Chapter 0319 – Ambition Begins – Absolute Return

by GreatBrother(위대한 다오 형제)

That night, Sect Leader Windsky tossed and turned and found it difficult to sleep, so he simply got up, went to the courtyard, and took a walk.

Jian Wu Ji’s words kept echoing in his ears, "Don’t look at him with preconceived notions."

He really didn’t do it.

He only saw the change in Zhaoboda, but ignored his heart. He kept wondering, how did Zhaoboda become like this? Before, he wasn’t like this.

He was swayed by his emotions.

"He actually replaced the Sect Master’s Hall, all of it? If he truly respected me, he wouldn’t have done that."

However, if you think about it, honoring him, and renovating the Sect Master’s Hall, were simply two different things. Zhaoboda might have just felt that the Patriarch’s Hall needed to be renovated, or perhaps, he had other reasons.

Yes, Jian Wu Ji was right, the answer, was not in his heart, but in Zhao Bo Da’s. He should have been observing Zhaoboda’s eyes instead of looking at the refreshed Sect Master’s Hall.

Just as he was rambling, the Devil Buddha, glowing with golden light, walked out of the room.

"Which godfather is it that keeps you up at night?"

"Which godfather?"

"Is it our Young Sect Master? Or the current Sect Master of the Windy Sky Sect?"

"Who else?"

Sect Leader Windy Sky asked.

The Devil Buddha looked at him meaningfully. It was only then that Sect Leader Windy Sky reacted to the fact that the third Sect Leader that the Devil Buddha was talking about was himself, the former Sect Leader Windy Sky.

Sect Leader Windsky smiled to himself and said:

"The problem, as always, is the former godfather."

Devil Buddha, however, shook his head and said:

"No, the one who keeps us up at night is the Young Patriarch."

Of course, Sect Leader Windsky understood what the Devil Buddha meant.

If it wasn’t for the Young Sect Leader, they wouldn’t, today, be here. Zhaoboda, right now, might still be in the Sect Leader’s Hall, waiting in agony, for the day to become a Sect Leader.

Thinking of this, Sect Leader Windy Sky, couldn’t help but shiver.

Gao Yue, perhaps, was still imprisoned in the Sect Master’s Hall. No, he had gotten the key to the chains, and perhaps, he had already left the Windy Sky Sect.

He, on the other hand, was still ignorant of Gao Yue’s identity, and had ordered Gao Yue to be killed. Thinking that he might lead a life like that, Sect Master Windsky, felt shuddering.

He walked over to a rock and sat down. In this way, he was able to look at the Demon Buddha, and the Demon Buddha, levelly at each other.

If it weren’t for the Young Sect Master, the Devil Buddha, right now, might also be living a different life.

If the Young Patriarch, were not the present Young Patriarch, the Grand Duke, would he have become the Young Patriarch?

Devil Buddha suddenly said:

"Honestly, I’ve been having a great time lately."

Sect Master Windsky froze, and he almost blurted out, "Are you crazy?"

The Devil Buddha, to say he’s having a good time? Yes, he was also a human being, of course he would have happy moments. However, he didn’t expect that the Devil Buddha, would actually take that emotion and show it.

"I like this, the feeling of experiencing a different life. Is it possible that my previous life, was too boring?"

The Magic Buddha smiled to himself.

He let go of his fight for power, he helped the Windy Sky Sect Master, and came to the Windy Sky Sect, he accepted the Poison King, and asked him to help collect poisonous herbs, and his life was, indeed, different from what it used to be, before.

"I never, before, thought that I would live another life."

Devil Buddha said.

Sect Master Windsky suddenly said as he listened to the words of the Demon Buddha:

"It’s like I’ve never, ever, really gotten to know you."

Whether it was in the beginning, when they got along like friends, or later, when they turned against each other because of the competition for the inheritance, or even, until now, he had never really understood the Demon Buddha.

The Devil Buddha wasn’t angry because he felt the same way. That was why he had said those words.

"All of this is the fault of the Young Sect Master."

Devil Buddha said.

Sect Leader Windsky smiled and nodded.

"Yes, it’s all the fault of the Young Prelate. It’s all the fault of that, the one who keeps us old guys, sleepless at night, arrogant and smart, the Young Sect Master."

Recently, his favorite thing to do, along with Devil Buddha, was to spit on Jian Wuji. Every time he spat on Jian Wuji, he felt incomparably happy.

Sect Master Windsky looked up at the night sky, the moon in the western region, looking even more desolate and lonely. Suddenly, he realized that he had made the same mistake again.

"Here I go again, I’m looking inside me, again, for answers."

He looked up at the moon once again, and this time, he realized that the moon in the West, and the moon in the Middle Kingdom, were not that different. Yes, even looking at the moon was a practice, not to be swayed by one’s emotions. The answer, lies in that moon.

The next day, before heading to the welcome reception, we held a war council.

"By now, the masterminds behind Phantom Lu should have lost contact with her. They will definitely think that Phantom Lü has fallen into our hands. They will have two reactions, either, hide or, retaliate against us."

I said.

The Windy Sky Sect Master and the Devil Buddha, however, were not worried in the slightest. They didn’t believe that anyone would dare to retaliate against the Heavenly Demon God Sect’s Young Sect Master, Devil Buddha, and the former Windy Sky Sect Master.

But, I know that our opponent, is the King of Illusions, who has lost his sister. What he, will do, no one can predict. So I reminded them:

"They, are the ones who practiced the Blood Sect’s lost demonic skills, we don’t know, what other tricks they will use, so we can’t take them lightly."

The two words "Blood Sect" were very effective against Sect Leader Feng Tian. When he heard these two words, his eyes immediately became stern. He had always believed that someone wanted to resurrect the Blood Sect.

"Bishop, when you are at the banquet today, watch carefully to see if anyone has been struck by the Dementor Technique."

I exhorted the Windy Sky Sect Leader.

I added to the Magic Buddha:

"They may sound off on you. You have to be careful and keep an eye out for anyone suspicious, approaching you."

I said as I stood up:

"Well, let’s get going, the battle, it’s just beginning."

I took Sect Leader Windy Sky and Devil Buddha and walked out of the room.

Sect Master Windy Sky and Devil Buddha, one on the left and one on the right, followed behind me. In the Western Region, they, are my left and right arms.

At the welcome banquet, the five great elders of the Windy Sky Sect, as well as other important figures, were all present.

In the Windsky Sect, not everyone was proficient in illusions, there were also some people that only practiced martial arts. For example, that Elder who was greeting the Windy Sky Sect Master, Hou Yang, was one of the Three Great Swordsmen of the Western Region, with superb swordsmanship.

"It’s been a long time."

Waitang said.

He could no longer address Sect Leader Feng Tian as "Sect Leader", so he didn’t know, how to address Sect Leader Feng Tian.

"How have you been?"

Sect Leader Windy Sky asked.

"Thanks to you, I’m all right. You seem to have lost a lot of weight."

Waitang said.

Hearing these words, Sect Leader Windsky, revealed a satisfied smile. These were his recent, favorite words to hear.

"You look, well, much better."

Hou Yang continued.

"Thanks, you look good too."

Sect Leader Windy Sky said.

If it had been before, he would have thought:

We used to be close, so he must, by now, have a crush on me.

However, right now, Sect Leader Feng Tian, was calmly observing Waitang.

Is that really true?

It was a question that disturbed him.

Jian Wuji’s words once again rang in his ears:

Don’t judge a person by past friendships, character, comments, kind words, or even gaffes; you have to look, listen, and feel with your heart.

"I’m so sorry I didn’t, in the past, reuse you."

Sect Leader Windy Sky suddenly said.

"What do you mean by that?"

Hou Yang asked in disbelief.

"I have always admired you, you are a pure martial artist. I am very grateful to you for joining the Windy Sky Sect. I once thought of giving you better treatment, but I kept procrastinating and missed the opportunity. I’m sorry."

Sect Leader Windy Sky said.

He had actually apologized to Hou Yang, which was the biggest change he had made since he met Jian Wuji. He had apologized to Gao Yue, he had apologized to the Demon Buddha, and now, he had apologized to Hou Yang. Yes, he should apologize to everyone.

Waitang froze, he didn’t know, what kind of drug was in the gourd of the Windy Sky Sect Leader.

The Windy Sky Sect Master, too, could see that there was a relationship between him and Hou Yang.

Their relationship stops just short of that.

"I just feel that if I don’t say it today, later, I won’t get the chance."

Sect Leader Windy Sky said.

"Thank you."

Waitang said.

The other elders, too, came forward and greeted Sect Leader Feng Tian.

After greeting them one by one, Sect Leader Windsky asked:

"How come we haven’t seen Elder Star?"

Hou Yang hesitated and said:

"Elder Star, has resigned as an elder."

Sect Leader Windsky was taken aback. Elder Star, named Master Star, was the head of the five elders and the person he trusted the most.
