Invincible Divine Doctor of the Beautiful Lady-Chapter 771 - 745 Walking Your Own Path

Liu Sheng also gave a carefree smile, "If there aren’t any, that’s fine. We’ll wait for the next batch. After all, there’s no rush at the moment. We have agreed, Tangyu, to order ten thousand Healing Pills from you."

Yan Chu also smiled, "I will wait for the next batch as well. Make it twenty thousand."

With business knocking at his door, Tangyu naturally had no reason to refuse, and with a nod and a smile, he said, "Alright, no problem. However, I can’t guarantee a delivery date."

"Hehe, of course," Liu Sheng smiled understandingly.

They were not truly there for the wine, to use the metaphor: a mere matter of Healing Pills was, in fact, of little difference to them. What was important was the opportunity to strengthen their connection with Tangyu. The enthusiasm of the two also made Tangyu secretly ponder. Should he really be receiving such courteous treatment from them, even if he had shown the strength of the Ninth Layer of the Innate Realm?

Of course, Tangyu just let the thought pass—it was merely a feeling. Speaking of which, with the strength Tangyu had demonstrated, he certainly had the qualifications to look down upon the Outer Sect members. freewebnσvel.cøm

For such a master to receive fervent recruitment from Myriad Saints Hall and Shocking King Hall was an utterly normal affair.

Tangyu even wondered if they knew he was the one who had refined these Healing Pills?

If the flattery was due to this, then it made even more sense. However, only he and Liang Youshan should know about this; by all accounts, no third party should be aware. Even if they had come with this in mind, it would be nothing more than a guess.

Could a mere guess lead the distinguished figures from Myriad Saints Hall and Shocking King Hall of the Outer Sect to actively court his favor?

The intentions of Liu Sheng and Yan Chu also prompted Tangyu to be more cautious. After all, what Tangyu was facing were two of the five major powers, each of which was not something he could afford to provoke at the moment.

After sitting for a while and chatting about various matters, Yan Chu said with an open and hearty expression, "Tangyu, I won’t beat around the bush with you. There is only one purpose for my visit today, which is to invite you to join our Shocking King Hall. With your strength, as long as you are willing to join Shocking King Hall, your status will certainly not be low. In the Outer Sect, you could at least make it into the top ten."

Liu Sheng also smiled, "Yan Chu, why are you so impatient? Tangyu, don’t listen to him. Join our Myriad Saints Hall instead. Our Myriad Saints Hall is the faction with the most members of Myriad Saints Sect. There are many benefits to joining us."

Yan Chu immediately became unhappy, his words tinged with sarcasm, "What’s the use of having a lot of people? Although Shocking King Hall has fewer members, every single one is an elite among elites, a master among masters. Ordinary characters don’t even qualify to join our Shocking King Hall. Your Myriad Saints Hall’s minimum requirement is the Sixth Layer of the Innate Realm to join, and with a recommendation, even the Fifth Layer of the Innate Realm will do. But Shocking King Hall is different; without reaching the Seventh Level of the Innate Realm, one has no right to join."

Hearing Yan Chu’s words, Liang Youshan’s mouth twitched in response; he was currently only at the Sixth Layer of the Innate Realm, meaning he didn’t even qualify to join Shocking King Hall.

Why is there such a big gap between people?

Tangyu had anticipated the intentions of the two men, and now that they had spoken openly, it was time for Tangyu to formally face the issue.

Myriad Saints Hall, being one of the five major forces with the most members, could be considered the most powerful if one really wanted to say so. Moreover, the Hall Master of Myriad Saints Hall was a dazzling figure, a leading personage among the disciples of Myriad Saints Valley, and even in the entire Ancient Martial World, he was a figure of immense fame and great influence.

Even when traveling outside, the Saint Lords of the ten Holy Lands had to treat him with respect.

Such a figure had already reached the peak levels of the Ancient Martial Realm. It could be said that a mere stomp of his foot was enough to shake the entire Ancient Martial World. Tangyu, before such a powerhouse, was as insignificant as an ant.

Shocking King Hall, on the other hand, followed the path of the elite. In terms of numbers, it had the fewest among the five forces. However, within Shocking King Hall, there were also many outstanding characters.

Liang Youshan was indeed torn over Tangyu’s choice; both factions were very good, but which one to join?

Actually, joining either one was much the same; at this point, it depended on personal preference.

Tangyu, however, curled his lip and shook his head, "Sorry, both of you, I don’t intend to join any faction for the time being. If I become interested later, I will seek you out."

Tangyu’s refusal surprised Liu Sheng, Yan Chu, and Liang Youshan, as they all stared at him, truly not expecting Tangyu to decline. After all, for any Outer Sect Disciple, this was an exceptional opportunity. It was indeed difficult to get by in Myriad Saints Valley without the backing of a faction.

Being bullied, there would even be nowhere to seek justice.

Yan Chu and Liu Sheng looked at Tangyu, falling silent for a while before Yan Chu said, "Tangyu, think it over, are you really not considering joining us?"

Tangyu nodded, "I’ve thought it over, not for now, and likely—not in the future either."

Hearing this, the two men had no words to say and were effectively silenced.

Liu Sheng shook his head in disappointment and stood up, "If that’s the case, we won’t impose any further and shall take our leave."

"Tangyu, I hope you will reconsider. However, since it’s your choice, there’s nothing we can do to change it. We’ll be going now, but if you need anything, come find me at any time," Yan Chu said.

After bidding farewell to Liu Sheng and Yan Chu and seeing them off, Liang Youshan widened his eyes in disbelief and said to Tangyu, "Boss, you actually rejected them, why? Are we really not going to join any faction? If we don’t join one of these five major powers, I’m afraid our path in Myriad Saints Valley will not be easy. Dong Zinian is from Morning Sun Hall. He definitely won’t let you go, and Morning Sun Hall will surely find a way to deal with you."

"Boss, your strength certainly isn’t a match for Dong Zinian yet, let alone Morning Sun Hall. Is it really okay to have rejected Myriad Saints Hall and Shocking King Hall like this?"

Tangyu replied resolutely, "I have my own sense of judgment. Since I’ve rejected them, naturally, I’ve thought about what’s to come. Don’t you trust me to handle matters?"

Seeing the serious expression on Tangyu’s face, Liang Youshan was caught off guard for a moment but quickly nodded and said, "Of course, I trust you wholeheartedly, Boss. Then what are our plans and intentions from now on, Boss Tangyu?"

Tangyu’s gaze shifted towards the distant horizon, and his eyes grew deep, "Why must we walk under someone else’s flag when we can forge our own path? The road of cultivation is endless and relies on oneself. External forces can only provide temporary embellishment but are not a long-term solution."

"Even if we join Myriad Saints Hall or Shocking King Hall, what good would it do for our cultivation? I doubt it would be substantial. Besides, with power comes obligation. If we joined a faction, we’d benefit from it, but we would also need to pay the dues it demands. We are men in our prime; why should we bow to others and follow their orders? We should aspire to be above others. The road we should take is the broad and direct Great Dao."

Tangyu’s words stirred Liang Youshan’s blood, making him think, why should we submit to others?

Although he wasn’t highly ambitious, since following Tangyu, he felt his aspirations soaring.

To live as a hero, to die as a legend; this is what Liang Youshan desired.

It might sound like a foolish dream, but Liang Youshan felt it wasn’t entirely impossible. He had stumbled upon a great fortune and was following Tangyu.

Tangyu continued, "I have some plans in my heart, although they are not yet fully formed or mature. Thus, I’ve never spoken of them to you. But since we’ve come this far today, I’ll share some of my thoughts with you."

Liang Youshan immediately nodded, listening intently and with a touch of excitement.

Tangyu gathered his thoughts and said, "Actually, it’s quite simple. We entered Myriad Saints Valley to make a name for ourselves, not to drift along with the current. If that’s the case, why can’t we create our own faction? If we could establish a faction and grow it rapidly, to stand alongside the five great powers, even surpass them to become the largest force in Myriad Saints Valley—doesn’t that seem meaningful and worth pursuing in life?"

"In this life, do we choose to be ordinary, or do we choose to blaze brightly?"

"Perhaps I once favored a mundane, ordinary life. But now I know that’s impossible because we are Ancient Martial Artists, and our world isn’t just the mundane world, but also the Ancient Martial World. So, if we can’t choose to be ordinary, let’s choose to blaze brightly. Princes and generals, is it not in their breeding to achieve? Don’t great deeds originate from one’s own efforts? Even the five great factions were created by people, weren’t they?"

"If others can do it, why can’t we?"

Astonished by the madness of the idea, Liang Youshan struggled to calm his emotions.

My goodness, creating a faction isn’t hard, but matching one of the five great factions is as tough as reaching the heavens.

The thought was indeed insane.

But madness doesn’t mean impossibility; it’s just that no one dares to dream it. Looking at the earnest Tangyu, Liang Youshan suddenly felt it might genuinely be possible. If it succeeded, the two of them would have established their own monumental success in the Ancient Martial Realm and made a grand achievement of their own.

The very thought was enough to set his blood on fire.

"Do you find it crazy?" Tangyu looked at Liang Youshan.

Liang Youshan nodded vigorously, "Yes, it’s insane. It’s something unimaginable."

Tangyu curled his lip and said, "You’re right not to dare think of it. If you did too, wouldn’t that make me look foolish? It’s only when others don’t dare to dream that I dare to, and not just dream but also to do it. That’s what sets me apart, showing my uniqueness and grandeur. Now, looking at me, what are your thoughts?"

"Uh..." Liang Youshan looked at Tangyu, grinned, and worshipfully uttered three words: "I’m floored!"
