The mentor's cultivation had a problem.

No, not necessarily a problem, it might just be a new path, beyond what I can comprehend.

But compared to other cultivators, the mentor's current state seems problematic, at least, he no longer looks human, something that many including Little Stone cannot accept.

Carrying Little Stone step by step back home, Wang Lin was also contemplating along the way.

Finally.

He came to a conclusion.

"Yeah, a mentor is always a mentor, no matter what he becomes, he will always be my and Little Stone's mentor."

Only heaven knows how hard it is for someone who matured early and faced reality to say something like that.

Because for Wang Lin, it's not just a sentence.

It's a stance.

Since the mentor is always the mentor, if the mentor turns into a demon, then he would become a little demon.

If the mentor decides to feed on people for cultivation in the future, then Wang Lin would help him capture people.

If one day, the mentor is besieged by the Three Great Sacred Lands of the world...

Thinking of this, Wang Lin silently sighed.

"Little Stone, is the mentor good to you?"

"Huh? Senior brother, why would you ask such a silly question, of course, the Liger is awesome to us!"

"And if the mentor is no longer around one day, and his reputation isn't very good, what would you do?"

"How could the Liger's reputation possibly be bad?"

"I'm saying if."

"Senior brother, there's no such if, the Liger is the best Liger in the world, if someone thinks otherwise, it must be that there's something wrong with them, we should make them change their mind."

"..." Wang Lin found it hard to communicate.

Oh, his little junior brother is only a five-year-old child, not the time to concern with such things.

Then nothing.

Then.

"Senior brother, you still didn't say if I'm right!"

"Uh....what if they don't change?"

"Then, then....make them disappear from this world?"

Shi Hao blinked, the innocence of his expression disguising any problem.

Wang Lin: "???"

"Disappear?"

"Yeah, whoever thinks the Liger is bad should disappear, and when only those who think the Liger is a good person are left in the world, won't the problem be solved?"

Wang Lin: "..."

Wang Lin shuddered, dropping his little junior brother, and amidst Little Stone's shouting, fiercely kneaded his own face.

He suddenly thought his little brother made very good sense!

The path of the mentor is undoubtedly not a problem.

If someone thinks the mentor has a problem, then it's they who have the problem!

By the time all those who think there's a problem are resolved, then the mentor, no, then their lineage becomes the mainstream, and those who cultivate unlike their lineage become total heretics!

Wasn't taking them as disciples just for expanding the mentor's doctrinal system?!

Although this logic is such.

Why did this logic come from the little brother's mouth?

What exactly did Shi Hao learn during these secluded years?

...

Shi Hao didn't learn much.

In fact, aside from some issues concerning cultivation techniques, no one taught the little guy anything else, and the people he interacted with were only Chen Zhixing's family, along with Chen Chou'er, Sword Demon Dugu, Snow Soul, Lii Shuang, and some guardians, while outside there was a Snake Spirit who thought the Chen Family restrained their own family too much and was ready to elope with the child.

As for why Shi Hao would comprehend such a rationale.

It's simple.

The environment changes human nature.

Growing up in an environment like Ziwei Mountain, especially within a Noble Family like the Chen Family, for Shi Hao to arrive at such concepts is only natural.

As for the ordinary people's talk of family and country, cultivators' claim to continue the legacy for the benefit of the nation, honor achieved by joining the Three Great Sacred Lands?

Where does this nonsense even make sense?!

Who cares about the survival of the nation and the world, as long as the family is well, that's what's truly good!

This is the standard belief of someone born into a Noble Family, without exception.

The reason being simple.

In the entire world, besides family members who would truly help you with silver and gold, could you find anyone else?

As for propaganda, brainwashing, and baseless accusations, to real noble family scions, that's all bullshit.

You are just a Holy Land, if one perishes there is always the next, and in the next Holy Land as long as the Noble Family still exists, then the Noble Family still forms the decisive upper echelon, so does the fate of a Holy Land have much to do with the Noble Family?

If it perishes, it perishes, what else can be done.

As for the talk of overthrowing the Noble Family.

Don't kid yourself.

The Three Great Sacred Lands command Longevity Masters, the Hundred Schools of Thought control the Peak of the world, in such a climate where people can rival nations, without the support of these people behind you, what's your claim to ruling the world?

As for the Holy Land and the Noble Family turning on each other.

The Holy Land uses the Noble Family to wield control over the world, and you actually think the Holy Land would sever its own limbs.....

Fine, even if the Holy Land is some multi-legged beast, cutting off a few wouldn't matter.

But if a Noble Family is removed, then the power vacuum left would naturally give rise to a new Noble Family, and if no new Noble Family emerges, the consequence would be the original power being annexed by other Noble Families, eventually leading to the strengthening of the Noble Families....this is precisely what the Three Great Sacred Lands most fear!

Therefore, the Holy Lands need the Noble Families, need not-too-powerful families that they can control.

And from the perspective of Noble Families.

Countries can disappear, the world can perish, even other Noble Families can be obliterated, as long as you don't provoke my own clan, without conflicting interests, we remain good friends.
