Rebirth as a Willow Tree, building the strongest tribe in all of eternity-Chapter 250 - 196: Jiang Hui and Willow God Discuss Dao (Part 3)_1
Chapter 250: Chapter 196: Jiang Hui and Willow God Discuss Dao (Part 3)_1
“I was simply nameless to begin with, the title ‘Sir’ is more than enough for me.” Jiang Hui said, shaking his head.
Frankly, he’d like to bestow upon himself a title with a wind-like dominance, but the words within his brain were simply too scarce. After thinking and thinking, he still couldn’t come up with a suitable one.
As for titles with the likes of Dominating Sky and Overbearing Heaven, he would never opt for them as they were overly juvenile.
Such boastings would be fitting if addressed to his own family, but if such words were to spread, and he later established a reputation, he would become the centre of public humiliation wherever he went.
“If you do not wish to divulge, then I shall not force you!”
The Willow God subconsciously thought that Jiang Hui did not want to reveal his real name and surname, but she did not insist.
It wasn’t that important to her, just a passing mention.
“The purpose of my visit today is to inquire if you… know me? I heard that you seem to be a Willow Tree who has attained enlightenment, coincidentally akin to my own origin!”
The Willow God spoke calmly, getting to the main point.
When she uttered the last sentence, she emphasised her words slightly, embodying a sense of hopeless effort yet still harboring the faintest hope. “Sorry, strictly speaking, we don’t know each other!”
Jiang Hui’s gaze was as bright as a star, glancing at the Ancestral Spiritualist of the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands in front of him.
He couldn’t use a mind-reading technique, but he could still guess what the Willow God was thinking in her heart.
Emerging amidst despair, entering and exiting the alien territory nine times, causing the kings of the alien territory to tremble with fear, being targeted by the three Immortal Kings of the Immortal Domain, then reincarnating under the thunderstorm, and gloriously living a second life.
Fighting through the chaotic ancient times from the Immortal Ancient, despite her accomplishments in creation, and dazzling glory, the many familiar figures along the way have now turned into piles of skeletons. Only eternal loneliness remained by her side.
Her greatest wish was undoubtedly for her old friends to be reincarnated like her and reunite.
But Jiang Hui could not joke about this matter.
He only knew the Willow God, but they had, in no way, met each other before.
“It seems like it was just wishful thinking on my part!” The Willow God held her head low, a rare hint of desolation flashing in her eyes.
A touch of the setting sun’s glow landed softly upon her.
As the sun went down, this figure looked inexplicably solitary and noble.
Little Dot nearby felt his heart tighten slightly, feeling that his master must have experienced many terrifying things. She might have gone through a major war, with all her friends around her dying in battle, while she herself was forcibly reborn in the midst of countless thunderstorms.
He inquired about the Willow God countless times, but she always avoided talking about it and never divulged more.
“May I ask, sir, what exactly did you mean by the words you spoke to my disciple earlier?”
With her emotions collected, the Willow God spoke once more.
This was the second reason for her visit here.
“It was just idle talk when I was bored. If you can listen, then listen, if you can’t, then let it float away with the wind. They’re just nonsense, empty words.” Jiang Hui waved his hand, saying.
“Why does it seem to me that it is far from simple, as you have described?!”
The Willow God naturally didn’t believe him, as his words obviously had implied meanings.
“It’s just that the listener perceives it this way.”
No matter how much she questioned, Jiang Hui was unwilling to say more.
He had said what he needed to say.

“If you don’t want to say more, we’ll leave it at that!”
The Willow God still didn’t insist, it wasn’t in her character.
What’s important is, she had already discerned that the god of Liu Village bore no malice at all towards Little Dot.
This was vital.
“If so, I do have another question. It’s clear that you are extremely protective of your followers, what would you do when they eventually have to face the stages of life: birth, aging, sickness, and death?”
The Willow God asked, almost subconsciously.
It was a profound question; she rarely asked it, but the god of Liu Village in front of her gave her a strange feeling,
“If I possessed the power to reverse life and death, I would naturally bring them back to life.”
“But that day will eventually come, right?”
“Then, I’ll turn it around for as many lives as it takes!” Jiang Hui said calmly.
“As a sacrificial spirit, you are undoubtedly deserving. However, birth, aging, sickness and death are part and parcel of life, also the universal laws of the universe. Birth is hope, and so is death. Within life and death lies the Great Path of Heaven and Earth. Going with the flow is the way to truly abide by the Great Tao.”
The Willow God shook her head. Strictly speaking, she didn’t quite agree with Jiang Hui’s viewpoint.
Therefore, even though she was the spiritual guide of Stone Village, she wouldn’t meddle too much in the villagers’ affairs and rarely appeared in front of humans.
The reason she helped Little Dot was because she saw her own image in him; Both of them went from death to life, and in their hearts, their beliefs were still intact.
“My cultivation is nothing more than the pursuit of the Path of Longevity and the pursuit of the utmost power. In itself, it is against the heavens, contending with the heavens for life and power, destined to be fraught with challenges. If I went with the flow, I wouldn’t have embarked on this path in the first place.” “Followers are the beings my heart cares for, the ones I wish to protect. If I can’t even protect them, I might as well enjoy myself in this world!”
“Just like The Guest paid everything to fight against the Alien Territory, protecting the Nine Heavens and Ten Lands, safeguarding the peace of the Three Thousand Dao Provinces, the moment we stepped on this road, it is decided that we must fight to the end, with no way back. I wonder if The Guest would embark on that road again?!”
Jiang Hui spoke in a leisurely manner.
“You… how do you know?”
The Willow God wanted to refute, but her expression changed instantly upon hearing Jiang Hui’s words.
She originally thought that he wouldn’t know what she meant by darkness, but she didn’t expect him to say it word for word at this moment.
Yet, she clearly sensed that the man in front of her could not be more than a hundred years old, and he didn’t possess any aura of a powerful figure being reincarnated. How could he know such secrets?!
“Willow God, what does this mean?”
Suddenly, Shi Hao, who was aside, sensed something and couldn’t help but ask.
At that instant.
There was a strong premonition.
The Willow God would eventually leave him, leave Stone Village. Perhaps when they met again, countless years would have passed.
“We are bound to part ways sometime, please don’t be upset.”
Although she was surprised at how the god of Liu Village knew, she did not intentionally hide it from Little Dot.
Because one day, she will leave this place to find the source of the disturbance. It is a road of no return, but it must be embarked on nonetheless.
“Willow God!” Shi Hao’s voice trembled. He had never considered this possibility, but now being suddenly informed, his heart was filled with reluctance.
Along the way, the Willow God had taught him a lot, even imparted her method of cultivation, helped him establish a solid foundation. Moreover, if it weren’t for the Willow God’s intervention, he might have lost his life in the Wilderness long ago.
“Willow God, where are you going? I will follow in your footsteps in the future!” Shi Hao said, his gaze resolute.
“I have my mission and I am bound to go to that place. You don’t need to follow me. Just live well. The place I am going to, I don’t know how far it is. The road is long. Maybe when I pass through the oldest gateway, I can reach it. But there’s another possibility, maybe my true body has already turned into a pool of dirty blood.”
The Willow God spoke, a hint of vicissitude flashing in her eyes, as if recalling something, then gave a sigh..
