"But this time, this old man will have to break his promise. The road ahead will have to be walked by you alone."
After speaking, a trace of helplessness flashed through Xu Changsheng's eyes.
This time, he had helped Ye Lin wipe out two Golden Immortal factions. Though those people said nothing, they had already begun to resent him in their hearts.
If he became Ye Lin's protector, only to return someday and find his Shu Mountain Sword Sect gone, that would be a disaster.
The Shu Mountain Sword Sect was the foundation he had cultivated in the Demon Domain for many years.
Only with the Shu Mountain Sword Sect around could the Human Race in the Demon Domain live somewhat less harshly. If the Shu Mountain Sword Sect were gone, the Human Race in the Demon Domain would once again become food for the various races.
The Shu Mountain Sword Sect was still relatively fortunate. Across the entire Star River Cosmos, the Human Race's circumstances were simply too terrible to bear looking at.
In some places, the Human Race was powerful; in others, they were beneath dogs.
This was a common failing of every race.
