Chapter 905 -49: The Sucker
Link didn’t look back.
Without saying farewell to Jasmine, or to Palo, Serene, and Cody, Link boarded the starship that Jasmine had brought back and that Lotson had not reclaimed.
In the medical room of the Sage Selene in the camp of the Four Sects Legions, Jasmine gazed at the starship carrying Link away, lost in a trance.
Her eyes were brimming with extremely complex emotions.
There was reluctance, concern, anticipation, and a trace of self-reproach…
If it were possible, she would definitely stand by Link’s side, shoulder to shoulder, facing all the ups and downs together.
However, the reality was that from the moment Link made his decision, many things could only be faced by Link alone.
If Jasmine forcibly followed, not only would she not be of much help, but she would also distract Link.
This wasn’t a matter of ability, but one of the speed of growth.
The “predetermined destiny” didn’t give Link much time to grow, and even less so for Jasmine.
After all, Jasmine’s qualifications, talents, and opportunities were actually not as good as Link’s.
Moments later, Jasmine gathered her emotions and stopped gazing into the distance.
What was done was done; self-reproach was useless.
Link was off to attend to his matters, and as his wife, Jasmine had to take care of everything behind him.
Just like before.
Inside the starship, Link watched as Jasmine’s figure disappeared from the screen, and he too felt a surge of melancholy for a while.
If it were possible, who would wish for constant farewells?
Who wouldn’t want to be always together, always happy, always comfortable?
Unfortunately, many things do not shift according to human will.
Link didn’t want to keep himself hidden anymore, nor did he want to be kept hidden. He didn’t flee from fate but bravely resisted it, and the first step was to part ways.
To part from his wife Jasmine, his daughter Melia, his allies and partners Palo, Serene, Cody, from Dean Frist, from the United Corps, from Ravensmouth College…

“What are you thinking about? You seem so sentimental.”
The voice of Lotson suddenly came from behind Link.
Link turned his head to look at the sudden appearance of the light and shadow, and did not respond aloud.
“You’re keeping secrets? Never mind, I won’t ask,” said the light and shadow of Lotson, glancing at Link meaningfully, then changing the subject, “You can borrow this starship, but don’t damage it. Even if you chip the paint, you will compensate me.”
Link remained silent, keeping his mouth shut without making a sound.
Seeing this, the light and shadow of Lotson didn’t say anything more and disappeared with a snap.
It seemed that he had used the starship owner’s privileges to bypass the controller’s permissions and directly connect to the video communication, just to remind Link not to damage the starship.
But Link knew it was not that simple.
Lotson probably wanted to make sure that Link’s resolve was firm.
“Petty and low.”
After the communication was cut off, Link was silent for a while and finally coldly spat out a word Lotson had used to describe the state of the Ancestor Heavenly Master.
A saying from his past life also entered Link’s mind at this moment.
The world bustles; all is drawn by profit. The world hustles; all is sent on by profit.
It’s all about interests.
What bonds of affection are there?
All is interest!
“Heh…”
With a sneer, Link cleared his mind of the stray thoughts and focused on controlling the starship, navigating towards his destination.
Elsewhere.
Lotson watched the Ancestor Heavenly Master, who sat across from him leisurely sipping tea, and asked indifferently, “So, are you satisfied now?”
“Hmm.”
The Ancestor Heavenly Master nodded frankly, “Everyone is happy, of course, I’m satisfied.”
“Everyone is happy?”
Lotson chuckled scornfully, “You have the nerve to say that?”
“Why not?”
The Ancestor Heavenly Master said matter-of-factly, “The will of the Celestial Court is fulfilled, the interests of the Heavenly Master’s Mansion are preserved, the cooperation between the immortal and wizard civilizations enters the next phase, the Supreme Council’s prestige and profits are unharmed, and the barrier to your return to the Saint Position is cleared. With such a favorable situation, why shouldn’t I say ‘everyone is happy’?”
“What about Mitchell? What about the Ravensmouth College Vanguard? And Link? Are they also ‘everyone is happy’?”
Lotson retorted.
“There is a saying in Buddhism, ‘You reap what you sow.'”
The Ancestor Heavenly Master spoke seriously, “Whether it’s Mitchell or the Ravensmouth College Vanguard, they have simply reaped what they deserved. As for Wizard Link Grande, the Celestial Court and the Heavenly Master’s Mansion have never had ill intentions towards him. On the contrary, it’s the Supreme Council that has been suppressing him.”
“Heh…”
Lotson scoffed, remaining silent in rebuttal.
Because what the Ancestor Heavenly Master said was true.
The ones who had always been pressing down on Link, preventing him from arriving in the parallel universe prematurely, were indeed the Supreme Council of wizard civilization.
Not the immortal civilization’s Celestial Court or the Heavenly Master’s Mansion.
But what the Ancestor Heavenly Master said was only part of the truth.
The Celestial Court and the Heavenly Master’s Mansion of the immortal civilization were actually quite content to see the situation where Link’s growth was suppressed.
In fact, it could be said that the suppression by the Supreme Council was facilitated by the Celestial Court and the Heavenly Master’s Mansion.
As for the reasons why the Celestial Court and the Heavenly Master’s Mansion did this, Lotson didn’t want to guess.
After sneering, Lotson changed the topic and asked, “That beam of light, is it really the main player? Do you have a definite answer yet?”
The beam of light mentioned by Lotson referred to the strange light that, after Mitchell had switched to cultivation and ascended to Celestial Master successfully, arrived abruptly. It bound Mitchell’s fate with a cone of light, making the newly-appointed Celestial Master unable to resist, and compelled him to follow a path laid out by a few Heavenly Immortals/Celestial Masters from the immortal civilization and five Saints from the wizard civilization, becoming a special existence between the two civilizations.
