Chapter 158: We Go Our Separate Ways

Lin Lu’s expression changed instantly, but she forced herself to remain still.

“Do you think I’m foolish enough to come call you abroad without any leverage? With your cold and indifferent nature, you wouldn’t even bother to brush me off.” Lu Xugu looked at her steadily and said with certainty, “Lin Lu, you have no heart.”

At that moment, Lin Lu thought to herself that she still had to find a way to get Xu Yancheng to bring his mother out safely.

...

“No, Young Master saved my child. How could you say the Young Master was rude!” Pei Niang hurriedly explained.

What Lin Xiaojian had started to say earlier became a regret for Ye Guoguo, but also a relief—because if he had actually said what Ye Guoguo wanted to hear, she wouldn’t have known how to face it.

“She’s been down there so long without coming up for air. Don’t you find that strange?” Princess Minglan tried to hold her breath on the shore but couldn’t last long.

Though he didn’t understand what it was, it must be something extraordinary to cause such anxiety and concern even among the Octopus Starfish Clan.

Lin Xiaojian was about to help her when, at that moment, a checkered umbrella suddenly appeared before him, blocking his view.

In the distance, Ye Guchen, binoculars in hand, recognized the face of that person—it was Mo Feifan. Ye Guchen was stunned.

Bathing in this place, Xin Xue laughed wildly, swallowing the blood that spilled into her mouth.

“Ha! Go wild, Blood Corpse Demon Realm!” Nearby, after seizing the Immortal Slayer from the Sky Dragon Star, Xingtian, clad in purple armor, fought fiercely with two old monks in crimson-yellow robes, their faces gaunt and white eyebrows fluttering. With a loud roar, he laughed heartily.

Resigned, Liu the Steward picked up a potato. Since the master could do this, what complaint could a servant have? He worked hard peeling the potato—peeling more meant less work for himself.

Xu Qing found it somewhat incredible. At least for the moment, he couldn’t think of what to do and was very curious about the matter, looking forward more and more to tomorrow’s meeting.

Unexpectedly, Chen Meihua was so anxious as to call Mu Jing over. Mu Xinwei’s heart sank slightly, suddenly realizing that this wedding might be impossible to cancel.

The clamor, coldness, eeriness, and endless clashes of armored stomachs echoed through every corner of the domain, filled with violent hostility.

It was only because their leader belonged to the chaotic faction that the elemental beings were also classified as part of the chaotic world.

Seeing Dog Brother suddenly return home, He Hua was both surprised and delighted, rushing into her husband’s embrace.

A pale yellow dress, cinched at the slender waist with a three-finger-wide leather belt, long hair flowing down, she bowed her head softly crying. Her disheveled hair covered her face but revealed a section of snow-white, delicate neck. Her chest was clearly beginning to develop—not large, but already pleasing to the eye.

Every time she asked about the power of the Immortal Slayer Sword Formation, the answer came in tiny increments—“billions” here and there—utterly disappointing.

Not only the Supreme Taoist, but even the Primordial Supreme, and others, all had Great Saints watching closely, standing beyond the barrier, constantly attempting to break the sealed blood technique—but all in vain.

Interestingly, the Primordial Divine King Seal formed by Chen Yuan bore a strange resemblance to the Primordial Universe Diagram derived from it.

He had never thought about holding anyone’s hand for a lifetime before, but now he wanted to hold her hand forever, growing old together.

In no time, I had already completed my cultivation, and my spiritual power had increased significantly. I was very pleased. I hadn’t expected that whenever I pushed myself to the limit, my spiritual power would recover so much. However, with my current spiritual power, it’s still difficult to expend much.

Perhaps it’s unfair—unfair to family, unfair to loved ones, and even more unfair to oneself—but some responsibilities, once taken on, cannot be cast off for a lifetime. Love is undoubtedly important, important enough to sacrifice one’s life for, but when it comes to the greater cause of family and country, they would be willing to give everything in exchange.
