Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity
Chapter 1015 - Chapter 1015 Chapter 635 Footprint Brother Just Follow Me

Chapter 1015: Chapter 635: Footprint Brother? Just Follow Me Chapter 1015: Chapter 635: Footprint Brother? Just Follow Me To tell the truth, the woman had already forgotten how many years it had been since she last felt such emotions.

The faint sorrow of departure was like honey laced with coptis, sweet on the outermost layer, but bitter as gall inside.

She particularly remembered the last time she felt this way was when she bid farewell to that child, Shi Hao.

Today, however, she could not avoid it.

“I once peeped into the future and saw that you and I will meet again, and that you, fellow Daoist, will successfully break through to King’s Domain and reach Perfection.”

Jiang Hui’s bright eyes blinked, his heroic brows lifting.

He naturally did not harbor such complex emotions of parting.

But seeing the real Willow God like this, expressing such strange sentiments… he could only respond with a few agreeing words.

Especially since it was not a lie.

After all, even under normal circumstances, the woman would still turn danger into safety and successfully advance to Quasi-Immortal Emperor.

And he, as long as he could endure, had nothing to fear, even the passage of ages.

Their future meeting was an absolute certainty.

“I’ll take your auspicious words.”

The Willow God smiled lightly, unconvinced, thinking Jiang Hui was only trying to comfort her.

However, during the brief time they spoke, she had readjusted her mindset, her voice returning to its usual indifference and calm.

She did not completely push others away, but the intimacy and lingering complaints from just before had also dissipated.

The woman sighed softly, a firmness appearing in her eyes as they opened and closed.

Ultimately, love and hate are just mounds in a hero’s tomb.

Throughout the ages, the seven emotions and six desires are what one must least be contaminated by.

At the very least, she could not.

As the Willow God and the former Ancestor of the Sacrificial Spirits, she protected the people and shouldered many burdens, unwilling to be entangled in romantic affairs, let alone what seemed to be unrequited love from her side.

Despite her confusion.

Why would this person prefer a mere incarnation of hers over her true self?

But in these turbulent times, none of that was important anymore.

“Oh, there’s something I forgot to ask you!”

The Willow God suddenly recalled something and called out to Jiang Hui, who had just stepped forward, prompting him to turn around once more.

“Sorry, it just came to my mind.”

The Willow God apologized, somewhat embarrassed. As she spoke, she gently swept a strand of blue hair away from her forehead and back behind her ear with her slender, jade-like fingers, revealing her clear ear and a neck as smooth as white jade.

“But please speak, fellow Daoist.”

Jiang Hui nodded slightly, indicating that the woman should feel free to ask her question.

He had plenty of time, and chatting about other matters was of no consequence to him.

“How has that child, Shi Hao, been doing lately?”

The Willow God asked quietly. If there were people or things in this world that she still cared for, Shi Hao was undoubtedly at the forefront.

Like her, that child had come back to life from a hopeless situation, but what was more important was his sincere and pure heart.

“If I remember correctly, fellow Daoist, you are proficient in Divine Skills such as Peeping into the Future and Karma. Surely you have used them before and would be able to see Shi Hao’s current state…”

Jiang Hui did not immediately reply, but looked somewhat puzzled.

The Willow God’s law, which she created herself, not only possessed extraordinary abilities in reversing life and death, but also in peeping into karma–comparable to the Sage’s deduction methods from ancient times.

It was precisely because she could see into the future that she left her body behind for Emperor Huang Tian.

“Whether past, present, or future… one can never inspect too thoroughly, even after becoming an Emperor, it remains the same. Between heaven and earth, there are invisible rules that bind everything. To violate them would mean even an Emperor would suffer unimaginable heavy injuries in an instant!”

The Willow God explained with a bitter smile.

Indeed, she could glimpse the future, but it was full of uncertainties, and at best, she could only see a piece, not the entire picture.

“So that’s how it is.”

Jiang Hui nodded gently.

He had not studied the Willow God’s method in depth and was unaware of its many restrictions. However, it made sense. It wasn’t just the Willow God; even the Three Black-Robed Emperors and the Phantom Primordial Ancestor could not deduce everything. There would always be errors. Otherwise, the events that followed would not occur.

“Shi Hao has attained Red Dust Immortal and is currently challenging King’s Domain. He should succeed soon and officially break into King’s Domain.”

After organizing his thoughts a bit, Jiang Hui spoke slowly.

“So soon?”

Even though she had expected the young man’s achievements to be extraordinary, she was still shocked by such a rapid progression.

How many years had it been?

The youth who had emerged from the Wilderness had already grown to a point beyond the wildest dreams of the Ten Thousand Clans, no longer needing her protection.

“Do you still remember Ao Sheng, Primordial, Primitive, and the others?” Jiang Hui’s fingers grazed his sleeve, fluttering elegantly.

“Of course, I remember. When I made a scene in the Alien Territory, I was ultimately attacked by the kings of that place. I returned, exhausted, to the Immortal Domain, only to be ambushed by those three, severely wounded, and then fell into the mortal realm through the Heavenly Tribulation.”

Although she was talking about her own experiences, the Willow God’s face showed no change, remaining as serene as ever.

Everything has a cause and an effect.

There’s no cause without reason.

And no effect without a cause.

Cause and effect complement each other.

If she hadn’t fallen into the mortal realm, she wouldn’t have met Shi Hao or the man in front of her.

However, if she could leave this place, she still hoped to suppress Ao Sheng and the others.

It wasn’t because of personal grievances.

It was because, although Ao Sheng and his comrades were powerful, they were extremely narrow-minded in their hearts. They not only viciously suppressed those who were different but also seemed to have colluded with the Alien Territory. If left unchecked, they would eventually become a menace.
