Chapter 4227 Satisfy His Obsession
In the past, both the Bold Conjecture House and Kincaid himself had opposed Elder Xue's idea of venturing into the Deep Space.
As a result, Elder Xue decided to leave abruptly, without so much as a goodbye. He only left a letter for them.
After that, they hadn't heard from him. After all this time, they figured he had perished.
And yet, now, Zen was claiming he had news from Elder Xue! Hence they felt shock mixed with doubt.
"Elder Xue? How is it possible that you saw him?" a long-haired monster inquired, his tone littered with doubt.
"Elder Xue went to the Deep Space alone back then," another long-haired monster mused aloud. "Although we thought he wouldn't survive, he did manage to avoid the catastrophe that happened in the main world..."
"Never mind that, he found the way to fuse with the ancestry-level bloodline!"
"When and where did you see him?"
The long-haired monsters buzzed with questions, their eyes brimming with excitement.
Zen shook his head regretfully. "I didn't see him personally, but someone else did."
As soon as he finished speaking, the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord's remnant soul emerged from above Zen's head.
He then recounted how he had met Elder Xue. He explained how he had hidden in the Jade Pure Realm and how Elder Xue had planned everything.
The long-haired monsters all listened closely, their shock steadily growing with each story the Grand Supreme Elderly Lord told.
Although they all shared the same roots and were all very smart creatures, they couldn't deny that they were impressed by how far Elder Xue had come.
"I must admit, Elder Xue is the most far-sighted person amongst the Bold Conjecture House..."
"I didn't expect him to come so far!"
"We should have believed him back then..."
While the other long-haired monsters discussed excitedly, a white-haired monster slowly took a few steps forward. "I was wrong about Elder Xue," he suddenly said, his tone filled with regret. "I had even scolded him back then. I didn't know he had so much alone..." Then, he smiled. "But what's important is, he made it!"
"May I know your name?" Zen asked him politely.
The white-haired monster cupped his hands courteously and said, "I am Hilario Wen, the chief of the Bold Conjecture House."
The strongest person in the Human Spirit Sect was Kincaid, the Human Spirit King. Below him were the Ten Directions House and the Bold Conjecture House. The two houses were responsible for military and civil affairs, respectively. Hence, Hilario was in charge of the latter.
Zen also cupped his hands and bowed in return.
Hilario studied Zen carefully. "The an
n of his daughter, her memories of the previous life didn't come with her. Thus, this father was a total stranger to her.
Dorothy had been brought up by Yasamin since she was a child, and she had been well taken care of in the Origin Mountain. It could be said that she was the apple of everyone's eye back home, but at the back of her mind, she hoped to see her parents all this time.
Now that she stood before her father, she felt mixed feelings.
Inside the Treacherous Being's body, Kincaid did not have a clear perception of the outside world. He was trapped in the cage of obsession, and his children had been his strongest obsession. When Dorothy was presented in front of him, alive, this information was like a beacon of light that shone into his dark world.
The cage that bound him started to break little by little...
"Has he woken up?"
one of the long-haired monsters grumbled after waiting for a long while.
"Shut up!"
The remaining long-haired monsters glared at him fiercely, shutting him up immediately.
Just then, Kincaid slowly raised his hand and stroked Dorothy's face. His eyes opened slowly, only to reveal tears streaming down his face.
Although the general atmosphere had been a bit glum, what with the news of Zen losing the irregular heavy sword, once they saw the Human Spirit King wake up, the mood instantly brightened.
At least...
They finally completed their mission.
Kincaid stared at Dorothy's face for a long while, his eyes filled with affection. Then, he slowly shifted his gaze to Zen.
"Young man, are you the one who took me out of the altar?" Kincaid asked.
Zen nodded. "Please forgive me, Master Kincaid. I took your sword but failed to keep it. It's in someone else's possession now."
As a result, Elder Xue decided to leave abruptly, without so much as a goodbye. He only left a letter for them.
After that, they hadn't heard from him. After all this time, they figured he had perished.
