A World Worth Protecting

He already understood that no matter who she turned out to be, if she still had no reaction after he said all that, he could only search her soul. If she hurt or killed his good friend, he would make sure to torture the lady. If that wasn’t the case and the lady was indeed his good friend, then Wang Baole would delete her from his heart!

But just as he finished speaking and prepared to leave the secret chamber, Chen Xuemei’s body trembled violently. All of her confusion and doubt dissipated in an instant after she heard that. Her expression had an unprecedented change as she raised her head violently to look at Wang Baole. Although she instinctively wanted to remain silent, it was obviously difficult for her to do so, as even her voice trembled.

“I know Wang Baole!”

Wang Baole stopped, a smile appearing on his face.

“Who are you?”

“… Zhao Yameng!” After Chen Xuemei said that, the intent to die in her eyes was extremely intense. She had her head down as she continued speaking calmly.

“I can tell you whatever you want to know. I can tell you anything. But please, Senior… spare his life.”

Hearing that, Wang Baole instantly felt a little heartbroken, he smiled bitterly at Zhao Yameng and sighed.

“My dear Yameng, I’ve already exposed my true appearance, you… you really don’t believe me? I’m Wang Baole, can’t you see that?” Wang Baole raised his right hand and flipped it to take out a mirror to look at himself. After ensuring that he didn’t change into the wrong appearance, a sense of helplessness appeared on his face.

“I don’t blame you. I’ve indeed become more handsome than I was in the past. It’s normal for you not to recognize me…”

After hearing Wang Baole’s words, Zhao Yameng just remained silent.

This made Wang Baole feel somewhat awkward. But what he felt in his heart was different from what he expressed on his face. He still continued to observe Zhao Yameng, but his appearance showed a bitter smile.

“Yameng, I’m really Wang Baole. How did you become like this? How did you hide? I actually couldn’t recognize you.”

Zhao Yameng raised her head to take a deep look at Wang Baole. After taking a deep breath, she unleashed an unknown technique, and her face visibly changed. In the next moment, the absolutely stunning silhouette from Wang Baole’s memories appeared in front of him!

At the same time, Wang Baole’s Divine Sense finally felt the familiar disturbance after Zhao Yameng seemed to release some sort of seal. The disturbance came from the soul and had his aura as evidence. Hence, at that moment, Wang Baole could completely confirm that this lady… was Zhao Yameng!

This made him extremely surprised. As he gave a big smile, he went forward to give Zhao Yameng a big hug. But just as he stepped out, Zhao Yameng retreated several steps back suddenly, and a sense of iciness Wang Baole remembered her showing to outsiders appeared in her eyes. She exposed her true appearance because she had the same plan to check Wang Baole’s reaction. Although she hesitated in her heart, she quickly had her own judgment.

“Do you think I’m a three-year-old toddler, Senior? Do you think it’s that easy to deceive me? I’ve already exposed my true appearance and said my name. If you still want to know more, please bring Wang Baole to meet me!

“Also, you can search my soul. But I have to remind you, Senior. Since you can’t understand how I changed my appearance, there’s no way you can release the seal on my soul. If you search my soul by force, you won’t get anything.”

Wang Baole was a little flabbergasted.

“I’m really Wang Baole. My gosh, you still don’t believe me at this point. What have you gone through over the years?”

After hearing that, Zhao Yameng went silent for a while, but her expression remained icy as she spoke calmly after a few moments.

“You don’t need to go on like this, Senior. One must go through a process of conscience searching before entering the Heavenly Spirit Sect. The process can imitate the appearances of important people in one’s heart and make them go through an illusory reincarnation to check whether the disciple has other plans or faked their background. And I… have gone through and passed that process.

“So, there’s no way I’ll reveal anything on my own. And the fact that you could recognize me with one look, capture me, and bring me here to ask me all of this can only mean one thing. That is… you’ve indeed captured Wang Baole and gotten many memories from him against his will!

“Moreover, you’ve committed a mistake, Senior. You’ve underestimated me. Indeed, my cultivation is much lower than yours, but my Divine Will is different from that of ordinary people. I have an innate talent for telepathy. Whoever exists in my heart will have an aura I can sense on their bodies!”

“But you don’t have that on your body. So, if you don’t bring Wang Baole here, Senior, I can only conclude… that Wang Baole… has died!” Speaking to that point, Zhao Yameng’s body shivered uncontrollably.

Wang Baole helplessly gave a bitter laugh once against. At the same time, he was shocked by Zhao Yameng’s innate talent. He was very clear that he was only an avatar now. So, to a certain extent, it was correct to say that there were no aura markings on him. But his cultivation was extremely strong, far exceeding that of Zhao Yameng. If Zhao Yameng’s innate talent spell could still be effective, then her innate talent was extremely scary.

After pondering, Wang Baole raised his right hand and grabbed, holding the Divine Will he extracted from Zhao Yameng’s body in his hand and pressing it against his glabella. The Divine Will fused successfully, and there was no rejection at all.

“Do you believe me now?” After doing that, he looked at Zhao Yameng. But he didn’t expect that Zhao Yameng would actually shiver more intensely after seeing that. In fact, as she looked towards him, a sense of hatred and frenzy that could be imprinted on his soul appeared in her eyes. It was obvious that she misunderstood and thought that it meant that Wang Baole had completely died. She thought that his soul and everything else had been swallowed by this man and incorporated into his body.

“Don’t be agitated, Yameng!” Wang Baole experienced a huge shock. He didn’t know how to explain it. At the same time, according to Zhao Yameng’s reaction, he felt that it must have been really tough for her to survive in the Violet Gold civilization all those years. Once she was exposed, she would definitely die, and she might even burden the Federation. So, naturally, there was no one she could trust. Because of that, she developed the trait of extreme caution.

Even though he had already continuously proven his identity, she still chose to be cautious.

Although it might not be the best to not trust anyone easily and only trust one’s own judgment, it was the only way for one to ensure their own safety in a foreign environment.

This made Wang Baole feel even more heartbroken. But he understood that this meant that Zhao Yameng had truly matured. As a Federation cultivator, with her mother being the Martian Colony Governor and her father being the lead spirit researcher, she could continue cultivating in the Federation without any danger. Even if Project Dark Swallow needed her, she could have rejected them, and no one would have blamed her.

But in the end, due to some considerations, she chose to join on her own accord. This was a kind of responsibility, to give her all for the rise of the Federation. She was like this, and so was Wang Baole.

Vaguely, in Wang Baole’s eyes, the Zhao Yameng in front of him was vastly different from the Zhao Yameng in his memories. To a certain extent, she already displayed the charm of her mother, the Martian Colony Governor.

Wang Baole took a deep breath. After nodding towards Zhao Yameng, under her caution, he raised his right hand and waved it. Instantly, he took Zhao Yameng along as they disappeared from the secret chamber and left the satellite. In the next moment… they had already appeared within the cosmos. Not waiting for Zhao Yameng to ask him any questions, Wang Baole moved again and unleashed his cultivation, shooting towards the Divine Eye main star at his maximum speed!

Because there was no disruption of the seal and no army cultivators following him, Wang Baole unleashed his speed smoothly. Not long after, he brought Zhao Yameng and arrived at the Divine Eye main star. With a flick of his body, they arrived where his true body’s coffin was at. They dug underground and went to the side of the coffin within the cave!

After arriving there, Wang Baole didn’t speak. A weird glint flashed between his eyes as the Dark Art circulated within his body. Dark Fire spread as he raised his right hand and slapped it down violently onto the coffin.

After the slap, the coffin trembled, and it became translucent and obscure. This caused Zhao Yameng, who was standing at the side, to instantly see Wang Baole lying within the coffin in the next moment.

Her body shivered violently. As she looked over, Wang Baole’s true body slowly opened its eyes.

“Yameng, it’s really me. Due to some reasons, my true body can’t go out now. I can only make use of an avatar. That’s why you couldn’t sense the aura with your innate talent.”

“Baole!” As Zhao Yameng’s body trembled, she closed her eyes to sense the aura. Afterwards, tears fell from her eyes. They were tears of joy and excitement.

“Hey, hey, I’m over here.” Wang Baole’s avatar was a little depressed as it looked at the true body in the coffin and looked at Zhao Yameng, who only had eyes for his true body. Suddenly, he felt a little moonstruck.
