Serious People, Who is Learning Magic at Marvel?

The sight of Presidian made the mage feel a little surprised after a long absence.

The Ionians called it the Holy Land—a name true to its name, as he and the she-wolf stood on high cliffs and looked down at the city of valleys, plains, and boulders. There is a waterfall not far from where the source came from. Not far from the waterfall is the goal of the mage's trip, the magic garden of Presidian.

The scene of the garden is difficult to describe in words, in fact, He Shenyan prefers to call it a jungle. Among them are not only those huge or small colorful flowers, but also countless towering giant trees. Just looking at this wondrous building made the mage feel a soft breeze caressing his cheeks.

He knew that it was the spirit of nature here greeting him.

The she-wolf pressed against his calf, He Shenyan put his hands behind his back, stared at the scene below, and said, "Do you want to go there and see? Can... let's go."

-------------------------------------

It has been three days since they returned to the Equilibrium sect, and Jie and Shen confessed everything to Ku, including their inner torment and doubts about Equilibrium. They expected to be punished, and even prepared to be expelled from the Equilibrium sect for it.

but no.

Nothing at all.

No punishment, no reprimand. Even the training time is the same as usual. Kusuo master said nothing, just let them continue to study. He didn't even comment on the matter.

Days passed by in such torment, and they began to wonder if they really did something wrong. In order to divert his attention, Shen ran to meditate on an ancient puzzle in the scriptures, and even passed out due to overwork. . And he was called a fool by a disdainful Ji afterwards.

A week after their return to the sect, Master Kusuo summoned them.

It is still the temple on the top of the mountain, the fallen leaves have changed to new shoots at this time. It's Chinese New Year, and the Blossoming Festival is coming soon. In front of Master Kushuo was a small stone table with many exquisite tea utensils. He made himself a bowl of tea, but did not drink it.

"Talk about your feelings." He said to the two of them, and then picked up the tea bowl.

"..."

But all he got was silence, Jie and Shen stood side by side in front of him, no one chose to speak. This silent confrontation made Master Kushuo laugh: "You are like two sides of a leaf, similar to each other but different..."

He put down the tea bowl and said, "Come in."

The door of the monastery was pushed open, and a man in a black suit walked in. He knelt down on one knee to Master Kusuo and said respectfully, "Master, the task has been completed."

Task?

Shen's heart suddenly felt a little uneasy, and before he could speak, the man continued: "We killed two-thirds of the people in the village, and the balance has been maintained."

"What did you say?!"

Jie's reaction exceeded Shen's expectations. He thought his brother was a reserved person. But his anger at this time was like a burst of flames. Jie stepped forward and knocked the man to the ground with a punch, but he did not resist, but silently endured Jie's fist until his nose was broken and his face was full of expressions. is blood.

The bitter talk didn't stop him, and he even took another sip of tea when he was free. He turned to look at Shen and said, "Balance must be maintained, Shen."

For the first time in his life, the young Shen felt that his father was so unfamiliar.

He stretched out his hand, stopped the ring that was about to beat the man to death, gritted his teeth and said, "I don't understand, why do you have to kill those innocent villagers? What's wrong with them?"

"There's nothing wrong with them, Shen," Ku said and motioned for the man to leave. The half-beaten man looked like a machine. He stood up, lowered his head without saying a word, and left quickly.

"But they have to die, that's the balance. If you want to maintain the balance, you have to be unfriendly, not obey the law, or even violate the teachings of our ancestors about benevolence, righteousness, propriety and wisdom... You have to Train yourself to have no feelings."

Ring is really unbearable. He has always respected Kusuo that he was an orphan without a father and mother, and Kusuo picked him up and raised him. As the old saying goes, if you are raised before you are born, you will never be repaid in a hundred lifetimes. But he had to ask that question now.

"Master... Equilibrium, what is it? You said that we need to maintain equilibrium, which is the key to the long-term existence of Ionia. But I don't understand, isn't it only natural that the man-eating evil spirits are slaughtered? Do those villagers need to pay for the death of the evil spirits?! This is ridiculous!"

He said bitterly that he finished the bowl of tea.

He put down the tea bowl gently, stretched out his hand, and a yellow leaf floated from the branches of the old tree in the yard. He put his **** together, sandwiched the leaves between them, and said slowly, "You still don't understand. The balance is not the balance of humans, but the balance of Ionia."

"We walk between the spiritual realm and the material world, and sometimes we have to live in the gap for our entire lives. But everything is worth it, as long as the balance of Ionia itself is not disturbed. Whether it is animals or Humans can continue to survive on this land, even for tens of thousands of years."

"Prince, be careful. I don't expect you to understand the true meaning of the way of balance at such a young age. I understand you, and I asked my teacher the same question when I was your age. Until my last I saw with my own eyes the apocalyptic scene after the equilibrium was broken."

"Master~www.novelmt.com~ You acted as a cannibalistic evil spirit and turned a blind eye. But after those evil spirits were killed, you turned around and asked us to kill those innocent villagers? What kind of balance is this?" Shen asked road.

"Ignore it?" Ku Said seemed to be laughing angrily. He slapped the stone table heavily and yelled loudly, "What do you think the sect's disciples are doing when they go out to perform tasks all day? They are killing evil ghosts! We will find and kill human evil spirits eventually, but we will not kill more or less. We will kill as many people as they eat."

Jie's expression gradually became unbelievable: "If there is a way to kill them before they can eat people, wouldn't it be possible to prevent innocent people from dying?"

"You have a good idea, quit. But we are the Ionian Equilibrium sect. What we want to maintain is the Ionian Equilibrium, and the goblins and spirits come from the spiritual realm, and they are those magnificent things in the spiritual realm. A projection on the physical world. If we kill too much, the fragile connection between the spiritual realm and the physical world collapses..."

"Do you know what will happen then?"

Ku Shuo closed his eyes and sighed deeply: "Now, let's go down the mountain. The two of you have been banned from the sect for a year and cannot leave."
