Chapter 708 (Vol 3) – I’m Really Not A Good Person, But I Try To Be…

“How could I be angry?”

Ling Tian patted both heads, smiling with joy and happiness. His expression at this moment contained no sign of annoyance or anger.

How could he be angry with his disciples? Even more so if he witnessed how they had created their bonds with their special people, loving them and defending them without hesitation? He was happy and proud!

Especially with Daihang Guan; since he was little, Daihang Guan had been among the most fearful, whiny and unsure of himself disciples, so seeing at this moment that he had matured to such an extent made Ling Tian happy. It was to be expected that as soon as they grew up, they would not remain as before.

Besides, Ling Tian had known beforehand and understood the situation between Daihang Guan and Yi Jingwen a little from what Shin Wei and the others had told him. He knew this situation very well and did not want his disciples to go through what he went through when he was separated from Ning Xiaoyi and Xi Fei.

Daihang Guan and Yi Jingwen only needed a little push apparently to come out and confess what they had in their hearts.

“Master, you really aren’t angry?” Daihang Guan asked hesitantly as a happy expression slowly formed on his face. His hand gently squeezed Yi Jingwen’s hand as he turned to look at her, breathing a sigh of relief when he finally understood that Ling Tian was not against Yi Jingwen.

“You smelly brat, do you think I’m capable of forcing you to make you give up your lover after such a long time?” Ling Tian replied with a smiling expression, then added, “I believe I taught each of you that when you found the special person who would complement your hearts what is important is not appearance, status, origin or past, but what is in the heart… just as beauty can hide darkness or evil, a true feeling of love born from the heart is more beautiful than any plain or beautiful appearance.”

Ling Tian looked at Yi Jingwen with a smile. He did not show disgust or disgust at the sight of her scar and, on the contrary, he praised.

“Even though she has a scar on her face, the courage in her heart not to run away and abandon you in this situation and even give up everything for your sake shows what a big heart she has, especially the love she has for you. Appearances will change over time, but the love in the heart will always be eternal and wonderful.”

Ling Tian explained, finally making Daihang Guan understand what he had told him when they were little, before he had to leave them. As far as he knew, Yi Jingwen’s past was tragic and sad, the typical life of a servant family for a big powerful family. Ling Tian really didn’t care whether Yi Jingwen was from a poor or powerful servant family, but that she was a great woman with a wonderful heart for Daihang Guan. Ling Tian could confirm it at these moments that Yi Jingwen did not hesitate to give her all for Daihang Guan, showing the love she has for him.

“Master…” Daihang Guan sighed in relief as he listened to Ling Tian the most, feeling exhilaration in his heart.

Yi Jingwen was also filled with joy and happiness, her heart filling with relief that she had not caused trouble between Daihang Guan and his respected Master.

“Furthermore, didn’t you say so just a few moments ago? Previous status, cultivation level, origin, appearance and past is not what defines one, but one’s actions and thoughts in the present is what matters.” Ling Tian stroked Daihang Guan’s head one last time before withdrawing his hand, nodding at him with full acceptance.

“Right…” Daihang Guan muttered in embarrassment once the situation calmed down and the atmosphere was cheerful again.

“Master, Wenwen…”

“Senior! I may not have much courage or may not be a worthy woman, but I would never abandon or harm senior brother Daihang! He helped me and I will always be grateful to him! He is the most important and irreplaceable man in my heart who makes me very happy!”

As Daihang Guan was about to say something, Yi Jingwen stepped forward and bowed to Ling Tian again, clenching her fists together in a form of respect as she declared what was on her mind. Her body trembled slightly from the nervousness of still facing the mysterious, respected and beloved Master of Daihang Guan, so she couldn’t help but feel nervous.

However, the words were born from her heart without any hint of falsehood, wanting to show Ling Tian that even though she was not a special woman, she would not let Daihang Guan down.

“Wenwen…” Daihang Guan looked at Yi Jingwen, feeling sweetness and gratitude in his heart as he sensed the sincerity of her words.

“From the moment you decided to sacrifice for Daihang Guan’s welfare and stand by his side to face me you have shown me the worth, courage and love in your heart, gaining my approval.” Ling Tian laughed lightly, waving his hand slightly and making Yi Jingwen straighten up with a gentle energy, “In addition, everyone was aware about the obvious feelings between you two, but you were still hesitating and thinking whether to move forward, so I decided to give you the last push you needed, haha. Now you don’t have to worry… well, yeah, you have to invite me to your heavenly wedding, haha~”

Ling Tian chuckled, making both Daihang Guan and Yi Jingwen blush, especially the latter. He knew that he was the main concern of Daihang Guan and his other disciples, hesitating about whether to do some things because of wanting to find him and not being able to return to this world mainly; the relationship between Daihang Guan and Yi Jingwen was a clear example.

Ling Tian could also see that Yi Jingwen’s scar didn’t seem to be ordinary, but he would ask later.

“Master… thank you!”

Daihang Guan looked happily at Ling Tian before hugging him, feeling very joyful. Master really is still so magnanimous and wonderful!

Yi Jingwen also had bright eyes, looking at Daihang Guan and Ling Tian with deep gratitude. But her complexion was still flushed deeply, with her heart beating ceaselessly with surprising rapidity.

“Congratulations, Vice President Daihang!”

“Congratulations too, Mistress Yi!”

The next moment, Elder Woo Chin and Master Fengta approached and happily congratulated Daihang Guan and Yi Jingwen.

“T-thank you!” Daihang Guan and Yi Jingwen responded embarrassedly, but with blushingly happy expressions.

“Congratulations, brother. See, I told you Master wouldn’t be against it.” Lu Wuhu patted Daihang Guan’s shoulder before hugging him, with the latter also happily reciprocating. Lu Wuhu also happily congratulated Yi Jingwen, before proceeding to tease both of them and making them blush more.

“I knew big brother is still so cool!”

Ling Tian was stunned for a moment before letting out a small laugh and seeing Xue Ning who approached him with a beautiful and happy smile at the sight of him. He could see that even her beautiful light honey-colored eyes had an unusual sparkle that briefly shook his heart, but conveyed immense joy.

Xuanyuan Ling, Xuanyuan Haoyun, Shan Qingwu and Nalan Ziqing approached as well, respectfully congratulating Daihang Guan and Yi Jingwen as well. Nalan Ziqing had her gaze fixed on Ling Tian, never ceasing to be surprised by all the latest happenings, feeling that she couldn’t understand Ling Tian more and more. The more she thought she knew him, the more she realized that he really wasn’t what she thought.

Was Ling Tian really as wonderful and unique as her Masters described him?

Nalan Ziqing unknowingly planted the seed of curiosity about Ling Tian in her heart…

Ling Tian took Long Yuyin’s soft and tender hand, looking at her with love and feeling grateful in his heart for having such wonderful wives who make him very happy. His loving gaze fell on Mu Shuiruo who she was still so focused searching through every drawer in the place from long ago, looking for the medicinal materials for his recovery.

“I’m really not a good person, but I try to be…” Ling Tian replied in a low voice, looking at the smile of Xue Ning and the others.

He more than anyone else knew his cold and cruel past, the river of blood and mountains of corpses he created. But as Daihang Guan had said, one’s past is not what defines one, but one’s actions and behaviors of the present is what matters. His past is something he cannot change, and he is not something he wants to either… because after all, it was because of it that he is now in this place, getting gifts and surprises that life had in store for him, enjoying a new feeling he never thought he could have.
