Chapter 116 - Three years later

In 2027 AD, the West Pacific War broke out, and the massive solar particle eruption of 2025 triggered global geological instability, with frequent earthquakes worldwide. Japan, amidst the war, faced a rare eruption of Mount Fuji. Other European nations rushed to aid Japan, while the United States transferred nuclear weapons and launch authority to Japan. Despite the volcanic disaster at home, Japan, now armed with nuclear weapons, recklessly pressed forward with a desperate gamble.Three years had passed since White ventured into The Great Void Black Hole. The empathetic Ao Tian, after White and Suōshā vanished, sent a telepathic message across thousands of miles to Enis in the Demon Realm, urging her not to worry. He falsely claimed that White needed to cultivate in the Divine Realm for a few years before returning, soothing Enis's heart with this reassurance.In the Holy Capital of Tianlai, "You're heading over again today?" Qianqian asked Kaia. "Yeah, the new city is finally complete, but there's still a lot to arrange. We can't let Enis handle everything alone, especially since White isn't here. It's tough for her to shuttle between the Demon Realm and the Human Realm," Kaia replied. "Mhm, Kaia and I will be back early today. With world peace now, it's too boring to sit idle," Emily added with a smile."Three years, and you still haven't returned…" Enis murmured to herself, gazing out from the palace window in the new city at the bustling crowds below. Since learning her husband was in secluded cultivation and unable to return, Enis had set aside personal matters and devoted herself entirely to overseeing the new city's construction. This magnificent new capital had risen in the northern part of the Holy Capital of Tianlai, with frequent exchanges between the two cities, even leading to marriages between demons and humans. Emperor Ba deeply appreciated Enis's efforts over the past three years, though he was privately displeased with White's prolonged absence. Still, to spare Enis's feelings, he kept silent.Back on Earth, coastal cities in 2027 were under martial law due to the war's impact, with major cities under military control. Even White's hometown had arranged voluntary evacuations for its citizens. Over the years, White's parents could only exchange small talk with Enis to comfort each other. Now, the elderly couple struggled to survive, forced to relocate to the countryside for safety. "What a disaster. I heard many big cities are being bombed. Will our little town be okay? We even lost the walkie-talkie, so we can't contact our daughter-in-law," White's mother said, blaming herself. "Forget it, they're safer than us now. As long as they're fine, we old folks can face life or death with peace," White's father reassured her.In the vast void of nothingness, White and Suōshā had been trapped for eighty years. No one knew what had happened to them, but the once timid and cowardly young man now carried himself with grace and confidence. "It's time to leave this place, Suōshā," I said confidently to the woman beside me. "Even now, you still won't acknowledge me as your partner?" Suōshā replied, slightly annoyed. "I'm grateful for your companionship and the trials we've faced together. I truly admire who you are, but I'm a married man. Until Enis gives her consent, I won't entangle myself too deeply with other women," I explained, turning to her slowly. "So, you're saying you won't take responsibility for what you've done to me?" Suōshā asked angrily. "Uh, I'm not a heartless man. Once we return, I'll ask Enis if she can accept you and give you a satisfactory resolution," I replied, blushing. "Forget it, just hold on to me. Let's get out of this wretched place." With that, I grabbed her hand, unleashed the move Infinite Void Breaker, shattered the void that had imprisoned us for countless years, and soared toward the Divine Realm.
