"I don’t want to go back!"
Cirelle Moonshadow’s eyes were filled with determination: "Even though I know this ti they sent to the Illusory Moon Sect out of necessity, and I agreed myself, but I... don’t want this to happen again."
Carson Flores understood and sighed: "You agreed to co to the Illusory Moon Sect for your family, for your Sect, to repay the kindness of birth and nurturing. When you set off, you considered yourself already dead. Now, although you’re out of trouble, having experienced such emotional turmoil, you don’t want to return."
"Rationally, you can understand your grandfather’s decision, but emotionally, you’re very disappointed. Even though you’ve done it, in your heart you haven’t forgiven them, so you don’t want to go back, is that right?"
Cirelle’s tears fell instantly; she bit her lip and silently nodded.
Yes, these were her true feelings.
The genuine emotions.
She could sacrifice herself to repay kindness, but her heart was truly disappointed with them because they abandoned her.
Now the kindness is repaid, no debt or obligation, and having retrieved her life, from today on this life belongs to herself. So why go back?
If she goes back, if the sa thing happens again, would they make the sa decision, letting her sacrifice again?
No!
Sacrificing once for them is enough!
Cirelle wiped her tears with her hand and kowtowed neatly to Flowing Cloud: "Senior, I know my talents are limited, perhaps without great prospects, but I hope Wuling Mountain can accept as an ordinary disciple, to end this remnant life..."
Flowing Cloud smiled slightly: "Your beauty destines you not to live an ordinary life like others. Wuling Mountain is not suitable for you, besides, you’re young, saying things like ending your life, your future is long ahead."
Cirelle dared not hope Flowing Cloud would take her as a disciple, only wished to join Wuling Mountain, Great Sects like that, even as an ordinary disciple, to have so support; unfortunately, Flowing Cloud refused her.
Cirelle felt miserable and helpless; she understood clearly that without a sufficiently strong backing, her beauty would only bring her disaster.
Flowing Cloud laughed: "Since Carson helped you, he naturally wouldn’t help halfway... right, Carson?"
Carson smiled wryly: "Helping isn’t a problem for sure, but I myself don’t have a stable situation now. If she follows , life may be hard to find peace. I’ve spent this path rushing constantly and escaping."
Flowing Cloud bead warmly and said: "Didn’t you say you’re going to the Azure Divine Sect, planning to establish a Cave Mansion and stand on your own? Having one more person in the Cave Mansion, what’s the problem?"
Carson was resigned, turned to look at Selah Ellison; before Selah could speak, Cirelle already knelt directly before Selah: "Jaryth, please accept , from now on, I’ll serve as your maid, as a maiden, to repay you!"
Selah originally felt quite sympathetic towards Cirelle, she directly extended her hand to lift her up, smiling: "If you have nowhere to go, then co along with , as for the maid or maiden, just forget it."
Cirelle was overjoyed: "Thank you, Jaryth!"
Flowing Cloud laughed: "See, isn’t the matter resolved?"
Cirelle is indeed very beautiful, possessing a kind of captivating beauty, but Carson was not the type to be swayed by beauty upon sight. If there were a choice, he would even prefer Cirelle to go with Flowing Cloud and join Wuling Mountain, reducing trouble for himself.
But Flowing Cloud was unwilling, his wife also agreed, so the matter was only resolved in this way.
With the matter concluded, Carson ceased to worry, and straightforwardly said: "Alright, not much else to say, providing a safe place to cultivate will definitely be no problem."
Though the Cave Mansion was uncertain, the Ethereal Pagoda contained its own world. If Cirelle could endure solitude, she could fully live in the Ethereal Pagoda like Ben Singleton now, safe and serene.
Flowing Cloud was about to leave, but Carson asked: "Senior, previously when I saw you display Divine Skills, that willow tree was so formidable... is this your Innate Divine Ability?"
Flowing Cloud nodded: "Years ago, I attained Enlightennt under the willow tree and ascended to the Great Land. I needed to choose a type of tree as my Life-bound Spirit Tree, so I chose the willow. I searched for a thousand years and found the seed of this Destiny Willow, then refined it to beco my Life-bound Spirit Tree."
Carson hurried to seek advice: "In the Five Elents Wood Path, does everyone need to choose a Life-bound Spirit Tree?"
"That depends on you, but having a Life-bound Spirit Tree enables you to wield Divine Skills more effortlessly and with greater power. Of course, it requires more resources and effort to nurture and enhance the Life-bound Spirit Tree, so so choose, so don’t, it’s a matter of personal judgnt."
Carson inquired further: "If one wants to own a Life-bound Spirit Tree, how should they proceed, and how should they choose? Um, Senior, I’ve co this path, despite having teachers, most of it is through exploration and many things I don’t quite understand..."
Flowing Cloud opened his palm, and with a flash of light, a Jade Slip appeared in his hand: "This is the thod of choosing and cultivating a Life-bound Spirit Tree, you can look at it when you have ti. As for ultimately whether to choose a Life-bound Spirit Tree, you decide..."
