A Will Eternal Chapter 289: Patriarchs, Send Me To The War!

Chapter 289: Patriarchs, Send Me To The War!

Bai Xiaochun felt like his head was about to explode. Eyes widening, he looked up at the bird, feeling like he was about to go insane.... The truth was that this bird actually had two names. In the Blood Stream Sect, it was called a bloodspirit heron, but in the Spirit Stream Sect, it was known as an irispetal ibis.

However, he wasnt sure which name to call it. That was especially true considering that killing intent was surging on both sides of him. He could almost feel the tears welling up in his eyes. How he hated that bird....

Damn you, bird! he thought. Why? Why why why did you have to show up here!?!? Trembling, he looked at Song Junwan on his left, and Hou Xiaomei on his right. Both of them were staring at him with looks of anticipation on their faces. He could well imagine that whoever he sided with, the other would be deeply and profoundly grieved.

Bai Xiaochun gritted his teeth and prepared to make up a new name. However, that was when Song Junwan suddenly said, Nightcrypt, dont you dare try to pull a fast one by making up a new name!

Big bro Xiaochun, Hou Xiaomei chimed in, you cant say you dont recognize it. I know youve seen those birds in the Spirit Stream Sect before!

It was a rare occasion: Hou Xiaomei and Song Junwan were siding with each other as they stared at Bai Xiaochun, deep emotions flickering in their eyes....

I... I.... Sweat dripped down Bai Xiaochuns face. By this point, he was in a state of complete despair. Back when theyd brought him medicine, hed managed to pull a fast one, but as of this moment, that didnt seem possible.

What do I do...? he thought, his eyes glistening with tears. Based on how Song Junwan and Hou Xiaomei were pushing him, it was obvious that they didnt care at all what the bird was called, they just wanted him to choose between the two of them.

Eyes bloodshot, he pointed up at the bird and howled, Fine! Ill tell you. That bird is a... its a....

Suddenly, he bit down on his tongue, and then unleashed his cultivation base power, allowing it to run wild within him. As it burst into his qi passageways, a sweet taste filled his mouth, and then he spat out a mouthful of blood. Then his vision started going dark, and he began to lapse into unconsciousness.

In the last moment before he passed out, he sighed deeply.

Song Junwan and Hou Xiaomei were completely shocked. Not only did they see Bai Xiaochun coughing up blood, considering that they were holding him up by the arms, they could sense that his cultivation base was in chaos. Hou Xiaomei looked like she was about to cry as she carried Bai Xiaochun back into the immortals cave. As for Song Junwan, she pulled out a huge collection of spirit medicines, which she began to push into his mouth.

Some distance away on the two mountain peaks, the Song Clan patriarch and Patriarch Ironwood watched the scene play out, their eyes flickering with sympathy.

The Song Clan patriarch sighed and said, Did the little brat really think getting involved with women could be so simple? I learned the truth of it years ago. With the flick of a sleeve, I detached myself from all impurities.

In rare fashion, Patriarch Ironwood seemed to completely agree with him. Nodding, he said, Love is tribulation. Years ago, I severed such tribulation. Actually, now that I think about it, I cant even remember the faces of those old flames from years ago.

The two old men exchanged a look. For the first time, they were in unison on something. Shaking their heads, they began to think back to their own pasts.

A few days later, Bai Xiaochun opened his eyes and hurried over to the copper mirror hanging on the wall in his immortals cave. When he looked into the mirror, he saw a gaunt, pale figure. As far as he was concerned, his world was now a world of darkness....

After a long moment, he sighed and prepared to go outside and get some fresh air. He needed to calm down and think of an idea of how to deal with the situation.

It wont work for things to keep going on in this way. Their games are going to drive me to an early grave.... Sighing, he pushed open the door of the immortals cave, and was just about to step outside, when he suddenly went completely stiff.

You two.... Sweat broke out on his forehead as he realized that standing right outside the door of the immortals cave were Song Junwan and Hou Xiaomei. It was impossible to say when they had arrived, but there they stood, right next to each other, smiling at him.

Nightcrypt, lets go for a walk! Song Junwan said, her eyes glittering charmingly.

Big bro Xiaochun, I wont make you name the birds this time. Hou Xiaomei said, blushing a bit and seeming more pure and charming than ever.

And yet, the eyes of both women seemed to have inadvertently come to rest on his feet.

Bai Xiaochun felt all the hair on his body stand up on end. By now, he realized the truth. These two demonesses had become addicted to toying with him. Their games had reached the point where even which foot stepped out of his immortals cave first was a point of contention....

This was ridiculous. These two demonesses werent even human.... Trembling visibly, he didnt dare to step outside.

Um, so... fancy meeting you two here, huh? Im... Im feeling a bit tired, I think Ill stay inside today.... Forcing a smile onto his face, he began to back up. However, in that instant, a killing aura sprang up from Song Junwan, and as for Hou Xiaomei, her eyes began to fill with tears as she looked piteously at him.

One seemed murderously angry, the other, wronged and maligned....

Bai Xiaochun was on the verge of going mad. He was in such pain that he suddenly unleashed all of the spiritual power that he had carefully built up inside of himself. The chaotic power swept through him, causing blood to spray out of his mouth. Yet again, his vision went dark, and he collapsed.

Before losing consciousness, he didnt sigh, but tears filled his eyes.

Two days later in the middle of the night, Bai Xiaochun lay on the stone bed, and his eyes slowly opened. Then, he lay there staring up at the ceiling, tears flowing down his temples.

Back when it was Hou Xiaomei by herself, it was so great. She believed anything I said. But now....

Back when it was Song Junwan by herself, everything went my way. All I had to do was lose my temper a bit, and she would do anything I asked. But now....

With both of them together, its simply terrifying.... As he thought back to how wonderful it had been to simply deal with them alone, more tears flowed.

No. If things keep going on this way, Im gonna end up dead!!

Theyre going to toy with me all the way to the grave, torment me to death! Im already on the verge of going crazy. First was the medicine, then that bird. Next, theyre trying to decide which foot I walk with. Before you know it, theyre going to be watching to see which eye opens first, or which hand twitches....

I cant stay around here any longer. These two demonesses are too terrifying. Ive already coughed up blood twice. If this keep up, I could lose my poor little life. Trembling, face a mask of terror, he gritted his teeth!

I need to join the war effort!!

On the battlefield, theres a chance I might get killed, but here, Ill definitely go crazy sooner or later.... He suddenly felt more than ever like he truly wanted to join the war. In fact, his heart had already left the Luochen Mountains; he had no desire whatsoever to stay.

He rose to his feet, his expression that of unswerving determination. He seemed different than he had moments ago; his veins of steel were pulsing, and his eyes shone with intense light. He quickly packed his bags, then quietly opened the door of the immortals cave. Sending his divine sense out first, he looked around the area.

It was currently the middle of the night, and the moon was obscured by the clouds. Everything was pitch black, and silent except for the sounds of various night creatures and birds.

He looked around vigilantly to make sure that Song Junwan and Hou Xiaomei werent lying in wait. Then, he burst into motion, drawing upon all the speed he could muster, even using his wings. He became a beam of light that shot at top speed toward the two mountain peaks occupied by the Song Clan patriarch and Patriarch Ironwood.

Fearful of attracting the attention of Song Junwan and Hou Xiaomei, he moved as fast as he could without actually making any noise in the process. Soon, he reached the two mountains, where he stopped in place and took a deep breath. His eye shone with determination, and his expression was that of ultimate decisiveness. He suddenly seemed like a combination of both Bai Xiaochun and Nightcrypt, heroic, extraordinary, and at the same time, formidable and ruthless!

He seemed taller than before as he strode forward to the base of the twin peaks. Eyes shining with cold ferocity, he clasped hands and bowed.

I am legacy echelon disciple Bai Xiaochun of the Spirit Stream Sect, and blood master Nightcrypt of the Blood Stream Sect. Greetings, Patriarchs!

The Song Clan patriarch and Patriarch Ironwood slowly opened their eyes, and looked down in surprise at Bai Xiaochun.

A murderous aura sprang up around Bai Xiaochun as he said, Stepfather, Patriarch, as the blood master of Middle Peak, and as a legacy echelon cultivator of the Spirit Stream Sect, I must perform meritorious services! I must go to the battlefield to face the enemy!

The Song Clan patriarch and Patriarch Ironwood had strange expressions on their faces. After a moment, the Song Clan patriarch said, I thought you hadnt recovered yet?

Stepfather, a few injures are like nothing when compared to the greater good of both sects! He smiled broadly, as if he didnt care at all about his injuries. At the same time, the determination in his eyes grew more intense. What cultivator can go through life without being injured? The important thing is the value of that injury. As for me, I was injured trying to project our sects!

He looked very heroic as he stood there uttering such words. Anyone who might have been able to see him would have been shocked. He seemed boundlessly righteous, a manly man as strong as iron and completely unafraid of dying!

The battlefield is a dangerous place, and death is a common thing there. Arent you afraid of that? Patriarch Ironwood asked softly.

Bai Xiaochun laughed heartily. Smacking his chest casually, he said, Im a true man! Blood will be spilled on the battlefield, thats true. But how could I simply stand by and watch my fellow sect members fighting in battle while I relax in comfort? That... is not Bai Xiaochuns way of doing things, and it is definitely not Nightcrypts style!

Patriarchs, theres no need for further discussion. I... I definitely want to join the war effort!! His sonorous words were spoken with decisiveness that could sever nails and chop iron.

Very well, the Song Clan patriarch said. Thats exactly how a son of mine should act. He and Patriarch Ironwood exchanged a glance, then nodded. Tomorrow morning, you can take this teleportation medallion to the teleportation portal. It will take you to our garrison in the Profound Stream Sect region! Laughing heartily, the Song Clan patriarch waved his hand, sending a command medallion flying toward Bai Xiaochun.

Bai Xiaochun grabbed the medallion and flashed a carefree smile.

Whats the point in waiting until tomorrow? My heart burns with the desire to kill the enemy! I cant sleep like that! Ill head to the teleportation portal immediately, and wade directly into battle. The time has come to put my life on the line for the sects! Flicking his sleeve, he transformed into a beam of light that shot directly toward the teleportation portal. Moments later, the light of teleportation shot up into the sky, illuminating the darkness of night. A single figure could be seen in the light, his hair whipping around him, radiating determination, righteousness, and at the same time, bloody murder....

The Song Clan patriarch and Patriarch Ironwood laughed and looked at each other. Seeing the smiles on each others faces, they realized at some point, they had come to admire each other a bit.
