Chapter 230: Heir of the first gate Part3
"Thanks, son. Thanks a lot for trusting us. I can't even begin to imagine the pain of losing you all over again. She will never be able to recover from that." John Augustin gazed at his precious son and slowly enunciated the words of apology.
Luther tried his hardest to ignore his father's glistening eyes, but his heart softened a little.
"It's okay, dad. No harm was done. But if there is a second time, then we can only part as enemies." Luther looked away from his father's loving eyes and mumbled hesitantly before leaving the house with little white and Rabbit.
After leaving their villa, Luther quickly joined Su Lin and the others at the old mansion.
He rushed over to Su Lin and hugged her tightly. He then checked his precious wifey from top to bottom for any wounds.
"Are you okay, my dear?" Luther hugged her and mumbled with a pained expression in his eyes.
"I am okay. The baby is also unharmed. What happened? Did your dad explain why your mother acted like that?" Su Lin worriedly asked.
She knew very well just how important these relations were to Luther.
If there was anything that could be done, she wanted to do it, to and try salvage this situation.
Luther sat everyone down and patiently explained to Su Lin and the others about the new information he had gathered about the eight gates.
Since it concerned everyone and literally all his brothers were thirsting for exacting vengeance on the Ninth gate, he didn't leave out anything and explained everything in detail.
No one had expected such a huge secret behind the Nine gates of hell.
Even Su Lin let out a huge gasp of surprise.
So, just like my world, this planet as well had abundant spiritual energy to begin with!!
Su Lin slowly tried to connect all the dots in her brain.
A few seconds later, she looked at Luther, while the man was gazing at the distance with a pensive look on his face.
Throughout this whole thing, Su Lin had been more focused on what her hubby was saying, so she didn't immediately realize the oddity in his tone.
But now that she looked at him, something didn't feel quite right.
"Are you okay?" She worriedly kissed her cute hubby's forehead and gently asked.
The entire time the man had been talking about his family and the eight gates his voice had been very cold and calculative.
She could no longer sense any warmth and love when Luther talked about his family.
The man was clearly overjoyed and deliriously happy when he first met with his parents and all that had now disappeared.
He must have been really hurt by his mother's words and actions. Su Lin sighed.
Even though he was a grown man, Luther had still earned for motherly affection for most of his life, and now that he had finally found her….
Things didn't go their way and, Su Lin felt that the man was deeply let down.
"Baby, please don't be like this. Your mother was just a bit hasty." Su Lin tried to console him.
"Hmmm." Luther absent-mindedly nodded.
He then turned towards her and curiously asked, with his mind on something else now.
"Do you think you will be able to help our baby if we have access to more spiritual energy?"
"Ah~" Su Lin was slightly taken aback. She was also thinking about the same thing before she got distracted by his melancholic expression.
"Yes! Definitely!" She answered back with hope sparkling in her eyes.
"With access to spiritual qi, there is so much I can do to ensure the safety of our child."
"There is literally no limit to the number of elixirs I can brew and spirit herbs I can grow."
"We can 100% easily save our child." Su Lin beamed and explained in excitement.
She looked at Luther's expression slowly brightening up with her every word and smugly chuckled.
"My dear, have you forgotten?? In an another life, in an another world, I was a supreme grandmaster alchemist, my love."
She smiled and blew a kiss on the man's lips.
Luther's face softened as the man returned her peck gently.
He smiled subconsciously looking at the thin slender waist of the woman standing in front of him.
"OK. That's good to hear. Because that is the only reason I agreed to give them a second chance." Luther muttered.
"They might be my parents, but since they dared to raise their hands against you, I no longer want anything to do with them."
There was a seriousness on his face that looked resolute and unwavering.
Su Lin sighed and slipped onto the man's lap. She didn't want him to have this sort of half-baked relation with his parents, especially on her account.
She pulled him closer and hugged him tightly.
"Baby, I am not one to lecture about trust, but please consider genuinely giving them a second chance, my love."
She planted sloppy wet kisses on the man's smoldering brooding face and tried to coax him slowly.
"COUGH… COUGH… We are still standing here, you shameless couple!!" Monkey loudly cleared his throat and chuckled.
His silly comment made Luther grin and one side of his lips pulled up to reveal a gorgeous smirk.
The man pulled his wifey closer one more time and kissed her deeply, just to piss Monkey off.
Runyan, Rabbit, and Squirrel laughed as well, with Little white continuing to glare at Luther.
Su Lin smiled as well. Leave it to this guy to turn any serious situation into a frivolous one! She deadpanned.
Looking at everyone's laughing faces, Luther grinned and declared "Call the others back. We will go visit this so-called first gate together!"
Now that they had already discovered the hidden truth about the mystery of the world, they no longer needed to search for anything on their own, and it was undeniably best for everyone to stay together.
Ha Ha… Monkey chuckled. "It's vacation time!"
