Urban Divine Doctor Descends the Mountain

Chapter 2689: Chapter 2688: Break the Mirror!

After the birth of his children, Lin Dong’s life seemed to be tightly wrapped in the honey of happiness.

The crystallization of his love with Bai Jue was like the warmest sunshine in winter, illuminating their world.

Lin Dong indulged in this sweetness day after day, almost forgetting the clamor and strife of the outer world, as well as his initial mission and pursuit.

However, just as he was about to completely succumb to this fake tranquility, the mysterious door within the Dragon Ring Space suddenly radiated a dazzling white light.

At the moment Lin Dong was experiencing an awakening within the Dragon Ring Space, the Sovereign Witch’s eyes suddenly opened, and two beams of light as sharp as swords shot directly toward the direction of that door.

A nameless restlessness surged in her heart.

"It’s the door... left by Lin Dong’s father..." the Sovereign Witch murmured, her voice tinged with a hint of doubt.

She clearly sensed that the door within the Dragon Ring Space emitted an ancient and powerful force that even caused her heart to tremble.

The Sovereign Witch quickly stood up, her form transformed into a stream of light, and in an instant, she arrived before that door.

She gazed at the door, only to see the originally obscure and difficult-to-decipher runes flickering with a strange light, as if communicating with some unknown existence.

"This... this is..." the Sovereign Witch’s voice trembled slightly, as she sensed from within a terrifyingly extreme power.

It reminded her of terrifying things from the Ancient Times.

The Sovereign Witch took a deep breath, trying to calm the waves in her heart.

She began to mobilize the witch power within her, attempting to establish a connection with that door, hoping to glimpse a hint of the future from it.

However, when she tried to approach that door, an invisible force stopped her outside, a force that surpassed the limits of her understanding, as if the entire universe was preventing her from peeking into its secrets.

"Since I’m not allowed to peek directly, then let it be." the Sovereign Witch murmured, "I hope the changes in this door can bring Lin Dong a turning point."

At this moment, those beams of light penetrated the thick fog of the Illusionary Realm like the first light of dawn and quietly merged into Lin Dong’s body.

They flowed through his veins, awakening Lin Dong’s deep-seated memories and perceptions of reality.

Initially, Lin Dong only felt a nameless restlessness, as if something was gently touching his soul.

As the light went deeper, those memories buried by the illusion gradually began to return; he remembered his identity, everything in reality, and why he came to this illusory world.

"I’m here to seek the truth, to face challenges, not to escape reality." Lin Dong silently chanted in his heart, his gaze gradually becoming firm as the confusion that the illusion bewildered him with began to dissipate.

He realized that all these illusions might be a test, a honing of his will and resolve.

As Lin Dong’s perception of reality resurrected, he began to notice the various anomalies within the illusion.

Those things that once seemed beautiful now appeared illusory and fragile in his eyes.

He understood that true happiness and growth should not be founded on escaping reality, but rather on maintaining inner beliefs and hopes when facing challenges and difficulties.

Lin Dong took a deep breath, letting his mind closely connect with the light in the Dragon Ring Space.

He felt an unprecedented strength, a courage and wisdom from the heart, a longing and pursuit for the real world.

He closed his eyes, letting his mind have a profound dialogue with the illusion, as if bidding it farewell, and proving his growth.

When Lin Dong opened his eyes again, his gaze was entirely different.

He looked at Bai Jue and the children, his heart filled with love, but this love was no longer a dependency on the illusion, but a cherishing and promise of real life.

He understood that he had to leave this illusion, return to the real world, to face the challenges and opportunities awaiting him.

Lin Dong tightly held Bai Jue’s hand, although his heart was filled with reluctance, he knew it was for a better future.

He gently said, "Sister Bai Jue, I have to leave this place and return to my world. But please believe, no matter where I am, my heart will always be with you."

A hint of surprise flashed in Bai Jue’s eyes, and slowly, her figure began to become faint.

Afterward, her figure disappeared.

Lin Dong, at the moment, walked toward that familiar yet unfamiliar courtyard.

The air was filled with a faint floral fragrance, that was his mother’s Chen Fei’s favorite violet.

He took a deep breath, as if inhaling that familiar and warm scent in the air, the scent of home.

"It’s time to say a proper goodbye."

Lin Dong returned to the house, his mother Chen Fei was busy in the kitchen.

"Mom, could you make the crispy sugar cakes for me once more?" Lin Dong called softly, as if afraid of breaking this beautiful serenity. He

His voice carried a barely noticeable tremor, a reluctance for the impending departure and a yearning for the past warmth.

The figure of Chen Fei slowly emerged from the kitchen, her face wearing a gentle, steadfast smile as always, her eyes seemed to penetrate everything in Lin Dong’s heart.

"Of course, Dong’er, mom will make it for you right away." Her words were like a gentle spring breeze, tender yet firm.

Shortly, the unique aroma of crispy sugar cakes wafted from the kitchen, the most profound taste in Lin Dong’s childhood memories.

He sat at the dining table, watching his mother place a plate of golden, crispy sugar cakes in front of him, his heart a mix of emotions.

Every bite of the cake was like savoring past times, those carefree, love-filled days.

"Mom, I have to go." Lin Dong finally said the words, his voice low and steady. These words, like a sharp knife cutting the ties between him and this illusionary world.

Chen Fei’s actions paused slightly, a barely perceptible sadness flashing in her eyes, but it was quickly replaced by tenderness.

"Are you leaving? Where to? Aren’t you happy at home? Aren’t you satisfied?" Her tone was full of concern, as if Lin Dong were just a child about to embark on a journey.

Lin Dong smiled wryly, his eyes shimmering with tears, but it wasn’t sadness, it was gratitude for this experience.

"Very happy, this period must have been the happiest and most beautiful of times for me. But I know this isn’t reality. I must go, to another world."

As Lin Dong’s words fell, the figure of Chen Fei in front of him began to blur, her smile still warm, but its tangible presence was slowly fading.

"I see." She said softly, as if speaking to Lin Dong, or perhaps to herself.

Soon after, Chen Fei’s figure disappeared completely, leaving only a faint scent lingering in the air.

At the same time, the Illusionary World in front of Lin Dong began to collapse, the beautiful scenes vanishing like a shattered mirror into the void piece by piece.

However, there was no trace of fear or regret in Lin Dong’s heart.

He understood that this was all a test for him, and he had successfully passed the Third Stage.

When the last fragment of illusion disappeared, Lin Dong found himself standing on unfamiliar land, the real world, the place he truly belonged.

"Though it was fake, thank you for giving me a beautiful dream." Lin Dong murmured.
