Chapter 237 Slapping the Face of the Heartless Cultivator 15 (The End)
"Outsiders?" Mu said, coughing up blood.
He was already at his last gasp, his life force rapidly fading away. "Is that what you call me?"
"Outsider... Hahaha, I'm an outsider too? This world should have a place for me all along! What kind of outsider am I?"
“Regardless of whether you are an outsider or not, it is wrong to seize the destiny of the Child of Heaven for your own use! Don’t you know how many small worlds you have destroyed?” Leng Yuexing retorted.
Mu knelt weakly on the ground, saying, "These small worlds should have a share in them. It's only natural for me to destroy or ruin them!"
Leng Yuexing was still a little confused by what the outsider had said, but after hearing what he said, the confusion in her eyes disappeared instantly.
If these worlds truly belonged to outsiders, why would they think of destroying or annihilating them? Instead, they should carefully protect them.
Presumably, these small worlds were never his; he simply regarded them as his own, which is why he said that.
Leng Yuexing had seen bandits before, but this was the first time he had ever seen a bandit so righteous and outspoken.
Seeing Leng Yuexing's disbelieving expression, Mu clenched his fists tightly.
"Those little worlds are mine, and you should be mine too! I just met you a little late, if..."
Although Huangfu Ming didn't know what they were talking about, he could roughly guess some of it. After all, this world was also a world of cultivation, and the saying of three thousand worlds was not uncommon.
Huangfu Ming couldn't stand it when He Mu claimed Leng Yuexing as his own. Before He Mu could finish speaking, he used his spiritual power to control lightning and strike He Mu.
He Mu wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak. His lips moved for a long time before he fell backward and died. His body was then turned to ashes by lightning.
"Don't listen to him." Huangfu Ming turned Leng Yuexing around to face him. "You've always been mine, and you can't belong to anyone else!"
Seeing Huangfu Ming's anxious expression, Leng Yuexing grasped his hand and said, "I know who my heart belongs to, and I won't listen to what others say."
Huangfu Ming's eyes softened upon hearing this. "I don't know what happened in other small worlds, but I know that even if I met you in another world, I would fall in love with you and stay by your side."
Leng Yuexing knew that what Huangfu Ming said was a fact that had already happened; he wasn't just saying it casually.
“If you want to hear it, I can tell you everything that happened before,” Leng Yuexing said with a smile.
"Alright, then tell me little by little." Huangfu Ming said, pulling Leng Yuexing's hand and walking towards the palace. He then gave a look to a servant beside him, signaling him to clean up the place.
The attendant nodded respectfully in silence, and after Huangfu Ming and Leng Yuexing left, he instructed the others to clean up the astrological platform.
After returning to her palace and having dinner, Leng Yuexing recounted the events that had occurred in the several worlds she had visited to Huangfu Ming.
After listening to Leng Yuexing's words, Huangfu Ming said in a deep voice, "So, you don't know who I am, you only know that you can meet me in every world?"
Leng Yuexing nodded, "Once the God Space is repaired, we will meet there, and then I will know who you are."
Huangfu Ming lowered his head and kissed Leng Yuexing's forehead. "Maybe I'll be doing missions in different worlds just like you. My mission is to protect you!"
Leng Yuexing smiled and said, "Alright, then my safety will depend on you from now on!"
Huangfu Ming was amused by his own guess and chuckled softly in Leng Yuexing's ear.
They all knew that Huangfu Ming's true identity was not like that, but they all liked this setting.
In the days that followed, Huangfu Ming became even more proactive in dual cultivation with Leng Yuexing, spending more time cultivating.
He handed the throne to an outstanding member of the royal family from a collateral branch, and then left the capital with Leng Yuexing.
Even knowing they would meet again in the next world, Huangfu Ming hoped to spend more time together in this world.
Leng Yuexing knew Huangfu Ming's feelings well; every separation was a heavy blow to him.
So he actively cooperated with Huangfu Ming, and together they searched for places where spiritual energy gathered and worked hard to cultivate.
Even so, due to the scarcity of spiritual energy in this world, they failed to break through the Golden Core stage and enter the Nascent Soul stage.
They spent five hundred years together, and on their last day, as their time was drawing to a close, they climbed together to the summit of a high mountain.
They sat close together, their spiritual energy circulating within their intertwined hands until the last trace of energy was exhausted. They gazed at the setting sun and slowly closed their eyes.
In this life, they left this world together. After their breaths disappeared, the array set up beside them was activated, and raging flames surrounded them, merging their bodies together and burning them to ashes.
When Leng Yuexing opened his eyes in the starry sea space, he could still feel the comfort of spiritual energy circulating in his body, and for a moment he was a little dazed.
Only after the sapling frantically shook its leaves did he turn his attention to it.
The sapling has grown taller and has more leaves than before, but it will probably take some time before it blooms.
The Starry Sea Space hadn't changed much since he left last time.
Deep within the Star Sea Space, a glimmer of light still exists, but Leng Yuexing knows that glimmer of light, like these small worlds, is perhaps just a projection and does not truly exist here.
He stopped insisting on walking towards that ray of light; simply looking at it made Leng Yuexing feel much better.
He spoke to the sapling, "What did you mean by 'master' earlier?"
The sapling looked puzzled and shook its branches.
“It’s what you said before we left last time,” Leng Yuexing added.
"I don't remember," came the sapling's clear voice.
Is this so...
"It's alright, just tell me when you remember," Leng Yuexing said with a gentle smile.
"So, you said before that outsiders attacked you, and now the Star Sea Space is not safe?" Leng Yuexing asked again.
The sapling shook its head again; it didn't know the current state of the Star Sea Space either.
Seeing that the sapling didn't know either, Leng Yuexing pondered for a while and then said, "Let's leave now." After saying that, Leng Yuexing gently tapped the sapling and left the Star Sea Space.
When Leng Yuexing regained consciousness, he found himself standing in a magnificent, golden hall.
There were many people standing in the hall, and many guards with weapons stood on both sides.
"Heroes from another world! We need you!" A solemn voice resounded throughout the hall.
