"What conditions do you have? Just say the word, Brother Qingyuan!"
Ancestor Minghe was delighted inwardly and hurriedly pressed for an answer.
The First Disciple of Intercepting Sect had not immediately rejected him. Instead, Qingyuan said that karma was not so easily repaid, which meant he truly had a way to help Minghe advance further on the Great Dao.
Blocking one's path was like murdering one's parents.
But renewing one's Great Dao was like granting one a second life!
How could Minghe not understand the weight of such karma?
He immediately promised all sorts of generous benefits.
Unfortunately, after hearing them, Qingyuan merely shook his head and smiled without answering directly.
This made Minghe anxious. He hurriedly said, "Brother Qingyuan, just name your price. So long as I, Minghe, can do it, I will never refuse!"
"The grace of the Great Dao is far beyond what ordinary little favors can settle. As the saying goes, great kindness breeds great resentment. This junior fears that one day, Uncle Master Minghe might kill me to repay the favor!"
Qingyuan shook his head and said this with a smile.
Minghe immediately grew anxious.
He nearly cursed the two Saints of the West in his heart.
Yet he still held back his urge to curse aloud. In his desperation, Minghe suddenly grabbed Qingyuan's hand and shouted toward the heavens, "Great Dao above, Heavenly Dao bear witness! From this day onward, I, Minghe, am willing to become sworn brothers with Qingyuan. Henceforth, I shall treat him as my own younger brother. Should my younger brother face trouble someday, I will surely aid him with all my strength. I shall never break faith or betray righteousness. If I violate this oath, may my Great Dao advance no further!"
Rumble!
Blood Thunder rolled across the skies above
