The Night King: The Asura
Ch-242's chat. The sacrifice of a sister
Huise and the others were finally able to sigh in relief after Jia Zhen opened his eyes, yet that worry had still not disappeared completely, because now, Jia Zhen's state looked extremely weak.
"Let me alone" Zhu Ling said, then used her thigh as a pillow for Jia Zhen, then channeled life energy onto him.
The affection shown by Zhu Ling was undeniably that of a mother to her own child, although she knew that Jia Zhen was the son of her Master, but in her heart, Zhu Ling had already considered him as his own child.
As well as her two brothers, Zhu Ling also helped out when Luo Ning gave birth to Jia Zhen, but what distinguished her was that, Zhu Ling was instantly attracted to Jia Zhen the moment she was born.
The interest grew with Jia Zhen's growth, often even Zhu Ling wondered if Jia Zhen was his son, but again, again, he realized that Jia Zhen was his Master's son and that was the reality.
Unknowingly, Zhu Ling shed tears as she looked at Jia Zhen who was lying weakly, her tears dripping down onto Jia Zhen's forehead, making her wake up and open her eyes.
"I'm sorry, Young Master" Zhu Ling said, then wiped away her teardrops on Jia Zhen's forehead.
Jia Zhen smiled, then gently stroked Zhu Ling's cheek, "Mother" she said softly.
Zhu Ling gasped in shock at Jia Zhen's words, there was a sense of hilarity and happiness stirring in his chest when Jia Zhen called him "mother", so that his tears poured down again.
As for the others, they also felt the happiness that now enveloped Zhu Ling, even the usually loud Lang Diyu, along with her tears, but she immediately threw away her face so as not to be seen by the others.
"It's weird, I don't know what I had last night" Heilong said.
"Why indeed?" ask Yin Ouyang.
"Sister, don't you see that third brother is crying?"
Heilong's words suddenly made the others set their sights on Lang Diyu, and sure enough, on his cheeks there were still traces of tears.
"What!?"
"It's nothing!" du Fang Ren.
Heilong walked over to Lang Diyu, then grabbed onto his shoulder, "Third brother, just admit you're crying."
Lang Diyu removed Heilong's hand from his shoulder, "What do you mean, boy!?"
"Well?" Heilong frowned, "Sister, I am an adult, why call me a boy? And it should, brother..."
"Shut up, boy!"
"I'm not a kid!"
"Then what do you want, you fucking boy!"
Jia Zhen chuckled softly at the mannerisms of the two uncles, the sound of his laughter that sounded like being held back, successfully stopping Lang Diyu and Heilong who were about to get into a fight.
"I'm sorry, Young Master!" say both.
"It's okay uncle, I'm happy that you guys always try to comfort me" Jia Zhen said.
"It's getting dark, we should rest here, at least until Young Master's condition improves!"

First dimension.
"sister"
Xie Ling who usually always locked herself in her mother's room, now even out to meet her brother in the palace courtyard, this appearance had made Xie Long shocked, because it was not usual for his sister to leave their mother.
"Ling'er, if you're here, then who's looking after mom?"
"There's a grandmother there" Xie Ling replied, then sat down next to her brother.
"Sister, I want to say something" he said after sitting down and remaining silent for a long time.
Xie Ling let out a long sigh, then explained if she had met their grandfather in her dream, she also explained about the legacy that Yuan Long left for her.
In addition, Xie Ling was very confident that her brother had the same thing, even though the legacy left by their grandfather was different, but in essence, Xie Ling was sure that Xie Long also got the inheritance.
"Ling'er, what exactly do you want to tell brother?"
"Sister, mother's condition has begun to improve and I think I'm enough to take care of mother."
"You mean?"
"I want big brother to go finish that exam, at least, one of us should get grandfather's inheritance, so that grandfather doesn't get disappointed."
Xie Ling had already thought things through well, and she decided not to clear the exam to obtain her grandfather's legacy, as all she thought about now was her mother alone.
"Ling'er, I don't..."
"Sister, I beg you, don't let grandfather be disappointed in us."
"I beg you, brother. Let's just say brother did it for me" he continued.
Xie Long sighed softly, he was completely confused and did not know what to decide, on the one hand, he did not want to leave his mother, especially with his current state.
But on the other hand, Xie Long also did not want to let his sister down. Moreover, Xie Long was sure that his sister had thought about all this a long time ago, because there was no way he would just give up his inheritance.
"Sister."
Xie Long let out a long sigh, "Alright, I'll do it for you."
Xie Ling smiled then hugged the twin tightly, "Thank you, sis."
Although there was a smile engraved on his face, but in his heart, there was a sense of sadness that he had to endure. After all, his sister had already sacrificed for him, so he had to obtain the inheritance so that his sister would not be disappointed.
"So calm down, I will definitely take good care of my mother" Xie Ling said.
"I believe you, Ling'er."

Two days later.
Xie Long was now preparing to return to the Sacred Land. Actually he still did not want to leave the Underworld, but because his sister always urged him, Xie Long finally agreed to leave immediately.
However, on his way this time, Xie Long had only left with Xiao Xue, while Huanran, Xie Long had asked him to stay in the Underworld, instead, so that his lover can take care of his mother also accompany his sister who will certainly be very lonely.
"Ling'er, Xiao Hua, take good care of your mother" Xie Long said, then turned to Xiao Xue's twin, "And you're Xiao Xie, your job is to look after them!"
"Okay, Young Master!" xiao Xie replied.
"Sister, take good care of yourself, and make sure you get through all those tests."
"You take it easy, I will definitely pass all the tests!"
"Zilong, whatever happens, come back safe."
Xie Long smiled then walked over to Huanran, "Take care of mom."
After saying goodbye to everything, Xie Long then climbed onto Xiao Xue's back. Then, Xiao Xue who had changed her form into a black Phoenix, instantly brought Xie Long flying away from the royal palace of the Underworld.
"Sir, are we going straight to the Holy Land?" asked Xiao Xue.
"Yes, we should head straight for the Sacred Land!" answer Xie Long.
"Good, Master!"
