Chapter 4769
“Miss Hua, thank you…”
Kai looked at Hua Yueying, but before he could finish speaking, he saw her body plummeting toward the ground. She was aging rapidly!
“Miss Hua!”
Kai was stunned. In an instant, he vanished and reappeared, catching Hua Yueying in his arms.
Her face was deathly pale, and her breathing was weak.
“Mr. Chen, I won’t be able to assist you anymore. From here on, you must rely on yourself. But before that, could you reward me with more fairy stones for my efforts?”
Hua Yueying opened her eyes and smiled faintly.
“Don’t worry, I’ll give you 100,000—no, 200,000 fairy stones! I will help you break through the Mahayana peak and step into the realm of immortality!”
Kai vowed earnestly.
“Good. If I can bring this rain to the world, then sacrificing half my life was worth it!”
Hua Yueying smiled. She had gambled everything on this moment, and now she knew she had made the right choice.
Suddenly, a beam of light descended from above, and an elderly man appeared. He wore a purple Taoist robe, a Taoist crown on his head, and carried a black iron sword—an odd contrast to his refined attire.
“Who is causing this battle? And who summoned this rain of blessings?”
As soon as he arrived, the spatial formation Kai had set up shattered instantly, and Elder Qian’s Dao deduction technique was restored.
Everyone was stunned, their minds filled with confusion.
Lin Kefan’s eyes lit up. He quickly stepped forward and bowed.
“Uncle, Lord of the Northern Territory…”
The old man glanced at Lin Kefan and frowned slightly.
“Who are you?”
“Uncle, I am Lin Kefan, the fourth prince of Sun and Moon City!” Lin Kefan introduced himself eagerly.
“Oh, the son of Fellow Daoist Lin? No wonder you look familiar.”
The Lord of the Northern Territory chuckled.
“How has your father been? It’s been a while since we last met.”
“My father is doing well. Uncle, you should visit Sun and Moon City when you have the time!” Lin Kefan responded respectfully.
The Lord of the Northern Territory’s expression darkened as he surveyed the scene.
“Why are you fighting in my Northern Territory, damaging my mountains, and disturbing my cultivation?”
“Uncle, these people tried to kill us! We had no choice but to fight back. They used their strength to bully the weak—such shameless behavior! I hope you will uphold justice!”
Lin Kefan spoke with a face full of grievance.
The Tenth Palace Lord’s face turned red with anger upon hearing this.
Shameless!
Was there no limit to twisting the truth?
He was the one who had been chased down and beaten, yet now he was playing the victim?
Where was the justice in that?
The Lord of the Northern Territory cast a glance at the Tenth Palace Lord but remained silent. Instead, his eyes fell on Hua Yueying, who lay weakly in Kai’s arms. Without hesitation, he took out a pill and placed it into her mouth.
Almost instantly, Hua Yueying’s strength returned. Her face regained some color, and she quickly freed herself from Kai’s embrace, her cheeks slightly flushed.
“Thank you, Lord of the Northern Territory…”
She bowed respectfully.
“No need for thanks just yet. What is your name? And why has this sweet rain descended upon the world?”
The Lord of the Northern Territory asked seriously.
“My name is Hua Yueying, and this sweet rain is my mother’s unique technique…”
Hua Yueying replied.
Upon hearing this, the Lord of the Northern Territory’s expression changed. He stepped forward suddenly, gripping her shoulders.
“Is your mother Hua Liandie?”
Hua Yueying’s eyes widened in surprise.
“How do you know my mother’s name?”
The Lord of the Northern Territory’s voice trembled with urgency.
“How is she? Is she well?”
A sorrowful look crossed Hua Yueying’s face, and her eyes welled up with tears.
“My mother… she passed away. She succumbed to inner demons and suffered a backlash during cultivation.”
“What?”
The Lord of the Northern Territory’s entire body shook. His face paled, his voice thick with grief.
“It was me… I killed her…”
Kai, watching from the side, immediately understood.
The Lord of the Northern Territory must have had a deep connection with Hua Yueying’s mother.
