    Chapter 642: A Blurry Future

    Li Hui parked the vehicle. This car was a contraption crafted with mechanisms and incorporated refining techniques. In his eyes, it was flashy but impractical, yet to others, it appeared remarkable.

    “It’s the modified Dream Shadow 3000! Oh my God! I’ve never seen a real one before; this is the first time I’m looking at it in person.” Many young people gathered around, excitedly observing the car.

    Whenever someone spotted the Dream Shadow 3000, they would be in awe for quite a while. Rumor had it that the modified version, crafted by a master, had quickly become the obsession of the young elite in the mega city, almost becoming synonymous with money, status, and wildness. It was no wonder the crowd reacted enthusiastically.

    Li Hui was unaware of all this. He chose a car primarily for its speed, and it also needed to have space. As long as it met those two criteria, he was satisfied. In his view, the real expensive items were the materials for talisman-making connected to time force. He bought this car simply for moving.

    When he returned home, Xiaolu’s twelfth sister was vigorously scolding a mischievous child, hitting them while lecturing, “Why are you so disobedient? How dare you steal the herbs your uncle bought for your aunt!”

    “Hubby.” Xiaolu dashed over like the wind. She should have been happy these days, yet she felt restless not seeing her husband.

    Li Hui wrapped his arm around Xiaolu’s waist and secretly checked her pulse to see how her training was progressing.

    This glance brought him surprise: “Hmm? She has consolidated her foundation step by step. Even though she doesn’t possess a special bloodline or a spiritual body Dao body, why does this physical body seem as if it has been tempered by countless trials? Could it be that the bloodlines of one generation dilute all special bloodlines and spiritual body Dao bodies for the masses? No, it’s not that simple. Others practice the cultivation method I gave them to reinforce their foundations, but can they attain such progress as Bai Xiaolu?”

    As Li Hui immersed himself in the Extreme Huan Continent, instead of unraveling the mysteries, he actually found himself facing even more enigmas, indicating he was still far from the core!

    Bai Xiaolu blushed and whispered, “Twelfth sister is still watching!”

    This time, the twelfth sister noticed, tugging on the mischievous child’s ear as she said, “Let’s go outside, I’ll discipline you again. Three days without punishment, and you’ll feel bold enough to steal!”

    Once the room quieted down, Xiaolu lay in Li Hui’s arms and sighed, “It’s really overwhelming. My sister is too difficult; no wonder she doesn’t win over my brother-in-law.”

    Li Hui waved his hand, and all items in the room floated up, startling Bai Xiaolu, who covered her mouth, almost gasping in shock.

    “Hubby… how did you do that?”

    “Just a little trick; you can do it too.” Li Hui casually replied, “Let’s see how many things are worth taking. We are going to settle in Sanjiu City, and your sister…”

    Just then, Bai Xiaolu leaned in and kissed him, their lips meeting.

    Li Hui felt a loud “boom” in his mind, as if struck hard, and saw many blurry images of light and shadow. Bai Xiaolu was dead, and he was rampaging through the Extreme Huan Continent, ultimately jumping into a deep well to bury his beloved woman.

    The scene changed again, and he vaguely saw Yan Lu from the Heavenly Hero Sect on the Ren Water Continent appearing to catch a blood robe-wrapped baby, looking curiously at the sky and then at the baby in her arms.

    “Pfft…” Li Hui coughed up blood uncontrollably, suffering significant damage to his Chaotic Dao Body and Legal form.

    “Ah! Hubby, what’s wrong?” Bai Xiaolu turned pale with fright.

    “Cough, cough, it’s nothing. I’ve been a bit radical in my training lately, so I ran into a little problem. I’ll adjust soon,” Li Hui said as he took out a cracked blue ruler from the treasure of the Crystal Palace, holding it above his head. It emitted golden flowers and purple mist that cascaded down. This ruler was a rare treasure that soothed the mind and suppressed injuries.

    Seeing her husband’s complexion improve, Bai Xiaolu felt slightly relieved, but she still worried that he was hiding something important from her.

    Li Hui fell into deep thought: “Would I go against all of Extreme Huan for Bai Xiaolu? Unless she is my partner. The key is that the well I jumped into is very special, imbued with strong reincarnation meaning. Why did I see Yan Lu at the end of the vision? The baby she caught couldn’t be Yang Jiuzhen, could it? Does Bai Xiaolu have a connection with Yang Jiuzhen?”

    “Hubby, what are you thinking? If something is wrong, you must tell me. Don’t bear it alone. I am your wife; we are stronger together!” Bai Xiaolu said seriously, tightening her fist.

    “Ha, I think it’s more like brothers are stronger together, right?”

    “Ah! You can still laugh? Quickly calm down and stay here!” Bai Xiaolu curiously glanced at the blue ruler hovering above her husband’s head and said peculiarly, “Before we married, whenever you wanted to get close to me, something unexpected would happen—someone would call you, or there would be a sudden fire. A fortune teller said your fate is as thin as paper and can’t bear me; only marriage would help, so we rushed into it. Who would have thought that on our wedding day, you were called away by the mine owner? There was a mining accident at the mine, and you almost didn’t make it back. Today is even more exaggerated; I just… just kissed you, and you spat blood! What should we do?”

    Li Hui reassured her, “Once I recover, we can try again.”

    “Bad guy, you just know how to bully me.” Bai Xiaolu cautiously leaned closer to her husband, saying, “Father spent a long time talking to me this afternoon, hinting that he just reached the city’s regulatory office in Sanjiu City and hasn’t settled in yet. He hopes you can help him.”

    “Your father?” Li Hui realized, “Has he seen the household registration application? To be able to help him, he must at least become a mine owner, right?”

    “I don’t know; he didn’t say much. He only told me to find a place to stay in Sanjiu City first. To my surprise, Uncle Da is also going to Sanjiu City. He is responsible for building the residences. He has always been friendly with Father, so renting a place from him should be fine,” Bai Xiaolu said excitedly, viewing everything as perfect.

    Li Hui shook his head, “Who said we are renting? Upon arriving in Sanjiu City, we’ll buy the most luxurious residence, creating the best conditions for your practice. So, beautiful wife, quickly pack your things! The car is waiting outside, and we will set off in half an hour. I’ve already found the mine in Sanjiu City. The sooner we start, the sooner I can become a mine owner, and you’ll get to hold your head high among your brothers and sisters.”

    “So soon?” Xiaolu felt overwhelmed by the rapid changes lately.

    “Yeah, just like that.” Li Hui smiled warmly at Xiaolu packing her belongings, but deep inside, a green Dao Fruit surged and fluctuated, much like being caught in a great storm. Millions of runes intertwined, and countless Dao Principles spread, prompting him to start deducing the blurry images he just saw.

    “This isn’t good! The waters of the Extreme Huan Continent are deep and unfathomable. Where is that reincarnation well? From today onward, all my actions and thoughts must be deeply considered. I must exhaust every possibility and explore the elusive Dao to transform passivity into initiative.”

    With a loud “bang,” Xiaolu’s twelfth sister stumbled into the room, carrying a pile of items, and awkwardly smiled, “Hehe, I brought too much. The car outside is my brother-in-law’s, right? Father generously gave me a month off, and since I have nowhere else to go, I’m willing to accompany and take care of my sister.”
