It doesn't matter what the lord is.

54. Whatever you ask for, you get.

Silence, silence spread in the high tower at the bottom of the sea.

Reed let go of the Lingwu Lord first, and as the force supporting her suddenly decreased, the Lingwu Lord instinctively wanted to put her feet on the ground.

To her slight surprise, she actually did it.

The Spiritual Warrior Lord took a look at her legs. The two shocking blood holes that were pierced by Clenus had now been temporarily repaired. The endless soul power penetrated into each of her broken bones, stitching them together again. Although the speed of the new flesh and blood was not fast, it was slowly filling her wounds.

She turned her gaze to Reed with a complicated look in her eyes, but Reed didn't notice.

He was staring coldly at the baby who was holding onto the sleeve of the Spiritual Martial Lord. The situation before him was also beyond his expectations. Clenus's soul should have been dead, and he had executed it in his body.

So what is inside the body of this baby girl?

The baby was a little afraid of Lid's sharp eyes, so he pulled up the sleeve of the Spiritual Martial Lord and hid behind her clumsily. But in fact, all the tentacles on his back were exposed. Occasionally, he would carefully look at Lid, and when his eyes met, he would quickly lower his head, but he would repeat the action after two or three seconds.

The Lingwu Lord pulled his sleeve, but the baby girl burst into tears.

"Mom doesn't want me anymore... I'm so hungry... Mom..."

Big tears fell in front of her, Lingwu Lord frowned and stopped fighting with her for his sleeve. The baby cried for a while and wanted to wipe his nose with Lingwu Lord's sleeve. Lingwu Lord pulled back her sleeve with force, and the baby hung on her sleeve and dangled in the air.

It’s hard to imagine that such a little girl could cry so loudly.

The sound echoed in the tower, piercing the eardrums. Lid couldn't stand it anymore, so he grabbed the baby's tentacles and lifted her up like a carrot, pointing her towards him and saying:

"Stop crying."

The baby girl cried even louder.

Lid sighed and said:

"If you don't cry, I'll give you something delicious to eat."

The baby girl closed her mouth immediately, but she had just cried so hard that she couldn't stop for a while. Even though she tried her best to cover her mouth, her shoulders were still shaking, and tears oozed out of her big watery eyes every time she blinked, but the little girl managed to hold back without making any sound.

Lid's eyes twitched, and he asked straight to the point:

"what are you planning to do?"

He just thought that there was still a part of Clenus' soul in his body, and he had a back-up plan. After all, he never hesitated to speculate the worst about the three tribes. But the baby didn't understand what he was talking about at all. When Lid asked him fiercely, he started crying again, grabbing his hands randomly, and asked the Lingwu Lord for help:

"Mom, mom...someone is being mean to me..."

She said vaguely:

"I'm hungry... I want to eat... We agreed... wuwu..."

The Lingwu Lord hesitated for a moment, ignored the baby's request for help, and asked Lid:

"...Where is Clenus' soul?"

Lid said casually:

"Dead. I made it into octopus balls and ate it."

Lingwu Lord stared at Lid for a while, knowing that he was not lying. She was shocked for a moment, but she looked calm. Many things are easy to guess once the result is known. Lingwu Lord didn't think that Lid came up with a way to kill Clenus in a hurry, so he must have planned this game a long time ago and deceived himself and Clenus.

She was a little confused for a moment, but after thinking for a while, she took the baby from Lid and said:

"Then there is only one possibility."

The baby escaped from Reed's clutches and hurriedly hugged the arm of Lord Lingwu. After his gaze wandered for a while, his innocent big eyes stared at Lord Lingwu's chest in a daze, and he swallowed his saliva seven times in just half a minute.

Lord Lingwu looked at the baby in his hand and said in a low voice:

"Immortality... This word does not mean immortality, but the ability to give birth to a new existence from destruction. The moment you kill its soul, a brand new soul is born into this body. Kleinas is not invincible, but it will never be completely destroyed."

There was a sense of frustration in Lingwu Lord's voice, because it meant that she could not take over this body.

Even if she wiped out the soul of the baby and let her own soul take over, soon Clenus' soul would be reborn. At that time, either her soul would be squeezed out, or the two souls would devour each other, neither of which was what she wanted to see.

She made the most detailed plan for this operation and paid most of the price she could, but the final result was so absurd that her reluctance ultimately turned into a brief sigh.

Reed felt a little sympathetic towards her, but he wouldn't do anything for her.

The original purpose of his trip was to prevent Lord Lingwu from obtaining the power of Clenus.

The goal has been achieved, the short journey has come to an end, and the cooperation between the two people is in name only. At this time, all the actions that Lid did to help the Lingwu Lord will plant huge hidden dangers in the future, and may make He Yue and Fang Shisan's hard work day and night go to waste.

To put it more seriously, it is aiding the enemy.

He and the Lingwu Lord are still the kings of the two territories, and this will not change. Helping her with simple treatment of her injuries can be considered a favor. On the one hand, it is a compensation for venting his desire just now. On the other hand, although he does not want the Lingwu Territory to become bigger, he also does not want the Lingwu Territory to collapse.

The baby girl stretched out her chubby arms and gently grasped the sleeves of the Lingwu Lord. Her big eyes, filled with tears, stared at the Lingwu Lord without blinking, and her baby voice was filled with a hint of tears:

"Mom...hungry..."

Lord Lingwu looked at her, took a deep breath, calmed himself, and gently touched the baby girl's head.

After confirming that the child in front of her was completely unrelated to the Clenus she knew, her attitude softened a bit. She had never lost her virginity in hundreds of years, and naturally had no children. Being called mother by this guy unexpectedly, the Lingwu Lord didn't show anything on her face, but deep down in her heart, a soft string was plucked.

Lid brought the topic to a lighter place and asked:

"Come to think of it, why does she treat you as her mother? Because you are the first thing she sees when she wakes up?"

Lingwu Lord thought for a moment and replied:

"Not sure. Maybe it was because he licked my blood before he woke up."

She cut a hole in her finger and held the bleeding finger in front of the baby. The baby's eyes suddenly shone brightly, and he grabbed the Lingwu Lord's arm and kissed her happily. The Lingwu Lord's eyes were looking into the distance, perhaps planning for the future; Lid didn't pay attention to the baby at first, he was thinking about how to deal with the blood soul flowers outside.

When Lid came to his senses, he suddenly found that the sixteen tentacles behind the baby were attached to the sixteen acupoints of the Lingwu Lord. The tentacles covered with mucus slid on her fair skin, and the suction cups kissed her jade flesh with a "pop" sound. A faint red light lit up, and the Lingwu Lord raised his hand as if he had sensed something, his eyes slowly widened, and he looked incredible.

The baby let go of Lord Lingwu's fingers, burped, and began waving his hands again, asking Lord Lingwu to hug him.

"Ma Ma... several places are broken."

She gestured and spoke incoherently, with an expression like a child who had scored 100 points on an exam and was waiting for praise from his parents. She said happily, with a sense of seeking credit:

"But I helped Mama fix it~"

Lid looked at the Lingwu Lord steadily. The baby was certainly not talking about physical injuries. The Lingwu Lord still had many wounds that had not healed yet.

However, the inexplicable sense of disharmony that originally existed in the Lingwu Lord disappeared.

That baby... repaired the soul of the Lingwu Lord, which had been wandering in the human world for hundreds of years and was on the verge of total collapse at any time, back to its bright and new state.

-------------------------

I was late for the update yesterday due to health reasons. I'm very sorry. The recent chapters are actually quite long. I tried my best to write to the point where everyone can enjoy it. I gave a lot of free words as a small compensation. If I have time, I will try my best to make up for the missed updates.

In addition, I believe that well-informed friends have noticed that "Lord" will have a relatively important event on March 3.26. At that time, we will make a wave of additional updates to match that event, so stay tuned~

55. This wave is to recognize the thief as the father

When he realized this problem, Reid felt mixed emotions.

Despite being extremely careful and vigilant, he still couldn't escape the fate of being assisted by the enemy.

Originally, he had planned very well. The soul of the Lingwu lord was seriously damaged, and he must be in a state of not much life, but he could still hold on for a while after returning, just in time to buy the last time for the rapid expansion of Yuxi City. The four big guys, Lingwu, the royal family, Xiqin, and Nanchu, were all gathered in the central and eastern parts of Yongtian Kingdom. While they were fighting, Yuxi City only needed to swallow a few territories in the west to develop like a snowball.

It would be best if the Lingwu Lord conquered the capital and died of old age. Lid wouldn't mind visiting her grave, writing an exquisite eulogy for her, praising her hundreds of years of hard work, and then putting her in the textbooks to set a good example for the children in Yuxi City.

Unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, she was resurrected with full health. The constant reincarnation of the Spiritual Lord required the damage of the soul, but Clenus could help her repair her soul, and Clenus himself was immortal, so the Spiritual Lord was already close to immortality, and all the plans that Reed had prepared were wasted.

Lid stared at the baby lying in the arms of the Lingwu Lord, and now he regretted it very much. He should have found a reason to take the child away just now, but he still capsized in the gutter.

Lid looked at the baby girl, and the baby girl also blinked and looked at him. She was full and stopped crying. Her fear of Lid also weakened. After staring at Lid for a while, she felt that she could sense a familiar breath from Lid.

She looked behind her and saw sixteen tentacles swaying according to her wishes.

She looked at Reed again. There were still tentacles condensed from souls around Reed - Reed's tentacles were thicker than hers, but they obviously looked like the same type.

At that moment, the baby girl in the arms of the Lingwu Lord raised her little face, and behind her, it seemed as if a pattern of the universe and the starry sky slowly rose. Her brain, which was far smarter than that of ordinary humans, began to work rapidly, and it seemed as if countless lengthy equations collided with each other in her brain, creating sparks of truth.

The baby girl stretched out a tentacle towards Lid and gently poked the back of Lid's hand. Then, a pure smile suddenly appeared on her dazed little face. She happily stretched out her hand to Lid for a hug, and called out incoherently:

"Daddy... hug me..."

The Lingwu Lord was stunned on the spot, and a thousand horses were galloping through Lid's mind.

He carefully weighed the losses and thought it was better to refuse at this time. No matter what happened between him and Lingwu Lord under the sea, he could pretend nothing happened after returning, because feelings would fade with time and one day they would be controlled by reason. After returning this time, they would never see each other again, and the next time they met would be on the battlefield, so he could not conquer Lingwu Lord, and Lingwu Lord could not influence him.

But it’s different when you have multiple children!

Not to mention that the existence of this child is equivalent to constantly reminding the two people not to forget what happened during this period of time. Let's say that if they meet on the battlefield in the future, and the other side swings this child forward, will they still fight?

Reed was unwilling to continue to have any relationship with Lord Lingwu, and Lord Lingwu held the same idea.

So at the first moment, Lord Lingwu hugged the baby in his arms tightly, and Reed also looked away.

Then, the sharp cry echoed in the tower once again.

The child was crying breathlessly, muttering intermittently:

"Daddy doesn't want me anymore..."

"I will be good and obedient from now on, Daddy, please don't leave, okay..."

"Daddy, I'm sorry..."

Lid's mouth twitched, and he glanced at the back of his hand. He finally recalled how Clenus looked when he was dying. He had seen too many experiences of children from single-parent families. If possible, who wouldn't want both parents? Before he left, Clenus had given him the secret method of soul materialization. Now he was crying heartbrokenly as he looked at the newly born Pillar of Eternal Life. This was not very kind.

Thinking of this, Lid finally sighed, stepped forward and took the baby from the Lingwu Lord, smiling:

"alright……"

He held the baby in front of him and uttered the famous words that were widely circulated in the Holy Land of Zaun:

"I'm your dad. I'm your dad, okay?"

The baby finally burst into laughter.

Lord Lingwu looked at the scene in front of her with a grim expression, but anyone could see that she was in a complicated mood.

In her past life, if someone dared to take advantage of her like this, she would have been dragged out and chopped without her having to do anything. But now she couldn't do anything. Not to mention the odds of winning or losing in a fight with Lid, the child in Lid's hand was a favor to her after all, and it wasn't wrong for the child to want a father. It was just too coincidental.

What should I do after returning to the territory?

Do you want to let Reed go?

What will the child eat in the future? What should I teach her?

What if she makes a fuss when she misses Reed in the future?

There were countless questions that the Lingwu Lord needed to think about, but she had never experienced what was happening right now, and hundreds of years of experience were of no use at all.

Of course, Lid didn't care what the Lingwu Lord was thinking. He had already started playing the game of lifting the child up high, while trying to incite and seduce her:

"Let me think, Zhao, Ke, Li... I'll call you Chocolate! Your nickname is Xiao Ke, how about that?"

Xiao Ke nodded happily, and was held by Lid as if he was flying. He had just cried too hard and was still hiccuping from time to time, but he was also laughing happily, hiccuping while laughing, and occasionally blowing his nose, and his two hands kept waving in the air.

Lidd continued:

"Well...Xiao Ke, there are a lot of fun things at Dad's place. Would you like to go with Dad?"

The Lingwu Lord immediately realized that something was wrong, and immediately frowned and shouted:

"Hey. Don't push your luck."

Even such a young child wants to poach others, is he still a human being?

If he really runs away, won't we suffer a huge loss?

Lord Lingwu planned to take action first and get the child back first.

Xiao Ke bit his thumb, thought for a while, and said to Lid:

"No."

Lid was greatly surprised, but the baby had already reached out to the Spiritual Martial Lord who was welcoming her, and once again threw herself into her arms, whispering to Lid:

"Daddy, you're so fierce. I want Mommy to hold me."

Lid was speechless for a while. He wanted to pry open Chocolate's eyelids and let her open her eyes to see that woman was a model of cold-bloodedness and ruthlessness, but after thinking about it, he gave up. This wave of moves was lost from the start. At the beginning, he grabbed her tentacles and picked her up for interrogation without knowing the truth. This incident probably left a little shadow on her young mind.

Some things cannot be forced, and Lid decisively chose to give up. But Xiao Ke was very keenly aware of something and asked Lid pitifully:

"Dad, are you going to separate from Mom from now on?"

Reed didn't know how to answer this question, or even how to explain to her the relationship between the two of them.
