Chapter 111 The Proverbs of Destiny Flowed Like Spring Water at My Feet
"Can you see me?" Karin asked cautiously.
"Otherwise what?" The boy's heterochromatic eyes were cold, then suddenly he curled his lips into a smile. "Is this your companion?"
"No! No! Don't talk nonsense!" Huali denied it three times in a row.
However, the boy clearly had no intention of getting to the bottom of things, and seeing that she was unarmed, he turned and left.
After a slight pause, Huali immediately ran forward, "Hey, wait for me... Oh my god!"
The ice blade pierced right in front of Huali's feet. The boy turned his head and sneered, "Don't follow me anymore, or I'll kill you."
Huali: "..." If she hadn't just shared a body with him and known that he was only at the Qi Refining level, she probably would have been fooled by him!
It's impossible for her not to follow him; he's the master of the dream, and Huali needs him to escape the dream.
"Fine, kill me then." After thinking it through, Huali ran after him and turned her head to look at him.
The boy before me had silver hair and fox ears, and his still-growing features already hinted at the appearance of a young man.
Seeing her casually approach, the boy's eyes flashed with mockery. "Aren't you afraid of death?"
"I'm scared!" Huali pointed her index finger mysteriously. "But you can't kill me."
Want to know why?
The boy looked at Huali's face as she leaned closer. Other demons disdained to approach him because he was a half-demon hybrid, while human cultivators, seeing that he was a demon, were determined to capture him for medicinal purposes and pills.
This is the first time we've been this close.
The boy's eyes suddenly narrowed, and the condensed ice blade pierced through Huali's body in an instant.
Both of them were taken aback.
A look of surprise flashed in the boy's heterochromatic eyes: "You're a divine soul?"
Karin suppressed her wildly beating heart and said, "Now you believe me, right? You can't kill me."
"Forget it, I don't want to know."
"Hey, I didn't say I wouldn't tell you." Huali ran up and walked alongside him. "You might not believe me when I tell you, but I came from hundreds of years in the future."
It was raining outside the cave dwelling at the Demon Transformation Pool. Upon hearing this, the young man fell silent. "Do I look like an idiot?"
Karin's gaze was serious. "Not now, but later... well, more like a lunatic than an idiot."
The boy's lips curled into a mocking smile, and he was about to speak when Huali across from him suddenly clapped her hands, "Ah, right, right, that's it! Curl that corner of your mouth up a little more!"
Seeing that he didn't move, Huali simply stretched out her index finger and manually adjusted the angle, "That's it! That's the taste!"
juvenile:"......"
He couldn't be bothered to pay her any more attention. Right now, he had to cross the North Cliff to find the Other Shore Orchid on the Luo River; he'd heard that eating it could change the mixed blood of demons.
If he can become a pureblood, he can give birth to a second tail.
If he continues to train diligently, he might be able to become a six-tailed fox like the elder.
But all of this is predicated on him being a pureblood.
Having made up his mind, the boy stepped into the rain.
There was no place for him among the demons; the great Dao of Heaven and Earth was inherently lonely. He had been alone since childhood, and the loneliness that others had to grit their teeth to swallow was nothing more than the rising and falling mist in his breath.
Just as Huali was about to speak again, she saw the boy step into the rain.
She paused for a moment, then immediately followed, "Hey, wait for me!"

When the second lightning tribulation descended, the Sumeru Domain was fully opened.
As Fen Yu watched helplessly as Hua Li was about to disappear in mid-air, he immediately summoned his magic weapon and roared, "That's the Nine Heavens Thunder Tribulation! You'll kill her!"
At the heart of the formation, Luo Chuan casually waved his hand, and Fen Yu, a thousand miles away, was immediately struck by an invisible force, his body slamming into the ground.
"Noisy".
At the same time, Huali's body was already wrapped in soft fox fur like a cocoon, and she landed outside the formation's core.
Wu Jin frowned. "Each bolt of lightning in the Nine Heavens Tribulation contains the residual power of the previous one. Now, the third one is about to strike. If you are distracted again, you will surely die."
Luo Chuan swallowed the blood in his throat and raised an eyebrow. "Oh? If I were to die, shouldn't the elders be relieved that their century-long wish has been fulfilled?"
Wu Jin: "..."
A Nascent Soul stage elder beside him spoke hoarsely, "Luo Chuan, the world may condemn our Witch Clan as fame-seeking, cowardly, and greedy, but you... know why we do this..."
Luo Chuan's playful smile froze.
It was precisely because he knew this that he didn't kill them all immediately.
This world was nothing but a mirage to him, so long that he couldn't even remember the origin of his own name... He had nothing to be attached to...
"Can..."
He chuckled softly, sounding somewhat embarrassed.
"The little girl's magical herbs haven't been sold yet..."
"If she trades spirit herbs for spirit stones, she can taste the ice seeds of the Northern Cliff, pluck jade branches from Kunlun, and chase fireflies with her fat cat..."
Just thinking about this made him reluctant to die.
Luo Chuan slowly stood up, waved his hand to sever the third bolt of heavenly lightning, and cracks instantly appeared all over the spine-worm sword.
A swarm of silver cursed butterflies flew from his hand toward the cocoon.
"Little Pear, if you don't wake up soon, I'll really throw you away to feed the snakes."

"Your robe is covered in the scales of the Ghost Face Moth!" Huali aimed at the Blue Flame Butterfly on the boy's shoulder. "Watch this!" The pebble hit the boy's head quickly and accurately.
Huali: "......"
Seeing the boy's unfriendly expression, Huali quickly grinned and said, "Oops, oops!"
"You did this on purpose?" the boy asked coldly.
"How could that be? Am I that kind of person?" Huali retorted, dissatisfied. "If I hadn't been keeping watch for you all the way, how could you have gotten to Luoshui so quickly? And you actually doubt me?"
Faced with Huali's unjust accusation, the boy raised an eyebrow. "So when I passed by the North Cliff last month, you said there was something strange there, but it ended up destroying the Ice Demon's lair and causing me to be chased to the Stone Forest. I should thank you for that?"
"I was just trying to gather herbs for you because I saw you were injured." Knowing she was in the wrong, Huali's voice grew softer and softer until she was completely silent.
Huali never expected the dream to last so long.
The two of them had been on their journey since they set off in the rain nearly two months ago.
They traversed glaciers, dense forests, and deserts, finally arriving at this valley before dawn.
Hearing Huali's words, the boy's eyes trembled slightly. He turned around and sat by the stream, washed the wild fruit and placed it on the leaves. He then turned to untie the bandage on his hand, only untying one knot before stopping.
Huali sat down beside him familiarly and took over the bandaging. "It's been so long, aren't you going to tell me your name yet?"
He never called her that throughout the journey, so naturally Huali never called him Luochuan either.
But this little demon was completely different from the psychopath he became as an adult; he was like a gourd with a sawed mouth, revealing not a single word.
Unfortunately, Huali had no choice but to bring up the topic herself.
But after a moment of silence, the boy casually turned the bloodstains inside his snow-white undergarment over, and said calmly, "A half-demon doesn't deserve a name."
He has been a half-demon, a mongrel, since he can remember. Only purebloods are worthy of having names.
Huali was stunned for a moment; she never expected it to be for this reason.
The boy didn't hear the voice beside him. Just as a mocking smile appeared on his lips, a fruit was shoved into his hand, covered with crooked and grotesque scribbles.
He looked up, puzzled.
Huali smiled and said, "Who said you don't have a name? These two characters are your name."
juvenile:"......"
The two, one human and one demon, stared at each other for a few seconds. Suddenly, the boy's fox ears turned into airplane ears, and annoyance flashed across his face!
After his flattery backfired, Hua Li suddenly realized, "Oh right! He still can't read!"
Seeing his face growing increasingly red, Huali immediately stood up. Before he could go berserk, she pulled him up and pointed to the mountain peak not far away.
"Look there!"
The boy stood bewildered in the dawn mist, following the direction of her fingertip.
The morning mist is receding from the distant mountains, revealing a hundred thousand emerald peaks one after another.
"Mountains and rivers, stretching endlessly. Luochuan is your name."
The moment the boy's pupils widened, the prophecy of fate surged forth like gurgling spring water beneath their feet.
The golden causal threads pierced through numerous obstacles, heading straight for the demon king amidst the lightning tribulation.
