Chapter 350: A Father Knows His Daughter the Best
Translator: Henyee Translations Editor: Henyee Translations
The girl had reached the Golden Core stage.
Vin wasn’t surprised though. She indeed had something special about her. It was almost intimidating when one got too close.
Vin wouldn’t be surprised even if Firey said she had reached the Nascent stage. She would only see her as a little genius.
“In that case, I’ll lead you to the tower!” Vin then looked at Himmel Soan.
This man was Firey’s guardian, so she thought she should tell him what was going to happen. “Are you alright with it?”
!!
Himmel Soan nodded. He didn’t know anything about the tower, so he was happy to have a guide.
Vin took Firey’s hand and led her to the tower. The previous student happened to come out after lighting the third level. Firey could go in now.
Vin took Firey to the entrance of the tower and told her what to expect once she went inside. After gaining a rudimentary idea, she entered the tower.
Vin went back and stood by Himmel Soan’s side.
“She’s your daughter, isn’t she? A father knows his daughter the best. How far do you think she can go?”
“Yes, she is.” After some consideration, he said, “At least the fifth level.”
At least the fifth level?
Vin wanted to take back what she said. Apparently, this father didn’t know his daughter that well. He was so arrogant!
When she told them what kind of students could reach a certain level, she was trying to tell the father to lower his expectations.
However, she was shocked by Himmel Soan’s confidence. Only geniuses could go beyond the fifth level, and the daughter of an ordinary man was definitely not going to be a genius.
“Let me ask you something. What do you think is the difference between cultivators and ordinary people?” Vin asked indifferently.
Himmel Soan thought for a while. He of all the people was qualified to answer this question.
When Gina disappeared, he searched the entire universe but couldn’t find her. In despair, he stopped resisting the law of nature and let himself get old. He even became demented and was thrown out of his house by his nanny.
He had lived many life circles as an ordinary man.
As a cultivator, he had reached a point where he was invincible. If he couldn’t answer that question, no one could.
“The lives of an ordinary man and a cultivator seem different, but they’re essentially the same.
“Ordinary people want to live a happy life for as long as they can.
“Cultivators also want to live a long life. To do that, they continuously improve their capability and raise their cultivation level to prolong their lives.
“It applies to all living creatures. Staying alive is their primary target, and everything else comes after that.
“When a life ends, so does everything else.”
Himmel Soan used common expressions in his explanation, making sure everybody could understand it. However, it didn’t mean they would agree with him, for instance, Vin.
“But some people find certain things more important than their lives and would die for them. That’s completely against what you just said!” Vin retorted.
She could find more examples and didn’t agree with what Himmel Soan said at all.
“When a person is willing to give up his life for certain things or people because they’re so important, even if that person dies, he’s still alive!
“However, if that person loses what’s most important to him, he’ll turn into a walking corpse!”
Himmel Soan grew agitated when he said those words. The air around them seemed to become thousands of times denser. Everybody around the tower sensed the terrifying pressure. They felt like ants in comparison.
However, the feeling disappeared almost immediately.
The crowd stood there for ten seconds without breathing. They thought their hearts were going to stop beating.
Vin stood right next to Himmel Soan and knew very well where that pressure came from. It was created by the man when he lost his cool.
She suddenly felt like a clown. The man she thought to be an ordinary person turned out to be a big shot!
“Sir, what you said was so true!” Vin bowed at Himmel Soan.
Everybody saw it. Their mouths fell open, and they didn’t know what to say. They had no idea what was going on. Why did Vin bow to an ordinary man?
“What was that? Why’s Vin bowing to that guy?”
“I have no idea. Does anyone know? Can anyone provide an explanation?”
“No one does. Why don’t we ask Vin? She must have the answer.”
“Why don’t you ask her? I don’t want her to smack me.”
“Maybe Vin wants to become that girl’s pupil. That’s why she bowed.”
“That’s possible!”
The crowd soon came up with an explanation that made sense to them.
Himmel Soan said quietly, “I used to be a walking corpse. Then I met Firey, and I’m only half-dead now.”
He gazed at the sky in silence. Vin didn’t say anything, fearing that she would distract the man.
Seeing this, the other students decided not to ask Vin.
There was a more important thing right now. The third level of the tower had just been lit. Firey had reached that level!
“The girl really is quite extraordinary. How many levels do you think she can reach?”
“I think four. She’s already done a great job. If she can light up the fourth level, she’ll be a genius!”
“Haven’t you realized how little time it took her to reach the third level? I don’t think it’ll take much longer for her to reach the fourth.”
“Maybe she can get to level six.”
“I think she’s definitely going to get there!”
