Off You Go!

"Don't you know whether you're dead or not?!"

Suddenly, a soft voice rang out in front of Xuanwei, carrying a hint of helplessness and a touch of disdain.

It suddenly reached Xuanwei's ears.

Upon hearing this voice so close, Xuanwei's pupils trembled involuntarily.

They quickly looked in the direction of the sound.

Only then did Xuanwei realize with horror that there was a person standing a few meters in front of him.

"This person was right in front of me, and I... didn't even notice them?!"

The instant Xuanwei finally saw that face clearly—

Boom!!!

His mind seemed to be struck by a thunderbolt, and he was completely stunned, his vision going blank.

Since its birth, the majestic presence that has existed in the memories of every Primordial Wilderness being has gradually become clear.

An indescribable excitement and exhilaration rose from every organ in his body.

The blood boiled instantly, as if it were being burned by flames.

"Road..."

"Dao Venerable?!"

Xuanwei no longer cared about anything else.

With a 'thud,' he knelt down on the spot without saying a word, creating invisible ripples.

Xuanwei never expected that he would have the chance to meet the Dao Venerable.

Seeing this, Hong Yuan simply smiled and shook his head.

"Get up! Anyone who didn't know better would think I did something to you!"

Before he finished speaking, an irresistible force arose out of nowhere, like an invisible hand, forcefully lifting Xuanwei from his kneeling position.

"No... I wouldn't dare..."

Xuanwei's voice was still trembling, but his body had already stood up uncontrollably.

He gritted his teeth, his face flushed red, trying to calm his wildly beating heart. But the more he suppressed it, the more his bloodline surged, as if cheering, leaping for joy, welcoming...

There was even a strange sense of closeness between them.

That feeling left Xuanwei speechless.

This is different from our usual closeness.

It was like a prodigal son who had been away from home for thousands of years seeing his biological father; the deep resonance of blood ties was something he simply couldn't comprehend.

He... treats the Daoist Dao Venerable like his father?

How is that possible?

Who does he think he is?!

He doesn't even deserve it!

If Dao Venerable hadn't been there, he would have loved to give himself two big punches.

This is utterly heretical, perverse, and contrary to reason and morality!!!

Hong Yuan naturally saw what Xuanwei was thinking.

He was somewhat at a loss for words, both amused and exasperated.

That's normal, though.

Although Xuanwei had no memories of the past.

But that respect and affection for him was deeply etched into his entire soul.

Xuanwei's Adam's apple bobbed slightly, his voice trembling with barely suppressed emotion. "Dao Venerable, um... did you save me?"

He kept his eyes downcast, his fingertips unconsciously rubbing his cuffs, not daring to meet Hong Yuan's gaze at all.

He was terrified that Hong Yuan would discover his rebellious idea of treating the Daoist Dao Venerable as his father.

Hong Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering gently in the eerie wind.

Hearing this, she chuckled softly and said, "I wouldn't say that."

He raised his hand and lightly tapped the void, and the scene of Xuanwei's battle with Xuanyuan slowly unfolded before Xuanwei.

Among them is a scene of Xuanwei's broken true spirit wandering in the Underworld.

"You never truly perished; I merely brought forward the date of your awakening."

Xuanwei stared blankly at the flickering scene before him.

There are not only scenes of him wandering the Underworld, but also everything that happened on the Primordial Wilderness battlefield.

The moment of his final showdown with Xuanyuan.

There were also images of the Qingwu Tribe members frantically searching for him.

He desperately wanted to tell his family that he had not perished.

He did not lose.

They did not lose to Xuanyuan.

The winner... is him!

However, before he could say anything to Hong Yuan...

Hong Yuan suddenly spoke, and his words startled Xuanwei.

"Your participation in this struggle for the Human Emperor title, and your view of Xuanyuan as a mortal enemy... is my doing."

Hong Yuan stood with his hands behind his back, his robes fluttering even without wind, and continued, "It was I who implicated your Causality with Xuanyuan."

With a thought, countless fine golden threads appeared in the void, the two most dazzling of which were tightly intertwined.

It is precisely the Causality thread between Xuanwei and Xuanyuan.

However, as the battle ended, these two golden lines were gradually dissipating at a visible speed.

"This is a test I've given you," Hong Yuan's voice suddenly carried an ancient echo, "And also a trial!"

"And you... you certainly didn't let me down, you did a good job!"

Upon hearing what Hong Yuan said, Xuanwei stood frozen in place, his face filled with astonishment and bewilderment.

Is this a trial given to him by the Dao Venerable?

Could it be that I have been under the watchful eye of the Dao Venerable since the day I was born?

He couldn't understand; he was merely a lowly human cultivator, what merit did he possess that warranted such elaborate efforts from the Dao Venerable?

Hong Yuan did not answer the question in Xuanwei's eyes, but simply looked at him with a smile, his gaze seemingly piercing through eternity and seeing through the Reincarnation.

"Now that you have completed your trials, it is time for you to return!"

"Return?"

These two words resounded like Chaos Bell, shaking even the most Xuanwei souls.

In an instant, countless fragments of memory within my consciousness surged back like a galaxy.

He saw himself standing atop the heavens, clad in black armor, with a million Heavenly Soldier kneeling before him.

In the end, he vomited blood from the heavens.

Then he saw himself playing chess with a woman in white, the chessboard covered with countless stars.

He even saw himself being devoured by a Demon Race, struggling in agony.

Such scenes are countless.

The most frequent images were those of his demise.

The behaviors of those who fall from grace are varied and bizarre.

Xuanwei couldn't understand why he had so many enemies.

"Dao Venerable, who exactly am I...?"

Xuanwei suddenly looked up, but before he could ask anything...

The vast Hong Yuan before them had vanished without a trace.

"Get out of here!!"

Suddenly a clear shout came from behind. Before Xuanwei could react, he felt an irresistible force coming from his buttocks.

Magnificent and vast.

But it didn't cause him any harm.

It simply carried him deeper and deeper into the Underworld.

Soon, a vast, boundless roulette wheel suddenly appeared before Xuanwei's eyes.

This roulette wheel is made of six colors and burns with Chaos fire. Every Dao Patterns seems to be telling the profound truth of the birth and death of the universe.

"This... this is..."

Xuanwei felt his soul tremble at just a glimpse of the roulette wheel.

The destructive aura emanating from that roulette wheel was a billion times more terrifying than any magical artifact he had ever seen.

The Chaos energy flowing across the surface of the plate contained the power to completely annihilate him, body and soul.

It even gave Xuanwei a terrifying thought that even a saint would perish and be annihilated if faced with this wheel.

However, this is not the most terrifying thing.

The scariest thing is--

He was flying towards the roulette wheel at an astonishing speed!

"Stop! Stop! Stop!!"

Xuanwei's face was contorted with rage as he struggled desperately, unable to hold back a cry.

But the force that was enveloping him did not stop in the slightest.

On the contrary, it has become even more prosperous.

"No way?!"

"Could it be that the Dao Venerable is going to..."

A terrible thought came to mind.

Xuanwei's face instantly turned ashen, and fine beads of cold sweat appeared on his forehead.

He seemed to vaguely see how he would die.

As time passed, Xuanwei drew ever closer to the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk.

"Ouch—"

Finally, only a piercing scream was heard.

Xuanwei transformed into a stream of light and was completely obliterated by the Six Paths Reincarnation Disk.

They vanished into the world.
