Chapter 158: Compensation
“If... I mean, if she were still alive, once we leave the Daoji Ancestral Land, everything that happened here would eventually come to light. At the very least, Mo Wanqiu would have her cultivation abolished by Tingyu Sect. Even if her father dotes on her, he would have to give an explanation to the families of the more than a hundred cultivators who died...”
“Even if, even if we take ten thousand steps back, and her father does everything to save her, from then on she won’t be able to gain a foothold in the Eastern Region. No matter where she goes, she won’t be able to hold her head high. Perhaps living would be more painful than dying... Allowing her the chance to commit suicide to atone for her sins is already the best outcome.”
Jiang Huai fell silent for a moment, and in the end, he could only let out a helpless sigh. This problem was unsolvable for him. Once he returned to Guangxue Mountain, he wanted to ask Chu Xianning for her opinion, to know how she would choose if she were in his shoes.
“Forget it, let’s not talk about this anymore.” Jiang Huai shook his head and looked at Xu Qing in front of him.
“The Daoji Ancestral Land will close in two days. Now that there’s no more immortal inheritance inside, I did feel some heavenly spiritual energy hidden within the Daoji Ancestral Land earlier, but I guess it’s all down to luck to find it now. Since Mo Dan is dead, it’s time for us to part ways.”
Xu Qing was startled at first, then she suddenly realized that it was indeed time to part. She stood up and said,
“Alright, then we’ll meet again if fate allows.”
Even though she had many things she wanted to say to Jiang Huai, it seemed there really was no reason to stay any longer.
Xu Qing stood up, but just as she took a step, Wen Wanwan behind her softly called out to her.
Xu Qing turned around, surprised, and saw that Wen Wanwan had four strands of heavenly spiritual energy rotating and floating in her hand. She had already formed a five-patterned spirit pill, and these extra four strands of heavenly spiritual energy were of no use to her.
In Jiang Huai’s sea of qi, there were also five strands of heavenly spiritual energy, gifts left by several true immortals when they parted. He couldn’t use these strands of spiritual energy, but they were compressed in his sea of qi by a secret method. If he ever returned to the Core Formation realm, he could directly form a five-patterned Golden Core again.
