Chapter 449
“Senior, I’m puzzled by something.”
Su Wen didn’t answer the Battle Master’s question and instead asked directly, “From the recent war, I can clearly sense that if we charge into the Remnant Universe without hesitation, fearless of death…”
“Then with our powerful life force and the ability to fight on through nirvana, we could drag the Remnant Universe down with us, couldn’t we?”
“So why have things come to this?”
“Why are we at this most dangerous moment of the Ninth Age?”
The Battle Master looked at Su Wen and, after a pause, said softly, “Child, I’m sorry.”
Su Wen was startled and asked, “Why are you apologizing, senior?”
“I owe you an apology, and to the entire Human Race of the Ninth Age.”
The Battle Master spoke gravely, “If not for our failure, perhaps you would have been born in the prosperous First Age of the Human Race.”
