Chapter 423: Release
“So what if you can’t let him go? You have at most one month left with your current condition. Moreover, your condition will only worsen.
“Do you know that in order to treat you, your son was surrounded and beaten by more than ten burly men just because he didn’t have money and stole other people’s medicinal herbs?
“Without you, everything that happened today wouldn’t have happened. Don’t you know?”
It was very strange. This was probably the first time Lian Hua and Nalan Lengling saw Victor being so cold. He explained the truth, but like the sharpest steel knife, he stabbed straight into the woman’s chest.
“Stop talking…” Lian Hua shook her head and tugged at the corner of Victor’s clothes.
“So, your death is actually a relief for this child.” Victor ignored Lian Hua’s advice and directly spoke his mind.
“You’re right. At this point, no one knows my condition better than me, but he’s only seven years old…” The woman laughed bitterly as tears welled up in her eyes as she looked at the young man who kept shoving Victor.
“I can’t leave him alone. So, even if I have to suffer every day and be no different from a dead person, I still have to live in this world.
“I have failed to fulfill my responsibility as a mother. At the last moments of my life, I want to be with him, even if it’s like this.”
“I can understand that you don’t want to leave this child alone in this world. If I had a way to let you stay by his side through another method, would you be willing?”
After laying the groundwork for so long, Victor finally spoke his mind.
He could not save the woman’s life because she was not a cultivator. The methods that Victor had mastered could not be used on her.
Whether it was pills or methods, they could be used under the premise of having a cultivation base.
Forcing the woman to swallow pills would only accelerate her death. Therefore, Victor had to find another way.
Fortunately, the mountain spirit had come up with a feasible plan for Victor, and the only requirement was easy to fulfill.
Only by refining the woman into a spirit soul could she remain in this world and protect her child.
When she heard this, hope reignited on the woman’s face as she looked at Victor.
“This method has a certain level of risk. Moreover, even if it succeeds, you will still die. Even so, are you willing to do it?”
“Yes! As long as I can stay by his side as he grows, I’m willing to do anything!”
“Since that’s the case, Lian Hua, Nalan Lengling, you two take him and leave first.” Victor’s next step was a little cruel. He could not let the child see his mother being killed.
The two girls understood what Victor wanted to do. They nodded and left with the youth.
“Next, I will kill you and extract your soul from your body and refine it into a spirit soul. This way, firstly, you will live a very long life. Furthermore, I will preserve your memories, and the initiative will be in your hands. Secondly, you can increase your cultivation base by devouring souls. However, the matter of devouring souls is still up for discussion.”
“I understand. You can start…”
She would die sooner or later, it was only a matter of time. Through this, she would be freed and her child would not be left alone. It was killing two birds with one stone.
After getting the woman’s approval, Victor nodded and waved his hand. Qi gushed out and filled the entire room. This way, no matter what happened in the room, the outside world would not know.
At the same time, outside the room, the youth stared blankly at the room. Tears could be seen clearly on his face.
“Sister, will my mother die?”
“This…”
This question instantly stumped Lian Hua and Nalan Lengling.
The woman’s death was already a foregone conclusion, but the question was, how should they explain it to this child?
The two women were not Victor. They could be ruthless enough to say such words.
“Your mother may die, but she will not leave you. She will stay by your side in another form.”
After thinking for a long time, Lian Hua rubbed the youth’s head and said.
“Is it a ghost? Will mother become a ghost?”
“Yes…”
Hearing this, the youth fell into silence, but after a long time, he revealed a relaxed smile.
“As long as mother can stay by my side, I am already very satisfied. Sister, thank you.”
“No worries…”
Lian Hua shook her head and tried her best to restrain her emotions, making her voice sound a little calmer.
Not long after, the door finally opened, and Victor walked out with a pale face.
“It’s over?”
“Yes…” Victor nodded, and his voice sounded extremely weak.
“What happened to you?”
“She’s only an ordinary person, and the strength of her soul is limited. When she was refined into a spirit soul, she almost turned into ashes. I had no choice but to devour a portion of my spirit soul to strengthen her. Now that she’s roughly at the third level of the spiritual pedestal realm, it’s enough.”
“To allow an ordinary soul to advance to the spiritual pedestal realm, the number of souls required is an enormous amount. Are you crazy!?”
“It’s better than her going around and killing in order to survive in the future.”
Victor waved his hand and endured the piercing pain between his brows, indicating that the youth could enter.
When the youth saw this, he hurriedly rushed into the room. When he saw that his mother was wearing a long white dress and had returned to her youthful appearance, smiling like a flower, the youth finally heaved a sigh of relief.
“Mother!” The young man pounced on the woman, but he missed her.
“She hasn’t mastered the ability to materialize. You can see her, but you can’t touch her. Also, don’t forget the promise between us. Unless it’s absolutely necessary, you are not allowed to devour the souls of ordinary people.”
“Benefactor, don’t worry. I will definitely keep my promise.”
The woman bowed. When the young man saw this, he also knelt on the ground and kowtowed heavily to Victor.
“There’s no need to kowtow. There are about a thousand spirit stones here. You can go and rent a room. It’s better than rotting here. In addition, the three pamphlets I gave you are for your son’s cultivation. Only when you become stronger will your life be better.”
Victor seemed to be exhausted. He sighed and left with Lian Hua and Nalan Lengling without waiting for the woman’s response.
Victor was about to faint when he walked out of the alley and did not have time to return to the guest room. He had no choice but to bring the two girls back to the Small World.
“I may have to sleep for a few days. Sorry to trouble you girls.”
Victor closed his eyes and fell into a deep sleep.
Lian Hua’s eyes reddened when she saw this scene. She walked out of the wooden house and took the zither.
“I’m sorry, Victor… If I hadn’t meddled in other people’s business… You wouldn’t have ended up like this…”
Nalan Lengling grabbed Victor’s fingertip, feeling guilty.
