Chapter 20: The Clan Leader’s Sacrifice ( - 3, Additional Update)
"But without the Purple Sun Jade, in thirty years, elder brother will have to pass away." Lu Tianyi said.
"Passing away, is just passing away, it’s nothing significant." Mentioning death, Lu Tianming was calm, as if he were discussing a trivial matter: "Who in this world can escape death? Even a Nascent Soul ancestor will turn to dust after thousands of years. Cultivators don’t fear death; they fear dying without value, dying with grievances. To die for the prosperity of the clan seems quite fitting."
"To me, living two hundred years more or less is the same."
"For two pieces of Purple Sun Jade, to extend my life by two hundred years at the expense of the Lu Family’s future, I cannot do it."
"Elder brother, you..."
Lu Tianyi said, sometimes wishing his elder brother were a bit more selfish.
But it was precisely because elder brother was selfless that he became the Clan Leader.
Lu Tianming continued, "Xuanji, what do you think?"
"Clan Leader, Grand Elder, here’s what I think," Lu Xuanji said, "Some decisions we can make, but others we cannot. The future of a Celestial Spirit Root is not for us to decide. Perhaps we should wait ten years and let her decide whether to stay with the clan or join the Dan Yang Sect."
"We don’t have the right to make decisions for a Celestial Spirit Root cultivator. In ten years, she will have grown up and gained the right to choose."
