Chapter 345: Cai Luli
Chapter 345: Cai Luli
Once Jian Shen left, everyone there sighed in relief while everyone inside the Divine Realm also felt as if they had just evaded a huge disaster after the world regained its peace.
The impact of what he did however didn't go anywhere.
Within a few minutes since Jian Shen used his Dragon arm to suppress an entire Realm, every major and minor force immediately sent out their members to find out what had happened, and who it was that caused this.
And this information wasn't to just satisfy their curiosity or to try and make him join their force, instead, it was to make sure that they didn't offend whoever the monster was by mistake either.
At the same time though, there was no shortage in the number of beings who wanted to establish a close relationship with the mysterious expert by any means possible.
"Sigh... "
Sighing loudly as he looked at his son who had lost his mind, the old man was sure that there was no way he'd ever regain his mental stability.
After all, it was his will to live which had been crushed after seeing Jian Shen show his true power.
Still, not all was lost.
With the Dong Clan still existing, as long as he left this city and established it in some other Region, his bloodline was bound to continue existing.
With such thoughts, the Dong Clan which had been deeply rooted inside the Lee City disappeared by the morning of the next day.
Not to the surprise of anyone though.
Just one look towards that vast cavern in space above the location where the Dong Clan used to exist was enough to strike fear into the hearts of even the bravest of men.
Usually, when someone uses too much strength and ends up destroying the space around them, after a while when the commotion dies down, the Intents of Heaven and Earth would naturally repair the space and turn the place back normal.
What Jian Shen left behind with a single swipe of his arm though, showed zero signs of ever being repaired.
It was almost as if the remnant aura of Jian Shen that was left behind after the attack was scaring the Intents of Heaven and Earth away!
Looking towards it, there was no shortage of sighs in admiration towards this unknown figure whose true identity no one knew.
All they knew was that he was a handsome young man with white hair and always travelled with two swords.
...
With Cai Luli in his arms, Jian Shen kept on flying around and showed no signs of ever landing.
Seeing this, Lifen just rolled her eyes and closed them to sleep while Qingyu and Juewang chose to act as if they didn't notice what he was doing.
Luli, however, couldn't behave the same way the other three females did and after a while started showing a fed-up expression on her face.
"How long do you plan on flying?"
"As long as I have energy to do so."
Gritting her teeth since that might as well mean forever, Luli who didn't want her waist to be held by Jian Shen indefinitely said, "Then fly by yourself! Put me down!"
Chuckling and shaking his head, Jian Shen said, "I didn't risk my life and save you just to let you go, you know."
"Risked your life?! So shameless!"
Not embarrassed from being called out, Jian Shen with his thick skin continued flying around aimlessly until she finally gave in and asked, "What do you want?!"
"Huh? Whatever do you mean?"
Almost throwing up blood from looking at the naive and wronged expression Jian Shen had, Luli said, "Cut the act! There's something you want from me, and you won't let me go before I agree! So just tell me what you want."
Looking towards the woman on whom rage was also a good colour, Jian Shen asked, "Why haven't you thanked me yet?"
"What?!
"What what? Didn't I save you from the hands of a monster that was forcing you into marrying him?"
"Humph! A pot that's calling the kettle black. Even though you've saved me from him, have I not fallen in your hands now?! In that case why would I thank you?! You're just as much of a monster as he is!"
Speaking with tears filling her eyes, Luli wiped them away and turned expressionless showing that she wouldn't care if he continued to fly around for all eternity either.
...
Beauty was both a gift and a curse.
A gift to the women who have a strong family, and a curse to women like Luli whose family was weak.
Still, even though they were weak, Luli's father always made sure to never let anything happen to her by going as far as staking his own life to protect her against all those greedy men who wanted her body.
Unfortunately, when someone they couldn't resist laid his eyes on Luli, not only was the woman taken away, she had even been forced to watch the slaughter of her entire family by Dong Xiu so that she'd never have any thoughts of escaping.
At the same time she had even been forced to consume a pill which would never let her commit suicide.
Due to all of this, Luli who once always smiled like the brightest flower felt her heart ache from thinking about how she caused the death of everyone in her family.
It was also this guilt which made her think she didn't deserve to be happy which caused her to turn completely expressionless and immune to almost everything.
