Return of the War God

Chapter 2020: Ba Lao's Identity

"Old Ba, are you... a disciple of Kaiyang?"

Ye Wuque's mind was filled with thoughts and he said this.

In the soul space, Old Ba surprisingly did not respond to Ye Wuque's question. His true body just sat there quietly, motionless. The cold eyes under the black iron mask were filled with complex and long-lasting memories, as if they had touched the past deep in his memory, and the scenes were replayed in his mind.

Ye Wuque, who said this, immediately felt something was wrong.

"No! With the knowledge and strength shown by Old Ba, it is absolutely impossible that he is just a disciple of Kaiyang! Kaiyangzi... Kaiyangzi..."

Ye Wuque began to repeat these three words. He keenly felt that the three words "Kaiyangzi" might represent something more profound.

While thinking, Ye Wuque subconsciously looked at the six deacons opposite him.

Feeling Ye Wuque's gaze, the six deacons all looked over with burning eyes, praying in their hearts, but there was no sign of anxiety on their faces, but they chose to wait patiently.

As long as the young man in front of them can make a choice, it doesn't matter how long it takes!

However, when Ye Wuque's eyes subconsciously fell on the six deacons, his mind suddenly seemed to be flashed by lightning, and it lit up all of a sudden!

He remembered a piece of news that the six deacons had just revealed when they were arguing for him!

At that moment, Ye Wuque directly and politely said: "Six deacons, may I ask how the first master of the seven veins of the true transmission you just mentioned is called outside the sect?"

Ye Wuque's sudden question immediately made the six deacons slightly stunned. No one expected Ye Wuque to ask such a question.

But immediately, the six deacons thought that Ye Wuque was asking questions here because he admired the first master, and they all rushed to answer. In the end, it was the oldest five soul deacon who spoke first.

"Young man Ye, the chief of our Beidou Daoji Sect is a peerless master who is famous throughout the Beidou Star Region. His reputation has even spread to other stars. He is also the foundation and qualification that ensures that our Beidou Daoji Sect can be called the number one sect in Beidou!"

"And the chiefs temporarily give up their own names from the day they become the chiefs of a lineage, and inherit the exclusive name of the chief!"

"The exclusive name is a prefix of the name of the lineage to which each chief belongs, plus a respectful title of 'Zi'. For example, in the Tianquan lineage where I belong, the chief of our lineage is respectfully called... Tianquan Zi!"

"Although the chiefs will change with the passage of time, this respectful title will continue to be passed down with each generation of chiefs, representing the eternal glory of our Beidou Daoji Sect!"

When the Five Souls Deacon said this, a look of glory and pride appeared on his face!

Not only the Five Souls Deacon, but the other five deacons, including Elder Song Songgu, all showed the same expression, which was a kind of awe and respect from the heart!

In the entire Beidou Daoji Sect, the seven great masters are well-deserved legends, only below the legend of Daoji Sect Master!

After hearing the words of the Five Souls Deacon, Ye Wuque was shocked and his pupils shrank slightly!

It was indeed so!

He was really right in his flash of inspiration!

"So this is your past identity, Ba Lao, one of the seven great masters of Beidou Daoji Sect... Kaiyangzi!"

Why would Ba Lao let him travel thousands of miles to Beidou Daoji Sect?

Why did Ba Lao know Beidou Daoji Sect so well, and even let him worship Beidou Daoji Sect?

Why did the Beidou Juxin Order come from Ba Lao's hand?

In an instant, Ye Wuque completely understood it all!

Immediately, Ye Wuque's heart was overwhelmed by endless amazement!

One of the seven great masters of Beidou Daoji Sect!

A peerless master who traverses the starry sky, only such a title can match the identity of Ba Lao, an old demon!

"I promised you that I would tell you everything after you ascended to the eighth level, and now the time has come."

"To be precise, I should be the Kaiyangzi of the previous generation. I was plotted against by that evil obstacle and fell into the space crack and accidentally fell into the Canglan Realm, where I sat for a full ten thousand years!"

"Ten thousand years, in the eyes of many people, I may have fallen unexpectedly."

"And since I disappeared, the name of Kaiyangzi no longer belongs to me, and a new Kaiyangzi will be born in the Kaiyang lineage."

"Time passes, and a new generation replaces the old..."

In the soul space, Ba Lao's voice finally sounded, but there was no coldness and silence in it, only a touch of vicissitudes and emotion.

Ye Wuque did not speak at this moment, he just listened to Ba Lao's words quietly, and finally understood why he suddenly stopped using the name Kaiyangzi after reaching an agreement with Ba Lao.

"Old Ba, don't you think the Kaiyang lineage seems a little strange now? The external deacons of the other six lines all showed up, but the external deacon of the Kaiyang lineage was missing, and no one here mentioned it, not even Elder Songgu!"

With a slight flicker in his eyes, Ye Wuque spoke out the doubt that had long existed in his heart.

And his words seemed to pull Old Ba back from his recollections and sighs, and his eyes under the mask returned to their coldness, also flickering slightly!

"Hearing what you said, I'm afraid something did happen. After all, a full 10,000 years have passed, enough time for anything to happen."

"Just now, the kid named Nangong Wang said that the leader of the seven veins is the Tianshu vein. Humph! Ten thousand years ago, the leader of the seven veins was the Kaiyang vein from beginning to end!"

"But no matter what happened, the Kaiyang vein is your best place to ascend, because the great opportunity and great fortune that I promised to give you were hidden by me in the Kaiyang Star in the eighth realm. No one can find it except me, and only those who practice the skills of the Kaiyang vein can open it!"

"As for the mysterious ancient text engraved on the golden token you got, the disciples of the seven veins have the opportunity to access it."

Ba Lao's words made Ye Wuque nod slightly, and he also made clear his choice in his heart.

With Ba Lao here, plus the previous agreement, Ye Wuque will naturally only choose the Kaiyang vein.

However, before that, it is better to figure out what happened to the Kaiyang vein.

With this in mind, Ye Wuque no longer hesitated, and his eyes raised again, first looking at Elder Songgu, and then looking at the six deacons opposite!

Seeing Ye Wuque's gaze again, the eyes of the six deacons suddenly lit up!

Deacon Baihe said cautiously: "Young man Ye, have you made your choice? I wonder which branch of the seven true branches you choose to join?"

The other five deacons stared at Ye Wuque without blinking, and so did Elder Songgu, waiting for Ye Wuque's answer.

Upon hearing this, Ye Wuque first clasped his hands and bowed deeply to the six deacons, and then he said solemnly: "Thank you for your kindness and promotion, the disciple is grateful!"

"But the disciple chose the Kaiyang branch among the seven true branches!"

As soon as these words came out, the six deacons were stunned at first, and the five soul deacons and the white crane deacon even thought they had heard it wrong, showing a little confusion, but then the six deacons suddenly changed!

"Young man Ye, what did you say? You said you wanted to join the Kaiyang lineage? Did I hear you right?"

Deacon Dayan couldn't help but shout out first, with an unbelievable tone in his voice, as if he had seen a ghost in broad daylight!

"Yes! Young man Ye, all six of us are here, you can choose any lineage, but why did you choose the Kaiyang lineage? The Kaiyang lineage is now..."

Deacon Baihe spoke up next, his tone full of confusion!

"Young man Ye, you are a Seven-star disciple, so naturally you have no idea about the Seven True Lineages of the Eighth Realm. If you have a sense of mystery and expectation because the external deacon of the Kaiyang lineage did not show up, then you must not act on impulse, because you guessed wrong."

Deacon Yufeng could not help but say this, and then he paused before continuing: "Young man Ye, for your future, some things must be explained to you clearly, and then you can choose."

Deacon Yufeng used voice transmission to say the second half of this sentence. Except for the other five deacons, Ye Wuque and Elder Songgu, the countless Seven-star disciples in the world could not hear it at all.

Obviously, what Deacon Yufeng was going to say next was a secret.
