Chapter 889: Chapter 889: The Spreading Sorrow!

•

…

RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!

The completely collapsed Secret Realm greatly affected the space tunnel and caused the space tunnel to begin crumbling apart like collapsing dominoes.

Zhu Jun hastily summoned out his one-hundred-meter-tall four-tail fox shrouded in sacred golden light with the enormous Golden Wheel of Fortune behind it to hold the collapsing space tunnel!

“Hua’er, quickly carry them out of here~!” Zhu Jun shouted to Zhu Zhenhua.

“Okay, Dad~!” Zhu Zhenhua replied as she also summoned her one-hundred-meter-tall four-tail icy blue fox which emitted an unbearable cold aura, then controlled it to carry all the foxes.

The icy blue fox’s avatar was sprinting as fast as it could while Zhu Zhenhua and all the foxes sat on the icy blue fox’s back.

Zhu Zhenhua worriedly turned her head around to see Zhu Jun only to see that Zhu Jun actually did not follow them.

“NO, DAAAAD~!” Zhu Zhenhua cried out loud to call Zhu Jun, but Zhu Jun only smiled at her instead.

‘Hua’er… Please live well on my behalf from now on. Oh, and don’t always quarrel with Qin Sheng over small things. He is a good guy… Goodbye…’ Zhu Jun whispered to Zhu Zhenhua with telepathy.

Zhu Zhenhua burst into tears after she heard Zhu Jun’s farewell.

She really wanted to turn back and forcefully dragged her dad out of this place with her.

But she also knew that all of them would certainly die if she did that.

“Sob, sob… Why, dad… Just why… If only you listened to my words and came out of this place a few minutes earlier, you might still be alive right now…” Zhu Zhenhua murmured while sobbing in sorrow.

For Zhu Zhenhua, it might not be worth it, but for Zhu Jun, it was really worth exchanging his old self with the lives of a few young fox cubs.

“Yes, it was really worth it.” Zhu Jun smiled in relief as the destruction of the space tunnel slowed down a lot for a few moments when his four-tail fox avatar shrouded in sacred golden light exerted all his strength to stabilize the space tunnel.

The Zhu Jun sighed in regret while muttering: “Unfortunately, I will no longer have the opportunity to see my future grandson or granddaughter…”

Despite Zhu Jun’s sacrifice, it could actually only stall a few breaths of time for them to run further.

The space tunnel was collapsing faster and faster, even Zhu Zhenhua and the other foxes could sense it as if a deadly giant beast was chasing after them so quickly from behind!

“Come on~! Be faster-!” Zhu Zhenhua gritted her teeth nervously as she urged her icy blue fox’s avatar.

“Vi.. Vice Chief…” One of the foxes called with a trembling voice when she saw the collapsing space tunnel approaching them rapidly from behind.

“No, we will not make it at this rate!” The other fox muttered desperately.

“It’s over…” Zhu Zhenhua mumbled as she closed her eyes in despair.

Just when Zhu Zhenhua and all the foxes thought that they were really going to die here… BWOOOOSSH~!

An enormous four-tail fox avatar clad in crimson flame suddenly appeared right in front of them and hugged Zhu Zhenhua’s icy blue fox avatar!

It was actually Qin Sheng’s fox spirit avatar!

“Now~! Pull us out of here!” Qin Sheng yelled out loud to the communication device he held.

Then both the crimson flame fox avatar and the icy blue fox avatar got pulled by a spirit treasure rope toward the end of the space tunnel at breakneck speed!

RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!

BOO00000000000MM-!!!

The entire space tunnel shattered apart and exploded into nothingness.

Fortunately, Qin Sheng, Zhu Zhenhua, and all the foxes managed to get out of the space tunnel on time.

Qin Sheng tightly embraced Zhu Zhenhua while muttering in fright: “Hua’er, thank goodness you are okay! I thought I had lost you forever…”

“Sheng, but my dad… Sob, sob, WAAAAAHH~!” Zhu Zhenhua wept out loud while hugging Qin Sheng tightly.

The feeling of relief and gladness after surviving from life-threatening disaster got washed again by grief and sorrow.

So many of them died… Even their Chief of Exploration Team was also buried forever along with the Secret Realm.

The other surviving foxes also sobbed and cried with Zhu Zhenhua.

It took a while for them to barely recover from their sorrow.

After calming down, they brought the injured and unconscious foxes back to the warship to get treated.

The medical equipment in the warship was complete, and each one of them was top-grade. It did not take long for the injured foxes to recover and the unconscious foxes to wake up.

Of course, it was including Silly Fox, Instructor Mei Lan, and Teacher Li Wei… Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei still did not understand the situation yet since their last memory was getting beaten by the strange creature, but Silly Fox was different…

He was frozen by Zhu Zhenhua when he wanted to rush back to help Tang Li Xue fight against the strange creature before!

“Xue~! Where is Xue?!” Silly Fox looked around and shouted anxiously.

“Calm down. I am sure, Little Xue will be all right.” Instructor Mei Lan said to Silly Fox because she really believed that Tang Li Xue was someone who had great luck as the future Heaven’s Favored child of the Fox Clan after Meng Yue, so she should not die easily.

But Teacher Li Wei still had a bad hunch after he failed to see Tang Li Xue around there.

It should be impossible for Tang Li Xue to wander around without caring about them. Based on Tang Li Xue’s usual behavior, she was supposed to be guarding by their side worriedly until they were cured and regained their consciousness.

The sorrowful atmosphere in the medical room made them not dare to ask around about Tang Li Xue, so they decided to look for Zhu Zhenhua together after they transformed back to their human form and got dressed.

It was not hard to find Zhu Zhenhua since she was also treated in the medical room near their

room.

Even though Qin Sheng was also inside the room to accompany Zhu Zhenhua, but they looked mournful and sorrowful like the others.

Before Instructor Mei Lan and Teacher Li Wei could open their mouth to ask, Silly Fox already rushed toward Zhu Zhenhua and grabbed her collar while asking in an angry voice: “You damn b*tch, tell me where is Xue right now?! If something happens to her, I will make sure you pay

it with your life!”

Zhu Zhenhua gritted her teeth in annoyance as she pushed Silly Fox away while saying: “Just accept it, she is already gone forever.”

“Wh… What did you say? You are lying, right?!” Silly Fox muttered in disbelief.

Zhu Zhenhua stared at Silly Fox blankly and apologized: “My condolence… But that is the

truth… If only…”

Before Zhu Zhenhua could finish her words…

BOOOOOOOOOMM~!

Black destructive lightning suddenly burst out from Silly Fox’s body as he flashed onto Zhu Zhenhua and strangled her in great rage: “No, Xue! It is impossible for my Xue to die! It is all because of you! Why don’t you help her before?! Why don’t you let me help her?! It is all your

fault!”

BAAAANG~!

Qin Sheng immediately pushed Silly Fox away from Zhu Zhenhua until he crashed into the

wall behind him,

Qin Sheng warily stood right in front of Zhu Zhenhua to protect her while saying to Silly Fox, Teacher Li Wei, and Instructor Mei Lan in a solemn tone: “Calm down, everyone. I know you all feel sad after losing someone you love, but you should not blame Hua’er for that.”

“If it was not her who took you all out from the secret realm, and if it was not Hua’er’s father’s sacrifice, you all would have already been buried along with that secret realm right now.” Qin Sheng explained clearly to Silly Fox, Teacher Li Wei, and Instructor Mei Lan. Instructor Mei Lan staggered while kept muttering in disbelief: “Impossible… How could it be?! It should be impossible for Little Xue to…”

Teacher Li Wei hastily caught Instructor Mei Lan from behind before she fell down.

While Silly Fox sat on the ground blankly as if he had lost his soul.

The situation did not reach the point until they fought each other, but the atmosphere was deteriorating until they were drowned in sorrow and grief.

Meanwhile, Elder Yang… or he could also be called Xiao Hei finally managed to fully recover

from the heavy injuries he received from Instructor Mei Lan before.

Not only that, he even got a blessing in disguise and had an opportunity to breakthrough to

the Nascent Soul Stage in one fell swoop!

RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!

BOOOOOOOOMM~!

After withstanding the last lightning tribulation, Xiao Hei finally stepped into the early

Nascent Soul Stage successfully!

Xiao Hei exhaled the turbid air as he slowly opened his eyes.

He should have felt happy since he could reach Nascent Soul Stage so quickly, but Tang Li

Xue’s cold words kept echoing in his mind again and again which made him gloomy and

depressed.

“You do not need to thank me. This is my last help for you. From now on, we will be complete strangers.”

“What do you mean by that, Xiao Bai?”

“I said never call me Xiao Bai again! And I do not want to hear any more of your nonsense.”

“Goodbye… Elder Yang of Immortal Sword Sect.”

Xiao Hei covered his face with both of his palms while muttering: “Why is it become like this?

Xiao Bai, I really miss you so badly…”

Then Xiao Hei jumped from his seat and widened his eyes while staring in the direction where

the secret realm collapsed.

His body suddenly tensed, and even his heart palpitated violently.

He gritted his teeth as cold sweat drenched his forehead and back.

He clenched his fists so tightly until his blood was dripping onto the ground.

“No, this is impossible?! Xiao Bai… What is this feeling?! Why I cannot feel Xiao Bai’s presence anymore?!” Xiao Hei howled sorrowfully while staggering backward. Even though Xiao Hei and Tang Li Xue were separated by a long distance, but his mother’s

ring necklace was still with Tang Li Xue, so he should still be able to sense Tang Li Xue’s presence, unless something untoward happened to her.

“No way, this is not real… This should only be a bad dream.” Xiao Hei muttered derangedly

while holding his head with both of his hands.

RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~! RUMBLE~!

The clear blue sky rapidly turned dark, and the ground shook greatly as something inside Xiao

Hei was awakening because of his grief and sorrow.

His eyes turned crimson red like blood as the silhouette of a pitch-black demon emerged

from his body.

The Asura Demon God bloodline in Xiao Hei’s body actually got awakened!
