Chapter 0966: Immense Horror
After consuming the Spirit Severing Powder, he was still too weak. Even with the strong desire to support him, Wu Yu still lost his consciousness along the journey.
In a state of blur, he vaguely heard heavy footsteps. Wu Yu was jolted awake from the sounds and sat up abruptly. By the bed in the wooden hut, Wu Yu saw Sun Wudao.
White hair, hunched back, a tinge of stubborness amidst his serene expression, and deep eyes. This was the deepest impression Wu Yu had of him. Seeing him once again, it was the same as before.
"Uncle Sun!"
Wu Yu could no longer hold back his emotions. He had even forgotten that they had not met at this point and called out his name directly.
Sun Wudao furrowed his brows and said, "How did you know that my surname is Sun?"
"I...." Wu Yu didn't know how to answer. Regardless of the ups and downs he had been through, seeing him now still made Wu Yu feel like he was back in his youth. He had incomparable respect for Sun Wudao.
Sun Wudao didn't linger on the topic. He left the room and brought in a bowl of medicine for Wu Yu. He said, "Drink it. There are chores to be done in a while."
"Alright." Wu Yu endured the discomfort in his body. In fact, tears were welling up in his eyes as he drank the medicine.
"This is the immortal sect. Since you have come here, you have to remain here for the rest of your life. To survive in this place, you have to know the rules of the immortal sect. Since the upper echelon has arranged for you to be here, you have to work diligently. Do not speak frequently, follow the rules, and don't cause me any trouble."
Sun Wudao said the words that Wu Yu had kept deep in his memory.
In the past, he wanted to make Wu Yu understand that his role was just a servant.
"Alright, I understand. I will definitely do my chores well." Wu Yu nodded sincerely.
At this point, he saw the Ruyi Jingu Bang hanging around Sun Wudao's neck. All of a sudden, he felt a myriad of emotions.
"I have to get it so I can...."
Although he didn't know the current circumstances, his intuition was telling him that if he lost the Ruyi Jingu Bang, he would be in deep trouble.
"Seeing that you look pretty honest, you can call me ‘Uncle Sun’ in the future. What's your name?"
"Wu Yu."
Although it was a little different from before, it was still similar to how they first met. Sun Wudao was still stern and strict as he went through the complicated yet important matters of the immortal sect to Wu Yu.
This place was the Heavenly Sword Sect.
In his memory, he hadn't been here in a long time.
Sun Wudao was introducing and emphasizing. However, Wu Yu wasn't paying attention. His gaze was affixed on Sun Wudao. For him, the current Sun Wudao was the most important person in his life.
Along the way, he also saw Su Yanli, who Sun Wudao reminded him not to take a further look at.
Other than him, everything was as usual.
When they were in the Immortal Beast Garden, they encountered Zhao Chuan and the rest again. Although they were still mocking him, Wu Yu wasn't paying attention to them.
After experiencing the initial shock, his mental state had calmed down a little. He knew Situ Jin would be next and everything would happen as before. Tonight, he would get the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
"As long as I get the Ruyi Jingu Bang, I can start anew. Regardless of how things go and if I do really get a chance to relive my life, I have to secure the capital for the future. Otherwise, it will be troublesome in the future."
What puzzled him the most was that he didn't know what he was experiencing now.
His gaze would still land on the Ruyi Jingu Bang on Sun Wudao from time to time. He didn't know why he was so anxious at this moment.
"It's better to pretend to not know anything and I'll still get the Ruyi Jingu Bang. Now that I know, I can't help but be nervous."
The closer he was to Situ Jin, the more anxious he felt.
Finally, when the group arrived, Wu Yu could only recall Situ Jin's name. As for the rest, he had long forgotten.
In the past, he was fearful of this group of people. However, they were just ants in his eyes now. The only crucial thing was that their arrival played a part in him getting the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
Amid the fearful and respectful eyes of the servants, Situ Jin went to Su Yanli to seek guidance in cultivation. Wu Yu was chatting with Sun Wudao while working. This was a long lost sense of kinship. Just like the previous time, they lied on the gravel path after finishing their work.
Wu Yu illustrated his experiences to Uncle Sun as before. Sun Wudao also started to take pity on him.
"Child, forget everything that happened before. Now that you are in the Bipo Mountain Range, put away your hatred from the past and focus on the work. Perhaps you might receive pity from the immortals. At that time, they might bestow you some immortal essences that could purge the poison of the Spirit Severing Powder. You will have a chance for cultivation then. Perhaps you might still have a future - you may even become a leader for the servants in the future," said Sun Wudao.
Although he looked a little stern, he sincerely cared for Wu Yu and was thinking about Wu Yu's future. However, he was no different from an ordinary and kind old man. Wu Yu couldn't tell how he was related to the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal.
Truthfully, Wu Yu really wanted to ask if he was connected to the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal.
Obviously, he couldn't do so, especially before he obtained the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
He would look at the mountains from time to time as he got more anxious. When Situ Jin and the rest came down, there would be a clash. That would be the best opportunity for him to get the Ruyi Jingu Bang.
The closer it got to that moment, the more nervous Wu Yu was. He knew he wasn't nervous at this point in the past. The feeling of knowing what would happen in the future was truly mysterious. However, experiencing it again and feeling that everything would happen the same way in some manner was still really frightening.
