Chapter 362: Dai Huabin's Sudden Awakening (Merged Chapter)
"Huabin, don't be like this! No matter what, I will be with you!" Zhu Lu said with a look of heartache as she hugged Dai Huabin's collapsed body and choked with sobs.
"Get out! I don't need your pity! You bitch, don't you think I don't know what you have done with that Sima Jiang? Get out!" Dai Huabin pushed Zhu Lu away angrily.
Zhu Lu, who was pushed away, looked at the man in front of him whom he loved deeply with an expression of disbelief. He didn't understand where the confident, calm and high-spirited Dai Huabin had gone.
Why did everything turn out like this? Zhu Lu's eyes were filled with despair, and tears could no longer be suppressed.
"I didn't! Believe me, Huabin! I really didn't do anything!" Zhu Lu covered her face and cried in pain.
"Huabin, enough! All of this is your own fault!" Dai Yuheng, who was standing aside, said with great sorrow as he looked at the decadent Dai Huabin in front of him.
Even though the two brothers have always been in a competitive relationship, they are brothers after all. Blood is thicker than water, so he can feel the pain of his brother.
"Why? Why is everyone targeting me! What did I do wrong? Didn't I do that for the sake of everyone's safety? Just because he is Sima Jiang's apprentice, he has to treat me like this?" Dai Huabin roared like a madman. In his eyes, everything before him was unfair.
"I'll tell you why!" Dai Yaoheng slapped Dai Huabin hard in the face.
Dai Huabin was caught off guard and was blown dozens of meters away by his brother's angry attack. He rolled on the ground like a dead dog.
"Because you have offended someone you shouldn't have! After all, the world is ruled by strength! You are weak and can only bear it! If you want to get back everything you lost, don't whine to me here! Cheer up! My brother!" Dai Yuheng roared angrily.
"I don't accept it! I am the son of the Duke of White Tiger! I am the son of a hero!" Dai Huabin's eyes were filled with hatred, and he stood up with his fists clenched.
"You have lived in this glory for too long!" Dai Yuheng sighed helplessly as he looked at his brother who was full of hatred at the moment.
"As long as that guy dies, everything will be fine! Everything will be fine!" Dai Huabin's eyes were full of madness at this moment, and he shouted at his brother.
"Help me! Help me! Help me kill him! As long as he's dead!"
"Asshole! Don't you understand? Without the strength, it's useless what you say! You want to kill him, but you don't have the strength!" Dai Yuheng looked at the possessed Dai Huabin with helplessness on his face.
"What should I do? I'm willing to pay any price as long as I can kill him!" Dai Huabin rushed towards Dai Yuheng like a mad dog, and hugged his brother's thigh beggingly.
"Get lost!" Dai Yueheng's eyes were filled with coldness. He had completely lost hope for this worthless deposit.
"Give up the idea in your mind! If you dare to bring any disaster to the White Tiger Duke's Mansion, I will definitely kill you first!"
After saying that, Dai Yaoheng kicked Dai Huabin, who was holding his thigh, away and turned away without mercy.
"Brother! Don't go! Brother!" Dai Huabin pleaded weakly, but got no response at all, only the sound of footsteps getting farther and farther away.
With the departure of Dai Yuheng, Dai Huabin completely lost hope.
Zhu Lu, who was originally crying, gently hugged the sad Dai Huabin.
"Even if the whole world is against you, I will choose to stand on your side! Believe me!"
At this moment, Dai Huabin could no longer bear it, and hugged Zhu Lu tightly, saying with a sobbing voice:
"I am nothing now! Why are you still with me? Why are you still with me?"
He was a man after all, and he couldn't stand his woman being looked down upon because of him. The cruel words he said before were just to make her leave him.
However, Zhu Lu's gentleness finally broke down Dai Huabin's last line of defense, and he burst into tears.
Looking at Dai Huabin with his head buried deeply in her arms, Zhu Lu felt indescribable pain in her heart.
"Are you giving up just because of this? You, who inherited the Evil-Eyed White Tiger, are so fragile. I am really disappointed!"
A cold voice suddenly sounded in the room. The two assassins who were hugging each other stopped crying and looked around vigilantly.
The door that was originally half-closed was slowly pushed open, and the person who came into their sight was someone they had never expected.
"Sima Jiang!"
There was a strong sense of fear in Zhu Lu's voice of disbelief, and she subconsciously shielded Dai Huabin in her arms behind her thin body.
Dai Huabin looked at the figure he should have hated, but at this moment he unexpectedly calmed down. He slowly pushed away Zhu Lu who was in front of him, his eyes full of calmness and relief.
"Are you here to wipe out the roots? I did all this and it has nothing to do with my woman!" Dai Huabin's words were full of determination, and his last bit of pitiful pride disappeared.
"No! Even if we die, we want to die together!" Zhu Lu hugged Dai Huabin tightly.
"Idiot! It's better for one person to die than two people together, right? Don't avenge me, I deserve all this!" Dai Huabin stroked the lover in his arms, saying with tenderness in his eyes.
Even if Dai Huabin had a heart as cold as ice, it was eventually melted by this woman who had always been with him.
"Are you two going to be a pair of lovebirds with the same fate? You're making me look like an unforgivable villain!" Jiang Siming felt a little funny as he looked at the two people who seemed to be separated by life and death.
"If I really came here to wipe out the roots, do you think I would be so hesitant?" Jiang Siming spread his hands and said.
"Then why are you here? To laugh at me? Then you have achieved your goal! I can't beat you after all! I can't even beat your apprentice!" Dai Huabin replied coldly, his tone full of helplessness.
"When did I ever consider you as my opponent? Or is there anything about you that is worthy of me targeting you? It was you who pushed yourself into this desperate situation!" Jiang Siming looked at Dai Huabin with some pity.
A self-righteous person always feels that the whole world is against him. Even if he fails, he should not think that it is not his fault. This is the most tragic part of human beings!
"If you are here to humiliate me, then you have achieved your goal!" Dai Huabin gradually calmed down, staring at Jiang Siming with his eyes wide open.
"You're right! I did come here to humiliate you, but this humiliation is not given by me! It is given to you by yourself! Is living your life in self-pity like this the life you want?" Jiang Siming asked jokingly, crossing his arms over his chest.
"What on earth are you doing here? Saying such nonsense!" Dai Huabin lost his temper again and growled.
"The reason I came here may be that I feel a little reluctant! After all, there is some relationship between you and me." Jiang Siming sighed and said somewhat inexplicably.
In fact, even he himself didn't know why he came here. It might be because his surname was Dai, and the woman in his arms was surnamed Zhu.
People always have some thoughts when they are alive. Those people who were once familiar and the memories of the past are Jiang Siming’s current thoughts. They can never be erased and he can never really give them up.
"Your life has always been smooth sailing, so you don't want to fail. You can't stand your own failure. But with all the smooth sailing along the way, no one has made you understand that life is full of drama. You are in a nutshell, but you think you are the king of the world! You think you are a giant standing in a group of ants, but in the eyes of others, you are just a stronger ant. You can't accept your failure and blame others for targeting you! But you never thought that when you were a giant, you never looked down on the group of ants under your feet! What? This kind of thing happened to you, do you think it's unfair? Isn't this ridiculous?"
Jiang Siming's words were like a heavy hammer, hitting Dai Huabin's heart hard, making him feel like he was petrified and standing there like a wooden chicken.
"I have no obligation to teach you how to behave, nor do I have the heart to mock you. I just don't want to see the evil-eyed white tiger's spirit being insulted by someone like you! The reason your brother is stronger than you is not because he is older than you! But because he understands that if a person's heart is dead, no one can save him."
Jiang Siming had no interest in staying and had not even stepped into the door from the beginning. From beginning to end, Jiang Siming did not act condescendingly, his gaze was more like that of an elder caring for a younger person.
It was this point that made Dai Huabin, who originally thought that he still had a place in Jiang Siming's heart, even more painful. It turned out that in the other party's heart, he never took him seriously.
"Wait!" Dai Huabin didn't know what force made him speak.
But the footsteps that were originally leaving suddenly stopped and slowly came back.
"Anything else you want to say? My time is precious! There's no point in wasting it on a womanizer." Jiang Siming shook his head, but there was no sarcasm in his tone.
"Accept me as your disciple! I will definitely defeat you and prove it to you!" Dai Huabin growled, his eyes full of unwillingness.
"What you have to figure out is not to prove something to me, but whether you can convince yourself! Do you see yourself clearly?" Jiang Siming shook his head and said.
"Accept me as your disciple!" Dai Huabin repeated mechanically.
"Give me a reason, and give yourself a reason!"
"I want to become stronger, stronger than you!" Dai Huabin said it without any thought.
"So, why do you want to become stronger? There has to be a reason for doing things." Jiang Siming continued to ask.
"For my glory and for the glory of the White Tiger Duke's Mansion! For the people around me!" Dai Huabin looked at Zhu Lu standing beside him and said tenderly.
"Your answer satisfies me, but I will not accept you as my apprentice because you don't need it." Jiang Siming said and turned to leave. This time Dai Huabin did not try to keep him.
Dai Huabin and Zhu Lu, who were left alone in the room, looked at each other, speechless for a moment.
……
"Oh! Young people are young and full of energy!" Jiang Siming was walking on the road, humming a little tune, feeling very happy.
Jiang Siming didn't care whether Dai Huabin would change or not. No one could decide other people's lives according to their own ideas, not even the omnipotent God.
Besides, this is how the world is. Some people are born to be kings, but they cannot forget their failures. Some people are stuck in the mud, falling countless times, and once they break out of the mud, they will never return to the mud.
Although one's background largely determines whether a person is successful, a brave heart is even more important. It is possible to play a good hand of cards badly.
Dai Huabin and Huo Yuhao perfectly interpreted what is premature death and what is a counterattack!
Of course, such a comparison is inherently unfair. Although Dai Huabin has occupied the best resources since he was a child, the aura of the protagonist has always been on Huo Yuhao's head.
Essentially speaking, the seemingly disadvantaged Huo Yuhao gained more than the seemingly powerful Dai Huabin.
People always subconsciously think that Huo Yuhao was bullied because the two people started from different points.
Jiang Siming did not think that whatever Dai Huabin did was wrong, but due to preconceived notions, many people felt that Huo Yuhao was on the side of justice.
Right and wrong are vague concepts. People often overlook the right things a person did before because of a mistake. They also change their opinion of a person who has been doing wrong things because of a correct action of that person.
The reason why Jiang Siming gave Dai Huabin a chance was not only because his last name was Dai, but also so that he would not wipe out the glory of humanity because of his absolute power.
During this period, Jiang Siming found himself increasingly indifferent to feelings and vague about the concept of right and wrong. Strength gradually became the only criterion for Jiang Siming to judge everything.
……
In the White Tiger Duke's Mansion of the Xingluo Empire.
A woman in luxurious clothes was walking back and forth anxiously, cursing:
"Damn it! My son has suffered so much injustice in Shrek Academy. How can I, as a mother, just ignore it?"
"Madam, the young master was in the wrong first! We are not in the right!" The old butler on the side shook his head helplessly and said.
"So what? Do I, the second young master of the Duke of White Tiger, have to apologize like a pariah?" the elegant lady cursed angrily.
"But the person the Second Young Master offended this time is not an ordinary person! The grandson of the Peerless Sword Saint has a very high status! I hope Madam will wait for the master to come back before making a decision, and don't make things difficult for this old servant!" The old butler said respectfully. He had served the White Tiger Duke's Mansion for several generations, and his words carried some weight in this huge White Tiger Duke's Mansion.
"The Peerless Sword Saint! That old thing has been useless for a long time! What is there to be afraid of his grandson!" Madam Huagui said with a disdainful curl of her lips.
"Madam!" The old housekeeper suddenly raised his head and said with a worried look on his face:
"Madam, be careful with your words! The Peerless Sword Saint has indeed lost all his cultivation now, but the sky has not fallen in the Nine Treasures Glazed Tile Sect!"
