Zhou Zeyuan, who fell into demonic ways on his own, is a disgrace to the sect and should be eliminated. However, the Azure Dragon Immortal Venerable, whom they have always loved, has now lost all his cultivation due to the pain of losing his son. How can this not be heartbreaking?
And what about the little chubby bird they watched grow up? Such an adorable dumpling, the most beloved and senior cub in the entire sect, how could it just die like that?
The sect leader returned to his cliff and remained secluded for several days, seemingly too devastated to emerge from seclusion.
When he came out again, the kind-looking middle-aged man had become an old man with white hair.
Because even the sect leader wavered.
He kept thinking about Little Fatty's departure and the Celestial Venerable's heartbroken appearance. As the protected disciple, he was unable to help the divine beast he served, nor could he shield it from the heavenly lightning that punished the divine beast for falling into demonic ways.
"I'm getting old... I'm getting old... The lifespan of mortals is but a fleeting moment in the grand scheme of things. In the end, we are nothing more than mayflies or summer insects in the eyes of immortals."
"When I was a child, I once saw the celestial form of a blue dragon soaring through the air. My mother told me that as long as you see a dragon, you will have a healthy and peaceful life, and live to be a hundred years old. My mother said that the blue dragon protects all of us. Later, when I became the sect leader, I finally met the Celestial Venerable for the first time..."
"He looked cold and aloof, but he reached out and brushed a speck of dust off my shoulder."
"The Immortal Venerable is a gentle person, and he finally had a beloved child..."
"So even if my power is like a mayfly trying to shake a tree, I am willing to give everything for the Immortal Venerable and my child. I am willing to use my life's cultivation as an array to summon spirits back to life!"
Perhaps becoming an immortal isn't that important to the sect leader.
Besides his own attainment of enlightenment, he also hoped that the immortals and the cubs could be happy.
Looking at the sect leader like this, the cub suddenly heard its father's voice:
"Do you see that? This is the blessing that protects all living beings."
"Humans rely on gods, but gods are born from faith..."
The cub nodded while crying, muttering softly, "I understand."
The main system thought the baby was crying because of the sect leader's spirit of sacrifice. While taking out an ice pack to apply to the baby's eyes, afraid that he would hurt his eyes from crying, it continued to take him to wander in this world.
The cub would wipe its tears on his clothes at the drop of a hat. Although the system knew this was just data, it looked down at its wet clothes several times, wondering how many tears the cub had shed. How could it cry so much? Would it cry itself dry?
The main system's gaze gradually slid over the various water containers on the side. Every time it passed a water cup or a stream, it would stop there for a while.
The cub stopped crying and turned to look at the main system:
"Hey, do you need to pee?"
"I can cover it for you, shh."
As he spoke, the cub slid off his lap. The cub, which was only as tall as the main system's thigh, tried to stand on tiptoe to cover him from the waist down.
The main system was speechless. It grabbed the kid who was spread-eagled and brought him to Emperor Chongle.
"Father!!"
The cub immediately abandoned the system and ran over, but he missed.
The soul cannot come into contact with real people.
The little one looked at his translucent little hand and carefully placed it on Emperor Chong Le's hand again.
"Okay, come here."
The main system, which was a little angry just now, softened its heart when it saw how disappointed the cub looked.
"Once you are resurrected, your father and the others will be able to see you."
The cub didn't listen; his gaze remained fixed on Emperor Chongle as he watched him bow his head, review several memorials, put down his pen, and stand up to look out the window.
“The child hasn’t been home for several days.”
Emperor Chongle seemed to be talking to himself.
Ning Guanyan, standing nearby, understood what Emperor Chongle meant, but he could only offer him advice:
"After all, the cub is now a child of the Azure Dragon family. The Azure Dragon, like His Majesty, is all alone, so naturally he is very reluctant to part with the cub. Moreover, the cub is still a child, and it is normal that he does not know how to deal with the competition for favor between fathers. After all, even ten fingers are of different lengths, so how can people not distinguish between close and distant relatives?"
"The cubs nowadays may be more affectionate towards the Azure Dragon because of their chick-like bond, but no matter how much the Azure Dragon tries to compete, it will never be able to compete with the affection you have for the little prince, who spends every day with you."
"Your Majesty, you just need to keep playing the victim and crying as before, and the cub will definitely still be close to you."
Emperor Chongle said quietly, "You mean I'll have to compete for favor with all the relatives who have spent time with the cubs?"
Ning Guanyan: "Uh, this..."
Emperor Chongle continued, "Moreover, I asked the cub before if I was his favorite father. The cub did not answer. I guess that the cub must have a favorite father who is the first to regard him as his own child and cherish him like a treasure."
"At my age, my children should be fighting for my affection, but instead, I have to work hard to compete with other men for my children. If only a bolt of lightning could strike them all dead."
Ning Guanyan: "Your Majesty, stop daydreaming. With your petty... no, your ability to be jealous, you're sure to be able to climb up to the upper class."
Emperor Chongle: "Ning Qing, why do I feel like you're insulting me?"
Ning Guanyan coughed a few times, trying to slip away, but then he remembered that his unfilial disciple had been burned into a stick by the cubs, so he couldn't escape.
"Cough cough..."
Perhaps it was the growing chill of the night, or perhaps it was the pangs of longing that made Emperor Chongle's face appear somewhat sickly, but his gaze softened:
"It doesn't matter, even if my son doesn't recognize me or remembers me, it doesn't matter, as long as he can live a happy and healthy life..."
As long as my baby lives a long and healthy life...
The cub recalled some past events, remembering who first called him "baby" and who first made him experience the sweetness of family affection.
Day after day, from beginning to end, the fact that the cub was able to come this far is all thanks to the blessings and hopes of all his relatives.
The child understood what the power of will was.
In the system space, the progress of the memory cards increased rapidly, jumping from 20% to 80% in one go.
The little cubs on each card are now more vivid and more excited.
It seems to mean that they are one step closer to going home.
The cub's soul also ignited, burning along with his body in the dragon pool, turning to ashes.
Then, it was reborn from the ashes.
The chubby little bird has truly transformed into the mythical beast Vermilion Bird. The beautiful bird carries the rising sun on its back, bringing hope, and soars between heaven and earth.
As all beings knelt in prayer, the divine bird Vermilion Bird turned around and flew to the Dragon Pool of the Tianyan Sect.
Feathers, like flowing flames, landed in front of the Azure Dragon. The Azure Dragon raised its head and looked at Qian Yuan.
