Chapter 3818: Chapter 1842: Hospital Room 2
"Xu Xiaoshou is not one to forget favors, I believe he also holds you in high regard, even after meeting the Demon Ancestor."
Demon Ancestor...
Kong Yuhen was slightly alert.
Indeed, Xu Xiaoshou had met the Demon Ancestor, their secret conversation was even beyond his eavesdropping.
Bazhun’an’s meaning was clear.
Sometimes it seems like you’re making a choice for yourself, but in reality, others might be contemplating whether to change the target too.
"I always believe in Xu Xiaoshou."
Bazhun’an spoke decisively, his intention was unwavering.
With a smiling gaze, he looked at the young man sitting cross-legged on the ground, "I’ve watched him grow all along, and I know his temperament best, ’As long as you’re true to me, I’ll be true to you’, this should be the best portrayal of his character."
As he spoke, he moved and walked slowly to the tea table to sit down, pouring himself a cup of tea.
He just held the cup, not drinking it, allowing plenty of time for Kong Yuhen to think, then he continued:
"I know, they too have given a lot."
"Whatever your final choice is, I won’t interfere."
"But if it’s as Cursed Yin said before, that this is unjust, I also ask you for a judgment... Has this young man developed too quickly, just a few years and he has to face the Ancestral God head-on?"
Kong Yuhen listened absentmindedly.
Cursed Yin was chased previously, came to the pavilion for an explanation, Hallmaster Dao and Xu Xiaoshou followed close behind.
In the end, the justice sought ended unresolved, both sides fought and killed, it was Rao Wangze who died.
And now Bazhun’an comes seeking justice, after his words, it indeed awakens, Xu Xiaoshou has only debuted for one or two years.
If his parents were here, wouldn’t they be heartbroken for this poor child?
Bazhun’an was very much like a father to Xu Xiaoshou, with a hint of melancholy, without waiting for Kong Yuhen’s response, he raised his cup, and said himself:
"Brother Yuhen, the Ancestral God’s scheming cannot be underestimated."
"After Sword Deity Hua, regardless of victory or defeat, I will have no strength left to handle the situation, Xu Xiaoshou will have to take charge alone."
"And under the relentless pressure from the Ancestral God, like a lone boat without a paddle, even though I leave The Divine and Cao Yihan for him, they might be gradually overcome, the Ancestral God is indeed formidable."
"Everything else aside, the only thing I ask is that if he appears exhausted or if Hallmaster Dao intervenes to plot against him, and he is unable to deal with it... in such case, I request your assistance, Brother Yuhen, to help Xu Xiaoshou."
"This favor, this emotion, I, Bazhun’an, will remember, Xu Xiaoshou will also remember."
After saying this, regardless of how Kong Yuhen responded.
With tea as a substitute for wine, Bazhun’an raised the cup above his head, made a respectful gesture, then drank the tea in one gulp.
"Thank you!"
Ah this...
Kong Yuhen felt troubled for the first time.
He cannot, at this moment and in this place, promise Bazhun’an what he requested, otherwise, he would not be able to remain independent later on.
But Bazhun’an’s goodwill was hard to refuse.
"Snap."
Bazhun’an did not want to cause undue difficulty.
He gently placed The Four Pillars of Destiny Token on the table.
This token was obtained from Xu Xiaoshou when he summoned Abyss Island with Sword Me during the birth of Ghost Buddha.
"I gave this to Xu Xiaoshou in the White Cave, and told him that whenever he encounters a major event in the future, unsure of how to decide, he can reveal this token to solve a few problems."
"Even now, if he finds himself unable to cope in the future, I ask Brother Yuhen to pass on this token, let him call my true name, and I might still assist him."
"As for you..."
Bazhun’an paused with a smile: "Help if you can, if not, then forget it."
After pressing down The Four Pillars of Destiny Token and finishing his words, he also pulled out the secondary plane door and tapped it forward on the tea table.
Kong Yuhen, seeing this, closed his eyes heavily.
After a long while, he too walked over, sat at the tea table, raised the teacup already cold, and drank it in one gulp.
"Certainly."
...
"This is again..."
Behind the second door’s world, someone was surprised.
It wasn’t unfamiliar, on the contrary, it was overly familiar—it was a hospital room!
The white hospital room, the walls are white, the bed is white, the sheets and bedding are white, everything looks new, it’s a comfortable and warm room.
Yet despite the "white" and "new", it didn’t convey a bit of purity, when Xu Xiaoshou opened his eyes, he still felt only the loneliness and suffocation of his past life.
"What is this, taking me back to my past life?"
"Or is this my soul space?"
In Shengshen Continent, Xu Xiaoshou had been in a similar hospital room.
He understood his heart under Senior Rao Yaoyao’s Red Dust Sword, breaking through to the Heavenly Image State.
In retrospect, this is still the basis of Two-Life Connection, Reincarnation Token.
If it weren’t for proving his heart then, embracing the bitter life of his past self, and accepting this life as true, and the previous life as false, he might have continued down a misguided path in cultivation.
"But it doesn’t seem like soul space..."
That time in soul space, Xu Xiaoshou also saw Flame Python, Fourth Sword, and the highly intelligent Hidden Bitter, but not this time.
There’s significant difference!
Clearly, this isn’t the "home" in memory, it should have ties with the river of time.
Should be bringing "time" back to the previous life.
And as per the words spoken by Time Ancestor or the silhouette of Kong Yuhen by the pavilion, the world behind the first door was called "the past."
Now, what should this hospital room behind the second door be called?
The future?
"Doesn’t seem like the future..." Xu Xiaoshou click his tongue.
This obviously resembles his past, how could it be the future?
