Chapter 2217 I Cant Die

This time, Long Chen didnt keep that scarf on. Holding Dong Mingyus hand, they went out to have fun.

This day was a festival for the Grand Xias young men and women. Around the midnight hour was when the festivities peaked, when the older crowd and the children returned home.

At this moment, the streets were filled with youngsters. Even the people overseeing the festivities were youngsters, and that was what made it even livelier. Who knows? Perhaps they might encounter their destined partner here.

Earlier today, Dong Mingyu had accompanied Long Xiaoyu in wild snacking and playing. Long Xiaoyu had her own mentality for treating guests. The things that she liked were a bit childish to Dong Mingyu. But Dong Mingyu hadnt had a childhood, so this could make up for some of those lost years. At least, it wasnt boring.

After bringing back Long Xiaoyu, Long Chen brought Dong Mingyu out to do what the other youngsters were doing. Some favored areas were Connected Hearts Bridge and Destined Marriage Mountain.

The two of them acted like ordinary mortals who didnt know how to cultivate. They followed the crowd, hearing all kinds of delightful stories from random people.

Big brother Long Chen, I suddenly really want to be an ordinary person. Dong Mingyu sighed.

Are we not normal? Long Chen smiled.

Im saying that I dont want to be a cultivator. It seems that theyre living a much easier and more relaxed life, said Dong Mingyu.

She was very envious of these people. Their lives were simple. The cultivation world was much crueler.

Long Chen said, Who told you that they live easy and relaxed lives? Every person in this world has hardships in their life. You envy them for being worry-free, while they envy others for being rich, while rich people envy cultivators for having the ability to fly through the skies and live longer lives. You envy others because they have things that you dont have, but no one has everything in this world. A cat likes fish but cant swim. A fish likes eating earthworms but cant go on land. This is just life. Even a god does not have a perfect life. Regretfully, many people dont understand this, and even upon dying, they dont know what kind of life they wanted. When facing troubles, unhappiness is a kind of instinct. But to stiffen your spine and live through those struggles happily is a kind of skill. Just look at me. Im chased down by almost everyone on the continent, but arent I still living happily?

Dong Mingyu smiled. She felt like today was the most fortunate day in her life. It didnt matter how many troubles she encountered. As long as she was with Long Chen, as long as she could hear his voice, see his smile, she didnt have any fear.

Atop Dragon Ring Peak, Dong Mingyu lay in Long Chens embrace, looking at the lanterns down below. The entire capital was illuminated in a soft light. Hearing his jest in her ear, she occasionally laughed.

Eventually, she fell asleep. Looking at her face, Long Chen felt pity. From Dong Mingyu, he had seen another kind of life. The truth was that there werent that many truly evil people in this world.

The majority of people were kind. Dong Mingyu was someone who had been raised as a killing tool, but just one bit of kindness from him had changed her life.

That wasnt because his charisma was so great, but simply that this little bit of kindness had awakened Dong Mingyus true nature inside.

However, many people had already lost sight of their true nature. They lived with no beliefs, blind. Someone who had no limits on themselves was truly frightening.

Even more frightening were the people who had been brainwashed to the point that their own beliefs were gone. Any good in their heart had been sealed by that long-term brainwashing, and they had become weapons with no thoughts of their own.

Long Chen held Dong Mingyu, trying to keep her comfortable. Seeing her sweet smile, Long Chen had an urge to kiss her, but he held back for fear of waking her.

Sleep might be a normal thing to others, but to an assassin, sleeping was a dream that they would never dare to hope for.

Assassins had to be on their highest guard at all times. Even the slightest relaxation could cause them to lose their lives. This was why Dong Mingyu envied ordinary people so much.

In Long Chens embrace, she was finally sleeping soundly like a baby. In this world, there was nowhere safer than Long Chens embrace.

Long Chen looked into the distance. Just now, playing with Dong Mingyu and hearing her laughter had made him forget all his vexations.

However, now that he paused, his thoughts came surging back. He rubbed the nine-line Soul Calming Jade. That was the only thing his birth parents had given him.

He felt that he was getting closer to the truth. But his heart was growing more nervous.

In the past, he had seen a corner of the truth through Future Lake. Later on, Long Chen had asked Li Tianxuan if he could use the Reincarnation Mirror to see more, but Li Tianxuan had said that it was impossible. Back when he had looked into Future Lake, his cultivation base had been lower, making it easier to look back. But even that had almost destroyed the Reincarnation Mirror.

Now that his cultivation base was higher, the Reincarnation Mirror didnt have the ability to look back into his past. Hence, Long Chen had no way of learning his origins this way. He didnt even know if his birth parents were still alive.

He recalled that mans bright laughter. He recalled that womans rebuking which was full of love and concern. He recalled a pair of merciless hands that cut open a babys body and took away his seven-colored blood, Spirit Root, and Spirit Bone.

If that person was my father, then he was very proud and domineering. He would definitely go crazy if his son was taken. If my child was targeted like this, Id definitely tear apart my enemy no matter who it was. But even after so many years, I havent heard of anything so shocking occurring on the Martial Heaven Continent. It seems that my birth parents arent in a good situation Long Chens heart was heavy.

As parents, they definitely wouldnt just allow their son to wander around outside for over twenty years without making a sound.

Just wait. Ill slowly find the truth. Ill make sure corpses pile up until I can climb up to the heavens and paint the sky the color of blood. A hint of killing intent appeared in his eyes. He was full of hatred.

He put himself in his parents shoes. Long Tianxiao and Mrs. Long knew that Long Chen was on the Martial Heaven Continent, and yet they definitely worried about him every day.

As for his birth parents, their child had been stolen from them. That kind of pain was unimaginable. There was no way such a thing could be forgiven.

Suddenly, Dong Mingyu shifted in his arms. She opened her eyes. Big brother Long Chen, do you want to kill someone?

As an assassin, Dong Mingyu was very sensitive to killing intent. She had been roused awake.

Sorry, I didnt mean to disturb you, apologized Long Chen. A peaceful sleep was far too rare for Dong Mingyu.

Its fine. Ive slept for a long time. It seems like this is the first true sleep in my memory. Big brother Long Chen, just tell me who you want to kill and Ill do it. Dong Mingyu wrapped her arms around Long Chens neck. She was serious.

She was fully confident in her assassination abilities. It didnt matter how strong the target was. As long as she found a chance, she could still kill them in one move. Even divine sons or divine daughters like the Pill Fairy and Tian Xiezi were no exception.

Actually, I dont even know who my enemy is. I dont even know who my birth parents are.

Long Chen explained his origin to Dong Mingyu simply. Only then did she learn that Long Tianxiao and Mrs. Long were not his birth parents. Furthermore, Long Chen had even had his Spirit Blood, Spirit Root, and Spirit Bone extracted as a baby.

She had originally felt that she had been met with enough misfortune, but now she found that Long Chen was even more unfortunate. However, he was still living while loving this world.

The suns about to come up.

Long Chen suddenly pointed into the distance. Dawn was breaking. A dark red sun was starting to creep over the horizon and spill its light onto the earth. It warmed the world, nourishing life.

Long Chen didnt remember the last sunrise he had seen. Seeing the sun rise over these flourishing lands, he smiled. Every day was a new beginning.

After the dark came the light. It might be difficult for him to progress right now, but he was confident that as long as he endured, he would be able to walk out of the darkness. The sun would rise.

Lets go. We can see some old friends in the imperial palace.

Long Chen descended the mountain with Dong Mingyu, going to the imperial palace.

They spent a day in the imperial palace before returning to the Wine God Palace. There, they rested for a day before the two of them went to a secret room that the High Priest had prepared for them. Long Chen was preparing to remove the god seed from Dong Mingyu.

The room only held Long Chen and Dong Mingyu. Dong Mingyu was nervous, and her voice quivered. Big brother Long Chen, you have to save me. I wasnt afraid of dying before, but now I am. I want to be with you forever. I cant die.

An assassins first lesson was to be fearless in the face of death. Only then could they maintain absolute calm and make the best choices no matter what happened.

However, the current Dong Mingyu was not fearless. It wasnt dying that she was afraid of so much but no longer being able to be with Long Chen.

Long Chen hugged Dong Mingyu tightly and kissed her forehead.

Trust me.

Long Chen and Dong Mingyu sat in lotus style. Dong Mingyu closed her eyes, and Long Chen pressed a finger against her forehead.

Light erupted from the spot that he pressed. A terrifying divine pressure caused the room to shake.
