Chapter 1327: Chapter 1320: Ways to Get Close

How could Liseya ever allow anyone to harm her offspring, especially when her own life hinge was on Ziang, she naturally became even more vigilant.

With her spirit of protecting her family, Ziang found it hard to understand how his unlucky father managed to deceive her.

As Liseya dominated the battlefield, the generals began to think of retreating. Because Liseya was simply too terrifying and too powerful. Her attacks were swift and unexpected, and her battle tactics changed rapidly. Once she encountered a troublesome enemy, she could immediately think of new ways to respond, making her almost invincible.

Moreover, most importantly, as mentioned before, although demigods can’t be compared to true gods, they are absolutely superior to mortals; just the unlimited use of magic alone already crushed most mages and cultivators.

After all, mortals, when using magic, always need to take care of their own capacity, but demigods are different; they can use magic without any restrictions.

And because they are spiritual beings, these demigods are almost impervious to conventional physical attacks; the only way is to find their life hinge to kill them completely.

With two such demigods, the Advance Team had the confidence to go out and explore.

After more than two minutes of fighting, the battle situation had become one-sided, with generals either fleeing or dying. Those who escaped were in a sorry state, and those who died were a sight too ghastly to endure.

And Liseya was extremely fast, hardly anyone could escape. They either self-ignited or had their inner core crushed by Liseya, and then endured repeated attacks from her until death.

"Oh my god, this is too terrifying..." Ziang gazed upon the gruesome scene before him, and couldn’t help but feel frightened, truly exclaiming in horror.

"Your ancestor is really a ruthless killer..." At that moment, Fula’s voice echoed in his mind.

"Oh, you didn’t leave, that’s good." Ziang felt a sense of relief hearing Fula’s voice.

"What, are you scared?" Fula asked puzzledly.

"A bit, my legs are still twitching..." Ziang said, taking a breath of cold air.

"She won’t attack you, what are you afraid of?" Fula said.

"I’m frightened by what happened a few years ago." Ziang explained.

"Indeed, back then, we were almost completely wiped out; resistance seemed futile. Now that you mention it, I’m starting to feel scared too." Fula said somewhat with a sigh.

"Right," Ziang swallowed, then continued, "And besides, in the coming days, I still have to accompany her. I’m afraid she will take matters into her own hands again one day, plunging the world into chaos."

"I feel like she’s quite willing to listen to you. If you say so, I actually feel indignant for her. She hasn’t done anything bad against your wishes but has been quietly residing in the pendant; yet now you question her because of her power, remember, she is your ancestor." Fula said.

"It’s precisely because I can control such great power that I feel uneasy," Ziang said worriedly, "Liseya is so willing to listen to me. If one day I decide to kill, asking her to eliminate people who make me uncomfortable, she would undoubtedly obey, and then the world would really be in chaos."

"Hey," Fula replied urgently, "then you must maintain your original intentions. You always like to compare yourself to Luo’er. Luo’er can remain neither humble nor arrogant. If you can’t do that, how can you compare yourself to him?"

"Let’s take it slowly..." Ziang took a deep breath and said.

Actually, reminded by Fula, Ziang really admired Luo’er. It’s worth noting that Fula is a demigod, and since she joined the Advance Team, Luo’er has not only prevented her from harming anyone but also strictly prohibited her from doing so, assigning her only to assist.

Even when the Advance Team faced their most perilous moments, Fula always played a supporting role. She once hoped Luo’er would lift his ban, but even in adversity, Luo’er refused without hesitation.

Reflecting on it, Ziang felt that he still had a long way to go compared to Luo’er. Luo’er’s ability to become the core of the Advance Team stemmed from his early implementation of the principle of repaying grievances directly and winning people over with virtue.

Time had passed by only ten minutes, but Cheng Ziang felt as though he had endured several hours instead. Finally, amidst a field of charred corpses and permeating burnt smell, Liseya retracted her fierce aura and returned in front of Cheng Ziang, gazing at him quietly with loving eyes.

"It’s been tough..." her sudden gentleness caught Cheng Ziang somewhat off-guard as he reluctantly greeted her with a forced smile.

Seemingly satisfied with Cheng Ziang’s praise, Liseya twirled through the air a few times before passing through his body again. This mode of interaction could ignite a general into a fiery rage, yet it made his chest feel warm and cozy without causing any harm.

It was a unique way of closeness that Liseya had, rarely used even by Fulajie’er. Passing through the body could evoke Soul Resonance, allowing mutual intentions to be conveyed effortlessly without personal volition. Fulajie’er was hesitant to use such intimacy, fearing others, especially Luo’er, might perceive her deepest concerns.

But Liseya, unlike the youthful girl Fulajie’er who was beset by romantic notions, had become a mother, and naturally didn’t have so many reservations. It was like how a mother could freely enter her child’s room. One could argue this was disrespectful to the child’s privacy, yet, oftentimes, it was unavoidable.

"Let’s head back," Cheng Ziang said, looking up at her, "Of course, if you prefer not to return to the containment, I’d be more than willing to accompany you for a while."

Hearing his words, Liseya’s eyes grew more dreamy. She slowly approached Cheng Ziang’s face until their noses almost touched. Lacking hands, she could only brush her hair strands against his cheeks.

For about ten seconds, the light in front of Cheng Ziang suddenly vanished, leaving behind a stunning image in his eyes.

"She’s gone back!" Fulajie’er announced, sensing Liseya’s disappearance.

"Sigh..." Cheng Ziang didn’t know what to say, merely letting out a sigh.

"It seems she still deeply cares about you, she seems to have heard your concerns just moments ago," Fulajie’er remarked sentimentally.

"That’s why I sighed..." Cheng Ziang said, shaking his head.

"Don’t say that; it makes it sound like you owe her something," Fulajie’er said. "Don’t forget, her only wish is to ensure your safety. As long as you’re alright, that’s the greatest solace for her."

"Maybe," Cheng Ziang shrugged, putting away his weapon, then suddenly frowned and looked into the air, "Speaking of which, when did you become so articulate?"

"What do you mean, are you suggesting I was dumb before?" Fulajie’er asked angrily.

"I didn’t say that; don’t flatter yourself," Cheng Ziang said with a smile.

"Cheng Ziang!" Fulajie’er exclaimed irritably in his mind.

"If you’re so concerned, why haven’t you dared to engage in Soul Resonance with Luo’er yet?" Cheng Ziang asked with a mischievous grin.

"What resonance?" Fulajie’er stuttered upon hearing his remark.

"The thing Liseya did to me. You’re a demigod, you should be able to do it too," Cheng Ziang said.

"That’s your method, why involve me?" Fulajie’er said evasively.

"The resonance of souls would allow mutual exchange of wills, you’re worried about that, aren’t you?" Cheng Ziang asked, narrowing his eyes.

"I don’t know what you’re talking about, acting all knowledgeable," Fulajie’er responded, lacking conviction.

"Alright, let’s leave it at that, hurry up and keep watch, we’re retreating!" Cheng Ziang said, making a hand gesture.

"Everyone is dead, just run back," Fulajie’er said.

"That bastard, I’ll deal with him later," Cheng Ziang muttered, turning back to look towards the direction of Wufeng City, his teeth clenched in resolve.
