Chapter 85: Appointment in the Milky Way

hough hatred still lingered in their eyes, both showed a hint of fear.Especially Zhao Fangyuan, having been seriously injured by Lianque in an unsuitable fighting style, if this continues, she's likel...For a long time, all the Lin clan members near the gate tower were silent as cicadas, none spoke, and none moved.

The atmosphere was terribly heavy.

"Could he just be let go like that" Lin Zhengli spoke up, "Just allow a mere ninth-rank wandering meridian cultivator to run amok in the Lin Family"

“Everyone.” Lin Zhengren turned back, saying faintly, “Disperse.”

Everyone left one after another, even Lin Zhengren's father, Lin Duanxing, didn't hesitate. It shows how much prestige Lin Zhengren had in the clan.

Mr. Lin glanced at Lin Zhengli and said, "Zhengli, come help Grandpa back to the house."

Lin Zhengli squeezed out a smile: "Grandfather, why don't you have someone help you back I still have something to tell my brother."

Mr. Lin hesitated for a moment, but finally shook his head and left with the help of attendants.

Soon, the people around the gatehouse were gone, leaving only a few winter leaves dancing in the wind.

"Brother!" Lin Zhengli was filled with indignation: "Are we just going to let this go"

"What else would you do Go chase after him and kill him"

"Our Lin family isn't without masters of the Zhou Tian realm!"

That belongs to the Lin family, not yours.

“I’m not doing this for myself! I’m thinking of the reputation of our Lin family!”

“For our Lin family” Lin Zhengren looked at him with unusual coldness. “What have you done Do you think I don’t know”

You stole Lin Zhenglun's stall but you run it poorly. Grandfather asked you to invite him back, but you humiliated him and even tried to take advantage of the situation! Are you so desperate for women that you can't control your own desires

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"I just want him to see his place and understand what he is!" Lin Zhengli said urgently, "Is this kind of person useful Look today, even grandpa spoke nicely to him, but what's his attitude He still bites back! Has he been fed well Even if Lin family's business goes bad, we can't use him!"

Lin Zhengren pointed at Lin Zhengli and didn't speak for a moment.

"Brother, listen to me, send someone to kill them halfway!" Lin Zhengli said again, "If Jiang Wang doesn't die, where will our Lin family put our face"

Lin Zhengren slapped Lin Zhengli with the back of his hand, sending him sprawling to the ground.

"The Lin family's reputation doesn't matter. My face, Lin Zhengren's, is what matters!"

"But because of you, I was humiliated."

Lin Zhengli lay on the ground, first in disbelief, then anger. He almost jumped up: "You can't beat Zhu Wei, so you blame me Fine! You tie me to Fenglin City and apologize to Zhu Wei, let Jiang kill me! I won't drag you down and disgrace you!"

He rushed to Lin Zhengren's face and shouted with his neck stiff, "You send me there!"

"I warn you!" Lin Zhengren grabbed his neck, lifting him up. "I only warn you this once, my dear brother."

He looked at Lin Zhengli's face, which was gradually turning red due to shortness of breath, and slowly said: "You don't have to pretend to be so shallow, short-sighted, and irritable. Don't put on a show of your immaturity and incompetence in front of me."

The Lin family, since I've given it to you, I won't be taking it back. In your eyes, the vast empire is nothing to me. You needn't hide your talents out of fear of my envy!

He raised his hand, waiting until Lin Zhengli started rolling his eyes before saying, "Did you understand"

Let me know if you'd like to translate something else!

Having said that, without waiting for his response, she simply let go of his hand and turned to leave.

Only Lin Zhengli was left sprawled on the ground, half-kneeling, coughing incessantly.

When I returned to Maplewood City, it was already late at night.

Huang Azhan was waiting for them at the city gate, holding sleeping An'an in his arms.

"You're finally back!" Huang Ajian whispered. "Little ancestor cried all day, I wore out my lips trying to coax him, couldn't soothe him at all! He just wouldn't stop until you came, in the middle of the night, he was finally too tired to cry anymore and fell asleep."

Jiang Wang carefully took An An and said to the others, "You guys go back first. Let's talk about other things tomorrow."

With everyone gone, Jiang Wang returned home with Xiao An'an in her arms to their residence on Pegasus Lane.

He didn't go straight into the house, but instead climbed onto the roof, hanging his legs over the eaves and sitting there.

The night was cool as water, An'an snuggled up in her thin cotton jacket, soundly asleep in her mother's arms. Her eyes were puffy, and even in her dreams, her little mouth was pressed together in sadness.

A five-year-old child is not completely clueless. While their world might be simpler, their sadness can sometimes be purer.

Tonight, Jiang Wang had a rare night off from cultivation. Gazing towards the direction of Fengxi Town, he fell into a daze.

Suddenly, my mind was filled with countless images.

He wasn't unfamiliar with loneliness, but in this moment, he truly realized: in this world, only he and Jiang Anan depended on each other.

Let me know if you have other text you'd like me to translate!

They have no father, and they have no mother.

"Brother…" Annan woke up at some point, she opened her slightly swollen eyes and looked at Jiang Wang's chin and said: "Did you go find my mother"

Jiang Wang was silent for a moment, then said: "Do you remember me telling you about the stars Father is there, and Song's concubine has gone there too."

This is a placeholder for text.

Ann sighed softly, as if afraid of crushing something delicate: "So far."

Jiang Wang suddenly felt a surge of tears. "Yes, so far."

"Brother, will you be able to pick stars in the future" Jiang An'an's eyes seemed to shine, "Mom said that you might become a fairy in the future."

Oh, my goodness...

>

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

Looking at Jiang An'an's little face, Jiang Wang couldn't bear to tell her. The distance between him and the immortals was farther than the distance between them and the stars right now.

She might have thought that on the day she could pick the stars, she would be able to see her parents again. She didn't know yet that some goodbyes are truly forever.

No matter how high one flies, no matter how strong one becomes, there will always be an "forever" that can never be reunited.

“When humans first looked up at the stars in ancient times, they began to reach for them,” Jiang Wang said finally. “Crossing the deepest rivers, climbing the highest mountains, and after there is no path, you create your own ladder... That is cultivation.”

Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Even my brother doesn't know what the end of his cultivation path looks like, but I think that plucking stars and grabbing moons can't be the finish line."

“Then…,” Jiang An’an bit her lip and cautiously asked, “Can I also cultivate”

>

"Of course!" Jiang Wang rubbed her little head.

"Can I fly too"

“Of course!”

"Can I pick stars too"

Please note that the content within " > " is empty. I have translated and returned the tag itself, as requested. Let me know if you have any other text you'd like me to translate!

"Mhm!"

“Can I go pick up Mom and Dad”

“Hmm!”

This is a beautiful lie. Even Jiang Wang herself wants to be deceived by it.

“So, starting tomorrow, besides studying and learning to read, you will also need to recite the Daoist scriptures...”

"No problem!" Ann said with gusto.

"You still need to practice basic martial arts for half an hour, it will be very tiring..."

"An An is not afraid of being tired!"

"Alright then, let's make a promise. When you can pluck the stars and grasp the moon, we'll chase after them together."

Jīang nān clenched her little fist: "Chasing stars!"ore. Following the victorious banners, galloping amidst blood and fire...Fang Yuanyu had many words stuck in his throat, but he was tongue-tied and couldn't say them.Jiang Wang patted him on the shoul...
