Chapter 86

When Ling Luo woke up from his dreaming, he couldn’t find Lin Xiao.

At first, he thought that Lin Xiao had gone shopping.

In the past, Lin Xiao would often go out on his own.

But Ling Luo’s heart became panicky.

Ling Luo searched through the city and found Lin Xiao at a small inn.

Ling Luo sighed in relief, even though he knew that Lin Xiao had wanted to avoid him.

Hiding in a small corner, Ling Luo watched Lin Xiao secretly.

Lin Xiao appeared very relaxed.

His mouth was even humming a little song.

Ling Luo felt conflicted.

On one hand, he was happy that Lin Xiao was tranquil and content.

On the other hand, Lin Xiao only showed his cold face to Ling Luo.

Swallowing his bitterness, Ling Luo exhaled.

Who had made Ling Luo do wrong things?

No one.

……

Later, Ling Luo hunted again for Lin Xiao. Ling Luo thought Lin Xiao impractical for shopping alone, and Ling Luo wanted to set himself at ease.

But…this time, he explored all over.

Even using his cultivation, he still didn’t find Lin Xiao.

Ling Luo was confused.

Where was Lin Xiao?

Anxious, Ling Luo combed through the city once more.

Yet, no matter how Ling Luo looked, Lin Xiao’s whereabouts remained a mystery.

Where the hell did Lin Xiao go?

Ling Luo leaned against a wall, upset.

The feeling of missing Lin Xiao made Ling Luo desperate.

Lin Yue! Lin Xiao’s father would know where Lin Xiao had gone.

Opening his eyes, Ling Luo went back to the Lin house.

Arriving there, Ling Luo met Lin Yue at the gate.

“Uncle, do you know where Lin Xiao is?” Ling Luo asked eagerly.

Lin Yue glanced at Ling Luo, then shook his head, saying: “I don’t know.”

Leaving, Lin Yue registered the expression on Ling Luo’s face.

Ling Luo’s emotions seemed genuine.

Lin Xiao had to mean a great deal to Ling Lou.

Lin Yue sighed.

He couldn’t forget that Ling Luo had once destroyed Lin Xiao’s dantian. For that reason, Lin Yue didn’t want to tell Ling Luo anything about his son.

Besides, Lin Xiao had only said he was traveling the mainland, without specifying.

What use would that information be to Ling Luo?

……

Lin Yue was gone.

Ling Luo bit his lips, ruefully smiling.

If Lin Xiao had wanted Ling Luo to know, Lin Xiao would have told Ling Luo before he departed.

One thing was clear to Ling Luo. Lin Yue, as Lin Xiao’s father, had to know something.

Banishing his despair, Ling Luo got up.

He’d go after Lin Yue.

If Lin Yue really didn’t want to tell…

Then Ling Luo would go over the whole mainland to find Lin Xiao.

Decided, Ling Luo went to find Lin Yue.

Lin Yue’s treatment of Ling Luo was the same as Lin Xiao’s, namely indifferent.

No matter how Ling Luo asked Lin Yue, Lin Yue’s answer was always, “I don’t know.” Or, “It’s unclear.”

Ling Luo was not discouraged, however.

He still firmly trailed behind Lin Yue.

……

A few days later, Ling Luo was about to give up.

Maybe it was time to leave Lin Yue and roam the mainland.

It would be a difficult search, but if he persisted…

Ling Luo didn’t expect that Lin Yue would suddenly soften.

After Ling Luo’s doggedness, Lin Yue recognized Lin Xiao’s importance in Ling Luo’s heart.

Lin Yue’s anger over Lin Xiao’s dantian remained, but he could acknowledge that Ling Luo had helped recover it.

“The night before Lin Xiao departed, all he told me was that he was going to the mainland to cultivate. I don’t know any particular place.” Lin Yue told a pale-faced Ling Luo.

As expected, the mainland it was.

Even if Lin Yue’s words didn’t narrow Ling Luo’s search, Ling Luo appreciated them.

Ling Luo and Lin Yue thanked each other and separated, Ling Luo to go find Lin Xiao’s traces.

Ling Luo had hope, and no intention of relinquishing.

He’d never been one to quit easily.

Even if Lin Xiao didn’t like him…Even if Lin Xiao was disgusted by him…

Ling Luo would just quietly stay by Lin Xiao’s side, protecting.

What if Lin Xiao married and had children?

Thinking that , Ling Luo clenched his fists.

If such a day came, Ling Luo didn’t know what he would become…

……

Ling Luo started his journey.

The mainland was so big.

But it was just a matter of time.

If he had to travel every corner, he’d eventually find Lin Xiao.

That was for certain.

Ling Luo reassured himself in his heart.
