Chapter 450: Difficult Decisions (1/2)

”What exactly... is your relationship with that... young and pale individual?” Due to the constant loss of blood, the elder stammered as he spoke.

Lu Wenshu shot the elder a cold glance and he decided to explain himself. ”Her name is Luo Chu.” The moment he was done speaking, he turned to leave.

Luo Chu? Why does this name sound so familiar? Where did I hear it before?

Feeling the blood dragon from his body, his thoughts seemed to come to a standstill. After some time, a face flashed through his mind and he felt that his mind was struck by a bolt of lightning. The evil dao witch...

Everyone knew that Lu Wenshu went crazy after her death. He even kicked disciples from his own sect out of the ruins of the Thousand Brilliance Temple when the Three Great Immortal Sects were present. Sentimental people never seemed to have good endings...

The words of a man on his deathbed definitely came from his heart. The elder managed to force his final words out of his mouth, ”Wenshu... Listen to me. If people like us are too emotional, we will only cause harm to others and ourselves.”

Lu Wenshu had already started to leave but a frown formed on his face when he heard what the elder said. ”What do you mean?”

As the elder’s life flashed before him, he thought about the time when he failed to obtain the title of chief disciple of his sect. It was all because he fell in love with a young lady without spirit roots.

Just as the name implied, a person without spirit roots wouldn't be able to cultivate. His relationship was something his sect would never allow to happen. How could an outstanding person on the path of cultivation be allowed to mix around with such an ordinary person?

He heard something about a spirit medicine that could help someone grow a set of spirit roots, and he managed to obtain a portion of the medicine for her. He never thought that it would be a trap set up by his master, and the ‘medicine’ was nothing more than a deadly poison for mortals. Her end could be imagined as she died after ingesting the spirit medicine he fed her. As he stole the ‘medicine’ from the hall, he was imprisoned in the commandment hall for ten years by his sect and he lost himself.

The elder slowly narrated his life story to Lu Wenshu.

Lu Wenshu never imagined that the elder suffered so much in the past. The sword in Lu Wenshu's hand shook a little and he continued to walk away without saying anything.

”Wenshu, listen to me...” The advice didn't finish but the elder had already taken his last breath.

Why did it become hard to breathe? Is the ruins closing?

The more he thought about it, the more curious he became. After all, he was already at a dead end.

After exiting the passage, Lu Wenshu returned to the room with the doors. To his surprise, Pei Rumo was already standing there.

The duo looked at each other and saw the suspicion in each other's eyes. They immediately return to the entrance.
