Chapter 250: Chapter 248: Love Hurts the Heart (Third Update)

On Canglong Star, the Canglong Continent, with the groundwork laid by Minister of Science and Technology Mu Chen, the Tian Network had long been established. Although the network didn’t yet cover the entire planet, it was no less advanced than that of Huaxia on Canglong Continent alone.

Tian Lang and Blood Slaughter tried to connect via interstellar phone, but no one answered.

Tian Lang said in disappointment, "The phone keeps going unanswered. It looks like my father is in secluded cultivation."

"Sigh..."

Blood Slaughter also sighed, "My father hasn’t been answering either. It seems he has fallen into deep sleep..."

Yan Rufeng opened Wen Tong’s chat interface and clicked on the video link.

"Ding long dong ding..."

In the Pangu Universe, on Earth in Huaxia Country, in a villa in the suburb of Kyoto, Wen Tong was reporting to her father, Wen JiaRen, about someone using Yan Rufeng’s WeChat account to video call her.

"Ding long dong ding..."

The sudden video call ringtone made Wen Tong jump.

Wen Tong hurriedly took out her phone, glanced at the screen, and exclaimed excitedly, "Dad, it’s Rufeng, he, he..."

Wen JiaRen turned serious and asked, "What’s wrong with Rufeng?"

"Dad, someone is using Rufeng’s account to video call me again!"

Perplexed about who could be using Yan Rufeng’s WeChat account to video call Wen Tong, Wen JiaRen saw that the video request had come again. He took the phone from Wen Tong and accepted the video call from Yan Rufeng.

In the Carefree Universe, on Canglong Star’s Canglong Continent, in Huaguo’s Congressional Banquet Hall, Yan Rufeng held the phone and saw Wen JiaRen on the screen, standing to attention and saluting, "Commander Wen, how come it’s you?"

"Heh heh!"

Wen JiaRen’s laughter came through the phone.

"What, are you disappointed to see me?"

Yan Rufeng said, "Commander Wen, that’s not what I meant."

"Hey!"

Wen JiaRen laughed, "Comrade Rufeng, this is no time for small talk. I want to know, are you in Huaxia?"

"No!"

"Then tell me, where are you?"

After Yan Rufeng explained everything he had done on Canglong Star to Wen JiaRen, Wen JiaRen on the screen lowered his head in deep thought. After a long while, he said, "Comrade Rufeng, based on what you’re saying, Canglong Star is also in great danger."

Yan Rufeng replied, "Commander Wen, although Canglong Star faces danger, it has already entered the realm of technological cultivation. The crisis will soon be resolved."

Wen JiaRen laughed, "That’s wonderful news."

Yan Rufeng asked, "Commander Wen, since we can now establish contact with Huaxia, do you have any instructions?"

Wen JiaRen said, "Rufeng, this matter has come quite suddenly. Let me discuss it with the higher-ups, and I will get back to you."

Yan Rufeng replied, "I await your orders."

"Heh heh!"

Wen JiaRen laughed, "Rufeng, you are now the King of Huaguo on Canglong Star. There’s no need to address yourself as ’subordinate’ before me anymore."

Yan Rufeng solemnly said, "Commander Wen, you are my old superior. Even if I become a God, I am still your subordinate."

"Ha ha..."

Wen JiaRen laughed, "Good for you, Yan Rufeng. Old Lu Mingliang didn’t misjudge you after all."

Yan Rufeng asked, "Commander Wen, where is Marshal Lu?"

"He is currently in secluded cultivation, competing in realms with Zhao Wuji."

"Hey!"

Yan Rufeng chuckled, "It seems Marshal Lu and Marshal Zhao can’t stand being idle!"

"Ha ha..."

Wen JiaRen laughed heartily, "Exactly. They have nothing to do all day except compete with one another. If I tell them we’ve established contact with you, they’ll be overjoyed..."

Listening to Yan Rufeng and Wen JiaRen chatting, Yi Mu murmured, "I wonder who Brother Rufeng is talking to, not considering my feelings at all. Who is that ’Wen Family’s daughter is growing up’ he’s talking about?"

"Heh heh!"

Wen JiaRen heard Yi Mu’s voice through the video call and laughed, "Rufeng, who is talking?"

Yan Rufeng’s face turned pale as he stammered, "Commander Wen, she is Mumu!"

"Oh!"

Wen JiaRen said, "She called you ’brother,’ so I assume she is your sister on Canglong Star."

Just as Yan Rufeng was about to answer, Yi Mu grabbed the phone from his hand and said sweetly to the screen, "I’m not Brother Rufeng’s sister."

Wen JiaRen saw Yi Mu on the screen and laughed, "Little girl, then tell me, what’s your relationship with Comrade Rufeng?"

Yi Mu proudly said, "I am Brother Rufeng’s fiancée!"

Wen JiaRen fell silent.

Wen Tong, who was listening to Yi Mu’s words, stood beside Wen JiaRen. Her expression changed instantly, despair flashed in her eyes, and she thought, "No, it can’t be. I must have misheard. How could Rufeng possibly..."

Tears uncontrollably streamed down Wen Tong’s face.

Seeing this, Wen JiaRen hastily said to Yi Mu, "Mumu, give the phone back to Rufeng. I have something important to discuss with him."

Yan Rufeng took the phone from Yi Mu’s hand and continued chatting with Wen JiaRen about the current situation on Earth.

During this time, Yan Rufeng could clearly see Wen Tong occasionally appearing on the screen, weeping like a pear blossom in the rain. Despite this, he did not say a word to comfort her.

Yan Rufeng knew that, at this moment, no matter how much Wen Tong cried, he could not utter a single word of consolation. It was not because Yan Rufeng was heartless, but because he had no feelings for Wen Tong. He had made everything clear to her long ago...

After Wen JiaRen hung up the video call, Wen Tong could no longer control herself and burst into tears.

Wen JiaRen consoled, "My dear, you heard it just now. That girl said she is Rufeng’s fiancée, and Rufeng did not deny it. You must give up on him."

"Boo hoo..."

Wen Tong cried, "Dad, this isn’t true. Rufeng couldn’t possibly choose a fifteen or sixteen-year-old girl as his fiancée. I don’t believe it..."

"Sigh..."

Wen JiaRen sighed, "Tong’er, you must understand that it’s a different world, a cultivation world where power is respected. Nothing is impossible. That girl said she is Rufeng’s fiancée, and when she grows up, she will marry Rufeng. You shouldn’t hold any more fantasies about him..."

Wen JiaRen said no more to Wen Tong, turned around, and flew swiftly toward the Capital City Congress to report to the higher-ups about establishing contact with Yan Rufeng.

Yan Rufeng hung up the video call and stood silently, with Yi Mu glaring at him.

"Where is that ’Wen Family’s daughter is growing up’ you mentioned?"

Yan Rufeng raised his voice and said, "Mumu, can you stop asking?"

Yi Mu said, feeling wronged, "You’re scolding me! You’re actually scolding me because of that woman..."

The banquet hall fell silent.

Qingyue broke the silence, "Brother Rufeng, your sister and I, along with Third Brother and Fourth Brother, are going to find Niuniu and Xue Ying. You and Mumu can talk alone!"

After Qingyue, Blood Slaughter, and Tian Lang left, Yan Rufeng said, "Mumu, I need some quiet. Please go back."
