Even now, Huibai is still thinking about how he made a wrong move, without any remorse whatsoever.
His gray eyes widened, glaring angrily at the crowd, and he roared:
"I'm human too! I've become like this because of you!"
"If you had protected me properly back then, how could I have been captured?"
"If I hadn't been arrested, I wouldn't be where I am today. Tell me, whose fault is this if not yours?"
Ye Hao suddenly fell silent.
He's right. As the captain, he did fail to protect them, and he bears responsibility.
Seeing Ye Hao suddenly deep in thought, Chongming went over, patted him on the shoulder, and comforted him:
"Captain, this isn't your fault, nor is it our fault,"
He looked again at the gray-white area and slowly said:
"Of course, you're not wrong either."
Grayish-white was taken aback.
How could they...?
Qin Feng also stepped forward and said to Gray:
"The one who did all this is the person who controls you, and it's all because of him."
Grayish-white bowed its head and remained silent.
Yes... if it weren't for that person, how could they have...
"Turn back, everyone is waiting for you."
Ye Hao said.
Everyone nodded in agreement, and even Ling Shuang, who had been standing to the side, came over.
"You...you all..."
Gray looked at the crowd standing in front of him, a glimmer of tears appearing in his eyes.
He did so many wrong things. Although they weren't hurt, he brought them here and caused them so much trouble. How could he...?
Zero looked in that direction, his heart trembling slightly.
If he sincerely repents, it's not impossible to forgive him... after all, their enemy is Li Su...
Grayish-white shook his head.
He can't...
Although he can act on his own now, he is still under control; he cannot harm them.
Thinking of this, he made up his mind and said:
"Thank you, I understand, but there's no going back now... I hope that in my next life, I can also be a member of your Thirteenth Legion..."
After saying this, he committed suicide.
As his body slowly collapsed, the corners of his tightly closed mouth finally turned up, and his tense expression relaxed...
At that moment, he felt that he had truly lived.
"Let's go..."
Without looking at the gray-white figure again, Ye Hao got up and left, followed by the others.
"it's over?"
Ling turned around and saw them approaching, then casually asked a question.
"Yes, he committed suicide."
Ling wasn't too surprised after hearing this; it seemed like everything was within his expectations.
He glanced at everyone, and seeing that nothing was wrong, said:
"Okay. You guys go back and rest first, I'll take care of things here."
Everyone nodded and went back to rest.
Zero looked at the corpses scattered on the ground and the broken foundation, and sighed.
Sigh...we have to fix the house again.
Fortunately, only the foundation was damaged, and repairs were quite easy.
Almost instantly, the ground returned to its original state.
Zero had just finished repairing when he heard the sword spirit call out to him:
"Zero, come here for a second."
The sword spirit was initially reluctant, but after the earth spirit explained the reason, he temporarily stopped worrying about the earth spirit recognizing him as its master.
However, this does not mean that he has accepted zero.
Therefore, he wanted to see if Zero was as exceptionally talented as Tu Ling had claimed...
Zero responded and walked to the sword spirit, respectfully saying:
"Senior, you were looking for me?"
Although he didn't know Dao Ling, since Dao Ling was an old acquaintance of his grandfather, he should respectfully address him as "senior".
Zero's politeness pleased Dao Ling, and her tone softened considerably.
He looked at Zero and asked:
What's your opinion on being outdated?
Zero paused for a moment, seemingly surprised that the sword spirit would ask this question. He replied neither humbly nor arrogantly:
"I regard Grandpa Tuling as a senior, and naturally I respect him. As for my opinion, I can only say that Grandpa Tuling has helped me so much, I am grateful enough, how could I have any opinion..."
Dao Ling nodded. He thought to himself that it made sense. He knew Lao Tu's personality; if he didn't truly value him, he wouldn't have helped Zero so much and even acknowledged him as his master.
Thinking of this, he asked again:
"If I asked you to terminate the contract now, would you agree?"
Terminate the contract?
Can a contract be terminated?
Zero was somewhat puzzled and remained silent for a moment.
What does the sword spirit mean? Does it want him to break his contract with the earth spirit grandfather?
However, he couldn't remember how he made a contract with Grandpa Earth Spirit.
As for Grandpa Tu Ling, it seems he was also told that he was summoned...
Seeing Zero's silence, the Blade Spirit assumed that Zero was unwilling to break the contract and wanted to continue using Tu Tu Ling. He turned to Tu Ling and said:
"See that, you old codger? I just asked him a question, and he couldn't say a word. That kid was definitely up to no good; he just wanted to use you!"
After saying a string of words, the sword spirit hurriedly said:
"No, you have to come with me. We'll terminate the contract right now!"
Before the Earth Spirit could speak, the Blade Spirit headed straight for Zero, seemingly intending to kill Zero and then forcibly terminate the contract.
He quickly stopped him and said gently:
"I didn't tell you before, but I was actually summoned by him, and he is very likely the reincarnation of that person..."
"Um?"
Upon hearing Tu Ling's words, Dao Ling made a sharp turn and returned to Tu Ling's side.
He asked uncertainly:
You mean that person?
Tu Ling nodded and affirmed:
"That's right, it's that sir."
Dao Ling didn't believe it immediately. He felt that Tu Ling was saying he was that person's reincarnation in order to protect Ling.
