I Might Be A Fake Cultivator - Chapter 1983
Chapter 1983: God-Tier Consolation
A kiss.
A smile.
That was all it took to dispel the dejection and pain in her heart, as if dazzling sunlight had broken through the darkness of the night.
Xu Xiaolan stared blankly at the man before him and was unable to repress her tears any longer as she dove into An Lin’s arm and sobbed uncontrollably.
“How did I become like this…
“I-I’m so ugly now, how can I face anyone like this?
“Waah…”
Xu Xiaolan sobbed as her hands gripped tightly onto An Lin’s robe.
She wasn’t sad when she had become an infant, or a little girl, or a teenager, or a middle-aged woman. That was because throughout all of those stages of development, she was still quite beautiful.
But now, she had become an eighty-year-old woman, and she almost had a mental breakdown when she looked at herself in the mirror.
Objectively speaking, looks didn’t really matter to cultivators. But could she really remain a hundred percent objective in a situation like this? This was a world that revered and appreciated beauty. How could she just ignore the fact that she was no longer beautiful?
Xu Xiaolan thought that she didn’t care about her looks, but she only realized now that she didn’t care before as she was very beautiful herself. No matter how she changed, she would only grow more and more beautiful, so of course she didn’t care about looks.
However, when she became an old and shriveled prune and her gorgeous features were replaced by this tree-bark-like face, she was struck by a massive blow!
An Lin held the sobbing Xiaolan tightly in his arms, and his heart also throbbed with pain. He didn’t want her to be sad, but he didn’t know what to do either. All he could do was to hold her tightly and reassure her through his embrace that he would never leave her.
The passage of time was always accompanied by age and separation.
An Lin couldn’t decide who would leave this world first, but he would stay with Xiaolan for the duration of their time in this world. He didn’t put these thoughts into words, but he knew that Xiaolan would be aware of his choice.
“Don’t worry, Xiaolan, this should just be temporary. Even though you look older, your life force has not weakened, so this is most likely just an after-effect of inheriting the Holy Berth. You’ll be back to normal in no time…” An Lin offered words of consolation.
“But… but what should I do… I’m so old and ugly now… I’m too embarrassed to face anyone like this…” Xu Xiaolan lay in An Lin’s arms and murmured with a pained expression.
An Lin’s eyes lit up. “Then who do you think is uglier, you or Xiao Chou?”
Xu Xiaolan shuddered as a hint of rage appeared in her eyes. “How can you insult me with this comparison just because I look older now?”
An Lin smiled. “See? Xiao Chou is so ugly, but he still isn’t embarrassed to show his face to the world. What do you have to be embarrassed about? Xiao Chou may be hideous, but he still has an extremely gorgeous wife and can face the world without any worries, so what do you have to be worried about?”
Xu Xiaolan’s mouth gaped open, and she had no response to this.
Xiao Chou’s extraordinarily hideous features surfaced in her mind.
Thinking about it that way…
She did indeed feel a lot better!
…
“Atchoo!” On the eastern front, Xiao Chou suddenly sneezed before looking around with a perplexed expression.
Could it be that someone was saying bad things about him?
“Die, ugly monkey!” In the distance, a few Soul Piercing Stage Heavenly Human Tribe generals rushed toward the armor-clad monkey.
Xiao Chou turned toward the Soul Piercing Stage generals, and a boundless, dazzling light erupted from his bulb-like eyes. The Soul Piercing Stage powerful beings were struck by the feeling that they were rushing toward two suns…
It was so bright!
Bang bang bang!
Xiao Chou blinded the Heavenly Human Tribe Generals with his bulb-like eyes before striking them with his silver staff, drawing cries of anguish from them.
“Die, stinky monkey!” A Heavenly Human Tribe general who was obscured in shadows suddenly appeared behind Xiao Chou before striking toward Xiao Chou’s neck.
This general had covered his eyes with shadows to prevent himself from being blinded, and he was now taking this opportunity to strike Xiao Chou down.
A black spear tore through the air like a bolt of black lightning.
When Xiao Chou realized there was an assailant behind him, it was already too late.
An elated expression appeared on the Heavenly Human Tribe general’s face, but right at this moment, countless tails suddenly obscured the light of the sun. Six snowy-white fox tails came crashing down like a massive palm.
“No one touches my Little Monkey!” an enraged cry erupted overhead.
Boom!
The tails crashed down with mountainous force.
The Heavenly Human Tribe General let loose a wail of anguish before being smashed into the ground, creating a massive crater beneath him.
Xiao Chou only turned around then with a hideous smile on his face. “Didn’t you see that there are two of us?”
The Heavenly Human Tribe general’s expression was filled with indignation and rage at the sight of such an exquisitely beautiful woman willingly leaning into Xiao Chou’s arms.
He was just about to say something when a silver staff crashed down mercilessly toward his head.
Bam!
The Heavenly Human Tribe general was dead.
Xiao Chou and Bai Yao held hands as they went elsewhere on the battlefield.
Da Bai was nearby and was just about to help Xiao Chou, but he quickly ate some dog food to alleviate his sorrow as a single dog before charging toward other Heavenly Human Tribe powerful beings.
This was a battle on an extremely large scale, and both sides were fighting without any reservations.
The Heavenly Human Tribe only staged a retreat after over twenty million of their forces had been killed.
At this moment, their numbers had dropped to ninety million, which was the same as the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army, but the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army had started off with a hundred million troops.
This meant that the Heavenly Human Tribe had suffered twice the number of casualties compared to their Kingdom of the Nine States United Army counterparts.
One had to realize that all Heavenly Human Tribe powerful beings possessed combat prowess that was predominantly at a higher level than that of the powerful beings on the Tai Chu Continent. However, this battle certainly didn’t reflect that.
This was an unimaginable result.
Long Aotian looked on at the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army as they chased the fleeing Heavenly Human Tribe powerful beings, and he suddenly understood the difference between these two armies.
An army that had experienced despair before finding boundless hope was incomparable to a normal army.
The Kingdom of the Nine States United Army gave chase for over one thousand five hundred kilometers.
It was only when three Heavenly Gods appeared among the Heavenly Human Tribe United Army’s ranks when the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army finally halted in their footsteps.
The Celestial Thearch and the Ancient Dragon Empress led the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army from the forefront, and they faced off fearlessly against the Heavenly Gods.
They were the most powerful beings among the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army on the eastern front. Both of them were extremely proficient in Heaven Crushing Techniques and were powerful enough to combat Heavenly Gods in battle.
The Celestial Thearch and the Ancient Dragon Empress could continue battling, but they didn’t really want to as the Kingdom of the Nine States United Army had secured victory in this battle already.
“Charge!”
“Hahaha, kill them all!”
At this moment, an earth-shattering roar erupted.
Two gargantuan black dragons suddenly pounced on the three Heavenly Gods, seemingly with no regard for their lives.
The Heavenly Human Tribe United Army and Kingdom of the Nine States United Army were both shocked to see this.
