Chapter 2038: Chapter 2035: The Demon King’s Plan

The Tower Spirit smiled slightly, "But other than that, do you have any other way?"

The Witch fell silent, and after a while said, "How long does Ling Feng have left?"

"At all costs, I can only sustain him for a year!" the Tower Spirit said.

The Witch exclaimed, "A year? How can it be only a year? Why is it so short?"

"Ling Feng’s power has advanced too quickly, his foundation is unstable, combined with the power of the curse, this is what led to his life limit being much shorter than that of an ordinary Half-step Immortal!" the Tower Spirit said, "So, achieving the Immortal Realm is his only hope!"

"Damn it!" the Witch said fiercely, "I didn’t expect it to be like this. Now, all our plans have become ineffective!"

...

When Ling Feng woke up from his drunken state with his head held, he saw the Witch beside him with a troubled expression and couldn’t help but ask in puzzlement, "Aunt, why are you here? Ugh... it’s been a long time since I got drunk, why is this wine so strong?"

The Witch stared at Ling Feng, "Are you cursed?"

Ling Feng was surprised, "Aunt, how did you know?"

The Witch sighed and said, "Why didn’t you tell us sooner?"

Ling Feng smiled slightly, "It’s not that big of a deal, and I have a way to deal with it, so..."

"So you plan to resolve it on your own? Planning to embark on the Path of Immortality?" the Witch asked.

Ling Feng nodded, "That’s right, besides, I always wanted to try the Path of Immortality, and it’s a good opportunity to take it!"

"You..." The Witch wanted to fiercely reprimand Ling Feng, but she finally realized mournfully that she had nothing she could say because the only road ahead of them was the Path of Immortality!

"Aunt, don’t worry about me. I’m still very confident!" Ling Feng smiled and said, "I’m going to meet my father-in-law now, so..."

"No need!" The Witch said blandly at this time, "You don’t need to meet my Brother King."

"Why?" Ling Feng was perplexed.

"Because..." The Witch took a deep breath and said, "Because he’s no longer in the Abyss Realm!"

Ling Feng paused; Lord Demon King was no longer in the Abyss Realm, what was going on? He clearly said he wanted me to find him, did something happen within these three days?

"Ling Feng, there’s something I want to tell you!" The Witch’s expression was complex, but her tone was calm.

Ling Feng looked at the Witch with some confusion.

"Do you know? My Brother King, your father-in-law, has essentially reached his limits!" The Witch sighed and said, "Although an Immortal Realm expert is practically undying and immortal, they are also closely connected to the Plane Worlds."

Ling Feng’s pupils shrank, and he in surprise shouted, "What? Father-in-law he... what’s going on here?"

"It’s simple, the Abyss Realm has already gone from prosperity to decline!" The Witch said solemnly, "For tens of thousands of years, it has been my Brother King tirelessly supporting it, but now, my Brother King’s power is almost exhausted, unable to continue sustaining the Abyss Realm’s power."

"Then what about the Abyss Realm?" Ling Feng couldn’t help but ask. 𝒇𝒓𝙚𝒆𝔀𝓮𝓫𝒏𝓸𝙫𝓮𝓵.𝓬𝙤𝙢

The Witch smiled slightly, "Ling Feng, have you forgotten, the Abyss Realm does not have only one Immortal Realm expert!"

Ling Feng looked at the Witch with surprise, he also understood, the Demon King had exhausted the last drop of blood for the Abyss Realm, the remaining task must be handed over to the Witch.

Although his interaction with the Demon King wasn’t much, Ling Feng felt admiration towards him, because he was someone who would choose to sacrifice for his own race and world, even if he might be somewhat callous to other races, but he had done no wrong.

"Then what about my father-in-law? Why did he leave the Abyss Realm?" Ling Feng’s heart felt an ominous premonition.

"He left to resolve your matter!" The Witch looked at Ling Feng and said, "I told my Brother King about the Mad Doctor, and Brother King is also very clear, with your current strength, it’s impossible for you to be a match for the Mad Doctor, if you really want to duel to the death with him, the only one who will die is you!"

"So he entrusted the Abyss Realm to me, then left the Abyss Realm to seek out the Mad Doctor!" The Witch exhaled and said, "The only one who can threaten the Mad Doctor is an Immortal Realm expert, so Brother King wanted to help you resolve this danger with the last bit of strength he has left!"

"What?" Ling Feng was completely shocked, he never imagined, at the last moment, the Demon King would make such a decision, which caught Ling Feng by surprise, and made it a bit difficult for him to accept!

The Witch said solemnly, "Ling Feng, you should know, Brother King has high expectations for you, the burden on your shoulders is heavy, Brother King even wants to entrust the Abyss Realm to you, so he wants to give you more time to grow."

Ling Feng fell silent, he didn’t know what to say about the Demon King’s actions, but his heart felt a surge of warmth.

"We actually planned it all out, I would take over the position of Demon King, and then detain you in the Royal Palace, wait until Brother King finishes with the Mad Doctor, then release you. At that time, whether it’s Earth or the Dragon Clan, they can join the Abyss Realm in a strategic allies, so you wouldn’t have to worry too much about Earth’s matters."

"Thank you!" After a long time, Ling Feng said softly, "I didn’t know you all did so much for me!"

The Witch smiled slightly, "This is for you, it’s also for ourselves, but we didn’t expect your body now has the Curse of Aging... I’m sorry, I currently have no way to remove it."

Ling Feng laughed freely, "It’s alright, I don’t mind this!"

Suddenly, Ling Feng felt that what the Witch and Demon King had done for him, he might really never be able to fully repay. It was the Witch who initially activated the residual Abyss bloodline in his body, causing his strength to surge, enabling him to accomplish things on Earth.

And now, at the end of his time, the Demon King actually wanted to solve the Mad Doctor for me, Ling Feng didn’t need to think much to know the danger of this matter, it was even possible the Demon King might directly perish.

"Aunt, for all you’ve done for me, I am already very grateful!" Ling Feng said with a smile, "Life is unpredictable, no one can foresee what might happen in the future, entering the Path of Immortality doesn’t necessarily lead to a dead end, even if there is one in ten thousand chance, I won’t give up!"

"But... if I really can’t make it out, then please, Aunt, help take care of Earth!" Ling Feng said solemnly, "I have arranged things in the Angel World, the Angel World and the Dragon Clan will cooperate with the Abyss Realm at that time."

"Finally, if I really die, I hope Aunt can find Yunxuan, and apologize to her on my behalf, if possible, don’t tell my Beloved the truth of things!"
