Chapter 1260: Chapter 867 Dad, You Have to Be Nicer to My Aunt

In the future, the one who killed Chen Yu was a player with heterochromatic eyes, which became Li Luoling’s most persistent revenge.

She was very worried that the future could not be changed; at the very least, she wanted to eliminate the danger for her aunt.

Li Changhe understood her thoughts. He too had actively tried to change the already determined fate of the real world, to let Yun Ting and his parents in that world survive, even if that world had no place for him.

In this regard, father and daughter were exactly alike.

Li Luoling was then lost in her memories.

In her vague memories of childhood, Chen Yu had always taken care of her.

Before her parents went missing, her aunt liked to kiss her face and secretly give her candy.

After her parents went missing, Annihilation arrived, and she, naïve and ignorant, was thrown by the Dark Side into the icy depths of the deep abyss. It was her aunt who traversed the abyss to find her.

On their way back, her aunt was attacked by a strong practitioner of the Book of Heaven and nearly died.

Had it not been for the Resurrection pill her mother left for her aunt, perhaps they would have died in that demon’s lair then and there—or even met a fate more tragic.

Li Luoling, daughter of Li Changhe and Xiao Nan, possessed talents that even a Demigod would admire. Many beings wanted to obtain her.

It was then that the young Li Luoling began to long for strength, the strength to protect her aunt.

From that moment, her aunt was nearly inseparable from her. She took her through deserted cities, across dangerous wilderness, back to the relatively safe second layer deep abyss of the Dark Side, where they rallied the remnants of the Great Wall and re-established it.

Her aunt was the only leader among all the major forces of the Dark Side who was not a Demigod. Yet, she stood shoulder to shoulder with Divinities. Under her command, the rebuilt Great Wall gradually developed and got back on the right track.

But inevitably, conflicts arose with various forces.

If one were to speak of the most crucial resource in the Dark Side, it would be the population.

Hua Country had a large population, and under the protection of the Great Wall, a large number of humans lived within the sheltered areas of the Great Wall.

This also made the forces of different sides covetous.

Due to the lack of high-end combat power, the surviving Great Wall players generally had low levels. The only dozen or so Great Wall captains could protect only so much, struggling to face more enemies on the same level.

Thus, through repeated overt and covert conflicts with major forces, they suffered many losses. Many Great Wall players died in battle or were severely injured or disabled, dealing a significant blow to the developing Great Wall.

It was infuriating, truly infuriating.

If only there were a few more captain-level warriors, or a few more Hundred Generals masters.

Or if there were powerful figures like Chen Guang and Yang Dong, who could suppress Different Races, those forces would not dare to be so arrogant, not dare to offend so!

The loss and death of high-end combat power made it increasingly difficult for the Great Wall to develop in the Dark Side. There were even instances of Demigods forcibly entering the Great Wall Base, provoking the Great Wall.

The Great Wall Demigod, Chen Tianjiao, for the sake of protecting the Void Defense, to create time for more humans to evacuate, ultimately died above the Black Great Wall.

The Great Wall Demigod, the sword master Wuji, to carve out a sliver of hope for humanity, hoped for Demigods to fight alongside him, but no one responded, ultimately perishing alongside the Great Monarch of Annihilation.

They sacrificed their lives to bring hope to the Dark Side, and yet this was the treatment they received!

This was such a desecration!

If not for the Xuanyuan Divine Sword still suppressing forces in the void, if not for the Mercury Angel, who had previously cooperated with the Great Wall, stepping in to mediate, if not for the Biomimetic Teardrop of Li Changhe still alive in the world.

The Great Wall back then might not have been able to exist in the Dark Side at all.

And all these internal and external pressures undoubtedly weighed on the shoulders of Chen Yu.

Li Luoling was very aware, her aunt in front of outsiders was calm and reliable. She was the leader of the Dark Side Great Wall.

But when she returned home, her aunt would shed the disguise she forcefully maintained, revealing her exhaustion and melancholy.

Having consumed the Resurrection pill, Chen Yu’s body no longer aged. Her appearance was fixed in her early twenties. This was also why Li Luoling called her aunt.

But even so, her weariness could not be concealed.

Every night, Aunt Chen Yu would hold Li Luoling and whisper to her softly.

"If your father were here, their only choice would be to kneel down. Kneel before the Bronze Throne and cry, begging your father not to paint them on the wall." This was a phrase Aunt often repeated.

"Was my dad really that powerful? More powerful than a teardrop?" the young Li Luoling asked.

"Yes, he was the most powerful hero under the heavens, a hero who would never let us down. He will surely come back and beat up those who bullied us," Aunt said with a light chuckle as she lulled Li Luoling to sleep.

Even the young Li Luoling could sense her aunt’s steadfast trust in her father. She believed in him, and she looked forward to his return...

But that father, hailed as a hero, had not come back, as always.

In that time, Li Luoling grew up. And her aunt, who stood guard by her side, was always alone.

Despite having many suitors, she rejected them all using the excuse of having a child. And she secretly told Li Luoling that she was over forty and would not ruin those young men.

Li Luoling did not expose her aunt’s little lie.

Eventually, Li Luoling became the strongest among the demigods. Holding the Xuanyuan Divine Sword, even demigods could not match her.

Then, Chen Yu put down her heavy burden and stepped back. She started to research how to bring back the human heroes.

Years later, when Li Luoling was twenty-two, her aunt excitedly told her that she had found a way to bring back the heroes.

Yes, she was so eager, so desperate.

Thus, the plan started. Aunt would lead several Great Wall champions to the bottom abyss, to the center of the Pacific of that abyss.

She believed that those heroes were lost in the endless void. If only she could light a beacon for them, they would be able to trace their way back. And the bottom abyss was the area closest to the void.

As the strongest, Li Luoling was requested by Chen Yu to stay at the headquarters, responsible for keeping an eye on those divinities delaying their progress. As long as she watched over those divinities, Chen Yu would not face any danger.

"I will bring back your father and mother," her aunt said with a rare smile on her face, then led the team towards the deep abyss.

However, that turned out to be the last time Li Luoling saw her aunt.

When she received the news that the Great Wall’s ocean fleet had been attacked by an unprecedented demigod, she raced to the rescue using various teleportation arrays.

However, what she saw... was her aunt’s body, damaged to the extent that it barely could be recognized!

Her beloved aunt, her dearest relative, had been brutally murdered!

And the hero her aunt had been waiting for did not come to save her!

"No!!!!" Li Luoling let out a painfully extreme scream.

That day, she madly slaughtered almost all the void creatures in the area.

Finally, she found the demigod who had killed her aunt.

The one... with different colored eyes, the new demigod!

Using the Xuanyuan Sword in a frenzy, she killed the heterochromatic demigod. But her aunt was not coming back. The aunt who held her to sleep, who cared profoundly for her, more like her own mother... was no more...

She cried in agony, wandering aimlessly in the bottom of the abyss... until she suddenly sensed her aunt’s presence... She had returned to the time before the abyss emerged! Seeing her once lost aunt again! This time... she would not let her aunt face any danger.

"Dad, you should treat aunt a little nicer," Li Luoling quietly pleaded, and in her heart, she murmured: "You are the hero she’s been longing for."

Li Changhe expressed oddly, "She mooches food and drink every day, and even sleeps holding my wife. And you’re telling me to be nicer to her?"

"...You’re even jealous of Aunt?" Li Luoling suddenly felt her aunt and mother must have been blind.

(You didn’t expect this, but here I am again)
