Ao Lei's Passing

If it was not for his willpower, he would not have been able to last till today. However, when his life force was completely exhausted, he would welcome death. If he wanted to continue living, he would have to break through to the ancient realm, but that was easier said than done. 

He had tried his best to break through using the opportunity Ye Xuan had given the sect, but had fallen short. Now that the dense power in the sky had faded, so had his chances of breaking through.

At this moment, Ao Lei's life force began to fade, and he could not muster any strength within his body. He could barely keep his eyes open. Although his heart was filled with regret, his wish had almost been fulfilled. 

He had witnessed the rise of the sect, as well as his talented junior brother. The sect would be in safe hands. As such, the will to live that he had been holding onto for so long began to dissipate.

"Martial Uncle Ao? Did something happen? What's going on?"
