Chapter 448 Heaven and Earth as One (2/2)
At this moment, even Shen Lian had thought about wanting to leave this world. Since, to be a guest at someone's home would be different to permanently residing in it.
To have this sudden realization was just ridiculous, funny even. He was even curious as to what mood Yan Xu was in now.
The brush continued to shrink, and eventually, it became a normal-sized brush, and it was being held by Song Qingyi. He descended slowly from the sky, and came to the front of Shen Lian. He smiled bitterly and said, ”Senior Apprentice-Brother was right, as soon as I appear, the matter could not remain concealed. Brother Shen mustn't blame me for not telling you this earlier, for I too, had just found out about Master's state in being one with Heaven and earth not long ago.”
Shen Lian smiled and said: ”How could I blame you, after all, you are Lu Jiuyuan's disciple.”
Song Qingyi sighed and said: ”I have always regarded you as a friend. Furthermore, Qixiu also respects you very much.”
”Qingyi, did you know, I have actually always admired you.” Shen Lian looked at him with his hands at his back, his gaze stable and silent.Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click visiting.
Song Qingyi said dejectedly: ”I do not have anything worthy of your admiration. I could not rival in any aspect, this I know. But Shen Lian, you have to believe me, even if I am a little jealous of you, but should you require my assistance, I will do my best.”
Shen Lian leisurely said: ”I never doubted this, I also believe in our friendship. This is also where I admire you the most. Because you possess a pure essence and a sense of sincerity that would put even me to shame. Believe me, continue to retain your sincere trait, and your future will be broader than that of your senior fellow apprentice Wang Shidao, to step into Confucianism's 'path of sincerity'. This is also where your Master truly values you.”
What Shen Lian said was not a lie. Reaching his point, qualifications and awakening could all be cultivated. He received Chen Jin Chan as his successor, mostly because he has no time and energy to create a descendant like Chen Jin Chan, but also precisely because Chen Jin Chan has similar qualities as Song Qingyi.
Especially the inherent part of human nature, it could never be cultivated, only guided out, just like his natural indifference, and Yan Xu's unrestrained. These are all core qualities, more concrete than gilded
Not everyone possesses these qualities. Those who possess it, some would find it hard to retain.
Song Qingyi's traits are his sincerity. From the time when he tried saving Shen Lian after mistaking that Shen Lian was in distress, to the time when he used the life-saving item given by Lu Jiuyuan to inquire about Huike's whereabouts without any hesitation.
Whether it was many years ago or many years later, Song Qingyi's sincerity in dealing with Shen Lian is always the same.
Shen Lian knew that he could not be as honest and consistent as Song Qingyi.
This is a beautiful aspect of human nature. Even if Shen Lian can't do it, he admired it.
Song Qingyi was incomprehensible at this time. He could also feel that Shen Lian had not perfunctored him, and he could not even think of fortune's favored child as he had such a high appraisal.
He also asserted that he would have a far greater future than Master Wenshi, a gentle and humble master.
”What a good and touching friendship. Shen Lian, oh Shen Lian, you are so sentient. After I defeat you, I will kill all the people you are close to, to accompany you. Then you will not be lonely.”
The faint words, with the source of the sounds unknown, it disappeared.
