(Part 2) 868: Chapter 277: Is My Child the One Who Conquered Faran?
(Part 2) “Ah?” Ye Yinzhu blankly felt MacMillan’s sincerity, unable to speak for a moment.
Could the Masters of Faran’s Seventh Tower be bought so easily?
A feeling of wry amusement sprouted within him.
Indeed, he couldn’t possibly understand the current state of mind of the few Tower Masters in Faran; in the eyes of ordinary people, they were akin to gods.
But who could know the extent of loneliness they bore?
Just now, when Ye Yinzhu suggested that his child bee Aubrey’s godchild, it seemed to awaken their human nature, much like a mother’s love for her child is the most selfless.
They were reminded of their former families and the feeling of kinship.
At that moment, they were almost desperate to feel it more deeply.
Even Aubrey, known for his posed temperament, couldn’t resist such feelings, let alone the other five Tower Masters.
Of course, it was only under various coincidences and on the premise that Ye Yinzhu had indeed reached a status equal to theirs that such feelings could emerge.
Haiyang pinched Ye Yinzhu, signaling him to quickly agree.
No matter whether the next child was born to Sura or Haiyang, having another Soul Tower Master as godfather, on top of Aubrey, wouldn’t Faran bee Ye Yinzhu’s family in the future?
Ye Yinzhu wanted to agree, but before he could even open his mouth, the other four Tower Masters had already rushed to say, “MacMillan, you can’t monopolize this; the next child should have me as the godfather.”
In unison, the same words, the same eager expressions, left Ye Yinzhu once again at a loss.
It seemed that he could not afford to offend any of them, and moreover, their intentions were absolutely sincere.
Ye Yinzhu suddenly realized that the six individuals before him were no longer just believers in magic or powerful Holy Sorcerers; they were just six old men, six lonely and piteous old men.
Even more astonished than Ye Yinzhu was the Saintess of Light, Marina, who stood to one side.
She had never seen her teacher display such expressions, never seen such a disregard for everything in bestowing the Sacred Blessing, nor had she ever witnessed these Masters of Faran’s Towers, whom she called her teachers, show more excitement than when vying for Super Divine Artefacts.
My God!
What on earth was happening?
“I spoke first; there should be some order,” MacMillan said discontentedly, glaring at the other four Tower Masters.
The Master of the Fire Tower, Sanders, whose temper was as fiery as his attribute, said, “Is there really an order for such a thing?
Ye Yinzhu and his family don’t even have a second child yet, so it should be up to Ye Yinzhu to pick.”
With pride, MacMillan declared, “Ye Yinzhu is fundamentally a Spirit Mage, akin to me.
Of course, he should choose me.”
Sanders snorted and said, “Do you really think you can teach spiritual magic better than Ye Yinzhu?
From this perspective, all four of us are stronger than you.”
To Ye Yinzhu’s amazement, Silas, the Master of the Water Tower, Wilkins, the Master of the Earth Tower, and Devon Casey, the Master of the Wind Tower, all nodded simultaneously, agreeing with Sanders.
“You, you all…” MacMillan, furious, actually raised his magic wand to strike at Sanders.
“Wait a minute.” A call, laden with Soul Shock, halted the five Tower Masters, on the verge of infighting, in their tracks.
Their gazes simultaneously turned toward the direction of the voice.
Feeling the attention of the five Tower Masters, Ye Yinzhu helplessly said, “Masters, my first child is not yet born.
Isn’t it a bit early for you to start arguing over this?”
The five Tower Masters were momentarily stunned, and they simultaneously realized with surprise: How could their emotions bee so agitated?
Considering their immense spiritual power and years of cultivation, their minds should be incredibly stable, and this sort of behavior should not have happened.
However, they soon came to terms with it.
Even Tower Master Aubrey had felt a change in his heart due to that small life; who were they to be immune?
Perhaps it really was loneliness.
These inner reflections led them to reminisce about their experiences throughout their lives.
Faran had indeed provided them with formidable power and a lofty status, but it had also deprived them of many things that should have been theirs.
Their eyes now dimmed, the five Tower Masters returned to their seats, evidently feeling somewhat downhearted.
Ye Yinzhu, clearly sensing the change in the Tower Masters’ emotions, smiled slightly and said, “Masters, there’s no need for distress.
For Faran, you have already sacrificed so much.
My wives and I are still very young.
So, here’s what we can do: If we have more children in the future, I would be honored to have you Masters as their godfathers.
I have two wives; I think having another five children shouldn’t be too difficult.”
Hearing Ye Yinzhu’s words, the gaze of the five Tower Masters immediately brightened up again, and MacMillan promptly said, “I’m reserving the next one.”
“No way, the second child should be my godson.”
The argument flared up again.
On the side, the Saintess of Light, Marina, couldn’t help but let out a laugh and said, “Teachers, what’s the difference between the second and the third?”
MacMillan almost blurted out, “Of course there’s a difference, Aubrey’s Sacred Blessing can only be used one more time.”
It was then that Ye Yinzhu realized what the five Tower Masters had in mind, and he shook his head helplessly, saying, “Masters, I think, you do not have the realization of what it means to be a father.”
MacMillan frowned and said, “The realization of being a father?”
Ye Yinzhu nodded and replied, “Master, do you think, if I had a child, how would I treat him?”
Without a second thought, MacMillan said, “Of course you would give him the best of everything, let him inherit your power, impart to him the most powerful abilities.
To bee a powerhouse of the future on the Continent.”
Ye Yinzhu shook his head and said, “No, you are wrong; I have never thought that way.”
The five Tower Masters’ looks towards Ye Yinzhu changed slightly, and Sanders couldn’t help but ask, “Why not?
Don’t you wish to see your child achieve something?”
Ye Yinzhu shook his head and replied, “No, I do not wish for that.
Masters, there’s a principle that you surely understand better than I do.
To gain something, there must be a sacrifice.
Outsiders only see your strength, but how could they understand the effort you put in behind that strength?
I don’t want my child to be without a childhood; I have no expectations of him.
As long as he can be born healthy and live a happy life, I am already content.
As a father, that is my only wish.”
At this time, Sura had already awakened from her earlier slumber, and her quick recovery was greatly related to the full-force Holy Blessing from Aubrey.
Of course, Aubrey knew that Sura cultivated abilities of Darkness, so when performing the Holy Blessing, he deliberately filtered out all his Light Attribute energy, leaving only the sacred aura to infuse into Sura’s body.
This was a significant reason why it caused him such a great expenditure of energy.
After absorbing the sacred aura, Sura awoke naturally after a brief sleep without any disfort, her whole body basked in a fortable languor.
Sura’s delicate hand reached out and settled in the palm of Ye Yinzhu.
As he turned to her, he could not see Sura’s expression, but he could clearly feel the warmth in her heart.
Indeed, as parents, what do they hope most for their child?
Health, safety, happiness – these are the expectations of a parent.
Those who wish their child to bee a dragon are not absent, but just as Ye Yinzhu said, at what cost?
Those who do not raise children will not understand the kindness of parents; a parent’s love for their child is always the most selfless.
MacMillan frowned and said, “But with your outstanding heritage, do you not wish to see your child live a mediocre life?”
Ye Yinzhu smiled and replied, “Master, you still haven’t grasped my point.
I will respect my child’s own choices.
If he wishes to bee strong, he will have to pay the price.
Conversely, if he just wants to live a simple, happy life, I would never force him to cultivate.
Everything will be up to him to decide.
I think that’s the best approach.
Imposing too many burdens on him might make him strong in the future, but truly, would he be happy?”
MacMillan took a deep breath, his eyes filled with emotion, “Yes, I understand now.
Thank you, Yin Zhu, you have taught me a lesson.
It seems our thoughts have always been confined to Faran, restricted to this narrow space.
It seems we are not fit to be godfathers to your child.”
Ye Yinzhu smiled and replied, “How could that be?
In fact, I earnestly hope that you masters could bee godfathers to my future child.
After all, with your strength, you would be their best umbrella of protection!”
All five Tower Masters laughed, feeling the sincerity in Ye Yinzhu’s words.
The unborn child seemed to have bee the best bridge between them, and the barriers hidden within their hearts were quietly fading away.
The banquet ended, and perhaps due to the great expenditure of the Sacred Blessing, Aubrey remained in cultivation.
Marina, standing in for her teacher, saw the guests out of the Tower of Light.
Back in the Dark Tower, Ye Yinzhu finally couldn’t hold back and burst into laughter, his joy indescribable in words.
“Who would have thought that it would be our child who conquers Faran.”
