Chapter 78: Who Dares to Gossip, I
At the same time, the One Hundred and Eight Stars Alignment above the void aligned completely; the correct time... had arrived!
In an instant, the horizon was torn apart by an invisible force, and the light of the Star poured down like a waterfall, dyeing the night sky a brilliant purple!
Each star transformed into an ancient Rune, slowly rotating and intertwining in the air to form a mysterious and unfathomable star map!
A violent wind suddenly rose, clouds churned, and the sound of thunder was incessant. In the very center of the star map, a dazzling light shot into the sky, piercing the firmament and splitting the night in two!
A gap also appeared at this position, blocked by a layer of golden film.
And the world behind the golden film was, precisely... the Immortal Domain!
Liuli heard the commotion, turned her head, and looked at the void with a solemn expression. Without her even needing to speak, the three brothers shot into the sky in an instant, each unleashing their great divine abilities to strike!
"Heaven-opening Double Pupil, Nine Nether appear!"
Lin Wunian's Double Pupil shone brightly as he unleashed his ultimate technique. Countless pairs of eyes appeared, peering into the world behind the golden film, before finally merging into one. A terrifying beam of light, carrying the power to burn the heavens and boil the seas, surged toward that golden film!
"Supreme Tribulation Light!"
Lin Wuliu's figure flashed, his chest glowing with surging light. Like a pouring galaxy, beams of divine light flew out from his Supreme Bone, striking the golden film directly!
Boom, boom, boom!
Under the divine abilities of the two, cracks appeared on the golden film, visible to the naked eye!
"One punch, two punches, three punches!"
Lin Wuli was much simpler; he just kept throwing punches. Golden light surged within his body, his muscles knotted, possessing the exact same Innate Sacred Body Dao Fetus aura as Lin Potian!
The first punch was thrown, the wind of the fist like a dragon, carrying the sound of mountains collapsing and seas roaring!
The second punch was unleashed, the roar of tigers and dragons shaking the world!
The third punch was unleashed, and Lin Wuli directly drew upon the origin of the Sacred Body Dao Fetus within his body; his power and momentum reached their peak!
Crack...!
The golden film could not bear the burden and shattered with a roar!
Fragments scattered in all directions, like a meteor shower streaking across the horizon!
A corner of the Immortal Domain behind it was visible at a glance!
Lin Potian narrowed his eyes slightly, unable to stop himself from looking over.
He saw clouds and mist swirling within, Immortal Qi curling, and magnificent palaces floating in the void, shimmering with light and emitting a faint fluorescence!
Looking further down, exotic flowers and rare herbs covered the ground, colorful butterflies fluttered, and Immortal cranes spread their wings. In the distance, a waterfall larger than the entire Heavens poured down from above the Thirty-Three Heavens, and at the very top, a small wooden hut was actually built, overlooking the entire Immortal Domain!
Lin Potian's pupils shrank, and he could not help but gasp in shock:
"Which senior is it that lives there? Their cultivation realm must have reached an unimaginable level!"
Liuli looked up, then immediately turned her head to look at Lin Potian with a strange and surprised expression.
Her cheap husband was able to obtain such a divine object as the Heaven-reaching Token, yet he didn't know who lived up there?
How could this be!
Moreover, her cheap husband had that person's Immortal Emperor Qi in his body; how could he not know who that person was?
He must be pretending to be profound!
She secretly slandered him in her heart, 'Lin Potian, you're faking it, you're faking it too much. I was wondering why your courage suddenly grew so big that you dared to find a vixen; so it turns out you found an invincible backer and started looking down on me!'
Immediately, Liuli rolled her eyes and snapped angrily: "Lin Potian, don't play dumb with me. Even so, you cannot bully me; my maiden family is not to be trifled with either!"
"Ah?"
Lin Potian was completely stunned. What playing dumb?
He really didn't understand!
Liuli's beautiful eyes stared straight at Lin Potian, and she continued gloomily:
"I don't care what story you had with that vixen before, and I can choose not to hold anything against you, but if you don't make a clean break with that vixen and leave me with a troubled heart, I will... cut off your third leg!"
Having said that, Liuli glanced downward.
Upon hearing this, Lin Potian's tiger-like body shook instantly; he was truly frightened!
When Liuli spoke, she always meant what she said, so she really dared to do it!
"But I really have nothing with her, Liuli, you really misunderstood!"
Lin Potian wore a bitter smile.
"Shut up! The children are already this big, you have no shame!"
Liuli snorted coldly and headed straight for the Immortal Domain gap without looking back.
Seeing this, Lin Potian felt empty inside. Although he was always being scolded by Liuli, his heart felt warm, but he hadn't expected that upon meeting, they would have to part again.
And he couldn't stop her; Liuli was going back to find her missing father, his father-in-law Chu Zhenting. Both in terms of emotion and reason, he could not stop her.
If it weren't for the fact that there were still things left undone in the Heavens, Lin Potian would have even wanted to take the whole clan to the Immortal Domain right now!
He really... didn't want to separate!
'However, it is simpler for me to go up. My good son said that their mother lost all her cultivation and became a Heaven-Condemned Person because she fled to the lower realm, which is why she needed the correct time and place. I, however, do not need that; I only need my combat power to reach Immortal King Perfection to blast open the gap.'
'It's fine, it won't take many days. Once all the matters in the Heavens are resolved, I will lead the entire Lin Family to the Immortal Domain!'
Thinking of this, Lin Potian felt a little better.
"Liuli, take care on your way!"
"And be careful of Ji Lushen. That man is vengeful and might cause trouble for you and the sons. Don't push yourself, hide from him a bit, and don't get hurt!"
Immediately, Lin Potian spoke with a worried expression.
Liuli trembled slightly, a faint arc appearing at the corner of her mouth, her heart warming.
However, she remained cold on the surface, waving her hand and saying: "Got it, got it! You're acting like a woman. I have my own pace, and besides, my Chu Family is not afraid of his Ji Family!"
Having said that, she was about to take her sons' hands and enter the Immortal Domain.
But when she reached for Lin Wunian and Lin Wuli, she grabbed nothing...
"Mother, your Chu Family is very powerful, and even if we went, we couldn't help you with anything, but we haven't seen Father for too long, and we want to spend more time with him."
"We hope... Mother will agree!"
Lin Wunian lowered his brow and, pulling Lin Wuli, knelt down before Liuli.
Before Liuli could even reply, Lin Wuliu was visibly stunned; why hadn't they discussed this with him?
He didn't want to go to the Upper Immortal Domain either!
He knelt down immediately, kowtowed three times with a loud *thud, thud, thud*, and bared his teeth: "Mother, I don't want to go up either. The Immortal Domain is too unfamiliar to us, and we wouldn't be able to help you with anything..."
"Besides, we three brothers have already accompanied Mother for one hundred thousand years, but Dad has walked through the long years all alone; he has truly suffered too much!"
Seeing this, Lin Wunian and Lin Wuli sighed slightly together; there was an even deeper reason why the two of them did not want to go up.
That was that the Chu Family was surnamed Chu, while they... were surnamed Lin!
Lin Wunian felt extremely bitter inside: 'Mother is the eldest daughter of the Chu Family, one of the four great families of the Immortal Domain, and is naturally supreme and noble, but what about us three brothers... what are we?'
'If we go to the Chu Family, it will not only be bad for Mother's reputation, but we will also face endless cold shoulders and criticism; living under someone else's roof and having to watch others' expressions to survive—it's better not to go up!'
The three brothers knelt down in unison; Liuli could not believe it, stepped back three paces, and said with a heart-stricken face:
"But the Immortal Path of the Heavens is severed; you will have no progress here! If you return to the Chu Family, with the assistance of countless cultivation resources, your realms will surpass everyone else! Mother is truly doing this for your own good; I just want you to become successful!"
The three brothers looked at each other and stubbornly shook their heads.
"Mother, we really don't want to go."
"You, you! Are you trying to anger Mother to death before you'll be satisfied?"
Liuli clutched her chest; her already fair jade face turned even paler!
Her heart was filled with extreme pain; she only wanted the three brothers to become successful, but why were her three sons, who had always been obedient and followed her every word, defying her in unison today?
Just at this moment, Lin Potian stepped out!
He arrived behind the three of them and knocked a chestnut on one of their heads!
"Ouch, Dad, what are you doing~"
The three brothers felt the pain instantly and turned their heads to look at Lin Potian with teary eyes.
Lin Potian's eyes widened into circles, and he spoke in a rage: "I don't need you to show filial piety yet; I can still move, I'm stronger than you, tougher than you, and more ferocious than you—what kind of damn filial piety are you showing?"
"And look at your mother; she is only a Half-step Red Dust Immortal. What if she encounters danger? What then?"
"Aren't you just afraid that after going to the Chu Family, you'll be gossiped about, face criticism, and live a life under someone else's roof?"
"Don't tell me you're actually afraid of those Chu Family members? If anyone gossips about you, won't it be fine if you just stuff their mouths with your fists?"
No one knows a son like his father; Lin Potian basically stated the whole problem in one sentence.
"No, whoever gossips about us, we three brothers will just beat them up, but we are more afraid of Mother's reputation being affected; after all, our origins... are not legitimate!"
Lin Wunian looked bitter; if one really calculated it, Mother belonged to those who privately fled the Heavens, and the Chu Family of the Immortal Domain had no idea of the existence of the three of them. If Mother brought them back, what would that count as?
"This... this is indeed a problem."
Lin Potian scratched his head, momentarily speechless; the people of the Immortal Domain were all arrogant, and they would certainly gossip, making it inevitable for Liuli to suffer criticism.
"Whoever dares to gossip, I will kill them! Whoever wants to separate us mother and sons, I will kill them!"
"Furthermore, once your dad goes up to the Immortal Domain, I will issue a marriage proposal and marry him!"
"Once you have a legitimate status, you will directly and openly compete with the Chu Family geniuses for the position of Young Master candidate; you must crush them! I am the eldest daughter of the Chu Family, so the head of the Chu Family can only be one of you three brothers!"
"Just as your dad said, if anyone dares to talk nonsense, you just stuff their mouths with your fists!"
Liuli's expression was cold, but upon learning that her precious sons were worried about this issue, her attitude instantly became tough!
Lin Potian was overjoyed; wouldn't the problem be successfully solved this way?
But wasn't Liuli being a bit too tsundere?
A tiny Half-step Red Dust Immortal, in the Immortal Domain where experts are as numerous as clouds, who could she kill?
Wait, Liuli also said that after he, Lin Potian, went up, she would marry him?
Damn!
That is simply turning the heavens upside down!
