Strongest Offline Cultivation-Chapter 78

“No, no, no, I won’t let you succeed.”

The dog roared and swing his paws around. Each time, he creates a massive paw of energy. Those paws were not just massive but also really strong. He planned to kill them before the seal merges with Fu Chen.

At this moment, it was still on his forehead and it was slowly going inside.

Chu Yan clearly noticed those attacks. He frowned at the chains that bound him. Then, he looked at the attacks, he knew these weren’t any ordinary attacks.

He closed his eyes and stood on two feet. At the same time, the giant image of the wolf behind him also followed his steps and raised his hands. His paws closed and he smashed a punch against the giant energy paw.

Bang!

His single punch manage to break the energy paw but there were dozens of them, he continued to punch until he broke every single one of them. But, one actually managed to get away.

Before Chu Yan could punch him, the paw was already above him and Fu Chen. He raised his arms and the giant paw slammed against his paws. The collision of paws didn’t look cute at all. 𝒇𝚛e𝘦wℯ𝑏𝓃𝑜νℯ𝒍.co𝗺

Chu Yan lost strength and was forced to go back in four legs. And, the giant paw smacked his back.

“Gah!”

Chu Yan coughed out blood as he laid down on the ground. At the same time, the white symbol on his forehead started disappearing alongside the giant image of the wolf.

“Hahaha! You are still Middle-Rank in the end. Even if your bloodline ability is good, so what? You will still die.”

The dog’s laughter rang throughout the cave as he slapped his paw once again. Although he couldn’t come down and attack physically due to those chains, he was still able to attack with his energy.

And, as High-Rank Monster, the amount of energy he had was massive. The next paw he used was not just massive but also condensed like a rock. When the paw fell down, a figure dashed next to Fu Chen and Chu Yan.

Wu Kong raised both of his arms and roared.

Bang!

His golden fur swung with the impact and his giant body covered Chu Yan and Fu Chen.

Crack!

His backbone suddenly breaks and his hands as well. He was slowly pushed to his knees. Even though his hands were broken, he didn’t stop holding the paws.

“Why? Why do you keep trying to die for a human? You are a monster. And, he is a human. One day, he will betray you for your own monster core. And, at that moment, you will be left with nothing but regret.”

“A regret that you hadn’t saved him before. A regret that you hadn’t selfishly left your family behind for him. A regret that you believed in him more than your own wife.”

“Stop it now! Take that wolf and I will pretend this never happened. Go away!”

The dog wailed from the air. His tone was filled with anger and hatred. But, he had tears in his eyes.

“You may be right. I might get betrayed by a human. I might be left with nothing but regret. I might cry in silence and spend the rest of my life hiding like you.”

Whoosh! Bang1 𝘧𝓇𝒆𝗲𝓌𝙚𝙗𝓷o𝘷𝒆𝘭.𝐜𝚘𝒎

Suddenly, Wu Kong’s size slowly grew further. The bones that were broken started healing. An intense aura spread around him. This aura was frighteningly strong. He threw the paw away and crashed it on the wall.

Wu Kong raised his hand, pointing his index finger at the dog, and roared.

“But, that human won’t be my brother. The regret I would have wouldn’t be leaving my family or lover behind. I won’t cry in silence and I will never hide from my feelings and truth.”

“I am Wu Kong. I am the Golden Battle Ape, born to fight and die while fighting. The regret I might have would be not fighting for my brother. The tears that I might shed would only be blood. And, I will never hide behind the roof or the clouds.”

“Even if my name is heaven, I will face it head-on, not hiding in the cave-like you.”

At this moment, his aura spread out even more. It was boiling his blood and trembling the ground beneath him.

The dog stared at the ape and spoke.

“You will regret it.”

“I don’t know if I will ever regret helping my brother. Tomorrow is not for me to decide, betrayal is not for me to cause, I live for today. I LIVE FOR BATTLE. FIGHT ME!”

Wu Kong roared and jumped towards the dog. The marvelous red energy condensed at the dog’s paw as he slapped it down with immense force. This paw was just like before, condensed like a real object.

“Eat my rod, damn it!”

Wu Kong roared and held the giant metal rod with both of his hands. He poured all of his strength, and most of his energy into his rod and slam it against the paw.

Bang!

The collision between the rod and paw released intense sparks. But, the paw slowly cracked until nothing remained and Wu Kong’s rod moved towards the dog.

The dog tried to move but the chains around his body were getting stronger. He realized that the seal had already merged with Fu Chen and now he can’t even move.

He stared at the rod blankly and thought ‘Is this how I am going to die? Is this going to be my end?’

At this moment, several imagines appeared in front of him. All of them were dogs but their body sizes and colors were a bit different. And, one image specifically got imprinted on his face.

It was a female dog. She had brown fur and her eyes were brown as well. She wasn’t that fancy but she was the most beautiful girl he has ever met in his life.

On the day he decided to leave her behind, she was crying. She tried to stop him but he didn’t listen. Only at this moment, he realized that not living with her was his biggest regret.

‘I am sorry, Yu’er. If there is a second life, I promise I will never leave you again.’

It has already been ten years. He had already lost his chance. Even if she did love him, her family won’t let her stay for him. She might already have children from another dog.

When the rod reached in front of his face, he slowly closed his eyes, ready to accept his fate. At this moment, he didn’t even struggle to break free from those chains.

“Wu Kong, stop!”

Whoosh! Thud!

Suddenly, a voice rang inside the cave and the rod stopped just a few inches above his nose. He slowly opened his eyes but a powerful blow of wind slammed him to the ground.

“Brother!”

Wu Kong turned around when he saw Fu Chen standing next to Chu Yan. His body instantly returned back to its normal form. The frightening aura around his body also disappeared. He landed on the ground and pounced at Fu Chen’s embrace, hugging him tightly.

“Thanks for protecting me! Take some rest now.” Fu Chen patted his head. He felt warm being hugged by this monkey, his brother from another mother.

Sixteen Years! The only friend he had made were wolves and three of them died. After that, he never made any friends, never had a life and death brother, all this time, he was alone.

But, he never felt alone. His family was still there. His mother and father loved him more than anyone else. This is why he felt really emotional at this moment.

“But, he?” Wu Kong turned around and pointed at the dog who was tied by the chains.

“Don’t worry about him! Just take some rest. You need to heal fast or else, we won’t be able to continue our journey.” Fu Chen smiled and put Wu Kong next to Chu Yan.

At this moment, Chu Yan was also healing but he was already unconscious. He put his hand on Wu Kong and green energy flowed into his body. It started healing his wound quickly.

Then, he turned around and walked toward the dog. At this moment, the dog was just blankly staring at him.

“Betrayal is really hard to bear, isn’t it?”

“What do you know? You humans won’t be betrayed. You will betray others.” The dog screamed at him and looked away.

Fu Chen didn’t say anything. He walked next to the dog and sat down. He looked at Chu Yan and Wu Kong as he spoke.

“I have already betrayed them once.”

The dog’s ear suddenly twitched and Fu Chen continued “They know about it but they still come with me, knowing that they can’t fully trust me. Do you know why?”

“Because when you have no one to rely on, no one to call family, no one to call friends, even a small relationship can make a huge impact. One had talent but got no one to be his friend because of his uniqueness.”

“One lost his talent and everyone left him. And me, I got a gift two months ago but what did I do? I became an idiot who didn’t know how to cherish gifts.”
