Chapter 452: Xuexi’s Wish

Translator: Exodus Tales Editor: Exodus Tales

Although the bell sound ceased, the echoes reverberated continuously, spreading all about the palace.

Zong Shou had a solemn expression as he looked towards Zhao Yanran and Xuan Yunlan. The 2 of them also had a serious expression on their faces.

Even Chuxue let go of Zong Shou’s hand and looked towards the direction of the bell.

Zong Shou thought about it carefully for a moment before his brows furrowed. He drove his sword and flew towards the east gate of the dao palace. The other few people followed closely behind.

Miles of distance was covered in just a few breaths. At this moment, the ten thousand odd disciples in the dao palace rushed in from all directions. They all seemed to know what was going on, silently lining up at the 2 sides of the palace gates.

At this moment, Zong Shou had some reputation. Be it in the common people vast habitat or the 3 sects and 6 schools, he was the actual dao palace first seat and a rare 3rd generation core disciple.

Everyone who recognized him all stopped to bow to him when they passed.

After he reached the palace gates, no one dared to get close. They all stood far away and left some space for Zong Shou.

It made things good for Zong Yuan, Zhao Yanran and the others, at least they didn’t need to squeeze together with the other disciples.

They only waited for a short moment here before they heard the ring of a bell. The dao palace middle gate suddenly opened.

A hundred-odd people standing outside with a lost expression. They were all middle-aged men who were in their 30’s to 40’s. Their faces were slightly dejected and dispirited or expressionless. There were only a few people who didn’t speak, and their faces were filled with sharpness.

The one at the helm was outstanding. Although he was wearing a simple robe, his face slightly thin and stable. He had a calm aura made Zong Shou think of Wei Xu right away.

At this moment he heard a bell-like male voice ring out at the entrance of the dao palace, “Welcome fellow sect disciples back to the common people dao palace!”

Zong Shou glanced over, only to hear that the one who spoke was a middle-aged man around 30 who was wearing a Confucian attire. He looked young, but his head was filled with white hair. His current expression was an emotional one.

He recognized this person. It was Fangwen. The current head of the common people path palace. If he used his identity as Tanqiu, then this person could be considered his senior brother.

At this moment, the ten thousand disciples of the sect all looked serious as they bowed towards the outside of the gate.

“Welcome fellow sect disciples for returning to our common people path!”

Those hundred-odd middle-aged disciples were all stunned. Even those people who were numb, showing no signs of life also raised their heads, light glowing in their eyes.

Only the one at the head didn’t react. His body stumbling as he walked through the gates. When he walked passed Fangwen, it caused the latter’s brows to furrow, “Junior brother…”

That middle-aged man didn’t bother at all. He walked through the gates, raising his head and looking into the sky. Where his eyes gazed passed was the direction of the ancestral hall.

At this moment, the atmosphere near the palace gates shocked and touched the heart. Although the people were silent, they were suppressing their emotions. It was like a dormant volcano, pressing that magma deep in their chests.

Zong Shou felt nothing at all. He looked carefully at the middle-aged man who gave off an amazing aura. He was similar to Wei Xu.

Thinking to himself that this person was definitely that Xuexi. A person that even Hanfang paid a lot of attention to.

In the next instance, Xuexi suddenly teared up as he kneeled towards the ancestral hall. He did a proper kowtow.

The hundred-odd disciples behind him couldn’t take it anymore. 2 streams of tears flowed down their faces as they kowtowed behind Xuexi.

In that group of people, there were hundreds of people who also knelt. However, they all bowed towards the hundred people who stood on the road.

Zong Shou found it weird. He heard Zhao Yanran explain, “These people had participated in the battle of Yan City Pass. However, they managed to escape with their lives. I heard that it was because those people who were captured didn’t care about their lives to act as the backline to let them escape. They heard that those people would return recently which was why they rushed back…”

Hearing those few sentences, Zong Shou was at a total loss for words. Zong Yuan at the side was a bit distracted as he looked at all this, muttering to himself, “Now I finally know why the common people path 3 sects and 6 schools can go up against the righteous path and demon path for ten thousand years and not lose.”

Although Ruoshui didn’t speak, her expression also became really serious.

After Xuexi bowed, he stood back up. His eyes swept through the group of people. When he passed Zong Shou he suddenly stopped, slightly nodding his head as sort of a bow. His eyes were filled with gratefulness but didn’t come over to speak.

Zong Shou smiled, knowing what he meant. He was saying that the kindness was so huge that words couldn’t express it. When gentlemen spoke, it was quick and direct. They didn’t need to let it show or say it out loud.

Xuexi shifted his gaze away, once again looking at the sky above. His eyes were filled with joy and excitement whilst also filled with guilt and shame. He bowed once more.

Zong Shou looked along with his gaze, only to see that 2 more people had appeared all of a sudden.

One of them was Hanfang and the other was a black-robed Taoist. His old face was also a mix of sadness and admiration.

Zong Shou’s brows rose. He wondered if this person Xuexi’s master. To be able to stand side by side with Hanfang, he should be a 2nd generation person of the common people path.

At this moment, Zong Shou didn’t know that when he was sizing up the people above, Hanfang and that black-robed cultivator were discussing him.

“This is the disciple that Weixu had accepted on behalf of senior master Xuanshuang. He is our youngest junior brother now? I have witnessed his sword technique. A grade 6 creating a sword technique! His comprehension is the top few in the sect. This time I should be grateful for him.”

“Yes!”

Hanfang smiled as he looked below, at the teen which was squinting. Following which he nodded his head in approval, “I know that senior brother Weitian you have always seen Xuexi this kid as a family member. For Xuexi to escape this time is all because of him!”

The black-robed male coldly glanced at Hanfang and knew this person was still blaming him for leaving the sect and not returning for 20 years.

Although Hanfang was one of the calmest out of the many senior brothers and junior brothers, he bore a grudge in earnest.

Just as he was about to mock him, the words turned into a sigh instead, “I didn’t blame the sect. Just that every time I come to the dao palace I can’t help but think about him. I was unable to put down this heart knot. Junior brother Zong Shou’s kindness is something that I, Weitian, would repay. That junior brother Weixu has always been unreliable in the way he does things. Only this time, he couldn’t be smarter in accepting this kid into the sect…”

On the other side, Hanfang was feeling a little guilty, laughing, “Why are we talking about all this? Today, junior nephew Xuexi surprised me. 20 years of jail life and torture but he didn’t give up. Looking at his soul, it is round and perfect, filled with spiritual light. The potential of his heart is much better than Fangwen. Those 20 years of hardship might be a good thing instead.”

Weitian smiled, not agreeing or disagreeing. In the next instant, he saw that the gate of the dao palace was dead silent.

Only to see Xuexi casually ‘borrowed’ a long sword from the waist of a nearby common people path disciple. He didn’t hesitate to slice his wrist open.

“Xuexi, today will follow the Buddhist sect venerable and make 3 oaths. The 1st oath is that I will use all my strength to cause my common people path to spread far and wide through the cloud world, to achieve the ancestor’s wishes! The 2nd oath is that I would like everyone who participated in the Yan City Pass rebellion to pay blood with blood…”

When he said that, the ten thousand disciples nearby to the palace all exchanged glances with one another, their eyes filled with a weird expression.

Xuexi also paused after that and took in a deep breath.

“My 3rd oath is that within 3 thousand years I will personally tear apart that Tailing shrine! To wipe out the entire sect!”

When his words were said, lightning flashed and the wind blew within the common people path dao palace, dark clouds spreading all about.

A black colored aura rose from all sides and charged towards Xuexi.

A golden shield floated up around his body to repel these black energies. Causing it to bare its fangs and show its teeth, but they were unable to get close at all.

His expression became even more solemn, filled with determination.

“Fellow disciples please be my witness. If I go against this oath, I will die by my soul burning up!”

When his words were said, an aura suddenly burst forth from this body, climbing upwards and charging into the horizon.

The vast soul power suppressed all directions. Pretty much anyone grade 6 and below couldn’t take it, all of them kneeling onto the ground.

Only 1500 people could still stand, and their faces filled with cold sweat, filled with astonishment.

“This is, grade 9?”

Zong Shou’s heart was filled with shock. When this Xuexi had stepped into the common people path dao palace he was only grade 7.

However, in an instant, he climbed a full 2 grades!

“This phenomenon, it’s a sign of swearing to the heavens and the earth…”

Zhao Yanran was startled as she looked on, not knowing how to react. Zong Yuan also kept silent, the phenomenon was similar to when he made a blood oath to be Zong Shou’s servant. Only its aura was tens of times larger.

Xuan Yunlan’s brows furrowed, looking at the black energy, “That is from the formless god demon, the bad thoughts of the human world. Although this great senior master Xuexi copied the Buddhism technique, he didn’t pick up the true essence. At this moment although he used the power of the heart demon to raise his cultivation and potential, if he can’t achieve it within 3 thousand ears then he would fall, dying from combustion, becoming the food for these demons!”

Zong Shou was still startled, not knowing what he should say. He could hear the determination and the bone-deep hate.

Such a huge phenomenon…This time, he saved an extraordinary person.

In his heart, he couldn’t help but pray for that Han King. His highness was asking for it. Out of the people who participated in the rebellion of Yan City Pass, this Han King was a really important person.

The hundreds of returning disciples behind Xuexi were also startled. However, when they came back to their senses they all sliced their wrists.

“…We follow the same path!”

“To let our common people path prosper! Take revenge for our brothers! To wipe out that Tailing Sect!”

Thunder rumbled in the skies, causing that Weitian to sigh, “Dumb kid! Dumb kid!”
