Feeling Offended, Little Yellow Dragon Advances
He was clearly a lowly sycophant, but after Wu Chu said that, he was instantly transformed into a despicable scumbag who destroyed other people's harmonious families. This change in identity came too quickly, so quickly that Earth Dragon couldn't adapt at all.
The women who had previously shed tears for it no longer showed it any sympathy; instead, they glared at it with resentment, feeling that their feelings had been wasted.
Hong Yun never expected that, viewed from this perspective, this guy who was originally worthy of pity and sympathy would suddenly become so wicked.
This made him realize once again what the 'two sides of things' truly mean.
Zhen Yuanzi once again felt that Wu Chu's mouth was truly amazing; it seemed that he could talk the dead back to life, and in the blink of an eye, the situation was reversed, making everyone no longer sympathize with that guy.
Wu Chu shattered the golden Earth Dragon's illusion, and it seemed as if Earth Dragon entire life had lost its meaning, turning gray and devoid of any color. Its body, which had occasionally struggled, became limp and lifeless, as if even wriggling was a waste.
Upon hearing this, Wu Chu couldn't help but sigh softly and continued, "Life without love would indeed be much less vibrant, but life with only love is destined to be tragic. Many beings live their entire lives without love, yet they are just as carefree and at ease, aren't they?"
As Wu Chu spoke, he glanced at Zhen Yuanzi and Hong Yun beside him. The two seemed offended, blinking their innocent eyes as if to ask, "Why are you looking at me, my dear brother?"
Wu Chu continued, "To live for love, to die for love, to be madly in love for a lifetime—it seems noble, but it's actually selfish, harming others and causing suffering to oneself. In this world, besides love, there is friendship; besides a Daoist partner, there are friends, and many other beautiful things waiting for us to pursue; and the seemingly unattainable, yet actually right beneath our feet, Great Dao waiting for us to explore..."
Everyone listened quietly to Wu Chu's reasoning and boasting, and even thought he made a lot of sense. Even the limp, lifeless golden Earth Dragon glanced at him.
Just then, Wu Chu looked over at it and said, "I can grant you your freedom, but you must guard me for at least ten Epoch. If you truly love her, then you should do this last thing for her. Whether you stay or leave is entirely up to you. If you want to leave now, I won't make things difficult for you. I will seek an explanation from the Sky Wolf Clan. The choice is yours!"
At this moment, everyone was watching the golden Earth Dragon, waiting for it to make a choice.
The situation has completely reversed.
In the end, the golden Earth Dragon chose to stay and guard its last post for the one it once loved.
Seeing that the matter had been resolved satisfactorily, Wu Chu then instructed Little Moon Spirit to host a banquet.
After the banquet, Hong Yun and Zhen Yuanzi took their leave, preparing to continue repairing the earth's veins.
Watching a swarm of colorful butterflies of all sizes flutter around them, following their movements, Wu Chu couldn't help but think of that song, "My dear, fly slowly..."
He silently took out the Purple Moon Zither, sat cross-legged on a cloud, and played the zither as a farewell gesture.
After this parting, no one knows when they will be able to meet again.
The path of cultivation is long, each with its own brilliance and its own future. All we can say to each other is—take care!
The green hills remain unchanged, the clear waters flow on forever, until we meet again!
Before he even returned to Purple Jade Mountain, Feng Hen and Qingqiu Chen bid him farewell.
Feng Hen was there to act as a mediator, while Qingqiu Chen was there to provide support. Although the Sky Wolf Clan and the Qingqiu Fox were unlikely to fight, he still needed to make his stance clear.
Qingqiu Chen's actions made Wu Chu realize that it wouldn't be easy to get Qingqiu Li to completely ignore the Qingqiu Fox. Fortunately, there was a Qingqiu Fox branch in each of the Three Clans, so even if she wanted to manage them, she probably wouldn't be able to.
Afterwards, under the protection of his sister Fox Ancestress and his younger sister, Wu Chu began to enter a state of seclusion to refine the two Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure, mainly the Earth-Sinking Golden-Light Earth Dragon Mace.
Although the other party was a real living being, after transforming into Spirit Treasure, some Spirit Treasure restrictions were imprinted within its body, which can be refined.
Although once it is refined, it will completely lose its freedom, and whether it can leave will depend on Wu Chu's mood, Wu Chu cannot leave this unstable factor, which he cannot control, unattended in Purple Jade Mountain.
Even though he was protected by powerful treasures, and this Golden Light Earth Dragon might not be able to do anything to him, he wasn't the only one on Purple Jade Mountain; there were many weak creatures there too! He didn't want Little Moon Spirit, the Little Fox, his disciples, and those Little Flower Fairies to be threatened.
Therefore, refining it is necessary.
After refining it, Wu Chu released it and told it that it could stay on Purple Jade Mountain in the form of a living being, as long as it did not kill any living beings indiscriminately.
This was the greatest trust he could place in this Golden Light Earth Dragon.
However, this Golden Light Earth Dragon seems to have lost its purpose in life, completely in a state of despair. When Wu Chu released it, it simply burrowed into the earth, lay down in a ley line, and silently became a 'salty worm,' completely unwilling to move.
Next, Wu Chu continued refining the Transforming Rod. Although the Transforming Rod was a useless item, since it was a Supreme-Grade Spirit Treasure, its material must have met the standards.
Wu Chu didn't intend to waste it. Once his cultivation level improved, he could add other law restrictions to this Spirit Treasure, giving it some other reliable functions.
Time Yoyo, and years pass like flowing water.
Wu Chu's figure seemed to have vanished into the Purple Jade Mountain.
Centuries later, the three little friends were urged by the Little Fox to go into seclusion and comprehend the Indestructible Spirit Light that they would eventually be able to generate.
A thousand years later, Little Moon Spirit and the Little Fox also chose to go into seclusion.
Then there were Bai Ze and his pets, who did nothing all day.
Seeing that Purple Jade Mountain was becoming increasingly deserted, and Wu Chu showed no signs of leaving seclusion, Qingqiu Li also left Purple Jade Mountain and chose to return to Qingqiu to cultivate in seclusion.
The entire Purple Jade Mountain seemed to fall silent.
Only the Little Flower Fairies who hadn't gone into seclusion spoke softly, and all their movements seemed to carry a sense of caution.
Tens of thousands of years later, a dragon's roar echoed across the Purple Jade Mountain, and then a figure appeared before it, reaching out and tapping the yellow dragon on the head.
The yellow dragon shrank its head, scratching at it with its claws, "Master's wife..."
"Everyone is in seclusion. While it's great to celebrate your successful advancement, we still need to be a bit more modest."
This yellow dragon is none other than Little Yellow Dragon, the eldest disciple of Purple Jade Mountain. However, now that Little Yellow Dragon has successfully advanced to the Golden Immortal Realm and regained his human form, he is a young adult of about twenty years old, no longer the boy he once was.
He also hid the pair of golden dragon horns on his forehead. Although Dragon Clan have a habit of showing their horns, the Little Yellow Dragon, deeply influenced by the education of humility, already knew how to conceal his strength and how to play the fool to catch the tiger.
