Capítulo 1512: Chapter 106: A Dream
Lu Hong defeated Amaterasu, the strongest Heavenly God of Japan, and this action made the world take notice. The gods who originally wanted to invade the lands imdiately abandoned the idea, as there was an existence comparable to any Divine being despite no godly spirit awakening on the holand.
Thus, under Lu Hong’s intimidation, the countries surrounding the holand quickly cald down.
As ti passed, the gods’ hunger was no longer limited to their small domains, leading to mutual conquest.
This conquest, the onset of divine wars, was undoubtedly a massive destruction for Blue Star, as all sorts of bizarre creatures and mythological tales appeared before humanity, slaughtering each other, with blood and violence rampant across Blue Star.
And amidst this chaos and violence, there remained one and only pure land.
That was Hua Country.
Yes, Lu Hong stood tall on the holand, defeating countless Divine beings who sought to intrude upon the holand over the next ten years.
To maintain Lu Hong’s ultimate combat power, the holand’s upper echelon poured all resources towards Lu Hong.
With the country as a backing, Lu Hong’s level increased at an alarming pace, reaching the threshold of Peak Third Transformation in ten years. Although the gods who awakened in the mortal world grew as well, their growth was evidently slower than Lu Hong’s.
The gods invading the holand, except for Amaterasu who initially escaped by luck, were all slain one by one by Lu Hong. This extre slaughter and violence frightened other spies around, not daring to cross the line.
On this day, the holand in Hua Country was still imrsed in a sea of peace and joy.
Lu Hong humd a song at ho, savoring soup.
He occasionally twisted his waist and swung his hips, living a carefree life.
Before long, the doorbell rang.
Lu Hong hurriedly put down the spoon, ran to open the door.
“You’ve arrived? Co in and sit down.”
As Lu Hong spoke, Lu Lingyue was slowly led into the house by a very handso man, taking difficult steps.
Lu Hong looked at Lu Lingyue’s eight-month pregnant belly and couldn’t help but smile slightly.
Yes, Lu Lingyue was married.
Lu Hong’s power had made almost all upper echelons on the holand want to curry favor and ingratiate, and naturally, his only sister Lu Lingyue was under close watch.
It can be said without exaggeration, Lu Hong beca a stronger existence above all gods in this world seven or eight years ago, and now there is no greater support on Blue Star than Lu Hong.
Who wouldn’t want to hold onto such support?
Therefore, Lu Lingyue beca a treasure in the eyes of wealthy and powerful people in Hua Country; anyone who could claim Lu Lingyue would almost certainly be labeled with Lu God’s favor, and could walk anywhere on the holand unchecked.
Though Lu Hong knew that nearly ninety-nine percent of n approaching Lu Lingyue had ulterior motives, he couldn’t let his sister stay single forever, could he?
Marriage must happen, and children must be born.
So, regarding Lu Lingyue’s love, Lu Hong didn’t interfere, letting her make her own choices.
Ultimately, Lu Lingyue chose her true love, a man nad Ming Nan.
Lu Hong investigated his background, finding that he was the heir of a major family in Nanfeng, destined to inherit the family business, which was decent but not over ten billion in assets.
Though tens of billions may seem a lot to others, to Lu Hong, trillions were alike, as absolute power rendered wealth re waste paper.
Three years ago, Lu Lingyue brought Ming Nan to visit, and Lu Hong accepted him as his brother-in-law.
Less than half a year later, Nanfeng’s Ming Family soared as the foremost family of interest, praised and supported by countless families and powers.

Lu Hong had anticipated this situation early on and did not intervene; however, he arranged for Black Dragon’s people to secretly monitor the Ming Family, ready to eliminate any unlawful or criminal actions without regard for their face or any concerns.
Initially, when the Ming Family was praised, the family mbers did beco arrogant, the young ones acting lawlessly, trampling on the law.
But after their wrongful deeds on the first day, they found the corpse placed at the Ming’s door the next morning, with a note detailing the sins pinned to the chest.
The Ming Family was furious, mobilizing masters to investigate who dared kill their people.
When they found out the Ming Family was investigating, Black Dragon’s people made their presence known explicitly, without intentions of hiding.
The Ming Family imdiately pressured Black Dragon rcenary Corps for an explanation.
At this point, Lu Hong called the head of his in-laws, uttering four words: “Do you want extinction?”
These short four words nearly scared the Ming Family Head into a heart attack, and they imdiately ceased all thoughts of acting rashly.
After this incident, Lu Hong’s attitude towards the Ming Family beca evident to all: he allowed the family to grow powerful because of him, but would never let them surpass the law and the country, firmly standing by his principles.
Ming Nan looked at his brother-in-law with an inherent fear, speaking with so trembling: “Lu… Brother Lu.”
Lu Hong looked at Ming Nan, nodding: “Sit with Ling Yue first; I’ll cook two more dishes, and we’ll start eating soon. Since you ca, you two should stay here, and after the child is born, return.”
“Okay.”
Ming Nan nodded in agreent.
Soon, the family sat at the table, eating and chatting about recent joys and topics.
Over ti, Blue Star beca a vast breeding ground, where gods slaughtered, vying for supremacy, unifying all territories but not dare touch the holand of Hua Country.
Because Lu Hong once visited, pinning his rivals down with just a finger, shattering their hopes entirely.
As ti moved again, due to Lu Hong’s request that Lu Lingyue and Ming Nan never began cultivation to beco masters, their bodies naturally aged.
As the sunset cast light, illuminating the languid Lu Lingyue, now at ninety-five, with a frail face, like decaying wood, lying on a rocking chair, quietly gazing at the serene landscape ahead.
Beside Lu Lingyue lay a seemingly youthful man—Lu Hong.
After a while, Lu Lingyue spoke: “Brother, why didn’t you let and brother Nan cultivate?”
Upon hearing this, Lu Hong sighed lightly: “Immortality sotis isn’t a blessing but a curse.”
“So, were you just using your own beliefs and thoughts to dictate my and brother Nan’s lives?”
Indeed, years ago, Lu Lingyue and Ming Nan wanted to cultivate, but their path was ruthlessly severed by Lu Hong. In the holand of Hua Country, no one dared defy Lu Hong’s orders, allowing them to cultivate.
Lacking thod and resources, the couple had no chance of becoming masters.
Thus, Ming Nan died, passing at eighty, succumbing to frustration and depression.
Since turning fifty, Lu Lingyue refused to see Lu Hong, feeling her brother didn’t want her to live longer and watched her age and die.
For the seven to eight years following Ming Nan’s death, Lu Lingyue bore imnse resentnt against Lu Hong.
She genuinely didn’t understand why her brother wouldn’t let her live longer.
Though recalling these things still upset her, perhaps nearing life’s end, Lu Lingyue no longer argued with Lu Hong, her gaze remaining calm upon the beautiful view before her, lost in thought.
In response, Lu Hong sighed deeply: “Ling Yue, this is my little bit of impulsivity; if I let you step onto the path of cultivation, I really couldn’t bear killing you, though you’re not real.”
Hearing Lu Hong’s murmured words, Lu Lingyue slightly froze, incredulously turning to Lu Hong: “Brother? What are you talking about?”
Lu Hong’s gaze was steady as he turned, eting Lu Lingyue’s eyes, speaking slowly: “If I allowed you to step into the masters’ threshold, then your brother wouldn’t ever awaken again. Ling Yue, though I truly miss you, fake is always fake; I couldn’t harm you. But if you don’t die, how could I escape this Dream Realm? I hope you can forgive …”
