Heaven Deste Region, Heavenly Demon Sect.


    Not even a day had gone by since Ling Chen has returned to the Heavenly Demon Sect, and the news about himing back spread throughout the whole Heaven Deste Region like a storm.


    He also became a hot topic for almost everyone living in the Heaven Deste Region. Whether they were regr mortal or warriors, every single inhabitant of the Heaven Deste Region knew about the little devil as well as his incredible and miraculous deeds.


    Whether it was the destruction of the Supreme Sword Dao Sect, the Yan Empire, and the subjugation of the demon beast in the demon beast mountain range, all of these events were known by the public.


    To many of them, Ling Chen was like a savior and God. His actions had directly or indirectly helped the majority of them, warriors and mortal alike, especially the subjugation of the demon beast in demon beast mountain range.


    At the same time, all the powerful sects and influences within the Heaven Deste Region sent their experts or representatives to the Heavenly Demon Sect to pay their respects after hearing the news.


    Even the little sects and vagrant warriors from afar rushed to the Heavenly Demon Sect immediately without minding the cost. They all wanted to see the legendary little devil.


    Meanwhile, the Heavenly Demon Sect became even livelier than usual with so many guestsing to their respect to the little devil, the uncrowned king of the Heaven Deste Region.


    Not to mention the others, even the elders and the disciples of the Heavenly Demon Sect were unable to remain calm upon the arrival of Ling Chen, especially after witnessing his battle earlier.


    That was even more true of the new disciples who got epted into the sect after Ling Chen had left, the excitement in their minds was unspeakable. It was their chance to finally meet their hero up close.


    ....


    Heavenly Demon Sect, The Guardian Mountain Peak.


    The Guardian Mountain Peak, as the name suggested, was the remote and quiet mountain peak upied by Ling Chen after he was appointed as the guardian of the Heavenly Demon Sect by the elders and disciples a few years ago.


    It was considered the most forbidden and sacred ce throughout the whole Heavenly Demon Sect. Except for the sect leader, no one was permitted to enter this ce without permission.


    At this moment, within a small courtyard in the Guardian Mountain Peak, Ling Chen sat quietly while happily talking to his father, Ling Tian.


    As for Ling Lei and the others, they went to stroll around in the sect as they were bored.


    "Father, are you sure that you don''t want toe with me when I''m leaving?" Asked Ling Chen with an expecting look on his face.


    After reuniting with his father and talking about old times, the first thing Ling Chen did was to talk to him about the endless universe outside this world as well as his n to leave soon.


    As his only remaining parent and also the closest member of his family aside from his children, Ling Chen didn''t want to leave him behind and asked him toe with him. However, he tly refused which kinda caught Ling Chen by surprise.


    Nheless, he didn''t want to give up so easily as he asked him again.


    "Sorry son, I can''t. Though you might not know, after you left for Divine Demon Beast Region and the Heaven Suppression Region, I took on another wife and she''s pregnant with twins. I want to stay more in this world and peacefully enjoy my life. There''s still many things I want to do here and many ces that I haven''t visited yet." Answered Ling Tian with an apologetic look on his face.


    Seeing the look on his father''s face, Ling Chen knew that he had no intention of leaving with him. As such, he didn''t press any further as he said." Take this spatial ring with you father. Inside, there''s many treasures, battle techniques, and Dao Law Seeds."


    Upon hearing Ling Chen''s words, Ling Tian didn''t dare to reject as he happily took the spatial ring from his son. At the same time, he was also extremely proud to have a son like him.


    Though he didn''t know much about the treasures and battle techniques inside the spatial ring, he knew just how important and priceless the Dao Law Seeds were as Ling Chen had already told him about them.


    Each one of them was enough to create a 1st Life Transition Mortal Deity rank warrior and above. As the rule and thews of this world haven''t matured or beenpleted yet, one couldn''t break through the legendary Martial God without the help of a Dao Law Seed. As such, the Dao Law Seeds alone was beyond priceless.


    "Ohh yeah father, do you have any news about Ling Jian." Suddenly asked Ling Chen.


    Even after venturing into the Heaven Suppression Region and the Divine Demon Beast Region, Ling Chen had never heard anything about his older brother despite looking for him. It was as if he had disappeared into thin air.


    Upon hearing Ling Chen''s questions, Ling Tian didn''t even bother to hide anything from him as he awkwardly said." That rebel child is still in the Heaven Deste Region."


    "Though I don''t know the details, it seems like he and the Yan Emperor had a disagreement while they were fleeing. They fought and the Yan Emperor crippled his cultivation and left him for dead."


    "Luckily for him, he was saved by a farmer in a small vige in the Pure Maiden Sect''s Domain. After nursing back to health by one of the vigers, he decided to stay and live in the small vige like a regr mortal."


    "Last time I check, he''s already married and even has a little girl now. I was waiting for when youe back to decide what we are going to do with him." Nonchntly exined Ling Tian.


    Though Ling Tian acted and talked as though he didn''t care about the life and death of Ling Jian, Ling Chen could tell that it wasn''t the case. He still cared for him despite his betrayal five years ago.


    Not only that, when he mentioned the daughter of Ling Jian, there was a look of longing in his eyes. Though it was very subtle, it didn''t escape Ling Chen''s eyes.


    "You didn''t have to wait for me to make such a decision. Ling Jian is your son, as a parent, you have the right to decide whether to punish or to


    forgive him for his wrongs doing."


    "And as your son, I''ll ept and abide by your decision. Do whatever you think is best, don''t worry about me. Not to mention, I won''t stay in this world for long." Exined Ling Chen with a slight smile on his face. He really didn''t care much about Ling Jian. The only reason he was looking for him was for his father.


    If before, he might not be able to understand the feeling and the hesitation of his father. However, after having these little devils, he could understand his struggle.


    Just like that, the father and son continued to happily talk for another hour before Ling Tian decided to leave as Ling Lei and the other just came back.


    "Father, can I ask you a question before you leave."Suddenly asked Ling Chen as he was looking at Ling Tian who was about to leave.


    "What is it, son." Answered Ling Tian.


    "Have you ever notice anything weird about mother when she was alive?" Asked Ling Chen with a serious expression on his face.


    Though Ling Tian didn''t know why Ling Chen asked him this sudden weird question, he still had an idea and decided to answer him honestly without asking why." There was nothing weird about your mother. She was like any regr human being."


    Upon hearing his father''s answer, Ling Chen thanked him before he left even though it wasn''t the answer he was looking for.


    After Ling Tian left, Ling Chen''s expression became serious as he looked at the sky and said." Who were you mother?"


    Just like himself, Ling Chen had found out that his mother was also a Fateless after going through the memories of the Great Luo Martial God. Her soul didn''t belong to this world. It might seem like a coincidence, but Ling Chen didn''t believe it as they were the only two Fateless people in this entire world.
