"Ugh!" Murong Fu found Murong Bo's current state both laughable and pathetic, yet it suited his purposes perfectly. This devious old man was far too troublesome and possessed an unnerving capacity for patience; he was no ordinary person.
In the original story, Murong Bo had hidden in Shaolin Temple for nearly thirty years. By the time he re-emerged, he possessed the peak martial arts of the era. However, his methods were unscrupulous, driven by a singular desire to see the world plunged into chaos. He had brainwashed himself into believing that if the world fell into turmoil, he could rise to power on the tide. Such depth of self-delusion was truly unparalleled. One need look no further than Murong Fu himself—having been brainwashed by his father since childhood, he had adopted the very same mindset.
By the later stages of the narrative, Murong Fu had even discarded his reputation for chivalry just to pursue the dream of restoring his nation. It was, when one thought about it, quite tragic. It was not wrong to be ambitious, but one should never rely on crooked paths. Excessive belief in such schemes could never lead to long-term success.
