Chapter 480: Starfall
After so many years together, he knew every sensitive spot on her body.
Before long, Sang Luo was limp in his arms, panting softly.
"You—!"
Her cheeks were flushed, but she was also annoyed, and she opened her mouth to bite his broad, straight shoulder hard.
She wanted to give him a child, but! He wouldn't let her!
Lan Cang groaned, but didn't retort.
Sang Luo was even angrier, biting her lip in shame and indignation, "Could it be that you really can't do it anymore, or... do you not feel anything for me anymore!"
The man opened his eyes and looked at her dazedly, his handsome and mature face flushed with a seductive blush.
When Sang Luo saw him like this, and recalled the unique and passionate moments that made her blood rush, her face flushed and her heart beat so fast that she could barely breathe, and an unknown fire shifted downwards, creating an explosive sensation!
Sang Luo took a deep breath and pushed Lan Cang away forcefully, straightening her clothes, "...Forget it, if you don't want it, then don't. I'll bring the children over to play often when I have time."
"Luo Luo..." But he hugged her tightly again, extremely reluctant to let go.
He buried his head in the hollow of her neck and only spoke after a long time.
"You just finished giving birth not long ago, rest well first, we'll talk about it later."
...
A few days later, Fei Yuan returned. He first went to the Phoenix Palace and, not seeing anyone, found his way to the Northern Continent.
"Why did you come back alone? Where are Yan and Minos?" Sang Luo asked, munching on a fruit.
This was a unique spiritual jelly fruit from the Northern Continent. It had a cold and糯 (nuò, glutinous) texture when eaten. It wasn't big, making it perfect as a snack. Lan Cang had stocked up quite a bit for her.
"Minos had matters to attend to at the Holy Palace and went back first. Yan is still in the God Realm. I'm here to take you to the God Realm. Didn't you always clamor about wanting to stroll around the God Realm? I'll take you over to play."
"Did you guys come out of the Ghost Realm?"
"The Ghost Realm isn't a good place. The ghostly aura there is extremely corrosive to the divine soul and shouldn't be stayed in for too long. We destroyed the portal hidden in the God Realm after we came back."
Fei Yuan's phoenix eyes curved up, smiling beautifully, "The God Realm is safe now. How about it? Luo'er, do you want to take the children over to play?"
"Alright, Xiao Qi and the others said a long time ago that they wanted to see the God Realm. It just so happens that Quan Jin told me a few days ago that Xiao Qi and Xiao Yuan have woken up. They've been cooped up in the Dragon Tomb for so long. You take them out for a spin."
"Aren't you going?" Fei Yuan asked in surprise.
Sang Luo paused and said, "The God Realm doesn't have much appeal to me. I won't bother with it."
"No, you have to go this time."
Sang Luo sensed a hint of conspiracy and glared at him, "You're trying so hard to trick me into going to the God Realm, you wouldn't still be harboring other intentions, would you?"
"Why is Little Luo'er so wary? Your husband wouldn't harm you～"
"Luo Luo has the power of the Divine Tree in her body. Phoenix Emperor is here for this matter, right?" Lan Cang walked over with a fruit platter.
Fei Yuan gave him an appreciative look, "That's right. The Blood Lotus Fruit that Luo Luo consumed back then was the last divine fruit left behind by the Divine Tree's life force. Unlike ordinary divine fruits, that Reincarnation Divine Fruit contained the essence of the Divine Tree's inheritance, which is the divine power necessary for the Divine Tree's rebirth."
"I originally took out the fruit seed containing the Divine Tree's divine power from Luo Luo's body and transplanted it back to the God Realm to grow, but after the Divine River withered this time, that Divine Tree withered again. Luo Luo still has residual divine power in her blood, perhaps it can revive the Divine Tree again."
"In that case, I'll pack up and leave tonight," Sang Luo said to Fei Yuan, "Before I go, I'll say a few more words to Cang Cang."
Fei Yuan nodded, not wanting to disturb them further, "Call me when you're ready, I'll come pick you up."
"Mm."
Fei Yuan teleported away.
Sang Luo turned around and hugged Lan Cang, deeply inhaling the scent on his body, lingeringly saying, "I'm afraid I'll be leaving for a long time again this time."
Lan Cang knew that she wanted to stay because of him. His warm and dry palms stroked her long hair downwards to comfort her, "Luo Luo, the God Realm needs you. Go do whatever you want to do, I'll be waiting for you at home."
...
In the evening, Fei Yuan came over, "Luo'er, do you have any more instructions?"
"None, let's go." Sang Luo summoned the children over.
When the children heard that they were going to the God Realm immediately, they were excited and overjoyed.
"Be good, don't run around, stick close to Mother and Uncle Fei Yuan." Sang Luo was also holding a small red flag in her hand. The children were lined up behind him according to their size, standing obediently.
A key emitting seven-colored divine light appeared in Fei Yuan's hand, tearing through the void, and the crack formed a gate to another realm.
The gate to another realm was dark and empty, and nothing could be seen.
But once a person stepped into the gate, they would instantly disappear.
Lan Cang gazed at the direction in which they had disappeared, standing there for a long time, then turned around and returned to the study.
Years passed.
Sang Luo didn't return again.
Reviving the Divine Tree was extremely long and extremely painstaking, and it would probably take decades to see any results.
...
City Lord's Mansion, study.
Lan Cang finished revising a proposal and suddenly covered his mouth and coughed violently.
"City Lord, your illness has flared up again." Someone skillfully brought over a decoction.
"It's nothing, it's an old ailment." Lan Cang covered his mouth and shook his head, his voice somewhat weak, "Take all these medicines down. There's no need to send them anymore in the future."
"But... City Lord, your body..." The attendant caught a glimpse of the tissue in the City Lord's hand, which was stained with blood!
His expression changed drastically, and he knelt down on the ground with a "plop", begging, "City Lord, your body is important, you should drink the medicine first!"
Lan Cang shook his head and smiled bitterly, "These medicines are useless to me."
He knew his current body all too well.
In hundreds of years, Ice Breaking City had developed into one of the six main cities of the Northern Continent, condensing half of his life's efforts, but Lan Cang's body was getting worse and worse.
He sought medical advice and medicine for many years, and even asked the God Sovereign to examine him. His body had no ailments, but he was gradually weakening, making it difficult to find the root cause.
He could only attribute it to the pollution source crystal that he accidentally swallowed as a child. Perhaps it had already penetrated deep into his limbs and bones, into every bit of his flesh and marrow, unable to be completely eradicated, becoming a part of him, both helping him transform from an ordinary wolf beast and shortening his lifespan.
When he was young and strong, he could still resist the corrosion of the pollution source, but once his body became old and weak, the pollution source would intensify and devour his flesh.
Lan Cang knew that his days were numbered, and he had already prepared everything, slowly transferring the power in his hands to his son and daughter to manage. Matters beyond their capabilities were also entrusted to his trusted subordinates, assisting the three children in creating a world of their own.
At this point, he no longer had any regrets.
...
Sacred Domain.
Holy Palace, quiet room.
Minos suddenly opened his eyes, and golden light appeared in his azure pupils. He got up and summoned an attendant to go to the Star Divination Hall.
As soon as he entered the hall, a vast and boundless star chart appeared on the ground, and the space quickly changed. Countless stars swirled around him, as if he had fallen into a sea of stars.
Minos's fingertips flowed with golden light, and the sea of stars changed and moved, eventually stopping in one place.
There was an extremely bright star above the sky, and several stars swirled around it, like stars surrounding the moon, clustered together.
Minos looked at the brightest star and a faint smile outlined his lips.
But suddenly, he discovered that one of the nearby stars was weakening and dimming, turning into a streak of light and disappearing.
Minos was stunned.
A few seconds later, he quickly wrote a letter with spiritual power, informing Sang Luo, who was far away in the God Realm, of the news.
It was just discovered that there will be double monthly tickets around New Year's Day!
It's the last day of the month, babies, if you have tickets, give me some～ Love you!
