Chapter 1043: Conforming to Destiny

Chapter 1043: Conforming to Destiny

“Su Kexin, she knows?”

Lin Nuo heard the staggering name again, Su Kexin.

In his dream, Su Kexin and Mu Yiting ended up fighting, and just as the last blinding flash of light shone out, he woke up from the dream.

Wow, it seems like this dream was a collaborative adventure, and now Su Kexin’s involved too?

At this rate, they could gather a full table for mahjong.

“Strictly speaking, it’s not that she knows, but rather the people she came with know. According to that minister, he hails from the Sacred Realm. And the Sacred Realm and the Demon Realm are like oil and water, so he noticed me and made a move. However, that minister helped me escape, but later, to delay their departure, I was attacked by two other unknown individuals.”

“Su Kexin is with people from the Sacred Realm? Wow, these two broken places are on Earth searching for talent now?”

Lin Nuo couldn’t help but complain, feeling troubled that this didn’t happen in his last life. I mean, he was transformed into the Supreme Demon Lord through the Demon Star! Those folks from the Demon Realm should have thrown him an olive branch.

Nope, that plot doesn’t exist.

But it doesn’t mean Mu Yiting and Su Kexin didn’t experience this talent competition last life, making him feel like he had become an outsider.

Is there still a way to return to the illusion and ask Da Su if they participated in such a grand event? After all, as the big villain, how could he not be involved in such an event?

“What kind of person is Su Kexin, and what is her connection to the Sacred Realm?” Mu Yiting asked, puzzled.

“Honestly, if you ask her directly, she might not even know. But you should remember your dream fight with Su Kexin, right? Oh no, back then you looked pretty clueless, probably just like her.”

“I remember! She acted all weird, and I was weird too, and we ended up fighting with no result.”

“You remember? That makes you slightly better than her. But I don’t know if that dream gave you a special boost; you’ve never shown that kind of ability in reality,” Lin Nuo said.

“So, you knew about her powers all along? What are her abilities?” Mu Yiting continued asking.

“An ability that erupts when she’s on the brink of destruction. Her power boosts rapidly, but she also loses her sanity. As you saw, this little girl could even take down your dad. Thank goodness your dad didn’t actually catch her. She’s basically a bomb; the more you try to kill her, the more you’ll end up dead.”

“She has such an ability? Does that mean I also have this kind of ability? Just not discovered yet?”

Mu Yiting was a bit hopeful about her own capabilities.

“You don’t. I’ve seen you nearly die; what could you even burst forth? Go get some sleep. But you might have other abilities. But I suggest not digging too deep; if you uncover it, you might have to go back to the Demon Realm.”

Lin Nuo said, turning his gaze towards the hole where the white rabbit had jumped in.

“I just encountered a few rabbits; they died but resurrected. Now I have no idea where they went. I feel like a lot of creatures have mutated, which is definitely related to these two broken places.”

Lin Nuo shook his head; he still needed to find new food, but he couldn’t leave Mu Yiting behind. Who knew what kind of monster she’d turn into if he turned his back?

The identity of the princess of the Demon Kingdom is explosive enough.

Lin Nuo recalled the letter found in the Cangshan Forest, which had the names Su Kexin and Luo Xiaoxue written on it, though the writing was smudged, obscuring the rest. This made him suspect there might be some connection to the Sacred Realm.

After all, these two girls had abilities that were straight out of a protagonist’s playbook; each one could take down thousands of enemies, their brilliance could blind even the toughest titanium-dog eyes.

“By the way, how did you get here? Are you alone?” Mu Yiting asked.

“Temporarily, yes. But that won’t be for long.”

“Temporarily? Who else are you looking for?”

“My maid is on the mountain, that’s it. Is there a problem?”

“Maid? Is that the little girl named Ruo’er? Has she also turned into a demon with you?”

“She has, but not completely, she’s still a fairy. But turning into a demon is just a matter of time; the demon forces will eventually grow stronger. That’s the trend of history.”

Lin Nuo said seriously, delivering a speech worthy of a Demon Ruler, conforming to destiny.

Of course, there’s another historical trend: the demon forces being annihilated by Su Kexin.

But people can have double standards; the demon path growing stronger conforms to destiny, while Su Kexin annihilating the demon path is also destiny, but it can’t conform – it has to go against destiny!

“You’re impressive, being able to turn an ordinary person into a fairy and then back into a demon. You’re really playing both sides of the immortals and demons. I feel that the emergence of the Demon Realm and the Sacred Realm is no threat to you. But I’ve been wondering about what you’re pursuing. Do you want to lead the demon path to dominate the world?”

“Yes,” Lin Nuo nodded.

“What’s your motivation?”

“Do we need motivation? Don’t you want to lead Helong Hall to dominate the world?” Lin Nuo countered.

“It’s different. I grew up in Helong Hall, so naturally, I prioritize its interests. But you didn’t grow up in a demon environment; you’ve received endless praise in the Xuanyun Sect. How could you think this way?”

Mu Yiting was puzzled. She just wanted to understand; it didn’t mean she was trying to steer Lin Nuo away.

“When I wanted to become a hero, I couldn’t achieve it. Since that’s the case, I’ll become someone above the hero. I’m sure the old you looked down on me, like many others, but that’s fine. The key is some people want me dead. I just want to create a world that belongs to me, and you don’t have to understand.”

“Alright, I really don’t quite understand your words. But no matter how you think, I’m still willing to support you. If Helong Hall stands firm, I’ll also rely on you and step into the demon path.”

“You can rely on me now.”

“That won’t do. I’m always relying on your grant. Without enough strength, even if I rely on you, you won’t take me seriously. I hope Helong Hall gains enough strength to gain your respect; unfortunately, we’re still working on it.”

After listening to Mu Yiting’s words, Lin Nuo looked at her, not commenting further.

How she thinks is up to her; after all, he didn’t prioritize her because of Helong Hall’s strength, but because it was easy to be with her and he could enjoy the top-quality Kehan water while valuing her.

She can be stubborn; being a little stubborn is understandable.

“By the way, since you’re here, make me some Kehan water. It’s been a while since I last drank it.”

“You’ve already learned how to make it? You taught me that in the dream.”

“But what I made lacks soul. Yours has soul; maybe I’m missing something.”

What is missing, Lin Nuo knew, was Mu Yiting’s saliva.

He wasn’t sure if it was due to her body or soul, but that saliva was the essential spirit of Kehan water.

Suddenly, Lin Nuo felt a disturbance and frowned.

“Someone’s coming.”
