Chapter 461: Chapter 120: Everyone is an Enemy [2,717,000 words.]_4 Chapter 461: Chapter 120: Everyone is an Enemy [2,717,000 words.]_4 Those who are ashamed of themselves and feel guilty are becoming more and more numerous.

Under the subtle psychology of self-reproach when exposed to self-scrutiny, a sense of ‘compensation’ is easily bred.

And the most direct and justifiable object of compensation at present is none other than the embodiment of Feng Yin – the killer, Gentle.

Thus, the number of supporters of Feng Yin is also increasing.

Because of various self-imposed restraints, I cannot become a hero, but at least I should not aim at heroes, nor hinder them, right?

People with the same mindset and understanding, this is exactly their state of mind.

However, the most intriguing coincidence at the moment is: Feng Yin kills without considering the feelings of others. He acts for himself alone, and kills for the sake of achieving his thoughts. The more pure his mind, the more justifiable his actions.

In such circumstances, with more and more benefactors assisting him, Feng Yin’s killing journey becomes more and more smooth, with more and more Heavenly Judgment assassination targets being eliminated.

Every inch of the three-thousand-mile road ahead has been dyed red with fresh blood.

And about five hundred miles ahead lies the territory of Broken Jade City.

At this moment, countless followers in the shadows whose loyalties are complex, can support Gentle in his killing spree, but they absolutely cannot truly oppose the official forces of Chu Country.

Each of them has their constraints, supporting Gentle up to this point is already their limit. Just as they dare not target those mission targets with background and foundation, they retreat three steps from national behemoth powers, still not far enough.

“I regret to say this, everyone.”

Countless high-ranking assassins of Chu Country started to retreat first.

“All we can do is not to seize his possessions, not to harm his life, and even withdraw from this conflict. It is already our extreme; we can never oppose our own country for his sake, this involves a stance and is irreversible!”

“But I sincerely hope that such a person can survive and live a long life.”

“Only such a person is fit to act on Heaven’s behalf and open eyes for the world!”

“Goodbye!”

As the Chu Country’s assassins withdrew collectively, a number of them hesitated for a long time, gritted their teeth and stamped their feet, finally made their decision to depart.

“We’re pulling out too.”

Assassins from outside Qin Country all withdrew, standing from the same perspective as Heavenly Judge assassins, they naturally admired and liked this stubborn lad.

Because, he did what they wanted to do in their hearts but actually couldn’t and dared not to do.

Maybe coming here, their unwavering intention was to capture this person and seize everything he has.

But now, they just silently leave, leaving only their blessings.

What remained were only assassins from the Great Qin.

And they could do nothing but forced smiles.

The Heavenly Judge does not distinguish between national borders, but the assassins of the Heavenly Judge do.

That those people did not add insult to injury was already surprising and a huge favor.

Wanting to expect them to assist Gentle together in challenging the siege is just impossible!

It involves stance, there’s absolutely no such logic!

But how to pass the checkpoint right before their eyes – Broken Jade City?

With hosts of soldiers and strict shutdown at the national gateway, outstanding experts stand everywhere, heavily fortified.

Gentle, how will you make it through?

Even with our help, can you make it through?

Just when everyone fell into melancholy and hesitated between advancing and retreating, suddenly everyone ‘s eyes contracted sharply at once.

A figure fluttered down lightly in front of them, standing outstandingly on the narrow path between the two mountains.

The man in wide robes and large sleeves, silver threaded hair at his temples, moved superbly, descending from the sky without even a puff of dust stirred.

Seeing this man arrive, the Heavenly Judge high-ranking assassins in the shadows and officials from the Great Qin dispatched to support Gentle and the Great Qin instructors who have always stayed put, instantly had their pupils contracted sharply.

The man said to Feng Yin lightly: “Indeed, heroes come from youths. Gentle, you are very good, really very good.”

At this moment, Feng Yin still appeared as the rough-looking man. Gazing at the elderly man who suddenly appeared, his aura was in no way weaker, he said indifferently: “Is it possible that the elderly man has mistaken me for the wrong person? On the way here, quite a few people called me Gentle.”

The elderly man raised his silver-threaded eyebrows and said softly: “Despite my age, my eyesight has not yet dimmed, and I wouldn’t accidentally recognize the wrong person.”

Feng Yin asked: “Is the elderly man looking for Gentle in order to kill him?”

The elderly man slowly nodded and said: “Correct.”

“The elderly man called me Gentle straight away, but I wonder what evidence you have to prove that I am indeed Gentle?”

Feng Yin slowly said: “If you were to kill the wrong person, wouldn’t you feel guilty?”

“I will not kill the wrong person.”

“So the elderly man means that even if you kill the wrong person, the dead person should have died? Is this what you mean? Such disregard for human life, truly an admired senior attitude, looking up to you greatly.”

The elderly man couldn’t help but laugh. He shook his head and said: “Truly, you are a quick-witted young man. However, if you knew who I am, then you’d understand why I am so confident that I won’t kill the wrong person.”

“Oh? May I ask the elderly man’s name?”

“I am Bright Mirror Heart Sword, Shi Jiutu.”

Feng Yin took a deep breath: “The National Mentor of Great Chu? Shi Jiutu?”

The elderly man slowly nodded: “Correct, it is indeed I.”

Feng Yin inwardly gasped.

Shi Jiutu, the National Mentor of Great Chu, a Heavenly Peak strongman who is also near the border of breakthrough, his life dedicated to the martial arts of Great Chu, having countless disciples under his roof spread throughout the land of Great Chu.

All disciples from his school are required to serve in the Chu military for a certain period of time. Even though his cultivation is far from reaching the level of Nine Colors Supreme.

But when it comes to influence, within the borders of Chu Country alone, However, his influence indeed is no less than that of the Nine Colors Supreme.

Feng Yin really didn’t expect that this kind of legendary figure would actually come for him in person.

Isn’t this just too much recognition for me?!

“To think that it was actually Grand Mentor Shi who had personally come, indeed gave me too much face.” Feng Yin sighed.

The elderly Shi Jiutu replied with a faint smile: “In my life, whenever I have made up my mind to kill, I have never made a mistake.”

“So, Mentor Shi’s implication is, all those who had been killed by you deserved to be killed and were all villains! Can I understand it this way?”

Shi Jiutu sighed slightly: “It used to be so, it was initially the conviction of my life, but today… it’s not.”

“Oh?”

“Heavenly Judge assassin Gentle, acts for Heaven, eradicates the violent and pacifies the good; walks the world, brings peace to mankind; a truly rare upright man in the world and truly a Dao cultivator with a merciful heart.”

“But due to my position, even in spite of my unwillingness, I can only kill him, and it will indeed be a matter of regret for the rest of my life.”

“However, if we let you return to Qin Country, ignoring even your innate talents, just the abundant spirit medicine supplies you are taking back would pose immense threat to us from Great Chu.”

“If you do not die, I fear millions of people from Great Chu will die because of it.”

“So this time, my personal appearance is to send you on your way myself. If you were to die at the hands of others, it would be an insult to you. A hero, should not die at the hands of nameless pawns.”

“With my rank, even if I were to kill you, I shouldn’t tarnish your honor.”

“I will feel guilty for a lifetime if I kill you, but if I do not kill you, I will blame myself for a lifetime. So let me bear this sin and carry the guilt for the rest of my life!”

Shi Jiutu respectfully bowed, and the old man bowed deeply, his white hair fluttering, and said solemnly: “Gentle, I apologize!”

……

[On the second day of my sobriety. I feel that I should be able to win.]
