Chapter 1791: Chapter 1788: Serve You Together?
His soul force surged like a torrent of stars, roaring endlessly.
Countless golden runes appeared deep within his sea of consciousness.
These runes contained the laws and mysteries of the universe. Each rune’s illumination caused Xu Wendong’s soul force to multiply exponentially.
When the black soul beam touched Xu Wendong’s soul defense, it was like a tiny droplet colliding with a towering mountain, instantly rebounding.
The golden light seemed to have a life of its own, launching a proactive attack, wrapping layer upon layer around the black soul beam.
Under the scorching of the golden light, the resentful spirit shadow within the black soul beam emitted a heartbreaking scream, quickly dispersing into wisps of blue smoke.
The middle-aged man sensed the backlash from the soul attack, his face turning pale as paper, his body uncontrollably trembling violently.
He couldn’t comprehend that his full-force soul attack was so easily shattered in front of Xu Wendong.
His soul force was ravaged by the golden light, flickering like a dying candle in a storm, on the verge of extinction at any moment.
"You... you’re not human?" The middle-aged man looked at Xu Wendong in terror, his body shaking uncontrollably.
It was as if he had seen a ghost.
"Did I ever claim to be human?" Xu Wendong remained calm, slightly opening his eyes, whose golden glow was as dazzling as the sun, exuding infinite majesty and a commanding presence over all beings.
He gently raised his hand, causing the golden light in the void to gather, forming a giant golden hand, slowly pressing toward the middle-aged man’s soul.
This golden hand carried the power of destroying the heavens and earth, its every movement twisting the void relentlessly.
The middle-aged man looked in horror at the approaching golden hand, his heart filled with despair.
He wanted to escape.
But he found his soul firmly imprisoned by this powerful force, unable to move.
He could only watch helplessly as the golden hand drew closer, with the shadow of death gradually enveloping him.
"No!"
Accompanied by the middle-aged man’s hysterical scream, the golden hand landed heavily on him.
Boom!
A deafening explosion resounded across the heavens and earth.
Meanwhile.
The middle-aged man’s physical body and soul turned to ashes at that moment, vanishing into the world.
Even with Mahayana realm cultivation, he couldn’t withstand Xu Wendong’s fatal strike!
As everything settled, Xu Wendong couldn’t help but let out a sigh, a hint of contemplative heaviness in his eyes: "I wonder how many similar demon seeds are left in this world!"
He regained his thoughts and walked toward Zhang Nian.
At this moment.
Zhang Nian slowly opened her eyes, her face pale, her gaze weary.
However.
When she saw Xu Wendong, a look of uncontainable joy filled her eyes, and she weakly stood up, rushing into Xu Wendong’s arms, bursting into tears: "Master, I thought I would never see you again!"
"It’s all right now, it’s all right." Xu Wendong softly comforted Zhang Nian, his heart full of remorse, thinking that if he had allowed Zhang Nian to live in Shengjing Shanshui Villa District, today’s events could have been avoided.
After all, the Slayer Vine lives in the villa district; even a Great Ascension period powerhouse would become fertilizer for the Slayer Vine if present in the villa district!
Zhang Nian cried for a while before her emotions calmed down. She looked at Xu Wendong with red and swollen eyes and couldn’t help but say, "Master, I’ve realized that no matter what relationship you have with my mother, you are the most important man in my life!"
Xu Wendong felt a sense of relief upon hearing her words, a hint of a comforting smile appearing on his face, then said, "It’s not very safe over at Mystic Spirit Pavilion. Come live with me at home!"
"Just in time, your mother also lives over there."
Zhang Nian wiped her tears away, her face red, and nodded slightly. She then seemed to think of something and couldn’t resist saying, "Master, should we find a chance for my mom and me to serve you together?" She said, giving Xu Wendong a knowing look.
Hearing this, Xu Wendong shivered involuntarily, trying his best to conceal his awkwardness, saying, "There’s really no need!"
To him, some things could be done.
And some things could not be done.
This was his bottom line!
Then Xu Wendong took Zhang Nian back to Shengjing Shanshui Villa District, introducing Zhang Nian as his disciple to Lin Yiren and Liu Shimei.
There wasn’t much said about certain matters, but they were mutually understood.
In a blink, the sun set in the west, its afterglow like a golden veil draping the earth.
Xu Wendong, Lin Yiren, Liu Shimei, and Zhang Nian sat around a steaming hotpot, joyous chatter filling the room with the aroma of the hotpot.
Suddenly, Xu Wendong seemed hit by an invisible current and shuddered all over.
His originally relaxed expression instantly turned solemn; he slowly raised his head, gazing directly towards the western sky.
"What’s wrong, Wendong?" Lin Yiren noticed his abnormality, asking concernedly, her eyes filled with worry.
Xu Wendong’s lips slightly curved into a mysterious smile, a smile seemingly holding endless stories: "The Kunlun Mountains Minor World has opened!"
His voice was deep and powerful, carrying an undeniable certainty.
As the former master of the Kunlun Mountains Minor World and Earth’s unequivocal strongest.
Xu Wendong possessed an exceptionally keen perception of the waves created when Kunlun Mountains Minor World was opened, waves like a part of his body, which he could instantly detect upon occurrence.
Upon hearing this, Lin Yiren’s face instantly turned pale, her previously rosy lips losing their color.
She involuntarily envisioned her husband Xu Wenjian’s figure in her mind, a surge of strong unease rising in her heart.
If Xu Wenjian returned, would Xu Wendong and her covertly happy life be thoroughly shattered?
"An old friend has arrived!" Xu Wendong’s face once again showed a gentle smile, a smile holding both nostalgia for the past and anticipation for the upcoming meeting.
He slowly stood up, walking steadily towards the door.
At that moment, a gentle breeze passed, a fallen leaf swirling as it dropped through the air.
A woman wearing a high-slit blue long dress hovered above the villa like a dark night elf.
The fabric of the dress was soft, clinging closely to her body, perfectly outlining her exquisite curves, and the high slit inadvertently revealed her slender, straight legs, flickering with alluring glow under the sunset.
Her long black hair cascaded freely down her back, playful strands of loose hair falling beside her fair cheeks, adding a touch of charm.
Her eyes carried an enchanting allure, slightly upturned corners seemingly hiding myriad seductions.
Her red lips slightly parted, carrying an inexplicable ambiguous smile, emitting a unique cold yet sexy allure that was irresistible.
This person was none other than Xu Wendong’s previous confidante, Qing Niao!
