[END] Will Eternal

Chapter 843: The Selestial Hair

Bai Xiaochun was not the only one stunned. Bai Hao sat there inside his soul-stacking pagoda, his jaw hanging open and his mind spinning.

The sudden dramatic events were almost too much to take. During the dramatic battle, Bai Hao did not dare to go out into the open. After returning to the Underworld River, he carefully peered into the world, listened to the gravekeeper and even felt happy that his Master would become the Hell-Emperor.

He could never have imagined that the gravekeeper would suddenly catch him.

Worried that Bai Xiaochun might misunderstand the situation, he anxiously said, "Senior, sir ... You must have made a mistake, I–"

From the side, Bai Xiaochun looked, stunned. Actually, he's not happy at all. In fact, there was only one thing he thought about. “My disciple will be the next Hell-Emperor? Heaven, did this really happen …? If my disciple becomes the next Emperor of Hell, then no one in the Wildlands will dare to provoke me !! ”

He felt very excited about all this. Clearly, no one dared to cause trouble for him from now on. If they did, he could have his disciple wave his hand and crush them! He would basically be invincible ….

“Nine Words King? Grand Heavenmaster? Chen Haosong's? Who would dare to provoke me? Who would dare look at me!?! ” Very happy, he slapped his thigh, threw his head back and laughed out loud.

"Great!" he said it out loud. “You have made an excellent choice, Great-grandfather. This apprentice of mine is perfect for being an Hell-Emperor! In fact, no one in the Wildlands was more suited! ” Seeing that Bai Hao was about to jump up and say something, Bai Xiaochun waved his hand indifferently like a Master.

"As your Master, Bai Hao, I will represent you to accept the offer. It's set! "

A profound radiance could be seen in the gravekeeper's eyes as he looked at Bai Xiaochun and then Bai Hao. No one will be able to guess the gravekeeper's plan beforehand. The truth was that he had never considered Bai Xiaochun as a potential successor. Moreover, Bai Hao was only one of the few he had watched!

For example, there was Zhou Yixing, and the soul of the Luochen Clan chose that Bai Xiaochun had killed. And there are others …. He had many candidates, including the people in the Hell-Emperor Stele. However, the reason that Bai Hao rose from among all the candidates to become the official successor was less his relationship with the gravekeeper and more his relationship with!

The truth was that Bai Xiaochun was more important to the gravekeeper than anyone else on the candidate list. Of course, the gravekeeper did not want him to become the Hell-Emperor. He had a more important mission in mind for Bai Xiaochun ….

It was for this reason that Bai Xiaochun met Bai Hao when he was teleported to the Wildlands. Just then, when Bai Xiaochun had departed, the gravekeeper appeared, with an extremely deep look in his eyes.

It was also for this reason that Bai Xiaochun finally found Bai Hao's soul in the Necromancer Kettle ….

Gravekeeper wanted Bai Hao and Bai Xiaochun to meet, and to make it happen, he had interfered behind the scenes several times. Although Bai Xiaochun had been suspicious about certain things for many years, the clues were too vague for him to come to a conclusion.

Of course, even the gravekeeper could not anticipate that Bai Xiaochun and Bai Hao would become apprentices and Teachers, would accomplish so many things, and would develop deep feelings for each other. All the gravekeepers do is make sure that they meet. And if Bai Hao could get Bai Xiaochun's approval ..well, he would be the chosen successor!

If he can't do that, then the gravekeeper won't hesitate to throw it away and pick another candidate. He would then make sure that the next candidate met Bai Xiaochun and got to know him. And he would continue to do that until he found a replacement that Bai Xiaochun approved.

In fact, as far as he was concerned, Bai Xiaochun's approval was the only major requirement to become his successor!

Of course, he did not explain that to Bai Xiaochun. After looking closely at Bai Hao and Bai Xiaochun, he turned his attention to Bai Hao, to whom he spoke with a voice that seemed to reverberate out from the ancient times.

"Bai Hao, are you willing to be my replacement?"

Looking extremely nervous, Bai Hao looked at Bai Xiaochun. "Master…."

Bai Hao hesitated for a moment, mixed emotions in his eyes as he looked at his Master. The truth was that he did not care much about the position that should be the successor of the Emperor of Hell. What she was more worried about was the loss of happiness she felt from being able to accompany her Master.

His master was the only family, and the only person he really liked. That relationship was the most important thing in his entire life.

However, he also realized that his Master had offended too many people in the Wildlands. By becoming the Hell-Emperor, he could ensure that no one dared to cause trouble for his Master.

After reaching the conclusion that this was definitely the best way to look at the matter, he gritted his teeth and looked back at the gravekeeper.

“Senior, I'm willing to be your replacement. However, Mr. .. I cannot see you as my Master. For eternity, I will only have one Master !! ” Both his voice and his eyes are filled with determination. He was willing to become the next Emperor of Hell so that he could protect his master, but that did not mean that he could change his loyalty.

Bai Xiaochun was shocked to hear Bai Hao's words, and his gaze became softer as he looked at his disciple. However, he knew his students well, and understood how important Bai Hao was to view their Master-student relationship.

Although there was no visible expression on the gravekeeper's face, he smiled inside. The truth was that regardless of what he knew about Bai Hao, he was still not really sure that he was the perfect person to become the next Hell-Emperor. After all, it was a very important position. Therefore, he still did some tests.

However, Bai Hao's answer was very much in line with what the gravekeeper was looking for. There was no false feeling in it, and it caused the gravekeeper to become more satisfied.

"Good!" said the gravekeeper, nodding. Although Bai Hao had many questions, the gravekeeper did not give him the opportunity to ask. He waved his hand, causing a streak of red light to fly towards Bai Xiaochun.

Bai Xiaochun's eyes widened as he reflexively grabbed to catch .. a bundle of blood-colored hair !!

Once out in the open, a powerful rumbling sound filled the heaven and earth. The sky dimmed, and a whirlwind appeared around Bai Xiaochun!

It seemed as if the hair was trying to break away from his grasp, prompting him to quickly grasp his hand to hold it. When he did, he was certain that he could sense something howling, and even detect the dramatic vibrations of life force from within.

Gravekeeper eyes sparkling. He waved his sleeve, and the howling stopped. An invisible seal had been placed on a bundle of hair, making it impossible to escape, even if it had more life force than it already had. All one could do was lie there gently in Bai Xiaochun's palm!

The sheer brush with life force inside the hair caused Bai Xiaochun's entire body to wriggle. Of course, he recognized this hair. It was ... the same blood hair he saw in Heaven!

"The power of life in that hair should push your Back Bone to the top. Think of it as a lucky gift to you! ” Gravekeeper then brought Bai Hao with him as he stepped towards the Underworld River. Water surged as they entered, and then they floated off into the distance until they left.

The Underworld River slowly faded away, showing a dry riverbed. Everything in the area was completely silent ….

Bai Xiaochun was alone on the bank of the dried river, holding onto the blood-red hair, looking in the direction his disciple had just walked in.

Everything happened so fast. Although Bai Xiaochun was not interested in becoming an Hell-Emperor, he really hoped that his disciple would succeed. However, for Bai Hao to leave so suddenly made him feel a little lonely and disappointed.

"When baby eagles grow up, they must leave the nest at last, and fly high in the sky …." He sighed, reminding himself that at least he had become someone very important because of everything that had happened. "Nobody is stronger than me in the Wildlands now …. My Daoist counterpart is a god, my father is a god, and my disciple is the Hell-Emperor! Even the Grand Heavenmaster cannot match me! "

When he thought about it this way, his heart began to race with excitement.
