Enlightenment in the Dead Sea Reveals the True Heart, Great Fortune Brings Thriving Romance
"Back in the light!"
He had escaped the Dead Sea and returned to the Holy Spirit Continent.
When his mouth and nostrils were no longer filled solely with the Dead Sea's filthy water, and he could finally breathe fresh air, Zhu Yike could not help but let out a long howl.
Awesome! So awesome! Every time he emerged after being locked away, it always gave him the feeling of being "reborn."
But this time, that feeling was especially profound.
Zhu Yike had been born in the Southern Domain, raised amid filth and grime. He had dabbled in everything.
He had been a swindler, a robber, an assassin, a bounty hunter... As long as it could keep him alive, he took every kind of dirty, exhausting job.
He had experienced all sorts of dungeons—water cells, stone cells—and endured countless punishments.
Without exception, with the Golden Gate Thieving Art at his side, he had always escaped intact.
If one could live beneath the light, who would be willing to scrape by in some dim, shadowy corner?
Thus, after acknowledging Xu Xiaoshou as his master on Void Island, Zhu Yike had truly begun risking his life for him.
He knew his origins had not the slightest connection to absolute light. He would never pass the Holy Spirit Hall's selection.
An organization like Saint Slave, relatively righteous and with the Eighth Sword Immortal guiding it from above, was already the best and greatest opportunity he could ever reach.
He had risked his life to the point of confronting the Dao Hall Master head-on! Among the spiritual cultivators of the Five Domains, especially those born in the Southern Domain, who did not know what sort of figure the Dao Hall Master was? Calling him a "god" of the mortal realm would not be an exaggeration.
