Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road novel Chapter 734

Chapter 734: Retribution

All night, Huang Bai Xing gazed at the sleeping figure with confusion. What was he doing? Why was he holding this woman whom he disliked? Why had he revealed his secret of coming to find the artifacts to her?

That day, Shenlian Yingyue woke up to find herself wrapped in a warm blanket inside a tent. She thought that her companions had done this for her, and she felt comforted. She didn’t ask, and no one in the Ethereal Small World told her.

They found it strange that Huang Bai Xing had this gentle side toward her. They couldn’t understand it, and they didn’t want to either. As long as Huang Bai Xing stopped causing problems for Yue’er, no one paid attention to her.

After that night, Shenlian Yingyue never saw Huang Bai Xing again. It took her several days to calm her emotions. She didn’t want to ruin everyone’s mood for traveling, so she tried her best to move on from that painful scene.

Although her heart still hurt from their misfortunes, she pressed on and tried to forget that painful experience. She buried that hurtful and regretful feeling deep in her heart so that she could move forward in her life.

(Present Time)

"Do your eyes grow at your ass?" Suddenly, a high-pitched voice pierced her ears.

Shenlian Yingyue found herself wandering in a daze along the street. Something collided with her, and she turned to see a beautiful girl who seemed to be around 17 years old.

"I’m sorry," she apologized to the girl, stretching out her hand to help her up.

Hearing such a sincere apology, the girl’s expression softened, but she refused Shenlian Yingyue’s assistance.

Shenlian Yingyue didn’t mind the girl’s rude attitude.

Just as the girl was about to say something, another voice called out.

"Dear, are you done shopping? Why don’t we head home quickly so we can celebrate your birthday?" A beautiful woman, seemingly around forty eight years old, came to take the girl’s hand.

Beside her stood a man, the woman’s husband, who looked at both his wife and daughter as he patiently awaited their responses.

Shenlian Yingyue stood motionless, observing how the two spoke to their daughter in such a pampered tone.

After a moment, she turned away and walked off silently.

"Hey, wait!" The girl wanted to call out, but Shenlian Yingyue didn’t stop to listen.

"Dear, who is that girl?" the woman asked, surprised.

"She bumped into me because she was dazed. She apologized already," the girl shrugged.

The two watched as the slender figure grew smaller in the distance. For some reason, they couldn’t take their eyes off her retreating form.

"Daddy, Mommy, what are you looking at?" the girl asked.
