Chapter 797 Chapter 795: The Death of a Golden Core (1/3)
Dream Dao Attainment, Opening Scheme Against Cultivators
Dream-Making Expert
Wang Huaigu spoke, one word at a time.
He knew he was a small figure.
Even if he had cultivated a Golden Core, before the thorny path Lin Qi would have to walk in the future, he could not help much.
So all he could do was stop, and smile as he watched Lin Qi continue onward.
His Fellow Daoist could fail. Could turn bad.
But it absolutely could not be because of him.
“Don’t say anymore.”
“You haven’t held me while I slept for a long time.”
“While there’s still time, rest.”
Qiuyun blew out the candlelight, gazing at Wang Huaigu, who still seemed to shine even in the darkness.
She suddenly felt relieved.
The ancients said: Hearing the Dao at dawn, one may die content at dusk.
To die on the path of one’s youthful ideals was foolish, but not shameful.
The man she loved really was doing something remarkable.
…
“I still think we should try to persuade Big Brother.”
“At worst, we avoid suspicion from now on and treat each other as strangers.”
“That’s still better than watching him go to his death with our own eyes.”
In another room.
Li Qizi and the others were discussing how to persuade Wang Huaigu once more.
“That’s right.”
“This isn’t just his business alone.”
“If he goes, Sister Qiuyun—they’re a devoted couple—Sister Qiuyun probably won’t choose to live on alone.”
“And also…”
Gao Tianyou unconsciously looked toward Ye Zijun and his sister.
Ye Zijun and Ye Sanshu exchanged a glance and smiled freely.
“Actually, we already understand what Big Brother is thinking.”
“To say we truly feel willing in our hearts—that would definitely be a lie.”
“But if it really is as Big Brother expects.”
“You will bend the rules for our sake, looking after us in every way.”
“Then that truly would be too much trouble.”
“What trouble is there in that!”
Li Qizi grew anxious. “Tianyou and I can both do it. Why can’t you?”
“It’s not the same.”
Ye Zijun shook his head.
“Back then, Dream Bubble Shadow was only his alone. How he bent the rules, looked after and guided others, was no concern of anyone else.”
“But now, this truly is no longer just his own affair.”
“Today you bend the rules to look after us.”
“Then in the future, if we have blood descendants, or other close friends.”
“Will you also bend the rules for them?”
“Or if we remain dull in talent and cannot cultivate the fruit of the Dao.”
“Will you then restart Reincarnation again and again, breaking every rule, just to let us live a few more lives?”
“If that’s how it is, then it would be better to make a clean end of it now.”
“That way we won’t have failed our acquaintance.”
At this point, Li Qizi and Gao Tianyou were about to argue.
Ye Sanshu smiled.
“Some things truly cannot be started. Once the bow is drawn, there is no arrow to return.”
“Besides, whether it’s Big Brother or us, we truly don’t want to take any more advantage under your protection.”
“Listen to me finish.”
“You two have already received protection and gained many benefits for nothing.”
“In the future, do not think of this as a matter of course.”
“Hold fast to your original hearts. Do no evil, forget no kindness, seek no fame, and walk the Dao Path we all pursue.”
“If you can do this.”
“Then there is no need for us to truly meet you at the summit.”
“As long as you stand atop the peak and still remember the vows we made back then.”
“That will not have failed our acquaintance.”
