Chapter 701: A Huge Mistake

power of thunder double, which is why it was able to bind the Golden Armored Demon Ape!"Luo Baichuan's voice was loud, clearly not just to answer the crowd, but also to remind Luo Lingxiao.However, w...Hailing's words might have sounded incomprehensible to others, but Ginger Cloud immediately understood upon hearing them, her eyes gleaming with insight.

The four strongest beings in the Shan Hai Realm, excluding the Lord of the Ghost Prison, are all demon clan.

And Fang Mang and Hai Changsheng, these two great demons, happened to be one from the mountains and one from the sea!

The three monsters were all vying for the ownership of the Shan Hai Realm, each wanting to become the demon king of the Shan Hai Realm.

But after separately contacting Jiangyun and the three demons, it's not hard to judge that Tian Dao is the strongest, followed by Hai Changsheng, with Fang Mang bringing up the rear.

Now Hai Changsheng says he wants to bring together the mountains and seas. Although Jiang Yun doesn't know exactly how he plans to do it, his meaning seems to be that he wants to cooperate with Fang Mang, even perhaps help Fang Mang achieve his goals.

As expected, Haichangsheng continued, “Since you’ve made up your mind, I might as well fulfill your wish and grant the Ten Thousand Mang Mountains their freedom. It’ll also be a small atonement for me towards this world of mountains and seas.”

The relationship between Fang Mang and Jiang Yun doesn't need much explanation, so if Hai Changsheng wants to help Fang Mang, it would indeed be a great favor to Jiang Yun.

Mountains and seas apart, they cannot withstand the laws of heaven. But mountains and seas united, though still unable to resist, at least stand as equals!

With these thoughts running through his mind, Gingercloud did not immediately respond but instead asked, "Why"

"It's your turn to make a promise!"

"What a promise!"

Hǎichángshēng's gaze turned to Hǎiyìxuě who was unconscious, and he said: "Take care of my two daughters for me!"

A gleam suddenly flashed in Jiang Yun's eyes.

No wonder Hai Changsheng had to knock Ha Yi Xue unconscious, because his words carried different meanings of entrusting her with something.

Hai Changsheng continued, "From the day I was born with sentience, I have been pursuing power, strength, and the unseen, intangible Dao."

"Until I met her, met this woman, that's when I truly understood the meaning of life!"

Hai Changsheng's gaze returned to the beautiful woman in the coffin, a trace of regret on his face.

But even so, I still persisted in my pursuit of power and the way, which ultimately led to me losing her.

"In order to bring her back to life, my pursuit of power became more and more insane. It left me no time to spend with my daughter, making her unwilling even to call me father when I was right beside her!"

"Now, I finally understand, I was wrong, and terribly so!"

Actually, they are the most important people in my life, the very path I pursue!

"If time could rewind, if I could have one more chance, I would give up everything I have, even become an ordinary person, just to be by their side."

Hearing Hai Changsheng's words and seeing the remorse on his face, Jiang Yun couldn't help but close her eyes.

Although Hai Changsheng did not directly answer his own question, it was clear to anyone who looked —

He Changsheng, has already conceived the idea of death!

Ginger opened her eyes and said, "Although there aren't that many ifs, at least, you can still continue to be with your daughter!"

Hai Changsheng smiled faintly. "Do you know why, even though I can't match Yue Qing in strength, I still insisted on not letting you go to that Dao Prison with him just now"

Before Gingercloud could reply, Haichangsheng continued, "Because my time is short, I'm prepared to die with him!"

Jiang Yun's divine sense suddenly swept over Hai Changsheng, but Hai Changsheng waved his hand and said, "There's no need to look, my injuries aren't that serious."

"That…" Jiang Yun uttered a single word, but then abruptly stopped speaking. He understood.

Although Yue Qing's attack did severely injure Hai Changsheng, it only destroyed the barrier that covered Wushan Island and did not harm Hai Changsheng's core.

Losing half of his cultivation, although it wouldn't affect Hai Changsheng's life directly, would lead to his true death in the near future.

Heaven will be the one to kill him!

Although the three great demons were the strongest under Heaven's Mandate, it wasn't easy for Heaven's Mandate to eradicate Fang Mang and Hai Changsheng.

Therefore, the three powerful demons, plus the Jailer of Ghost Hell, formed a four-legged tripod, and none dared to easily attack another.

Fang Mang also once said that the reason why Heaven did not stop Hai Changsheng from launching the ShanHai Great Tribulation was because it wanted to watch the tigers fight.

Now, the Ghost Prison's Lord is missing, Fang Mang has fallen into slumber, and Hai Changsheng has lost half of his cultivation. This presents a huge opportunity for Heaven's Dao.

First, eliminate the gravely wounded Hai Changsheng, then kill Fang Mang who is sleeping. Then, the entire Shanhai Realm will be under his sole dominion!

Therefore, given Hai Changsheng's personality, it would be better for him to sacrifice himself and complete Fang Mang than to let Heaven kill him.

However, he couldn't rest easy knowing his daughter was in danger, so he hoped to use this as a condition to exchange Jiang Yun's protection for Hai Yuxue.

Jiang Yun pondered for a moment and said, "Is there no way to heal your injuries"

“Give me ten years, and I can recover to my peak state.” Hai Changsheng still had a slight smile on his face.

Jiang Yun remained silent. The heavens would never grant Hai Changsheng ten years to live, and with Hai Changsheng's cultivation level, the only way to heal him would be for someone as powerful as Yue Qing or Dao Lian'er.

As for Yue Qing, we needn't even consider it. Jiang Yun said, "I'll go ask Dao Lian'er senior. Perhaps she has a way."

"No way!" Hailing Sheng shook his head. "I won't be your enemy, and besides, I'm tired too. It's time to let go of everything and spend some quality time with her."

Indeed, if Hai Changsheng insisted on becoming the mountain sea demon and continued to insist on saving his wife, he would inevitably have to kill Jiang Yun.

Kei Jiangyun was the chosen partner of his daughter's eye, how could he possibly kill Kei Jiangyun and leave his daughter with regret!

Although Ginger Cloud finally understood Hai Changsheng's purpose, he still shook his head and said: "I can hardly take care of myself, how could I possibly look after your daughter!"

"I believe in you, you won't be trapped in that prison of hell. One day, you will come out and return to this world of mountains and seas. Before that, I will send Yuxue to Fang Mang."

Hearing Hai Changsheng's confident tone, Jiang Yun couldn't help but smile wryly. "Why are you so confident in me"

"No more of that, just tell me, do you agree or not"

Looking at the endless sea, Jiang Yun fell silent.

At this moment, Jiang Yun's heart truly doesn't know how to judge Hai Changsheng's actions, nor does he know whether he should thank him or hate him!

This guardian spirit of the sea, though he has killed tens of millions of beings, everything he did was only to save the person he cared about most.

Perhaps one cannot accept this approach, but if one day they encounter the same situation, will they also act like Hai Changsheng

Regarding this question, Ginger Cloud didn't know the answer, and he didn't want to know it.

Finally, Jiang Yun said word by word: "I promise you, as long as I don't die, as long as I can still live and return to the Shan Hai realm, I will do my best to take care of Hai Yi Xue. And, I will also find Xue Qing!"

Ginger Yun's words brought a look of relief to Hai Changsheng's face. He nodded lightly and said, "Ginger Yun, actually, you are a good child. Qing'er's judgment is not wrong. If these things hadn't happened... perhaps one day, we would become..."

Although Haichang Sheng's words were vague, Ginger Cloud couldn't help but think of the hallucination she had just experienced and the sedan curtain she had lifted in the hallucination.

“Okay, child, don't worry. I will keep my promise after you leave. I won't see you off. I hope you return home safely soon!”

Between Haichangsheng's sweeping sleeves, Jiangyun's body suddenly lightened and drifted back into the Wendaomen sect.

Yue Qing, who had been impatiently waiting for a long time, saw Jiang Yun's appearance and coldly said: "Can we leave now"

First published on the Chinese Novel Networkme, a venerable voice suddenly entered her ears: "Sect Master, I can help you kill him, but after the deed is done, I need ten disciples of at least the Heaven's Hole Realm to enter the Refining Heave...
