I Can Recognize Everything, But the Information is Wrong
Chapter 382 345 Attitude Change

If they had cultivation, Tian Lin and Master Listening Rain naturally wouldn't be afraid.

But precisely because they lacked cultivation, those pots, pans, and dishes that were usually thrown into the Storage Bag, or casually picked up, now seemed heavy on their shoulders.

Tian Lin was better off, after all, he appeared a bit younger.

But Master Listening Rain was different; his eyes were already blind. He held a tree stick as a blind cane, relying on it or Tian Lin's guidance to move forward.

On top of that, Tian Lin had been given a task by their superior: to ensure the old man didn't die.

The two of them were paired companions, and if one died, the other would be buried along—this was the rule of this Huahua Lang team, intended to have people support each other.

Tian Lin had no intention of killing Master Listening Rain at the moment. After all, in this cannibalistic team, Master Listening Rain seemed harmless and familiar.

"Do you think the Nascent Soul Masters ahead will experience the same as us?"

Tian Lin was walking at the back of the team and couldn't help but ask Master Listening Rain.

Master Listening Rain tilted his head slightly, indicating he was listening to Tian Lin. While propping himself with the blind cane with one hand, he tightened the grass rope on his shoulder with the other:

"This is the world brought to us by the Immortal Sword. I'm afraid cultivators below Divinity Transformation cannot escape such trials."

"Do you think we'll meet them?"

Tian Lin's words made Master Listening Rain stop short!

In the past, when Tian Lin entered an illusion, he rarely faced others!

For example, in the Dao Seeking Mountain illusion, no matter how many people were on the same stone step, once in the illusion, everyone would go their own way.

Also, in the Fairy Cave of the Goddess Sect, regardless of how many people entered, it was always the same place, always starting from scratch in a novice village—

But this time entering the 'Heavenly Gate' was different; Tian Lin and Master Listening Rain were clearly not separated.

"I don't know if we'll run into them, but if we want to survive here, we must put aside past grievances and help each other."

Tian Lin was noncommittal, although the old man needed him more now, it didn't mean he didn't need the old man.

However, if the time came when the old man was of no use, Tian Lin would kill him without hesitation.

The two at this moment tightened the grass ropes, dragging the heavy wooden cart as they trudged on the mountain path.

"This path is not maintained, and the official road is overgrown with weeds. It shows that this Great Qi dynasty is already in a doomsday state."

After Tian Lin said that, Master Listening Rain added: "When the people prosper they suffer, and when they fall they suffer too. The end times or not, has nothing to do with the common people!"

Just as he finished speaking, a whip suddenly struck his shoulder.

The wielder of the whip was also a commoner, merely temporarily assigned to supervise Tian Lin and Master Listening Rain while they were disciplined.

He was furious at this moment, cursing: "Damn it, what good is a damn doomsday? Now even the tree bark along the road is gnawed clean. Is this the end times you favor? A mud-legged person like you trying to talk like a scholar, hurry up and pull your cart!"

Master Listening Rain was furious for being whipped for no reason.

He was a dignified Nascent Soul cultivator, whom one could kill but not insult; how could he let a mortal act presumptuously before him?

"How dare you lay hands on me, are you not afraid of death?"

The whip wielder was also enraged, responding with another whip strike: "How dare you show anger to your grandpa, are you not afraid of the whip?"

'Slap slap' came two more whips, and under the lashes, Master Listening Rain finally recognized reality.

A phoenix fallen to the ground is inferior to a chicken; now he was nothing more than a blind, hungry old man, far from the powerful Nascent Soul Master Listening Rain he once was.

What use is so-called Nascent Soul dignity?

"Alright, alright, I admit defeat, I admit defeat!"

Master Listening Rain dropped the grass rope, writhing in pain on the ground.

But the whip didn't stop, continuing to rain down upon him viciously.

"Admit defeat? Empty words mean nothing; you need to kneel and beg for mercy, calling me grandpa three times!"

Master Listening Rain was unwilling for the moment, and the whip continued unabated.

Tian Lin frowned. He didn't really want to stand up for Master Listening Rain, fearing it might bring calamity upon himself.

But now, he and Master Listening Rain were the only ones pulling goods. If Master Listening Rain was seriously injured and couldn't move, wouldn't all these goods fall on him alone?

By then, he'd fear not just carrying goods but also expending energy and blood to care for him!

"Forget it, brother, stop your hand. If you hurt him, the superior might hold you accountable."

Tian Lin raised his hand to block the man's whip with his tree stick, and when the man glared at him, Tian Lin added: "Besides, if he's injured, who will help carry the goods?"

This commotion had already attracted the attention of the Huahua Langs ahead; the man was, after all, a mortal. He could bully the elderly, but facing someone stronger, a mere look would intimidate him.

Thus, realizing his actions had drawn the attention of several cultivators ahead, he promptly withdrew the whip.

Meanwhile, a cultivator's voice called out from the forest ahead: "What's going on, why moving so slow, courting death?"

Hearing the angry voice, the supervisor's previously aggressive stance weakened.

He stepped forward, assisting the old man with both fear and threats, saying: "Stop pretending, my few whips won't kill you! Get up and pull the goods; if you fall behind, watch out for severe consequences!"

The two hauling the goods over mountain roads could not possibly match those lightly equipped.

If not for the extraordinary physique of both Tian Lin and Master Listening Rain, let alone keeping pace with those ahead; just being able to pull the cart was an issue.

At this point, Master Listening Rain was groaning; he was indeed both exhausted and hungry. After being whipped and collapsed onto the ground, he couldn't muster any strength.

"I can't pull anymore, let me rest a bit."

As he spoke, he truly seemed about to collapse.

The supervisor was furious again, about to raise the whip when the cultivator in front returned, asking: "What's the matter, so slow?"

In fact, there was no need to say; just by the dirt and whip marks on the old man, it wasn't hard to guess what had transpired.

Tian Lin and Master Listening Rain remained silent, only for the supervisor to quickly explain: "They accidentally fell."

If he spoke the truth, it would be fine; instead, he chose to lie.

The cultivator snickered, kicking him in the chest: "Do you think I'm a fool?"

The cultivator's foot was not at full strength, but still something no common person could withstand.

The supervisor was kicked to the ground, breathless.

The cultivator didn't continue beating him, simply saying to the supervisor: "From now on, you will pull the cart with the two of them."

Afterward, he said to Tian Lin and Master Listening Rain: "The superior said if you endure these three days, you'll be rewarded with meat. Work hard, and don't be lazy or sly!"

While speaking, he patted Tian Lin's shoulder in a friendly manner.

Tian Lin and Master Listening Rain exchanged a glance, momentarily puzzled by the drastic shift in attitude from this group towards them.
