Chapter 0966: Immense Horror
After consuming the Spirit Severing Powder, he was still too weak . Even with the strong desire to support him, Wu Yu still lost his consciousness along the journey .
In a state of blur, he vaguely heard heavy footsteps . Wu Yu was jolted awake from the sounds and sat up abruptly . By the bed in the wooden hut, Wu Yu saw Sun Wudao .
White hair, hunched back, a tinge of stubborness amidst his serene expression, and deep eyes . This was the deepest impression Wu Yu had of him . Seeing him once again, it was the same as before .
"Uncle Sun!"
Wu Yu could no longer hold back his emotions . He had even forgotten that they had not met at this point and called out his name directly .
Sun Wudao furrowed his brows and said, "How did you know that my surname is Sun?"
"I . . . . " Wu Yu didn't know how to answer . Regardless of the ups and downs he had been through, seeing him now still made Wu Yu feel like he was back in his youth . He had incomparable respect for Sun Wudao .
Sun Wudao didn't linger on the topic . He left the room and brought in a bowl of medicine for Wu Yu . He said, "Drink it . There are chores to be done in a while . "
"Alright . " Wu Yu endured the discomfort in his body . In fact, tears were welling up in his eyes as he drank the medicine .
"This is the immortal sect . Since you have come here, you have to remain here for the rest of your life . To survive in this place, you have to know the rules of the immortal sect . Since the upper echelon has arranged for you to be here, you have to work diligently . Do not speak frequently, follow the rules, and don't cause me any trouble . "
Sun Wudao said the words that Wu Yu had kept deep in his memory .
In the past, he wanted to make Wu Yu understand that his role was just a servant .
"Alright, I understand . I will definitely do my chores well . " Wu Yu nodded sincerely .
At this point, he saw the Ruyi Jingu Bang hanging around Sun Wudao's neck . All of a sudden, he felt a myriad of emotions .
"I have to get it so I can . . . . "
Although he didn't know the current circumstances, his intuition was telling him that if he lost the Ruyi Jingu Bang, he would be in deep trouble .
"Seeing that you look pretty honest, you can call me ‘Uncle Sun’ in the future . What's your name?"
"Wu Yu . "
Although it was a little different from before, it was still similar to how they first met . Sun Wudao was still stern and strict as he went through the complicated yet important matters of the immortal sect to Wu Yu .
This place was the Heavenly Sword Sect .
In his memory, he hadn't been here in a long time .
Sun Wudao was introducing and emphasizing . However, Wu Yu wasn't paying attention . His gaze was affixed on Sun Wudao . For him, the current Sun Wudao was the most important person in his life .
Along the way, he also saw Su Yanli, who Sun Wudao reminded him not to take a further look at .
Other than him, everything was as usual .
When they were in the Immortal Beast Garden, they encountered Zhao Chuan and the rest again . Although they were still mocking him, Wu Yu wasn't paying attention to them .
After experiencing the initial shock, his mental state had calmed down a little . He knew Situ Jin would be next and everything would happen as before . Tonight, he would get the Ruyi Jingu Bang .
"As long as I get the Ruyi Jingu Bang, I can start anew . Regardless of how things go and if I do really get a chance to relive my life, I have to secure the capital for the future . Otherwise, it will be troublesome in the future . "
What puzzled him the most was that he didn't know what he was experiencing now .
His gaze would still land on the Ruyi Jingu Bang on Sun Wudao from time to time . He didn't know why he was so anxious at this moment .
"It's better to pretend to not know anything and I'll still get the Ruyi Jingu Bang . Now that I know, I can't help but be nervous . "
The closer he was to Situ Jin, the more anxious he felt .
Finally, when the group arrived, Wu Yu could only recall Situ Jin's name . As for the rest, he had long forgotten .
In the past, he was fearful of this group of people . However, they were just ants in his eyes now . The only crucial thing was that their arrival played a part in him getting the Ruyi Jingu Bang .
Amid the fearful and respectful eyes of the servants, Situ Jin went to Su Yanli to seek guidance in cultivation . Wu Yu was chatting with Sun Wudao while working . This was a long lost sense of kinship . Just like the previous time, they lied on the gravel path after finishing their work .
Wu Yu illustrated his experiences to Uncle Sun as before . Sun Wudao also started to take pity on him .
"Child, forget everything that happened before . Now that you are in the Bipo Mountain Range, put away your hatred from the past and focus on the work . Perhaps you might receive pity from the immortals . At that time, they might bestow you some immortal essences that could purge the poison of the Spirit Severing Powder . You will have a chance for cultivation then . Perhaps you might still have a future - you may even become a leader for the servants in the future," said Sun Wudao .
Although he looked a little stern, he sincerely cared for Wu Yu and was thinking about Wu Yu's future . However, he was no different from an ordinary and kind old man . Wu Yu couldn't tell how he was related to the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal .
Truthfully, Wu Yu really wanted to ask if he was connected to the Great Sage, Heaven's Equal .
Obviously, he couldn't do so, especially before he obtained the Ruyi Jingu Bang .
He would look at the mountains from time to time as he got more anxious . When Situ Jin and the rest came down, there would be a clash . That would be the best opportunity for him to get the Ruyi Jingu Bang .
The closer it got to that moment, the more nervous Wu Yu was . He knew he wasn't nervous at this point in the past . The feeling of knowing what would happen in the future was truly mysterious . However, experiencing it again and feeling that everything would happen the same way in some manner was still really frightening .
"Why are you looking a little nervous? As long as you do you work honestly, the immortal wouldn't punish you . "
Sun Wudao reminded Wu Yu .
"Mm . I understand . "
Wu Yu kept his emotions in check . However, he couldn't stop himself from paying attention to what was happening there .
Finally, Situ Jin and the rest came out . Wu Yu's eyes were fixed on them as they came back to the Immortal Beast Garden . After which, it was just as fate had dictated . Something happened to one of the immortal cranes . Zhao Chuan and the rest blamed it on Sun Wudao as Wu Yu recalled . Situ Jin was infuriated and took his anger out on Sun Wudao and Wu Yu .
"This has nothing to do with him . This was all my fault," Wu Yu said as he endured the excruciating pain . This was something he had to do based on his recollections . However, the emotions he felt were completely different from the time before .
"You are a lowlife and yet you dare to play hero before me . " Situ Jin's expression was icy cold . Raising the metal whip once again, he flicked it towards Wu Yu . This time, Wu Yu could clearly see the trail of the whip approaching his head . He remembered that it was this strike that smashed his head apart . After which, he would lose his consciousness and eventually dream of the Ruyi Jingu Bang . . . .
The sense of death was never so near .
This moment was likely the most crucial moment for him .
However, as the long whip approached, Wu Yu subconsciously made some actions . After all, the various experiences in his memory had honed him to avoid death in most circumstances . It was especially so when he knew he was about to die . As a result, he made an action to protect his life .
He knew where Situ Jin's long whip was coming from and was fearful of taking the sensation of his brain smashing apart . It was especially so when he knew in advance that his head would be smashed .
Pa!
The whip broke his arms before landing on his head . Wu Yu didn't know if he was successful . He got a scare from his subconscious actions moments ago . Fortunately, he felt like he had died . After all, with just his arms, he couldn't possibly stop Situ Jin's whip .
He finally got what he wished for and lost consciousness, or perhaps had died .
In his memory, Sun Wudao would bury him and give him the Milky Way Suppressing Godly Metal Treasure .
The entire world had darkened at this point .
Before he lost consciousness and fell to the ground, he could see tears in Sun Wudao's eyes .
. . . . . . . . . .
"Urgh . . . . "
His head felt like it was splitting . Just as he regained consciousness, Wu Yu was grinding his teeth in pain . He felt as though he had dozens of needles pierced into his head . Sinister pain .
He gasped, struggled, and opened his eyes while enduring the pain .
"Wood . . . wooden hut . . . . "
He was lying at the same place he had woken up at previously .
His body felt alright, but his head was in a lot of pain . At this moment, he wasn't certain if his head was still fully intact . His thoughts were in complete chaos .
He could feel with his hands that he was wrapped in bandages . Blood had dyed the bandages red and he could even see that his fingers were oddly white . This showed that he had lost a lot of blood .
"I . . . . " He looked at the wooden hut blankly for a while before realizing that he was in Sun Wudao's wooden hut .
"Am I seeing Uncle Sun soon before going to the Immortal Beast Garden . . . . ?" Wu Yu recalled that he had arrived at the Bipo Mountain Range .
However, his headache became even worse and he felt like he was suffocating . This was because he recalled that he had gone to the Immortal Beast Garden, seen Situ Jin, and was then struck by Situ Jin .
"Jingu Bang! Jingu Bang!" He was flabbergasted . He examined his body in a hurry but couldn't find the Ruyi Jingu Bang at all .
"I didn't dream of the Ruyi Jingu Bang at all!"
Fear! Horror!
The Ruyi Jingu Bang was exceptionally important to him . He had never expected not to see the Ruyi Jingu Bang in his dreams before waking up in the wooden hut .
Wu Yu finally realized what true horror was .
He hadn't received the Ruyi Jingu Bang yet . If he continued living, he would be nothing without the Ruyi Jingu Bang!
This was a nightmarish experience .
Wu Yu struggled feebly on the bed, but his heart had sunk into eternal chill . Although his head was beyond painful, he didn't feel a thing in his heart .
"Are you awake?" Sun Wudao entered from the door after working for the entire day . He looked fatigued, but he still walked to Wu Yu's side, heaved a sigh, and said, "Thank you . If you hadn't taken the strike for me, this old man here would have definitely lost his life . "
He looked at Wu Yu sadly .
However, Wu Yu wasn't concerned about the thank you .
"Immortal Su Yanli was alarmed . She gave you an immortal essence, and that's the reason you kept your life . You are very lucky to not have died . "
This was likely because he had blocked the strike with his arms and hadn't fully died . After which, Su Yanli had given him an immortal essence . Therefore, he wasn't buried . . . .
This time, he saw the Ruyi Jingu Bang on Sun Wudao . It was nothing unique and looked just a piece of junk metal . . . . It was then that he realized that he was very far from getting the Ruyi Jingu Bang .
