Kapitel 27: Chapter: 26
'What is your wisdom, portable loli?'
With her hands crossed above her chest, Jasmine looked down at Yun Che.
"Why do you want to choose a heavy sword for your weapon?"
'Because I want the Great Way of Buddha…' Is what he wanted to say but he couldn't.
Instead, his max [Acting] skill unconsciously kicked in.
A soft gentle smile formed over his face, looking at Jasmine with incomparable gentleness.
His looks startled Jasmine. She felt a chill crawl down her spine and she almost killed him mistakenly. She took a fearful step backward as Yun Che stated, softly.
"Because I want to protect…"
"STOP! It was this princess's mistake she asked that question! Never had this princess thought you would look so disgusting and creepy! It gave this princess goosebumps!"
"..."
Yun Che felt his lips twitching. He cupped his cheeks and wondered if he really looked that disgusting and creepy.
"But I really want to…" Feeling Jasmine's gaze that seemed to say "she knows him too well to believe his bullshit" made Yun Che cough in embarrassment. Who would have thought that another woman would know about him more than his own wife.
"What's with the question anyways? I like heavy swords, so I picked one. Does there have to be a reason for that? Why make something so simple so complicated?"
Jasmine's eyes narrowed further. For some reason, she couldn't just bring herself to believe in what Yun Che said. To her, it seemed like he was dodging the question. It was very suspicious in her eyes.
"But a heavy sword is a weapon that isn't suitable for any profound practitioner and is only suitable to be on the battlefield. This princess doesn't understand your reason for picking one."
"But I did give one…" Yun Che stood up and knocked at the sword with a smile. Even though he wasn't Yun Che, he still held the same feelings as him. Though one of his reasons to pick a heavy sword was because of Hong'er and You'er, he still felt a distinct connection with it. He felt as—"They are perfect to protect. I think I never made it clear, didn't I? The reason why I sought so much strength?"
For someone who had come from a modern era, Yun Che understood that only by having strength could you stand for anything.
In his previous world, money and connection was strength. As long as one had both, he could do anything and no one would be able to do shit about it. Though the media loved to portray how safe the world was and how justice the government was, it only takes a smart man to understand that it's not the case.
Those who could ignore the laws, they would ignore the law. And those who couldn't would become the next main news on the TV.
For someone who knew the story of this world, Yun Che knew, if he wanted to remotely stand straight in this world, he needed strength. But then what? Can one man save a hundred people? In God Realm any random divine cultivator can come and destroy the star he was in.
Believe it or not, Yun Che considered this star as his home. As such, he won't shy away from protecting it either.
"It's simple actually." Yun Che chuckled. "I can't protect shit if I'm weak, now can I? As you have said, greatswords are only good on the battlefield and not for profound practitioners. I think the same. But only by going to the battlefield can I protect those behind me. Also, greatswords are cool."
"..."
Jasmine suddenly felt a weird tingling feeling in her heart. An image of a man coinciding with Yun Che. She couldn't help but say.
"The reason why you selected the heavy sword… is exactly the same… as brother's…"
"Your brother?" Yun Che inquired. He knew her brother used heavy swords, but why? He had long since forgotten. After all, it has been what? Seven-somewhat years since he read ATG? Anyone would forget everything about it.
He only remembered bits and pieces of the plot, which he tried his best to take advantage of.
Jasmine suddenly vanished into the Sky Poison Pearl, as if afraid to let Yun Che look at her current state, only her voice rang into his head.
{In the very beginning, brother's weapon of choice was also the light sword. Later, he put down the light sword and picked up the heavy sword, because brother said… The heavy sword… is a weapon for slaughter, an overbearing weapon, but even more so a weapon for protection; he wanted to use the heavy sword to protect me, protect mother, and protect our homeland…}
Yun Che quietly listened to her. As she progressed, he could hear her voice getting lower and lower. He sighed.
'Her brother's position in her heart is way higher than I had thought…'
{In order to train with the heavy sword, brother took a great risk to cultivate the forbidden book Great Way of the Buddha, and after experiencing many untold hardships, he obtained the Heavenly Wolf's legacy, and obtained Heavenly Wolf Hell God's Tome. Afterwards, with great perseverance, brother successfully completely cultivated the Great Way of the Buddha and Heavenly Wolf Hell God's Tome. When he carried the heavy sword on the battlefield, with only one swing of the sword, tens of thousands of soldiers would be completely eradicated.}
{At that time, what I liked to do most was watch the image of brother brandishing the heavy sword on the battlefield; brother was the most handsome, the most powerful, and he gave me and mother an indescribable feeling of safety and reliance. If brother was there, even if the sky was falling, we didn't need to be afraid even a bit, because brother would use his heavy sword, and always protect us, the ones behind him.}
He could hear happiness and pain from her tone. The more she spoke, the painfull her tone seemed to become. It felt as if she was having a hard time speaking about her brother; he held a high position in her heart and meant a lot to Jasmine. Now that he had died, even talking about him made her feel as if someone was stabbing her heart over and over.
"He sounds like a great person." For once, Yun Che replied seriously. If he could, he really wanted to go inside the pearl and consoul Jasmine. But he knew better than anyone that if he did, he would definitely not be leaving in one piece.
He decided to console her through the voice alone.
"If possible, I would love to meet him."
"You… Are you really going to use a heavy sword as your main weapon?"
"I wouldn't be picking it if I wasn't going to use it. Also, due to Heretic God's Veins, it is easier for me to use heavy swords than other practitioners. I won't be burdened as much as they do with it."
"Good…" A small pause appeared with her in her thoughts before she simply said. "Then, from today's forward, I'll teach you the Great Way of the Buddha!"
