Chapter 1039: Reunion
“Hey, Lingzhu! How did those two beasts get into this tower? Did you give them the tools?” Sheng Ming, the life goddess, inquired as she approached the Time Lord, who was observing Long Tianhuo and Feng Huang through a qi screen.
Instead, Huang Lingzhu did something that made Sheng Ming frown, especially since she turned into a middle-aged man, making her realize a few other things. “Your guesses are correct.
I used this form to meet Long Tianhuo, and it was I who warned him that his daughter would face great danger in the future, leading him to decide to send her to the lower realms, particularly considering her connection to Ling Yun and this universe. Although their daughter has awakened both of her bloodlines, she is still far from perfect, and only they can help her, especially her mother.
That’s why I gave her the key to enter this tower, so they can help her perfect herself.”
“You’re truly insane; do you know that?” Sheng Ming said it with a shake of her head. “Not only did you toy with Luxuria’s life, but you also toyed with Xiao Xiao’s.”
Huang Lingzhu immediately returned to her true form, but she grabbed Sheng Ming’s shoulder and took her away from the place beyond the mysterious tower.
In just a matter of seconds, they had arrived at the outermost edge of their universe, and Sheng Ming’s expression became horrified after she saw the darkness that began to swallow their universe, which was none other than the chaos.
“Back then, there were countless realms in this area, and countless living beings lived in them. Regrettably, the chaos engulfed them all, leaving behind only this darkness. Huang Lingzhu then stretched her hand forward and used her time ability, but the darkness did not stop at all, and it continued to move forward at a steady pace.
“Sooner or later, it will swallow our entire universe, and all living creatures will die swallowed by it, including us. That’s why I meticulously designed everything to prevent the destruction of our universe and ensure their survival.
Sheng Ming let out a heavy sigh as she continued to look towards the darkness, and she herself was fully aware of the gravity of their situation, but she still found it hard to accept Huang Lingzhu’s decision to toy with other people’s lives. “Does that mean you will let Xiao Xiao die in Zhu Ling’s hands?”
“Ling Yun needs a trigger for him to reach his full potential, and Xiao Xiao is the only one who can help him, as in the three prophecies left behind by Tang Xiao’s wife.” Sheng Ming frowned even more at Huang Lingzhu’s answer. “However, I myself doubt whether he can overcome his sorrow to reach his full potential, or will he submit to his sorrow and fall into darkness?”
“That’s why you decided to help them stop Zhu Ling?”
“Yes.” Huang Lingzhu answered Sheng Ming with a nod. “Unfortunately, Ling Yun’s wheel of destiny has shifted from the original, and it started with his accidental meeting with Meng Xianzi, which ultimately led him to meet Mu Shu.”
Sheng Ming was surprised to hear those two names. “Meng Xianzi and Mu Shu? Are the fates of those two women also connected to Ling Yun?”
“I’m uncertain about the connection between their fates and him.” Huang Lingzhu then sighed heavily before continuing. However, their fates had already connected, with Mu Shu becoming Ling Yun’s wife and Meng Xianzi becoming his master. Their meeting led him to meet the devil, and he eventually absorbed it so that he had a devil soul.
Moreover, we have seen that his devil soul has affected his dragon form, which has turned him into a devil dragon. That’s why I became doubtful about everything, and I’m afraid that he will fall into the devil’s path if Xiao Xiao dies, which would bring great misfortune to all living beings if that happened.”
Once again, Sheng Ming released a heavy sigh before speaking to Huang Lingzhu. “Honestly, I feel that Tang Xiao made a fatal mistake by telling you all that, and he shouldn’t have done it, especially since all of that made you do too many crazy things. I know your desire to save this universe and its inhabitants, and I also share the same feelings as you.
However, you shouldn’t have done all that, and you should have let everything go according to fate’s will. The outcome will not be as good as you expected, and I have a feeling that all of us will share the consequences of your decisions.”
After she said that, Sheng Ming immediately disappeared from Huang Lingzhu’s sight, as she felt fed up with all her decisions to toy with Ling Yun and the others’ lives. Unfortunately, everything had already happened, and it was beyond repair, so she could only wait for the final result in the future.
Meanwhile, Huang Lingzhu kept standing on her spot while looking at the darkness, and her mouth kept opening and closing while making soft voices, but only she knew about the words that came out of her mouth. After some time, she also disappeared from that place and returned to the mysterious tower, but her feelings continued to be shrouded in uncertainty.

Meanwhile, Ling Yun finally decided to go out with Ling Xi, especially since he wanted to head straight to the 31st floor. However, Zhou Yu, Xiao Xiao, and Fei Long immediately approached him before informing him of his parents-in-law’s arrival, which surprised him, especially since they arrived much earlier than he had expected. /.
Without thinking twice, Ling Yun immediately asked Zhou Yu to take them to meet Xiao Xiao’s parents, especially since he himself was curious about her parents. However, the Feng Ancestors, who already knew about Feng Huang’s presence at the mysterious tower, asked him to take them, as well as their two daughters, to meet her.
Since Zhou Yu told him that there would be no trouble to disturb them, Ling Yun decided to take them all, but Ling Xi decided not to join them, and he preferred to prepare them all to continue climbing to the higher floors.

Long Tianhuo was casually walking on the second safe floor, and he continued to laugh while talking to his wife. “Haha! Those beasts are too weak for me, so we can reach this floor in no time. Since we couldn’t find our children, they’re probably already far ahead of us. That’s why I’ll move faster so you can meet them sooner, especially our daughter.”
On hearing that, Feng Huang shook her head and inquired. “Aren’t you curious about our daughter, husband? After all, the last time you saw her was when she was a baby, and a little over three decades have passed, so she’s already a mature woman now.”
“Why should I be curious about our daughter, wife?” Long Tianhuo turned Feng Huang’s question around. “Our son is completely similar to me, remember? He is handsome, suave, and manly; even many young girls are crazy about him, such as Qi Jingyi.
You are an ice phoenix and the most beautiful woman in the universe, so our daughter will undoubtedly be as beautiful as you, or perhaps even more beautiful than you, especially since she also inherited my blood.”
“Ppfftt! Hahaha!” Feng Huang bursts into laughter at her husband’s narcissism. “Honestly, I still don’t understand why I fell in love with you, especially since I’ve never had a relationship with any man before you saved me.
However, I realize that it was your aggressive and narcissistic nature that made me fall in love with you, and your tireless efforts to melt my frozen heart were successful with the birth of our children.”
“Hehehe.” Long Tianhuo laughed as he scratched the back of his head. “Honestly, I never thought I would meet you in such a situation before. Back then, I was just enjoying my life and fulfilling my dream of exploring this universe, but I found you in a state of severe injury. Your beauty immediately captivated me, and I decided you were the only woman worthy of my lifelong partner.
That is why I tried very hard to melt your icy heart, and I am truly grateful that you are finally willing to accept me. Moreover, you also gave me two wonderful descendants, and nothing in this universe can replace them.”
Feng Huang smiled sweetly upon hearing that. “I hope our daughter can find a man like you who only loves her, so she will never feel disappointed in her life.”
Unfortunately, Feng Huang’s wish would never come true, especially since Xiao Xiao was already the wife of Ling Yun, who had many wives.
“Hmm?” Long Tianhuo and Feng Huang raised their eyebrows as the void hole opened in front of them, and their expressions turned to joy as Long Feng took Xiao Xiao out from within, making the two realize that she was their long-lost daughter.
However, their attention was diverted by Ling Yun and the four phoenix women who walked out behind their children, and they also recognized Zhou Yu’s identity as the spirit of void right away.
“Elder sister! They are our parents, and you can finally meet them.” Long Feng said this as he pulled Xiao Xiao, who was shaking with excitement, towards their parents. “Father! Mother! I managed to find my elder sister!”
