Chapter 878: Eternity

Even after seeing Gongsun Yun’s sorrow, Bai Xiaochun still didn’t tell him the truth There was no way he could How could he possibly explain that Gongsun Wan’er had actually been killed long ago in the Fallen Sword Abyss?

It would be too cruel to tell Gongsun Yun that the little sister he had seen afteras really that bizarre girl Bai Xiaochun simply couldn’t bear to deliver such a bitter blow

Instead, he told Gongsun Yun a story in which his sister sacrificed her life as a hero

The story he told wasn’t without its flaws, and apparently Gongsun Yun realized that But he didn’t ask any follow-up questions…

“Little sis, was that really you who caht The truth was that he had asked himself that same question on many occasions, and didn’t really want to know the answer…

After Gongsun Yun left, Bai Xiaochun felt even worse than before He didn’t like feeling like this He liked being happy and having fun However, as he grew up, he realized that such emotions were inescapable

Oftentiht now, all the graves he had seen caused Zhou Xinqi’s face to float in his mind even more clearly than before, as well as es he simply couldn’t dispel

At the moment, no other patriarch in the sect had a better chance of beco a deva than Patriarch Spirit Stream He was in a better position than even Patriarch Blood Stream

“And the truth is that our sect… is a home to all of us, patriarchs included!” Patriarch Spirit Stream was very, very old, and in fact, if it weren’t for the fact that he relied on a special secretsince perished Perhaps because of that secret ic, or perhaps because of the dra Sect had seen in recent years, his face was covered with evenhim seem even more ancient

At this point, Bai Xiaochun’s nawing at his mind Slowly but surely, he looked over at the patriarch

“Patriarch… don’t we cultivators practice cultivation so that we can live forever? Why do we have to go around fighting and killing all the ti as we're alive, there are endless possiblities!
