Qin Wentian was speechless after he heard the headmaster’s words. But he suddenly understood many things. He naturally knew that it was impossible for the Karma Buddha to take the initiative to undo the threads of karma force.
In truth, when the Karma Buddha entered the Heaven Vault, it wasn’t merely to threaten him. The Karma Buddha already intended to act against him and he coincidentally met with Little Ye. Maybe, this was destiny. Even if Little Ye wasn’t the one, the Karma Buddha would have surely sought others out and used different methods to plant his seed of karma.
After the karma seed was planted, Little Ye’s fate was already destined. She was under the Karma Buddha’s control. The western world didn’t really directly act, sending Yue Changkong instead. Although Yue Changkong wasn’t able to deal with him, Qin Wentian still wasn’t able to resolve this despite defeating Yue Changkong. Seems like he still has to face the person who planted the seed personally.
The monk only needed to sit in the western world and observe everything that happened, there was basically no need for him to act. Even at the end, the Karma Buddha only needed to quietly wait for Qin Wentian to look for him in the western world.
This, was the dao of karma. Since the instant the Karma Buddha entered the Heaven Vault, everything was already fated.
“Many thanks to senior for your guidance.” Qin Wentian clasped his hands. Headmaster Ye shook his head, “This is nothing much. The western world is very powerful, you have to be careful.”
“Mhm.” Qin Wentian nodded. After that, he bid farewell and left, not staying behind. If this were ordinary times, he might have stayed for a period of time in the sacred academy. But right now, he didn’t have any heart to do so.
After he left, Headmaster Ye and the three heavenly deities of the sacred academy stared at his vanished figure. In the eyes of the heavenly deities, traces of worry could be seen in their eyes for Qin Wentian.
The headmaster said that the western world was very powerful, there was naturally no need to doubt that. And right now, there would certainly be an inevitable clash between Qin Wentian and the western world and from their perspectives, although Qin Wentian was powerful enough to destroy the Ziwei Divine Court, there was still no way for him to do anything to the western world.
“Headmaster, if Qin Wentian heads to the western world, wouldn’t that be tossing himself into the net?” Goddess Dugu asked in concern. After all, she and Qin Wentian once had a relationship as teacher and student. Qin Wentian referred to her as his teacher before and now, this student was even more outstanding than her. She naturally didn’t hope for Qin Wentian to fall here.
“Qin Wentian’s fate isn’t so simple.” The headmaster smiled and shook his head. “However, if he wishes to survive this calamity, things wouldn’t be that easy for him.”
“Didn’t the Grim Reaper threaten the western world? Could it be that the western world is no longer wary of the Grim Reaper?” The Lifegovern Heavenly Deity frowned as he spoke.
“They still hold some trepidation for him in their hearts, this was why they didn’t act directly before this. Even now, they wanted Qin Wentian to look for them instead. But if you feel that the western world would give up their designs on the Heaven Vault just because of a single sentence from the Grim Reaper, you are severely underestimating the western world.” Headmaster Ye calmly spoke. His gaze turned towards the western direction after that.
Qin Wentian left. Outside, many people who knew about the news of his visit to the sacred academy, rushed here from afar hoping to catch a single glance of him. But ultimately, they didn’t make it in time and heard the news of his departure. Many people sighed silently, with regards to living legends, countless people would always be filled with admiration. And there’s no doubt that Qin Wentian was a living legend.
Also, this was just right now. Qin Wentian was still growing. A thousand years later, there was no doubt that his fame would be peak even among the legends of the Supreme Ancient Immortal Realms.
Naturally, there was also the possibility that Qin Wentian might fall in this calamity. After all, his opponent was the immensely powerful western world.
…
When Qin Wentian returned to the Heaven Vault, he returned to his own floating palace. He glanced at Fan Le and Xuan Xin, they were peacefully huddled together with Little Ye lying before them. This scene seemed so tranquil but when Qin Wentian saw this, his heart turned cold. He definitely had to get revenge for this. There was no doubt that he would kill Yue Changkong. The main culprit behind the scenes, the western world, would also have to pay a price.
He decisively turned and left here, beginning closed-door cultivation. He had a dao which he hasn’t fully mastered yet. He planned to make a trip out after he mastered that dao.
Although he wanted nothing more than to kill his way into the western world right now and hunt down the Karma Buddha, awakening Fan Le and Xuan Xin, he still didn’t lose his rational. It was easy to be impulsive but it would be useless. Not only would he fail to take revenge, he would even cause himself to fall into the trap. Once he fell into the trap, the ones that were in trouble wouldn’t merely be Fan Le and Xuan Xin. Everyone he wanted to protect would suffer a calamity. This was something he absolutely couldn’t accept. He also wouldn’t be able to afford to pay the price.
Hence, no matter how much anger there was in his heart, no matter how cold his heart felt, he still had to suppress his thoughts of rushing into the western world now.
In the blink of an eye, several months passed. Qin Wentian who was cultivating in one of the time worlds he created, had cultivated for several tens of years. With an increase in time ratio of one hundred times to one, this gave him more time to comprehend his insights.
Ouyang Kuangsheng interrupted him in the midst of his cultivation. He told Qin Wentian that his daughter Qinxin’s emotions haven’t stabilized yet even after all this time. It was like she wasn’t able to get over this sorrow. If it wasn’t for this matter about Qinxin, Ouyang Kuangsheng also wouldn’t have interrupted Qin Wentian in his cultivation.
After Qin Wentian learned of this, he instantly ended his cultivation and went to look for Ouyang Qinxin.
Now, Ouyang Qinxin was much more haggard than before. Her originally youthful and beautiful face was now slightly sunken, she had completely lost the vibrancy of youth.
“Uncle Qin.” Ouyang Qinxin called out when she saw Qin Wentian.
“Qinxin, your father told me that you haven’t been able to get over it. What’s going on?” Qin Wentian asked.
“I don’t know why as well. Little Ye’s images fill my mind, it’s like I can see her coming to find me everytime, telling me about her death. Even if I want to rest, I would be startled awake by nightmares.” Ouyang Qinxin shook her head lightly. She felt very miserable, this wasn’t only because of her best friend’s death, it was also because of the torment she felt now which caused her will to want to collapse.
“Karma Buddha.” Qin Wentian coldly spoke. If the Karma Buddha doesn’t die, the karma force would always exist and the threads of karma would never be severed. Qinxin would always be affected. Was this the warning the Karma Buddha told him about?
Qin Wentian felt pain in his heart. He walked over and hugged her while speaking softly, “Qinxin, you have to be fine, okay? Uncle Qin doesn’t want to see anything happen to you.”
After losing Little Ye, it already caused him to suffer enough pain. If something happened to Qinxin as well, he didn’t know how he would face it.
“Mhm.” Ouyang Qinxin nodded her head. Upon thinking that she was still able to hug her Uncle Qin and be comforted by him yet Little Ye has already transformed into a corpse. Her tears began flowing uncontrollably again, staining Qin Wentian’s clothes wet.
“But, I can’t control myself.” Qinxin also tried her best not to think about it but she wasn’t able to control her emotions.
“Uncle Qin understands.” Qin Wentian silently blamed himself. He naturally knew why Qinxin couldn’t control herself. Because, she has entered the karma dao of the Karma Buddha. Even he himself had been spied upon, let alone Qinxin.
Qin Wentian held her closely as she simply sobbed in his embrace. Finally, the sound of sobbing grew softer and faded away. Qin Wentian lowered his head and discovered that Qinxin’s eyes were closed, she was now peacefully asleep although tear stains could still be seen at the corners of her eyes.
She actually fell asleep like this.
When he saw this scene, Qin Wentian felt even more heartbroken. How fatigued this lass must be to fall asleep like this?
“It has been a very long time since she could feel at ease to sleep. Maybe, in your embrace, she can feel more secure.” Ouyang Kuangsheng transmitted his voice to Qin Wentian.
Qin Wentian stared at the haggard look on the young woman’s face. He inclined his head and looked at the sky while drawing in a deep breath.
Seems like he cannot wait anymore.
He didn’t move, he simply stood there allowing the young girl to quietly lean against him in sleep.
“Little Ye.” In her dreams, Qinxin’s body suddenly trembled like she was having a nightmare.
“Uncle Qin, save Little Ye and save me!” She actually spoke in her sleep, clearly in a nightmare. Her voice sounded so weak and helpless, causing Qin Wentian’s heart to feel even more pain and sorrow.
Qin Wentian was like a statue that didn’t move. He was afraid any movements by him would frighten the girl. He silently vowed in his heart that he would never let Qinxin suffer the fate of Little Ye. He would definitely not.
Qinxin slept with ease for a few hours before she gradually awoke. When she saw that she was lying in Qin Wentian’s embrace, she inclined her head and asked, “Uncle Qin, how did I fall asleep?”
A doting smile appeared on Qin Wentian’s face as he stroked her hair. “Qinxin, you are too weary. In the future, try to rest more alright?”
“Mhm.” Qinxin nodded, she would try her best.
“Don’t let Uncle Qin and your parents worry about you anymore.” Qin Wentian spoke again. Qinxin then glanced at Ouyang Kuangsheng and called out, “Daddy!”
“Silly girl.” Ouyang Kuangsheng sighed. Qin Wentian then spoke, “I’m leaving first. Ouyang, take good care of this little girl. Also, Qinxin, you have to remember Uncle Qin’s words. I won’t let anything happen to you.”
The two of them nodded. Qin Wentian then returned to his own residence. He didn’t stop for too long. He bid farewell with his wives and began to make an independent journey out of the Heaven Vault.
In the Heaven Vault, not many people knew that Qin Wentian had left. There was no need to mention about the outside world.
In the boundlessly vast territory of the Universe Region, there would be countless people entering and leaving every day. Today, a young man stepped into the Universe Region but there was no commotion at all. He was like a grain of sand tossed into the ocean, he didn’t even cause a ripple.
Nobody knew he was here, and nobody knew what he came here to do!
