Chapter 2593: Chapter 2613: I’m not leaving, I want to stay and help you!

Does he truly deserve to die?

Zhen Liuxue’s gaze burned as she stared at Lin Chen, "The truth?"

Lin Chen nodded, "If the facts are indeed such, he certainly deserves death. I have always believed that in cultivation, one cannot extinguish humanity. If one cares about nothing but purely becoming stronger, then that is no longer human, but merely a powerful monster."

"Immortals, immortals, those who become immortals, ’immortal’ represents a realm, a strength, yet the main body is ultimately human. One should not stop being human just because one’s realm has risen and strength increased, losing all humanity."

"Strong as he may be, his actions are indeed inhumane; he deserves death."

Lin Chen spoke decisively, without any hesitation.

These were his heartfelt words, with no deceit.

As Lin Chen said, how strong someone is, is a matter of strength, and whether or not they should be killed, or deserve death, does not conflict. At most, it just means that he is strong and not easy to kill.

Lin Chen’s cultivation philosophy has always placed "human" at the core. Even now, as a Daluo Ultimate Immortal, his strength can be considered quite formidable in the entire Immortal Realm, yet in his heart, he still believes he is a person, at most just with greater abilities.

Lin Chen’s stance made Zhen Liuxue very satisfied. Although she never expected Lin Chen to exert any effort on her behalf, having one more person sincerely cursing the Myriad Immortals Hall Master, truly believing that he deserves death, was quite comforting to her.

"The matter has concluded, let’s go."

"Wait."

Lin Chen pointed toward Yue Chengtian in the distance, "He came here looking for his mother and almost got sold off by someone. Our initial intention in coming here included bringing him over as well. His strength isn’t anything notable, so there’s not much use in following the Cave Master. Why not let him swear an oath to keep the secret and let him search for his relatives?"

Zhen Liuxue’s gaze swept over Yue Chengtian and she nodded slightly. She didn’t place much importance on the origin-less Yue Chengyun.

Since Lin Chen had spoken up, she should give him face and let Yue Chengtian leave.

Lin Chen felt relieved, just about to turn around and speak, when Yue Chengtian suddenly said, "Brother, I won’t leave, I can help you!"

Lin Chen’s expression changed slightly, and he said angrily, "Help what? With what strength do you have? Are you seeking death?"

Yue Chengtian’s face turned red, "Brother, I know you want the best for me, but my life was saved by you. Although my strength isn’t much, I am proficient in various Array Formations, and I can help you."

Lin Chen scolded, "Quit talking nonsense, hurry up and swear the oath, then get lost, go find your mother!"

Yue Chengtian stubbornly said, "No, I really can help you!"

Seeing Lin Chen would not agree, Yue Chengtian then turned to look at Zhen Liuxue, "Cave Master, keep me here. As long as you name the Array Formation and provide me with enough Formation Materials, I can create them!"

Zhen Liuxue’s eyes lit up, "You are also a talent in Array Formation?"

Lin Chen was speechless now; this kid really wasn’t afraid of death.

He knew fully well that Yue Chengtian admired and felt grateful to him, but the tasks our group was undertaking were the sort where a small slip could lead to death. Looking at the current situation, this was called rebellion, and it could cost us our heads. Why would you carelessly meddle in this!

Do you really not care that you’ve just picked up a spare life?

Yue Chengtian nodded, "Yes, Cave Master. If you don’t believe me, you can test me!"

Zhen Liuxue turned to look at Lin Chen, and he sighed, "Yes, he truly is very talented in Array Formation and can create many of them."

Since Yue Chengtian had already spoken for himself, Lin Chen had no choice but to reveal the truth and answer honestly.

Zhen Liuxue said with a smile, "What I’m doing involves risking death. Aren’t you afraid of dying? Lin Chen wants you to live a peaceful life, without losing your little life."

Yue Chengtian spoke earnestly, "I know Brother wants what’s best for me. Both he and my Sister-in-law are great people. I also know that what you, Cave Master, are about to do is very dangerous. Opposing Myriad Immortal Hall may very well lead to death. But that’s exactly why I want to stay, in hopes that my Array Formations can help Brother."

Yue Chengtian was candid; his desire to stay was not to aid the Cave Master but to assist Lin Chen.

To repay a debt of gratitude!

Zhen Liuxue turned her head to look at Lin Chen, Lin Chen looked at Yue Chengtian, and Yue Chengtian turned his gaze back to Zhen Liuxue.

Seeing this, Lin Chen knew Yue Chengtian was determined to stay. He sighed internally, then turned to Zhen Liuxue, "Cave Master, his talent in Array Formation is excellent, but his combat power is lacking. It’s fine if he stays, but let him avoid any battle-related tasks as much as he can."

Zhen Liuxue understood Lin Chen’s intention clearly; it was a subtle way of setting conditions.

He was allowed to stay, and could help with matters related to Array Formations, but he needed to be protected and should not be involved in combat.

Zhen Liuxue fixed her eyes on Lin Chen, a hint of amusement showing, "You really are a great person, aren’t you?"

Lin Chen felt rather awkward; these words, meant as praise, somehow felt so strange to hear.
