Seeking the Tao in the Mortal World

Chapter 88: Desires Lead to Attachment

Qin Yi was very embarrassed, “I also think this is strange. It’s impossible that no one guards for her…”

“Even if no one is guarding her, she only needs to hold the entrance by herself and wait until the last moment to enter. The reason why she wants to let someone guard outside must be to drag the opponent’s main force. She has another ulterior plan. You are being used by her!”

Qin Yi said helplessly, “But there’s nothing we can do about it. I need her help. What else can I do if I don’t agree to defend for her…”

“You need her help, so you are led by the nose by her. You no longer have your aloofness.” Liu Su said coldly, “Never mind if you are leading by the nose, but do you know how many mistakes have you made?”

Qin Yi didn’t say anything. In fact, he knew that he had made many mistakes, all of which were caused by impatience.

When I got there, I asked Sand Eagle. Sand Eagle didn’t know, so I never thought about asking anyone else.

I thought I rushed in with passion, but in fact, I was reckless. I had already lost my calm mind.

“Stick Stick… I was really anxious.” Qin Yi sighed in a low voice, “Seeing that the hope is getting more and more dwindling, my heart is so unbearably depressed. When I got a hope, how could I suppress that momentarily joy?”

“There are extenuating circumstances, but what’s the use of that.” Liu Su said coldly, “Many geniuses have fallen, and most of them are due to extenuating reasons. However, they are already dead. All that remains is a topic of conversation, offering nothing more than a source of lamentation for those left behind.”

Qin Yi did not refute again against criticism.

Liu Su added, “Besides, if it feels difficult after entering, you should leave on the spot. Why are you holding on?”

“Because I think there is hope to get it done in one go. Didn’t you not persuade me to leave…”

“Because it’s not a place where death is imminent, I want to see how much you wanted to die.” Liu Su sneered, “I can take you away at any time anyway, so why not watch how a fool performs.”

“…”

“Forget it.” Liu Su’s mood seemed to be better after venting. She comforted him instead, “You are still young and vigorous. It is not unforgivable to make some mistakes. Just be more careful in the future.”

“Uhm.”

“Having no desires leads to strength.” Liu Su sighed softly, “The original obsession with Dong Huazi was not born of you. You had no desires, so you could look at the South Li Kingdom with a clear mind. Now that you have desires, you will suffer if you can fulfill them. Suffering leads to attachment, and attachment leads to delusion. Before you act impulsively in the future, think about the lesson you learned this time.”

Qin Yi said sincerely, “Thank you for the teaching.”

“Besides, this Shenghuang.” Liu Su paused, “She has been spying on you in Frost Cave.”

Qin Yi was stunned, “What does this mean?”

“I don’t know. In fact, I think she should have Frost Fruit. You don’t need to risk your life. It seems that she is deliberately observing your performance.” Liu Su said, “She seems to particularly appreciate your reckless and stupid look. As soon as you fell into a coma, she appeared immediately. She wholeheartedly took care of you personally when you were comatose for 2 days, which is unbelievable. Is this considered a fool’s blessing? “

Qin Yi’s mouth twitched, “If you say that, I won’t admit my mistake just now…”

“Getting the appreciation of a beastkin is not as important as keeping calm. Don’t put the cart before the horse!” Liu Su began to scold, “The appreciation of a coquettish fox is of no use. Didn’t she use you to defend the arrays?”

Qin Yi smiled and said, “Just a joke, just a joke.”

Liu Su remained silent.

In fact, in this matter… not only Beastkin King appreciates you but me too.

I didn’t persuade Qin Yi to leave Frost Cave, not because I wanted to see a fool’s performance, but because I wanted to see the moment Qin Yi succeeded.

But no matter how much I admire him, I can’t support him openly. Of course, I must ask him to calm down. After all, his life is at stake.

I swear. After I rebuild my body in the future, I will never accept any disciple. It’s so annoying.

…

Shenghuang never showed up again for the next 2 days. It was Ye Ling who took care of Qin Yi.

Qin Yi recovered quickly and was able to walk on the ground.

Frostbite looked horrible. In fact, the power of ice had long since lost its ability to freeze the soul. No matter how severe the injury was, it was just a physical trauma. In this kind of world, physical injuries were the simplest injuries.

Ye Ling then supported Qin Yi and walked slowly in the palace to promote blood circulation and invigorate muscles and bones.

“Brother, Master Sister bullied me.”

“Huh? How?”

“She asked the palace maids to change your clothes and wipe your body. I wanted to see, but she threw me out!”

“I think she did a good job… wait!” Qin Yi’s eyes widened, “She didn’t go out by herself?”

“No!” Ye Ling said angrily, “There were so many palace maids watching! Why could everyone else see it, but I was the only one being thrown out?”

Qin Yi, “……”

“I also heard them saying ‘It is damaged by the freeze, cut it’.” Ye Ling said, “They must be thinking of eating Brother’s meat, so I wanted to break in, but Master beat me.”

Qin Yi looked up at the sky with a look of despair.

“But what Master taught me is so powerful.” Ye Ling said enthusiastically, “Although I haven’t made any progress in my cultivation, I caught up on a lot of things I missed before. Such as training beastkin physique, training talent, and many powerful tactics!”

Qin Yi said, “It’s good that she is teaching you sincerely.”

“Of course. Apart from Brother, Master is the best to me. She let me live in the East Palace. Others said that was where the prince should have lived…”

Qin Yi felt as if his sister had been deceived by others, so he said with a sullen face, “You are so grateful to live in the East Palace? She will have a son sooner or later, and she will not pass the throne to you.”

“It would be great if Brother and Master give birth to a son, then I could go out and play with the baby…” Ye Ling blinked, “Didn’t Master ask you if you want to be the head of the harem? Brother, just agree to it.”

“Go away, little brat. You know nothing.”

“lue lue lue~ Brother’s face is red.”

Qin Yi embarrasedly changed the topic, “Anyway, she taught you for you to fight! If there is a war against the Guo Kingdom or the Ao Kingdom, many will be dead. Even a beastkin general like Eagle Li will die one day. Do you think it’s fun?”

Ye Ling’s excited face froze. She glanced around before whispering, “At that time, I will hide myself. Brother, don’t tell the master, otherwise she will be mad.”

Qin Yi didn’t know what to say.

Ye Ling said happily again, “Master said I can form my own bodyguard and choose my own beastkins, so I want that Hee Hee Beastkin. It’s so cute!”

“At least find some useful personal guards. What’s the point of that 1HP Hee Hee Beastkin?” Qin Yi was dumbfounded, “But that’s fine, just be a playmate. You haven’t had any friends to play with.”

“Yeah, Brother, do you have any other suggestions?”

“I recommend the bar beastkin under General Eagle, the sand eagle under King, and a lemon, plus Hee Hee Beastkin, that will be the 4 heavenly lords of the East Palace Guards. How cool would it be to bring them out for a stroll.”

Ye Ling noted it down with a small notebook. Her big eyes shone with longing.

TL: Ughhh, lemon? It will be a unique achievement at least if she builds such a team…
