Chapter 1519 - 1466-1467: The Storm is Coming, Shen Xiao’s Internal Struggle_2
Just as it is with my master, his cultivation had reached a level unparalleled by anyone before or after, he ought to seem to others as utterly free, without any restraints.
But only those who are close to my master, those who have had dealings with him, know that even beings as mighty as my master are similarly bound and encumbered.
My master was carrying the burden of the Shenxiao Sect, shielding it from wind and rain; he was also carrying the Heavenly Court, endorsing its expansion; and even more so, he was bearing the hopes of countless cultivators in the Divine Land World, constantly pioneering their cultivation, seeking new directions and destinations. Therefore, even my master was not free.
Of course, this is what Pang Hong saw from his perspective, perhaps to these formidable beings like his master, despite bearing such burdens, they could still forge ahead through the thorns and brambles, and find joy in it.
No different from Pang Hong now, he had shouldered many things, but he could no longer find joy in them, they had instead become pressure, so he didn’t want to continue.
But sometimes it’s not just a matter of wanting to give up, one cannot simply give up with ease, he owed others an explanation; otherwise, he would let them down.
This Uncle Yu Zhenzi before him, along with the other uncles, they had graced him with teaching and resolving his doubts, and had supported his development of the Shenxiao Sect till now. How deep was their kindness? Could he be sitting in this position without their contributions?
Therefore, even if he wanted to resign, feeling that his current position was a burden, he needed to inform those uncles and gain their understanding. That was what he ought to do.
"It’s okay, everything is up to you to decide, follow your heart, and if you don’t wish to continue in this position, then decisively give it up. You needn’t worry about us. Whatever we did was only to make you better," Yu Zhenzi waved his hand, unconcerned.
Unlike others, the relationship between Yu Zhenzi and Pang Hong, though nominally uncle and nephew, held a kinship that was reminiscent of both teacher-student and father-son.
