The old servant forcefully opened his eyes, which seemed to have long lost their ability to see, and looked in Chu Mo's direction. Then, his elegant, calm, but incomparably aged face instantly showed excitement. "Young Master! Young Master! It's really you, it's really you. You've returned, you've finally returned. "
The old servant trembled as he walked towards Chu Mo. Then, he slowly knelt on the ground and respectfully kowtowed once. Only then did he cover his face with his shriveled, eagle-like hands and started to cry silently. In the end, he finally could not hold it in any longer and burst into tears.
Chu Mo patted the old yellow dog's head, then stood up and walked in front of the old servant. He helped the old servant up and gave him a hug.
"Yes, Uncle, I've returned!"
After saying this, Chu Mo's tears also flowed down.
At this moment, the memories of his previous life were finally completely awakened.
In the past, he, the "unparalleled Young Master Chu", used to address this old servant in this way.
The old servant tightly hugged Chu Mo. He had once hugged his young master, taught his young master, and accompanied him to listen to scriptures. Even when his young master went to deceive a little girl, he had once given him advice …
He was his young master's uncle, an old servant of the Chu royal clan!
The royal family had collapsed. Everyone had died. Only he and the dog, Big Yellow, miraculously survived. They did not survive because of luck. In reality, there were no lucky ones in the Chu royal clan a million years ago!
All living beings were annihilated in a single night!
He was able to survive because he and Big Yellow were not in the Chu royal clan at that time. Instead, they were sent by their young master to a very distant place to search for a rare ore.
They escaped that calamity!
When they heard the news, it was already a long time later. At that time, the unparalleled Young Master Chu had already disappeared. The Chu royal clan was also annihilated. Only after many years did the old servant dare to bring Big Yellow back here.
After returning and seeing the ruins of the Chu royal clan, the man and the dog cried loudly. Then, they decided to stay here and never left again.
Because they believed that one day, the Young Master would return! He would definitely come back here to find them!
This was not blind superstition, but he knew the young master's secret. He knew that the young master would definitely come back!
But who would have thought that this wait would last for a million years!
Da Huang had also turned from a strong dog into what he was today. He had no fur, no teeth, and almost no strength. On the other hand, he had changed from the elegant and graceful old man of the past to his current appearance. He was on the verge of death, struggling at death's door.
But he had finally waited for it! Goldy had also waited for the right moment! They had waited for the return of their young master!
With a casual wave of Chu Mo's hand, Qi Xiaoyu, Shui Yiyi, the giant blue eagle, and the hundred or so inhuman beings appeared on the land.
Even though they were already aware of their existence, Zi Dao, Ouyang Fei, Monkey, and the others were still shocked.
Although Qi Xiaoyu and Shui Yiyi had been in the Firmament Mirror all this time, they knew everything that was going on in the outside world. Because Chu Mo had always kept a window open for them.
Therefore, when they came out, Qi Xiaoyu and Shui Yiyi's cheeks were full of tears.
They were so touched that they couldn't speak. Even when they saw the familiar monkey and the six Sages, and even when they saw Zi Dao and Ouyang Fei, whom they had been curious about for a long time, they didn't greet them immediately. Instead, their eyes were red and their tears flowed.
This was the fundamental reason why Chu Mo had given up on the Elite Alliance and the cooperation with Esteemed Ling Tong to return here!
Because ever since the Dao Crusher had gathered enough power to open that small world, a voice had sounded in Chu Mo's heart.
Only two words — Return home!
Moreover, Chu Mo had a strong intuition that as long as he returned to the Chu royal ruins, he would receive the ancestors' blessing no matter what he did.
This sounded a little unreal. After all, the Chu royal family had been extinct for a million years. But what cultivators trusted the most … was this intuition! If they couldn't even understand this predestined voice, then they wouldn't even have the right to step into the cultivation world.
The hairless and toothless old dog Big Yellow stayed by Chu Mo's side, refusing to leave even a step. It completely ignored everyone else. Qi Xiaoyu and Shui Yiyi were the only ones who seemed a little puzzled. It circled around them twice, weakly wagging its tail, then returned to Chu Mo's side.
It wasn't clear if it had recognized the two from their previous lives, or if it had acknowledged them as mistresses in this life.
The old servant glanced at Qi Xiaoyu and Shui Yiyi a few more times, but didn't say anything. He settled everyone down.
Even though he was alone and even though he was so old, he was still methodical and calm when he made the arrangements. Moreover, his elegant demeanor caused others to involuntarily feel a sense of admiration.
The royal ruins were too vast, and this was the central area. Almost all of the buildings were protected by powerful formations. Although they'd been broken in the past, the power of the formations still remained. Therefore, there were still many palaces that people could live in.
Finally, after the old servant had made arrangements for everyone, he called Chu Mo to a dilapidated palace alone.
Big Yellow lay at Chu Mo's feet, while the old servant sat across from Chu Mo.
At first, he wouldn't sit down no matter what. He said that there was no reason for a servant to sit on the same level as a young master. In the end, it was Chu Mo who glared at him and said that the royal Chu clan was gone and that his young master was a reincarnated soul. If you won't sit, then I'll stand. Only then did the old servant reluctantly sit down, but his buttocks only touched the side.
Although the palace was in ruins, the lights on the walls were still lit. Although they weren't as bright as before, and the entire hall was a little dim, it wasn't eerie.
Sitting there, Chu Mo felt an inexplicable sense of peace.
It was a feeling he'd never felt in all his years.
The old servant straightened his back. Looking at Chu Mo, he slowly said, "In the past million years, too many ancient clansmen have come here to explore. However … none of them succeeded. There's a mysterious power in the royal ruins. Every time those people enter, regardless of their cultivation, even if they're Prime realm beings, they'll be quickly infected by that power. Then … their cultivation will start to drop. "
"There's such a thing?" Chu Mo was a little surprised. At the same time, he was curious as to why he and those people were fine.
"Young master is the son of the royal clan's first wife, the true eldest son! The ancestors naturally recognized young master's soul. Those around young master are protected by young master, so of course they're fine. The others aren't so lucky. " A mocking smile appeared on the old servant's face. "They all think that the royal Chu clan has already perished and no longer exists in the world. But how can they understand the truth of reincarnation? Heaven has reincarnation, and karma must be formed. The karma of the royal Chu clan has been settled. But those people … destroyed the royal Chu clan. This karma is still there. "
As the old servant spoke, he took out a thick notebook and handed it to Chu Mo. "This is all the karma I've written over the countless years. Young master, you can read it and understand many things you don't understand. "
Big Yellow lay there quietly, his head at Chu Mo's feet. His eyes were slightly closed, and he didn't make a sound. He seemed to enjoy the feeling of being by his master's side.
Chu Mo received the notebook, but he didn't flip through it immediately. Instead, he looked at the old servant. "Uncle, you and Big Yellow … don't seem to be in a good state. I still have many spiritual medicines here."
The old servant smiled and waved his hand. "It's fine. Big Yellow and I have been struggling at death's door for countless years. Even without any great medicine, we won't die for a while. We still have to see young master rise again, we still have to see the Chu clan reappear in the world, and we still have to see our enemies fall one by one. Even if we don't see this, we can't bear to die. "
Big Yellow opened his eyes and blinked his old eyes. Then, he raised his head slightly and barked at Chu Mo, expressing his agreement.
Chu Mo smiled. He took out a large pile of supreme quality medicines and said, "Take them first. You're all my family. I don't want to see you like this. I feel terrible."
The old servant didn't reveal much surprise or excitement when he saw these medicines. As an old servant of the royal clan, he had seen far too many better cultivation materials. But, he was still very happy and accepted these things.
Big Yellow's nose twitched, then he grinned at Chu Mo. He took away a great medicine with his mouth, his tail quickly wagging.
"It hasn't been so happy for too many years." The old servant looked at Big Yellow's back and said with some emotion, "Me too. Actually, we can find these medicines, and we have the ability to obtain them. But if we can't see young master, there's no meaning in doing these things. "
Chu Mo nodded strongly. "I'm back now! From now on, you won't be alone. "
…
Chu Chu was in low spirits during this period of time.
She even seemed a little absent-minded during a few of the alliance's meetings.
She was very clear about the reason for her low spirits. She missed her brother, and also missed home.
In the instant that Chu Mo's memories awakened, her memories … also awakened. Countless strange but incomparably familiar scenes appeared in her mind.
Those scenes were very fragmented, like illusory light and shadow. But the impact on her was considerable.
She immediately understood. Her brother must have returned home!
She was also very homesick.
Unprecedented homesick!
Especially after her memories awakened, that longing for home made it very difficult for her to calm down.
Only now did she truly understand why her brother insisted on leaving.
She sat alone in the room, a faint smile on her face. "Brother, even though we are brother and sister, you might not know what I'm thinking. In my previous life, you were my brother. I grew up under your protection. In this life, you're so much younger than me, but you still want to be my brother. Yes, you're my brother. You'll always be! But in this life, Little Sister doesn't want to be a nobody anymore. Little Sister wants to hold up the sky and help you! Help ourselves … find back everything that we've lost. Yes, I can definitely do it! Because in this life, my ambition is based on the promise I made in my previous life. "
