Chapter 1474 - 1407: Paving My Own Path

"Is that so?"

Qin Feiyang was taken aback.

He couldn't quite remember those things.

"These are all things from childhood, you surely don't remember, but that's not important, as long as you're home now."

"Everyone here is your family."

"Even though all these years we haven't been able to help you much, in our hearts, we've always been thinking about you and your mother."

People said.

Qin Feiyang gazed at the unfamiliar faces in front of him.

Though unfamiliar, the blood ties felt profound and inseparable.

His heart couldn't help but tremble.

His eyes couldn't help but grow moist.

Because in this world, there are such lovely people, thinking of him, caring about him.

"Feiyang, greet the grandpas, grandmas, uncles, and aunts."

"Also, on behalf of your mother, extend her regards to everyone."

Qin Feiyang knelt on the ground and bowed.

"Good, good, good."

"Child, get up quickly."

"From now on, this is your home, come back whenever you want."

"We won't treat you as an outsider, you shouldn't treat us as outsiders either."

Several elders nodded with gratification, stepped forward, and personally helped Qin Feiyang up, their old eyes also filled with mist.

Especially when thinking of what Qin Feiyang had gone through over the years, they couldn't help but feel a pang of sorrow.

"Never."

"You will always be Feiyang's family."

Qin Feiyang said with a smile.

Some women and elders quietly watched Qin Feiyang, all smiling through tears at this moment.

"Mom, why are you crying?"

A child of five or six years old asked, puzzled by seeing his mother.

"Mommy isn't crying, mommy is happy."

The child's mother replied.

At this moment.

The crowd gradually dispersed, and Second Granduncle walked over step by step, stopping in front of Qin Feiyang.

Qin Feiyang looked at Second Granduncle.

Second Granduncle also looked at Qin Feiyang.

Neither spoke.

At this moment, the village seemed particularly quiet.

After who knows how long, Qin Feiyang stepped forward, knelt before Second Granduncle, and said, "Unfilial grandson Qin Feiyang, greets Second Granduncle."

"Unfilial..."

Second Granduncle murmured to himself, his old face gradually filled with guilt, reaching out to help Qin Feiyang up.

"Child, how can you talk about yourself like that?"

"For your mother's sake, you even disregarded your own life. Can anyone in this world be more filial than you?"

"It's Second Granduncle who should be apologizing to you."

Second Granduncle sighed, his face full of self-blame.

"No, no, no."

"You have nothing to apologize for, neither the Luk Family nor anyone owes me. Those who wronged me are the emperor, Emperor Hong, and those in the imperial palace whom I once considered family."

Qin Feiyang said.

Everyone was silent.

It was clear that Qin Feiyang harbored deep resentment towards the people of the imperial palace.

"Child, now that you're here, there's no need to think about so many things anymore."

"Indeed!"

"Here with us, there's no fighting, no scheming. You can take this chance to relax."

Several elders said with a smile.

"Alright."

Qin Feiyang nodded.

"Alright then, everyone, let's get ready."

"It's not easy for Feiyang to return, we should celebrate properly."

"Agreed."

The people quickly dispersed.

Women of each household began to busy themselves.

Witnessing this scene, Qin Feiyang's heart felt especially warm, and he smiled, "It feels wonderful to have family."

Hearing this, Second Granduncle felt even more guilty.

And very regretful.

Why did he hesitate so much, not bringing Qin Feiyang to the Luk Family earlier? Letting him suffer so much outside.

Qin Feiyang said with a smile, "Second Granduncle, take me for a tour!"

"Okay."

Second Granduncle nodded.

"Our village has only about a thousand households in total, including the elderly and children, over five thousand people..."

"But, don't underestimate everyone."

"Because among these five thousand people, half of them possess War Emperor cultivation..."

"More than a thousand are Nine-Star War Emperors."

"Moreover, the guardian beasts within ten thousand miles of the village are all raised by our Luk Family."

"Nine-Star Emperor Beasts, if not ten thousand, at least eight thousand."

"As for One-Star to Eight-Star Emperor Beasts, there are so many that they can't be counted..."

Second Granduncle said, leading Qin Feiyang on a walk around the village while smiling.

"What?"

Qin Feiyang was stunned.

More than a thousand Nine-Star War Emperors is already astonishing, and there are so many Nine-Star Emperor Beasts?

If not ten thousand, at least eight thousand!

My God!

What does this mean?

In the ancient tower, there were only eighty or ninety Nine-Star Emperor Beasts.

Originally more than one hundred, but many perished in the Sea of Reincarnation, fighting descendants of the State Preceptor.

As for Nine-Star War Emperors, there were only eighteen led by Wang Yangfeng. Although they have now reached the pinnacle of Nine-Star War Emperor, compared to the Luk Family, it is truly insignificant.

Qin Feiyang asked, "How many are at the pinnacle of Nine-Star War Emperor?"

"There seem to be two or three hundred."

"Those elderly folks who spoke to you earlier, their cultivation is at the pinnacle of Nine-Star War Emperor."

Second Granduncle said with a smile.

Qin Feiyang secretly clicked his tongue.

No wonder he couldn't sense the slightest aura from those elderly people earlier.

"Our Luk family members actually don't care much about cultivation, as long as everyone can live together, meet every day, and be happy,"

Second Grandpa said.

"When will my mother and I be able to be like you?"

"Alas!"

Qin Feiyang sighed lowly.

Second Grandpa stopped walking, turned to look at Qin Feiyang, and said with a smile, "Don't force things too much, let them be. Your obsession is too deep right now and it might hinder you from becoming a god in the future."

"What exactly does it take to become a god?"

Qin Feiyang asked.

"Let go of everything, return to the original intention and true heart, that is the Mystery of becoming a god."

"Actually, it's not difficult to say, but not easy either."

"It all depends on one's state of mind."

"With your talent, you will step into the peak of the Nine-Star War Emperor sooner or later, so letting go of obsession is what you should do most now."

Second Grandpa said.

"Let go of obsession..."

Qin Feiyang murmured, shaking his head, "Obsession is already deeply rooted; how can it be let go just like that? Moreover, it's precisely because the obsession is too deep that a Heart Demon was born."

Second Grandpa lightly sighed, "The appearance of the Heart Demon has actually already destined your fate."

"What fate?"

Qin Feiyang was puzzled.

"Unable to become a god."

"Because the Heart Demon is the source of all obsession, where there is the Heart Demon, there is obsession."

"Unless you can sever the Heart Demon."

Second Grandpa said.

"Sever the Heart Demon!"

Qin Feiyang's gaze trembled.

In his inner world, hearing this, the Heart Demon's body also couldn't help but tremble, saying, "Master, we have fought side by side for so many years, you can't be so heartless!"

Qin Feiyang shook his head with a smile, secretly reassuring, "Don't worry, as long as I am here, you will always exist."

Hearing this, the Heart Demon finally breathed a sigh of relief.

Qin Feiyang asked, "Second Grandpa, besides severing the obsession, is there any other way to become a god?"

"No."

Second Grandpa shook his head.

"Since one must sever the obsession to become a god, then why can ambitious people like the State Preceptor and Mu Changfeng also become gods?"

Qin Feiyang frowned.

"Becoming a god doesn't necessarily mean being pure-hearted and desireless."

"Take me, for instance."

"Don't be fooled by how relaxed and free I appear now, but I also have obsessions and desires."

"However, when comprehending the Mystery of becoming a god, we must first let go of these things."

"It is a very difficult process."

"Some people won't achieve it in their entire lifetime."

Second Grandpa said.

"I see now."

Qin Feiyang nodded in understanding.

"Regarding your matter, I don't want to say more, nor do I have the qualification to say more."

"However, I have heard from Luk Zheng about your relationship with the Heart Demon, you must make a choice if you want to become a god."

Second Grandpa said solemnly.

"Choice..."

Qin Feiyang looked up towards the sky, saying, "I won't let go of obsession, nor will I sever the Heart Demon, but I won't give up becoming a god either."

At this moment, his gaze was incredibly profound, as if it could pierce through time and space, peering into the lofty heavens.

"How will you become a god without eliminating the Heart Demon?"

Second Grandpa frowned.

"There will always be a way."

"If there really isn't, then I'll carve out a cultivation path that belongs to me alone!"

Qin Feiyang clenched his fists, his eyes shooting forth dazzling gleams of light.

"To blaze a trail of cultivation of one's own!"

Second Grandpa's body and mind trembled.

What immense confidence and courage must one have to dare to say such words?

He looked at Qin Feiyang at this time.

Feeling that slender figure, as if a supreme domineering aura was quietly being born.

"Can it really be done?"

Second Grandpa muttered in his heart, calming his inner turmoil, he laughed, "To open a path of cultivation of one's own is innumerably more difficult than comprehending the Mystery of becoming a god, from ancient times till now, no one has ever done it, but I am quite looking forward to it."

Qin Feiyang smiled, not continuing the discussion.

The group of children always stayed by Qin Feiyang and Second Grandpa's side, looking at Qin Feiyang with big curious eyes.

Qin Feiyang looked at them, although these children were young, he observed that each one possessed extraordinary talent; unless something unexpected happens, they will surely become the prodigies of Great Qin in the future.

A snotty-nosed child ran to Second Grandpa's side, asking, "Second Grandpa, is he the Qin Feiyang you wanted to tell us about just now?"

"Yes!"

Second Grandpa nodded.

The snotty-nosed child glanced at Qin Feiyang and said, "Doesn't look that impressive!"

"Yeah!"

"I thought it was some amazing person, turns out it's no big deal!"

Other children nodded in agreement.

"Uh!"

Qin Feiyang was stunned.

Was he actually despised by a group of little kids?

"Not convinced?"

"If you have the skills, compare yourself with Brother Luk Zheng, I feel you're far worse than Brother Luk Zheng."

The snotty-nosed child shouted.

For a moment, Qin Feiyang also felt playful, teasing, "Little kid, your Brother Luk Zheng is currently reflecting on his mistakes at Devil's Cliff."

"What?"

"Devil's Cliff!"

Upon hearing the words Devil's Cliff, all the children turned pale with fear.

The snotty-nosed child suspiciously asked, "Did Brother Zheng do something wrong to make him reflect at Devil's Cliff?"

"He didn't do anything wrong, I just played a little trick to make him go there and reflect."

"Now tell me, who is actually more impressive, me or your Brother Luk Zheng?"

Qin Feiyang said.
