As a father, I just want to quietly watch you live a long life

Chapter 1703: Chapter 445: Devouring the Four Heavenly Kings—Li Che Breeds Monsters, Heart Unstained as Pure Heart Completes Fifth Transformation [Monthly Ticket Requested]

Whoooosh——

The wild storm howled, bending many trees that spanned across the mountains and forests.

Two enormous deep pits emerged in the earth.

Rainwater poured down, cold and relentless, drifting down from the dense leaden clouds.

Jin Taixui panted heavily, gasping as he frantically ran back, standing before the two deep pits, his pupils dilated, bloodshot, staring at the two figures within the pits.

Zhou Peng looked grotesque, pulling and holding onto Yun E’s finger.

But, his ugly face was filled with tranquility and satisfaction, as if... just holding Yun E’s finger was like holding his own world, immensely joyful.

Yun E’s entire body emitted a cool lunar glow, her porcelain-like skin covered with fine cracks, as if it could shatter at any moment, scattering like debris on the ground.

The cold rainwater poured down.

Jin Taixui knelt on the ground, his eyes filled with pain, having trained for so many years at Wushen Mountain, crawling out of the mountains of corpses and seas of blood, Jin Taixui was supposed to be numb to death.

Because during the trials at Wushen Mountain, countless children, Divine Children, would perish each time.

Yet, witnessing the deaths of Zhou Peng and Yun E brought an excruciating heartache to Jin Taixui; they were his few friends.

Jin Taixui recalled many scenes, all of them adventuring together in the martial world, on Guangling Dao, on the official road, on the Grand Canal...

Playing around, taking risks, exploring together...

Laughter, joy, facing storms together, showing charm together.

Kneeling on the ground, Jin Taixui only felt his own weakness and powerlessness, tears sliding down his cheeks, his face contorting as he cried.

He, who was usually strong, rarely cried.

Suddenly.

The rain twisted and was torn apart by a terrifying force.

Two figures appeared beside him, and Jin Taixui, sniffling, lifted his head, and through the rain that distorted his face, he saw Li Che and Xi Xi.

Seeing Xi Xi, Jin Taixui’s previously worried heart suddenly relaxed.

Xi Xi was holding Li Che’s hand, her expression somewhat melancholic.

She turned her head towards the pits, where the two figures lay holding hands, and felt her heart clog a bit, as if an endless sadness was overwhelming her chest.

"Dad..."

"Xi Xi... Yun E is gone..."

Xi Xi’s emotions became extremely low, and large teardrops rolled down from her eyes.

It was hard to tell if it was rain or tears.

Li Che’s dark robe fluttered wildly, his black, vigorous hair was wildly swept by the wind and rain, as he gently rubbed Xi Xi’s head, his gaze falling onto the two figures in the deep pits who had exhausted the Temple God’s power and perished.

"No, they’re just sleeping."

Li Che gently ruffled Xi Xi’s head, smiling as he spoke.

Xi Xi blinked, looking up at Li Che, knowing she may be young but not foolish.

Zhou Peng and Yun E’s life force had vanished...

Yet, Xi Xi did not refute it; maybe Dad was just trying to comfort her?

"Don’t worry, dad will go wake them up." Li Che smiled.

Xi Xi was truly dumbfounded this time, but her eyes inevitably showed a hint of hope.

Resurrection...

Could it really be done?

Xi Xi thought of the mysterious Underworld, so many powerful teachers there, it should be possible, right?

Jin Taixui also stood up, wiped away his tears, saying little, but hearing the conversation between Li Che and Xi Xi, he too felt a bit numb.

Li Che patted Xi Xi’s head, then released Xi Xi’s hand, taking a step forward, appearing beside Zhou Peng and Yun E.

Zhou Peng looked grotesque, with a pig-like head, and two tusks curved skyward, a fierce aura emanating.

Meanwhile, Yun E appeared more beautiful, and neither resembled children anymore, having become adults, that which was the Temple God’s power dormant deep within their souls.

"Reincarnated Temple God..."

Li Che’s eyes flickered, softly exhaling.

The next moment, he focused his spirit.

Wrap up their bodies, and disappeared from the deep pits.

When reappearing, it was already in Mo City.

Shhhh——

Rainwater falling in Mo City from the Heavenly Dome contained the power to repair the damaged city. It wasn’t that it always rained in Mo City, but mainly because Li Che kept stirring up Mo City.

Constantly pulling strong figures into Mo City to battle, causing damage to Mo City.

The ink-colored rain enveloped heaven and earth, making the whole city seem to lose color at that moment, shrouded in rain mist, leaving only the black and white symbolic of death.

The only living person in Mo City was Li Che; besides that, all left in Mo City were dead souls.

The bodies of Yun E and Zhou Peng fell onto the ground of Mo City.

As reincarnated Temple Gods, could they successfully capture souls?

Li Che really couldn’t be sure, but it’s worth a try. Although the two were reincarnated Temple Gods, they literally grew up under Li Che’s watch.

Back when they arrived at Golden Light Prefecture City, growing up with Xi Xi, Li Che had affection for them too.

His five fingers spread open, and immediately there were countless winds intertwining between heaven and earth.

"Soul Return——"

Soul Capturing!

The low voice sounded like the tribal elder chanting at an ancient ritual, linking the portal between the Netherworld and the present world, allowing dead souls to pass through a passage of death and rebirth to achieve revival.

Shhhhh...

After Soul Capturing was performed, unexpectedly, this time, Soul Capturing was somewhat different from before.
