"Why is it always some strange monster instead of Tian Zhu?" Ling Yin's expression darkened. She had encountered far too many spiritual beasts since entering this place.If the spiritual beasts in this forest hadn't been mutated—making them extremely aggressive and completely indifferent to the strength of their opponents—Ling Yin wouldn't have been this frustrated. Ordinary spiritual beasts would normally flee the moment they sensed her aura.Ling Yin had searched everywhere for Tian Zhu, yet she had found no trace of him anywhere in the Qiong Forest. She had been worried sick, and every step of her search had been interrupted by one spiritual beast after another.So when she saw the red rat standing before her, she wanted nothing more than to crush it.She gathered spiritual energy into her fist, preparing to smash the red rat's head into pieces.Without a word, Ling Yin shot forward. In an instant, she appeared right in front of the red rat."Wait, Yin'er!"Ling Yin froze the momen

“I did meet Tian Zhu earlier. He looked completely fine, not injured at all. But for some reason, he said it would be better to talk about everything later at the Earth Martial Courtyard, and then he disappeared just like that.” Ling Yin recounted what had happened, subtly altering a few details. She deliberately left out the fact that Tian Zhu was now able to touch her.They would find out themselves once they met Tian Zhu anyway, so Ling Yin decided there was no need to mention it yet.Xie Dao Yun and Luo Ying exchanged glances for a moment. They had no reason to believe Ling Yin would lie in a situation like this, so they chose to trust her. Even so, they couldn't understand why Tian Zhu had suddenly left without another word.“If that's really the case, then we should return to the Earth Martial Courtyard immediately. I really want to see him with my own eyes.” Xie Dao Yun could no longer hide her impatience.“Alright then. Let's go and meet Tian Zhu.”**Meanwhile, because of wha

Yun Zhi finally understood what Tian Zhu had meant when he said he couldn't go any further after seeing him suddenly pull away just before touching her chest."So that's why... You were so close just now." Yun Zhi smiled, though she felt a trace of disappointment that Tian Zhu hadn't ended up touching her. "But I don't think it matters. At least now we can touch you freely, and that's already enough."Yun Zhi was quite satisfied now. She no longer had to keep her distance from Tian Zhu and could freely touch the man she loved, even if there were still a few boundaries they couldn't cross."But why has your condition suddenly eased a little, Honey? If you already know the cure, we'll definitely help you find it so you can recover completely.""Zhi'er, my condition... you could say it doesn't really have a cure. The only cure lies within myself, and whether I recover depends on me as well." Tian Zhu let out a sigh."What do you mean? I don't understand at all. If there's no cure, then w

"Tian Zhu, hearing about your background was truly shocking. And as for what you did when you were a God... honestly, I can't even describe how I feel right now. You used so many women merely for your own satisfaction, then abandoned them as though they meant nothing. I won't lie—hearing that made me angry. How could the man I've always known to be honest and responsible have once done something so despicable?"And when I heard that you had only approached us for your own benefit... that you didn't have even the slightest feelings for us at the beginning... it hurt me deeply. I believe the others feel the same way. But the fact that you've chosen to tell us the truth already proves that you truly want to change. And hearing you say that you would fight to win us back even if we left... that made me happy. I won't dwell on your past anymore, as long as you truly change from this day forward." Ling Yin gently took Tian Zhu's hand and smiled warmly.To Ling Yin, Tian Zhu was her entire w

Luo Ying was standing in the backyard of her residence, atop the surface of a small lake filled with ornamental fish, gazing up at the star-filled night sky. Her eyes were red and glistening with tears, and more than once, they had already streamed down her cheeks. She couldn’t understand her own feelings and had begun to doubt herself. One thing was certain—she felt deeply disappointed in Tian Zhu. The man she had believed to be the perfect choice had, in truth, only intended to use her. Her view of him had completely changed. Yet she couldn’t deny that she had gained far too much from Tian Zhu. After everything he had given her, she couldn’t simply walk away from him as though none of it had happened. Should she learn to accept everything as Ling Yin and Yun Zhi had? Or should she repay Tian Zhu’s kindness and then leave the past behind? Luo Ying was truly conflicted. “Why is my daughter crying like this?” A familiar voice suddenly reached her ears. Luo Ying quickly
