Confusion

Soon after the auction ended, the Chinese New Year, a festival unique to Huaxia Country, arrived.

Throughout the entire land of Huaxia Country, lanterns and decorations were everywhere.

For ordinary people, the calamities caused by monsters since the Great Nirvana Period have completely passed. Unless one aspires to become a martial artist, life now is no different from before the Grand Nirvana.

With the continuous expansion and increase of the Base City, the living environment for humans is no longer as crowded as before, and the standard of living has been greatly improved.

Therefore, during this important annual festival, families Huaxia Country decorate their homes with lanterns and colorful decorations, and sit together to enjoy a reunion dinner.

Unfortunately, Yang Wu did not return to Earth on this most important festival in Huaxia Country.

This is Yang Wu's second Spring Festival spent on Laiyin Planet.

Although reuniting with family in the Virtual Universe is no different from reuniting in reality, the atmosphere of family reunion on Earth is something that cannot be felt.

However, it takes more than twenty days to return to Earth from Laiyin Planet, so a round trip would take nearly two months.

For the sake of cultivation, Yang Wu can now only reunite with his family in the Virtual Universe.

After all, this separation is for the sake of future companionship.

Only by becoming stronger and stronger can he grant his loved ones a longer lifespan, until they become Immortal with eternal life.

For the next period of time, Yang Wu stayed in the Flame Mountain and devoted himself to cultivation.

Until three months later.

"The one who attacked me in the simulation was actually this Hei Ming!"

Inside the D9-class Spaceship, Yang Wu stared expressionlessly at the simulated scene outside.

In space, a powerful Domain Lord Level expert was struggling, but he was firmly bound by the World Energy of a Peak World Lord expert, and how could he possibly break free?

"Junior brother!" Natie, a young-looking Domain Lord expert next to Yang Wu, calmly asked, "What do you plan to do?"

"Senior brother, I still want to clarify things first!" Yang Wu said in a deep voice.

Then, the hatch of the D9-class Spaceship opened, and a suit of alloy combat uniform flew out, heading towards the Domain Lord Hei Ming, who had already been brought under control in the distance.

Just yesterday, Domain Lord Hei Ming invited Yang Wu to a planet not far from Laiyin Planet.

Logically speaking, Yang Wu, who was focused on cultivation, would not have accepted the invitation.

But Yang Wu really wanted to know if the powerful figure who killed him in outer space during the last simulation was Hei Ming.

After all, Hei Ming had always treated him well. Even if Hei Ming had other motives, as long as Hei Ming wasn't the one who killed him during the simulation, Yang Wu would still help him in the future.

Therefore, after agreeing to Hei Ming's request, Yang Wu immediately asked his senior brother Natie, for help, wanting to see what Hei Ming was really up to.

Ultimately, this led to the scene we see today.

"Senior Hui Yan, thank you very much this time!" After flying to Hei Ming, Yang Wu first thanked the World Lord expert who had controlled Hei Ming.

This Peak World Lord expert, Hui Yan, was one of the guards left by Yang Wu's teacher Jinguang Marquis, to his only son, Hei Ming. He had long been recognized by the Origin Law of Fire and possessed extremely formidable strength.

Hui Yan simply nodded without saying anything more. He was one of the most powerful World Lord under Jinguang Marquis, and he wouldn't have made a move this time even if Yang Wu was Jinguang Marquis's disciple, had it not been for Natie's intervention.

Then, Yang Wu turned his gaze to Hei Ming, who had already been brought under control, and asked in a deep voice, "Senior Hei Ming, why?"

"Hmph! Why?" Hei Ming sneered as he saw Natie, the Owner of Laiyin Planet, slowly flying over with Yang Wu not far away. He said angrily, "Of course, it's for breaking through!"

"For the past year or so, I've done my best to help you. You don't think I've asked for nothing in return, do you?" Hei Ming asked rhetorically.

"Of course I know what you're thinking, Senior Hei Ming, but there's nothing I can do for the time being!" Yang Wu said helplessly.

Yang Wu's two teachers, Hu Yanbo and Jin Guanghou, were already dead. Jinguang Marquis had not even guided Yang Wu, so how could he possibly guide a Domain Lord whose lifespan was nearing its end?

"Heh heh, powerless?" Hei Ming sneered, saying, "Well said! For over a year, I've been trying my best to help you, but you've refused my requests every time. Since you're powerless, I'll naturally take matters into my own hands and get what I want!"

"What do you want?" Yang Wu asked.

"Of course, it's the treasures on your body!" Hei Ming was quite agitated. "What right do you, a mere Star Level, have to possess so many treasures? If these treasures were mine, I could definitely break through to the World Lord Level!"

Hei Ming looked at Yang Wu and Natie, and said with extreme resentment, "You people either possess extraordinary talent or have incredibly powerful backgrounds, how could you possibly understand my pain?"

"I have struggled in this universe for over nine hundred thousand years. In my early years, when I was still at the Universe Level, I was almost captured and enslaved. Later, I sought refuge with other forces, but my status was not high! Now that my lifespan is coming to an end, this may be my last chance. How can I give up so easily?"

"So, you chose to attack me?" Yang Wu pressed.

"Yes!" Hei Ming sighed and said, "However, in the end, you are still one step ahead! I'm afraid you've never trusted me at all, young friend. Calling me a friend is laughable!"

"If you truly considered me a friend, why would you hide your relationship with the Owner of Laiyin Planet?"

"If I had known about your relationship with him, how could I have laid a hand on you?" Hei Ming sneered. "This outcome is entirely your own doing!"

"I caused this all by myself?" Yang Wu was speechless.

If it weren't for the greed in Hei Ming's heart, with his help, he would have had no problem breaking through to the level of World Lord, let alone becoming Immortal God.

Unfortunately, Hei Ming had no patience whatsoever. After realizing there was no hope, he chose the worst possible approach.

"Junior brother, don't listen to him!" Natie said calmly from the side, "You're still young and don't understand the madness of people facing the end of their lives. Even if he doesn't attack you now, he will in the future!"

"If you ask me, we should just kill him!" Natie said casually. To him, the life of an ordinary Domain Lord was really no big deal.

Upon hearing Natie's words, Hei Ming panicked completely.

Although he is nearing the end of his lifespan, he can still live for a while longer.

Moreover, if he hadn't hoped to increase his lifespan after breaking through, he wouldn't have rashly chosen to attack Yang Wu.

This shows that Hei Ming also has a great fear of death.

"Yang Wu!" Hei Ming quickly said, "I've been guiding your cultivation all this time; even if I haven't done anything meritorious, I've certainly put in the effort!"

"Now that I am nearing the end of my life, I beg you to spare my life. I promise I will never do such a thing again!"

Yang Wu kept thinking.

To him, Hei Ming was nothing; he could choose to kill him or let him go.

However, there is one question that Yang Wu needs to seriously consider: can experiences in the Simulator be considered as real experiences?

While it was Hei Ming who attacked him in reality this time, it was also because of his previous simulation experience that he changed his attitude towards Hei Ming.

Scenes began to flash through Yang Wu's mind.

Since he came to this world, he has not even had more than twenty simulations in total. With the astonishing memory of Star Level powerhouse, he naturally remembers them all clearly.

In the Simulator, he was killed many times. Some were killed by monsters, some by the Golden Horned Beast, and others by Li Yao, Atkin, and even the Nuolanshan Family's fleet.

Although Yang Wu had successfully dealt with all these enemies, Yang Wu had never considered this issue.
