Chapter 320: Chapter 142: If Aunt Song Had Adopted Me Back Then, Would I Have Had a Father?

Tantai Yao and the Gu Family Ancestor returned to Wutong.

But midway.

They encountered the Master of Profound Soldier Cave, Qin Wubai, though the figure of Dragon-slaying Marquis Jiang Xiao was absent, causing a moment of wariness and precaution in their hearts:

"Has the Cave Master’s emergence signified that the situation in Wutong Prefecture has stabilized?"

This Master of Profound Soldier Cave, standing at two meters tall and famous for his forging, was momentarily speechless.

He turned to look in the direction of Wutong Prefecture and spoke in a deep voice:

"The former Baoping Grand General of Great Zhao, Dragon-slaying Marquis Jiang Xiao, has already fallen."

"A giant among demons made a move, arriving with overwhelming force before the Xuanqing Demon Monarch fled."

"Even if we eradicated the demon, she wasn’t our match."

"I heard that Great Zhao has already sent experts to aid us, among them ’Duke-level’ figures. The Gu Ancestor and I have resolved to return to our sect and family to relay the news to Great Zhao!"

"Tantai True Master has reached the fourth step, which is not easy; it’s best to leave early and not fall here!"

The two of them silently stood at one place, their breaths faintly connecting as one line, observing the seemingly tangible ’True Master apparition’...

Tantai Yao’s expression turned grim:

"Wutong Prefecture has been conquered by a Demon Monarch?"

"Aside from Xuanqing Demon Monarch Gu Hua, which other Demon Monarch could take over Wutong?"

The Master of Profound Soldier Cave, Qin Wubai, spoke in a deep voice:

"It’s a Pure-blooded Great Demon wielding an Ice Sword, likely possessing ’Fox Blood,’ whose battle strength is comparable to ’giants,’ not merely crossing the first barrier as a True Master."

"Dragon-slaying Marquis and I had just emerged from seclusion, at a vulnerable time, unlike our peak. Even if we exerted full strength, we couldn’t defeat her, resulting in one dead and one defeated, and had no choice but to take the Primordial Pills and withdraw from the Prefecture City."

His words had just fallen.

Those Nirvana Corpses and Nirvana Seekers from various sects and families who had resurrected decades ago all nodded in affiliation.

Causing a tidal wave of shock in Tantai Yao’s heart, gradually recalling a person.

But... 𝒇𝓻𝓮𝓮𝙬𝙚𝒃𝒏𝓸𝙫𝒆𝙡.𝓬𝓸𝒎

She should not have targeted ordinary mortals!

Then, among these ’Nirvana Corpses’ Jixia mentioned, one must be real, and the other must be false!

Having joined forces with these ’Nirvana Corpses’ not long ago, Tantai Yao did not know much about these people’s identities from decades back.

But many sects and families within Wutong Realm dispatched disciples to indicate that these people were their Ancestors of the past, leading him to take a gamble and utilize them.

If he were to truly have faith...

Of course, Tantai Yao cannot wholly believe their words.

So he gathered his entire magical power, gripped his sword, and spoke coldly:

"Thank you, True Master, for your kindness, but Wutong Prefecture is my homeland, the foundation of my sect. I must see for myself what the truth really is."

With that, he already darted away.

Leaving behind the Nirvana Corpses on a small hilltop, gazing after his retreating figure.

"Why not strike him?"

The elderly Gu Family Ancestor, with sunken eye sockets, spoke:

"You’ve had your fill within Prefecture City, but I have gained nothing."

"If the ’Nirvana Tribulation’ isn’t launched soon or spiritual qi isn’t absorbed, I’m afraid this body won’t hold up."

The Master of Profound Soldier Cave, Qin Wubai, his expression sinister, looked towards the direction Tantai Yao had disappeared:

"You think I don’t want to?"

"But Tantai Yao just had a breakthrough, and he’s not so easily killed, besides..."

"Who knows if the insane woman in Wutong Prefecture will come to hunt us down!"

"Based on memories."

"Even at ’my’ peak, I probably couldn’t win against her sword."

"Dragon-slaying Marquis Jiang Xiao didn’t die unjustly, though one wonders what exactly is that boy’s identity, to make such a woman go berserk."

"But it doesn’t matter."

"Though ’Jiang Xiao’ has fallen, his identity represents a major force in Divine Capital."

"Including you, the two of us are the same; losing a small ’Wutong Prefecture’ matters little, what more can it do?"

"Urgently, we must first embrace all that our ’identity’ brings!"

"Over at Celestial Abyss, I’ve used the ’Undying Nirvana Talisman’ to convert and send the spiritual qi from all the demons and Prefecture citizens who perished in Wutong Prefecture City, enough to sustain the awakened Nirvana progenitor."

"Originally, I planned to utilize the identity of Dragon-slaying Marquis to lead this resurrected ’Nirvana Envoy’, join Great Zhao, and through the partition of Baoping, continuously stir ’smoky war flames’, enhance strength, and grow ourselves, which was indeed a viable path."

"But now Dragon-slaying Marquis is dead, the ’Nirvana Envoy’s’ corporeal body lacks the protection of high-ranking Great Zhao officials. Forcing into public view may not be good, lest we repeat past mistakes."

"Given the current scenario, we can only proceed step by step."

...

Wutong Prefecture.

As an observer.

Yousu Yue was stunned today.

What did she see?!

Aunt Song from the Great Snow Mountain, like an iceberg of a woman.

Day in and day out, she’s either in seclusion or in seclusion.

Or she’s hanging a portrait, sitting in her cave absurdly for a whole day, looking despondent.

Leaving the old members of the Profound Fox Race on Great Snow Mountain helpless, unable to say a word more due to her status.

But today!

She nestled in someone’s arms, completely still!

Watching the tender affection in those captivating eyes, one might say they were about to drip with water, exactly like those pure-blooded Fox Girls from the Great Snow Mountain!

If those Celestial Prides who once admired Aunt Song, or even several Demon Monarchs saw this...

They might get so enraged that their chests would hurt!

But Song Brahman Mirror does not care about any of this.

"Aunt Song, shouldn’t we move this gentleman to a different place?"

"We’re both Half-Demons, after all!"
