51: Light and morality

On a vast, empty plain, Wang Qingtian's three Dao Protectors surrounded him, forming a triangle.

The surroundings were silent, but the three Dao Protectors, including Wang Guangyi, were holding their breath, their eyes filled with a determination to die.

Previously, Wang Qingtian had refused to return, searching for foreign races all the way, and fortunately, he hadn't encountered any.

Later, when Li Qingqiu's news spread, Wang Qingtian immediately rushed over excitedly.

But halfway through the journey, an explosion sounded from behind him.

Turning around, the scene before him made Wang Qingtian's face turn pale with fright.

One of his Dao Protectors had simply exploded into thin air, torn into pieces by intense lightning elemental power, a terrifying sight.

Wang Guangyi reacted the fastest, immediately protecting the Young Lord and flying to the open plain!

Because he knew that the Assassin had returned!

Rushing all the way, the three Dao Protectors, with their considerable strength and high concentration, managed to avoid being ambushed by Poison Collect again.

But they had only managed to stay alive; all three were wounded, blood flowing freely.

Wang Guangyi had even lost an arm; when Poison Collect's Assassin Star plunged into his wrist, he unhesitatingly chose to sever his arm and retreat! That's how he avoided being blown up!

At this moment!

Wang Qingtian stared blankly as blood gushed from the severed arm, his gaze dull and cloudy!

In his mind, this servant, who had accompanied him since childhood, could do anything.

He could fix TVs, toilets, and computers, and he would secretly download games for him.

He would even help him find sources for adult films!

The first time he flew was also with him; he still remembered that day, the clear blue sky, and the magnificent clouds.

Sitting on Old Yi's shoulder, he excitedly waved his small fists.

He thought this world was simply beautiful and that life could always be so carefree!

It wasn't until his father threw him into this Secret Realm that he suddenly realized that perhaps this wasn't the case!

Here, no one indulged him, and the foreign races directly went for the kill!

He realized this when he was in the Tempering Pool, but he couldn't believe that the beautiful world had just collapsed like that.

Now, blood was still dripping from Old Yi's severed arm, and that seemingly unchanging face seemed to have gained three more wrinkles at this moment, with some gray hairs at his temples.

He screamed and cried for help like crazy, but half an hour passed... no one appeared.

At this moment.

"Boom!"

Another explosion, and Poison Collect rushed out like a ghost; another Dao Protector, unable to dodge, was instantly blown to death.

Blood splattered all over Wang Qingtian's face, and he completely broke down, wailing, "Who can come and kill this beast!!"

"Right! Xiao Fan... Xiao Fan, where are you!"

"Please come quickly, if you save us, I'll give you anything!!"

"My Wang family has plenty of money, everything, whatever you want is fine!!"

"Old Yi is going to die!!"

"Help! Help!!!"

At this moment, Wang Guangyi suddenly spoke, his voice hoarse and weak, "Young Lord..."

"Don't talk, Old Yi, you... you need to conserve your strength!" Wang Qingtian said in a panic.

Wang Guangyi smiled and said to himself, "I've always had a wish: to see the Young Lord, like the legendary Xi Chu Overlord, display absolute power in the center of the world."

"This old servant hopes that after he becomes a star, he can see the Young Lord's handsome demeanor."

"What stars! Old Yi, what kind of fairy tale are you talking about! Do you still think I'm three years old!?"

But Wang Guangyi seemed not to hear him, continuing to murmur, "Oh, Young Lord, there's one more thing. I promised Xiao Fan to give him the later chapters of Vajra Five Viscera. Young Lord, remember to give them to him then."

"Young Lord, I should have died fifteen years ago; it was you who allowed me to live for fifteen more years."

"This old servant... has never looked down on the Young Lord."

"In this old servant's heart, the Young Lord has always been the most outstanding!"

"Always has been..."

Wang Qingtian broke down, crying out loud, "I'm sorry! Old Yi, I shouldn't have yelled at you then!"

"Can we talk about everything after we survive, okay!?"

"Old Yi, Old Yi!!"

"What are you doing!!"

At this moment, Wang Guangyi suddenly took a step forward, moving away from Wang Qingtian.

He had lost too much blood and was on the verge of collapsing at any moment; his eyes were cloudy and unclear, as if he saw his fifteen-year-old self.

War had taken his wife and children, and he, with nothing, wandered like a lonely ghost, drinking, sleeping, repeating the cycle every day.

Until one day, the Wang family head found him and brought him to the Wang family, even giving him a name.

"From now on, you will be called Guangyi, representing light and Dao."

The first time he saw the Young Lord as a baby, Wang Guangyi felt that his world had light again, and his life as a lonely ghost ended at that moment.

He gave the fatherly love he originally should have given to his own children to the Young Lord.

The Young Lord was his light.

And before this journey, the family head had found him.

"Qingtian becoming like this now... I am responsible."

"It's just... Guangyi, Qingtian is closest to you. I hope you can make Qingtian realize the truth during this Secret Realm trip."

Wang Guangyi didn't know how to carry out this important task.

Make the Young Lord undergo a drastic change in just a few days?

How could that be done?

Now he knew, perhaps, my death can make the Young Lord understand that the world is not so beautiful.

Actually, I am more responsible for the Young Lord becoming like this.

Wang Guangyi smiled; the reason the family head had found him was because of his special talent.

Although it was a Quasi-Saint talent, its name was 'Death Warrior'.

A very mysterious talent, its ability was to exchange life for life!

Now, it was time to use this talent that could only be used once in a lifetime!

Guangyi...

I have light.

I also have Dao!

I am worthy of this name, and I am worthy of the Wang family!

When on the verge of death, perception would greatly increase, like a final surge of vitality.

Therefore, at this moment, Wang Guangyi clearly sensed the trajectory of the Assassin Star!

He suddenly turned around, his eyes suddenly turning completely black.

Poison Collect appeared, and seeing this scene, he immediately cursed, "What the hell!?"

"Are you kidding me?"

"Death Warrior!?"

"Damn it, how could I encounter such a bizarre talent, one in a billion!?"

"I've been screwed!!!"

At this moment, Wang Qingtian was stunned, "Death Warrior? What Death Warrior?"

"Hey! Explain clearly?"

"Old Yi, what's wrong with you? Why do I feel such strong Death Qi around you!?"

"Old Yi, don't joke with me!"

"Old Yi!!"

Black Death Qi appeared around Wang Guangyi; his wrinkles deepened at a visible rate, and his hair gradually turned from black to white.

Poison Collect, floating in the air, immobilized by the Death Warrior, was also the same; he too began to age rapidly, his eyes filled with horror, screaming frantically.

Wang Qingtian was in agony, "Why... why is this happening!!"

"Why am I so weak!?"

"Why do you have to die!"

"Why is this world so cruel!!"

"Someone, save Old Yi!"

"Help!!! Old Yi is going to die!!! Is there no one to save him!!!"

Suddenly!

A gust of wind brushed past him!
