Chapter 57: I Control My Fate, Not the Heavens

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

“If the Soul Summoning Ritual is fake, what is Zou Wenrui trying to do?”

Liu Yuan was thinking about this problem on the way and muttered to himself, “If I could kill him directly, I wouldn’t have to go through so much trouble. It’s a pity… that’ll get too many things involved. If Water Moon Dock is in complete chaos because of this, it would instead give that spy from the demonic sect a great opportunity to succeed.”

Liu Yuan also thought that if he had asked Pihuan Luo back then, he might not have to guess … However, at that moment of life and death, how could he still be in the mood to care about this?

“It doesn’t matter. After Pihuan Luo leaves, this spy of the demon sect will be easily fooled by me. I’m afraid of Pihuan Luo, but I’ve never been afraid of this group of people from the demonic sect. As long as I get rid of them, I’ll expose Zou Wenrui in public and beat him up until he has dementia.”

At this moment, Liu Yuan was grinding his fists at the elder, wanting to twist his old face.

However, before that, he had to deal with the spy from the demonic sect.

“There’s no need to disguise this time. Anyway, the demon sect basically doesn’t recognize people by their faces. As long as the spies can trust each other and tacitly know each other’s identity, it’ll be fine.”

Liu Yuan had planned to use the Mirror Moon Jade as a backup, but it was useless in front of Pihuan Luo. He even received a strange evaluation of it: ‘very cute’.

“Forget it, forget it. A good man doesn’t fight with a woman. I’ll just be cute then.” Liu Yuan smiled awkwardly as he looked at the outline of Water Moon Dock below. “The time is just right. Let’s go and find Xue Yan…. He should be in the ordinary disciple’s room on the other side.”

When they came back, Liu Yuan and Ning Xiangrong were on their flying swords. Ma Shu had rented a mount and brought Xue Yan back with him. However, Xue Yan was in a worse state than Ma Shu. She was just a tool and was placed in the Water Moon Dock as a decoration.

Although Liu Yuan had never asked, the Water Moon Dock was the one who first discovered the secret of Chiyu Villa. It was also the Water Moon Dock who planned the plan to target the Xuanwu Secret Treasure. However, the demonic sect’s spies hidden in the Water Moon Dock found out and took advantage of the situation to get involved, hoping to reap the benefits without doing anything.

No one in Water Moon Dock was a good person. They could raise Ning Xiangrong purely because Ning Tingshan protected her very well. He loved his daughter very much.

As for Liu Yuan, he thought that Rongrong was really untainted by the mud.

As for Xue Yan, he was a tool that was destined to be controlled by the Chiyu Villa. After being used by the Water Moon Dock, he was still being used by the demonic sect. It could be said that he was in a very miserable state.

Liu Yuan had given him an opportunity to break free, and he had seized it. He had hidden well and lived up to his experience and name as a protagonist.

However, he was sorry to say that Xue Yan was once again used by a random Mr. Liu.

“My Lightning Manipulation Art has already been cultivated to the sixth minor realm. What Senior said is indeed correct. The early stage of this cultivation method is twice the result with half the effort. Moreover, the lightning power replaces spiritual power and moves through the meridians. Because the human body naturally contains the power of lightning, it is the least suspicious. It is truly wonderful!”

Xue Yan’s heart was burning. He could finally go back and see his childhood sweetheart, Yun’er, and not be a so-called kind disciple on the surface.

“In order to cultivate, I’ve activated the lightning pool in the Jiuyuan mountain range many times. The lightning power will cleanse my body and it has a miraculous effect on repairing my Dantian. It’s miraculous and extraordinary. Although I can use bad luck as an excuse, I can’t hold on for long. I need more different kinds of lightning power!”

Xue Yan was completely convinced by Liu Yuan’s abilities. This cultivation technique was simply too magical, and he was completely captivated by it!

Although it was very painful at the beginning and almost unbearable, he gradually thought that he still had someone he liked and unfinished business. His heart was filled with strength, and he could even ignore the pain!

Sometimes, he would even be struck by lightning until his body twitched, but his heart was filled with joy!

Xue Yan believed that he must have fallen in love with the feeling of rapidly increasing his strength! To have the power to control one’s own fate was such a pleasant thing!

“It’s still early. I can still cultivate one more time and experience the pleasure of being cleansed by the huge power of lightning. Ma Shu said that he would take me to change my fate. He must be the person from the demonic sect that you mentioned. He doesn’t know that my fate has already been changed by you!”

Xue Yan clenched her fists and firmly looked out of the window. “Damned Water Moon Dock, I will definitely be able to regain my freedom!”

“I’m very pleased that you have such positive thoughts.”

The young man’s calm voice suddenly sounded, but it was like thunder in Xue Yan’s ears.

“Senior!”

Xue Yan turned around and saw Liu Yuan standing silently in the middle of the room. He exuded a deep and profound aura, calm and unfathomable.

Liu Yuan smiled indifferently and stood with his hands behind his back. “Yes, Xue Yan. Today is the time for you to change your fate.”

Xue Yan was now a proper Immortal cultivator. If he had any doubts before, now he had 120 percent trust and admiration. When he jumped down from the bed in a meditative position, he prostrated himself on the ground.

“Thank you for your kindness, senior! Xue Yan will never forget it in this life!” Xue Yan’s face was filled with excitement as he repeatedly kowtowed to Liu Yuan.

This gave Student Liu a shock.

Anyone who came would be shocked. When he accepted Gu Chang as his disciple, he only received three kowtows, which was an authentic master-disciple ceremony. However, what Xue Yan did was like he was treating Liu Yuan as ancestor.

However, it was completely understandable. After all, his original life was already bleak. His Dantian was destroyed and he was used as a tool by others. It was not a big deal to use his side, and the other side who was targeted also despised him for being a waste.

Until Liu Yuan’s arrival, who gave him a new chapter in his life. It was not an exaggeration say that he was like a parent.

“Ahem, get up first. You’re a seven-foot-tall man, and there’s gold beneath your knees. How can you kneel at will? I’m just someone you met by chance. What you should really think about are your parents who have never given up on you and care about you. Do you understand?”

Liu Yuan gave him motivation like Chicken Soup for the Soul as soon as he opened his mouth. It was free anyway.

“Besides, what do you cultivate for? It’s for you to stand up straight, and not kneel down like this!”

Xue Yan was stunned for a moment, but his mind cleared up in a split second. It was as if he had been doused with half a bucket of ice and snow water. He quickly stood up and said, “Senior is right! Xue Yan understood! From today on, I, Xue Yan, swear that I will never kneel to anyone in my life, whether on my knees or in my heart!”

Liu Yuan nodded in satisfaction. He had a good comprehension and said, “Ma Shu came to see you, right?”

Xue Yan nodded, “Senior, you are right. Ma Shu came to me and asked me to go to the Moon Reflection Pool at six o’clock today. He tempted me by saying that he could change my fate…”

“My fate is in my hands, not in the hands of the heavens. There’s no need for him to change it!” He sneered.

The corner of Liu Yuan’s mouth twitched. He thought to himself, ‘Wasn’t that how you were tricked back then? Now you have such a backbone.’
