I'll Quit Being a God

Chapter 250: Thunderbolt True Fire

In front of the Wolf God Temple, Lu Heng couldn't help but sigh with a sense of regret and nostalgia.

Once the boundless sea now seems no more than a pond; Only lofty mountains can still bear the resilient clouds. (This is a poetic quote from a Chinese poem)

Passing through the flowers, without turning back, my path in cultivation being half for the purpose of advancing, and half for the sake of Yuanjun... (This is also a poetic quote from a Chinese poem)

During Lu Heng's brief life, besides his parents, there was one important person who could almost be considered the warmest light in his life.

Shen Yuanjun...

A girl who always wears a smile on her face, no matter what hardships she faces. She is always optimistic and cheerful, full of hope for life and with a longing for the future. She never loses heart or blames others because of her terminal illness.

Her optimistic and cheerful demeanor is as beautiful as a princess in a fairytale, as if all gloom and drabness are naturally out of her reach, almost unreal.

Shen Yuanjun...

Lu Heng's expression was one of sadness and nostalgia.

This older sister, who was two years older than him, was someone he met in the hospital ward when he was sixteen years old.

She got the same terminal illness as him, and her condition was even more severe. However, on her face, Lu Heng couldn't see any shadow of sadness or despair.

She always smiled with happiness, never giving up due to her illness, nor losing her passion for life because of the disease.

She would happily share her aspirations, dreams, and plans with Lu Heng.

She wanted to travel, hike, see the aurora in the North Pole, watch sharks in the South Sea, and witness unseen landscapes. This girl, who always smiled happily, was like a gentle and warm sunshine shining into Lu Heng's heart during his most desperate and helpless time.

Lu Heng, who had lost faith and was walking like a zombie due to the terminal illness, regained the feeling of being alive.

Besides his parents and younger sister, this elder sister, who was two years older than him, was the person closest to Lu Heng's heart.

However, she left this world two years earlier than Lu Heng ...

"Shen Yuanjun..."

In front of the Wolf God Temple, Lu Heng murmured the name and a nostalgic smile appeared on his face.

"I haven't heard this name in a long time."

With a smile, Lu Heng looked at the little boy in front of him and asked, "Is your mother really Shen Yuanjun?"

Lu Heng's expression was calm, but the little boy was a little scared and nodded cautiously.

Lu Heng's peculiar and fluctuating reactions between sadness and smile at that moment scared the little boy.

However, today's Lu Heng had already lost his composure.

Looking at the nervous and frightened little boy in front of him, he shook his head and said, "What a coincidence it is that your mother has the same name as her... Hah."

Laughing inexplicably, Lu Heng said, "Do you have any token? Something left by your mother... Since you are here seeking for family, there must be some token, right?"

The little boy shook his head and said, "Mother didn't leave any token. She only had time to say father's name before she passed away."

Lu Heng's expression was calm as he asked, "Did she leave any jewelry or other things behind?"

The little boy hesitated for a moment and said, "There is one hairpin, it is mother's treasure, but it is with my elder sister..."

"I see," Lu Heng nodded and said, "In that case, I'll go with you to visit the place where your mother and you used to live in Luwu Mountain and then we'll make our way to the Green Hell Cave to rescue your sister."

"But before that, you should rest in the mountains. You have been tired and exhausted for a long time. Rest for a night, recharge your energy, and we'll leave the mountain tomorrow," Lu Heng said.

After Lu Heng finished speaking, he ignored the little boy and walked towards Gongshu Jie and Lianshan Jing not far away.

Silver-haired Xiao Ai, with animal ears, led Sun Yan to the little boy and said, "You can rest with Sun Yan... um, that is, this monkey, tonight and we will leave the mountain tomorrow."

After finishing speaking, Xiao Ai also turned around and left.

The little boy in front of the Wolf God Temple was a bit confused and didn't know what to do.

He looked at Lu Heng, who was walking away, and then at the curious white-furred ape in front of him. In the end, he could only obediently follow the white ape.

On the other side, Lu Heng came to Lianshan Jing and Gongshu Jie, and smiled.

"Sorry to have embarrassed you both."

Lianshan Jing looked curious and asked, "Does the Wolf God really know this child's mother?"

Lu Heng chuckled and said, "Shen Yuanjun is indeed an acquaintance of mine, but she may not necessarily be his mother."

Regarding this, Lu Heng still had great confidence.

If this child's mother is indeed Shen Yuanjun and if she knew that Lu Heng was at Hanyu Mountain, she would have come to meet him long before her death and would not have waited until the last moments to reveal the identity of the child's father.

There must be something fishy about this matter.

However, to confirm what the actual truth is, Lu Heng needed to investigate it himself.

After a brief conversation with Lianshan Jing and Gongshu Jie, Lu Heng soon parted ways with them.

Standing on the stone steps and watching the white thunder that the two people rode on disappear into the sky, Lu Heng let out a long sigh, his heart in a state of complex emotions.

Xiao Ai whispered behind him.

"The Wolf God, this senior Shen Yuanjun..."

"Well, she is a very important former acquaintance, but she has already passed away," Lu Heng said, "Even if she were still alive, she couldn't have given birth to two children for me."

At this point, Lu Heng couldn't help but laugh.

"Even if she did conceive my child without my knowledge, she wouldn't have waited until her death to reveal the truth," Lu Heng said, taking a step back.

"That woman is not the leading actress of a tear-jerking drama,"

With Sister Yuanjun's temperament, if she knew that Lu Heng was at Hanyu Mountain, even if there were a thousand difficulties and ten thousand hardships, she would have come to find him long ago.

Looking out at the lights of the Wind Strike Department's camp outside the mountain, Lu Heng shook his head and said, "Perhaps this is a plot by evil demons to tempt me down the mountain."

"In the world of cultivation, there are endless strange and sinister techniques. There's no need to be too surprised if you come across any creepy incidents," Lu Heng said.

Lu Heng's words made Xiao Ai's expression solemn, immediately recalling the demon shadow that Old Monk Jiu Mie had mentioned.

"The Wolf God, are you talking about... the demon shadow?" Xiao Ai thought of this strange demon shadow and couldn't help but worry, "But if it's really the demon shadow's plot, then you shouldn't go down the mountain now..."

Xiao Ai was vigilant and worried about the demon shadow.

That mysterious demon shadow had strange and sinister techniques and an extremely high level of cultivation. He was a master of the demonic path, even surpassing the innate masters like Old Monk Jiu Mie and defeating ancient monsters like the Erba God Man.

With such an evil demon shadow targeting the Wolf God, how can one not worry...

However, under the moonlight, Lu Heng, dressed in white, shook his head and said, "Why not go down the mountain? On the contrary, I should go down the mountain now."

The chilly moonlight silently fell on Lu Heng's body.

The man in white grinned slightly and laughed softly, "If we don't go down the mountain, how can we dig out that demon shadow?"

Boom--

With a loud bang, a blazing white thunder bolt streaked across the night sky at that very moment.

A gloomy white light instantly illuminated this corner of the world.

At that moment, Lu Heng, who had always been kind to others, had a fierce expression on his face that was even more pronounced against the pale lightning glare.

As if... a raging ancient demon god.
