Chapter 99: How About… You Apologize to Your Aunt Liu and Uncle Liu?

A pitch-black warship traversed through space.

Behind this massive vessel was a series of dark specks, causing the entire land to tremble. The living beings looked up, seeing only darkness stretching across the sky.

Gradually, the dark specks enlarged.

They were giant ships, identical to the one before.

On one of these ships.

Norlan Wudao stood with his hands behind his back, his expression indifferent, contemplating.

When he returned to the Foreign Realm and informed his father of the events he encountered in the Eastern Wasteland Ancient Continent.

The Norlan Imperial Clan was shocked!

A monstrous genius had appeared among the humans, yet when the Norlan Ancestor learned of it, he paid no heed.

Until the relics of Emperor Wu Shi surfaced, the immortals of the Foreign Realm could no longer wait!

***

Northern Region.

In a desolate ancient forest.

Ling Feng walked like a zombie, not knowing how long he had been walking.

His face was extremely pale.

Within him, the power of the Great Desolate Sacred Body that had not yet been fully digested began to show signs of loosening.

Inside the ring, the old man watched helplessly with his hands behind his back.

He had said everything he could, but it was of no use.

Now, he could only wait for Ling Feng to figure it out himself.

Break and then stand!

Ling Feng, my disciple, I believe in you!

***

A thousand miles away from him.

This space was originally peaceful, with an ancient fire mulberry tree…

Suddenly!

The temperature soared, and the void twisted.

*Crack!*

*Crack!*

The void shattered, and a red figure slowly stepped out.

It was a young girl, about fifteen or sixteen years old, with her hands behind her back, stepping through the universe, wearing a fiery long dress, exuding an imperial aura between her brows.

Her entire being was surrounded by a dense immortal light, surpassing the limits of what the mortal world could possess.

Her eyes always carried a trace of inexplicable longing.

The next moment.

The girl’s figure disappeared, reappearing beneath the fire mulberry tree.

A fragrant scent wafted through the air, petals danced, each crystalline like a rain of light, falling across the sky—those were fire mulberry flowers!

She stared intently at the tree, looking at the flowers, filled with confusion and longing.

*Crack!*

Another figure stepped out.

This time, it was an adult woman, tall and stunningly beautiful, with blue eyes and an aura of immortal majesty.

When she appeared, it was as if the entire world bowed to her.

Such a proud woman, yet she walked respectfully behind the young girl.

She looked at the girl’s expression, feeling helpless.

Every century, when this fire mulberry tree bloomed, the girl would break through the realm and descend to the mortal world.

Then she would stand there, waiting until all the fire mulberry flowers had fallen before leaving.

It had been this way for ten thousand years.

“Princess,” the woman spoke softly, respectfully.

“I know what you want to ask.”

“I don’t understand why I do this either, but I can’t help wanting to come here, to guard this fire mulberry tree!”

“It’s as if someone very important is waiting for me here… or wants me to wait for him here…”

The woman was astonished!

This was the first time in three thousand years of following the princess that she had heard her speak so much at once.

The young girl before her was none other than Yan Ling’er, the long princess of the Great Flame Immortal Dynasty, renowned throughout the Immortal Realm!

A prodigy who was unmatched even against the three-crowned kings of the Immortal Realm.

And she, the woman, was the ruler of one of the countless small worlds under the Great Flame Immortal Dynasty.

Her name was Leng Ningshuang.

She was a heavenly fox who had cultivated for ten thousand years, successfully proving the Dao and stepping into the True Immortal Realm.

This time, descending to the lower realm, she was not only here to protect the princess but also had a mission.

First, to find the inheritor of Emperor Wu Shi and ascertain if they bore the surname Lin, and if so, to bring them back to the Great Flame immediately.

Second, to investigate whether the remnants of the Great Lin Immortal Dynasty still existed.

When the relics of Emperor Wu Shi emerged in the lower realm, the entire Immortal Realm was shaken.

It wouldn’t be long before many would descend to the lower realm…

Yan Ling’er stared at the floating fire mulberry flowers, slowly reaching out her jade hand to catch one, her black hair dancing in the wind, her fiery dress swaying—a breathtaking scene!

“Who am I waiting for…”

Her eyes revealed longing, though she didn’t know who she longed for.

At this moment.

Leng Ningshuang frowned, the void shattered.

She reached out and grabbed within it.

***

A thousand miles away.

Ling Feng continued walking, the resentment in his heart growing stronger, the images becoming more vivid.

All of this was supposed to be his!

But it was all taken by that person!

Even Liu Goddess abandoned him!

His Dao heart showed signs of cracking, covered by a layer of black mist.

His aura grew colder.

Inside the ring, the old man was anxious.

If this continued, Ling Feng would be beyond saving.

But he couldn’t contact the Supreme Hall now.

“What to do… what to do… I finally found a successor with such heaven-defying fortune, he can’t just die like this!”

He still couldn’t think of a solution, only sighing helplessly.

“Sigh, perhaps this is his tribulation. Only through great fortune and great tribulation can one prove the Dao and achieve eternity!”

“If he can’t overcome it, then I misjudged him. But it shouldn’t be… He’s a human Sacred Body, born to face tribulations, how could he fall into darkness so easily?”

At this moment.

Space froze.

The void suddenly had a massive crack, and a giant hand formed by the laws of the Great Dao grabbed Ling Feng.

Old Man: “???”

What’s happening!

Damn!

Immortal might, this is immortal might!

Since when did the Three Thousand Continents have immortals everywhere!

“Disciple, quick!”

“Quick, call your Aunt Liu!”

“Apologize to your Uncle Liu.”

“This is something we can’t contend with!”

However, Ling Feng was like a puddle of mud, offering no resistance, his eyes vacant, ignoring the old man’s voice in his mind.

The next second.

When he reappeared, the scene before him had changed dramatically.

Under an ancient fire mulberry tree stood a boy of unparalleled beauty, surrounded by fire mulberry flowers.

Behind him was a woman in a light blue gown, her expression cold as ice.

Her indifferent blue eyes gazed at him, high above, as if looking at an ant on the ground.

“Princess, this ant has already half-stepped into darkness, should we…”

Leng Ningshuang spoke respectfully, not caring if Ling Feng heard her from afar.

If she were alone, she wouldn’t have bothered with such trouble and would have slapped Ling Feng to death.

Darkness!

It was what she hated most in her life!

But with Yan Ling’er present, she had to seek her approval before doing anything; she dared not act on her own.

“Hiss… Disciple, no, quickly call your Aunt Liu over, or it’ll be too late!”

The old man inside the ring gasped.

Even inside the ring, he could feel the terrifying pressure.

This was not something a mortal could possess!

Ling Feng remained motionless, his eyes hollow.

Under the fire mulberry tree.

Yan Ling’er slowly turned around, her gaze falling on him, her brows slightly furrowed.

Just for a moment.

She seemed to remember something.

“Ling Feng?”

Her voice was like the sound of heaven, echoing in the air.
