Chapter 290: Chapter 290: If Our Son Died, Would You Blame Me?

"But Master, the Tree Core alone is not enough to suppress the Demon Turtle. Just like how you couldn’t suppress the tree demon with me and this spear!" said the spear spirit. "The five elements may overcome each other, but they can also generate one another!"

The spear spirit still didn’t have high hopes for Lu Chen.

Lu Chen said, "I didn’t think of it back then. First, we were lacking wood elements in our formation, and my body is also filled with Wood Spirit Power. Secondly, the Tree Core may not be sufficient, but if we can turn it into a Magic Artifact, then it will be enough!"

"Thunderstrike Wood?"

The spear spirit was startled and remembered what the Xuanji Sect Master had said while trying to provoke the tree demon.

"Yes, Thunderstrike Wood! It’s just that I don’t know how to do it yet!"

Lu Chen nodded confidently, making the spear spirit express helplessly, "Master, I thought you were planning to deal with the Demon Turtle here!"

"You’re overthinking it," Lu Chen also smiled. "I only thought of this method just now and wanted to ask if it’s feasible. I’d better tell you now in case I forget later!"

The spear spirit said helplessly, "You scared me. I was worried that once you found the Tree Core, you’d rush off to confront the Demon Turtle! However, you’re right, Master; it’s always good to be prepared. Your method is feasible, but we still need to contemplate the details carefully and not act recklessly."

"I’m well aware," Lu Chen narrowed his eyes and said, "If your guess is correct, and that Demon Turtle truly arose because of Sword Cultivators, we may be facing a situation where it won’t stop until it’s dead. Although I will eventually leave Tianyuan, Qin Yaotiao’s whereabouts remain unknown, and I must find her!"

"Qin Yaotiao?"

The spear spirit was taken aback, also recalling who Qin Yaotiao was. However, it didn’t know much about her and remained silent.

Together, one man and one spear continued on their way, with Lu Chen refining the ideas in his mind.

He had more to say, namely that his parents must be in Tianyuan as well, but for now, their whereabouts were elusive!

While they were searching for the tree demon and the Purifying Jade Bottle, the situation for Li Qingyao and Lu Tianren had calmed down.

"Didn’t you bring your son back?"

It took a while before Lu Tianren regained some color in his face, and then he asked Li Qingyao.

"I didn’t bring him back."

Li Qingyao’s complexion wasn’t good either, and her chest heaved with some disordered breathing.

The mystical beasts that had come to devour Lu Tianren’s vital energy were easy to handle, but the toxins they left behind were not so easy to deal with.

She too had expended a great deal of energy and Spiritual Power to save Lu Tianren.

Still, it meant that Lu Tianren would have to wait even longer to break free from the shackles that bound him here.

"Did you see him?"

At this moment, Lu Tianren’s heart was filled solely with thoughts of Lu Chen.

"I saw him," Li Qingyao’s eyes filled with the reflection of memories and she said, "That brat has become much smoother. He saw me fighting with that woman and took off running."

"He ran? Then did you kill that Core Formation Stage one?"

Hearing Lu Tianren continuously worried about Lu Chen without asking a single question about herself, Li Qingyao snorted coldly and cursed, "Lu Tianren, don’t you even think to ask if I was hurt?"

Lu Tianren retorted, "Injured or not, you’re right in front of me. What’s there to ask?"

Li Qingyao was left speechless!

What Lu Tianren said made sense, but it just didn’t sit right with her!

"Just keep thinking about your precious son!"

She sat down huffily, arms crossed over her chest, with her back to Lu Tianren, resembling a sulking young girl.

Lu Tianren himself couldn’t understand, was it wrong to care about his son?

Isn’t that your son too!

And I can’t even see him.

"Hey, Lu Tianren, what do you think... If your son dies, would you blame me?"

Suddenly, Li Qingyao stood up and turned around to look straight at Lu Tianren.

Lu Tianren’s expression tightened, "What do you mean?"

"I failed to save Lu Chen, and it seems... that the Giant Profound Demon Turtle... has awoken!"
