Purcell: Lord of the Void

Chapter 636 Farewell to the Past and Heading into the Future

"What a stubborn little guy. He clearly has a harem script, but he insists on going for pure love." The Lord of the Temple said with a bit of regret.

Honestly, with Bai Ye's current strength, status, and achievements, if he wanted to start a harem, no one would object, and everyone would think it was natural. Even Cang Xing was ready to compromise and accept other girls.

It seems impossible for someone like Bai Ye to be exclusive to one person. But Xiao Bai wants to play pure love, so there is nothing we can do about it.

The Lord of the Temple caught a glimpse of Kong Hui Xing Tu peeking outside the house. He sighed and said, "Come in. It's over. That guy didn't even give me a chance to discuss it."

After hearing his teacher's words, Kong Huixingtu remained calm, but there was a hint of loss on his face, which soon returned to normal.

"You seemed to have anticipated this."

"Yes, Bai Ye is a very loyal person. I just want to give it a try, and I don't have much hope of success." Kong Huixingtu said in a low voice.

"So do you still like him now?"

"I like him, but liking him doesn't mean I have to own him. I just like his strong, gentle, and loyal side. If he were to flirt with other women, I wouldn't like him anymore."

The Lord of the Temple was silent for a while, trying to understand the young man's thoughts, but he finally gave up thinking, "I am old and can't keep up with you young people. As long as you can figure it out yourself, it's fine.

Your life is very long. In this world, singers are more exciting than us. The throbbing of youth is just a small scale in the long years. Remember not to trap yourself.

Now, your power has returned in full, and you are no longer limited. For you, your path of cultivation has just begun.

From now on, you will practice diligently with me. I will pass on all I have learned throughout my life to you. By then, your strength and achievements may not be inferior to this kid. My apprentice will not be inferior to anyone else. He will regret it when the time comes."

The Lord of the Temple had seen too many pitiful people trapped by love, living almost their entire lives in obsession. He naturally didn't want Kong Huixingtu to embark on such a path of no return. After all, he had watched this little girl grow up. Although they were master and disciple, their relationship was more than that of father and daughter.

"I will remember the teacher's teachings. There is one thing I don't understand. Why don't you just tell him the truth?" Kong Huixingtu asked in confusion. The Lord of the Temple couldn't possibly not know what was in Bai Ye's body, but he never mentioned it.

"Bringing it up in that atmosphere just now is almost the same as coercion and moral kidnapping. I won't do that. This is my bottom line. Bai Ye is a smart man. He probably guessed it. This is to give both parties some respect. This matter is indeed too cruel for them."

……

After returning from the Heroes' Temple, Bai Ye locked himself in his room, refusing to see anyone, for three days. During those three days, he tossed and turned, constantly weighing the pros and cons. He repeatedly removed the Cosmic Seed from his body and examined it, but he still couldn't make up his mind.

Rationally speaking, using the Seed of Leda to fill the gaps in the Seer Universe itself, merging the two universes into a new, larger universe, is undoubtedly the optimal solution at this point.

Not to mention that the Seer Universe is the only remaining independent universe and has irreplaceable strategic significance. Once it is lost, all living things will no longer have a place to call home and can only be exposed naked under the iron hoof of nothingness and become lambs to be slaughtered.

Even if Bai Ye overcomes numerous difficulties and manages to re-evolve the Seed of Leda into a complete universe, the resources consumed in building a new universe are enormous, and it will take a lot of time and effort to rebuild it.

With this effort and resources invested in the Seer Universe, the effect that can be achieved will definitely be several times or even dozens of times greater than before.

But for the many elves in the White Night and Leda universes, the fusion of universes is extremely cruel. Given the current state of the two universes, this fusion will never be equal.

Rather than fusion, I think it is more like one side annexing the other. The Leda Universe will be absorbed and become part of the Seer Universe, or a new star field, or an independent subsidiary universe.

But no matter what, the concept of the Leda Universe will completely disappear. Although the universe itself has been destroyed, as long as this seed is still there, there will always be a thought.

"One day, chaos disappears and nothingness recedes. Leda will eventually return." All Leda elves hold this idea, and even quite a few of them have been fighting to this day relying on this idea.

Once it is integrated, even this last thought will disappear, and Leida will completely become history. This is extremely cruel to them, and even Bai Ye himself is extremely reluctant.

"I have no way and no qualifications to make decisions for you. Instead of wasting time here, I might as well give the choice to everyone." He thought to himself, just as he was about to put this idea into practice.

The door suddenly opened, and Bai Ye said unhappily, "Didn't I tell you not to bother me unless it's necessary?"

"It's me." The person said lightly. The familiar cold electronic sound made Bai Ye turn around suddenly. Cang Xing was standing behind him.

"Why are you here?" Bai Ye's tone softened instantly, and he quickly walked forward to greet him.

"You haven't left the room for three days. I was a little worried, so I came to check on you. There aren't many things that can make you so worried. What's the problem?" Cang Xing asked straight to the point.

"Being too smart is not a good thing. There is no suspense at all. Well, let me see," Bai Ye said helplessly and told the whole story.

After listening to Bai Ye's story, Cang Xing gave an answer instantly: "The two universes should be merged."

"This is the most rational and appropriate approach, but..."

"No, but no matter what our subjective wishes are, the objective facts cannot be changed. The invasion of nothingness and the large-scale loss of the Light of the Universe are problems that need to be solved urgently. It is there, you can't hide from it. No matter how much you try to avoid it, you will eventually encounter it."

"That's the truth, but it's still too cruel..."

"If you hesitate when you should make a decision, you will suffer the consequences. There will be pressure to be independent, but this is something we need to overcome. Ultimately, what we are doing is right. As long as the general direction is right, all difficulties will be temporary."

Cang Xing's words immediately woke Bai Ye up. Everything depends on the direction, right? If the direction is wrong, no matter how hard you try, you'll only achieve the opposite result.

No matter how much they deny it, the Leda Week is indeed over, and the Seer Universe is still alive. The dead will eventually make way for the living.

Just like when the Straw Hat Pirates burned down the Merry, I didn't understand it as a child, thinking it was too cruel. Only when I grew up did I realize that a sinking ship, no matter how much it was patched up, couldn't carry the dreams of a new era. Continuing to rest on our laurels and trying to fix things only after the fact would only end in the destruction of the ship and the loss of lives.

Today, I face the same choice. Everyone will eventually burn their own "Merry." Only by learning to let go of the past can we have a chance to move towards the future.
