Douluo: Law of Heaven and Earth

Chapter 949: Lu Qibin's Past - Extra : Determination
In the lounge, Xu Ming and his direct disciples came to persuade them.

"Li Yang, I hope you will consider this carefully."

"We don't stop stargazing. On the contrary, it is beneficial to cultivation. However, if you only focus on stargazing and ignore the improvement of your cultivation, it is not a good thing."

"I hope you take care of yourself!"

"..."

After these people left, Li Yang pursed his lips and thought to himself: "Observing the trajectory of the stars is a kind of practice in itself!"

But she didn't say anything because the elders and direct disciples wouldn't listen.

They watched the stars just to assist their cultivation, but she watched the stars out of her desire to understand the truth behind the movement of the stars and her passion for it.

"What should I do next?"

Li Yang thought, "Why don't I admit my mistake and swear an oath? With my talent, the elders of the sect will definitely not do anything to me.

I can study in secret...

He just needs some flattery on the surface and to become the lovable Li Yang again...
Think carefully, do I really want to sacrifice my future for this so-called research? For a genius like me, wealth, status, and honor are only a matter of time.

Moreover, my parents, sister and brother at home also wanted me to succeed and change their fate of being farmers and slaves for generations.

destiny--"

At some point, it had darkened and a ray of moonlight shone through the window of the lounge, falling on the face of Li Yang, who couldn't sleep and didn't want to practice.

She stood up as if possessed by a ghost, raised her head, and looked at the bright moon through the narrow iron window. Her thoughts suddenly became silent.

What does it feel like?

Li Yang felt her heart beating, it was clearly the same as usual, but it brought her incomparable peace.

“Are you still stargazing?”

The door of the lounge opened at some point. The sudden old voice made Li Yang turn his head unconsciously and look at the person who came calmly: "Elder Li."

Li Gong continued to ask: "Is it really so important to observe the movement of the stars and record their movement trajectories? Is it worth giving up your own future?"

Li Yang also learned another thing from his cousin Smith, that is, his disguise was too immature in front of these old people and could be easily seen through, so the right answer was to reveal his true thoughts.

and so--

"Is my cousin dead?" Li Yang did not answer, but asked this question.

"He's dead. I killed him with my own hands. He shouldn't have been free..." Engineer Li did not say the next words, but Li Yang had already guessed that Engineer Li in front of him had made a lot of efforts to get Smith out of prison.

"My bad."

Li Yang sighed, but he felt no resentment or regret for Smith's death.

"Don't you want to seek revenge on me?"

Mr. Li was surprised.

"No." Li Yang's eyes were calm, just like Smith's. "Everyone will die eventually, right? Besides, he is not that closely related to my family."

Li Gong was silent for a long time before he said quietly, "Is it necessary to do this?
That’s all, I just want to say.

Two days later, in front of the sect's new batch of disciples, admit your mistake and set an example. Everyone will regard you as a role model and the sect's future star!

Even if you want to continue your research, please do it in secret, don’t put it in the open, and don’t tell others about it. When you, when you…” “When I truly have a certain status in the sect, when I become a Titled Douluo——”

Li Yang smiled and said the truth that Li Gong dared not say, "Elder Li, by that time, it will be too late. Just like you, you are not pedantic, but you have your duties and responsibilities, and you can't change anything.

Besides, how can one do research alone?

Only by verifying and discussing with everyone can we get the answer closest to objective existence——

truth!"

"Girl!" Li Gong noticed that Li Yang's eyes were almost identical to Smith's. He released his soul power and pushed Li Yang back to the corner. He couldn't help but yelled, "Think about your family! Your brothers and sisters! They are all waiting for you to change their fate!"

"Well~"

Li Yang wiped the blood from the corner of his mouth and laughed. "I am not a god. I cannot make decisions for them and cannot change their fate. If it is their fate to be farmers and slaves for generations, then if they want to change it, they have to rely on themselves."

"Unfilial!" Li Gong was furious and asked, "What if the sect threatens their lives?"

"Then this is the sect's problem."

Li Yang is indeed a smart man, and he does not accept moral blackmail. "If I really do this, I won't need to take revenge, and the sect will not last long."

Mr. Li felt as if he had punched cotton, but through Li Yang's eyes, he also understood that for such a person, physical punishment would be of no help at all. Even chastity, which is the most important thing for ordinary women, is dispensable to her!
Her thirst for knowledge is even greater than Smith's!

Smith could abandon his soul power and choose death for the sake of research without any fear in his eyes.

Li Yang, that’s also possible!
But in fact, Mr. Li didn't know that there was a difference between the two.

Everything Smith did was ultimately for the purpose of bringing about fundamental changes to the sect, and he had a deep sense of responsibility towards the sect.

But Li Yang didn't.

Just as she used to pretend to be approachable, kind, gentle and graceful in front of her classmates in order to gain praise from others and live a fulfilling life, stargazing with Smith was also to satisfy her curiosity.

To sum up, it’s for herself!
"I hope you will take care of yourself." Engineer Li looked at Li Yang deeply, and without further persuasion, he left the lounge.

Li Yang found himself alone in the small square room. He looked at the full moon outside the window and made up his mind...
···
"She is so stubborn! How could I have taught such a disciple? She can't even rest in peace after death! I don't know what kind of drug she gave Li Yang to make such a lovely girl become so stubborn!"

Engineer Li, who was cursing, had just left the Criminal Law Hall when he saw Lu Qibin wandering around the outer wall of the lounge.

"Why are you here?"

After being discovered, Lu Qibin scolded and walked over, "What's your name?"

"Elder Li, hello, my name is Lu Qibin, and I am a student of Xingguan Academy. Like Li Yang, I will become a formal disciple in two days."

"Lu Qibin?"

Engineer Li recalled that it was this guy who told the teacher at Xingguan Academy about Li Yang and Smith's relationship, and after this incident, he also checked all of Li Yang's relationships.

In the classroom, many people confessed their love to Li Yang, but were all rejected. Only Lu Qibin was too timid to confess his love.

But I didn't expect that he would have the courage to come here.

【interesting!】

Li Gong thought for a while and asked, "Are you willing to be my disciple?"
