This feeling of gaining and losing again made me extremely happy!
I was overjoyed. The most important thing was that not only did Curator Du return the beast pellet, he also wanted to give me a high-ranked martial art. In my situation, even if he took all the rewards, I could only suffer in silence.
But now, it seemed that Curator Du was really generous. Just because I was pleasing to the eye, he didn't tell me all these things and he still gave me a lot of things. Luckily, I hadn't stopped him from reinforcing the seal. Otherwise, the situation would have been completely different. I was glad that I had made the right choice. At the same time, I was grateful that I had met such a good person like Curator Du.
From the looks of it, he probably wouldn't reveal this information to the public. If he did, I would become a rat on the street that everyone wanted to beat up. To be honest, my mental endurance hadn't reached that level yet. Even if I had thought about it before, it didn't mean that I had the courage to face it.
Moreover, if it weren't for this conversation, I might have lost my life a year later if I wasn't careful. That would be a real tragedy. Facing an unknown death and being mentally prepared for it were two completely different things.
Just like his cousin, he got into a car accident all of a sudden. Even though it was premeditated, he didn't even have time to make a will before he died. The latter was probably the suffering of cancer patients.
I couldn't help but admit that a year's time was very short, especially for a martial artist. It was possible to be complacent and satisfied by advancing a small realm. But for me, if I wanted to live, I could only stake everything on one throw. I couldn't rely on the Blood Demon's power. This was a very big challenge. I was really worried that the next time I was tempted by him, I would fall into his trap. If that happened, even the gods wouldn't be able to save me.
Then, I followed Curator Du to a study room. The room wasn't big, and there was half a cup of tea on the table. It seemed that Curator Du often worked here. Then, I felt an invisible wave of energy. With a creaking sound, the bookshelf on my right slowly moved!
It turned out there was a secret chamber next to us. I gawked and dropped my jaw. Curator Du must have used his energy. I didn't even know where to activate the mechanism.
He brought me into the hidden secret room. Unexpectedly, it was spacious inside. There wasn't a pile of gold, silver, jewels, or martial arts manuals that I had imagined … Instead, there was a floating stone tablet. The surface of the tablet was covered with simple and unadorned veined patterns, giving off a feeling that it had been around for a long time.
There was also a meditation mat next to him. "Sit there. What you can gain from this will depend on your luck." Curator Du looked at me with a meaningful look.
F * ck, so it wasn't him who chose the intermediate and high level martial arts, nor was it me who chose it. Instead, he used this method to comprehend it. I nodded and thanked him again. Afterwards, Curator Du left.
I sat on the cushion. Soon, a gentle light shone at me. I couldn't help but close my eyes.
At this time, the Blood Demon in my Dantian kept shouting. "Little guy, don't listen to that old thing's nonsense. There's no such thing as not being able to live past 20 years old. He's just tricking you. He just wants to hinder your growth. He's afraid that one day, your strength will surpass him. Do you understand?
Moreover, things like fate are completely illusory. I like your temper. "
"That's enough, Senior. I know who is right and who is wrong. I don't need you to tell me what to do."
It was obvious that the Blood Demon was trying to sow discord. The existence of such a thing was not conducive to my growth.
"Damn it, you've grown up, haven't you?
I'll lend you a helping hand and let you be in the limelight. You'll be able to win a beauty's heart and your strength will advance by leaps and bounds in a single day. Yet, you're already burning the bridge after crossing the river. Do you need to be so disgusting? "The Blood Demon cursed in a flustered and exasperated manner. Perhaps it was because of the game he had with Du Hongchen, but he looked a little embarrassed.
I was a little speechless. Speaking of which, any martial artist would be willing to pay the price for today's success. As for me, after I realized how terrifying the Blood Demon was, I really wanted to distance myself from him. The reason why Du Hongchen didn't kill the Blood Demon was because he didn't want to destroy me. Moreover, the Blood Demon also had good resistance. If we were to fight to the death, Du Hongchen wouldn't necessarily be able to gain an advantage.
Therefore, after considering many aspects, he still wanted to give me more than a year. If I couldn't become a Hua Jin Master before the age of 20 years old, the Blood Demon and I would both cease to exist. At that time, he wouldn't show any mercy. This was the quality that a superior needed to possess. He could smile at me, but when it came to the righteous cause of the martial arts world, he would also stand out to uphold justice!
Speaking of which, fate was completely in my hands. Whether or not I could fight for the hope of survival, it all depended on me.
"Hehe, Senior, you don't have to say anymore. Although I've obtained a lot, a lot of things have always been led by the nose by you." I coldly smiled and didn't pay attention to him.
Now was the time to comprehend martial arts. I just wanted to obtain a miraculous and powerful high-level martial art like the Yi Jin Jing. Although I was a little greedy, I just wanted to try my best to obtain it.
After a while, a scene appeared in my mind.
In the scene, there was a young man with a head full of red hair. His face had a cruel and ferocious expression. There were dozens of people with good strength, and they seemed to want to stop him. In the end, they ended up fighting each other. This kind of violent fighting scene made me dumbfounded. It was much more realistic than any 3D blockbuster, as if I was one of the people involved.
The most annoying thing was that they didn't seem to be able to see me …
Not long after, dozens of corpses were lying on the ground in disorder. Each and every one of them had died miserably. The young man shook his head. "A group of ignorant ants. You want to stop me from killing?
You're simply too stupid! "
After saying that, he extended his hand. Soon, the blood on the corpses flowed into the young man's palm at a speed visible to the naked eye. He absorbed all the blood, and the corpses turned into zombies.
"Wu wu."
At this time, the sound of a child crying came from a house not far away. The young man walked over step by step.
"Little sister, run. I'll stop him."
A little boy, who was about ten years old, rushed in and pounced on the young man. He kept hitting and biting him. However, the little boy's strength was completely insignificant. The young man grabbed the top of his head. The little boy's body began to tremble, and his eyes became empty. On the other hand, the young man revealed a satisfied expression.
Not long after, the little boy became an empty bag of skin, and was thrown on the ground. His little sister naturally couldn't escape this calamity.
"Don't kill him!"
I almost shouted, but the young man acted as if he didn't hear me. He used the same method to deal with the other little girl.
In the end, he slowly raised his head and revealed an evil smile. His eyes met mine.
