Chapter 1362: Chapter 1361: Gu Lingfei’s Bloodline
If it had been anyone else who said this, Gu Tongtian would have simply thought him too arrogant.
An arrogant person indeed!
However, when these words came from Lin Dong, Gu Tongtian did not think so.
Because he agreed with the statement.
For a monster like Lin Dong, if given time, just a few decades or even less would suffice, not even a century, he might truly be capable of suppressing all Hidden Clans of his era.
Achieving the feat of becoming the foremost person of his age!
Gu Tongtian nodded and said, "So Young Friend Lin, aside from discussing matters about your father, my purpose in seeking you out this time is also to stop you from heading to the Capital City!"
"Today, although your strength is already formidable, you even have the capability to fight an ordinary Ninth Level Grandmaster."
"But heading to the Capital City, I can only say that you are surely doomed. Your current strength simply cannot match King Kunlun."
"King Kunlun’s power is beyond your imagination."
Lin Dong was startled and hurriedly asked, "Could it be that King Kunlun has also made a breakthrough into the Heavenly Realm?"
Facing someone of the Heavenly Realm, Lin Dong naturally would be powerless!
Gu Tongtian shook his head, "He hasn’t truly stepped into the Heavenly Realm, but his strength is comparable to that of the Heavenly Realm."
"King Kunlun, like your father, is one of those supreme geniuses. Unfortunately, he was born in your father’s era and thus could only be suppressed by him as the second best."
"Had he been born an era earlier, then he too would have been the one to suppress that era."
Lin Dong pondered for a moment, then cupped his hands and shook his head, saying:
"Thank you for your kind intentions, Senior Gu, but I won’t change the decisions I’ve made."
"I am quite fond of a phrase: If one departure means never returning, then let it be a departure without return!"
"If I were to hide and cower like a turtle, that wouldn’t be me. My Martial Way knows no retreat. Faced with injustices, I kill! Faced with wicked people, I execute! If I can’t do this while cultivating the Martial Way, then what’s the use of my cultivation?"
Listening to Lin Dong’s words, Gu Tongtian suddenly understood why Lin Dong, despite his young age, had achieved such accomplishments in the Martial Way.
A Martial Artist’s external giftedness is important, but what is most crucial is the Heart of a Martial Artist.
And Lin Dong possessed both!
Could such a person ever become mediocre among the masses?
"Well then, since you are resolute, I can only offer you my blessings," Gu Tongtian sighed.
Lin Dong bowed slightly, "Regardless, I must thank Senior Gu for telling me these things today."
"And thank you for your kind intentions."
"But Senior Gu, there’s something I don’t understand. I killed your brother, I killed your descendant Gu Lingjun, why then, do you treat me this way?"
Logically, even if Gu Tongtian and his brother Gu Lingjun did not see eye to eye. Even if he and his own father were old friends, good friends.
Yet I still killed them after all.
As a member of the Gu Family, even if not seeking revenge against Lin Dong, at the very least, there wouldn’t be such kindness toward Lin Dong.
Gu Tongtian, upon hearing Lin Dong’s query, hesitated for a moment, then suddenly stood up and said to Lin Dong, "Young Friend Lin, please come with me."
Lin Dong was puzzled, not knowing where Gu Tongtian intended to take him.
However, seeing Gu Tongtian’s kindness towards him, Lin Dong did not ask further and got up to follow him.
Accompanied by Gu Tongtian, Lin Dong arrived deep within the Gu residence, in the Gu Family’s ancestral hall.
In the center of this hall, many spirit tablets were placed densely together.
After Gu Tongtian bowed and paid his respects to them, he then pointed to a stone monument beside him and said to Lin Dong:
"Young Friend Lin, this monument is a relic left by my ancestors."
"We in the Gu family call it the Wordless Monument of Heaven!"
"Before, there were no characters on it. However, twenty-one years ago, a few large characters suddenly appeared on this monument."
Lin Dong looked towards the ’Wordless Monument of Heaven,’ and indeed saw a row of vivid golden characters.
Those golden characters seemed alive, flickering in and out of visibility.
They were:
’The East has Lin, the Gu family shall prosper!’
Seeing this, Lin Dong was utterly baffled.
He asked Gu Tongtian, "Senior Gu, what does this mean?"
Gu Tongtian pondered for a while before he replied, "At first, I also did not know what it meant."
"But later, I had a speculation!"
"The eight characters that appeared on this monument might mean that our Gu family is going to prosper, and our prosperity is related to someone with the surname Lin."
"This person surnamed Lin will lead our Gu family to revival."
As Lin Dong thought about it, he felt that it was indeed likely to mean this.
Gu Tongtian continued, "Previously I thought that the person surnamed Lin was your father, Lin Zhantian, but later I discovered I was wrong."
"It’s not your father, but you, Lin Dong!"
"The East has Lin, it must be referring to you!"
"Ah?" Lin Dong was dumbfounded. "Your Gu family’s revival is related to me?"
"Yes," said Gu Tongtian. "Of course, how exactly you are going to revive our Gu family, I am not sure."
"But according to your cultivation talent, if you do not die, as long as you are willing to support our Gu family, you can definitely fulfill what was prophesied in the Wordless Monument of Heaven."
"So, for the sake of our Gu family, I also wished to stop you from heading to the Capital City."
Upon hearing this, Lin Dong suddenly understood.
So that was it.
No wonder this Gu Tongtian had always been so friendly to him.
He thought he was the one who would lead their Gu family to revival.
It seemed Gu Tongtian did not lack the desire to revive their Gu family, but he was incapable of achieving it. Therefore, he placed his hopes on the prophecy of the Wordless Monument of Heaven.
Lin Dong could not help but feel amused and said, "Senior Gu, such mysterious matters should not be taken seriously."
However, Gu Tongtian said, "No no no, this is our Gu family’s Wordless Monument of Heaven. Its prophecy will absolutely not be wrong."
"Furthermore, I have a premonition that our Gu family’s revival might be related to that girl Ling Fei ..."
Lin Dong was startled and hurriedly asked, "Senior Gu, why would you think that?"
"Because Ling Fei, for so many years, is the one with the purest Gu family bloodline, reaching over ninety percent ..."
"It’s just very strange, she can’t cultivate the Martial Way. I once tried to teach her to cultivate martial arts, but she simply cannot."
"Her bloodline power, we can’t unlock it."
Lin Dong was also quite surprised, as he had not noticed anything particularly special about Gu Lingfei’s constitution before!
Her Gu family bloodline does not belong to one of the Nine Great Constitutions.
"Young Friend Lin, please take more care of our Ling Fei in the future. Perhaps you are the one who can unlock her bloodline ..."
Gu Tongtian murmured.
