Bab 360: The Patriarch Accepts a Disciple

"I…" The giant yellow bear looked at the Patriarch.

"He died. He died long ago. He died within that tribulation." The Patriarch shook his head. "Given Threelives' temperament, if he was still alive, how could he not come back for you? How could he have let you drift through countless ages by yourself? Little bear, you clearly knew the truth…you just weren't willing to believe it."

Drip! Drip!

One teardrop after another fell onto the ground. The giant yellow bear's kneeling body was shaking. He let out an agonized moan. "Nnnrragh…"

The agonized cry caused Ning's own heart to feel sour as well.

"Master…master…master…" The giant yellow bear raised his head, howling madly. Daoist Threelives was like his father. Only a long time later did the kneeling bear say, "Forgive this little bear for his earlier outburst."

"Alright," the Patriarch said, "You can go back to the Starseizing Manor. You cannot break away from the Starseizing Manor for now."
