Chapter 522: Chapter 172: Tomb Guardian, Joining the Divine Spirit, Born as Saint King, A Once-in-a-Lifetime Sunset

After all... during his communication with the Wolf Mother, Li Yuan roughly figured out the "arrival time of the new world," which was at least a thousand years away.

So a thousand years before that, this place was still safe.

The reason the Wolf Mother could give him such an answer was probably also under the directive of the Divine Spirit.

Because the Divine Spirit wanted Li Yuan to know that relying on his own abilities, he could not survive until then, only by lying in a coffin and becoming one of them could he achieve it.

The relationship between Li Yuan and the Wolf Mother suddenly became intimate.

Of course, this was only what the Wolf Mother thought. 𝐟𝕣𝕖𝐞𝐰𝕖𝚋𝐧𝗼𝚟𝐞𝕝.𝗰𝐨𝐦

...

...

One day...

When Li Yuan lay again with Zhenyan Xue, after the intense "battle" like a sudden storm, the two calmed down.

Zhenyan Xue’s fair body lazily trembled with a certain fatigued tide.

She turned to embrace the Barbarian King and said, "Our child..."

Li Yuan said, "Xiao Xue, if we have a child, that child would become a powerful existence like the Saint King, but... he would die before you."

The silly girl widened her eyes and asked, "Why?"

Li Yuan softly explained some necessary knowledge to her, inwardly sighing: with gains, there are losses; he could have powerful offspring, but he would have to endure the pain of his offspring’s early death.

After he finished speaking, Zhenyan Xue fell into a long silence.

Her hands still hugged Li Yuan’s strong waist, her long legs half-crossed over his, but her body was somewhat stiff, then her breathing quickened, followed by a long silence, before she leaned next to Li Yuan’s ear and said, "Give it to me."

Li Yuan looked at the Jade Person in his arms.

Zhenyan Xue said, "People of the Nine Flames should burn brightly like the scorching sun, even if only briefly glorious, as long as it has illuminated this world, it is enough.

I would be proud of such a child, and if the child knows, he would be proud too.

Every minute and every second of our lives, we live in honor.

Even if embracing the Taiyang means being shattered, it is with full pride!

He will take up the Barbarian King’s Axe belonging to his father and become the new Son of the Taiyang, and you... can also do your own things with peace of mind."

Seemingly foresaw a certain destiny and already understood the price and glory of that destiny, Zhenyan Xue suddenly gained a touch of maturity, and her "silly girl" face began to become solemn, her previously naive eyes starting to focus.

She was lost in watching the firelight resembling red fishes floating and flickering on the top of the tent, her eyes somewhat deep.

Li Yuan had heard something before he crossed over, that the First Realm of great achievement is like "The west wind withered the green trees last night, I climb the high building alone, looking out at the end of the world", to see thoroughly, vision must be focused, must be serious.

Seeing the distance, seeing destiny, only then can one be profound.

He took the Secret Medicine that had been secretly transported out and safety tested by Mrs. Tang and Yan Yu, then pulled the tall, snow-white beautiful woman beside him, flipping her over on top.

...

Riding the clouds and driving the mists all night long.

Ultimately settled.

Outside the camp, mounds of ice and snow from the Exotic Realm were heaped and heaped again, forming small ice hills on the endless Frozen Soil, then blown into a vast ice dust storm by a sudden strong wind.

Outside the tent, came the sounds of the Ice and Snow Giant Wolves pulling carts, wheel hubs turning, and ice layers being crushed, along with the noisy sound of the Barbarians shouting while loading and unloading goods.

These were supplies purchased from outside and the Demon Beast Meat hunted by the Barbarians going to the mountains outside.

The goods were bought by the Tang Sect, supporting them after all.

And the Barbarians hunting Demon Beasts made this Border Wilderness area into an extremely safe region without realizing it.

At this moment,

Zhenyan Xue was already awake.

Contentedly she lay in Li Yuan’s arms, touching her belly with anticipation, her expression gentle yet hiding the fierce protectiveness of a lioness.

She knew, this time, she would surely have a child.

This realization instantly turned her mindset into that of a mother.

Li Yuan looked at the beautiful woman in his arms, watched her turn from a girl into a woman, then into a mother, watched her transform from Han Han’Er to her current form.

He gently stroked her hair, tenderly accompanying her for a long time.

...

Afterwards, Li Yuan got up, found the Wolf Mother, told her his decision, and then subtly warned the Wolf Mother about one thing: "I care deeply about my wife and child, if anything happens to them, I might really lose my mind."

The Wolf Mother said, "In this world, there are always accidents."

Li Yuan did not retreat, saying pointedly, "With you here, there will be no accidents."

The Wolf Mother hesitated for a moment and then said, "Promise me one thing."

"What thing?"

"It’s nothing major; if you promise me, I will definitely not let anything happen to Zhenyan Xue and her child."

Seeing Li Yuan’s silence, the Wolf Mother raised her head slightly and directly said, "Take me to see the sunset."

Li Yuan: ?????

This abrupt request truly surprised him.

He had already forgotten the casual words he had said to tease the Wolf Mother at that time.

But obviously, this sentence had rolled over several times in the Wolf Mother’s mind, which then turned into the words he could hear now.

No...

It wasn’t the Wolf Mother.

It was the girl chosen to become this generation’s Wolf Mother.

She wanted to see the sunset.

Li Yuan said, "If I’m not mistaken, you cannot leave the Frozen Soil, right?"

The Wolf Mother lowered her head, her expression complicated and said, "You should tie me up, no matter how I struggle, no matter what I say, don’t listen. Take me to the mountain outside to see the sunset once, I will truly promise you then."

Li Yuan said, "But you don’t have the final say, do you... understand what I mean?"

The Wolf Mother said, "She is also me, she won’t refuse this little bit of selfishness of mine, and... I have not been disrespectful to the Divine Spirit.
