Chapter 499 The Difference Between Spirituality and the Demonic Characteristics (2/2)

”I know what you want to ask. Do you want to say that if the lamb left and found a richer grassland, or that it snatched the grassland which the other lamb was grazing on, it could still consume in an unrestricted manner? In other worlds, if one has the supreme power, there is no need to worry too much. One can do whatever one desires, like your uncle, Emperor Xia. As long as he wants to do it, there is no restriction that says he can't.” Shen Lian replied slowly, and the answer was exactly what Lei Jing was thinking about.

The worldview she had constructed for the past ten years would not change just because of what Shen Lian said.

Furthermore, the reason why Xia Kingdom could be the unrestricted lamb was that they were more powerful than others. If anything was lacking, they could just snatch it from someone else.

The fittest survived, it was the law of nature.

Lei Jing nodded, and she paid close attention to Shen Lian's reaction.

Shen Lian's expression was like normal. It did not seem like he had any dissatisfactions with her. Perhaps he was not happy, but as he did not show it, she would not change her mind now.

She spoke softly, ”So sir, you think that the Xia clan has demonic characteristics?”

Shen Lian smiled, ”I did not say that. You should take care of the three wooden knives, and next, I will teach you another skill.” It was difficult to change someone's opinion. Even though Shen Lian could make use of Daoist techniques to force someone to change his or her worldview since young, but what was that different from Yanxu? If he always just wanted others to be just like him, the world would be a tremendously boring place.

Lei Jing was curious, ”Sir, are you going to teach me supernatural techniques? I have no mana yet.”

Shen Lian looked at her slightly curled and long eyelashes. Her eyes were more active than the flow of water. He thought to himself that this lady was blessed by the creator. He said, ”Even though you're a woman, in your body flows the noble blood of the Xia clan, and hence you have power. I will teach you how to carve next.”

Lei Jing thought carving was more interesting than breathing. She said, ”Sure, what will you teach me to carve?”

Shen Lian said, ”There are twenty days to a full moon, and it is the Moon Sacrificial Ritual of Xia Kingdom. Emperor Xia will have a palace's feast that day. Try using the three wooden knives to make a stone sculpture that looks like your uncle, but don't carve the eyes. I will be guiding you until I am satisfied with the stone sculpture.”

Lei Jing became more interested as she listened to what Shen Lian said, if uncle saw that she carved him into a stone sculpture, he would surely be surprised during the palace's feast.

She had some hesitations about carving a stone, but if sir wanted her to do it, even if he did some tricks, it would be hard to deceive her. If that was the case, she would let Guan Longzi have a look first.

Although this person always acted like a sage, but Lei Jing knew clearly that he would not betray her uncle.
