Chapter 165 The world is simple, but people are complicated
Listening to Sun Yu's speculation, Dugu Yan's brows furrowed even deeper, and she spoke with a look of confusion.
"It's them!? How is that possible? Why would the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School monitor Ling Ling's family? They are both support system Spirit and are both well-known. If they were really people from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, why would the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School do something that would cause misunderstandings?"
"Yanyan Jie, have you ever heard the saying, 'One mountain cannot accommodate two tigers'?"
Listening to Sun Yu's words, Dugu Yan shook her head with a puzzled expression.
Seeing Dugu Yan's eager gaze, Sun Yu immediately lowered his voice and replied softly.
"Regarding this, I'm just guessing, so just listen and don't spread it around… Simply put, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School is worried about the Ye family rising and taking their place as the second Sect on the Continent, which is why they sent people to monitor the Ye family. I even suspect that the group of nobles who went to find the Ye family might have had the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School secretly pushing them…"
Listening to Sun Yu's speculation, Dugu Yan's pupils contracted, and she looked at Sun Yu with a face full of shock.
"No way, how is this possible? School Master Ning Fengzhi doesn't seem like that kind of person…"
In response, Sun Yu shook his head and said.
"Yanyan Jie, you just said it yourself. The Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School and the Ye family are both well-known and are both Top Martial Souls of the support system on the Continent. However, Yanyan Jie, haven't you noticed that despite being Top Martial Souls of the support system, their treatment on the Continent is vastly different?
To give the simplest example, you see that group of nobles daring to provoke Ling Ling, but do you think they would dare to provoke Ning Rongrong? Have you thought about the reason behind this?"
Listening to Sun Yu's explanation, Dugu Yan immediately fell into deep thought…
It seems that it is indeed true. Although the Ye family also has the Top Martial Soul Nine Heart Sea棠, their treatment on the Continent is indeed not as grand as that of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School; their family doesn't even have a few servants…
"So, I speculate that if it weren't for the significant restrictions of the Nine Heart Sea棠 Spirit, which only allows two Spirit Master with the Nine Heart Sea棠 Spirit to exist simultaneously, I suspect the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School might have long ago forcibly incorporated the Ye family into their family.
After all, only with the Nine Heart Sea棠 under their own control can the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School truly feel at ease. At the same time, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School can also use this to try and produce several Top support system Spirit Master who possess both the Nine Heart Sea棠 and the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda…"
A hint of pity for Ling Ling flashed in Sun Yu's eyes.
And upon hearing this, Dugu Yan also fell silent.
Sun Yu's words today were something Dugu Yan had never considered before.
"If what you're saying is true, then why doesn't the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School just directly destroy the Ye family? Why go to all the trouble of monitoring them?!"
"It's simple, because they want to build an image…"
Sun Yu slowly began to speak upon hearing this question.
"Build an image?! What do you mean?"
"The meaning is simple: as long as the Ye family cannot flourish like their Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, they will never threaten the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's position on the Continent. In that case, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School will not mind letting the Ye family continue to exist.
After all, as long as the Ye family remains, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's image of being noble, righteous, and all-encompassing will become even more deeply ingrained in people's hearts!
After all, according to common sense, the Nine Heart Sea棠's support ability is even stronger than the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile Pagoda's; after all, the words "immortality" are enough to attract many people!
Therefore, to further expand its reputation on the Douluo Continent, it is not surprising that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School would do something like crying wolf…"
Listening to Sun Yu's explanation, Dugu Yan immediately swallowed hard.
Her face was filled with panic.
Everything Sun Yu had just said was from an angle she had never considered, and it was a theory no one had ever told her…
She hadn't expected that the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, whose image she had always thought was quite good, would have such a dark side.
"So, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School also has such a dark side…"
Dugu Yan spoke, feeling a little dazed.
"Yes, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School has built such a good image for so many years that many younger generation people, including you, only see the positive side of the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School, and thus subconsciously ignore its dark side.
For something like this, if you go back and ask Dugu Mian, his thoughts might be similar to mine. Those older generation people should have seen the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's methods back then…"
Listening to Sun Yu's words, Dugu Yan, whose thinking had been overturned, still felt a bit disoriented. After all, in Dugu Yan's impression, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School had always been a Sect with a relatively upright reputation.
Even though they were the renowned second Sect on the Continent, they did not harm commoners because of it. Instead, they would even provide funds to help poor people in remote areas…
Therefore, compared to the domineering Blue Lightning Tyrant Dragon Clan, the third Sect on the Continent, the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's image was very noble and righteous, and their reputation on the Continent was quite good, with no small number of folk experts willing to join them.
Sun Yu looked at Dugu Yan's dazed and incredulous expression and spoke with a slight smile.
"What, Yanyan Jie, are you scared by my speculation?"
"A little… After hearing you, I suddenly feel as if the whole World is fake, as if I'm living in a World full of lies…"
Dugu Yan nodded.
"Yanyan Jie, that's not fake; that's complex. The World is simple; it's people who are complex. Every lie people tell, every action they take, is done for themselves and their families to obtain better resources.
The reason you feel the World is fake is because you are looking at the World from Ling Ling's perspective. If you look from the Seven Treasure Glazed Tile School's perspective, you will truly understand what it means to be in the Spirit Master's World: the law of the jungle…"
Listening to Sun Yu's explanation, Dugu Yan couldn't help but look up at Sun Yu, who was even younger than herself.
She spoke with a curious expression.
"Xiao Yu, you're younger than me. How did you figure all this out?"
"Haha, I grew up in the countryside. If I wasn't proficient in human relations, I might not even have the right to meet you…"
Sun Yu patted Dugu Yan's hand.
He laughed softly.
"Then Xiao Yu, from now on, you're not allowed to lie to me, understand?! I don't want you to lie to me!"
Dugu Yan leaned against Sun Yu, pleading sincerely.
"Don't worry, Yanyan Jie, just like Dugu Mian, I would never lie to you!!"
"Hehe, that's good. Xiao Yu is the best. Tonight, wherever you want to touch, older sister will let you touch…"
Listening to Sun Yu's assurance, Dugu Yan smiled incredibly sweetly, as if she had eaten honey.
