Chapter 582: Succor Will Be Needed!

Everyone, without exception, sucked in a cold breath upon hearing those words.

Only Yun Yang's gaze burned brighter, his face flushed with excitement as he continued to narrate his story.

"In the end, he came upon the person he would grow to like the most when she was a mere nineteen years old. He came for his lover, breaking the restraints that the world had set on her, breaking free of the rules, and left, flying towards the sky. He used the Dao rule and allowed his lover to keep him company eternally!"

The skeletal person said softly, "Legend has it that he has resided for hundreds of thousands of years in that world!"

He looked up at Dugu Chou and said, "If you can do the same, and manage to cultivate the Principle of Dao, you can meet her again! Still…"

His explicit and implicit meaning was glaringly obvious. While Dugu Chou was at the top of this world, an apt cultivator who was unrivaled for thousands of years, he was still incomparable to the person in the legend. Saying that he could not do it at all was not just a mindless statement!

Feng Xiange sighed and lowered his head; picking up a wine pot, he gulped its contents down.

Ling Xiaozui sat calmly, but there was an inexplicable agitation in his expression. He exuded a sword intention that was subtle but almost soaring in its intensity.

Dugu Chou turned to look at Ling Xiaozui, his eyes glimmering. He spoke faintly but with emphasis on his words, "Ling Xiaozui… There will come a day when I shall truly drink with you in the clouds."

Ling Xiaozui's black robe fluttered even though there was no wind as he answered softly, "As you wish!"

It was easily discernable that while Feng Xiange was not the oldest among those seated, it was the hardest for his cultivation journey to advance, and there was not much longevity left in him. It was clear that it was hopeless for Feng Xiange to reach that realm.

However, Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui were still at their peak and they could still continue to live for quite some time. If they could make another breakthrough and add some substantial years to their longevity, they would have obtained an endless set of years again!

Therefore, despite knowing that the path in front of them was both arduous and trying, both of them were ambitious enough to strive for the ultimate way to Dao.

The skeletal person glanced first at Dugu Chou and then at Ling Xiaozui before lowering his head and pressing his fingers to calculate quietly. After some time, he lifted his head to look at Yun Yang in surprise before lowering it to calculate in silence again.

"What do you foresee?" asked Ling Xiaozui.

"It matters not what I foretell. I can't say it, no matter what I see…" The strangely skeletal person sighed but he still said softly, "Both of your fortunes aren't bad, you have to meet your succor and your path can be continued. Dugu and Ling Xiao both have the chance to advance in your cultivation journey, but… you'll have to plan well how your future path is to go. A single misstep will cause your downfall."

Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui asked simultaneously with a frown, "Please elaborate further."

The odd skeletal person said, "The way to Dao emphasizes much on fortune. Everyone will meet their succor in their lifetime. As long as you don't miss your fortuity and find your succor, paying the price you need to, success is achievable. What's left is only hard work, and effort that you will need to exert. Then, success awaits you. However, if you can't find succor or come across the wrong type of aid, then your fortuity ends there. There's no way to go any further."

"Fortuity and succor?"

Both Dugu Chou and Ling Xiaozui looked thoughtful.

The odd skeletal person turned again to gaze at Yun Yang. A gentle but sinister smile appeared on his sunken face as he said, "Young Brother Yun Yang, do you have anything to ask for as well?"

"I only want to ask that if I also have someone I wanted to revive, would it be the same as well?" asked Yun Yang after some careful pondering.

The skeletal person wore a mysterious smile and answered, "It's the same, and yet, not."

The answer caused curiosity to rise among the four men. Dugu Chou, Ling Xiaozui, and Yun Yang asked in unison, "What is the same? And what do you mean by it's not?"

"I can't say, I can't tell. When the time comes, you'll understand," answered the skeletal person.

Three of the men mused, lost in their own thoughts.

Dugu Chou's gaze on Yun Yang turned curious as he asked, "Young Brother Yun, you're so young, but do you already have a regret of love?"

Yun Yang rubbed his nose and replied, "Even though I may not worry now, there's still a fear for it in the future. I don't have it now, but there's no harm preparing earlier lest I mess up in the future."

"There is no truth in that answer. Look, it's fine if you don't want to tell me," Dugu Chou said with a roll of his eyes.

Ling Xiaozui laughed out loud at that.

Yun Yang laughed too, saying, "Well, I do have some thoughts about this incredibly arduous resurrection method. If this method were to be carried out smoothly, its main condition is to live long. Only when longevity is endless, will there be hope to reach the end of Dao. Senior Dugu and Brother Ling both have the basic requirements, especially Brother Ling, being at their prime both physically and mentally."

Dugu Chou grinned, glancing at Yun Yang with interest and said with a chuckle, "Especially your Brother Ling? Do you mean to say that I'm not at my prime, physically and mentally?"

"I only feel that if one always appears aged, the heart will follow in aging, even when one stresses that their heart is still young." Yun Yang said seriously, "If Senior Dugu wants to prove that your mentality is at its prime as well, you have to at least recover your appearance to that of when you were a youth. Then, it can be considered."

Ling Xiaozui guffawed upon hearing Yun Yang's elaboration.

Dugu Chou began chortling as well. As he laughed, his face and body suddenly changed visibly.

Yun Yang's eyes widened, watching Dugu Chou slowly and visibly turn from the image of an old man to that of a youth, one of strength and a tall posture… His grey hair gradually turned black, inky and shiny. The lines on his wrinkled face vanished slowly and became smooth, radiant… His hunched form slowly straightened up…

"Enough! Enough!" Ling Xiaozui stopped him quickly.

Dugu Chou laughed and stopped cultivating. His image now was already that of a middle-aged man in his thirties. He asked with a wide smile, "How about now?"

The corners of Yun Yang's lips twitched in amusement.

'You know, I was just saying those things. You didn't have to immediately transform and prove me wrong.'

'Could you be any less amazing?'

'It's not even a disguise! Even reconstructive surgery would lend itself to such an exaggerated change!'

"Right you are." Ling Xiaozui observed and said, "If you were to grow any younger, I'm afraid you'll be entangled in even more romantic affairs once again. The heart of ladies are easily hurt; can you bear wounding these poor souls?"

The group guffawed.

The skeletal person laughed and said, "Everyone has their wish, be it a long-term or short-term goal. Spill it out, let us see if we can help and benefit each other."

"Coming out this time, I wouldn't have dreamed of meeting Feng Xiange nor Ling Xiaozui, especially, of course, not you. I came out only wanting to do some exercise, train myself against a few opponents. All that has happened since are surprise gains, my fortuity," said Dugu Chou.

Yun Yang's eyes shone when he heard the old man and said respectfully, "Senior Dugu's wish will be easy to fulfill! I dare not comment on other things in Tiantang City, but we have too many experts here. This junior is happy to be the host and willing to help senior find some opponents to spar against."

Ling Xiaozui looked at the young man thoughtfully, thinking to himself, 'At least you know how to speak. I thought you were going to say – as long as you stay by my side, I'll guarantee you endless battles and no shortage of expert opponents…'

Actually, Yun Yang had indeed planned to say something like that. He had swallowed the words and had, instead, foreshadowed his meaning. Of course, the implication was still the same!

"I am mainly here because of coincidence and my mood. I was loitering around and have somehow roamed all the way here." Ling Xiaozui looked at ease; glancing at Yun Yang, he said faintly, "Now that Dugu is here, I'll be saved from lots of trouble."

Yun Yang was deeply moved. At such a chaotic time, for Ling Xiaozui, who was as unworldly as the wild stocks and drifting clouds, to embroil himself in this giant whirlpool, he must have come for him. Now, in Tiantang City, Ling Xiaozui was probably still concerned about him.

"I'm here to find help." The skeletal person said, "At the same time, to find fighters. However, I have found three instantly, and at the same place. What great fortune, a great chance indeed."

Dugu Chou, Ling Xiaozui, and Feng Xiange snorted loudly in unison.
