Capítulo 1064: Chapter 1083: All Grudges Set Aside
Silence, an unspeaking silence!
The entire Wuzhuang Temple was shrouded in silence, only the body of the Primordial Spirit trembled unconsciously.
“Brother Dao, what he said is right, we…” Lu Ya gave a bitter smile, unable to continue his words.
“I have failed!”
The Primordial Spirit slowly lifted his head, as if he aged in an instant, a self-mocking smile appeared at the corner of his mouth, and his gaze towards Ye Xuan gradually calmed down.
“It wasn’t you I lost to; I lost to myself.” The Primordial Spirit gave a desolate smile, his ambitions dissipating at this moment, his eyes filled with confusion about the future.
Just as Ye Xuan said, he was too good at scheming, completely following a wrong path, and forgot that only his own strength is the eternal truth, and he lacked the courage to face death.
On the path to becoming the Saint among Saints, there are too many hardships and tribulations, filled with the crisis of death, yet, pitifully, he didn’t even have the courage to face it, and in the end, he would just be another’s dead bones.
“Ye Xuan, kill me.”
All grievances were laid down, all ambitions dissipated, the Primordial Spirit spoke calmly, silently looking at Ye Xuan before him, a trace of liberation in his eyes.
“I really want to kill you, but someone told me that if I did, I would regret it in the future, and I believe in this person’s words, so I won’t kill you.” Ye Xuan spoke calmly.
“Disciple, whether you acknowledge me as your Master or not, in my heart, you are always my disciple, and you are my greatest pride.”
“I lack great perseverance, great wisdom, and the courage to face tribulations, my life can be considered an utter failure, but my greatest success is nurturing you, nurturing a disciple who can step onto the path of the Saint among Saints, nurturing a disciple who might surpass the Undying Heavenly Lord.”
“Hahaha.”
The Primordial Spirit laughed loudly, tears streaming out as he laughed, tears of joy, tears of pride, and tears of liberation.
“Even if I become a Saint among Saints, even if I return to the Chaos Great World, in the end, I could only serve under others.”
“But it doesn’t matter, though I am a mediocre person, I have a good disciple, a disciple who dares to compete with the Supreme of the heavens, one who can climb to the throne of the number one throughout eternity, becoming the most brilliant Chen Star among the heavens.”
The Primordial Spirit laughed loudly, his face covered in tears, he finally realized today what he truly wanted.
He, the Primordial Spirit, was but one among the three thousand Chaotic Demon Gods, merely a pawn under the Undying Heavenly Lord, utterly mediocre in the Chaos Great World.
But so what?
He has raised a good disciple, one who will climb to the pinnacle step by step, one who will ascend the Nine Heavens and eventually become the Supreme number one throughout eternity.
In the distant future, when everyone looks up to Ye Xuan, the name of the Primordial Spirit will be etched in the annals of the heavens forever, because he is Ye Xuan’s Master, and this honor is unprecedented, this is the greatest pride of his life.
Buzz!
Suddenly, the Primordial Spirit waved his hand, a Starlight Compass appeared, and he solemnly handed it to Ye Xuan, a look of earnest solemnity on his face.
“Disciple, I can no longer give you anything, this Chaos Compass is my final treasure, it marks the areas of the Chaos Great World, helping you not lose your way, now I entrust it to you.” The Primordial Spirit said softly.
Looking at the Starlight Compass in the Primordial Spirit’s hand, Ye Xuan’s expression was complex, the entanglement between the two lasted over three million years, and only today have all grievances been resolved.
Ye Xuan’s eyes wavered, his memories surged, as if dragging him back to that distant past.
That year, Ye Xuan was only fourteen years old, terminally ill, at the end of his life, wishing only to die alone in the deep mountains and forests.
“What is your name?”
That year, the Primordial Spirit appeared before him.
“Ye Xuan, leaf of bamboo, Xuanyuan’s Xuan.”
“Are you willing to accept me as your Master?” The Primordial Spirit asked.
“I am willing.” Ye Xuan replied.
“Good, from today you are my disciple, you will gain a new life from now on.”
That year, in Duanchang Mountain, the Primordial Spirit led the young Ye Xuan step by step into the Blood Sea Battlefield, beginning Ye Xuan’s legendary life.
The thoughts were distant, full of emotion, even though this memory spanned over three million years, Ye Xuan never forgot it.
“Without you, there would be no me, no matter how much grievance existed between us, you are still my Master, this has never changed.” Ye Xuan solemnly bowed to the Primordial Spirit.
“Hahaha.”
The Primordial Spirit was startled at first, then burst into laughter, tears continuously rolling out of his eyes, because Ye Xuan recognizing him as Master was his greatest comfort and pride, nothing else mattered anymore.
Neither the Saint among Saints nor the Undying Immortal Scripture was of any importance to the Primordial Spirit anymore.
At this moment, he placed all his hopes on Ye Xuan, as he would be proud of Ye Xuan, and that was enough.
“Disciple, go, the road in the future must be walked by yourself, Master has been wrong for over three million years, and won’t continue making mistakes, when you become the Saint among Saints, Master will give you a final great gift.” The Primordial Spirit said determinedly, as if deciding on something significant at this moment.
“Past grievances, one stroke of a pen, if you are willing, in the future I will take you home.”
Ye Xuan turned abruptly, striding out of the Wuzhuang Temple, disappearing from the Primordial Spirit’s view.
“Home?”
The Primordial Spirit muttered blankly, a gentle look in his eyes.
“Brother Dao, do you really want to give him that thing?” Lu Ya frowned and asked.
“Lu Ya, you and I have been friends for endless years, like brothers, my dream has awakened today, that thing is useless to me, only in my disciple’s hands can it help him overcome the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations.” The Primordial Spirit said softly.
“But… but this is the treasure to transcend the Heavenly Dao Eighth Tribulation, if you give it to him… won’t you…?” Lu Ya spoke tremulously.
“So what if I transcend?”
The Primordial Spirit gave a self-deprecating smile, gazing at the direction Ye Xuan disappeared and murmured, “Ultimately, I’m ordinary, unable to transcend the Heavenly Dao Nine Tribulations, I place all my hopes on him, and that’s enough.”
“Brother Dao, you’ve taken in a great disciple!” Lu Ya Daoist sighed, finally not doubting the Primordial Spirit’s decision anymore.
“Indeed, I’ve taken a great disciple, and never imagined, the disciple I schemed against became the most successful thing in my life, and I will be proud of him.” The Primordial Spirit smiled warmly.
