Urban Romantic Divine Doctor

Chapter 1588: Chapter 1585: No Need to Explain to Me

The situation in the Immortal Realm is like a tangled mess, complex and distressing.

The Otherworldly Demons rampage across this land, like malignant tumors growing in the dark, leaving ruins wherever they go.

Humanity’s living space is constantly being compressed, already in a precarious situation.

In this doomsday-like situation, if one wants to completely overthrow the brutal rule of the Otherworldly Demons, relying solely on Xu Wendong and the few people around him is undoubtedly a drop in the bucket, far from enough.

Every confrontation with the Otherworldly Demons is like sailing through raging waves, always at risk of being mercilessly engulfed.

Therefore, the pressing matter is to find a key path to shift the situation, and going to Cuiying Lake to find a large amount of Dragon Yang Stone is that glimmer of hope.

The Dragon Yang Stone is the key to revive the Dragon Soul within Xu Wendong.

You must know, the Dragon Soul within Xu Wendong is not an ordinary soul; it’s the soul of a Divine Dragon!

It carries the majesty and power of the Divine Dragon, containing endless mystery and Divine Skills.

The reason Xu Wendong can stand his ground in the turbulent Immortal Realm is, to a large extent, due to the Pill Prescription and Formation previously imparted by the Dragon Soul.

This valuable knowledge is like a beacon in the dark, illuminating his path forward, allowing him to possess Magical Treasures to defeat enemies when faced with numerous difficulties.

Now, for the fate of the entire Immortal Realm and for the future of humanity, reviving the Dragon Soul has become Xu Wendong’s most important mission.

The Dragon Yang Stone is like the spark of hope, guiding him firmly towards Cuiying Lake.

On the following morning, sunlight streamed through the clouds into the dining hall, adding a touch of warmth.

Inside the dining hall, Xu Wendong and a few close confidantes sat together, enjoying a bountiful breakfast.

The table was filled with delicacies, emitting enticing aromas.

It was at this moment that Si Yao walked in.

Xu Wendong looked up at her, a flash of indisputable guilt spread across his eyes.

The dual cultivation with her mother last night weighed on him like a heavy stone.

He understood the complexity and impropriety of it, especially when faced with Si Yao, the sense of guilt grew stronger.

Xu Wendong coughed lightly twice, trying to ease the awkward atmosphere, and asked somewhat awkwardly, ”Didn’t Lord Immortal King come?”

His voice was a bit dry, and his gaze wandered, not daring to meet Si Yao’s eyes.

”Lord Immortal King has already gone into closed-door cultivation,” Si Yao replied indifferently, her words betraying no emotion.

She actually didn’t know what happened specifically between her mother and Xu Wendong last night, but she understood Xu Wendong too well.

Coupled with the keen perception that he’s now entered the True Immortal Realm, Si Yao had already guessed roughly, and a strong sense of displeasure welled up in her heart.

Initially, it was she who suggested that Xu Wendong and her mother dual cultivate, yet now, thinking of Xu Wendong knowing the true identity of herself and the Immortal King, and still having such a relationship with her mother, it felt like a thorn in her throat, very uncomfortable.

This complex emotion intertwined within her heart, making her both love and hate Xu Wendong.

Seeing this, Xu Wendong gave a sheepish smile, then his expression turned serious as he said earnestly, ”I’m planning to go to Cuiying Lake, come with me!”

Although he stepped into the True Immortal Realm, it is only the first layer of the True Immortal Realm; this time going to Cuiying Lake, the journey is dangerous with many unknown risks for sure.

He’s witnessed Si Yao’s Daluo Golden Immortal level of power, with her accompanying him, the success rate would be much higher.

Si Yao slightly furrowed her brow and remained silent for a moment.

Despite her displeasure with Xu Wendong, she knows well that Xu Wendong’s mission concerns the fate of all living beings.

Facing this great moral duty, her personal sentiment seemed insignificant.

”Alright.” Eventually, Si Yao agreed to his suggestion.

After the meal, Xu Wendong and Si Yao prepared adequately and left the Penglai Fairy Island Minor World.

Once Xu Wendong and Si Yao left the Penglai Fairy Island Minor World,

A stifling atmosphere greeted them, as if a dark shadow instantly shrouded them.

The air of the Immortal Realm contrasts clearly with the pure and fresh atmosphere inside the Minor World, here the air is filled with thin yet pungent Demonic Qi.

Making one feel uncomfortable all over.

In fact, the environment of the Immortal Realm had been polluted long ago, just without comparison, there’s no harm.

Previously, Si Yao hadn’t entered the Penglai Fairy Island Minor World, hence couldn’t sense how harsh the Immortal Realm’s environment was.

But after living in the Minor World for several days, she clearly sensed the anomaly outside.

Though it’s like this.

But she has strong adaptability and soon adjusted to the outside environment.

She summoned out her Flying Sword, stepping lightly onto it.

Xu Wendong then followed and stepped onto Si Yao’s Flying Sword.

Only to see Si Yao wave her jade hand, and the Flying Sword turned into a stream of light, carrying Xu Wendong skyward, swiftly heading in the direction of Cuiying Lake.

Xu Wendong looked at the silent Si Yao, her slim yet stubborn back seemed to have a heavy stone pressing on his heart.

He sighed, the sigh full of bitterness and helplessness, breaking the suffocating silence on the Flying Sword: ”Si Yao, do you blame me for my actions last night in your heart?”

Si Yao’s body trembled slightly, her lips quivered faintly, yet she said nothing.

Her mind kept flashing images of her mother and Xu Wendong, her heart tangled like a mess.

Xu Wendong continued: ”I really didn’t want that, you know? When I faced such a choice, my heart was also tormented.”

His gaze shifted to the distance, a hint of struggle in his eyes, ”That’s your biological mother, you know I understand the ethics and morals involved.”

His brows furrowed tightly as if he returned to that difficult situation last night.

”But, if I didn’t do that, her soul trauma couldn’t be completely healed. Can you understand my helplessness at that time?” Xu Wendong’s eyes revealed a wry smile.

Si Yao’s eyes turned red, tears turning in her eyes.

Her heart fell into profound conflict.

On one hand, she felt anger and shame at Xu Wendong’s actions; that was her mother!

But on the other hand, she clearly understood Xu Wendong’s intention was to save her mother.

And after all, it was she who suggested that he act that way...

Si Yao took a deep breath, trying to calm her emotions, her expression returning to its former indifference: ”Although we have done dual cultivation, we are not a Daoist couple, what you do has nothing to do with me, and you don’t need to explain to me!”

She was attempting to comfort herself.

This statement, although somewhat self-deceptive, made her feel much lighter inside.

Xu Wendong remained silent, although he and Si Yao are not Daoist couples.

Yet for him, any woman who has been intimate with him is the most cherished existence in his life!

Whether or not they are mother and daughter...

Whether or not they have a Daoist couple...

Does that matter?
