Chapter 2204: Chapter 2201: The Best Choice

"She is just a servant."

Senior Luoo, as if interrupting, yet also reminding Xiao Yi.

"Servant?" Xiao Yi smiled, "In my eyes, not entirely."

"Moreover, should a servant pay for everything?"

"I don’t think so."

"Perhaps my thoughts differ from yours."

"In short, nothing is a must, nor is anything taken for granted."

"Besides, even if you or she herself thinks it’s justified, I won’t allow it if I’m unwilling."

Senior Luoo had already furrowed his brow.

Xiao Yi stood with hands behind him, still smiling.

"So, when I joined the Holy Moon Sect, I first asked if she was willing."

"Because that’s my debt to her."

From beginning to end, Xiao Yi never cared whether his search of over ten years was worth it.

Because he owed her.

He had told her that what belonged to her youthful days suited to explore the world was forcibly taken by the Saint Lord, exchanged for endless longing, seclusion, and desolation.

At that time, she thought it was his flirtatious sweet talk, a casual remark of a gentleman.

However, this was the reason he originally didn’t mention in the Holy Moon Sect.

This was his guilt.

But it’s not simply guilt.

Only said, it’s one of the reasons.

Senior Luoo’s brow tightened further, "She is just a servant."

"Entering the Holy Moon Sect was her destiny; thus, she enjoyed fine clothes and food, her Martial Arts were unhindered, her life was noble..."

"But that’s not the life she wanted." Xiao Yi interrupted with emphasis, even his tone turned slightly cold.

"That day, when I asked her willingness, discovering beneath her rosy garment was plain attire, for the second time in my life, I was so unexplainably angry, killing intent hard to suppress."

"Holy Moon Sect intended to bind her for life."

"I’m glad I arrived in time to prevent all this, ending over a decade of bondage."

"That day, I glanced around the venue, it was those Martial Artists present, that woman, those old bastards, forcibly pushed her."

"Pressed her to live without escape or death, forced her to harbor thoughts of death."

"Years ago, I faced an elder, also amidst countless sieges, surrounded by countless powerhouses, subjected to countless coercions."

"Later, that elder died."

"That was the first time I wanted to slaughter the world, the first time my killing intent couldn’t be suppressed even by my always proud Dao Heart."

"Holy Moon Sect was my second."

"The identical scene, the identical situation, alike beside me; except the elder turned into my family’s servant."

"That time, I was a step too late, helpless."

"Holy Moon Sect that time, fortunately, I made it in time."

Senior Luoo’s brow suddenly relaxed a bit.

He vividly remembered how this young man was that day, extremely mad, if not for consecutive changes, if not for their response as eight old men.

This young man would have been dead.

And the Holy Moon Sect would likely have turned into ashes.

Senior Luoo, always indifferent to mortals, suddenly understood what Xiao Yi intended to convey today.

But the next second, Senior Luoo’s eyes grew cold again.

"The last time, who besieged you?"

Xiao Yi smiled, "It’s past, I’ve already resolved it, I didn’t let one escape whom I intended to kill."

Senior Luoo folded his hands gently, sitting down, but remained heavy in tone.

"I understand your meaning."

"But this doesn’t change my original thoughts."

"What you are doing now isn’t what I wish to see."

Senior Luoo would never speak aimlessly, nor had much interest in hearing Xiao Yi’s love tales, his debt or lack thereof.

Senior Luoo spoke about this today with another purpose clearly.

From start to finish, what Senior Luoo cared about was only one matter, Xiao Yi.

Xiao Yi glanced at Senior Luoo, silent.

Senior Luoo’s eyes turned cold, "You’re gambling with your life."

"Always gambling with your life."

"I’ve said, I’m not blind."

"You say you can’t change anything, then what are you doing now?"

"You want to give your servant the meaningful time you speak of, I don’t oppose, but this doesn’t mean you should live on the edge, even ready to break into pieces at any time."

"We old folks have said, if the sky collapses, it’s on us."

Xiao Yi bitterly laughed once, "I’m just doing my best."

Clap...

Senior Luoo suddenly slammed the table, "Doing your best? For a whole year and a half, your Cultivation remained stagnant at the First Layer of Saint Sovereign Realm."

"Given your talent, it shouldn’t be this way."

"Cultivation didn’t rise, but strength begins to surge upward, even capable of battling nine-thousand-path powerhouses of Saint Sovereign Realm."

"Huoo Zhongtian gave you ten years to carry out Martial Arts Fusion, an almost impossible challenge."

"That’s something seven-thousand-path powerhouses of Saint Sovereign Realm wouldn’t even be sure of."

"Yet you managed, mere year and a half, completed Martial Arts integration, and it involved Sword Dao, Fire Dao, Poison Dao, the fusion of three."

"Each of the three isn’t ordinary; the weakest is the Strongest Sword Dao, firing a formidable flame level of the world."

"Tell me old man, what did you utilize?"

"A mere year and a half, it seemed like travel, but truly provoking Heaven and Earth Rules, forcibly defying destiny."

"Your possession is nineteen thousand complete Martial Arts paths, daring the fusion of dozens each day? Who gave you the courage?"

"Impatience driven by instant benefits; one single mistake in this process is enough to shatter you in the Martial Arts Dao."

Indeed, Senior Luoo wasn’t blind.

Already, upon Xiao Yi’s arrival at the Black Demon Hall Main Hall today, he’d seen what Xiao Yi had experienced in a year and a half.

If Xiao Yi wanted to travel, then travel fully; weary and worn, returning isn’t late.

But Xiao Yi’s wasn’t true travel.

The day Xiao Yi fought Xie Ruhai, even without actual battle, merely drawing the sword, three paths barely fused, he coughed blood.

If truly fought, Xie Ruhai would undoubtedly die.

But the cost Xiao Yi paid was certainly significant.

Sword Dao, Domineering Sword Technique, Ice Sword Dao, Star Illusion Swordsmanship, etc., various Sword Daos all top-tier strongest.

Fire Dao, Purple Crystal Spirit Flame, Earth Vein Golden Fire, Ice Netherworld Ghost Fire... all formidable flames of the world.

Poison Dao had already overhauled the Cultivation System.

With such a short time, forcefully fusing the three, that’s no less than joking with one’s life, that’s even defying heaven.

"You could have chosen a better way." Senior Luoo increased the weight of his tone.

Xiao Yi shook his head, "As I said, time is limited."

"From the moment I stepped into the Saint Sovereign Realm, I knew change was imminent."

"With every passing day, the sky turns more oppressive, the day of change closing in more."

"Within this remaining time, I can allocate it compensating to Yiyi, without impacting my Martial Arts Cultivation, without hindrance to my growth in power."

"This is the best choice."
