Chapter 884 (Vol 3) – Why Make The Suffering Longer?

Yang Jing became dazed and frightened, feeling an energy being shaken inside her body as she took the small snowflake in her hands.

Her hands twitched and the small snowflake was expelled from them as Yang Jing became scared.

Ling Tian grabbed the small snowflake before it touched the ground.

"W-what was that..." Yang Jing asked in terror as she felt a terrifying cold start to cover her body, feeling as if some ants as cold as ice were crawling underneath her skin running inside her body. Even she could feel that her body was still cold!

"You felt it, didn't you?" Ling Tian asked when he saw Yang Jing calmed down, adding, "This is a treasure of heaven and earth that you need to be able to cultivate. What you felt is the spiritual energy reacting in your body."

Yang Jing calmed down greatly and she looked at the small snowflake in Ling Tian's hand. He was right, she for the first time felt a strange energy in her body that others called spiritual energy!

Yang Jing looked at the snowflake and then at Ling Tian, not knowing what to say.

"The Frozen Snow Heart..." Luo Hongmeng raised her eyebrows slightly at the sight of the small snowflake in Ling Tian's hands.

This was a natural treasure of heaven and earth of superior grade, even extreme grade, but rarely found.

Ling Tian looked at the small snowflake in his hand, which was the one he found in the Wen clan's treasury when he emptied it, finding five of them.

"Do you really want to help me cultivate?" Yang Jing still asked Ling Tian warily, but this time with a little less suspicion.

This powerful and terrifying young man, why did he want to help her cultivate? Did he really not want her body as he said?

Although Yang Jing was 15 years old, she had already heard a few things about the affairs related to men and women. Men would do anything to get the beautiful women and defile their bodies.

Ling Tian looked at her for several seconds and said, "Your brother is special and I can assure you that he will reach the top of this world and then he will ascend to a much bigger world, that is his destiny. But now he has no real goal and his spirit to cultivate has not shown its full potential, so giving him a goal to rescue you from me will make him fully commit to becoming very strong. By helping you cultivate to become strong I am also helping him, so the two of you will be able to support each other in the future."

Ling Tian had a plan to bet on, so he needed this boy to hurry up with his cultivation and become stronger.

If Xiao Chen became very strong, then he would be able to take care of the threats and dangers in the future, which would result in Ling Tian not having to worry much.

Ling Tian could calmly and quietly cultivate with his wives and loved ones!

The child of heaven would always be protected by heaven, so he could never die in these world crisis, especially this child who had plenty of heaven spirit.

Ling Tian just had to make sure that Xiao Chen had a true goal that would drive him to become very strong, no matter if he became the bad guy in his eyes.

Yang Jing was silent, analyzing Ling Tian's words, also being surprised that her big brother had such a fate and Ling Tian had high expectations of Xiao Chen.

However, it all seemed too good to be true!

Yang Jing knew that there was no free food in the world, so Ling Tian should want something, not just want Xiao Chen to become strong.

"You really don't have any hidden intentions?" Yang Jing frowned. She couldn't think of other things anymore.

"I promise I won't do anything to your brother and your friend." Ling Tian sighed.

How would he let this boy die when he finally thought of a plan that would rid him of many tedious and dangerous things in the future?

If the heavens had his favorite one, then Ling Tian would make sure that this boy would be kept that way, and he would face everything he had to face.

"You can seriously see my thoughts?" Ling Tian smirked in amusement.

Luo Hongmeng narrowed her eyes even more before whispering in such a small voice filled with resentment, "B-bastard husband..."

Ling Tian smiled softly upon hearing Luo Hongmeng's faint voice, moving closer to her and reaching out his hand towards her face.

His soul spiritual force surged and covered his hand, finally touching Luo Hongmeng's cheek and caressing it lovingly and tenderly. Ling Tian's gaze was filled with love and affection.

What happened in the illusion of the world of the heart did not only affect Luo Hongmeng...

A tear rolled down the tender cheek, slightly wetting Ling Tian's fingers. Luo Hongmeng gazed with an expression full of sadness and nostalgia, as well as longing and affection, but mostly love at the sight of Ling Tian.

"I-I'll have to ask one last favor of you, my darling..." Ling Tian smiled lovingly with a tinge of guilt. A thought flowed from his consciousness to Luo Hongmeng, instructing her what to do with Xiao Chen and Ziu Momo.

Ling Tian had to leave.

"Don't worry, sweetheart, you can trust me..." Luo Hongmeng finally smiled, looking into Ling Tian's beautiful jet black eyes, her hands lovingly covered Ling Tian's hand on her cheek, nodding with a much bigger smile full of love, "I understand that my husband has a lot to do!"

Ling Tian smiled more lovingly, as if he really felt Luo Hongmeng's cheek despite being a remnant of her spirit soul.

"I will leave only a little energy here, just enough to talk to these two kids and make sure they follow your set plan. My remaining energy will return to the pagoda, and if there are no more pieces of my soul scattered in the world, then I will only appear briefly before little Zu'er to help her when she tries to control the pagoda..."

Luo Hongmeng's image became more blurred as a large part of her spiritual force returned to the pagoda in Ling Tian's consciousness sea, with a small part remaining with her.

Knowing that Luo Hongmeng's spirit soul was in pieces, both she and Ling Tian now understood that there would not be much chance for her to be reborn, let alone get and build a new body, since her soul was not complete.

The soul is something so mysterious and profound that even Ling Tian does not know all its secrets.

There would even be danger of Luo Hongmeng's current soul disappearing if he tried to occupy a body, as there would be no real spiritual stability and connection, with no chance of entering into the samsara and being reborn.

Even now there was not much chance that Luo Hongmeng could be reborn in the future, so they could only say their final farewells. Sooner or later this small incomplete soul could not resist and she would disappear.

So... why make the suffering longer?

Luo Hongmeng and Ling Tian joined their foreheads lovingly for the last time. Unexpectedly, this was another miracle to be able to see each other once again, despite knowing the final outcome.

"Check this place, honey, I don't know if there were any cultivation resources left belonging to the sect. If there are any left, you can take them all." Luo Hongmeng passed a piece of information to Ling Tian. Luo Hongmeng could not use her spirit sense very well, so she could not see the state of the sect buried underground.

Ling Tian smiled gratefully.

"Are you ready?"

Ling Tian asked Yang Jing.

Yang Jing leaned Xiao Chen and Ziu Momo's bodies against the wall, allowing them to rest better. She looked at them and smiled fondly and reluctantly.

Taking one last glance with obvious reluctance at Xiao Chen and Ziu Momo, Yang Jing nodded, "I'm ready!"

Ling Tian took out a flying sword and made it large, large enough for Yang Jing to be able to sit down and secure herself completely without being so close together while he controlled the sword.

Ling Tian took one last look at Luo Hongmeng, who smiled at him and she bid him a loving farewell, as if she were a wife watching her husband leaving for work but, for this time, it would be for an indefinitely long time.
