Dao of the Bizarre Immortal

Chapter 915 - Living Together

Even though Li Huowang had found answers to most of his questions, he was still in deep trouble. Still, he could now could see his issues in a different light.

Li Huowang swore to fight back to his last breath. Isn’t it just God Yu’er and Sir Arrogant Stone? Come on, then! You succeeded last time, but don’t you dare think your schemes will work again!

No matter how many Simings he had to kill or how many times the timeline reset, Li Huowang would persevere until he accomplished his goal. He had no fear of death, let alone failure.

Just then, a fresh bowl of food was placed in front of Li Huowang. It was a steaming bowl of white rice topped with fried eggs and tomatoes.

Looking up, he saw Wu Qi had brought it over. “Thank you, but one serving is enough for me.”

“Who said it’s for you? I need you to give it to someone else.”

This left Li Huowang perplexed. He was sure everyone had eaten. Also, why was he the one who needed to deliver the food? “Who is it for?”

“Your girl. She’s still upstairs right now. Did you forget that you have a girlfriend?”

“Yang Na?” Li Huowang realized that Yang Na was still at Qing Wanglai’s house since the timeline had been reset. He had originally come here to bring her back.

“I meant to tell you earlier, but you were talking non-stop with Qing Wanglai and Zhao Shuangdian. I didn’t even get a chance to interrupt you.

“I don’t want to pry too much into your relationship, but your girlfriend seems off. She doesn’t have an appetite. See if you can get her to eat the meal, or I might have to sustain her through IVF.”

“Thank you, Wu Qi...”

Li Huowang felt a weight on his chest when he remembered how Yang Na had been acting. He took the bowl of food and walked up with a heavy heart.

Yang Na was still in the third room. Li Huowang opened the door and saw her in the bed at the corner of the room. She looked malnourished and disheveled.

“Nana, are you hungry? Let’s eat first.”

Li Huowang carefully lifted her up and set her down next to the table.

Yang Na held onto his wrist tightly, as if she was afraid that he would escape. “Huowang, is that you?”

She then noticed Li Huowang’s empty eye socket. She touched his face gingerly. “Huowang, where is your eye? Why is it missing? I’m sorry, is it because of me? Did I cause it?”

“No.”

Li Huowang carefully held her hands and checked her scarred wrists. “No, it’s not because of you. Don’t worry about it. You did not cause any harm to me. I’m the one who harmed you.”

“I’m relieved to hear that. But seeing you with just one eye... it breaks my heart.”

Yang Na suddenly smiled without any warning. “Huowang, I trust you. I really do. No matter what you say, I will trust you. I am the Heavenly Mater, and I’m a Siming, just like you.”

Yang Na’s words pierced Li Huowang’s heart, causing a searing pain that he couldn’t shake off, despite having gone through it before.

Li Huowang tried his best to conceal his expression. He didn’t want her to think she was hurting him. He forced the most genuine smile he could. “That’s good. That’s good.”

This time, Li Huowang decided not to send her back. Since the timeline would reset again, he wanted to make Yang Na as happy as possible.

He regarded it as a dream, one that he could wake up from at any moment. Unlike him, everyone else in his vicinity would soon forget what transpired.

Yang Na snuggled against Li Huowang’s chest dreamily as she mumbled, “Huowang, I am the Heavenly Mater. I am a Siming. I can help you now. I won’t drag you down anymore.”

“You are not dragging me down. You can help me too. Nana is the best. Come now, let’s eat first.”

Li Huowang comforted her like a child as he took a spoonful of rice and placed it close to her mouth.

He slowly fed her and saw that she was slowly becoming better. Li Huowang was relieved to see that she was eating.

“Huowang, don’t worry about me. It’s not your fault. I feel much better, and I can move now.”

She tried to push him away so she could stand up, but Li Huowang held onto her.

“That’s fine. Let’s just rest for tonight since it’s already quite late. We can talk more tomorrow.”

After finishing his meal and comforting Yang Na, Li Huowang took the empty bowl and left the room.

As he exited, he noticed Qing Wanglai standing before the door. He had been waiting for him.

Li Huowang clenched his fist upon seeing Qing Wanglai’s smiling face. However, he ultimately released his grip.

“Do you want to stay here tonight? I’ve prepared your room.”

As long as no one threatened his plans, Qing Wanglai remained as perfect as everyone thought him to be.

“No need. I will stay in the same room as her. I need to stay by her side.”

Li Huowang walked past Qing Wanglai and went down the stairs.

“Yang Na is awake. This is good news. We now have one more ally.”

Bam! In the end, Li Huowang still punched him. “I’m warning you—keep her out of this. If you don’t, I will kill you.”

Qing Wanglai chuckled and rubbed the bruise on his face. “Li Huowang, I don’t think that’s rational. Don’t you think it would be a waste if she doesn’t help us? She has the power to do so now.

“Besides, have you even bothered to ask for her permission? Maybe she doesn’t want to squander her talent. Even if she refrains from killing, having another ally by our side would still be good.”

Li Huowang smashed the bowl on the railings, and the broken pieces scattered on the stairs. Li Huowang picked up a sharp piece and pushed it against Qing Wanglai’s neck. “I said no. Are you deaf?”

“I’m not, but what are you afraid of? You’re the one who said that time would reset again as long as we kill another Siming. In that case, what’s wrong with losing our lives? We don’t have enough allies right now. Every single one matters.”

Li Huowang’s anger almost boiled over when he stopped and let go of the shrapnel.

“Alright, I will bring Yang Na to Zhao Shuangdian. I will let her join their alliance instead.”

Qing Wanglai frowned. “Hm?”

Li Huowang chuckled and looked at Qing Wanglai playfully. “Didn’t you say every single ally counts? I will let Yang Na ally herself with Zhao Shuangdian. That should fulfill your conditions, right?”

Seeing Qing Wanglai remain silent, Li Huowang walked down the stairs with pleasure.

He finally found a way to communicate with Qing Wanglai. A physical threat wouldn’t work on him, but Wu Qi was right. As long as he understood what made Qing Wanglai tick, dealing with him was easy.
