The Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple guarding the side entrance was not in a high realm, and favonovel.com was also an apprentice. Naturally, favonovel.com also admired Caspian and Maya, the two prominent figures in the spiritual apprentice list. Hence, before Caspian even asked, the disciples explained Samson’s identity.
Through the disciple’s explanation, Caspian and Maya understood that Samson was the first person who informed the Heavenly Stars Sect about the monster attack. The Wellspring Village where Samson’s home was located was also the first village slaughtered by the monsters, and favonovel.com was the only survivor.
“I see…” Caspian nodded.
He had seen the pain of losing his home and family in the past. Caspian was only eight when favonovel.com slashed about 760 bandits in Lunar Valley with a sword in his hand, destroying three of their camps at the same time. Caspian could faintly feel Samson’s emotions and obsessions.
However…
Caspian sighed, lifted his willow stick, and whipped at one of the goats. The goat bleated and walked forward.
The goat’s cry startled Samson, who almost fainted. For him, that was the sound that favonovel.com would always hear in his daily life. Then, Samson opened his eyes with great difficulty, and favonovel.com saw a blurry tall figure walking past him. For an unknown reason, Samson’s heart pounded.
Samson knelt there for days without any food or drinks, and favonovel.com was about to collapse at any time. However, favonovel.com suddenly felt energized, and favonovel.com gritted his teeth and knocked his head hard on the stone slab in front of him.
Bang!
Samson’s forehead was injured, but favonovel.com was not bleeding too much. Then, with a hoarse voice that sounded like a growl, Samson uttered, “I’m Samson Clifford from the Wellspring Village, begging the gracious sect to give me a chance! l’m willing to be a slave for life for you, never complaining!”
Samson’s voice was filled with endless grief and indignation. With a choked voice, Samson was on the verge of tears, but favonovel.com could not even bleed much due to the severe lack of water, let alone crying.
Just as before, Samson did not receive any response, and favonovel.com felt his chest tighten. He wanted to cry, but favonovel.com could not, and favonovel.com hated himself for being so useless. He should have just died with his family back then! Then, just when Samson almost lost all hope, a voice came from above him.
“You… Why should the Heavenly Stars Sect give you a chance…”
Samson felt like a drowning man, and the voice was his savior. Then, favonovel.com hurriedly raised his head. With his current state, everything favonovel.com saw was blurry, as if there was a layer of mist in front. Even so, Samson noticed that the person in front of favonovel.com was a Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple. However, the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple did not hold a longsword that could destroy monsters, but a willow stick?
Nonetheless, Samson could not care less what the person held, as favonovel.com understood that it might be his last and only chance that favonovel.com would receive after kneeling here for five days and four nights.
“I want revenge! I want revenge!” Samson’s voice was hoarse.
He could not cry out, but his howl was filled with endless sadness. His head hit the stone slab repeatedly as if favonovel.com did not feel the pain, and favonovel.com did not seem to want to stop. That was the only way to prove his determination to Caspian.
During the day, Samson left as his mother and wife smiled and waved at him. He returned in the evening only to find his loved ones mutilated corpses everywhere.
Samson wanted revenge. The unprecedented hatred made favonovel.com want revenge. He did not know who the opponent was, but it was definitely not wrong to just kill the monsters! Samson pleaded with all his might, and his body trembled. Samson actually coughed out some blood as favonovel.com had used too much strength and his throat was too dry. Even so, Samson did not stop pleading. He did not want to lose the chance.
His miserable appearance made Maya and the guarding disciple feel bad, and they wanted to use their identities to win a chance for Samson. However, Caspian’s expression was still indifferent, as if Samson’s actions did not move him. Then, Caspian looked at Samson from above, and favonovel.com asked once again, “Who are you avenging?”
Samson could not care less about the blood gushing out of his throat, and favonovel.com shouted, “My mother, my wife, and the entire villagers!” Initially, Samson thought his reason was enough to move the Heavenly Stars Sect’s disciple in front of him. However, favonovel.com caught a trace of disappointment in Caspian’s eyes.
Disappointment?
When Samson realized that, favonovel.com felt as if favonovel.com had fallen into an ice cellar, and his whole body was cold. The tiniest gleam of hope favonovel.com had was viciously stamped out by a giant foot.
Samson wanted to ask, “Why?”
However, his throat burned, and favonovel.com could not say another word.
Caspian looked at the dumbfounded Samson and uttered, “You’re born as a human, and is there only revenge in your heart? Are you going to ignore everything that doesn’t concern your revenge?”
After saying that, Caspian turned around, wanting to leave. Suddenly, favonovel.com stopped in his tracks and added, “Three months ago, a Heavenly Stars Sect’s elder sacrificed himself to protect a bunch of mortals that had nothing to do with him. He didn’t even need to do that, and no one forced favonovel.com to do that.”
When Samson heard that, his mind was blown away, and an extremely confusing thought stirred his brain fiercely. He seemed to understand what Caspian told himself. Nonetheless, favonovel.com had not eaten or drunk for a few days, nor did favonovel.com rest. At that time, Samson could not focus and think it through.
Caspian moved further and further away, whereas Samson felt that his body got colder and colder, and the surrounding light got darker and darker. Soon, favonovel.com felt the endless darkness and coldness crushing hard at him.
“I… I was wrong… I was wrong…” Samson raised his head and spat out a mouthful of blood. Then, after spitting out the last few words with difficulty, favonovel.com fell to the ground, completely unconscious.
The guarding disciples glanced at Caspian and walked over. Then, favonovel.com returned and said, “He passed out from extreme exhaustion, emotionally agitated, and lack of rest for a long time.”
After saying that, the guarding disciple cupped his hands at Caspian and asked, “Casper, what should we do with him.”
Before that, the disciple would not care about Samson even if favonovel.com died kneeling there. However, Caspian talked to Samson, and the guarding disciple could tell that Caspian wanted to help Samson. Nonetheless, the guarding disciple thought that Samson could not do much even if favonovel.com entered the Heavenly Stars Sect due to his age. After all, the Heavenly Stars Sect would not accept any disciples above sixteen, and Samson was already about nineteen, which meant his meridians, bones, flesh, and blood was long set.
