If fundamental changes were not made, the blooming flowers would remain nothing but delicate greenhouse playthings, devoid of the wild fragrance.
Humans, too, were animals, inherently possessing passion and wild instincts. How could one truly sever their fangs and claws?
The Water Ghost remained silent.
He knew this was the answer he sought, the original aspiration of his cultivation.
And now, through a conversation between Xu Xiaoshou and Bazhun’an, his answer was revealed.
“Is this the Struggle for the Great Path?” Gazing at the wounds scattered across Abyss Island evoked a mix of emotions in Xu Xiaoshou.
Bones and corpses sprawled across the land; nations shattered...
The echoes of resentful spirits and unfulfilled regrets wove into a mournful wind, while the weak and self-deprecating turned into bitter fruits...
Gods fought among themselves, and mortals suffered.
If Abyss Island was like this, what storms would the Struggle for the Great Path unleash upon returning to the Shengshen Continent?
Xu Xiaoshou tried not to dwell on matters that were of little concern to him. At this moment, he focused only on himself and those around him.
Nevertheless, Bazhun’an’s words stirred him, adding a touch of confusion and perplexity.
Bazhun’an looked at the young man, as if seeing his past self, and said with a smile, “I once had the same confusion as you. Or rather, as long as one is human, possessing humanity, they must have pondered over such thoughts...”
“But Xu Xiaoshou, you are mistaken.”
“But that’s your master’s token. I’m just returning it to you for safekeeping. You should be able to protect it now.”
Bazhun’an said, pulling out another command token from his chest. This command token was black, with the emblem of the Saint Servant on the back and the character “Shou” on the front. The Water Ghost’s expression changed.
Xiao Kongtong raised his eyebrows.
Mei Siren froze with a paper fan in hand, showing a hint of surprise.
Zhu Yike looked at the command token, and his eyes began to shine.
Bazhun’an handed over the “Shou” command token and said with a smile:
“Before this, our relationship was merely a simple coercion. For the Saint Servant, you were still in the assessment phase.”
“In the battle on Abyss Island, I saw your growth and ability to take the helm with confidence.’
“The First Pavilion in the Sky can naturally stand alone, but it still needs the support of the Saint Servant in various aspects.”
“The vacancy left after Sleeveless’ departure also needs to be filled... and I think you can now rise above opposition and suppress all dissenting voices.”
“Startled, Passive Points, +1.”
Xu Xiaoshou stared at the familiar yet unfamiliar black command token, then looked at Bazhun’an in disbelief.
Still holding out the token, Bazhun’an cleared his throat, and with a serious yet somewhat playful expression, said:
“Now, I, Bazhun’an, formally extend an invitation to you!”
“Lord Shou, I have already forged your seat.. Would you deign to come to my
Saint Servant and grace us with your presence?”
