Chapter 328 Jiang Cheng's Departure
Late at night, everyone in Zhejian Villa had gone to bed, but Lin Shen did not lie down.
He called out the system and asked, "Hey, system, that new villain force you mentioned six years ago, could it be Li Haiye and his villain alliance?"
Lin Shen thought the system would just fool him around like before, but he didn't expect it to admit it directly this time, "Yes, host, it's Li Haiye."
Lin Shen was speechless and said, "I knew it. Why didn't you tell me earlier? That guy has already developed."
“Some things are meaningless if they are broken too early.”
Lin Shen sighed and said, "Forget it, there's no point in pursuing this now.
By the way, system, do you have any way to control the demonic nature in Jiang Cheng's body, or to prevent him from losing control when the demonic energy surges?"
After a while, the system said directly, "I don't think this system needs to teach you this. Don't forget who gave you the skills you needed when you first came out of the mountains."
Lin Shen thought about it for a moment, then said with sudden enlightenment, "So that's it, the Purification Spell!"
"Ruzi can be taught."
"You even pulled Wen up."
Lin Shen yawned at this time and said, "After today's battle, I'm really a little sleepy. I'm going to rest."
After saying that, Lin Shen lay down on the bed. Just when he was about to close his eyes and rest, he heard the voice of the system.
"Ding!
Congratulations to the host for defeating the villain alliance twice in Jingzhou and Zhejian Villa.
Reward the host with system coins!
Reward the host with 4 Nine-Transformation Great Rejuvenation Pills!
Reward the host with 3 Dragon Elephant Pills, 3 Marrow Cleansing Pills, and 5 Golden Silkworm King Pills!"
Lin Shen could only complain in his heart: "It's been so long since the end, and they only just remembered to give me the reward? They're so late." After complaining, Lin Shen went to sleep.
The next day, when it was already bright and clear, Lin Shen still hadn't gotten up. Zhao Linger walked to the door of Lin Shen's house and knocked several times.
Lin Shen in the room slowly opened his eyes, yawned, and said, "Who is it?"
"It's me, Ling'er."
Lin Shen then got up and opened the door. Zhao Linger saw that Lin Shen looked sleepy and said, "Brother Anos, didn't you get enough rest last night?"
Lin Shen smiled and said, "It's okay. It might just be that the battle with Li Haiye consumed a lot of spiritual energy."
Zhao Linger said, "Do you want to sleep a little longer? Sect Master Ouyang wants to see you about something. I'll help you push it off."
Lin Shen touched Zhao Linger's head and said, "Not really. Let's go over there now."
By the end of that night, the entire Zhejian Villa knew that Jiang Cheng was half-demon.
Regarding his stay or departure, there are immediately two camps:
One faction, represented by the eldest disciple Xiao Changfeng, demanded that Jiang Cheng be expelled from Zhejian Villa;
The other faction, represented by the second disciple Zhou Ying, believed that Jiang Cheng should be given a chance.
Jiang Cheng knelt obediently in front of Ouyang Ying without saying a word.
Ouyang Ying was also troubled by this scene. On the one hand, he felt that Jiang Cheng was indeed a promising talent;
On the other hand, he was afraid that if he left Jiang Cheng behind, others would use this as an excuse to criticize Zhejian Villa, and he needed to consider the reputation of Zhejian Villa.
At this time, Lin Shen came with Zhao Linger and others. Ouyang Ying greeted them and said, "Brother Anos, did you sleep well last night?"
Lin Shen said, "It's okay. Ling'er just told me that the Sect Master wants to see me for something?"
Ouyang Ying sighed and said, "To be honest, after yesterday's incident, everyone in the villa now knows Jiang Cheng's identity."
Lin Shen took over the conversation and said, "That means the Sect Master is worried about whether Jiang Cheng should stay or go."
Ouyang Ying nodded helplessly. Lin Shen said, "Actually, it's better that this bomb exploded earlier. I just want to ask one question, my Master Ouyang, don't you even have the ability to protect your own people?"
Everyone present was confused. Ouyang Ying asked, "Brother, what do you mean?"
"It's very simple. Jiang Cheng's problem is not whether he is half-demon, but whether you are willing to stand up for him.
If you want, they dare to say anything.
If a sect refuses to cooperate with you because of such an incident, then don't expect them to help you when you are in trouble.
It's better to admit it openly. It's not the number of friends that counts, but the quality of them that counts."
Ouyang Ying said, "You mean this is a good opportunity to see the attitudes of other sects in the martial arts world."
Lin Shen nodded and continued, "Besides, among the dozen or so people around me, there is one half-human, half-demon, and one pure demon. I haven't seen them do anything to me."
Ouyang Ying's face suddenly turned black, and he said, "That's right, if anyone dares to say something bad about them, you can just slap them and send them to hell."
Last time, Huangfu Yiming said a few words to sow discord between you and the Lin Family Fort, and you almost got us four families killed on the spot."
"So, this matter depends on you. Are you willing to go against other sects for Jiang Cheng? Only when you are firm in your stance will they not dare to do anything to you."
"I understand. If I can't even protect one disciple, I have no business being the sect leader. However, is there any way to control the demonic nature in him? To prevent him from losing control and hurting others?"
Lin Shen laughed awkwardly and said, "Actually, there is a solution. Let Ling'er pass on the Purification Spell to him, and let him turn the evil in his body into his own use."
Ouyang Ying looked at Zhao Linger and said, "Then I'll leave it to Miss Zhao."
Zhao Linger nodded slightly and walked to Jiang Cheng. Before she began to teach the spell, Xiao Changfeng said, "Master, you can't listen to that nonsense of Anos. Although the tiger may be small, it will hurt people when it grows up."
Lin Shen teleported in front of Xiao Changfeng, grabbed his neck and lifted him up high.
In fact, Lin Shen didn't have a good impression of Xiao Changfeng. In the original storyline, Xiao Changfeng was one of the important people who pushed Jiang Cheng to defect from Zhejian Villa. His interruption at this time made Lin Shen want to kill this guy.
Xiao Changfeng looked very painful and said, "You...what are you going to do!?"
Lin Shen said, "What's the point of keeping someone who doesn't know how to protect his fellow apprentice!"
"You...you are a demon!"
Lin Shen snorted coldly and said, "It's not your turn to comment on who I am.
I will make you understand clearly that Jiang Cheng is a half-demon, this is indeed the truth.
But he is also your junior fellow apprentice. It would be fine if you didn't care for him like an elder brother, but now you still want to start a fight among yourself and unite with your faction to attack those who are dissidents.
If I don't kill someone like you, what else can I do?"
Xiao Changfeng panicked when he heard this and said, "No...no, I know I was wrong, please forgive me!"
"Hmph! Too late~!"
After saying this, a bolt of lightning struck Xiao Changfeng into pieces. Everyone present was shocked, especially the people from the Ouyang family.
Lin Shen ignored the gazes of the group and pointed at the pile of debris and said, "If anyone points fingers at Jiang Cheng's background again, this... will be your mark!"
Ouyang Ying understood that this was to establish his authority. In order to protect Jiang Cheng, someone was needed to play the good guy, and Lin Shen took on this burden.
He coughed twice and then said, "Jiang Cheng is a disciple of our Zhejian Villa. No one is allowed to use his background as an excuse. Anyone who disobeys the order will be severely punished!" Ouyang Ying emphasized the last three words.
In fact, everyone understood that Ouyang Ying was determined to protect Jiang Cheng, so they shouted at the same time, "Yes! Sect Master!"
Lin Shen said to Zhao Linger, "Linger, you can continue."
Over the next few days, Zhao Linger passed the Purification Mantra to Jiang Cheng, who practiced diligently. Gradually, Jiang Cheng was able to better control the demonic nature within him.
In the martial arts world, the fact that Jiang Cheng was half-demon also caused considerable turmoil. Some sects did express their intention to break off ties with Zhejian Villa, but most of them were small sects.
The Shangguan and Huangfu families had originally wanted to stir up trouble, but after learning that Lin Shen had killed Xiao Changfeng in anger, they both shut up. The Xiahou family did not express their views, and the Shen and Lin families also showed an indifferent attitude.
Lin Shen and his party stayed in Zhejian Villa for more than twenty days. Only after Jiang Cheng was able to completely control the evil in his body did he say goodbye to Ouyang Ying and leave Zhejian Villa.
