Lan Xiaoni bade farewell to An Lin.
She was hoping that An Lin would stay for a few more days. After all, this was a rare opportunity for them to be alone together. However, An Lin insisted on leaving as soon as possible as there was someone waiting for him.
Lan Xiaoni pouted with a hint of disappointment and displeasure in her heart. Was she not beautiful enough, or did her seafood cooking not suit his tastes? Why was he so insistent on leaving?
She was a little unhappy, but she still put on a smile for An Lin and wished him a safe journey.
After An Lin left, Lan Xiaoni pumped herself up and reapplied herself to the resistance against the Heavenly Human Tribe. The war had not been won yet, and she had to continue to work hard!
At Chen Xi City.
The Celestial Thearch was quite perplexed by the Heavenly Human Tribe’s near-suicidal attacks in the past few days. They were all thumping victories, but he was unable to muster up any joy as his heart was filled with confusion and unease.
Finally, the truth was revealed to him following An Lin’s destruction of the one billion Heavenly Human eggs. So this was what the paramount Heavenly Gods had been planning; they were trying to lure the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army into a state of complacency before unleashing the one billion Heavenly Human Tribe powerful beings upon them…
If that plan had succeeded, complete despair would’ve ensued. To the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army, that would be a lethal blow.
However, this sinister plot was foiled by An Lin, and the Heavenly Human Tribe United Army had essentially shot themselves in the foot. They had been reduced to only ten million soldiers, and they no longer had any reinforcements. How were they supposed to stand up against the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army, which still had around sixty million troops?
The media outlets on the Tai Chu Continent didn’t elaborate this on their headlines, but all of the mighty figures across the entire continent were aware of how important this event was. It could be said that An Lin had dragged the Tai Chu Continent back from the brink of annihilation once again.
“A few days ago, he was still hanging around Yue Tong City as if he were on a vacation. Now, he’s out there foiling the plans of the paramount Heavenly Gods and burning a billion Heavenly Human eggs… Is he a god?” Emperor Ziwei was completely astonished.
“Hahaha… Sect Leader An Lin really is an extraordinary man…” The Celestial Thearch burst into laughter. “The paramount Heavenly Gods are always coming off second-best against him. They must be cursing him to hell right now!”
Emperor Chang Sheng stroked his beard with a buoyant smile. “My knees feel weak when I think about three paramount Heavenly Gods thirsting for my blood. What a terrifying position Sect Leader An Lin is in.”
His words expressed concern, but the smile on his face only grew wider.
The more furious their enemies were, the more elated they became!
Deriving joy from the suffering of one’s enemies was a very enjoyable activity.
An Lin’s three disciples were the most elated of all. The three of them were boasting about how mighty and invincible their master was to whoever would listen. In fact, Xiao Tu even went further than that. He had drawn out a massive line with his urine on the eastern front and challenged any Heavenly Human Tribe powerful beings who crossed this line to a battle.
There was no cap on the number of Heavenly Human Tribe powerful beings that could challenge him all at once, and this invitation was extended even to the Heavenly Gods.
Xiao Tu was alive again, and he was back to his old antics. He had many lives to squander, so he could taunt the enemy to his heart’s content, and he was really taking advantage of this.
He had even gathered several million turtle eggs and placed them in front of his line of urine. He proclaimed these to be Heavenly Human eggs, and he roared with laughter as he chomped on those eggs. He was taunting the enemy to such a severe degree that even the Celestial Thearch and the others were fearing for his safety!
Just as Xiao Tu was trying his best to get himself killed, An Lin returned to Yue Tong City.
He immediately went to visit Xu Xiaolan.
Xu Xiaolan welcomed him with a smile. “You seem to be accomplishing earth-shattering feats wherever you go.”
“Hehe, it wasn’t much, don’t mention it.” An Lin gave Xu Xiaolan a massive hug.
Xu Xiaolan was feeling a little awkward. After all, she still had the appearance of an old woman, and it felt a little strange to be embraced by An Lin like this.
An Lin didn’t care about all that. He was content as long as he could feel Xiaolan’s aura and warmth.
“An Lin, I cooked a few new dishes for you. Do you want to taste them?” Xiaolan’s eyes crinkled in a smile under her mask.
“Sure!” An Lin replied with a smile of his own before his hand shot forth like lightning and plucked the mask from Xu Xiaolan’s face.
“What are you doing? Give me back my mask! I don’t want you to see me like this!” Xu Xiaolan panicked and tried to grab the mask.
“But I want to see you in your current state, and this accursed mask is obstructing me.” An Lin ran away as Xu Xiaolan rushed toward him.
“What’s so good about seeing a shriveled old prune like me?” Xu Xiaolan asked as she gave chase.
An Lin looked into Xu Xiaolan’s eyes and gave an earnest response.
“Your smile.”
He could only see Xu Xiaolan’s eyes crinkle up through the two holes on the mask, and for some reason, that really displeased him.
Xu Xiaolan’s footsteps faltered as tears welled up in her eyes.
An Lin couldn’t bear to see her like this, and he immediately rushed to her side. “Please don’t be sad. You can wear the mask if you want to.”
Xu Xiaolan accepted the mask, but she didn’t put it on her face.
An Lin was a little perplexed.
“Do you… do you really not mind seeing me like this?” Xu Xiaolan lowered her head and asked in a faint voice.
An Lin faltered slightly before a smile appeared on his face. He looked at Xu Xiaolan’s wrinkly face and gave his reply.
“Of course I don’t mind. I want to be able to see your face no matter what you look like.”
The mask in Xu Xiaolan’s hands was suddenly set on fire.
She held the burning mask and raised her head. A smile appeared on her face, further accentuating her wrinkles. “Then… I won’t wear a mask ever again!”
Xu Xiaolan had made up her mind. The person she cared about the most didn’t mind seeing her in her current state. As such, there was no point to this mask.
An Lin was very elated and enveloped Xu Xiaolan in another massive hug before leading her to the dining table. “Let’s sample your cooking together!”
The two of them enjoyed a delightful meal.
At the western border of the Tai Chu Continent.
The Heavenly Sea God looked at the headlines on the newspapers in his hands, and he was struck by the urge to throw up blood.
What kind of headlines were these?!
Were these people stupid c*nts?!
An Lin Defeated the Heavenly Sea God With a Single Punch?!
The Heavenly Sea God Is the Weakest Paramount Heavenly God?!
And this! This was the most atrocious one!
The Heavenly Sea God Was the Last Paramount Heavenly God to Descend Upon This World. Could It Be That He’s so Weak Because the Heavenly Dao Had Delivery Complications When Birthing Him?
“Arrrrgh… These f*cking media outlets! I’m going to slaughter all of them!”
The Heavenly Sea God’s enraged roar reverberated throughout the Western Heavenly Gate.
