In the same year that Du Youqian broke through to the Golden Core Middle Stage, Meng Xiao passed away.
He was unwilling to use the array Du Youqian had set up, which could have preserved his soul.
He didn't even want to reincarnate.
When the signs of the Celestial Five Declines appeared and he was on the verge of death, Du Youqian finally came to see him and admitted that he had undergone Possession.
Possession, of course. He could never admit to being a Reincarnation Cultivator.
Meng Xiao was not surprised in the slightest. A knowing smile appeared on his withered, aged face. "My lord, you've kept this from me for so long."
"I haven't been your lord for a long time. The term of your oath has long since expired."
"An oath may expire, but how can loyalty have a term?" The weakened Meng Xiao's voice lacked its usual strength, and his body gave off a foul odor, like rotting plants.
To the sensitive nose of a Core Formation Master, the stench was simply overpowering.
