Chapter 998: Chapter 1018: I Don’t Want My Body to Be Occupied by an Old Granny_1

"I understand, but there’s nothing I can do, I can’t sense their location."

Lin Chen nodded: "Alright, after your arm was exposed, I think the entire Barren Wilderness will search for your other body parts. I just have to pay attention, and I believe there will be news soon."

Xuan Ji: "I have waited for tens of thousands of years, a little more time is not a problem."

"Alright!"

Lin Chen agreed and asked curiously: "If you were to be resurrected, what would you do? Go back to the Immortal Realm to seek revenge on the person who harmed you?"

Xuan Ji: "That is inevitable, but so much time has passed, I fear she has gained a lot of power already, avenging may not be that easy."

Lin Chen comforted: "You are so powerful, there will always be a way. If I have the ability and opportunity in the future, I’ll help you..."

Lin Chen stopped here and laughed at himself.

"This may be presumptuous of me, but the gap between your realm and mine is too big. If it’s an enemy beyond your reach, how could I possibly intervene? I guess they could blow me away with just a breath."

Xuan Ji: "No one is born an expert, even an Immortal Emperor has to grow step by step from an ordinary person; add oil (keep fighting)!"

Xuan Ji: "Thank you!"

Xuan Ji put down the pen and flew back to Lin Chen’s shoulder, ending the conversation.

Lin Chen picked up the note Xuan Ji had written, took a look, folded it, and put it away.

After taking an elixir, Lin Chen began to heal his injuries.

Half a day later, Lin Chen suddenly opened his eyes and glanced at Nalan Wushuang not far away.

She was awake.

Na Nan Wushuang opened her eyes, looked at Lin Chen with complex emotions.

"You actually managed to escape with me."

Lin Chen bitterly smiled: "It was close, I can only say we were fortunate."

Nalan Wushuang looked around: "Where’s the Demon Ancestor?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "I don’t know, her physical body was destroyed, her Primordial Spirit severely injured, she fled far away, I don’t know what happened afterwards."

Na Nan Wushuang blinked: "I remember you taking me into the Eternal Cemetery..."

Lin Chen nodded: "Yes, we almost died in there."

Na Nan Wushuang asked: "What’s inside?"

Lin Chen replied: "The corpses of ancient creatures continue to exist in there in a special way, shrouded in thick fog, attacking any living beings that enter."

Nalan Wushuang fell silent for two seconds, and whispered: "You saved my life again."

Lin Chen said with a laugh: "The first time I didn’t deliberately save you. It was just for my own sake. This time, I wasn’t saving you, but countless innocent members of the Human Clan. So... you don’t need to thank me."

Once the Demon Ancestor took over Nalan Wushuang’s body and became the new Demon Ancestor, with her status, she would be able to obtain all the resources she wanted. In a short time, she could regain her strongest state, and perhaps even surpass her current self and become stronger due to her Innate Dao Body.

By that time, it would be the Human Clan who would suffer.

Even calling it mass suffering would be an understatement. There’s a high probability that the entire Human Clan would be trampled under her feet, becoming slaves to the demon race, or even just blood food.

Humans can kill and eat demons, and demons can kill and eat humans as well.

Na Nan Wushuang sighed with a bitter smile: "We thought we could awaken a rejuvenated Demon Ancestor, who would have thought it was such a big scam..."

"Rejuvenation?"

Lin Chen said with a smile: "Maybe some of the demons you were searching for were not even the Demon Ancestor. More demons just want to learn about the Reverse Life and Death Array from her, so they could seal themselves when they are about to die and rejuvenate."

Nalan Wushuang nodded: "Yes, who would have known it was a scam. She was actually trying to take my body."

Lin Chen asked curiously: "Aren’t you the Holy Maiden of the demon race, and everything you do is for the rise of the demon race? Why do you reject the Demon Ancestor’s possession?"

"Even though you are talented, you can never be as powerful as the Demon Ancestor, right? She became so powerful even without an Innate Dao Body, wouldn’t she become even stronger if she had one?"

"Sacrifice yourself for the happiness of the entire demon race, why wouldn’t you want to?"

Nalan Wushuang’s eyes flickered, and for a moment she didn’t know how to answer Lin Chen’s questions.

Yes, only she will die. Just giving her body to the Demon Ancestor, the demon race will have an invincible and powerful Demon Ancestor, who could stop them?

Why did she refuse?

Is she afraid of death?

Nalan Wushuang fell into deep contemplation, and after a while, she looked straight at Lin Chen.

"I’m not afraid of death, but I don’t want my body to be occupied by an old woman. Especially with her touching my face and her gaze, it makes me feel disgusted!"

Lin Chen just casually asked. To him, not wanting it is normal, right?

Self-sacrifice like that is indeed noble, but he is not that kind of person!

Lin Chen chuckled: "It does give me goosebumps. By the way, this is even more unacceptable than when the True Dragon’s Soul wanted to occupy our bodies."

Nalan Wushuang nodded: "Do you think I’m just making excuses?"

Lin Chen shook his head: "No, because I wouldn’t want it either."
