Standing at the top of his peers, having surpassed many hurdles and extreme battles, Wu Ryu was having a dilemma,
He was at the last step from merging the daos that he has mastered, but he had many regrets and heart demons from the first years of his life.
He had thought that after thousands of years living, it would have gone but its still there, these problems to him now seems too insignificant to resolve but at that time he was powerless to do so.
- its seem my only solution is to go back and fix everything from the start… said Ryu
He had been contemplating on the solution for at least a thousand year by now for him time was meaningless.
-but taking my own life is a bit boring honestly wouldn't it be more entertaining to make it seem like some kind of scheme from my disciples to steal my secret arts…
-as he was mumbling his thoughts one of his disciples heard what he was saying and shouted
- master how can you say that!, all of us are ready to sacrifice our lifes for your sake!
-how noble of you, almost brought tears to my eyes,but what can I say there is no other way -he said playfully
-well if you have left some enemies they would have been useful for this situation
- didn't I teach you to pull the roots of problems when dealing with enemies,
why do you think I have been living peacefully these days
- my apologies master…
- call your senior brothers and sisters,I have made up my mind I will be dead by the end of this day!!
As the youngest disciple ran with all his might while screaming his lungs to alarm his seniors about their master crazy plan a huge commotion erupted in the palace.
After a few moments in the main courtyard his disciples voices were echoing as they pleaded for their master to drop his crazy idea, he was in the void realm which is the highest realm known to mankind, but was so fixated on the idea of a higher realm that he must achieve
Ryu's 13 disciples whom he had picked up from diffrent situations each one of them had their fair share of life experiences,
Nearly all of them had their cultivation vary between the supreme and emperor realm except the youngest who was only in the king realm.
With a loud gust of wind all the disciples tensed up and remained quiet and looked at their master…
- Its useless arguing with me once I had made up my mind, today will be the anniversary of my death.
I have taught each one of you the most suitable cultivation technique that suits him, I have nothing else to offer to you…Wu Ryu said
- all the discples glanced at each other without any words to say.
They felt abandoned and discarded what are they going to do if their master continued with his plan!..
Until the third discple broke the silence and asked
-what will happen to us are we included in your reincarnation plan or do you intend to forsake us?
She was the most calm and collected out of the disciples but at this moment for the first time they saw her with a sad and worried face.
As she finished her words all of them glanced with worry most of them wouldn't be alive to argue now if it weren't for their master saving them..
-Ryu then just laughed and glanced to his left
-didn't I tell you none of them would do it, now that I won the bet you won't be coming with me
As the discples looked toward where their master glanced they saw his weapon shaking
-fine I won't be coming with you even if you die for real I won't care… the weapon spirit said
As if wanting an explanation the disciples looked at their master with hope.
- ok ok, dont worry,I will repeat all of my actions that I have done in the past my only reason is to erase the small mistakes that I regret not doing as for what will happen to you after my death fret not, I plan on regressing with my own soul my body would be in a frozen state between life and death once Iam powerful enough I will just break the barrier of the timeline that I will be in
- as the disciples heard his words most of them sighed in relief, so theoretically their master would only be absent and won't die?!
As they glanced at each other their eyes lightened up and as if their thoughts connected all of them thought of the same thing
- does that mean we wouldn't have to endure the hellish training until our master returns?!!
Before they were worried about losing their master but now that he won't technically die the worries shifted to another thing…
As if he understood his disciples thoughts he glanced at each one of them and said
-by the time I return if I see you haven't progressed in your cultivation I will be sure to make you wish that I was dead…
So who is the that will have the honor of killing me
- as if he was their mortal enemy every one of them raised their hands in excitement except for the third and youngest disciple.
- well that was a sight to behold what did I do to you to deserve this hatred…
The disciples then laughed from embarrassment and tried to avoid his gaze.
Ryu then picked the eldest disciple
and started lecturing him on what to do in the process as it required the most understanding of qi channels and cultivation knowledge.
From the start he planned on making his eldest disciple do it,
but he just wanted to lighten up the mood of his disciples, he had no idea how long it will take him to accomplish his goals and unravel his inner demons, so he wanted their last memory of him until his return to be a light hearted moment…
