Chapter 566: Chapter 514: You Shouldn’t Take it for Granted

Therefore, Daoist Xuanming dared not directly seek and probe the other party himself. He could only hope that Bai Xiaosheng would ask on his behalf, which would give him so room for flexibility.

“I understand your aning.” Bai Xiaosheng nodded, understanding what the other party ant and agreeing to it: “I can ask for you, but I can’t guarantee whether the answer will et your expectations. I also won’t argue excessively with Brother Pei about this.”

Bai Xiaosheng agreed to his request and also expressed his thoughts.

He still had a lot of collaboration with Pei Xuanjing, so although he agreed to ask on behalf of the other party, he would not strive for anything and absolutely could not let this matter affect his own affairs.

“Please rest assured. Regardless of the circumstances, I dare not have even a bit of complaint.” A smile appeared on Daoist Xuanming’s face as he said, “I will naturally present you with a gift of gratitude afterwards.”

Bai Xiaosheng’s willingness to help him probe for this answer was enough to satisfy him completely; naturally, he wouldn’t expect Bai Xiaosheng to argue with Pei Xuanjing on his behalf.

“It really is lonely at the top!” Pei Xuanjing sighed, his expression sowhat solemn.

He rembered the ti when he and Daoist Xuanming first t, the high-spirited discussions, martial arts debates, and casual discussions about the world. What free and relaxed days they were, he almost missed them.

Yet now, only several decades have passed, and just because the strength of both sides had changed, the other party had already altered their attitude, no longer daring to treat him as an equal.

This situation undoubtedly made Pei Xuanjing sigh. So, is it really true that it is lonely at the top?

As it stands now, as his cultivation continues to elevate in the future, would he have fewer and fewer Taoist friends by his side until he beca a solitary individual?

“This is also sothing that can’t be avoided.” Bai Xiaosheng sighed.

Loneliness at the top, it was an old adage. In this world of cultivation, it was even more apparent.

Pei Xuanjing mused, “If one attains Taoism and becos immortal, the disappearance of friends and family,what would it feel like after waiting for thousands and millions of years from now? Would it feel lonely?”

Cultivation itself is an evolution of life. As the essence of life is elevated, it results in powerful strength, long lifespan, unmatched might, it’s unimaginable.

However, not everyone in such constantly evolving cultivation can continue to move forward. Perhaps one day they might gain the ability of immortality, but their friends and family would be gone. How great would that loneliness and solitude be?

The Fairy Gods in the legends have beco indifferent to emotions because they have experienced the erosion of ti, and countless friends and family have passed away. The only things accompanying them are their Fairy Gods on the sa path and the endless Great Tao.

Perhaps when Pei Xuanjing becos a True Immortal in the future, his state of mind will change and tamorphose towards those Fairy Gods. However, at least for now, Pei Xuanjing does not like such a feeling.

Therefore, this revelation has undoubtedly strengthened Pei Xuanjing’s inner thoughts. He does not want to beco immortal alone; he wants to bring all beings to immortality together, creating the path of immortality, so he won’t be lonely, becoming a Fairy God devoid of emotions.

Perhaps many people think that once Pei Xuanjing has reached his current position, he would fulfill the ambitions of his predecessors in the Shenxiao Sect, reorganize the Taoist School, and push the Shenxiao Sect to a commanding position.

Regrettably, they are mistaken.

Pei Xuanjing’s plan is absolutely not like this. This strategy may be viewed by others as incredibly ambitious. However, to Pei Xuanjing, it is simply not worth ntioning.

One attains Taoism, everyone becos immortal. This is Pei Xuanjing’s true ambition, and it has never changed from the beginning.

He told Bai Xiaosheng, “You can tell Daoist Xuanming that I have no intention of reorganizing the Taoist School. He can rest assured that such a day will never co. This is my promise to a forr Taoist friend.”

Pei Xuanjing made a promise. He had no intention of consolidating the Taoist School or harboring thoughts of annexing other Taoist inheritances.

“Good!” Bai Xiaosheng nodded, seemingly not surprised by Pei Xuanjing’s answer.

In fact, among them, he had quite a lot of contact with Pei Xuanjing. Moreover, Pei Xuanjing had once talked to him about these things, so Bai Xiaosheng naturally understood Pei Xuanjing’s ambitious aspirations.

To consolidate the Taoist School, suppress the Buddhists and the Demonic Cult, and push the Shenxiao Sect to the peak, these actions might be rare feats in the eyes of others. However, Bai Xiaosheng believed them to be trivial for soone like Pei Xuanjing, who didn’t need to do any of these.

“Indeed, in my opinion, Daoist Xuanming is simply worrying too much!” Bai Xiaosheng said with emotion.

Although he agreed to Daoist Xuanming’s request and understood his concerns, that did not an he agreed with his point of view.

“Hmm?” Pei Xuanjing raised an eyebrow. He only heard Bai Xiaosheng disdainfully say, “His current worries are completely aningless. The root cause is the issue of strength. Even if you make a promise now, Brother Pei, there may co a day when even if you don’t want to lead the Taoist School, Daoist Xuanming and others may change their minds and seek your consolidation of the School.”

“It seems that Brother Bai has a different perspective?” Pei Xuanjing’s mouth curved into a smile.

Bai Xiaosheng spoke in a deep voice, “The most important reason Daoist Xuanming had such thoughts was that even though your current strength far exceeds theirs, Brother Pei, he did not face reality and let go of the pride of the Baiyun Temple’s inheritance. In his heart, there is still a hint of expectation and he considers himself equal to you, thus he is not worried that you might annex the Baiyun Temple with your influence.”

After saying this, Bai Xiaosheng scoffed, “However, that’s just his thought. He may see through it or he may be lucky, but all these don’t matter. What matters the most is, Daoist Xuanming and even the Baiyun Temple backing him do not have the qualifications to be compared with you, Brother Pei.”

This was Bai Xiaosheng’s true thought. The root cause was that the other party had not seen through their status. Perhaps these years of modesty from Pei Xuanjing, or the developnt of the Baiyun Temple, had led them to feel a sense of crisis. However, they have yet to truly understand the reality, assuming they were on equal footing with Pei Xuanjing.

“When it cos to dealing with you all, I have never thought of using my power to oppress others.” Pei Xuanjing shook his head.

Ever since he ford an alliance with people from the Taoist School, even when Pei Xuanjing later had the qualifications to suppress everything, he still maintained his original aspirations. He didn’t interfere with many affairs of the Taoist School and maintained the original status and fairness.

“Indeed, brother Pei’s conduct is very admirable.” Bai Xiaosheng first bowed with a smile, then his face turned serious as he said, “However, the weak should not take the strong’s tolerance for granted.”
