Chapter 1927 : Brothers’ Heart

“Han Bingxue.” Li Wuliang gave a smile that was not a smile. “I don’t want to be together with Ye Xiao in the same place. The main reason is that I don’t want to argue with him over the boss’s position… but you knew where he was for quite a long time, why were you so slow in going to look for him?”

Han Bingxue scoffed and disdainfully said, “Big Brother Li, before I thought that all along you were a pure person, that you wouldn’t hide nor conceal whatever matter. You had a sentence to say, you said it. How is it that right now you have also studied how to speak tactfully, that you not wanting to strive for the boss position with Boss Ye is simply you just not wanting to go act as Boss Ye’s subordinate, right? Originally I held you in very high esteem. Besides Boss Ye, you were the next on the list. But just relying on you, how could you also strive to be more than my boss? With our brothers together we’ll naturally raise a person’s worth and crack jokes after the event is finished, but if outsiders hear, then we’re clearly losing face. People should still have some knowledge of themselves. A good dream originally is most easy to wake up from. Only by waking up are you able to be intoxicated with it, in plain terms, we would say that dreams are all crazy… that person!”

Hearing the end of this argument, Li Wuliang fumed with rage.

How dare that bastard speak this way, you say you raised that bastard Ye Xiao up high, I’ll grant you that, but how did I get belittled until I arrived under the nine springs of the underworld through this version of events? Unexpectedly you’re still speaking off the cuff ‘although I held you in very high esteem’ really think I didn’t hear that, you precisely said I have the dream of a crazy person?!

“Han Bingxue you self-centered show-off! I your father had good intentions to reminisce with you, but you focused on poking my weak spot, you precisely respect me that way!”

Li Wuliang panted heavily in anger.

Han Bingxue giggled.

“You still dare to laugh? You little youngster, what cultivation level are you right now?” Li Wuliang looked askance at Han Bingxue. “You unexpectedly only obtained Saint Origin Stage level 8? That’s no more strength than a cricket or an ant. You unexpectedly also dare to look down upon your Uncle Li, do you not trust that your Uncle Li can crush you to death with just one finger?!”

Saying this really wasn’t boasting shamelessly. Although they had only been separated for a period of time counting in years, Li Wuliang husband and wife pair’s cultivation levels had astonishing breakthroughs. But, Han Bingxue’s current strength was no more than Saint Origin Stage level 8, he seriously might not be able to take one small fingertip of Li Wuliang’s, it might crush and roll over him.

As he knew the matters of himself the best, Han Bingxue flushed red and retorted, “Li Wuliang, what do you mean by that? Your cultivation level is extraordinarily high, ah, you emphasize that fact means that your argument is no more than that. Can it be that you just want to depend on a fight? Relying on your cultivation level being higher than mine by a point, that you had better dogshit luck than I did, you just want to bully me?”

Li Wuliang made a vomiting sound at this viciously shaped accusation. “Bully you? You think you are my wife? Your pee doesn’t shine golden with morality. You think your little pretty boy face is omnipotent?”

Han Bingxue was flabbergasted, and simply didn’t dare to believe his ears. Where did that past Li Wuliang who was careful with his words, smiled, was heroic, generous, noble, and benevolent go? What was this ghost in front of his eyes?!

To the side, Xue Danru was listening to those two buffoons’ glib bickering. Originally she was still smiling, but when she heard up until here, she was actually suddenly quite indignant, and ruthlessly pinched a firm portion of his waist. Whoosh whoosh, she had wringed it 7 or 8 times.

“…sss… lost…” Li Wuliang shook with pain, hastily begging forgiveness.

Han Bingxue, upon seeing this, gave a huge laugh. Li Wuliang indeed wasn’t the original Li Wuliang, how could Li Wuliang with a wife be the same as that time’s Li Wuliang!

“Psh, what are you laughing at. You still haven’t answered my question from just now, why didn’t you go look for Ye Xiao?” Li Wuliang said, “If you went to look for him, your cultivation level absolutely wouldn’t be limited to the point that you’re at right now. The Shuang and Han girls were serious about meeting Ye Xiao, and their cultivation levels were even weaker than yours, but I would dare to assert that right now, those two’s current realm must absolutely be too much stronger compared to you, maybe not even weaker than the wife and I.”

Han Bingxue lightly shook his head, and faintly said, “I admittedly knew boss’s information very early on in time, but even then at that time, Boss had already revealed his outstanding talent, and his smile was moving the wind and clouds. I painstakingly cultivated this way for many years, practicing day and night. Right now I only managed to reach Saint Origin Stage level 8, and with just this kind of cultivation level, whatever would I need to go look for Boss for? Wouldn’t I just cause trouble for him? The Shuang and Han girls could go look for Boss because of their childhood sentiments, remembering him with a longing heart. If I went, what would I be regarded as?”

“I also knew that if I went to look for him, Boss would certainly treat me favorably, and even more would go out of his way to find a hundred and one ways to cultivate me. But, inside his organization, I would become a different kind of person, a pretty boy who depends on others.” Han Bingxue frustratedly said, “I don’t want to make things difficult for Boss.”

Li Wuliang said, “En?”

“From me to Boss, from beginning to end all I feel evolves from my innermost heart’s respect for him. No matter what time I would become Boss’s subordinate, I would be willing. On that day Boss Ye first returned to the Heaven Realm, when his cultivation had dropped, I would have been able to crush him dead with just one finger. However, I still know him as the same Boss, this is my thoughts towards him.” Han Bingxue’s elegant face held a warm recollection. “But Boss and I are not the same. Towards us, Boss only has held brotherly feelings, and has no way of knowing the meaning of subordinates towards us.”

“I’m convinced that on that day, he will release you to leave, just because he doesn’t want to destroy the brotherly sentiments of that year and have sworn brothers change into subordinates. That’s why I didn’t go look for him all along, it was precisely for this reason. In those years, he needed me at his side, and me protecting him was fine. I also finished being his companion, even if I can’t be said to be relieved of that fact, but now…”

Han Bingxue bitterly laughed. “I know this sounds very silly, and too biased, but… I still have hope that, when Boss arrives lonely at the top, he still has his brothers in his heart. He still has what he thinks in his heart, even though he misses us in his heart, he won’t be lonely.”

Li Wuliang didn’t speak for a long time. A good while afterwards, he finally said, “But if you can continue accompanying him, together arriving at the peak, wouldn’t it be even better?”

“I originally very much thought this way, and I am also convinced that Boss would help me do it. He would walk the road with me and do his utmost to help me advance, this point there is no need to doubt.”

Han Bingxue said, “Before we reached the peak, Boss and I wouldn’t have any change whatsoever. But after we arrived at the peak? In a time where two mighty heroes were existing side by side, even if the two of us didn’t have our original intentions change, would the hearts of our subordinates also not change?! The peak’s summit is always narrow and can only house one person. It’s an either this or that situation, and isn’t something that two people’s steadfast original intentions is able to resolve.”

Han Bingxue faintly smiled a time. “Because of this, I decided not to receive Boss’s help again. Might as well let the disparity between our cultivation level be even a bit bigger, that also won’t hurt. In any case, in the hearts of our brothers, brothers are brothers from beginning to end. Just because the gap in cultivation level is big doesn’t mean that you will look down upon your brothers…”

“Actually right now, this appearance is also rather good.” Han Bingxue gave a warm smile.

“Then why must you come right now, do you not fear that you will be cumbersome to him when you arrive!?” Li Wuliang asked, smiling and mischievous.

“This occasion is precisely the crucial moment of his life, his autumn moment of life and death. If he isn’t able to win this fight, I’m afraid we would only meet again after an unspecified period.” Han Bingxue said in silence. “Today has come, and I intend to meet together with my brothers. If we live then we live together, if we die then we die together. In this world of brothers, life and death mutually follow. This time, if I didn’t accompany Boss as his companion, wouldn’t it be lonesome?!”
