Chapter 903 Doting
"Nurture!" Zhou Ou laughed wildly, as if he had heard something funny. "Ancestor, ancestor, if my Zhou family truly had an ancestor who cared about his descendants, how could I have fallen to such a state today!"
"He is the second-generation patriarch of the Three Immortal Islands, the Jade Jade True Lord of the [Heavenly Pivot Academy], and the supreme ruler who paved the way for all people in this Earthly Immortal Realm, but he is not my Zhou family's ancestor!"
"Yes, it is indeed as you said. I come from an extraordinary background and can obtain any cultivation resources I want with ease, without even paying a price."
"Even if it is someone else's beloved possession, I only need to give it a glance and countless people will rush to snatch it from me."
"When I was young, I also thought that this was the ancestors' favoritism towards their descendants. Just as others in the sect said, although the two ancestors had no descendants, they treated us all as their own children. With these two towering trees, the Zhou family disciples could get whatever they wanted."
"But it wasn't until I exhausted all my resources and could only reach the third level of Core Formation, and when I tried my best but was unable to advance due to flaws in my mind and my Yin Spirit was trapped, that I gradually understood everything."
"The ancestor's favoritism is poisonous!"
“Spoiled and unruly, allowed to do whatever they wanted without any discipline, the Zhou family members were all raised to be morally flawed, scheming and arrogant.”
"If the ancestor had no intention of nurturing his disciples, or didn't know how to teach them, that would be one thing, but he just happened to teach his disciples so well!"
“That lineage of masters and disciples has always been strictly disciplined, cultivating their minds and souls, and refining their bodies without any shortcomings. That’s why Senior Sister Qingdai and Senior Sister Sangsang don’t have such problems with their character.”
"It's laughable that when I was young, I was complacent because I had avoided the search for Qi and obtained suitable Qi from my clan. Little did I know that the balance of Heaven and the consequences of karma meant that everything I enjoyed in my youth had already been secretly priced."
"Do you dare say that our ancestor is close to us, but distant to our senior sisters?!"
"At that time, I wondered why our ancestor would kill us when we all have the blood of the Zhou family in our veins. It wasn't until I saw what our ancestor did in the Zhide era that I understood. He regarded his own descendants as a cancer to the aristocratic families, as their enemies!"
"Yes!"
"That's right. The Zhou family has indeed committed many evil deeds. Most of its disciples are outwardly impressive but inwardly rotten, and there are even some hypocrites among them."
"But can all of this really be blamed on us?"
"If you view me with malice, how can you expect good results!"
"Ancestor, this is turning cause into effect! Do you really hate your descendants that much?!"
Zhou Ou's voice grew increasingly impassioned, each word dripping with emotion, as if he were venting all the grievances he had held for years.
Even Luo Zhi and others who heard about it were moved and felt a sense of shared sorrow.
"Why don't you just go?" At that moment, Ao Li's slightly cold voice suddenly interrupted Zhou Ou's heartfelt outpouring.
It was as if a horizontal cut had severed the previous passionate emotions.
Facing the questioning looks from the crowd, Ao Li impatiently explained, "Why didn't you insist on leaving the mountain back then?"
"The sect's ironclad rule is that all disciples of the Three Immortal Islands must undergo the process of seeking the vital energy and seeking the evil spirits; they cannot simply sit back and enjoy the fruits of their labor."
"Did someone force you to accept the clan's malevolent energy in order to take advantage of the situation?"
"I..." Zhou Ou opened his mouth, but was speechless.
"Why didn't you refuse those sycophantic, greedy people back then, and not take what others wanted?"
"I……"
"Okay, even if you were young at the time and too easily influenced by your environment and others."
"And when you were in charge of the family, and faced the younger generation..." "Did you ever discipline them?"
"And have you been taught?"
"And did you ever advise them not to go astray?"
"What talk of bewitching people and reversing cause and effect? If you already have a distinction between good and evil, right and wrong, why don't you change course and pull back from the brink?"
"All that you've said is just an excuse for yourself!"
"True Lord Yujue has given you so many chances, yet you remain unchanged, instead choosing to degenerate and becoming increasingly outrageous. Now you even want to blame the Master and the sect for not properly guiding you?"
"Opportunity...?"
"Otherwise, do you really think that the various evil deeds committed by the Zhou family can be concealed from the true immortals who can calculate the entire world?"
“The Jade Jade True Lord has been waiting for you to come to your senses and turn back to the right path, but you have consistently disappointed him.”
“The world is like this, what can we do… what can we do…” Upon hearing Ao Li’s words, Zhou Ou’s expression froze, his body swayed, and he almost fell over.
Ao Li looked at him with pity and said, "Born into the Zhou family of the Three Immortal Islands with such a good hand, you've managed to play it so badly. You're incredibly stupid."
"Your collusion with the demonic path is no different from seeking a fox in a hair salon or a fox in a broken pillar. They have all been trapped in the northern border by our sect and cannot leave. Only a fool like you, who thinks too highly of himself, would treat them as treasures."
"Leaving aside everything else, just consider that the Lesser Reincarnation in Huazhou is under the control of our sect. You have betrayed the sect and colluded with the demonic path. Do you intend to go directly to the Nine Nether Reincarnation? I'm afraid that at that time, not only will you not be able to regain 60% of your cultivation, but even your remnant soul will become food for those demons."
"I have cultivated for many years and have some knowledge of humans, dragons, and demons, but someone like you who holds the Tai'a sword and descends to the lowest level is truly rare!"
Ao Li's words were truly incisive, directly revealing Zhou Ou's inner demons.
"I was wrong, I was wrong, I made a mistake at every step." Zhou Ou cried loudly as she recalled the past.
He regretted that he had been bewitched in the past, believing that the evil deeds he and his family disciples had committed would not be discovered.
Even when feeling uncertain, they would comfort themselves with the theory that the fault did not lie with them, and then naturally enjoy those readily available "privileges and benefits".
Each time he had two paths to choose from, he always chose the right one, the path that, like other aristocratic families, led him away from the sect, away from cultivation, and even away from the path of mortals.
"Senior Long Li is amazing!" Luo Zhi, who witnessed the whole thing, had her eyes shining and her fangirl index rose to another level.
Zhou Qingyun smiled and relaxed.
In fact, the two had kept in touch ever since they met at the East Sea Hunyuan Central Hub. After Zhou Qingyun joined the Three Immortal Islands, Ao Li even considered taking her as his disciple.
However, there are still some differences in cultivation between the dragon race and the human race, and Ao Li did not plan to take on a disciple in reality, so the matter did not come to fruition.
However, their relationship remained unbroken, and Zhou Qingyun helped Ao Li complete many of the teaching clips.
Ao Li also played a significant role in enabling Zhou Qingyun to amass such an astronomical amount of armor.
Frankly speaking, Zhou Qingyun's certainty was limited to Master Jiang, whom she had only met a few times.
But she trusted the White Dragon completely!
