Cultivation Simulator: Shocking the Academy-Chapter 489 - 342 Li Qingyue is My Successor

Luo Chen ignored Li Xin’s angry curses, went straight back to the original spot, put down his backpack, and then closed his eyes to rest. It seemed like he had already forgotten the argument and conflict just now, his face full of calm and composure.

The White-haired Monk looked at this scene and couldn’t help but exclaim, "Big brother, your skill of taking advantage of others’ misfortunes is quite perfected, even the monk finds you very despicable!" His tone carried a hint of teasing and mockery.

Luo Chen snorted coldly, "Are you praising me or criticizing me?" A hint of displeasure flashed in his eyes, seemingly not satisfied with the monk’s comment.

The White-haired Monk hastily explained, "Of course, I’m praising you! Actually, the monk feels that sometimes, big brother, you are too kind, not like a villain, completely at odds with your wicked reputation... Ah, if it were other fighters, things would be much simpler."

Luo Chen curiously asked, "How so?" He seemed intrigued by the monk’s words, wanting to know more.

The White-haired Monk explained, "It’s very simple, if it were other fighters, they might choose to resort to torture to force out the training method of the Yi Arrow Skill. Then they’d kill and silence afterwards, erasing all evidence, it’s not as complicated as necessary." His words revealed a sense of cruelty and indifference, as if such things were perfectly normal to him.

After listening, Luo Chen fell into a silence. He seemed to be contemplating the monk’s words; reflecting on his own actions. After a while, he slowly spoke, "Maybe you’re right, but I have my own principles when doing things. Although I want to learn the Yi Arrow Skill, I won’t obtain it through such despicable means." 𝚏𝐫𝚎𝗲𝕨𝐞𝐛𝕟𝚘𝐯𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝗺

The White-haired Monk nodded, a hint of an approving smile appeared on his face. It seemed he didn’t expect Luo Chen to have such a reaction and respected him more for it.

However, the White-haired Monk didn’t seem ready to give up the opportunity to persuade Luo Chen. He continued, "Big brother, there’s still time actually. That girl is quite good-looking, if you’re willing, you can silence..." His words were abruptly cut off by Luo Chen’s stern interruption.

"Enough! I am not that kind of person. Although I want the Yi Arrow Skill, I won’t sacrifice others to achieve my goal." Luo Chen’s voice carried a sense of determination and boldness, making the White-haired Monk feel a twinge of shame. He realized he might be too utilitarian and cruel and had overlooked the principles and bottom lines of being human. So, in the monk’s silence, the two continued forward.

"Are you really the White-haired Monk?" Luo Chen sighed softly, his gaze revealing a hint of doubt and inquiry.

The White-haired Monk smiled slightly, his expression unperturbed, "Genuine, without a doubt." His voice was steady and powerful, as if carrying a convincing force.

Luo Chen frowned slightly, somewhat puzzled, "If I kill her, what benefit does it bring you?" He asked directly, trying to probe the motive behind all this.

The White-haired Monk shook his head, "None." He admitted frankly, without the slightest sign of concealment or scheming on his face.

Luo Chen was even more confused, "Why do you insist on urging me to kill an innocent girl?" His tone carried a hint of dissatisfaction and questioning.

The White-haired Monk coughed lightly twice, then slowly said, "Ahem... Big brother, this isn’t encouragement, the monk is trying to cultivate your murderous aura. Look at you, a notorious person on the list of villains, but hesitant in action, how can you cut the supreme path and go against the heavens? A villain must have the demeanor of a villain, possess the ferocity of a villain, exude a domineering aura that swallows mountains and rivers, to make people fear at the sound of your name. Only then can you quickly enhance your strength."

Luo Chen remained silent, but internally, waves were surging. He recalled his previous actions, always seeming too cautious, every step like treading on thin ice. "Hesitant in action..." He muttered to himself, as if reflecting on his past.

Seeing this, the White-haired Monk continued, "Indeed, big brother. The monk has been observing all your actions. Your ways are too cautious and meticulous, thinking through every step carefully, although it’s steady, it also misses many opportunities. This world is full of those who bully the gentle and fear the wicked, if you keep conceding, others will only become more aggressive. So why not be more decisive and become a true villain? Wherever you go, like that enigmatic Exiled Immortal, instill fear and awe so that no one dares provoke easily."
