Chapter 1091 Return



The portal once again opened in the hall, but there wasn't any life energy that poured out of it like last time.

In fact, with the way that it drains some of the life energy from the air, it was as if there was a deficit of life energy on the other side.

Slowly, there was a figure that walked out of this portal and into the hall.

But this figure was…completely disheveled. 

They had messy hair and a long beard, as if they had been stranded for a long time.

After coming out of the portal, the messy figure said, "I'm finally out…"

There was a ghost that came out with this figure that said, "It wasn't that long. In fact, you actually absorbed the inheritance quite quickly. It was much faster than I had expected."

When the messy figure heard this, there was a vein that popped out on his forehead.

He turned to look at the ghost and said, "Five years! It took an entire five years to absorb all of that! And I couldn't leave until I did!"

The ghost just gave a shrug and said, "Five years isn't that long for a cultivator. You should think about the bigger picture. You never would have broken through the Dao Realm if it wasn't for the inheritance that you absorbed."

The vein on the messy figure's forehead popped out even more when he heard this before he said, "There was no reason to trap me here all this time! What about the people that I lost contact with! Don't you think that I'm causing them to worry about my safety?!"

The ghost gave a shrug before saying, "They shouldn't worry about you if they knew where you were going. It's probably your own fault for not telling them."

The messy figure really wanted to punch the ghost in the face, but he knew that this wasn't possible.

So he could only resort to lashing out at the ghost with his words.

Finally, he calmed down and took a moment to adjust himself.

Then he raised his hand and formed a mirror of water in it. At the same time, he raised his other hand and there was a white dagger that appeared in it.

With a single flick of his hand, he used the water mirror to shave off the beard and to trim his hair.

When all of that was done, there was a handsome face that was revealed.

As for the owner of this handsome face, it was Lin Fan.

After he went into the white portal that held the Void God's inheritance, he had been trapped in there for five years absorbing that giant black hole that had appeared.

During that time, he had been completely focused on absorbing all of the energy from that giant black hole that he had fallen into a daze. He hadn't been able to do a thing during this time, which was why he had looked so disheveled when he came out of the portal.

He had been sitting there for five years straight without moving once.

Once he was finished trimming his face, he gave a satisfied nod before turning back to the Void God's ghost who still had a stubborn look on his face, making it clear that he wasn't willing to back down.

He just couldn't see it from Lin Fan's point of view because he had lived for millions upon billions of years. For someone as old as him, a simple five years was nothing more than a blink of an eye.

But for someone like Lin Fan who had only lived for less than twenty years when he went into that portal, this was equal to 25% of his entire lifespan.

This was not a small period of time for him.

But he knew that it was impossible for him to get the Void God's ghost to see it from his point of view, so he knew better than to keep trying.

Instead, he wanted to know something else.

Lin Fan looked at the Void God's ghost with a serious look.

Seeing Lin Fan look at him like this, the Void God's ghost revealed a strange look before asking, "What? What is it?"

There wasn't any prestige like his voice had when they had first met.

During the five year span, even if Lin Fan hadn't been able to move, his mind was still active.

As a ghost, the Void God was able to communicate with him during this time and the two of them had gotten close. They had personalities that clicked with each other, so it didn't take them long to become friends.

This friendship continued to grow over the five years that they spent together, so even with the difference in age between them, they were able to speak with each other in casual tones.

Lin Fan didn't say anything at first as he kept staring at the Void God's ghost, but then he suddenly asked, "What are you planning on doing now?"

The Void God's ghost was caught off guard suddenly being asked this, but his expression fell after he did hear it.I think you should take a look at

With that sad look, he said, "There's nothing for me to do now. I'm just a simple ghost, there's nothing that I can do. Not to mention, I've already given you my inheritance which is the source of my power, so I wouldn't even be able to do anything if I wanted to leave this place."

Lin Fan's expression also fell when he heard this.

After all, he had thought that he would be able to take the Void God's ghost back with him.

He had planned on helping the Void God's ghost create a new body just like he had done with Hong Long, but now the Void God's ghost was telling him that it wasn't possible.

Well, it was possible, but if he did, the Void God would become a normal person.

After all, all of his power had been absorbed by Lin Fan and it was impossible to give it back now.

The Void God's ghost could see what Lin Fan was thinking based on the expression on his face, so he said, "I appreciate the offer, but I've already made up my mind. This world isn't a place for me to stay in any longer, I should have moved on a long time ago. If it wasn't for the promise that I made to my friend…"

He didn't finish his words, but it was clear that there was a story behind them with the look that he had on his face.

After a long time, the Void God's ghost said, "Anyway, my spirit won't last in this world much longer, so if there's anything that you want to ask before I go, then you should ask now."

There was a sincere tone in his voice as he said this.

It was as if he really wanted to do something for Lin Fan before he disappeared.

This was his way of repaying him for the time that they had spent together in that white world.

After all, he had been alone for a long time.

But Lin Fan wasn't able to ask anything at this moment.

There were things that he wanted to ask, but he couldn't ask them since he knew that they would touch on something that the Void God's ghost didn't want to talk about or couldn't talk about.

Just like how the Void God's ghost wanted to help Lin Fan, Lin Fan wanted to give the Void God's ghost a proper rest.

So he didn't want to do anything that would make it hard for him.

After a period of silence, Lin Fan shook his head and said, "There's nothing that I want to know."

The Void God's ghost revealed a smile when he heard this since he knew what Lin Fan meant with this.

He looked down at him with a warm smile before saying, "I'm glad that it was you who was chosen as my successor. You are the kind of person that I could have been friends with if you had been around during my time…"

Neither of them a thing as they looked at each other with emotional looks.

But in the end, it was the Void God's ghost who ran out of time first.

His figure started to fade away and he started to dissipate into tiny bits.

Neither of them said a thing as they looked at each other while he disappeared, but the looks on their faces were more than enough.

However, as the Void God's ghost disappeared, he suddenly remembered something that he had to tell Lin Fan.

"The one who gave you the key, he has your best intentions at heart."

That was the last thing that the Void God's ghost said before he disappeared.

Once he was gone, Lin Fan was just left there with a bitter smile on his face.

He didn't know why the Void God's ghost said this, but it did have a large effect on him.

After all, the one that had given him this key was the system that he had doubts about for the longest time…

Now he knew that the system of his was related to the friend that the Void God's ghost had mentioned.

He still didn't know if he should trust this system or not…

But for now, that wasn't what he needed to think about.

For now, he needed to think about what was waiting for him when he got home.

He was sure that Angela would be angry…
