Chapter 514 Opportunity
Chapter 514 Opportunity
"After Senior Brother Ju becomes a true disciple, we can reunite in this secret realm again."
Tian Lin now finally understood why Zhou Mengjiao did not fulfill her promise to have a party.
He simply said, "In that case, let's wait until Senior Brother Ju recovers from his injury, and then we can have a drink together."
Zhou Mengjiao smiled and said, "I think Senior Brother Ju's injury will heal in less than half a month. By then, I, a disappointing husband, will have another supporter."
She turned the topic to the young man next to her.
Tian Lin also looked at the young man next to him, and bowed to him and said, "I heard that Brother Wang is from the Wang family? Speaking of which, Senior Sister Wang and I are friends. So regardless of Junior Sister Zhou's relationship, you and I should get closer in the future."
The young man was indeed from the Wang family. If he was not a member of the Wang family's aristocratic family, he would not have been able to marry Zhou Mengjiao.
However, his status in the Wang family is not high, otherwise he would not have been unable to get into Zhou Mengjiao's bed until now after their marriage.
When Tian Lin saluted him, he returned the salute and said, "I often heard Miss Zhou mention Senior Brother Tian's name at home. Today I see that he is indeed worthy of his reputation."
Tian Lin was stunned and felt the coldness in the young man's tone.
Zhou Mengjiao on the side also frowned and glanced at her husband coldly.
She brought her husband here this time, obviously wanting her husband to be closer to Tian Lin.
It’s a pity that her husband didn’t seem to appreciate it. Her tone was so cold that she wanted to slap her husband on the spot.
"I still have some mundane things to deal with at home, so I won't stay here for long."
Zhou Mengjiao, who originally wanted to introduce her husband into Tian Lin's circle, changed her plan and decided to take her disobedient husband back first, so as to avoid not being able to make friends with Tian Lin in the end, but causing the two sides to become enemies.
Tian Lin nodded and watched the couple leave. Finally, he said to Yu'er who came forward to collect the tea, "Junior Sister Zhou's husband, did you have a conflict with me before?"
Yu'er shook her head and said, "I heard that Miss Zhou's husband had only been in the sect for a few years. At that time, we were all in Beiye County, so we should have had no contact with her husband."
"For no reason, he seems to be hostile to me? Could it be because of Miss Wang?"
After Wang Yanyu severed her relationship with the Wang family, Tian Lin was not sure how the Wang family viewed Wang Yanyu.
But even if the Wang family regards Wang Yanyu as a disgrace, there is no reason for them to hate her as well.
You must know that it was not Tian Lin who instigated Wang Yanyu to break off relations with the Wang family.
Besides, Tian Lin and Wang Yanyu can only be regarded as friends, and there is no other unclear relationship. Therefore, this Wang family member has no reason to be hostile to him.
"Why would the master care about a disciple who climbed up to the inner sect by relying on Miss Zhou?" Cui'er said, "Since the master doesn't like him, just don't allow him to come to the sect in the future."
Tian Lin nodded, and then said to Yu'er: "Prepare some gifts, and then take my visiting card out of the sect and drop it off at Senior Brother Ju's house, and tell them that I will come to visit you tomorrow."
Yu Er frowned and said, "Mr. Ju's mansion is no longer under the control of Mr. Ju, but has become Miss Tang's territory. If we come to visit him, I'm afraid that—"
"You reminded me—"
Tian Lin said, "Just find an outer disciple and give him the business card for Senior Brother Ju to deliver on your behalf. If it is inconvenient for me to visit Senior Brother Ju's family, I'm sure Senior Brother Ju will give you an explanation."
Ju Yunhai was injured, and his injury was related to Tian Lin and Mei Xiangu.
After all, it is impossible for Tian Lin to ignore it.
Tian Lin was not afraid of Tang Chuchu, but in order to avoid embarrassing Ju Yunhai and causing more harm to him, he decided to find an outsider to test the waters.
Soon, Yu'er took the order and left, leaving Tian Lin and Cui'er alone. I don't know where Mei Xiangu heard the news from, but she quickly ran to Tian Lin and said, "I heard that Ju Yunhai became Tang Zhi's disciple. Now, the three of us who went out to do the mission together have all become true disciples."
Seeing the smile on Mei Xiangu's face, Tian Lin couldn't help but smile too.
It was ridiculous, but Tian Lin couldn't help but say, "The quota for the true disciple is so precious. I heard that Elder Tang Zhi's own son is only an inner disciple——"
He looked at Mei Xiangu and asked her, "Do you believe that there are such upright and selfless people in this world?"
Mei Xiangu frowned, "I didn't believe there were such upright people in the world. But since I killed Tang Zhi's eldest son, and then you killed Tang Zhi's wife, this Elder Tang has never complained about us. On the contrary, I was able to become a true disciple because of his help."
Logically, when evaluating a person, one should always look at his actions rather than his heart.
Judging from the results, Tang Zhi deserves the title of saint.
But Tian Lin didn’t really believe that there were saints in this world. Besides, even if there was a saint, it would be difficult for him to treat the enemy who killed his son or wife calmly, right?
"If Tang Zhi is really a saint, then I wish him to eventually become a god after his Nascent Soul stage. If he is pretending to be a saint, I hope he can pretend to be a saint for the rest of his life."
Tian Lin couldn't see through Tang Zhi, so he simply stopped thinking about it.
At least, Tang Zhi accepted Ju Yunhai as his true disciple, even if he had selfish motives, it was still an opportunity for Ju Yunhai.
This opportunity to become a true disciple may only come once in Ju Yunhai's life.
-
"In spiritual practice, many opportunities only come once in a lifetime."
It was still Ju Yunhai's cave, but the one who took care of Ju Yunhai was not Tang Chuchu, but the "irrelevant" person Tang Zhi.
While he was wrapping Ju Yunhai's legs, he continued to speak: "Once you miss an opportunity, it is almost impossible to recover it. Now I am giving you a chance to become my true disciple. Are you willing to be my disciple?"
Of course Ju Yunhai wanted to become a true disciple, but he did not agree directly.
He endured the pain in his leg and said, "If I become the elder's disciple, what would the elder want me to do for you?"
Tang Zhi smiled and asked Ju Yunhai, "What do you think you can do for me with your cultivation and strength?"
Ju Yunhai, who is at the Jindan level, cannot compare to Tang Zhi in terms of strength, background, and talent.
Logically, it seemed that he really had nothing to give Tang Zhi.
But Ju Yunhai, like Tian Lin, did not believe that there was love without reason in this world, nor did he believe that Tang Zhi would give himself the opportunity to become a true disciple just to apologize to his son.
"I can harm Tian Lin for you, I can harm Mei Xiangu for you—"
Tang Zhi looked at Ju Yunhai and said, "Then let me ask you, if I ask you to help kill Tian Lin and Mei Xiangu in exchange for my promise to take you as my disciple, are you willing to do it?"
Ju Yunhai shook his head decisively: "Tian Lin and I are brothers. He has never been unjust to me, so I cannot be unkind to him."
"Even if it means losing the chance to become a true disciple? I've said before that once you miss some opportunities in your life, you may not be able to get them back in your next life.
If you were a true disciple, would your uncles and aunts still dare to treat you recklessly? If you were a true disciple, would other disciples dare to laugh at you in person? If you were a true disciple and had strength, would Tang Chuchu still dare to cuckold you? "
Ju Yunhai's face flushed, and it was obvious that Tang Zhi's words had stirred his emotions. Those embarrassing past events made him very angry now.
But after a while, he gritted his teeth and said, "Even if I miss the chance to become a true disciple, I will never betray my friends or hurt my relatives."
