Chapter 534 All the Helpless Choices Were Due to the Powerlesseness of the People Involved
“Your words are a little too modest. To be honest, if it weren’t for you, we definitely wouldn’t have been able to improve so quickly.
“Your lecture today not only raised Cnagqiong’s cultivation base to the second-level Godly Emperor realm, but even people like us have also improved quite a bit. It’s at least comparable to our bitter cultivation of more than ten years!”
Xuanyuan Long could not help but sigh. “Actually, this is only from a superficial point of view. In fact, the kindness you have shown us is far more than this.
“Back then, the Ancestral Dragon’s advancement had brought some benefits to the Xuan Yuan clan, such as the Godly Emperor’s favor.
“However, when he was at the first-level Godly Emperor realm, he chose to sever his bloodline connection with us. Therefore, we did not receive too much favor.
“Of course, to be honest, our Xuan Yuan clan did not provide much help to the Ancestral Dragon, so we did not have the qualifications to ask him for help. He had already given us quite a lot.
“However, similarly, we did not give you too many resources. You are the same as the Ancestral Dragon. You have practically grown up on your own.
“Yet, you have helped us so much and even specially guided us in our cultivation.
“Just based on this point, the Xuan Yuan clan should open a monument for you.”
The others also nodded.
“Elder Long is right. The Ancestral Dragon did raise the reputation of our Xuan Yuan clan, but you are the one who has truly given us more gifts. These gifts are enough to truly change the future of the entire Xuan Yuan clan!”
Ye Xiao was silent for a moment before he opened his mouth to explain,
“Actually, you can’t say it like that.
“The Ancestral Dragon was an existence with great wisdom and great dreams. He had a grand goal that mortals would never know or even dare to dream of even if they knew.
“The path he chose made him have no choice but to offend many people. He had no choice but to sever ties with the Xuan Yuan clan in advance.
“This was because he would offend many people, but it was impossible for him to guard the Xuan Yuan clan at all times.
“Only by severing ties with everyone can he pursue his goals with peace of mind and not let his enemies make a move against the Xuan Yuan clan.
“Otherwise, I believe that with his character, he shouldn’t care about it and allow himself to advance a little more, allowing the members of the Xuan Yuan clan to borrow his bloodline power to improve a little more.”
Speaking up to that point, Ye Xiao felt that sometimes, life was indeed filled with a lot of helplessness.
In the face of many things, people were always powerless and had to make a certain choice.
He remembered that there was a very popular saying in his previous life.
‘If I pick up the saber, I can’t hug you tightly.
‘If I put down the saber, how am I supposed to protect you?’
Of course, there were also some more complicated factors involved on the Ancestral Dragon’s side. That was his dream.
Ye Xiao felt that there was actually nothing wrong with that. Although the Ancestral Dragon was a descendant of the Xuan Yuan clan, he had advanced to the Godly Emperor realm and raised the bloodline power of the Xuan Yuan clan. It was also enough to repay his fellow members of the Xuan Yuan clan.
Moreover, the Xuan Yuan clan did not know of his existence in the beginning, nor did they provide him with any resources or assistance.
At most, it could only be said that the Xuan Yuan clan had given him life. Otherwise, there might not have been him.
However, what he had done was already enough to repay.
Humans always had to fight for their dreams. If he was like a dog, chained to his neck by the shackles of his fellow members and lived like a dog, that would not be him!
Ye Xiao thought that he would rather give up his life than just be a Godly Emperor.
The strong had the stubbornness of the strong. If they did not step onto the peak of the nine heavens, they would not be satisfied!
However, when he thought of that, Ye Xiao thought of another sentence.
All the pain and helpless choices were the embodiment of the person’s lack of ability.
The Ancestral Dragon was a man and not a god. He used himself to prove his martial way of life and chased after the immortal path. That was why he made the decision to sever ties with the Xuan Yuan clan.
Ye Xiao did not want to do that. He did not want to give up on his friends and clansmen.
Therefore, that meant that he wanted to make himself an unparalleled martial arts prodigy, an existence that was extremely strong!
He had decided that he would first go into seclusion and cultivate for a year. He would first surpass the current Godly Emperor realm and become a Supreme Eternal!
When everyone heard his words, they nodded. Then, they opened their mouths and said,
“Of course, we have no intention of blaming the Ancestral Dragon. Everyone knows in their hearts that he has his own difficulties. Moreover, he doesn’t owe us anything. Instead, we owe him some favors.
“However, the problem we’re talking about now is that you’ve given us so many favors. We want to open a monument for you to pass on. We want your name to forever be branded in the hearts of every member of the Xuan Yuan clan.”
Ye Xiao waved his hands repeatedly.
“I don’t object to you guys going to open a monument for you to spread your legacy. However, there’s one point. Before I advance to the Supreme Eternal, no one is allowed to leak any information about me. Right now, I only want to quietly cultivate here. I don’t want to provoke anyone.
“Don’t give me any trouble. I don’t want to be killed by others.”
Everyone burst into laughter.
They all thought that Ye Xiao was joking with them, but in reality, Ye Xiao was really not joking with them.
There were so many martial arts masters outside, so it was better to take it easy.
“You guys go back today and digest the knowledge that I’ve taught you. After you guys digest it all in two days, I’ll teach you some decent archaic masterpiece techniques.”
