Lin Kong: "You’ve practiced evil cultivation and killed people. Those who have gone mad were all in contact with the deceased before they beca afflicted."
"What?"
It was truly a bolt from the blue. The Fourth Prince was stunned. It turned out that the chaos outbreak in the Capital was caused by him. His imperial father was overwheld by this situation, and if he found out it was his doing, the consequences would be dire.
The Fourth Prince looked helplessly at Lin Kong and said, "Master, what kind of martial arts did you teach ? Why did it turn out like this? You’ve caused great trouble."
Upon hearing this, Lin Kong’s face darkened and he coldly replied, "Fourth Prince, didn’t you rember that when you began practicing martial arts, I warned you repeatedly that evil cultivation has its pros and cons? Yes, it can boost your martial arts skills and even allow your eyes to regrow, but once practiced, it will definitely harm your body, making it different from that of ordinary people. You killed soone, and the corpse beca infused with evil force. The commoners, unprotected, handled the corpse barehanded, and naturally, the evil force easily entered their bodies, causing loss of reason. From one infection to another, it has spiraled into today’s uncontrollable situation."
Angered, Lin Kong no longer addressed the Fourth Prince as an apprentice.
The Fourth Prince, still shaken, yet afraid to provoke Lin Kong further, pleaded, "Master, please don’t be angry. Your disciple spoke without thinking and said things that shouldn’t have been said. Please forgive this ti!"
Realizing his mistake, the Fourth Prince quickly admitted his fault, as his martial arts progress depended on Lin Kong’s guidance. He dared not offend him. If Lin Kong abandoned him in anger, he would be finished, and the Crown Prince position would slip away from him.
Moreover, abandoning evil cultivation midway is questionable, leaving aside the risk of becoming foolish from practicing it. The restoration of his eyesight would be a major issue.
Lin Kong snorted coldly and said, "Rember, Fourth Prince, it was your choice to practice evil cultivation; I didn’t force you. I’m an unjustly implicated master. As your teacher, I’ve gained nothing, yet I’m blad as a villain. I’m telling you, I’m not taking the bla."
The Fourth Prince quickly grinned and said, "Yes, yes, it’s not the Master’s fault; I volunteered to learn."
Lin Kong glanced at the Fourth Prince, lay on the bed, closed his eyes, and coldly said, "Leave, I’m tired."
The Fourth Prince, born into the Imperial Family and always the center of attention, found it unsettling that people usually bowed to him, but Lin Kong’s cold deanor made him a bit upset. However, seeking assistance, he dared not complain and humbly retreated.
Xuexue and Long Rui on the rooftop heard everything clearly; indeed, the chaos was caused by the Fourth Prince.
Upon realizing this shocking revelation, they were about to leave when suddenly Lin Kong shouted from inside the room, "Where’s that little ghost? Get down here!"
It was only then that Xuexue rembered that Xiao Taohong had followed, forgetting the mighty presence of Lin Kong in the Fourth Prince’s mansion while in a hurry to crack the case.
Thus, she waved, and took the frightened Xiao Taohong into her space.
As Xuexue made her move, Lin Kong also sensed soone on the rooftop.
The mont there was a disturbance on the rooftop, the ghostly presence vanished instantly.
Realizing soone had broken into the Fourth Prince’s mansion, Lin Kong imdiately sprang up from the bed, in a flash, he was dressed, and then leaped out through the window.
