Exotic Battlefield: I Can Activate Dual Talents-Chapter 534 - 413: War of Words

However, even though he acknowledged it in his heart, Wu Han’s attitude remained unfriendly. He sneered and said:

"I didn’t expect you to know these four sacred sayings."

"To establish a heart for Heaven and Earth means to let my heart become the heart of Heaven."

"To establish a destiny for the people means to let my destiny become the destiny of all living beings."

"To carry on the extinct learning of past sages means to inherit the mantle of the deceased sages and become a new sage."

"To establish peace for all future generations means that if I accomplish the previous three tasks, I can open a peaceful and prosperous era for my descendants."

Lu Lin stared blankly at Wu Han in front of him, unable to believe that these words came from someone who prided himself on being a scholar.

With the federation’s advanced technology, even documents from thousands of years ago should be preserved intact. How could these four phrases be so misinterpreted?

"Hahaha, what a self-centered theory. No wonder the classics of the ancestors are now rarely studied and understood."

"The root of evil actually lies with people like you!"

Lu Lin pointed at Wu Han’s nose and scolded him harshly.

"As for carrying on the extinct learning of past sages, with your interpretation, it’s as if the sages would climb out of the history books just to settle accounts with you."

Then Lu Lin, seeing Wu Han’s embarrassed expression, explained the true meaning of these four phrases.

"Wu Han, do you know this is the true significance of the four phrases spoken by the ancient philosophers of Hua Xia?"

"Reading mindlessly, reading dead text, you’ve sullied the title of scholar."

"Good!"

Old Taoist Priest Zhenxuan couldn’t help but applaud loudly as soon as Lu Lin finished speaking.

The words Lu Lin just spoke conveyed a spirit of righteousness, a noble aura that seemed to burst forth and shoot straight up to the sky.

"Clap! Clap! Clap!"

Even Yang Kuiyuan, the Sect Leader of Heng Mountain Sect, couldn’t help but applaud.

The Shaolin Temple Abbot kept his eyes lowered, seemingly indifferent to the outside world.

Only Wu Han’s face turned as red as a pig’s liver.

Under everyone’s gaze, Wu Han wished he could find a hole to hide in.

Finally, just as Lu Lin was about to speak, Wu Han, fearing he might say something even more shocking, quickly teleported away.

Gone?

Gone!

Wu Han’s move surprised everyone present. Lu Lin just spoke a few words, and it drove him away?

Or should it be said, it humiliated him away?

Yang Kuiyuan of the Heng Mountain Sect swallowed his saliva, ultimately deciding not to argue with Lu Lin.

He simply stated his purpose directly.

In the moments that followed, the Shaolin Temple Abbot was depressed, and the Jixia Academy’s curator left in shame and anger. It seemed arguing with Lu Lin would lead to no good end.

"Lu Lin, I didn’t come here to argue with you. I just want the treasure of my Heng Mountain Sword Sect returned. As long as you return the treasure, I’ll leave immediately."

"Oh?"

"Then may I ask Sect Master Yang, could you tell me what your Heng Mountain Sword Sect’s treasure is? If I indeed took it by mistake, I will gladly return it with both hands."

"This... this... this..."

Yang Kuiyuan was at a loss for words after all his stammering.

But Zhenxuan next to him was deeply moved by the situation.

Previously, when the bosses of Shaolin, Heng Mountain, and Jixia told him someone would come to steal Wudang Mountain’s treasured artifact, Zhenxuan was also puzzled.

This sect treasure is shapeless, colorless, and only resides within this mountain, deep within the clouds, in an unknown location.

They had explored Wudang Mountain for years, using various modern scientific equipment and metaphysical geomancy, all to no avail.

They only knew the treasure was beneath the South Cliff of Wudang Mountain, but no trace of the treasure could be found despite all efforts.

They even used resource satellites to survey the area with no results.

So, how did Lu Lin manage to take this treasure?

At the same time, Zhenxuan was extremely curious about what the treasure truly was.

"Sect Master Yang, don’t tell me that as the leader of Heng Mountain Sword Sect, you don’t even know what your sect’s treasure is, yet you accuse me of stealing it. Isn’t that somewhat of an accusation?"

"I think you three major sects should take a trip to the Detective Department."

"No, I’m not accusing you, Lu Lin. Our Heng Mountain Sword Sect has been established for a thousand years. How could we falsely accuse you?"

"However, our sect’s treasure had always existed, but it disappeared as soon as you arrived. Doesn’t that seem suspicious?"

"Coincidentally, after visiting my Heng Mountain, Mount Tai, and Mount Song, the treasures of these three sacred places also disappeared. Do you think such coincidences happen in the world?"

"Oh?"

Lu Lin raised an eyebrow, "So you three accuse me of stealing your treasure based merely on speculation and conjecture, without any concrete evidence?"

"Hahaha, how absurd this is, truly ridiculous."

Yang Kuiyuan’s face twisted in embarrassment.

He truly didn’t know what the sect treasure was.

Nevertheless, he was certain that Lu Lin was behind it.

After all, why would an ordinary tourist visit places like Heng Mountain, Mount Tai, and Mount Song with such clear intentions? Lu Lin aimed to traverse every sacred place.

"Sect Master Yang, I understand that you find me highly suspicious, right?"

"I’ll be straightforward; I did take the treasures from your three major sects. Moreover, tonight, I’ll also take the treasure from Wudang Mountain. Then, I’ll seize the treasures from Huang Mountain and overseas... uh, I mean in other continents as well."

"These treasures, which you regard highly, have deeper complexities. You can’t grasp their significance."

"Hear my advice: after returning, focus sincerely on your cultivation. It’s far better to eliminate a few more Alien Races for the Federation and Humans than to become entangled in these trivial matters."

"There are currently over 500 Titled Kings in the federation now. Do you really need these so-called sacred places that can only cultivate to the Ninth-Level Peak?"

"People should always look forward."

"What!"

"You’re not only taking the treasures from my five sects, but you’re also seizing the treasures from Pharaoh’s Pyramid, the Babylonian Temple, Bai Na Goddess Sect, and Superman Research Laboratory?"

"Lu Lin, you, you plan to become an enemy of the entire Human Federation?" 𝘧𝓇ℯℯ𝑤ℯ𝘣𝓃ℴ𝓋𝑒𝑙.𝑐𝘰𝑚

Yang Kuiyuan looked at Lu Lin in disbelief.

"Become an enemy of the federation?"

"Heh heh."

"I’m curious; having traveled so far, you three sects know my name is Lu Lin but haven’t thoroughly checked my background?"

"You should have seen the opening of the University Games, right?"

"Hello, hello, can you hear me?"

"You should at least understand this reference."

With each word Lu Lin uttered, Yang Kuiyuan’s expression darkened further.

Their sects, always focused on their own cultivation, paid no heed to the federation’s developments or the Exotic Battlefield events. Consequently, they were unauthorized to access Lu Lin’s dossier.

Furthermore, since their existence was limited to their immediate environments, they were oblivious to the outside world, unaware of Lu Lin’s spectacle at the University Games’ opening ceremony.

Yet, Lu Lin’s catchphrase, "Hello, hello, can you hear me," was known by everyone in the federation.

Could the Lu Lin before them really be a Titled King?
