Chapter 831: The Coming of Age Ceremony and the Establishment of a School (4)
Some masters were bewildered by the enormous temptation that Space brought, gradually straying off track, committing acts that harmed virtue, and ultimately suffering the consequences, disappearing from the world.
Some masters, however, remained resolute and were not led astray, but once they freed Space from its seal, they dumped all its affairs on it, treating it as a free slave, making it manage Space day and night to acquire a tremendous fortune. They disregarded its loneliness, never coming to keep it company, nor were they willing to continue performing good deeds to help it escape Space...
All the past events flashed before its eyes, and for the first time, tears welled up in Xuetuan’s eyes. Hope after hope followed by disappointment after disappointment, and even despair time and again, its heart had grown numb, not willing to continue searching for a new master, preferring to be trapped in the tiny Merit Pearl.
Yet, while it fell into slumber, it luckily awaited a young girl endowed with nine lifetimes’ worth of virtue. Even though the girl’s spirit was incomplete, at risk of dissipating from the world at any moment, it insisted on staying by her side until the opportunity to recognize its master came, smoothly activating Space.
As it turned out, its judgment that time was truly correct, even though it worried that the new master might die young, leaving it unable to escape the constraints of Space, it was willing to wait. Hence, when that explosion occurred, it took the risk of its spirit dissipating, breaking through the seal and leading its master through the void to return to her first life...
This was the most correct decision it had made since its consciousness had formed; it truly had found a master who genuinely considered its well-being, hadn’t it?
