“No problem!” Lin Yun replied with a smile.
“Come with me.” Master Gui immediately headed towards the depths of the White Horse Manor, and Lin Yun quickly followed.
…
Over these five years, his mother had come to see Lin Yun several times each year, but as for his own father, he had not come at all.
Lin Yun was not surprised, after all, he was now a useless person who could no longer cultivate, and his father was very busy; in five years’ time, Lin Yun even felt that his father had probably long forgotten about him.
Back when he was in the Lin Residence, his father would at least check on Lin Yun’s cultivation results, but now there was no longer any interaction.
As for his mother, Madam Yan, every time she came, Lin Yun would urge her to leave early; it was not that Lin Yun did not want to reunite with Madam Yan.
Rather, Lin Yun did not want his mother to see the way he suffered…
And over these five years, Lin Yun had also undergone considerable change; under the daily training, Lin Yun seemed to have been forged into a sharp blade with an edge.
Even though he was only ten years old, his willpower and temperament were already extremely strong and mature, even a single glance was sharp and incisive, utterly different from an ordinary ten-year-old child, it was like heaven and earth apart.
This was completely tempered out.
Children who grow up in adversity are destined to mature earlier.
Master Gui led Lin Yun to a stone hut in the back mountain of the White Horse Manor.
Master Gui brought Lin Yun into the stone hut.
The stone hut was not large, and in front there was a stone platform.
“Young Master Lin Yun, I spent five years building this place, inside this stone platform there is a simple formation, Young Master Lin Yun, go up onto the stone platform.” Master Gui said.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yun directly leaped onto the stone platform.
“I am going to activate the formation, Young Master Lin Yun, get ready.” After Master Gui finished speaking, he opened the formation on the stone platform.
Buzz!
Lin Yun instantly felt a beam of golden light descending from the heavens, like a waterfall cascading down from ten thousand metres in the sky, fiercely pouring onto Lin Yun’s body!
Lin Yun immediately staggered, feeling as if his body had been struck by a tremendous force, and finally he fell straight to the ground.
Fortunately, that light was not a solid object, just like flowing water, it would not cause Lin Yun too much harm.
It was just that the impact was too great, making Lin Yun’s entire body ache.
“Lin Yun, stand steady, plant your legs in a horse stance, your lower body must be stable, this is to temper your body!” Master Gui said.
“Yes!” Lin Yun responded, immediately standing up and assuming a horse stance, clenching his teeth tightly.
Boom!
The golden light descended once more, fiercely impacting Lin Yun’s body, Lin Yun was once again sent staggering backwards, and finally fell heavily.
But Lin Yun immediately stood up, returned to the centre of the stone platform, and once again steadied his horse stance to welcome the impact!
Boom! Boom!
The golden flowing light, like a golden waterfall, continuously impacted downwards, each time with an interval of about three seconds.
Master Gui and Gui Yuanyuan stood to the side watching.
“Father, he is really amazing, knocked back and falling time after time by the impacts, yet climbing up again and again to continue, and he is only ten years old.” Gui Yuanyuan gazed at Lin Yun’s figure on the stone platform, shock flickering in her beautiful eyes.
Over these five years, Gui Yuanyuan had also stayed in the manor, so she had witnessed all the hardships Lin Yun had endured in these five years.
She truly could not imagine how Lin Yun, at such a young age, had managed to persist through these five years; if it were her, she would not last even five days…
“Young Master Lin Yun is indeed a very strong, brave, and perseverant child, the kind of training he is enduring now, even if an adult were to do it, among ten thousand people, it would be hard to find even one who could persist.” A pleased smile appeared on Master Gui’s face.
Master Gui then shook his head with a sigh: “He is stronger than the other young masters of the Lin family by who knows how many times, it is just a pity that fate has toyed with him, making such an outstanding child endure far more pain and hardship than a child of his age should have to bear, if his father knew all this, knew what he has endured, one wonders what he would think.”
“Father, he is the type who grows stronger with every setback, pain and hardship have not defeated him, but instead made him braver and more diligent, I believe his future will certainly not be lacking!” Gui Yuanyuan said firmly.
“I only hope that in the end he can recover, if it is like that, I believe his future achievements will even surpass his father’s!” Master Gui sighed.
Heaven, when about to confer a great office on any man, will first test his mind with suffering, and distress his frame and sinews with toil, expose his body to hunger, treat him roughly, and be sparing of the wherewithal to his activity. Thus it moves him, and encourages him, and makes him capable of what his office demands.
Master Gui believed that everything Lin Yun had endured was all in preparation for Lin Yun’s rise in the future!
