195: Section 195
But now, their Dao Child had come to Taichu Holy Land to become a follower of a Quasi-Saint Child.
When the Dao Child first spoke of this matter, the Elders of Tianhai Holy Pavilion were all in an uproar, instinctively wanting to stop him.
However, the Dao Child was extremely stubborn and insisted on coming, even stating his reasons.
"Quasi-Saint Child Chu Mo ascended to the top of this Origin Monument, his talent unmatched through the ages. I once lost to him, and my Dao Heart collapsed. Now, only by becoming his follower can I follow in his footsteps and reconstruct my Dao Heart!"
As soon as these words were spoken, all the Elders and the Sect Master fell silent.
Just as the Dao Child said.
His Dao Heart had already collapsed. If he did not reconstruct his Dao Heart, even if his Realm improved, he would only be a walking corpse.
Only by reconstructing his Dao Heart could he truly recover.
And Chu Mo...
Ascending to the top of this Origin Monument, his talent unmatched through the ages; becoming his follower was not entirely unacceptable.
Therefore.
After careful consideration, they finally agreed.
But...
Watching his own Dao Child humbly requesting at the mountain gate, he still felt a bit uncomfortable in his heart.
.
Thinking of this, he couldn't help but ask, "What if that Chu Mo doesn't want to see Your Excellency?"
"If he doesn't see me, I will stand here until he is willing to see me!"
"I must become his follower on this trip!"
The Dao Child's expression remained unfazed as he spoke slowly.
His voice was soft, but it contained determination.
Seeing this.
The Elder felt a bit helpless and could only sigh.
After waiting for a moment.
A streak of light suddenly flew over. Upon seeing the group from Tianhai Holy Pavilion, he immediately descended.
"Dao Child of Tianhai!"
Elder Shaoguang bowed slightly, showing his respect, then said, "The Quasi-Saint Child has agreed to see you. Please follow me!"
"He agreed to see me?!"
Upon hearing this, the young Dao Child's eyes immediately lit up with joy, and he quickly followed.
However.
Just before he left, he suddenly thought of something and said to the Elders behind him, "You all can wait for me here. There's no need to go in!"
After speaking, without waiting for the Elders' reply, he directly followed Elder Shaoguang towards Taihua Peak.
On the spot.
Only the Elders of Tianhai Holy Pavilion were left looking at each other, and finally, they exchanged a smile.
On Taihua Peak.
The Dao Child of Tianhai followed Elder Shaoguang here, ascending towards the peak.
A figure dressed in white stood at the peak, his back to the crowd, gazing at the sea of clouds in the distance.
The Dao Child of Tianhai fixed his gaze upon him, feeling that this person possessed a vast presence, surrounded by rich Dao charm, with the power of creation swirling around him, and immortal light formed by Law permeating the air. A single glance seemed to directly perceive the Origin of the Great Dao of Heaven and Earth, causing his mind to tremble involuntarily.
More importantly.
From Chu Mo, he also felt an Aura as if facing a deep abyss, which made his mind involuntarily become solemn, and a sense of reverence surged in his mind.
"This Aura is even more terrifying than it was during the Sword Tournament of Various Sects!"
"If before it was merely a surging river, now it is like a vast ocean, immeasurable!"
"No wonder he could ascend to the top of this Origin Monument, truly terrifying!"
The young Dao Child's mind trembled as he thought to himself, his gaze towards Chu Mo filled with even greater reverence.
Thoughts churned in his mind.
He snapped back to reality and took the lead in bowing, saying, "Yǔwén Jí of Tianhai Holy Pavilion greets Quasi-Saint Child Chu Mo!"
Hearing this.
Chu Mo turned around and looked at the young Dao Child, who was several feet away from him, and couldn't help but ask, "Your Excellency is the Dao Child of Tianhai Holy Pavilion. You have specially come to see me. May I ask what the matter is?"
"On this trip, Yǔwén Jí has only one request. I ask Quasi-Saint Child Chu Mo to grant it!"
The young Dao Child lowered his posture significantly, speaking respectfully.
Chu Mo felt this respect and listened to the attitude in Yǔwén Jí's words, and couldn't help but raise an eyebrow, showing surprise.
Originally, he thought this person came to see him to challenge him, or at least had some other request, but he never expected such a good attitude, even... reverent!
"Please speak, Dao Child."
Thinking this, Chu Mo spoke.
"Since the last Sword Tournament of Various Sects, I was awed by the Divine Might of the Quasi-Saint Child and dared not make a move, which led to the collapse of my Dao Heart. Ever since then, I have constantly recalled the Quasi-Saint Child's Divine Might!"
"Later, I heard that the Quasi-Saint Child ascended to the top of this Origin Monument, and my heart was filled with admiration. Therefore, I have come this time to become a follower under the Quasi-Saint Child. I ask for your permission!"
After saying that.
He straightened his attire and then sincerely performed a grand bow.
"You want to become my follower?"
Even though Chu Mo had imagined several possibilities in his mind, he never expected that this young Dao Child from Tianhai Holy Pavilion, who traveled thousands of miles from overseas, and even went so far as to request an audience at the mountain gate, was merely to become his follower?!
More importantly.
The collapse of his Dao Heart was originally caused by himself!
He actually held no grudges?
Chu Mo looked at this young Dao Child, wanting to see if he was joking, but seeing the person's solemn and serious Aura, and respectful expression, he finally confirmed it.
This young Dao Child was actually serious!
He sincerely wanted to become his follower!

"I'm very curious, why do you want to become my follower?"
After pondering for a moment, Chu Mo asked.
He really wanted to know.
Why did this young Dao Child of Tianhai Holy Pavilion have such a thought?
"To become stronger!"
Yǔwén Jí said with a solemn expression, "You ascended to the top of this Origin Monument, suppressing all Prodigies from ancient times to the present. Your talent is unparalleled in the world, and you are destined to have an extremely bright future!"
"And coexisting with you in the same era, we are destined to be unable to compete. Instead of being overshadowed by your brilliance and unable to stand out, it is better to follow you. This might allow me to go further on the path of martial Dao!"
At this point.
He seemed to notice Chu Mo's surprise, paused, and then added, "Quasi-Saint Child, there's no need to find it abrupt."
"Although my Dao Heart was shattered because of you, it initially made my will extremely depressed. But after you ascended to the top of this Origin Monument, I instantly felt relieved—with your talent, you can suppress countless Prodigies, so it is natural for me to be defeated by you."
"Even..."
"In my opinion, this might be my destiny, which is why I came here!"
His words were very sincere.
Chu Mo could also tell that this was absolutely the young Dao Child's most genuine thought.
However...
Whether to accept him as a follower still made Chu Mo hesitate for a moment.
It wasn't that he looked down on this Dao Child.
After all.
The other party was still the Dao Child of a Holy Land, with an extraordinary identity.
And a follower, though called a follower, was actually like a servant or guard, responsible for handling miscellaneous matters. Once one became a follower, one could not betray, which was equivalent to entrusting one's fate to Chu Mo.
From then on, they would share glory and loss.
"Are you sure?"
Chu Mo asked one last time.
