Chapter 316 - 316 Shun Fang's decision
''Father, mother, do you want to come with me to the 'Cultivation world'? You don't have any more reason to stay here. Our house is destroyed and the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom' itself will be abandoned before another war starts over its territory.''
Turning his head to look at Liu Mei, Shun Long finally smiled lightly for the first time since he arrived in the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', and holding her hand he looked at his parents and said
''This is my wife, Mei'er. She and I have been together for almost a year. If you come with us, we can travel the world together!''
There was a gleam in Shun Long's eyes as he looked at Shun Fang and Shun An.
Originally, he wouldn't have minded letting his parents in the 'Mortal world'.
After all, Shun Fang was certainly strong enough to protect himself and Shun An against almost any threat in this place.
Who could expect that things would really take such a turn for the worst due to Dong Weifeng and his son?
However, this was also a chance in itself.
If Shun Long could have his parents travel with him, he could ensure their safety in the future.
Additionally, Shun Long knew that right now, it was impossible for him to help his parents with their cultivation now that their dantians had been destroyed, but it wasn't impossible in the future.
If he had his parents with him, he would be able to help them recover their cultivation as soon as he found the necessary medicinal ingredients that he needed.
As Shun Long waited for their answer, he saw Shun Fang and Shun An watching Liu Mei with bright eyes.
If one judged her simply based on her outer appearance, there was indeed nothing to criticize about her.
She was a gorgeous and yet reserved young woman, who didn't let many of her feelings show to her face. This was most likely part of her character and not Liu Mei intentionally suppressing herself in front of them... Shun Fang thought as he kept examining his daughter-in-law!
Liu Mei's face turned somewhat red as she wasn't used to this, and looking at Shun Fang and Shun An who were staring at her with zeal in their eyes, she bowed and greeted them politely
''Father-in-law, mother-in-law!''
''HAHAHA! Long'er! Your father is proud of you! You finally have a wife!''
Although Shun Fang's words were few, they expressed exactly what he wanted to say. He was very satisfied with his daughter's-in-law manners, appearance and strength.
After all, both he and Shun An had seen Liu Mei summon her white skeletons that had completely suppressed Wei Tai and the rest to the point that they were just one step away from death.
''And it's one who's much gentler and polite than that Lin girl.''
As she finished speaking, Shun An held Liu Mei's hands and looked at her daughter-in-law with a gentle smile on her face and a satisfied look in her eyes.
At the same time, Shun Long smiled before his eyes fell on Shun Fang as he waited for his answer.
Turning his head to look at his son, Shun Fang however shook his head before he declined Shun Long's prior offer without any hesitation
''Long'er, your mother and I will both stay in the 'Mortal world'!''
Shun Fang's answer was actually completely different to what Shun Long had expected.
Since their Shun estate was destroyed and his father's and mother's cultivation was crippled, wouldn't that mean that they were even weaker than normal people?
After all, even most children in the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom' started to train their qi at the age of 13, and Shun Long knew that the other kingdoms weren't any different.
Looking like he had guessed Shun Long's thoughts, Shun Fang had a bright smile on his face as he patted Shun Long's shoulder and said
''Long'er, if I wanted to enter the 'Cultivation world', I would have long since joined the 'Floating Cloud sect'. Even if I didn't become an inner disciple, I would have at least become a normal Elder by now.
However, entering the 'Cultivation world' was neither mine nor your mother's goal.
Choosing to live a simple life, without any worries, away from the strifes of cultivators in the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', was what we were originally planning.
However, even without the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom', there are other kingdoms where we can go and meet new people.
We can also have a fresh start and won't have people to rely on me being a Heaven grade expert to help them.
Going with you to the 'Cultivation world'? Aside from being a burden to our son, what else would we do there?''
Seeing that Shun Long wasn't entirely convinced, inside the 'Stone of Time', Little Black nodded his head as he said to Shun Long
''Master, Shun Fang is right. Although their cultivation was destroyed, they can still live their lives.
However, if they followed master in the 'Cultivation world', they would then feel hopeless and weak.
Although master's parents suffered, they can certainly start a new life, away from the war of the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom' now and travel to a new place.''
Shun Long shook his head when he heard Little Black's words.
How could he have not thought about these things by himself already?
However, leaving his parents without any protection was still an unpleasant feeling.
For a moment Shun Long even thought of taming a rank 4 magic beast to protect Shun Fang and Shun An, but that would still go against Shun Fang's wishes of living a simple life.
After all, no matter what, a rank 4 magic beast would certainly make every single Heaven grade expert in this mortal island afraid.
Even the sect master of the 'Floating Cloud sect', Liu Jian, wasn't certain if he could fight an early rank 4 magic beast head-on.
Without another word, Shun Fang walked through the Shun estate and gathered some of his personal belongings in a small c.h.e.s.t, along with some gold and silver, before he once again sat on Little Silver's back.
Understanding that there was no more reason for them to stay here, Shun Long, Shun Fang and Shun An, all threw one more look at the destroyed 'Blue Forest city' from the sky, before the black panther's body flew forward like a bolt of silver lightning, as it tore through the sky, as Shun Long searched for a new place for his parents to settle down.
Less than a minute later, the black panther had stealthily arrived in the sky above a city located near the vast sea that surrounded this 'mortal island'.
It was a large city, more than 3 times bigger than the 'Sky Fortune Kingdom's' imperial capital itself, while its harbor was completely filled with big and small sh.i.p.s, that ranged from fishermen sh.i.p.s, all the way to big warsh.i.p.s.
It was the 'Roaring Waves Kingdom'.
