Chapter 182: Chapter 180: Over and Over Again!_1
Although they had met more times in the past few months than some long-distance couples, the point was, once separated, they couldn't just sd a daily greeting or talk over the phone like ordinary lovers. Once apart, they would be in a state of no communication.
Before leaving, Mu Huanqing spoke, "Ah Ran, I heard from the gerals in the war zone that a major attack occurred in the city where you study. All the investigators st by the Tianjiang died. You must be very careful and not play the hero wh countering danger. Protecting yourself is most important."
Fang R nodded seriously on the surface, but inside he felt no ripples; after all, one-third of the people in that investigation group had be killed by him during the incidt at Linglong Bay.
"Of course, I know that. If something like that happs again, I definitely won't recklessly rush in to save people," said Fang R. "After all, I have to think about you and our child."
Mu Huanqing saw his serious promise and hugged him with a smile, "It's really good that you think this way. Although I, as a human geral, should see saving others' lives as my duty, I do not wish for you to do the same. Your cultivation talt is high, but you ar't that strong yet. I'm afraid something might happ to you."
"Alright, don't worry. I'm quite selfish, and there's no way I would sacrifice myself for others," Fang R said with a laugh.
"Just keep kidding yourself. Don't I know you?" Mu Huanqing gave him a look, "With your personality, if someone calls out to you for help, you will definitely run to the rescue."
"That... depds on the situation. I definitely won't just go in and get myself killed," Fang R said awkwardly.
"Also, there's something else: you must never reveal your cultivation level," Mu Huanqing said seriously. "This attack was initiated by the Nightfall Organization. Their goal was to turn some cultivators into monsters that could serve their organization through experimts.
But they lack some of the technical expertise for the experimts, so they chose to hijack the talts from a Tianjiang lab to help them perfect the experimts, leading to that attack. Just remember, if you stay at school as a mortal, the Nightfall Organization won't capture you, and it will be relatively safer."
The seriousness on Mu Huanqing's face made Fang R's heart grow heavy.
Turning black into !
But it wasn't Mu Huanqing's fault; it was Ctral Area that twisted the facts.
Ever since Ctral Area released the news, everyone on the outside believed it without doubt, let alone Mu Huanqing, a geral from Ctral Area. Naturally, she would choose to trust the information released by Ctral Area.
However, from Mu Huanqing's words, Fang R could confirm that not ev gerals like Mu Huanqing were aware of the existce of Indra Sky, aside from certain big shots and the Tianjiang Investigation Group.
It seemed that some people in Ctral Area were very afraid of exposing the true nature of Indra Sky to the public, giv their inhumane methods. With countless gerals and warriors below, there were definitely many who opposed them.
Thus, as long as the true appearance of Indra Sky was revealed to some of the great gerals, the hearts of Ctral Area's people would naturally divide. Th, the Nightfall Organization would find it much easier to deal with some of the rulers.
Although he had many thoughts in his heart, Fang R still kept a smile on his face, "You know I've always liked to keep a low profile. I only reveal my cultivation level in front of people I know well."
"Ah Ran is discreet, indeed, but sometimes too kind," Mu Huanqing said.
"Don't worry."
After a final bout of affection, Mu Huanqing once again sured herself with a silver aura, which transformed into her battle armor. The Silver Wheel behind her continuously emitted a holy light, floating and spinning in mid-air.
Watching her don the sacred battle armor again, Fang R couldn't help feeling down, "I suddly feel so powerless."
"What's wrong?"
Mu Huanqing saw the sudd sadness on his face, stopped her steps to leave, and hugged him again, "Ah Ran, you have much more talt than I do, how can you speak of being powerless?"
Fang R shook his head, his voice very low, "Other m's wives spd their pregnancy at home, resting and joying their best days, with their husbands' wholehearted care, but you have to rush to the battlefield, fighting against those powerful monsters...
and I, now I don't ev have the ability to marry you and bring you home, let alone give you a peaceful vironmt for the pregnancy, to live peaceful days."
Mu Huanqing listed to his words, and her beautiful eyes trembled slightly. Following that, some emotions inside her heart suddly became agitated.
She held Fang R's hands ev tighter, and her facial expression also became very complex. As this emotional surge welled up, she didn't know what words to use to express herself.
"Ah Ran..."
She buried her face in Fang R's neck, softly calling out to him.
"Hmm," he replied, his mood low.
"Thank you for everything in the past, they led me to you," Mu Huanqing whispered.
"What's wrong?" Fang R touched her head.
"I suddly feel that not having missed you is my greatest fortune in three lifetimes."
"But I hav't done well, I can't ev make you happy in some trivial matters..."
"Meeting you is already my greatest happiness," Mu Huanqing shook her head and continued in a soft voice, her face buried in his neck, "The little happiness that I don't have, I don't care about, but I didn't expect that this little happiness, in your eyes, you care so much about it, ev to the point that you feel so sad because I hav't got it."
"This is what you should have..." Fang R said.
"It's okay, as long as I can be with you, as long as I can safely give birth to our little one, ev if it means going to the Void Hole, I would be willing to exterminate all the Void beasts," Mu Huanqing said seriously, word by word.
Fang R suddly clched his teeth, the complexity and intsity of his emotions reaching a peak.
All she wanted was to be with him, to safely have a child with him, to lead an ordinary life. It was that simple! Why wouldn't the world allow it!
Damn it!
It was because his cultivation level was progressing too slowly, too slowly!
And because of that, she had to go to the battlefield ev while pregnant!
At this momt, a towering wave of murderous aura spread from his heart, like layers of blackness traveling through his body, and began to corrupt his heart, from the outside to the inside, turning it completely black.
Time and again, these situations made him realize his own weakness.
Time and again, wh he was satisfied with his cultivation talt, similar situations happed again and again, making him set ev higher standards for himself, higher and higher.
He had to be ev faster, ev faster!
Sev years?
No, that won't do.
Now, he wanted to give his woman a quiet place to rest well in the few months before childbirth, not to fight on the battlefield.
