448. Chapter 448 Until We Meet Again

Lin Ke did not wait.

Before 'I' made a choice, I kicked Lin Ke's consciousness out of the wondrous space that was immensely vast and immensely tiny.

Immediately, Lin Ke and Mo Li woke up simultaneously from the Seizing House magical device.

The Elemental Saint was absent, the Void Tranquil Heavenly Master was absent, Luotesinuo, Fulisite, Meidiqi were absent, and Ai Rui Si. Ke La Ke was also absent.

Lin Ke and Mo Li walked out of the sleeping chamber of the Seizing House magical device, lightly embraced each other for a moment, then left.

Taking the finest, most expensive star‑faring vessel of the Immortal‑God civilization's foreign‑trade edition that he had plucked from Luotesinuo's hands, Lin Ke brought Mo Li and steered toward the passage between the two universes.

After the star‑faring vessel had been sailing for a while, Mo Li finally spoke up: 'Is it just going to end like this?'

'It just ends like this.'

Lin Ke nodded, then gave a vague explanation: 'This matter itself must be cleverly resolved.'

'Hmm.'

Mo Li also nodded, asking nothing more and saying nothing more.

She simply rested her head lightly on Lin Ke's shoulder, closed her eyes, and drifted slowly to sleep, feeling very at ease.

This time, entering the remnants of the Buddhist civilization via the Seizing House, although it actually didn't help Lin Ke much, Mo Li was still very happy.

Because she didn't let Lin Ke face the pressure alone again.

Because this time she stood beside Lin Ke, and the two fought side by side.

Lin Ke raised his right hand, gently gathered Mo Li's body, and also fell into a deep sleep.

However long the star‑faring vessel sailed, that's how long the two slept peacefully.

They did nothing but simply keep each other company, sleeping peacefully in each other's arms.

One month later, the star‑faring vessel arrived at the passage between the two universes, and only then did Lin Ke and Mo Li wake up together again.

The two walked out side by side from the star‑faring vessel and immediately saw Ai Rui Si. Ke La Ke.

'You two aren't being thoughtful.'

Upon first meeting, Ai Rui Si spoke with an annoyed tone: 'It's been so long—you didn't send a single message, nor reply to any. If I hadn't been paying attention, I wouldn't have known when you arrived.'

Lin Ke smiled without speaking.

Mo Li then released her hold on Lin Ke's arm, stepped forward, and embraced Ai Rui Si.

The two quickly walked aside to whisper privately, ignoring Lin Ke.

'How do you feel?'

Luotesinuo's voice suddenly appeared beside Lin Ke's ear.

'What do you mean?'

Lin Ke smiled and turned the question back, pretending to understand while acting clueless.

Luotesinuo raised a hand and lightly pointed at Lin Ke a few times, wearing the expression of 'you little rascal really fooled your cheap older brother,' yet said: 'How does it feel to finally be free of all burdens?'

Lin Ke chuckled, laughing brightly: 'Relaxed. Never before have I felt so relaxed!'

'Just being relaxed is good.'

Luotesinuo's face likewise broke into a bright smile, he echoed in agreement, then asked: 'What are your plans next?'

'Let's rest for a while.'

Lin Ke thought for a moment, then replied seriously: 'It's been a long time; carrying burdens has thrown my thoughts into disarray, tightened my nerves, and left me without any method in my actions.'

'How long should we rest?'

'I don't know. Maybe a long time, maybe just a day or two?'

'Hmm.'

Having spoken this far, Luotesinuo fell silent, abruptly turned, and waved goodbye.

Lin Ke smiled at the corners of his mouth, watched Luotesinuo walk off into the starlit depths, raised his right hand high, and waved vigorously.

From this posture, Lin Ke inferred that 'I' ultimately still accepted the choice offered by the remnants of the Buddhist civilization.

Either become Maitreya Buddha, or become the Great Peacock Wisdom Mother Ming King.

Those associated with 'I,' such as Ai Rui Si. Ke La Ke, from now on are truly independent.

For example, Luotesinuo completely cleared away the obstacles to regaining the status of a Saint.

This journey into the starlit depths is to accumulate resources, then in one fell swoop ascend to Sainthood.

Next time we meet, we can no longer interact as cheap brothers.

Furthermore, we can no longer address him as a reincarnated Saint.

We must now call out, 'Saint!'

Mo Li and Ai Rui Si's whispered conversation also ended at this point.

The two walked back with their arms linked.

'I'm returning it to you.'

Ai Rui Si raised the held left hand of Mo Li, placed it before Lin Ke, and said, 'Hold it tight, don't let go.'

Lin Ke took Mo Li's left hand, gripped it firmly, then asked, 'Where do you intend to go?'

'To do what I ought to do.'

Ai Rui Si's eyes gazed toward the path Lin Ke and Mo Li had come from, her aura revealing that of a Seventh‑Level Grand Sage, as she said, 'Many people are waiting for me.'

Mo Li opened her mouth, wanting to say something, but ultimately swallowed it back.

Lin Ke frowned slightly: 'Are you sure?'

'I am sure.'

Ai Rui Si nodded calmly, her tone intensifying as she repeated, 'I am sure!'

Lin Ke pondered, then relaxed his brows: "Just be sure. Do what you want to do, don't be like me, always doing what you don't want to do."

"Hmm."

Ai Rui Si responded with a sound, "Thank you for your advice, I will keep it firmly in mind."

After speaking, Ai Rui Si went past Lin Ke and Mo Li, heading back along the path Lin Ke and Mo Li had come.

Lin Ke and Mo Li turned and watched them go.

After walking a stretch, when about to board the starflight vessel belonging to Ai Rui Si. Ke La Ke, Ai Rui Si stopped, didn't turn back, and loudly shouted: "Nice to meet you, remember me, remember my name..."

Ai Rui Si.

Ai Rui Si. Ke La Ke.

The words fell, and Ai Rui Si's figure vanished.

Not long after, the starflight vessel activated, disappearing into the depths of starlight.

"Let's go too."

Mo Li suddenly spoke.

"Hmm, let's go back."

Lin Ke agreed, then took Mo Li's hand and headed toward the passage between two universes.

Not knowing who made the arrangements, Lin Ke and Mo Li didn't wait long before entering a passage used internally by the High Council.

The two passed through the passage very smoothly, returning from the immortal deity civilization universe to the wizard civilization universe.

Just as if, at the other end of the passage, Ai Rui Si and Luo Te Si Nuo were waiting.

At this end of the passage, someone was also waiting for Lin Ke and Mo Li.

There weren't many interactions; before them stood the comrade Mei Di Qi, Seven-level Great Sage, and Fu Li Si Te. De Ao Man De, also a Seven-level Great Sage who had inexplicably donned the High Council's uniform, waiting together.

Mei Di Qi seemed merely to accompany Fu Li Si Te over; after greeting Lin Ke and Mo Li, he said hello and left.

Fu Li Si Te also had some duties, exchanged pleasantries with Lin Ke and Mo Li for a while, then went off to attend to them.

Lin Ke and Mo Li didn't linger long at the High Council, and soon left.

From the High Council's location in Central Plains, returning to the West Coast where the Rui Wo Suo Si Academy is located, teleportation gates cannot be used.

The two drove the transport vehicle, breezing along and singing all the way, returning to Rui Wo Suo Si City, returning to the headquarters of "Do Whatever You Want".

A grand banquet was held that evening.

Asande Konte and Ruini Ke La Ke couple, Pa Luo Sage and Sai Lin Sage couple, Single Dog Ke Di Sage, Mo Fei Old Man, Bo Luo Sa Luo Sa Er, Luo Ken Wizard…

Long-unseen Ti Na, Sha Li Ya, Ai La trio…

Shan Duo La. De Ao Man De, Di Fu Nu. Kelong Na, Fu Li De. Po Si Wa Er, Jie La De…

Five brothers: Ba Ke. Wa Te, Da Er Dun. Kelun, Ai Ji Ao. Li Ji, Di Jie. Fen Li, Lin En. Xiu Yi Te…

Socially anxious trio: Bei Di. Mai Ji, Mi De. Wa Lun Te, Te Li. Nuo Nei Mu/Bu Lu Mu ((╯□╰))…

All wizards acquainted with Lin Ke and Mo Li were present.

Once viewing Linke Grand as their greatest rival, constantly comparing themselves, Lan Ni. Tai Le stood in a corner, holding a glass, gazing at the liquor, silent and still. After some grudge, later Mina. Ha Fu Qie Ke, who had joined "Do Whatever You Want", stood in another corner, shrinking into the shadows yet seeming to bask in the light.

The banquet lasted a long time.

Yet it felt like just a moment.

Everyone chatted happily, joyful and cheerful.

After the event ended, everyone went their separate ways, without feeling sad.

After the banquet ended, Lin Ke and Mo Li returned to their little home.

Daughter Mei Li Ya laughed joyfully as she flung herself into Mo Li's embrace, her little short legs kicking happily.

Lin Ke did not overlook the quiet Jia Luo Na, squatted down, and extended both hands.

Jia Luo Na slowly walked forward, lightly hugged Lin Ke, then quickly released and stepped back.

Seeing this, Lin Ke also did not insist, merely rubbing Jia Luo Na's little head a few times.

"Not tall as a president."

Jia Luo Na pouted her lips and muttered.

The little head, however, was unwilling to break free from Lin Ke's palm, and lightly rubbed against it a few times.

Lin Ke laughed brightly.

No words all night.

Next day.

Early morning.

Lin Ke woke up on time thanks to his biological clock.

He softly called Mo Li awake, got up, washed up, prepared breakfast, then went to Jia Luo Na and Mei Li Ya's bedrooms, and lifted the two sleepy little rascals.

The family, under the service of the smart butler Hamid, happily enjoyed breakfast.

Half an hour later, the family, having packed everything, left the villa.

Mei Li Ya seemed to notice something, turned back and glanced at the guard at the door, the smart butler Hamid who saw the family off.

She lifted her head, looked at Mom Mo Li, then at Dad Lin Ke, and softly said: "I want Hamid."

"Okay."

Lin Ke agreed and waved.

The smart butler Hamid received Lin Ke's order, immediately came over, and went to Mei Li Ya's side.

Jia Luo Na's eyes rolled, realizing she didn't want anything, so she stayed silent.

The family of four, together with the smart butler Hamid, boarded the transport vehicle and left the villa.

Not long after, the transport vehicle arrived at the Rui Wo Suo Si Academy Primary Campus, and picked up Li Shu Wen, whom Lin Ke had arranged to study wizard civilization knowledge at the Library.

"Nothing much, huh?"

Mo Li asked.

"There is."

Lin Ke replied.

"What?"

Mo Li asked again.

Lin Ke just glanced at Ruiwo Si Si Academy, said nothing, and drove the transport vehicle away.

This departure was a real one, without hesitation, without lingering.

The transport vehicle flew out of Ruiwo Si Si District, out of the West Coast, and onto the Storm Sea.

It finally landed on an island reef that had expanded to the size of a football field.

Li Shuwen bade farewell to Lin Ke here and returned to the Mortal Immortal Martial World.

"Master, master, I thought you didn't want me anymore."

After waiting a long time, Fu Lan Duo, who could hardly wait any longer, hurried through the island reef and emerged from the Mortal Immortal Martial World.

After shouting, Fu Lan Duo immediately left Lin Ke, flew to Mo Li's front, sweetly called "Madam," then played with Mei Li Ya and Jia Luo Na.

The three little girls: Jia Luo Na is calm and reserved, Mei Li Ya is not very lively, Fu Lan Duo speaks the most.

However, the chatty Fu Lan Duo quickly became acquainted with the calm Jia Luo Na and the not-so-lively Mei Li Ya.

The three little girls had a lot of fun.

Lin Ke and Mo Li watched, feeling genuine happiness from the heart.

The fire elemental spirit Emily El Samantha Daryl Alphathena, sleeping in the "Sun" of the Mortal Immortal Martial World, is not happy at all.

Because she was forcibly awakened by Lin Ke, her promotion process was also interrupted.

Frowning and about to question, Emily El suddenly stopped, gave Lin Ke a complex glance, then returned to the "Sun" of the Mortal Immortal Martial World, reshaped into a three-legged golden crow, and continued to sleep.

Silence speaks louder than words.

Emily El made her choice through action.

Lin Ke glanced at the sleeping Conanilia in the small world of his consciousness's "Sun," unwilling to wake, and smirked.

"All done?"

Mo Li beside him asked.

"Not yet."

Lin Ke shifted his gaze, looked up at the sky, and said, "We still need to wait a bit."

As his words fell, the figures of the Elemental Sage and the Void Tranquil Heavenly Master suddenly appeared.

The two hovered in midair.

The Elemental Sage had no intention of landing, merely waved at Lin Ke, then vanished.

The Void Tranquil Heavenly Master slowly descended, first greeted Mo Li, then turned to Lin Ke and asked in a deep voice, "Are you truly ready?"

"Yes."

Lin Ke nodded calmly.

"May everything go smoothly for you."

The Void Tranquil Heavenly Master said nothing else, only gave the blessing.

"Thank you."

Lin Ke said sincerely, "Thank you, thank you, everyone."

The Void Tranquil Heavenly Master seemed not to hear Lin Ke's thanks, smiled, and disappeared.

Huff...

After a long exhale, Lin Ke raised his hand and took out the finest, most expensive star‑skiff from the extraterrestrial trade version he had plucked from Lotessno's hands.

After thinking, he changed his mind.

With a thought, the star‑skiff shattered into countless fragments, sank into the reef, and became provisions.

Soon, a "Hummingbird"-class interstellar warship passed through the reef from the Mortal Immortal Martial World and arrived in the Wizard World.

"The Heavenly Shuttle."

Mo Li recognized at a glance that this was the "Hummingbird"-class interstellar warship.

"Yes."

Lin Ke nodded, "The Heavenly Shuttle, my first interstellar warship."

Past events suddenly surfaced in Mo Li's mind.

Back then, Mo Li had watched the "Hummingbird"-class warship with envy.

"Let's go."

Lin Ke's call pulled Mo Li out of her reverie.

A family of six—Linke Grand, Mo Li Kidman, Mei Li Ya Grand, Jia Luo Na Smith, Fu Lan Duo Ger, and the intelligent housekeeper Hamid—boarded the "Heavenly Shuttle" "Hummingbird"-class star‑battleship in turn.

Engines ignited, the "Heavenly Shuttle" set off, but did not fly directly into space.

Gazing at the fleeting Qutep Islands below, Lin Ke's eyes grew deep, and he gripped Mo Li's right hand tightly.

The "Heavenly Shuttle" interstellar warship lingered no longer, rose into the sky, flew out of the Storm Sea, out of the Wizard World's mainland, and headed toward the depths of starlight.

After years, onward without cease.

Until we meet again.
