Chapter 292: Rebirth - I Became the Grandpa (16)
"Master… Master?"
Dongfang Yunxing was so startled by Su Chen's sudden appearance that he fell back onto the ground. Shock and joy flashed across his face, quickly replaced by guilt.
"Master… I…"
He stammered, unable to form a complete sentence.
Su Chen stood with his hands behind his back, quietly observing his disciple. "I heard everything you said just now."
Dongfang Yunxing lowered his head in shame. According to his master's usual style, he would have endured in silence and later slaughtered both the Drifting Snow Sacred Land and the Great Sun Sacred Land. Yet he could not bring himself to do the same. He was simply walking to his death.
Su Chen spoke calmly, "You were right about one thing. The choice you have made is indeed very foolish. However… In a person's life, one must occasionally do something foolish in the name of passion. Only then can one avoid losing oneself over the endless years."
In Su Chen's eyes, Dongfang Yunxing's decision was utterly stupid—little different from throwing his life away. Yet it stirred something in his heart, which had remained unmoved for countless millennia. It was a foolish act, but the Su Chen of the past might have done the same.
Joy replaced the shock on Dongfang Yunxing's face. His master did not blame him for his choice.
