Chapter 500 Lamentation & Hoped
Quo Qifan and the other men would also be killed once they reached their limit, sacrificing and giving up every last drop of blood so that the Sect Master could benefit.
Once they discarded those techniques and Fu Yishuang handed them the true techniques in the form of an apology, Chen Zeiwei\'s cultivation soared along with that of her martial brothers and sisters, reaching the Golden Core Stage and becoming Immortal Masters in no time, especially Chen Zeiwei, who had become an Immortal Grandmaster thanks to her aptitude.
But, although they had advanced and greatly increased their strength, this was not enough to defend themselves from the attacks of the other sects.
Fu Yishuang also told them a little about true immortal cultivation and that, if they really wanted to become true immortals, they would have to ascend to heaven and go through the heavenly tribulations.
Chen Zeiwei sighed and thought about that young man who had taken her half-sister even though her father denied of her. On the one hand, she was relieved to know that that half-sister could have someone who really loved her, therefore, she only hoped that she would be well and not be mistreated because of her appearance. Chen Zeiwei knew that that young man could not die easily despite having faced the Sect Master and never coming back; something in her told her that that young man was very powerful and she could probably see him again.
"Hmph! I already knew about it, but that guy went ahead and ruined my plans to face off against the Sect Master and take away the control of us." But Quo Qifan quickly added having heard what Chen Zeiwei said, wanting what that young man did to be a bad thing and not to see him as their savior.
Some nodded while others doubted, but still, Chen Zeiwei shook her head ignoring what this older martial brother of hers said; she knew Quo Qifan\'s personality and really didn\'t expect much from him, even she thought that the other young man was really a true young, mature and exceptional man compared to Quo Qifan who would complain about anything no matter how small or even try to show off in what he did.
"Take whatever weapons you can and wait for our orders!"
Almost at once, a loud voice was heard as a group of people appeared and took up positions at once. In front of them was an older man in his 40s leading them, with a fierce and more experienced look, but with a missing hand.
Chen Qiande gave a few more instructions before separating and reaching Chen Zeiwei and saying, "These are all the reinforcements we have left, I\'ve only left a few warriors at our residence in case we have to escape and return, but I hope it won\'t come to that." A somewhat tired voice came from him.
"Thank you, father." Chen Zeiwei nodded after several seconds and thanked, looking somewhat sadly at her father\'s arm that was missing a hand, feeling pitiful.
"Don\'t worry, my daughter. This was the price for denying my own blood and flesh, so I\'m gladly willing to accept it." Chen Qiande noticed his daughter\'s look and smiled softly, this time, speaking sincerely as he recalled what had happened lately.
After going through several battles of life and death, and having experienced a little more of what suffering is and witnessed the sparkle of life, Chen Qiande had understood that this daughter he had disowned was only an innocent little girl who did not deserve everything he had done to her despite the horrible appearance she had. Therefore, he had been in lamentation and hoped that she was fine, remembering his late wife and asking her forgiveness for the atrocities he had committed towards their daughter.
Chen Qiande hoped that, even if he died on this day, his two daughters would be all right...
Chen Zeiwei looked at her father\'s honest expression for a few more seconds and smiled softly; she also knew that her father was sorry and only wanted her and her half-sister to be fine and survive the tragedies. Chen Zeiwei wanted her father\'s conscience to be able to find peace and tranquility.
"Sister, Master is coming and we have to be prepared for what is coming." He Qianye told Chen Zeiwei that Fu Yishuang was coming soon.
"I know..." Chen Zeiwei nodded, looking at each and everyone in the place, who were looking at her and paying full attention.
After everything that had happened, as well as demonstrating the ability and becoming a strong person, Chen Zeiwei became the leader of this team by unspoken decision by everyone. Everyone present recognized her and waited for her orders.
Chen Zeiwei looked at everyone around her and pondered for a long while. No one dared to say anything and they just waited for her to speak.
"Martial brothers and sisters..."
Chen Zeiwei spoke after a while and continued.
"We have been defending ourselves for a long time from the various forces of the world, but I think we all know that this day will be the final decision... whether we will manage to survive or not.
You are aware that fate caused the tragedy in our respected Sect, but that also took the blindfold off our eyes to see the great evil we had at our own side, at any moment being able to take our lives. Because of that, even though we lost the protection and great forces that guarded us in the past, now we got one more chance to survive and fight personally for our lives without heaven has it written.
Although we have only been defending ourselves and cannot live in peace, I thank you from the bottom of my heart that you have endured to the end, being here with us...
If you want to leave and escape, you can do so, we will not hold it against you for wanting to survive. If you decide to stay, I must tell you that we will all move forward, live and die together, as the martial siblings we once were..."
Chen Zeiwei bowed slightly, thanking everyone present. Although the former Thousand Swords Sect Master was a hidden evil, they still could not leave the sect they were raised in. If they escaped and sought asylums in other sects, those sects would immediately know their identities and might even kill them. After all, the Thousand Swords Sect was a great powerful sect that even oppressed the other weak sects.
Chen Zeiwei and her father could not retreat either, since their home would also fall into the hands of the other sects and they would have no escape...
Silence ruled for a while until one perked up and stood up, "I am with you all and will fight to the end!" His firm and strong voice echoed in the room.
"I will stay here too!"
Then, another voice was heard when a woman similarly stood up and said.
"And me!"
"This is my home and I will defend it, even if I die!"
"I don\'t mind dying for my family!"
"We are all together!"
"I will never abandon you, Sect Master!"
"Yes! We are all together, Sect Master!"
"Come on, Sect Master!"
"Sect Master!"
The shouts of support and resolve were quickly heard, surprising Chen Zeiwei at the end when they addressed her as Sect Master.
If it wasn\'t for Chen Zeiwei, they were absolutely certain that everyone would have died from the start!
Chen Zeiwei blinked in surprise for a few seconds before she nodded firmly and said, "We will fight to the end!" Her gaze was full of resolve.
Chen Qiande smiled in satisfaction and wished the welfare of his daughter. He also thought of that other daughter of his and wished her to be fine, even if he died, he wanted both Chen Zeiwei and Qing Sha to manage to survive and lead a peaceful life.
"Where do you think you\'re going, old man!"
Then, a loud mocking voice was heard at once, interrupting the shouts of encouragement and resolve. A tremor soon began, alerting everyone as they felt several powerful pressures covering the place.
In the distance, an adult with his clothes torn, dried blood all over his body, spitting blood and breathing agitatedly, flew towards the place while dodging several attacks in mid-air.
