Chapter 2074 - 88: Sworn to Follow unto Death (Part 3)

"Fool."

Gu Shen smacked the head of the golden spike flowers firmly and teased with a smile.

Suddenly, he restrained his smile and said quietly, "Many will die in this storm, and perhaps I will also die within it."

The golden spike flowers, with their vertical pupils, silently watched Gu Shen.

"But I have to return."

Gu Shen said, "What the Hunter God couldn’t achieve, I want to try."

These words, though spoken to the golden spike flowers,

felt more like Gu Shen talking to himself.

Approaching home, his Heart Lake was restless, not only because of the war, but also due to the "Damo Sword" hanging above everyone’s head.

Super Giant Source Material Storm!

This hanging sword could fall at any time, annihilating everyone!

He could certainly choose to flee, like the Storm God’s Throne, taking the starship northward, bypassing the path of the source material storm, claiming to leave a sliver of hope for civilization...

But Gu Shen didn’t want to choose this.

Because...

He has already proven one thing, this world has no oasis.

The entire world is just so vast!

Back then, the Lord of Melting Iron chose to take the civilians of the Starship Era onto the vessels to escape because they firmly believed that deep within the unknown world lay an untarnished sanctuary untouched by the storm, but after centuries of traversing, they stumbled back to square one.

There was simply no oasis.

This world is a giant sphere.

"So... even facing death, are you willing to follow me?"

Gu Shen looked at the golden spike flowers.

He stretched out his palm, gently cupping the chin of the Big Snake.

Chi Huo burned, and the real world was drawn into Dream. The Big Snake’s body suddenly shrank from hundreds of meters to tens of meters, then to several meters, and finally turned into a long scarf, hanging around Gu Shen’s shoulders. The surrounding scene had unconsciously transformed into the Pure Land kingdom, returning to the familiar "under the pendant tree."

"Of course!"

The voice of the golden spike flowers was very earnest.

Its vertical pupil color was very clean, black and white.

"No matter how Lord Divine chooses, the golden spike flowers will follow with life allegiance!"

The vast wilderness was swept by numerous flying grass leaves.

Sitting under the pendant tree, leaning against the big tree to cool off, Tie Wu, chewing a grass leaf, suddenly saw the apparition of Lord Divine descending, holding the "little cauliflower snake" he always found disagreeable.

The cold wind blew, and he shivered.

My goodness?

Many years without meeting, and now we meet with such a big wave, is this currying favor with Lord Divine?

Upon hearing the oath of the golden spike flowers, he spat out the grass leaf with a "ptooey" and promptly stood up.

"I am willing to follow Lord Divine through fire and water, facing death countless times!"

Tie Wu’s voice was louder than that of the golden spike flowers.

His voice echoed in every corner of the Pure Land, those lost souls, mostly mentally incomplete, their will insufficient, not articulate in speech.

But under Tie Wu’s training,

They were trained to be as strong as steel, stopping their "farming" work one after another.

"I am willing to follow Lord Divine through fire and water! Facing death countless times!"

"Through fire and water! Facing death countless times!"

Li Qingci helplessly lifted her head.

Everywhere were flying flowers, golden leaves.

And the eternal chorus of "follow with life allegiance."

Li Qingci was somewhat dazed.

She reached out to press down on her bamboo hat, laughing softly and muttering.

"Qingci also wishes to follow Lord Divine... through fire and water, facing death countless times."
