Capítulo 1813: Chapter 272: Astonishment
After carefully examining each word, the important figure holding the paper widened their pupils and exclaimed, “As expected of a brilliant swordsmanship, it starts off exquisitely, full of endless wonders. Surely, it will become even more extraordinary.”
This exclamation completely piqued the curiosity of the Emperor of Great You Country, so he snatched the paper to take a closer look.
No one dared to get angry in the presence of these important figures, because this was the Imperial Palace of Great You Country, and the Emperor wielded the most power; if they had any objections, they would surely incur hostility or even revenge.
After scrutinizing each character, the Emperor of Great You Country was also shocked by this page of Sword Technique Mental Method.
This page of Sword Technique Mental Method was unlike any other mental method they cultivated in swordsmanship. Yet, every sentence was intertwined with mysteries, and even some light and colors were integrated into it.
It’s known that light and colors are illusory, hard to incorporate into swordsmanship. Yet, this page of the Sword Technique Mental Method accomplished it, indicating the creator’s immense wisdom.
Only those with profound cultivation can use such things easily for their own purposes; thus, he dreaded Lin Yifan’s identity once more.
If Lin Yifan truly is a cultivator from a high-dimensional world, then his Great You Country might indeed face utter disaster.
“Don’t frighten yourself, where in this world do so many high-dimensional world cultivators come from?”
Seeing the Emperor of Great You Country alternating between surprise, furrowing his brows, and being lost in thought, the surrounding figures did not know what was going on with him and thus asked, “How is it, Emperor of Great You Country? Isn’t it profound?”
“Profound, extremely profound, almost to the utmost limit of profundity.”
The Emperor of Great You Country looked up at the ceiling, exclaiming three times, not daring to deny the extraordinary aspects of this Sword Technique Mental Method.
“Really? Let me have a look!”
Some key figures, fully driven by curiosity, reached out to snatch the paper from the Emperor’s hands.
Feeling someone trying to take his treasure, the Emperor of Great You Country instinctively held it tight, not letting them succeed.
This action completely angered the surrounding figures, so they angrily asked, “Emperor of Great You Country, what do you intend to do?”
Sensing the powerful presence, and considering the relationship between Lin Yifan and the Kingdom of Leizhen, as well as an underlying mysterious background, the Emperor of Great You Country let go of his guard, awkward yet politely responding, “I didn’t intend anything, I just thought the paper was going to fall, so I wanted to hold it tight.”
As they are all in the same boat, should they cross the river and destroy the bridge, becoming enemies, then the matter of imprisoning Lin Yifan and the Third Prince of Leizhen Kingdom would surely reach the Thunder King’s ears.
Once the Thunder King and Lin Yifan’s father learn of this, combined with these people teaming up to cause trouble, then even if Great You Country does not perish, it will suffer an unprecedented blow, and even he might not escape unscathed, so he truly can’t afford to turn against these people.
The surrounding important figures did not believe the Emperor’s excuse, but since he had already backed down, they couldn’t keep pressing, so they each took a step back and suppressed their anger.
Having taken the paper, they each began to carefully read and comprehend the profound aspects contained within.
Watching as these people inscribed every word into their hearts and praised it, the Emperor of Great You Country felt quite uncomfortable.
For this was akin to a peerless treasure, who could endure having their peerless treasure thoroughly understood and learned by others?
Thinking these thoughts, he felt there was a necessity to secretly eliminate these people. But if it wasn’t done cleanly, he would only harm himself, so he hesitated once more.
Lin Yifan went through much effort to write this piece that could mislead and cause one’s cultivation to go astray, just to instigate internal strife and mutual conflict among these people.
If this could not be achieved, there was an alternative measure: should they cultivate using this page of the Sword Technique Mental Method, they would either die from the explosion of their bodies or lose their minds, becoming idiots.
Although the means might be somewhat ruthless, it was these old foxes who forced it, so they couldn’t blame him for being vicious and merciless.
One by one, after reading, the surrounding figures were eager to know what the subsequent mental methods looked like, urging Lin Yifan to continue writing.
Lin Yifan, of course, was unwilling and chose to refuse.
The surrounding figures considered him to be pretentious, thus threatening and intimidating, “Kid, will you write or not? If not, we’ll tear you to pieces and feed you to the dogs.”
“Then you may as well tear me to pieces and feed me to the dogs, for my mind is blank, and I truly can’t remember anything,” Lin Yifan replied, feigning a weak and painful expression.
Seeing this, the surrounding figures were furious to the point of gritting their teeth, yet they had no way to proceed.
Lin Yifan was the only one who knew the Sword Technique Mental Method; killing him would gain them nothing.
For now, they’ll let him rest for a day. After all, they have plenty of time, and aren’t afraid that Lin Yifan won’t eventually reveal everything.
Hence, they all left Lin Yifan’s room, going out to ponder and cultivate this page of Sword Technique Mental Method.
After they left, Lei Ming was finally permitted to leave the room.
Lei Ming hurried to Lin Yifan’s room immediately; his voice arriving before his body, “Brother Lin, are you okay? Did they harm you?”
Seeing Lei Ming so anxious, Lin Yifan curiously asked, “Why the rush?”
Seeing Lin Yifan safe and sound, Lei Ming relaxed and replied, “I thought they’d kill you, so I came to check the situation.”
“And? You’ve seen it now!”
“Brother Lin, you didn’t hand over the Sword Technique Mental Method to them, did you?” Lei Ming asked curiously.
“What else could I do? Life is more important after all,” Lin Yifan replied calmly.
“But that’s your father’s life’s work, how can you hand it over to those old foxes so easily?” Lei Ming was truly puzzled.
“Alright, if the blade was at your throat, I’m sure you’d write obediently too, so stop with the rousing speeches,” Lin Yifan replied.
“Who says? If it were me, I’d never write it,” Lei Ming replied, standing firm and righteous.
“Fine, fine, you’re the principled one,” Lin Yifan, not wanting to argue any further, suggested, “Let’s go for a walk.”
“A walk? Didn’t you already write the Sword Technique Mental Method for them? Why haven’t you been released?” Lei Ming questioned.
“I only recalled a part, so I have to keep writing,” Lin Yifan replied.
“A part?”
Upon hearing these words, Lei Ming understood that Brother Lin was stalling for time and immediately curbed his pride.
Brother Lin was truly not a foolish person; it was he who underestimated him.
However, this wasn’t a long-term solution, and he was still afraid that Brother Lin might reveal the entire Sword Technique Mental Method.
······
Leaving the room, Lin Yifan wandered through the Imperial Palace’s back garden, appreciating the flowers and grass there.
