Why did the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree end up giving Wei Yang thirty-nine Bodhisattva Seeds in the end? It was because the Bodhisattva Heart went to Xiao Yan.

So, in the end, the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree simply waved its hand generously and tossed thirty-nine Bodhisattva Seeds to Wei Yang!

Consider it a parting gift, so no one would feel it was favoring one over the other. Which is more precious, thirty-nine Bodhisattva Seeds or a single Bodhisattva Heart? That’s hard to say. It depends on how you look at it.

The Bodhisattva Heart can only be used by one person, but it guarantees that person’s ascension to Dou Sheng. The thirty-nine Bodhisattva Seeds in Wei Yang’s hands, however, represented thirty-nine Bodhisattva Pills.

But each Bodhisattva Pill only provides a chance at becoming a Dou Sheng. Plus the four he casually pocketed while doing hard labor earlier, the peak amount he held was forty-three Bodhisattva Seeds.

After giving away ten of them, he still had thirty-three left. Oh, and if you count that imperfect Bodhisattva Seed in Xiao Yan’s hand, that made a total of thirty-four Bodhisattva Seeds.

With that many, no matter which major faction they were placed in, they would be enough to serve as the foundation for that power to endure for a thousand, even ten thousand years.

”Brother Bodhisattva Ancient Tree, thank you. I hope we’ll have the chance to meet again next time.”

Wei Yang and Xiao Yan watched the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree sink deeper into the earth, murmuring softly.

In their hearts, they felt a faint trace of pity for it.

The Bodhisattva Ancient Tree lacked a truly complete consciousness. Heaven was being a bit unfair to it. Otherwise, it would definitely have become one of the absolute peak existences on the Dou Qi Continent.

Then again, its lifespan was essentially infinite, comparable to the heavens. If it also possessed full intelligence on top of that, then that would be far too outrageous. At that point, calling it the most heaven-defying existence wouldn’t be an exaggeration.

Clearly, the world would not allow such a bug-like being to exist. Everything in life has its destined balance.

Boom~

Under countless gazes, the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree finally sank slowly into the earth. With the last trace of emerald light disappearing, the grassland once again became empty.

Seeing the tree vanish completely, everyone let out a gentle sigh. Then, the atmosphere grew a little subtle. Everyone exchanged looks, many eyes faintly filled with caution.

After a moment, someone finally spoke up. He cupped his hands toward Wei Yang and said, ”Mr. Wei, since everything is settled, we will take our leave first.”

”Safe travels,” Wei Yang nodded.

That person immediately led his group away swiftly. Then, one team after another cupped their hands, took their leave, and departed.

With the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree gone, the beast tide no longer showed signs of continuing to gather. Instead, it began to slowly disperse. So no one needed to join forces anymore when heading out.

Given the strength of those who remained, as long as they were careful, getting out of the Ancient Wasteland Region shouldn’t be too difficult. At least, not unless something unexpected happened on the road.

No one dared to be careless. Until they were out of the Ancient Wasteland Region, they would need to stay extremely cautious. Otherwise, if some cunning bastards seized the chance, the Bodhisattva Seeds in their hands might end up belonging to someone else.

Thus, the departing teams intentionally kept a large distance from one another. Although they headed in roughly the same direction, the paths they took were different. Soon, only Wei Yang’s group, the Gu Clan, and the Flower Sect remained.

Gu Qingyang cupped his hands and smiled. ”Mr. Wei, Brother Xiao, everyone. Now that the matter of the Bodhisattva Ancient Tree is settled, we should head back to the Gu Realm.”

As he spoke, he glanced at Gu Xun’er, smiling, ”This time, the elders already went through quite some trouble just to let Xun’er come out. If we delay too long, they’ll definitely start sending reminders one after another.”

Hearing this, a trace of reluctance flashed in Gu Xun’er’s beautiful eyes.

But she understood well that unless she reached Dou Sheng, the old fellows in the clan would never feel at ease letting her wander the outside world freely. Things were different now.

The Hun Clan’s movements had been strange recently, as if they were about to make a move, causing tension among all the clans.

As the eldest daughter of the Gu Clan, and a possessor of divine-grade bloodline—known as the most perfect bloodline of her generation—Gu Xun’er’s safety was something the entire Gu Clan valued immensely.

She would never be allowed to roam wherever she pleased. She turned her gaze to Xiao Yan and said softly, ”Brother Xiao Yan, you must be extra careful. The Hun Clan never lets grudges go.

This time, you all made them suffer such a huge loss, there’s no way they’ll swallow that anger. And with you holding so many Bodhisattva Seeds, they’ll definitely take it seriously... maybe even covet them.”

”I’m guessing once they free up even a bit of manpower, they definitely won’t just sit still. There’s a high chance they’ll move against Falling Star Pavilion.”

”Xun’er is right. The Hun Clan is strange and unpredictable, very hard to deal with. Even our Gu Clan usually doesn’t dare push them too far.”

Gu Qingyang nodded in agreement.

”Although we Ancient Clans are constantly watching them, and they usually don’t dare act too outrageously, if they really set their minds on retaliating against your Falling Star Pavilion, pulling out a bit of strength to do so is something they can definitely manage.”

”Mm.” Xiao Yan nodded slightly.

He understood as well.

Although with him and Wei Yang rising rapidly, Falling Star Pavilion’s strength was no longer weak, they were still far from being able to compare to a superpower like the Hun Clan.

The Hun Clan’s accumulation over tens of thousands of years wasn’t something he, his teacher, and Wei Yang could make up for with their current strength.

If the Hun Clan really decided to allocate forces specifically to destroy Falling Star Pavilion, it would indeed be a big headache.

”Looks like once I get back, I’ll have to go into seclusion immediately and refine the Bodhisattva Heart. I need to advance to Dou Sheng as soon as possible.

Otherwise, if the Hall of Souls attacks, the pressure on Master and Brother Wei will be enormous,” Xiao Yan thought to himself, fists tightening inside his sleeves.

”Hehe, but don’t worry too much. Our Gu Clan has always kept a close eye on the Hun Clan. If they make any major move, we’ll definitely get the news.”

Gu Qingyang smiled, ”Besides, with Falling Star Pavilion’s current strength, if they want to completely wipe you out, they’ll need to send at least three Dou Sheng experts. The Hun Clan hasn’t mobilized that kind of lineup in many years, so you don’t have to be overly anxious.”

As he spoke, his gaze quietly swept toward Wei Yang standing not far away.

Although Gu Qingyang couldn’t be entirely certain, he had a rough guess. Wei Yang had most likely taken that crucial step already.

With Yao Sheng and Wei Yang—two Dou Sheng experts—and Xiao Yan, a newly advanced Ban Sheng, Falling Star Pavilion’s overall strength was already quite formidable. It wasn’t something the Hun Clan could just casually crush whenever they wished.

After all, if even one of the three managed to survive their attack, if they failed to kill them cleanly in one go, the Hun Clan and Hall of Souls probably wouldn’t be able to sleep peacefully afterward.

So the Hun Clan either makes no move at all, or if they do, they must guarantee a thunderous, flawless strike. Which meant sending only two or three low-level Dou Shengs wouldn’t be enough. So even if the Hun Clan wanted revenge, it wouldn’t be that easy to carry out.

”If that day truly comes, our Gu Clan won’t stand by and do nothing,” Gu Qingyang said in conclusion.
