"Scholar Bro, thank you for reminding me."”Niu Tianyun bowed deeply to Li Chen as he spoke. His expression was solemn, but there was a sense of relief on his face.
Niu Village was his root, a place he had to protect for the rest of his life, but it was also a burden that weighed down on his heart. For more than 20 years, it was like walking on thin ice. He had smoothed out his edges and was no longer hot-blooded.
At this moment, the long-lost passion was aroused, and his entire person became different. With his Tier Eight Warrior cultivation, he exuded an oppressive aura that was as terrifying as a human-shaped weapon.
The other three were also boiling with blood. Li Chen died for martial arts without regrets, so what did they have to fear?
Li Chen did not expect that his disheartened struggle would wake up the four of them, making their martial hearts even stronger. This could be considered an unexpected good deed.
After sitting down again, Niu Tianyun thought for a while and said,"When Master left twenty years ago, he said that he did not want me to look for him. If it was a matter of life and death, I would leave his special mark on the wall of the capital city. At that time, someone would inform him."
Niu Tianyun had said a lot. From his words, the few of them understood that this grandmaster was an expert who had a wild personality and was playful.
According to Niu Tianyun's words, why was the Dharma so powerful? Even now, he could not guess how powerful his master was. Niu Tianyun's Martial Artist Level Eight cultivation was hard to guess, so this grandmaster must be at least a Connate Martial Master, or even higher.
Niu Tianyun obviously respected the martial artist who taught him martial arts. When he spoke of his teacher, his face was full of admiration.
At this moment, Niu Wen interrupted and said in puzzlement,"Village Chief, since you have a way to find Grandmaster, why would you rather wait for twenty years without contacting him?”
Yeah? The few of them were also puzzled. The village chief's actions made them very puzzled. He clearly had a way to find his grandmaster, so why did he have to struggle for twenty years? If Li Chen hadn't appeared, he might have had to wait for an unknown number of years.
For example, Niu Tianyun had been stuck at Tier Seven Warrior for ten years. If he had a follow-up technique ten years ago, it would not be impossible for him to break through to Xiantian Master with his aptitude.
How many twenty years could a martial artist waste?
The few of them could not understand. They had personally seen their village chief stagnate for ten years. For the first time in their lives, they felt that the village chief had done too much wrong. It was not worth it to waste ten years of his life.
Only Li Chen was deep in thought. He heard the village chief say that he was not allowed to look for his master unless it was a matter of life and death. Could there be something hidden?
Looking at the excited trio, Niu Tianyun smiled bitterly and said in a desolate voice,""It's all my fault. I'm useless.“
"Master said that his disciple should be an indomitable spirit and a peerless figure who could dominate the world. If she couldn't even overcome this difficulty, what qualifications did she have to become his disciple?
Master said that one day, he would come to find me instead of me, which meant that I could officially enter his sect after receiving his recognition.
But twenty years have passed. If it wasn't for Scholar Bro's arrival, I would still be unable to do anything about it.”
As he said that, the eyes of the dignified nine-foot-tall man actually turned red. One could imagine how painful his heart was and how much pressure he was under.
Niu Tiehan and Niu Wen were stunned. At first, they could not believe it. Then, their eyes turned red, and their throats became hoarse as if there was a fish bone stuck in them.
At this moment, they understood that the Niu Family Village had been built by the Village Chief. They were the ones who implicated the village chief. They were the ones who tied the village chief's heart. They were the ones who implicated the village chief.
Village Chief had buried this secret for 20 years. How painful must he have been? He had not married or had children until now. He had devoted all his energy to martial arts, but he still did not have the face to face his master. How great a blow was this to him? Thinking of this, the three of them felt as if their hearts were pricked by needles. They felt ashamed for blaming the village chief in their hearts just now.
Bang! Bang!
The two brothers fell to their knees heavily.
" Village Chief, I'm sorry, I…" The two of them choked. The village chief was already a god in their hearts. When they knew that the village chief had silently contributed, how could they not be grateful?
Niu Tiehan's voice was hoarse and his eyes were filled with tears. It was very difficult for him to hold back his tears. "Village chief, it's been hard on you. We've implicated you.”
"Get up, children, get up." Niu Tianyun helped the two of them up and grabbed their hands. He could no longer hold back his tears."As long as you can become talented, it will be worth it for Village Chief to suffer.”
He was very satisfied with the two brothers, especially Niu Wu, who gave him hope. Now, all his dreams were focused on the younger generation. As long as the younger generation could rise, he would have no regrets even if he died.
Niu Tianyun smiled gratefully and looked at the three of them. He said firmly,""Everything is for our clansmen."
There was no need for too many reasons. These three words were enough. The three of them nodded heavily and shouted,"Everything is for our clansmen."
This was a great moment, a moment that shook everyone's hearts. At least, that was what Li Chen, the only audience member, thought. The selflessness and dedication of the four shocked him. Their pure hearts moved him.
" Perhaps dedication is the foundation of their survival in this world.“
Li Chen muttered to himself. At the same time, he felt worried. It was very difficult for him, and his heart was at war.
He knew that Village Chief definitely wanted to stand in front of his master one day and gain his master's recognition. This was what he had dreamed of.
However, because of him, he gave up. He gave up the opportunity to stand in front of his master openly and give up the opportunity to become his master's disciple.
Li Chen was truly touched. He understood that Niu Tianyun was sincere. He didn't think that he could do this for others. Especially someone who was relatively unimportant.
This was because they had learned almost all of Li Chen's words and could easily read books. On the contrary, Li Chen did not have much value anymore and could be completely abandoned.
However, they did not do so. They respected him as usual and put in a lot of effort for their own matters. Now, Village Chief had even given up on his long-cherished wish to fulfill his wish.
Li Chen was very touched, but he felt that he could not be so selfish. This made him feel a strong sense of guilt. His father had taught him for many years. He was also a person who adhered to his principles. He would never use the pain of others to exchange for his own happiness. Moreover, this person was someone he respected very much.
I'd better go and look for opportunities on my own. With my Tendon Changing Classic's strength comparable to a Tier Eight Warrior, I don't believe that I won't be able to find any elixirs and sink into oblivion forever.
Thinking of this, Li Chen inexplicably heaved a sigh of relief, and the suppressed heroic spirit also rose.
"Village chief, thank you. I appreciate your kindness. But I can't accept it. I can't do it. If I do that, I'll feel guilty for the rest of my life. It'll become my inner demon.”Shaking his head, Li Chen looked at Niu Tianyun with a determined expression.
The four of them understood. Niu Tianyun smiled bitterly and shook his head. Li Chen had made it very clear that he did not want to owe him a favor.
At this moment, Li Chen's expression was so determined, and his eyes were so determined. The three of them knew that it was impossible to dissuade Li Chen from agreeing. They knew that Li Chen's principles made it impossible for him to do such a thing.
Other than Niu Tianyun who smiled bitterly, the other three looked conflicted and hesitated to speak. They really wanted Scholar to realize his dream, and they didn't want their beloved village chief to sink into oblivion. They had fallen into a dilemma.
Niu Tianyun looked at Li Chen seriously as if he was meeting him for the first time. After a while, he suddenly smiled and said,"There's no need to blame yourself, scholar brother. Even if it wasn't because of you, this old master still planned to find Shizun. It was because of you that I delayed this plan.”
Shaking his head, he ignored the puzzled faces of the four and continued,"I've cultivated for twenty years. Although I don't think I'm inferior to others, I know my limits. Compared to Awu and you, Brother Scholar, your talent is far too lacking. Moreover, you juniors are all tenacious people at such a young age. No matter how hard I work, my future achievements will be limited.
However, the lives of the three of you have just begun. The Niu Family Village is too small, and I can't teach you. You need a bigger sky, and you need a great teacher to teach you.
The Niu Family Village will only bury your talent, so after much consideration, I've decided to find Master and send you to him.”
Taking a deep breath, Niu Tianyun secretly wiped his reddened eyes and chuckled."This old master has been mediocre all my life, but this old master has a good eye for people. If the three of you become successful, it will be the greatest gratification in this old master's life.”
Niu Tianyun stopped Niu Wen, who was about to kneel down again, and shook his head. He smiled kindly and said,"I know what you are thinking. Children, go and adventure. The sky outside is your world. Don't be burdened, Niu Family Village is protected by us old fellows.”
"Scholar bro, don't worry, I'll do it for Awen and Awu. Because everything is for the clan."
Niu Tianyun turned to look at the conflicted Li Chen and spoke softly. His tone was gentle, but the few of them felt that it was as heavy as a mountain and as powerful as the earth.
Li Chen smiled brightly, revealing his pearly white teeth.""There is no way to repay the kindness of the village chief. From today onwards, I, Li Chen, am a part of the Niu Family Village.”
It would be unnecessary to say anything else. He could not repay the care of the village chiefs in this life. A drop of kindness should be repaid with a spring. He had always remembered the teachings of his father. At this moment, he had truly integrated into this group of people.
After Li Chen finished speaking, the four of them were stunned. Then, Niu Tianyun and Niu Tiehan, who understood, smiled. Niu Wen and Niu Wu were even more ecstatic.
Three months ago, Niu Wen had said that Li Chen was a person who valued relationships and loyalty. As long as he treated him well, he would be grateful. At that time, he did not believe that Li Chen would agree to join the Niu Family Village. He did not expect Niu Wen's words to come true.
Niu Tiehan laughed out loud and patted Li Chen's shoulder.
"Haha, you're very welcome. " Hearing this, Niu Tianyun laughed loudly." Thank you for thinking so highly of us, Senior Scholar. Alright, we'll hold a clan meeting tomorrow to worship our ancestors and enter the genealogy under Li Chen's name.“
Does Brother Scholar have any objections to this arrangement?”Niu Tianyun continued. He seemed very happy.
Li Chen nodded heavily in agreement. The care of his family made him reluctant to leave.
