Chapter 3101: Chapter 1594: Uncle and Pillar in the Tree House Cage, Tree Mother Personally Carves Blessings for the Divine Infant
“Swish—”
In the darkness where you couldn’t see your hand in front of your face, another shrill and desolate wail suddenly echoed, filled with imnse agony.
This must be the third one.
In an instant, the branches around crackled and snapped, evidently breaking in countless numbers.
“Szzz…”
Purple lightning then flickered, faintly illuminating the darkness, outlining an enclosed, cramped tree house cage.
...
Dead branches, dead branches, still dead branches!
Twisting and coiling black dead branches wrapped tightly around, leaving just enough room to shift one’s bottom.
“Thump-thump! Thump-thump!”
The purple lightning quickly vanished.
In the darkness, the sound of a heart beating more rapidly began to thud.
Suddenly, as if resisting fear, a trembling voice burst forth, reaching a broken pitch,
“Princes and generals, have you no lineage?!”
Boom!
Purple lightning exploded anew.
The surging life force within the dark branches around was scorched by the electricity, turning them back into dead branches.
Cao Erzhu in the tree house cage suddenly raised his head, his eyes brimming with tears, his lips quivering, as if his gaze could penetrate beyond the walls and roar against the fear within:
“Princes and generals, have you no lineage?”
“Princes and generals, have you no lineage?”
“Princes and generals, have you…”
Swish, swish, swish.
The black dead branches seed frightened by his crazed strength, retreating sowhat, freeing up a little space.
Cao Erzhu was originally sitting cross-legged. Upon seeing this, he wanted to push his luck further, shouting “Princes and generals,” as he was about to stand up and break through the tree house.
Swish, swish, swish!
The branches advanced again, frightening him into quickly retracting back into a ditative position, his voice gaining another octave:
“Have you no lineage?!”
“Do you have any lineage?!”
“I’m advising you not to co in, otherwise, have you any lineage?!”
The tips of the black branches pointed towards him, seeming to hesitate whether to attack or not.
Suddenly, in Cao Erzhu’s throat, as he was still making noise, another voice appeared, low and serious:
“Scram.”
Swish!
In a flash, all the branches lost their vitality, dropping to the floor, not daring to move.
“Lineage, lineage… Huff-huff!”
Cao Erzhu was gasping for breath, yelling until his throat was smoking, relieved to see the branches from the Ancestral Trees were not coming over to whip him again.
The tree house cage was his prison, but also a protector—at least when you can’t see the outside, the fear lessens.
Cao Erzhu had been in the Thirty-Three Heavens for a long ti!
So long that he had completely forgotten how many days had passed in the outside world.
Initially, believing the adage “Feather Ascension Three Realms, you’ll see the real na,” he took it to heart, tried it, and ascended easily.
However, upon arriving here, he hadn’t seen any divine priest nad Ran Ming, nor received His inheritance.
Instead, Cao Erzhu saw a purple monster, a beautiful woman, and a big bald man.
They fought a fierce battle.
Afterward, he was locked up in this tree house.
Cao Erzhu had no idea what was going on in the outside world, in the Lower Realm during this ti; he only knew that every ti that monster called “evil god” scread outside, the tree house attacked him once.
The tree house belonged to the beautiful woman; she must be protecting the purple monster.
Of course, what could threaten the purple monster was not himself, but mainly…
“Uncle!”
Cao Erzhu’s inner voice began to wail: “Just how long do I have to maintain this ‘Golden Stone Battle Seal’ position?”
“Wait,” the uncle’s voice was reassuring.
“But how long specifically do we have to wait, uncle? I can’t get out, and Dad will be angry… Otherwise, let them kill ; Dad will co to save if I am in danger.”
“Don’t make noise.”
“But I must know why it screams, why the Tree Mother wants to attack us, and isn’t this the Thirty-Three Heavens? Why isn’t the God-Slayer protecting us? Where is He?”
“…”
Uncle fell silent.
Cao Erzhu decided to press for answers this ti: “Tell , Uncle, I’m not a child anymore, I want to know the truth, I can be of help.”
Uncle’s silence was deafening.
It was only after a long while that Cao Erzhu heard him reply:
“Your uncle, I honestly don’t know…”
Should adults not be able to figure it out instantly?
Uncle, think about it, like Brother Shou, who can co up with many ideas just by turning his thoughts!
Cao Erzhu opened his mouth but couldn’t say a word; surely, uncle and he couldn’t be of the sa kind, could they?
Thick-headed?
Cao Erzhu suddenly missed Big Brother Shou.
He hadn’t expected that the last ti they couldn’t speak in the First Heavens would be their final eting…
Indeed, farewells should be ceremonial. Books say that every parting in life should be treated solemnly, like the last ti, so there’s no regret if you never see each other again…
Does uncle have any regrets? He too had an accident, he must have people he wishes to say goodbye to; as experienced and weathered as he is, he might have children, and they must be sad to know that uncle is trapped in my body…
When we et again, and his children call Dad, should I respond, or respond…
“Don’t make noise.”
“Uncle, I haven’t made any noise?”
“Don’t think, you’re noisy.”
“Oh, sorry, uncle.”
Cao Erzhu’s fleeting thoughts were abruptly interrupted by the apology.
After zoning out for a while, he couldn’t bear the oppressive atmosphere of the tree house any longer and asked, “Uncle, what exactly is our relationship now?”
“…”
Uncle sure likes his silence…
This kind of bond, living within and able to hear my thoughts… it seems like the relationship the old immortal i ntioned, a ghost beast relationship…
