Chapter 2412 - When the Sword Hum Rings Out
The gray-robed man was called Lu Dongxing.
In the God Domain, he had another, even more resounding title: Master God Eastwalker!
But just as he was about to rush out of the city, an old man in black robes stopped him.
“You still have family and clansmen in the God Domain. Your wife, children, and grandchildren are waiting for you to return. If you go into battle, what will become of them?” asked the old man in black. “Let me go instead.”
Lu Dongxing glowered. “Let go of me!”
The old man in black was just about to say something when Lu Dongxing shoved him away without hesitation.
“Have you thought this through, Lu Dongxing!? Over the past eight years, everyone who’s agreed to do battle has either perished or been taken captive. Do you really just not care about your friends and family in the God Domain?” roared the old man.
“Who among those who’ve gone into battle before me didn’t have friends and family? Yet they went boldly to their deaths. Why can’t I?” said Lu Dongxing without so much as turning to look at him. “Ol’ Mo, if you really want to look out for me, get out of my way!”
He spoke with firm conviction, his voice echoing in all directions.
Everyone looked moved.
Luo Yao sighed. “Don’t try to dissuade him any further. Let Brother Lu go.”
Lu Dongxing smiled and nodded at her, then hesitated, took a deep breath, and clasped his fist. “Miss Luo Yao, it’s because we had you overseeing things in Dao_Seeking City that we’ve overcome all the perils we’ve faced thus far. All of us have borne witness to your effort and sacrifice. Please, allow me to thank you!”
