While Lin Zhong was talking to Aunt Meng, Su Miao, Feng Nan, Xuena and other girls all pricked up their ears and listened intently, fearing to miss even a single word.

Gossip is a woman's nature, even if you are as good as them, you are not immune to it.

Not everyone is qualified to listen to the gossip of the Zhenguo Martial Saint Du Huaizhen.

Faced with Lin Zhong's denial, Aunt Meng laughed, deliberately putting on the airs of a senior, and said in an old-fashioned way: "Brother Lin, don't be so absolute first. As the saying goes, the authorities are obsessed with it, and bystanders know it. You are in the middle of the situation, so of course you have no problem.

As an outsider, I can see clearly."

Lin Zhong was speechless, but he didn't want to argue with Aunt Meng, as that would be meaningless, so he simply spread his hands and said, "Okay, what do you think, I'm all ears."

"Wait for me to stroke it."

Aunt Meng returned to her original position and sat down. She did not speak immediately, as if she was thinking about what to say.

After a while, she said calmly: "Brother Lin, if I remember correctly, you seem to be an orphan, right?"

Lin Jing nodded: "Yes."

"Never met your parents?"

"right."

"Don't you think that compared to your life experience, your martial arts qualifications are so amazing? You only started to learn martial arts when you were a teenager, without the guidance of a master. In just a few years, you became the youngest Danjin Grand Master. This is unprecedented.

Not everyone can achieve such a miracle." Aunt Meng said slowly.

Lin Zhong raised his eyebrows: "You mean that my current achievements have nothing to do with my personal efforts, but the inheritance from my parents?"

"If you want to achieve success in martial arts, although hard work is indispensable, qualifications are more important."

Aunt Meng's expression was calm, as if she didn't hear the sarcasm hidden in Lin Zhong's words: "Brother Lin, please ask yourself, there are thousands of warriors in the world, why are you the only one who can rise to the top?"

Lin Zhong was suddenly speechless.

He had to admit that what Aunt Meng said made sense.

"I don't know who my parents are. They may be fragile mortals, or they may be powerful warriors. It is indeed possible that my talent comes from them."

Lin Zhong first agreed with Aunt Meng's speculation, and then suddenly changed the subject: "Even so, it does not prove that I am related to His Excellency Du Huaizhen."

"What kind of person is Mr. Du Huaizhen in your eyes?"

Aunt Meng gave Lin Zhong a calm look, then turned to ask Su Miao and Feng Nan who were listening quietly.

The two women have lived in the capital for many years and have come into contact with many important figures, so they have the best say on this issue.

Su Miao was wiping the water stains on her clothes with a handkerchief. When she heard this, she paused and said thoughtfully: "It seems that as long as I can remember, His Excellency Du Huaizhen has been living in Zhige Garden. However, he is very mysterious and lives in seclusion.

, rarely appears in public, and never participates in various activities organized by the Wu League and the family. To the residents of the capital, he is more like a symbol than a real person."

"Due to work, I have met Mr. Du Huaizhen several times. The first time was eight years ago. At that time, he still retained some aura of being human."

Feng Nan took over, his eyes flashing with thought: "But when I saw him again a few days ago, I almost didn't recognize him. He gave me the feeling that he was like a god far away from the world, aloof.

He is indifferent and heartless, treating all things like ants, and does not care about anything in the world."

After the two women finished speaking, Aunt Meng looked at Lin Zhong again: "Brother Lin, do you think they are right?"

Lin Zhong recalled the meeting with Du Huaizhen in his mind, and nodded slightly: "Your Excellency Du Huaizhen has nothing else in his heart except martial arts."

"I know your Excellency Du Huaizhen better than you do."

Aunt Meng lowered her eyes and fell into memories: "I used to be the Supreme Elder of the Guanghan Sect, and I had many dealings with the Martial Alliance. The Du Huaizhen of the past was definitely not what he is now. He just seemed like a different person."

"He told me that there is another realm above Gangjin, called Taishang Wangqing. If you want to step into the state of Taishang Wangqing, you must cut off all ties with the mortal world."

Lin Zhong looked around, his eyes passing over the faces of the women, and finally resting on Aunt Meng's face: "He also said that what he pursues is not to end love and sex, but to find the true nature and abandon those external things that hinder his progress.

Only keep your purest heart."

Aunt Meng's body trembled, and for the first time a look of surprise appeared on her face: "He actually told you such a thing?"

Lin Zhong was silent.

"I am more and more convinced that you are the illegitimate son of His Excellency Du Huaizhen."

Aunt Meng's eyes sparkled with the excitement of knowing some kind of secret: "How else to explain that he can even put down the martial alliance he founded, abandon his loyal subordinates, and ignore the apprentices he personally trained?

, but they treat you differently?"

Aunt Meng's attitude was so firm that even Su Miao and Feng Nan who were watching the show couldn't help but nod in agreement.

"There's just one problem."

Lin Zhong decided to make Aunt Meng give up completely, so he raised a finger and asked: "His Excellency Du Huaizhen is over one hundred and thirty years old. In recent decades, he has been practicing in seclusion in Zhige Garden. If

I am his illegitimate son, when did he give birth to me?"

Aunt Meng was stunned for a moment.

She opened her mouth, wanting to answer, but she didn't know how to speak.

This is probably because the question raised by Lin Zhong can be said to go straight to the core and kill with a fatal blow.

Seeing Aunt Meng's depressed look, Lin Zhong couldn't help but laugh and laugh, and took the initiative to help her: "Actually, your reasoning was wrong from the beginning. The reason why His Excellency Du Huaizhen chose me was just because I was the most suitable to inherit his position.

That’s all.”

"How do you know?"

Aunt Meng was still a little unconvinced.

Lin Zhong shrugged: "He told me personally."

Aunt Meng was even more speechless and muttered: "Isn't this reason too far-fetched? It's completely unconvincing."

"When you reach the level of Mr. Du Huaizhen, you should treat people as you please, without any taboos, and you don't need any reason at all."

Lin Zhong said seriously: "Although I don't agree with some of his actions, I have to admit that he has an impressive demeanor and magnanimity."

"You mean, I don't have it on me?"

Aunt Meng heard the softness in Lin Zhong's words, rolled her eyes angrily, got up and walked out of the pavilion: "Forget it, you guys can talk, I'll go practice."

She walked very fast and disappeared in the blink of an eye, leaving several girls in the pavilion looking at each other.

"You, Aunt Meng is an elder after all, can't you save some face for her?"
