190 The Tearful Separation. (1/2)
In a blink of an eye, two days have passed since Ling Chen had destroyed the Long Family as well as killing the projection of the Thunder Demi-God Ye.
During these two days, the news of what happened soon circulated throughout the entire Sun Demi-God Domain, and swiftly spread all over the Heaven Suppression Region like a storm.
Whether it was regular mortals or powerful warriors from great families, everyone became paralyzed for a long time after hearing that news.
Annihilating the Long Family, killing all the guests attending Long Bai's birthday party, killing the projection of the Thunder Demi-God Ye, being in the possession one of the Keys of the Great Luo Martial Tomb. Each one of this news was more shocking than the last.
What was even more shocking was the fact that the person behind all of these Heaven-defying feats was a young man that was disguised as the famous and amiable monk known as the Wandering Monk along with his Nine-Headed Hydra Demon beast.
Just imagine how unbeatable and dreadful Long Bai and Long Zhentian used to be or how unshakable the Long Family was for thousands of years, yet they were destroyed in one night by a nameless youth.
According to the witnesses, they were like fishes on the chopping board. They didn't even have the chance or the power fight back. Under the onslaught of the Nine-Headed Hydra, the entire Long Family disappeared in an instant.
Until three days ago, it was the original belief in this world that it was impossible for a Martial Saint to kill the Projection of a Demi-God. However, that eternal belief was broken by a nameless youth.
And even if it was remotely possible for a Martial Saint warrior to kill the Projection of a Demi-God, no Martial Saint in their right mind would dare to offend a Demi-God let alone kill their projections.
Yet that mysterious youth known as Ling Chen not only offend a Demi-God, he even killed his projection in public which was like an extreme disgrace and great humiliation for a godly being like a Demi-God who were considered as invincible beings.
It's already been two days since everything happened. Yet, everyone was still in a state of shock as they were trying to let this unbelievable news sink in.
Meanwhile, the nameless Ling Chen became famous overnight from this one battle.
His fame spread across the entire Heaven Suppression Region as he became a hot topic for many warriors and mortals alike, especially those who saw the battle with their own eyes that night.
........................
White Cloud Village was a little village located in a remote region in the Sun Demi-God Domain, far away from the hustle and bustle of the great cities.
The little village was neither big nor small and had several hundred villagers. It was surrounded by hills and mountains, the scenery was breathtaking.
The village's surroundings were filled with various plants and little animals. Even the quality of the air here was fresh and fragrant beyond comparison.
”Father Monk please don't leave little Mei. Don't you like little Mei anymore? Please stay with me.” At this moment, within a small house within the village, a little girl whose eyes were brimming with tears held onto the robe of a young man, preventing him from leaving the small house.
Behind the small girl was a beautiful woman who seemed to share the sentiment as she was looking at the young man with a sense of loss and longing in her eyes. However, she didn't dare to say anything.
Even though Ling Chen had changed into his true appearance, the little girl still referred to him as father Monk.
To her, no matter what Ling Chen did or how he looked like, he will always be her father monk. The person who pulled her out from the depth of hell and showed her what being loved and cared for felt like.
Aside from her mother, he was the most important person in her life.
”Of course your father monk still loves you but I have to go. I can't stay with you.” Ling Chen said with a saddened expression on his face as he bent down to caress the little girl's face and wiped away her tears.
Even though he didn't spend a lot of time with the little girl, he still developed some sort of attachment to her. Whether it was for her innocence, her strong will power, and her bravery, Ling Chen really liked her.
However, he couldn't just abandon everything and stayed with her and her mother. He had a family of his own as well as many things he needed to do.
”Then...then why don't you take me with you.” Suddenly asked the little girl as her eyes were still dripping with tears.
”I can't little Mei. Father monk has many enemies and can't take you with me. Furthermore, what about your mother, she needs you. If you are gone whose gonna take care of her.”
Upon hearing Ling Chen's words, little Mei cried even more. She felt confused. She didn't want to leave her mother, and she also didn't want to part way with father monk.
These two people were the two most important people in her life. She didn't want to part way with any of them. Yet, she could only stay with one.
Seeing the saddened look on Little Mei's face, Ling Chen had a perplex expression on his face. It was the first he found himself in such a situation.
At the same time, he was touched. However, he still couldn't take her and her mother with him. It was for their own good.
Ling Chen had already long realized that he would never have a peaceful life. The moment he was born, he was destined to embark on a path of endless slaughter.
”But I don't want to leave any of you.” Little Mei said as she continued crying.
