Chapter 1339  I am sorry

"The world tree? This is where you were bringing us? You know you could have acted less mysterious, sis. Everyone already knows about this tree, don't they?" Rey teased his sister with a grin. "You just wanted some attention, didn't you?"

"Idiot. Shut up. You were gone for five years. What do you know?" Alex gave him a glare before turning to Liam.

The group had only just arrived at the world tree, at the demarcation between the living and the dead, and she was pretty sure no one knew just how much everything had changed and most of all this tree.

Deciding to pay back for the earlier foolish words, Alex pushed her brother forward. "Go try to enter that thing." She pushed Rey right into the barrier that was s.h.i.+mmering in front of them, making the tree completely invisible.

Argh! The next second Rey was instantly thrown back out, landing on his a.s.s. It was not really painful but it was funny enough to get a chuckle from everyone. "What the f.u.c.k, sis? I am coming from a prison you know!"

Lan Deming silently rolled his eyes because only he and Madan knew what Rey had been up to in their so-called prison in his leisure time but he did not say anything.

"Alright. My bad. The tree only allows those who are on the verge of some sort of breakthrough into the barrier. I figured you were on the cusp of one." Alex shrugged and chuckled. "Well, long story short. The world tree has grown a lot. It has also become a lot more sentient. It will only allow certain people to come near it. What's so special about going near it? It's f.u.c.king amazing is what it is."

"There is some sort of weird atmosphere around the world tree which makes everything so much clearer. Your skills improve. Your insights improve. I gained my first dao seed by training near the world tree."

"Maybe this is the real purpose of a world tree. To help the mortal civilians progress in their path and have a fighting chance when this world is completely opened up. Liam, check it out for yourself."

Liam nodded and stepped inside. Everyone watched as Liam casually entered the world tree barrier without any problem. Following him, Luna stepped into the barrier easily too.

"Make way plebeians." The fox strutted forward.

"Huh?" Rey raised a brow and Alex's face twitched. "Don't ask. Too many things changed in these last five years. I think she is in her teenage years or maybe going through p.u.b.erty. Who the heck knows what happens with a fox? I just steer clear of her highness."

If Liam was asked to choose between his wives or his fox, Alex honestly did not know who Liam would pick. But she knew enough to not want to play that game.

While the rest of the group casually chatted, Liam entered the barrier along with Luna. "Master, this atmosphere is indeed very helpful. I have also made some breakthroughs."

Liam nodded at the fox as he stared dazedly at the tall plant in front of him. It still had the mosaic pattern of green and black, representing the collision of life and death.

Even growth-wise there wasn't much difference between the last time he had seen the plant and now but its presence on the other hand was completely different.

It exuded an ancient aura which was the same type of aura he had experienced from the other world tree from the elven world. The intensity of the aura was naturally different considering the age gap between the two trees but the feeling was unmistakably there. It was as if Liam was gazing into something profound and mysterious, something that was fated to elude all the living beings.

In a single glance, he was completely enamored by the feeling when a searing pain jolted him awake. He instantly snapped out of it and hurriedly stepped out of the barrier of his own volition.

"Master, what happened?" Luna worriedly ran behind him.

"Nothing. I am just tired is all." Liam gave her a smile and patted her head. He first needed to recover from the backlash of using Soul Splice before the wound became any worse. He was not going to repeat his mistake again.

He again took a look at the s.h.i.+mmering barrier and the clear divide that split the land into two, one with life and another teeming with death energy. It looked like there was really a lot he needed to catch up on.

Now that his soul was healed it was high time he turned his focus on the many urgent things that he needed to pay attention to. One of which was this world tree and the stability of their world.

"I will come back here later. If you want you three can stay here or do whatever you want. Luna and I will be going back to the guild base. Alex, take me to my sister."

"Right." Alex nodded. She then awkwardly threw a glance at Shen Yue and excused herself. "Yue will take you to your sister if you don't mind. I will stay here with these guys and see if they need any help."

"What? No need? We can all return with Luna. How else are we going to-" Alex shushed Rey and unceremoniously and even pushed him into the barrier once again to make him shut up.

"This is so not cool, sis."

Liam ignored the bickering siblings and climbed on Luna, letting out a sigh. He glanced at Shen Yue who had been weirdly silent all this time and only now realized that something was probably going on with her.

"Yue, come here." He called her over and Shen Yue silently walked towards him. Shen Yue was a very beautiful woman and after the body cleansing her looks had become even more enthralling, giving a dangerous seductive vibe that would be hard to not submit to. However, today, her beauty was different. It was gentle and kind but there was also sadness. Something was off and Liam could feel it. Without wasting any more time, he brought her somewhere alone to talk to. "What happened?"

"I am sorry." Shen Yue opened her mouth and then tears started falling from her eyes.
