Chapter 190 The Land of Truth

On this day, Chen Xuan transformed into a large tree, brimming with vitality, and sprouted numerous branches and leaves.

A towering tree, its branches pointing towards the sky, stands upright in the middle of the lake, visible from the opposite shore.

When the last straw broke the camel's back, Xiao Wu was filled with despair and completely believed that Chen Xuan's death was truly beyond saving.

Zhu Zhuqing blamed herself, it was all her fault. Chen Xuan was already dead, yet she had tormented him to this state, he couldn't even rest in peace after death.

Xiao Wu remained silent and stared blankly for a long time. In the end, she could only accept reality and erected a cenotaph for Chen Xuan, which was then placed in a grassland.

On the grassland, flowers and grasses swayed, and a small mound stood up, with a stone tablet inscribed with the words "Tomb of Chen Xuan".

Thus ended Chen Xuan's short and lonely life. He died and was buried deep in the Starry Sky Forest, a vast and refreshing grassland.

"Alas, what a fine human being, to die like this." The Azure Bull Python sighed softly, looking at the small mounds on the grassland, its heart filled with endless emotions.

Even though they had never met before and didn't know Chen Xuan, Da Ming still had great respect for this human. For Xiao Wu alone, he had gone against the entire Spirit Hall and safely escorted Xiao Wu back.

However, he died. He should have had an infinite future, but it ended in this way. How tragic and lamentable!

Roar!

The Titan Ape thumped its chest and belly, raised its head and let out a beastly roar that shook the clouds. It wanted to send Chen Xuan off in this way.

That night, Xiao Wu's treehouse was filled with sorrowful weeping, which gradually subsided late into the night. No one knew how many times she had cried.

The next day, she came out with bloodshot eyes and a deep tear stain on her beautiful face.

Zhu Zhuqing came outside, her eyes were also red, with many blood vessels in her beautiful eyes. Obviously, she had also cried last night for Chen Xuan.

In the following days, the depths of the Star Dou Great Forest became incredibly oppressive, the atmosphere gloomy, and no one spoke.

For several days, Xiao Wu spent her days in tears, heartbroken, and often cried secretly at night.

Zhu Zhuqing's eyes grew redder day by day, and she shed tears every day, feeling heartbroken. But she pretended to be fine and never showed her emotions in front of others.

It wasn't until another week later that the two of them emerged from their sadness, gradually recovered, and returned to normal life.

However, whenever they think of that man, they become lost in thought for a long time, their eyes filled with sorrow, and they still cannot completely move on.

Time flies by, and more than a month has passed in the blink of an eye. As the leaves fall, it is a sign of autumn. One by one, the yellowing leaves wither and return to the earth.

Autumn has arrived, and the weather is gradually getting colder.

Zhu Zhuqing did not leave but lived in the Star Dou Great Forest. She would come to the small island in the lake almost every day.

Today, she and Xiao Wu came here and looked at the towering tree, hundreds of meters tall, with its lush branches and leaves, still full of vitality, unaffected by the changing seasons.

Time flies, and two months have passed quietly. At the end of autumn, a child's cry broke the tranquility of the Starry Sky Forest.

The Azure Bull Python and the Titan Ape stood guard outside the treehouse, not daring to relax for a moment.

On this day, Xiao Wu gave birth to a child, a beautiful baby girl with fair skin like snow and a steady breath; she was a healthy child.

The baby girl blinked her bright and clear eyes and waved her little hands as if trying to grab something.

With tears in her eyes, Xiao Wu felt all the gloom in her heart dissipate. Looking at the baby in her arms, she finally smiled.

Zhu Zhuqing was happy for her. Although the man had left, he had left behind his bloodline. She vowed to protect the child well.

"Sister Xiaowu, let's give this baby a name." Seeing Xiaowu finally smile, Daming and Erming breathed a sigh of relief, having thought she would be forever mired in sadness.

Xiao Wu looked up at the maple forest in the distance, where yellowing leaves fell one by one, covering the ground with fallen leaves.

"Let's call her... Chen Qiu'er!" she murmured, speaking from the heart.

Zhu Zhuqing held up two fingers, teasing the baby, and said with a smile, "Baby, from now on your name will be Chen Qiu'er. Remember this name."

Xiao Wu's beautiful eyes dimmed slightly. She didn't know what name to give the child. If he were still here, he could definitely give the child a good name.

"Surname Chen..." The Azure Bull Python sighed slightly. It seemed that Sister Xiaowu still hadn't gotten over the death of that human.

Time flies, seasons change, and more than a year has passed since Chen Xuan's death.

Winter has arrived, and heavy snow is falling from the sky. The sky is covered in a thick layer of white snow, and the entire forest is white, as if it has been covered with a snow blanket.

"Sister Xiaowu, let's go back to human society," the Azure Bull Python sighed. Over the past year, Xiaowu and Zhu Zhuqing would always go to that small island in the lake to visit that towering tree.

Da Ming said helplessly, "The child has grown up and should return to human society."

A year has passed, and Xiaowu has emerged from her grief, but whenever she thinks of Chen Xuan, she feels sad and her heart aches.

"I'm not leaving. I don't want to go anywhere. He'll be lonely if I'm not here..."

"Sigh..." The Azure Bull Python sighed heavily, said no more, and sank to the bottom of the water.

Time flies, and the second year has quietly arrived.

On this day, Zhu Zhuqing broke through to level sixty-one and became a Soul Emperor. At the age of sixteen or seventeen, she was the youngest Soul Emperor on the entire continent.

Over the past year, she has not slacked off in her cultivation; on the contrary, she has worked even harder than before. In the first year, she fused with the Soul Master Competition to obtain a Soul Bone, and her Soul Power instantly increased by six levels, directly becoming a level 53 Soul King.

Xiao Chenxuan left behind two storage soul tools containing many pills and weapons, as well as several soul bones, and a treasure pouch containing all sorts of immortal herbs.

Since Xiao Wu had no use for these things, she gave all the treasures left by Chen Xuan to Zhu Zhuqing to help her cultivate.

With the aid of elixirs and immortal herbs, she made rapid progress over the past year and finally ascended to the Soul Emperor title today, becoming the youngest Soul Emperor on the continent.

"Xiao Wu, I'm leaving." Two days later, Zhu Zhuqing found Xiao Wu to say goodbye, preparing to leave the place where she had lived for two years.

Two years have passed. Chen Qiu'er has grown from an infant to a meter tall and has learned to walk. She spends all day around Xiao Wu, lively, cute, and very attractive.

"Zhuqing, be careful on the road. You're my only good sister left." Xiaowu said with a hint of sadness.

"Mm." Zhu Zhuqing nodded, rubbed the little girl's head, and turned to leave. She was going to a very dangerous place called the Killing City, so she didn't tell Xiao Wu.

"Goodbye, Aunt Zhuqing." Chen Qiu'er waved her little hand, her voice still very childish, as she said goodbye.

Zhu Zhuqing left, and the place became somewhat deserted. No one talked to her; only Xiao Wu and her daughter remained.

……

……

Beyond Douluo Star, on the other side of an endless, distant sea of ​​stars, lies a pitch-black land, devoid of stars and without end.

A giant vine stands tall, blocking out the sky and the sun, rooted in the sea of ​​stars. Each leaf is enormous, bearing densely packed images and texts, becoming streams of light. Planets and meteorites appear insignificant in the face of this leaf.

"Where am I?" When Chen Xuan opened his eyes again, he found himself in a pitch-black place, like a vast universe with no end in sight.

Before him stood a colossal vine, its branches blotting out the sky and radiating power—a truly enormous behemoth. A single leaf was equivalent to a galaxy cluster.

Chen Xuan's pupils contracted in utter shock. What kind of place was this? How could there be such a massive vine here?

brush!

His eyes widened as he realized he was moving closer to the vine, as if some unseen force was pulling him in.

Chen Xuan tried to break free, but he was shocked again. All his cultivation had vanished, and all his soul power and chakra had disappeared!

He... became a mortal?

brush!

Chen Xuan opened his mouth, his body rapidly approaching the giant vine; he had no way to resist.

Moreover, he found that his consciousness was fading, his eyelids were closing uncontrollably, and he had fainted.
