I Love Destroying Worlds' Plot

Chapter 1288: 18.126 First Grey Star - God of Sea, Lanyu I

Anairam Trenchʼs Core Region

Everyone set up their own tents and got ready for bed after dinner. Considering that Su Jin had not yet awoken from his meditation, they could depart from this spot. The only option available to them is to spend one more night here. After dinner, the remaining hunters went to bed right away. They are all exhausted from the training they did before supper.

So they decided to spend the entire evening sleeping.

Even Mo Yuhan, who had just eaten, was exhausted and dozed off like a pig. It was up to Lu Ming to set up their tent and haul his sworn brother inside. However, he chose to stay by the bonfire and watch over Su Jin on the ocean below rather than go to sleep like the others. Guarding for the night was Lu Shangʼs other decision.

Thus, the brothers awkwardly sat next to the bonfire. After all, the Lu Ming of today is not like the Lu Ming of yesterday. The brothers had never made up in their past lifetimes, which the present Lu Ming was aware of.

Lu Shang said, ”Waiting here for your lover is alright. Active Volcano Island is not an easy place. What are you looking for in such a place?”

”Actually, I donʼt know exactly what it was. But maybe like Su Jinʼs Ocean Pearl, there is something in that zone that can greatly increase my ability to control fire. That voice was urging me to get stronger, saying there is some kind of calamity about to befall all living things in this world. I myself couldnʼt understand why that voice kept on saying that. Isnʼt brother and brother Ye still here?

What kind of calamity do you guys canʼt fight against?” Lu Ming explained.

Lu Shang didnʼt speak right away and stared at his younger brother. Lu Ming noticed his elder brotherʼs gaze and felt that something was wrong with it.

”Did I say something wrong?” Lu Ming asked.

Lu Shang said, ”My body is a borrowed vessel of a God. It can be said that his restrictions are the same as mine. AʼMing, I cannot fight with you to protect this world during the calamity. Not only me, but your brother Leica, Ji Yoonjun, and Lord Ye as well. This is because we are forbidden to do so.”

”What will happen if you help us?” Lu Ming asked. Suddenly, he felt his brotherʼs soft eyes grow distant and turn away from him. God must have assumed control and been inhabiting the body of his elder sibling.

Warden Lou answered his question. ”We will be forced to leave abruptly, causing injuries in this vesselʼs soul. Unless we finish our mission, we cannot leave. Once that happens, your brother will fall into a coma and maybe not wake up. But as long as the world doesnʼt reject my soul and I leave after completing my mission, he will be okay. Leica and Ji Yoonjun are in the same situation.”

”What about Brother Ye, then?” Lu Ming asked.

Lu Shang said, ”The Lord only listens to his wife. If you can convince his wife, he will make a move. But Lord Mo doesnʼt seem to care about anything aside from his husband and children, so donʼt expect too much. Moreover, Lord Mo has already helped Mo Yuhan increase his strength so he can be of help to you. I donʼt think he will choose to interfere more.”

”But Doctor Hei said, Brother Ye made a move when that... What was that? Black Leifa? Didnʼt he help block that dangerous lightning? Isnʼt that the same as getting involved?” Lu Ming asked.

Lu Shang said, ”His wife asked him that this place canʼt be destroyed. After all, once that black lightning falls, the whole ocean will be gone and their sleeping children will be affected. If Young Lord Jingxia and Princess Anxia arenʼt around, they might not move at all. In their eyes, the lives of others donʼt mean much.”

Lu Ming had seen enough to know that the Ye family kept their distance from everyone else, even within their own clans. They never engaged with them directly. After eating dinner with the others, he even got the impression that Mo Xuejing was becoming icier and perhaps even more uncaring than he had been in the past. When they became separated from them, something had to have happened.

It seemed like we were witnessing the emotionless Mo Xuejing of the past, yet in the presence of Lord Ye and their kids, this Mo Xuejing was just human.

Lu Ming said, ”I do not have the guts to ask him anyway. Sigh~ if this is the case then... Going to the Active Volcano Island is the only way. I should just increase my strength as much as I can.”
