 Chapter 2266: When His Face is Thick, It's Really Thick

Suddenly hearing Lin Moyu's voice, Yu Qingrou quickly came back to her senses.

The next second, her figure disappeared, entering the deep space.

Lin Moyu was already in the deep space, as if waiting for her.

A smile blossomed on Yu Qingrou's face. Upon seeing Lin Moyu, her mood inexplicably became exceptionally good.

She looked at Lin Moyu carefully, "How did you come here?"

Lin Moyu smiled and said, "I came to see you."

Yu Qingrou felt warmth in her heart, "Is that all?"

Lin Moyu didn't answer directly, but instead spoke of other matters, "Do you know that coming here this time is actually dangerous?"

Yu Qingrou smiled and said, "Of course I know. It's better that I come than the elders."

"And even if I'm in danger, you'll definitely protect me."

She seemed very confident, knowing that Lin Moyu wouldn't let her die.

The first two gifts were both a show of strength and weakness. If the Human Race turned hostile, there was indeed a possibility they might keep her here.

Lin Moyu asked, "What did my sister say to you?"

Yu Qingrou's small face suddenly turned red, "Don't you know?"

Lin Moyu said, "You don't need to take her words too seriously."

Yu Qingrou frowned, her eyes seeming to flare with anger, "Are you saying that what she said was all false?"

Lin Moyu sighed, "That's not it. It's just that some things, she didn't explain clearly."

"What things?" Yu Qingrou stared at him with wide eyes. She seemed to be waiting for an explanation from Lin Moyu.

Lin Moyu said, "You know, I come from a small world. In our small world, people start families quite early. I have wives, and more than one."

Lin Moyu explained about his four wives, and Yu Qingrou's tightly knitted brows unconsciously relaxed.

Her gaze softened, Yu Qingrou looked at Lin Moyu, even feeling a bit of pity for him.

Her voice became low, "So that means, you need to reach Heavenly Venerable to reverse fate for them."

Lin Moyu said, "Yes, at least Heavenly Venerable, but Heavenly Venerable is very difficult."

How difficult Heavenly Venerable was, it was simply unimaginable.

Forget about Heavenly Venerable, even Supreme was incredibly difficult.

The Star Sky Fish Race hadn't produced even a half-step Supreme in so many years. Heavenly Venerable was something they didn't even dare to think about.

Yu Qingrou said, "The clan leader once said, with all divine paths broken, it's impossible to reach Supreme in the great world, unless..."

Lin Moyu shook his head, "Although the divine paths are broken, the path to Supreme isn't completely cut off. I'm confident about reaching Supreme, but Heavenly Venerable is still out of reach for now."

"Moreover, the great world is about to experience a catastrophe. In this catastrophe, life and death are uncertain."

"If we're lucky, the great world might survive. If we're unlucky, we'll all die."

Yu Qingrou was greatly shocked, "What catastrophe?"

Lin Moyu said, "There's a world that's about to collide with the great world. The two worlds will engage in a great war, a fight to the death."

Lin Moyu didn't conceal anything. They had discussed this before and had decided to tell the Star Sky Fish Race about this matter soon.

This catastrophe concerned the entire great world. As a part of the great world, the Star Sky Fish Race couldn't stay out of it.

If the great world wins, they can continue to live.

If the great world loses, they will die all the same.

The Human Race didn't want the Star Sky Fish Race to help them do anything. They just wanted them to know about this matter. As for what they would do, the Human Race didn't care.

It was likely that the clan leader and elders of the Star Sky Fish Race weren't fools. They would know what to do.

Yu Qingrou looked at the colorful space turbulence in the deep space, murmuring, "No wonder he wanted us to..."

She suddenly turned her head to look at Lin Moyu, "What do you think?"

At this moment, Yu Qingrou's gaze was very firm. She seemed to have made a decision.

Their eyes met, and Lin Moyu's gaze gradually became firm as well. "And there's one more thing that needs to be clarified. Besides the four wives, I also have a lover in the great world."

"If you're willing, I'll handle the other matters."

Lin Moyu finally made up his mind. Dragging things out wasn't a solution. It was better to make a clean cut.

He wasn't skilled in matters of emotion. It was a tangled mess that couldn't be cut cleanly, so it was better to make a swift decision.

Yu Qingrou stared at Lin Moyu for a long while before uttering two words, "Six?"

Lin Moyu thickened his face and admitted, "Six."

Yu Qingrou asked, "If I don't agree, what will you do?"

Lin Moyu said solemnly, "Then I can only say that we two are not fated. I won't force you."

Yu Qingrou asked again, "If it's the clan leader who doesn't agree, what will you do then?"

Lin Moyu said, "Clan Leader Chihbi once made me a promise. If he doesn't want to keep his word, then some things can't be helped."

Yu Qingrou said, "Sister Han said she would beat the clan leader until he agrees."

Lin Moyu also smiled and said, "Believe that she has that ability. A half-step Supreme in her eyes is just a matter of one sword strike."

Yu Qingrou heard that Lin Moyu wasn't joking, and that his words were very serious.

Yu Qingrou sighed, "As a cultivator, I can't go against my heart."

"Who is that girl, and which of us is older?"

Although she didn't answer directly, Yu Qingrou had essentially agreed.

Lin Moyu said, "Her name is Yu Zhu. I don't know which of you is older. You two can decide that yourselves."

Yu Qingrou made a sound of acknowledgment, "Take me to meet her someday."

"Alright."

Now that things were settled, Lin Moyu wasn't the kind of person to be indecisive.

When his face became thick, he could disregard all worldly principles.

Sometimes, Lin Moyu felt that this was quite enjoyable, being able to do whatever he wanted.

He also thought of what Bai Yiyuan had once said, that in this world, having a strong enough fist is the principle.

Thinking about it now, it was indeed so. Whether in the small world or the great world, or even outside the great world, all rules were fake. It only mattered whose fist was strong enough.

Yu Qingrou nestled in Lin Moyu's arms. The two chatted for a long time in the deep space. Yu Qingrou told him about the things that had happened in the clan over these years.

This included the change in attitude of the entire Fish Race towards the Human Race.

Lin Moyu also told her about some of the things he had done, battle after battle.

Lin Moyu's experiences were far richer than Yu Qingrou's. Yu Qingrou listened entranced, while also worrying for Lin Moyu.

The next day, a beam of light shot out from the Divine City, transforming into a starry road in space.

The voice of the Human Emperor's network rang out, "Everyone, please step onto the light and enter the Divine City."

Yu Qingrou led the eight people onto the light, which carried them towards the Divine City.

Holy Venerable Hao led them on a tour of the Divine City.

The Divine City was as large as a galaxy, so it was naturally impossible to walk through all of it. They could only take a cursory look at a part of it.

They only saw the outskirts of the Divine City and were not allowed to enter the core area.

Many humans lived in the Divine City, all of whom were geniuses with realms above Divine Venerable.

Throughout the Divine City, humans were cultivating everywhere. There were arena after arena, with people engaging in martial arts on them.

Just looking at the Divine City, one could feel the current state of the Human Race - vibrant and flourishing.

The young people of the Fish Race saw this and realized that the situation of the Human Race was completely different from what they had imagined.

They had thought that after regaining control of the starry sky, the Human Race would become complacent.

After all, with no enemies, even if they were cultivating, they should take some time to rest.

Yu Qingrou initially had similar thoughts, but after Lin Moyu's explanation yesterday, she understood.

The Human Race was preparing to face new enemies, more terrifying enemies.

"I hope this time, the clan leader can make the right choice."

In her view, all the previous choices had been wrong.

When the Human Race was at war with the Hundred Races, they should have taken a side and stood with the Human Race.

If it had been like that, their relationship with the Human Race should have become very good.

They wouldn't have had to come bearing gifts, showing strength yet also weakness, which looked somewhat ridiculous.
