1134: Chapter 1127: Apostle of God 1134: Chapter 1127: Apostle of God Upon hearing Xia Yue’s explanation, Luo’er looked at Feng with concern and said, frowning, “Why are you so foolish?
Didn’t I tell you to recuperate and wait for us to co back?”
“I, I wanted to return to the Advance Team quickly, so…” Feng lowered her head and muttered with grievance.
“Ah, it’s truly a case of unrequited love,” sighed Xia Yue, shaking his head.
“Don’t talk nonsense, what unrequited love and all,” said Luo’er, frowning and slightly embarrassed.
“Oh, I’m not talking nonsense; I’m just reflecting on it,” Xia Yue said with a smile.
“In any case, your illness is cured now, so you should hurry up and get so rest,” Luo’er said with a sigh.
“I want to go with you…” Feng murmured, clutching Luo’er’s sleeve and looking down.
“This…” Luo’er showed a troubled expression.
“Let her co along, won’t you?
You sent her back last ti, and now you still want to send her away?” Unexpectedly, Tangmo stepped forward and affectionately hugged Feng.
“Well, okay then…” Luo’er scratched his head awkwardly, looking at her.
Actually, Tangmo did not feel hostile toward all won who approached Luo’er.
In her view, won who approached Luo’er could be classified into three threat levels.
The first level consisted of extrely threatening won, with Princess lia being a pri example.
To Tangmo, this woman was the greatest threat.
Luo’er hadn’t said it outright, but Tangmo knew that lia was one of the few won who could access his innermost feelings.
The second level included generally threatening won who tried to get close to Luo’er, but he would always act with restraint and not offend them lightly.
This category caused Tangmo the most jealousy, as Luo’er was neither repulsed by nor accepting toward these won, leaving Tangmo feeling insecure because of his noncommittal attitude.
The third level was made up of won who posed a low threat and was best described as girls rather than won.
This was because they tended to be younger, naïve, and Luo’er felt nothing special for these young girls, treating them only as a brother would a sister.
The typical representatives would be Kali or Yaning.
Feng fell sowhere between the third and the second level.
Though her age t the criteria for being a threat, Luo’er’s attitude towards her was clear; he treated her purely as a sister.
The reason why the second level always irked Tangmo was Luo’er’s ambiguous attitude toward girls of that level.
Once Luo’er made his stance clear, girls of this level would automatically drop to the third level.
It was obvious, though unspoken, that from his daily behavior, Tangmo could tell that Luo’er had no interest in Feng.
He simply saw her as a sister and a subordinate, without any other kind of affection.
More importantly, because Tangmo had been assigned by Luo’er to be Feng’s guardian, a hierarchical relationship was inherently ford.
Tangmo, in turn, began to see Feng as her own sister, and she had plenty of experience in dealing with sisters.
“You need to take good care of her and not let her act recklessly and get hurt again,” Luo’er said helplessly, shaking his head before advising.
“Got it!” Tangmo said, pulling the sowhat bewildered Feng into her embrace.
Indeed, if not as a rival, Tangmo genuinely liked Feng.
Feng was like a soft porcelain doll, whom she could mold to her whims without any resistance from her.
“Thank you, Xia Yue, for your help.
I’ll rember your kindness deep in my heart,” Luo’er said, bowing respectfully to Xia Yue.
“Don’t forget what you owe ,” Xia Yue said with a light smile.
“Of course, should Xia Yue need my help in the future, I will go through fire and water, at all costs,” Luo’er declared emphatically.
“Alright, no need for going through fire and water,” Xia Yue replied, shaking his head gently, “We should set off as soon as everyone is here.
I don’t want to waste ti in this place, and I’m sure you all feel the sa.”
“Yes, we’ll depart imdiately!” Luo’er nodded vigorously and then turned to find Li Si to prepare for departure.
After the bustle, the airboat was fully restocked and took on the necessary talents before slowly ascending and then continuing northward.
En route, Luo’er briefly introduced Xia Yue’s identity.
Although the others had heard rumors, hearing the truth about Xia Yue’s real identity still shocked Zhuyan Yu and Nightingale, with Aunt Axia going so far as to prostrate herself before her, kowtowing several tis on the ground.
“Do we need to do the sa?” Zhuyan Yu asked with wide eyes, looking at Aunt Axia’s actions, her face a picture of shock.
“Oh, no need.
Aunt Axia is a devoted follower of Lord Xia Yue, so this is rely the ritual of a believer toward their deity,” Luo’er explained.
“It seems I encounter believers wherever I go,” Xia Yue said, sitting calmly in a chair, accepting Aunt Axia’s worship while she continued to examine her own fingers.
“Aunt Axia!” Suddenly, she appeared to rember sothing and turned her gaze toward Aunt Axia, calling out.
“Here, I’m here!” At the sound of Xia Yue calling her na, Aunt Axia responded, her voice trembling with excitent.
“Good, I’m in need of a servant.
Starting today, you will act as my servant, sticking close by my side at all tis.
How does that sound?” Xia Yue inquired indifferently.
“It is my utmost honor!” Aunt Axia replied, nearly laughing out loud with joy.
“Is that alright?” Xia Yue turned to Luo’er to ask.
“Well, Aunt Axia just…” Luo’er started, looking sowhat troubled.
“Don’t worry, I only need an assistant, and I won’t stray far from the Otherworld Gate.
After all, I still have to oversee the Elf Planet Project, don’t I?” Xia Yue reassured.
“If Lord Xia Yue does not take Aunt Axia away, then naturally, we have no objections,” Luo’er said after so consideration, deciding to acquiesce to her request.
“If you are a deity, can you tell us the essence of magic?” Zhuyan Yu asked excitedly.
“I cannot,” Xia Yue declined her request flatly.
“Why not?” Zhuyan Yu asked, puzzled.
“I am tasked with maintaining the order of this world.
The Ancestors’ mission for did not include advancing this world’s magical technology.
If magic technology develops too rapidly and humanitarianism cannot keep up, it will lead this world’s people down the path of the Ancestors, back to that era, the Twilight of the Gods,” Xia Yue explained, shaking her head.
“Then, is the theory of magic particle entanglent valid?” Zhuyan Yu pressed eagerly.
“Hmm-hmm-hmm.” Faced with Zhuyan Yu’s question, Xia Yue did not respond but rely revealed a faint smile.
“Answer !” Zhuyan Yu asked, a touch of impatience in her voice.
“Teacher Zhu, stay calm, stay calm,” Luo’er quickly stepped forward as he noticed Zhuyan Yu getting a bit out of control.
“The theories you have explored are your accomplishnts.
If I were to tell you these theories, they would beco my accomplishnts.
I am not one to give away my achievents so easily.
The Ancients said, ‘hearing the Way in the morning, one can die content in the evening.’ I can tell you my findings, but as a price, after learning them, you would have to pay with your life.
How about that?” Xia Yue asked with a smile.
“Please don’t do that, Lord Xia Yue,” Luo’er implored, sweating cold sweat despite knowing Xia Yue would not kill lightly, her threat still frightened him.
Clearly, Zhuyan Yu was also intimidated by Xia Yue’s threat; she struggled to make up her mind for a long while.
After all, dying after unraveling the mystery, which couldn’t be passed on to future generations, would be aningless.
“Compared to the finite, life is near infinite,” Xia Yue continued, “To exhaust the limited for the limitless is perilous.
Therefore, compared to nearly infinite knowledge, precious life is more important.
A person with vast knowledge but no contributions is truly aningless in death.
Therefore, I advise you to keep your life and continue exploring on your own.
Your own achievents are truly yours, but others’ achievents can always be taken away.”
“But when will I be able to verify the truth of these theories?” Zhuyan Yu asked with a bitter smile.
