Chapter 436: Li Zhiqing (1/2)

Lan was a Deity, he could understand Xue Wei's thoughts just by looking at his face, but he said nothing to comfort him.

The conjecture that Xue Wei had reached was indeed correct. If he posed a threat to the world, Lan would instantly eradicate him.

But right now, he was not a danger, but instead the hope for the entire world, so he would give him plenty of support.

He also understood the danger of keeping Xue Wei alive, but danger and opportunity went hand in hand, and as a deity, he understood that if one wanted to have good results, they also had to take risks.

He had been stuck in this world for so many years, but this was the first time that a ray of hope had been born. This ray of hope could bring life to the entire world; it might even make it possible for Lan to go back to living as he wished.

Lan sighed. It had been many years since he had last thought about her, but whenever he saw Xue Wei, he felt as if some of her heritage had returned.

She was never fortunate enough to become a Holy Daughter, nor did she have the fortune to be able to cultivate.

She was a mere mortal, her body was frail, and her lifespan short.

Her name was Li Zhiqing. She was a mixed breed between a human and a Primordial Beast. It was from before the time when it was impossible to breed between the races, it was from when mixed races were everywhere, but things were different back then.

Some of the mixed breed descendants were known as devils because of their outstanding ability to cultivate. They were real geniuses, the sons and daughters of heaven, the favored children of fate.

Unfortunately, this was only true for some of the descendants; others were completely useless. Their ability to cultivate was gone; they could only live through life as ordinary people, live out their lives as mortals, and be abandoned by their family.

When Lan first came to this world, he descended near a small cottage that was placed next to a large lake.

This cottage was already very old and seemed as if it would collapse at any moment, but a sweet melodious voice had resounded from within, attracting Lan's attention.

Lan went to the cottage, only to find a very average woman sitting behind the house, looking at the lake with a tranquil smile on her face. She was merely fifteen years old, but Lan could not sense the slightest fluctuation of Qi in her body, her body did not have the ability to absorb energy, neither did she have a beast core. She was completely crippled.

Lan was amazed by her smile. Although she was unable to cultivate, although she was all alone in the middle of nowhere, she seemed happy.
