945 Willingly Serve (1/2)
”In the end, I still dragged Shou'er you into this…”
The voice spoke calmly as a person suddenly appeared beside Zong Shou.
They patted his shoulder to console him.
Zong Shou was silent and although he felt rage and hatred within, he was mostly overcome with helplessness.
There was really nothing he could do about the Extreme Flame Saint Venerable.
What he didn't understand was why Lu Hanyan was willing to head back with Jueyan.
The person beside him said with melancholy, ”You don't have to be like this. When your mother gave birth to you, she owed her grandfather a lot. Although she broke free, she has her own responsibilities and debts to pay. The Sky Burning Saint Emperor is a righteous person and shouldn't have reached a stage where he was all alone and kicked off his throne. I am not only happy to see your mother go with that choice, but I am also glad that she did…”
Zong Shou frowned as he didn't fully understand the grievances and kindness that his parents experienced.
Since Zong Shou was reassured by Zong Weiran that his mother had her reason for doing so, then she definitely a valid reason.
He just didn't expect that the Sky Burning Saint Emperor Lu Beiwu would have such a high evaluation within Zong Weiran's heart.
He sighed, turning around and looked beside him.
He hadn't seen him for many years and his father was looking more and more handsome. His face had a few more tough lines, his body was still the same but had become more mountain-like.
His eyes looked like he had gone through the hardships of life. Although the current situation wasn't good and he was trying his best to hide it, the awakened Blood Eyes ability could see through it all.
He bowed respectfully, saying in a sad tone, ”Father, you have suffered! Son came too late…”
He knew Zong Weiran was just to the side and Lin Xuanshuang was waiting outside, which was why he wasn't afraid of Tianqing Venerable.
With the World Burning Blood Eye, his combat strength within the Nine Extreme Death Jail could compare to Peak God Realm.
If he worked together with Zong Weiran, they would be able to battle Lu Tianqing.
However, at this moment, he also felt fortunate that the Saint Venerable acted in time.
Although the two of them had a chance of winning, but even if they did, Zong Weiran's injuries would have gotten even worse.
He felt guilty. If his father had not given him the Book of Eon, would this have even happened?
A step to Saint Realm, if he had the book, then even in front of an End Realm, he would be able to escape.
”You saw it? Lu Family peak ability is really extraordinary!”
Zong Shou's was a little startled, he felt a little awkward hearing these words.
The first few sentences displayed his father's worry. His heart felt warm and he explained in response, ”It is okay! If one owes too much, a little more is nothing, it is just a small matter.”
He too hated Lu Tianqing down to his very core and especially those Red Hummingbirds.
To be able to send that person to the Animal Path to be tortured for many lives was well worth the small price he paid.
Not to mention, how he unknowingly owed the Buddhist Faction a lot.
At most, he would help them when they wanted to create the true Blessed Land of Amitabha.
Just a little help! Not too much.
Zong Weiran laughed and looked forward with a profound expression. To have such a son, what more could he ask for?
He thought back to Lu Hanyan who had left with Jueyan and his face dimmed.
20 years had passed and although the two met, they didn't even get to speak to one another.
The Sky Burning Saint Dynasty was turbulent and dangerous and she needed to deal with many outright and hidden problems.
His eyes flashed and he said solemnly, ”Shou'er! It is okay to head over to the Saint Dynasty to help your mother and your great grandfather…”
Zong Shou was stunned, looking at Zong Weiran whose dimmed, ”Although I am her husband, to the Lu Family I am an outsider, so I can't interfere. Not only would I not help, but it would make her situation worse. You are the only one who can help her now!”
Zong Shou was silent when he heard this as he entered deep thought.
Return to the Sky Burning Saint Dynasty to become the top Prince? Wouldn't that be what Jueyan wanted?
However, he really had no other choice.
Just as he was thinking about this, Zong Weiran turned toward the broken Nine Extreme Death Jail, his brow furrowing.
”Who are you? Why did you follow us and not leave this place.”
Only at this moment did he realize the aura was weird and he quickly became wary.
In the next instant, he saw a person step out from the void.
It was a middle-aged man. Although he was just wearing a prison uniform and brandishing a badly made sword, when he walked over he looked really majestic and cool, causing one's heart to flutter.
Zong Shou studied the Sword Path in the last life and also focused on this.
He could sense the really sharp Sword Intent that was gathered on his brow.
