one of the reasons. Your guess is correct. Are you willing to tell me? "
Ling Tian burst out into laughter, "Actually, this can't be considered a secret. However, your thinking is wrong. Even if I tell you everything and tell you my feelings bit by bit, you will only listen to a story at the very most and not have any sort of epiphany! I find it hard to imagine that a Martial Order Medallion owner like you would actually make such a mistake! "
Justice looked at him calmly. His voice was low and filled with helplessness. "You're right! Actually, how could I not know? It's just that, other than this, what other methods do I have? In today's world, if I were to send you off, who would be able to force me to my death? Even if you, Ling Tian, used all your strength and all the experts of the Tamago's Small family to besiege me, as long as I want to leave, none of you will be able to do anything to stop me! Under such circumstances, what kind of enlightenment is there to talk about? Previously, I could fake my injuries in hopes of attracting your assassination, but I was still disappointed in the end! "
Ling Tian laughed heartily, to the point that tears flowed out of his eyes. He laughed so hard that all the wounds on his body started to hurt, but he still couldn't stop laughing. "That's true! You always have a final path of retreat in your hands. In this world, there's no one or power that can kill you. Even if you were to be assassinated, it would be your own doing, and you would have absolute confidence in escaping. As such, how could you possibly have the enlightenment of being on the brink of death? Hahaha … who asked your martial arts to be so high? Haha … looks like being too high in martial arts isn't necessarily a good thing. Even if you want to die, it'll be difficult! Haha … I'm dying of laughter. "
Justice looked at him coldly. "What's so funny? With your current strength and aptitude, as well as your extraordinary fortuitous encounters, you'll reach my level sooner or later. At that time, you'll know what kind of feeling it is. At that time, you won't even be able to cry, let alone laugh. "
"No, no, no … you're wrong." Ling Tian laughed as he continued. "Even if I reach your level, I won't have the same worries as you. Because in this world, other than martial arts, I have too many things to do. I have too many pursuits. Therefore, I won't be as lonely as you, and I won't fall into your worries of not being able to die even if I want to. But you're different. Other than martial arts, you don't have any other pursuits in your life. No matter what, you don't care about the vicissitudes of life, the change of dynasties, the sickness and death of others. In your eyes, all of these are just passing clouds. They're meaningless. Therefore, you'll suffer, but I won't. "
"Nonsense, I'm from the Hundred Schools of Thought. Medicine, divination, astrology, there's nothing I don't know. There's nothing I'm not proficient in. I'm even proficient in agriculture and water conservancy. However, they're not like martial arts, there's no end to them! My greatest wish in life is to reach the pinnacle of martial arts! "Justice retorted.
Ling Tian was secretly speechless. Is he still human? He's actually learned all the Hundred Schools of Thought? Huang Yaoshi from another world?! How ridiculous!
Although he was shocked in his heart, he argued, "Even if you're knowledgeable and know all sorts of things, it doesn't mean that you won't be lonely! Just like what you said, there's only one place you want to go, and that's to reach the pinnacle of martial arts. But you, will always be lonely! "
Justice pondered for a long time. Even when he was deep in thought, a sense of loneliness and coldness naturally emanated from his body.
Xiao YanXue quietly walked in, holding a round bamboo tube in her hands. She helped Ling Tian up and brought the tube to his mouth, feeding him a few mouthfuls of water. Then, she quietly walked out.
Ling Tian's eyes were filled with admiration and satisfaction. A woman must know when to exist, when to avoid, when to act coquettishly, and when to remain silent. If she blindly acted coquettishly and showed off her charm regardless of the occasion, it would only cause the disgust of the men around her. Once or twice was fine, but once it happened too many times, no matter how cute and charming a woman was, her position in the hearts of men would be lowered, and she would cause them to be disgusted. As for Xiao YanXue, she had undoubtedly done a perfect job in this aspect. If you want to know what happened next, please go to www.qidian.com. There are more chapters. Support the author.
