Lang Yue's Worries

Yun Feng's words were like a shot of adrenaline to Tang Wulin.

He took a deep breath and looked at her solemnly.

"Don't worry. I'll definitely grow stronger. One day, I'll be able to stand in front of you and protect you."

"..."

Yun Feng blinked and looked at him.

Tang Wulin said, "Believe me!"

Yun Feng pursed her lips before nodding. "Mm, I believe you."

How strange!

Why did Tang Wulin suddenly give off the bizarre feeling of a loyal dog?

When school ended that evening, Ya Li and the others came to take Yun Feng and Tang Wulin back to the War God Hall.

On the way, her gaze remained on Yun Feng. Then, she suddenly frowned.

"Yun girl."

"Mm?"

Hearing Ya Li call for her, Yun Feng turned to look at her.

"What is it, Your Holiness Holy Spirit?"

The moment Long Tianwu and Su Mengjun heard Ya Li call Yun Feng, they immediately became alert, watching Ya Li and listening to her conversation with Yun Feng.

After a brief pause, Ya Li asked, "...Has your spiritual power improved again?"

Yun Feng's spiritual power was at the peak of the Spirit Origin Realm.

It was stronger than that of most children her age.

That had been the result of the test after she arrived at the War God Hall, and Ya Li knew it as well.

Yet Yun Feng now felt as though her spiritual power had become somewhat stronger than before. Though the change was slight, Ya Li could still sense it.

Ya Li's martial soul was the Wish Angel, and she had absorbed an unknown amount of faith power. This made her especially sensitive in such matters.

She could tell at a glance.

Neither Long Tianwu nor Su Mengjun had noticed this change.

Hearing Ya Li's question, Yun Feng blinked.

After absorbing the Gold Dragon King's power that had leaked from Tang Wulin, she had indeed loosened some of the restrictions on her spiritual power.

Ya Li could sense even that?

As expected of the continent's strongest healing-type Hyper Douluo.

As she thought that, she lowered her head and looked herself over.

"It seems... there has been some improvement."

Upon learning that Yun Feng's spiritual power had broken through, the group hurried back to the War God Hall.

Before everyone, Yun Feng released her spiritual power.

"The Spirit Connection Realm!"

"Yun Feng, your spiritual power has indeed broken through to the Spirit Connection Realm!"

Feeling the spiritual power Yun Feng had released, Ya Li and the others were delighted.

Tang Wulin's gaze darkened when he heard that.

Yun Feng was even younger than him, yet she had already reached the Spirit Connection Realm?

No!

He had to work hard too. He had to become stronger so he could protect his family!

After learning that Yun Feng's spiritual power had broken through, Tang Ziran and Lang Yue were overjoyed as well. The stronger Yun Feng was, the more at ease they felt.

They could not provide the two children with especially good conditions.

Instead, because of Yun Feng, they were able to live in the War God Hall and obtain such excellent resources!

All the couple could do was make sure Yun Feng did not have to worry about them.

Thus, that very night, they prepared a lavish meal and waited for Yun Feng to return.

"Feng'er!"

Hearing voices outside the door, Lang Yue hurried over to open it.

She had thought only Yun Feng and Tang Wulin had returned, but Ya Li was following behind them.

She froze slightly upon seeing Ya Li.

"Your Holiness Holy Spirit?"

Speaking of which, as a mother, Lang Yue could actually see Ya Li's feelings toward Yun Feng. To be fair, she did not want her child to be taken away.

But she could not refuse Ya Li either!

Whether in status, position, or strength, the difference between them was simply too great.

"Why are you..."

"Hello!"

Ya Li wore a smile as she held Yun Feng's hand and said to Lang Yue, "I heard you were celebrating, so I came uninvited. Would it be alright if I joined you?"

"...Yes, of course!"

Lang Yue nodded.

Ya Li smiled and thanked her, nodding in return before walking inside with Yun Feng and Tang Wulin.

The War God Hall had provided Tang Ziran's family with good accommodations.

Their home was far more spacious than their two-bedroom apartment in Aolai City. It would not have been a problem for several more people to stay there.

Yun Feng's room was not here. Since she had arrived earlier, she had been assigned a separate room.

Still, she occasionally came back here to stay.

It should have been a happy meal.

Yet Lang Yue felt as though she were chewing wax.

Ya Li saw through her thoughts, so after dinner, she directly took her leave.

Yun Feng stayed the night.

That night.

Lang Yue leaned against the headboard.

"Are you unhappy?"

Tang Ziran sat down beside her and looked at his wife.

Lang Yue raised her head and looked at Tang Ziran.

"Mm."

She nodded.

Seeing her like this, Tang Ziran quickly understood what was going on. He asked, "Is it because of... the Holy Spirit Douluo? Lang Yue, I can't bear to part with Feng'er either, but... with her talent, it's impossible for us to keep her by our side. She is destined to enter a higher world."

"I know!"

Lang Yue nodded, tears welling in her eyes.

Looking at Tang Ziran, she hesitated before saying, "I just... I just can't bear to part with her. Even though she isn't my biological daughter, I... I really do love her as my daughter."

Tang Ziran pulled Lang Yue into his arms and comforted her. "I love her too, but we cannot refuse the Holy Spirit Douluo."

Lang Yue sobbed softly.

Suddenly, there was a knock at the door.

Yun Feng's voice sounded from outside.

"Dad, Mom?"

"Are you asleep?"

Hearing her voice, both of them frowned.

Lang Yue looked up at Tang Ziran and whispered, "It's Feng'er. Did she hear us?"

Tang Ziran was about to open the door, but Lang Yue grabbed his hand, somewhat hesitant.

"Ziran..."

"We have to face it sooner or later."

Tang Ziran patted Lang Yue's hand and went to open the door.

Yun Feng stood outside.

When she saw Tang Ziran open the door, she called out to her parents, then ran straight to the bed and hugged Lang Yue. "Mom, are you unhappy?"

"Is it because of the Holy Spirit Douluo?"

Sure enough!

Yun Feng already knew.

Hearing this, Lang Yue pursed her lips slightly, unsure how to answer.

Yun Feng hugged Lang Yue and comforted her. "Mom, no matter where I go in the future, the fact that I'm your daughter will never change."

To Yun Feng, family was not essential, but at least for now, she needed it.

As for the future...

Who could say what the future held?

In any case, she did not dislike Tang Ziran and Lang Yue.

"Your Holiness Holy Spirit doesn't have children. She's only good to me because she feels a connection with me."

"...I know. I just..."

Lang Yue pursed her lips.

Seeing that Lang Yue was still hesitant, Yun Feng turned directly to Tang Ziran.

"...Dad, go sleep in another room tonight!"

"Alright!"

Tang Ziran nodded cheerfully.

He was relieved that Yun Feng could comfort Lang Yue.

After a night of reassurance and companionship, Lang Yue finally felt at ease. She no longer worried that Ya Li would take her daughter away.

"Has your mother calmed down?"

The next day.

Ya Li looked at Yun Feng and asked gently.
