Chapter 6272: Refusal Violet Dragon sighed but could understand since Gao Yang’s group had toiled so hard in history. They upheld the banner before the formation of Life and Death Heaven and the rise of Desolate Ancestor. After the ambush on the three immortals, this world was on the verge of falling into Supreme Heaven’s reign. Gao Yang’s group fought and gave others a place of hope. High Sun Pavilion and Ancient Society paid a heavy price for this. Trust aside, Lord of Life and Death and Desolate Ancestor still had worries and skepticism. However, they didn’t want to influence Gao Yang’s decision. These were ancient progenitors while they were relatively newcomers, not to mention outsiders. Although Desolate Ancestor surpassed them later, this didn’t change the past. They found themselves in a delicate position, unable to change Gao Yang’s trust in Bao Pu and Luminous Master. “Did you get an answer?” Violet Dragon asked despite knowing the answer from the previous conversation. “We followed the clues given to us by Desolate Ancestor, leading us to Supreme Heaven and finding a name, Luminous Master. This naturally worried us.” Li Xuansu said. “Could you elaborate on the change in the man?” Violet Dragon asked. “The so-called Primal Yin Immortal Ghost represents Evil Transformation and Fiendish Ground.” Li Xuansu said. “A direct disciple of the two immortals? Just like Xian Chengtian.” Violet Dragon took a deep breath. “Not quite, Xian Chengtian was taught by three masters of the redemption grounds. When we came across Luminous Master, or Primal Yin Immortal Ghost, we found something strange about his state of mind, he seemed to be possessed.” Li Xuansu said. “Why would they do that?” Violet Dragon asked because these two beings were legendary immortals from the previous epoch. “They were shackled, preventing them from active participation. Thus, they need a powerful figure to act on their behalf.” Li Qiye said. “Yes, like Xian Chengtian but he ended up betraying them. The two remaining redemption grounds wanted to do something similar without the betrayal, hence the takeover.” Li Xuansu said. “Takeover or possession aren’t the right terms here.” Li Qiye shook his head: “The limitations imposed on them are more than you can imagine. If they could possess bodies, they would have done so long ago. There are requirements such as willingness and most importantly, a candidate who can endure their thoughts. If they could have found someone, they wouldn’t have trained Xian Chengtian.” “Luminous Master willingly offered himself?” Violet Dragon had a bad feeling about this. “That’s hard to say and can’t be verified now, but when we fought, his power belonged to one of the two redemption grounds. Limited, but still potent.” Li Xuansu said. “More questions arise if he was willing.” Violet Dragon said. “Indeed, from the very beginning.” Li Xuansu said. “I rarely interacted with the ancient progenitors, but as far as I know, the next candidate for High Sun Pavilion was not Luminous Master.” Violet Dragon said. “Yes, unlike the rumors. Emperor Zheng before his extinguishment proposed Orchid Sage. No one had an issue with it.” Li Xuansu said. “Why did it become Luminous Master later?” Violet Dragon asked. “I was there then.” Li Xuansu sighed: “Emperor Zheng knew of the potential risk and discussed the best candidate to become a supreme overlord. If not an overlord, at least a leader for the ancient branch. Orchid Sage had both talent and virtues, and another reason, his possession of Idyllic Flute.” “One of the three immortal artifacts.” Violet Dragon said: “So many things going right for him.” No member rejected this since Orchid Sage was just as virtuous as Emperor Zheng. They thought he could become a supreme overlord just like Supreme Black Ancestor, the current owner of Firebringer Hatchet. “Yet Luminous Master became the public candidate.” Violet Dragon said. “Because Orchid Sage refused and nominated Luminous Master. Gao Yang had a high evaluation of the latter as well.” Li Xuansu shook her head. “He refused.” Violet Dragon was surprised to see this. How many progenitors would have done the same thing? This was a direct path to the supreme overlord level. Although cultivation was a personal matter, having the full support of High Sun Pavilion and supreme overlords reduced the difficulties. “I wonder why he refused.” She added. “I don’t know, but they had to pick Luminous Master afterward.” Li Xuansu said. “The best second choice.” Violet Dragon said.
