Chapter 577: Separation Approaches

Su Che knew well that the Witch God wanted him to hear the so-called good news—that he was willing to change his race and bloodline to fully become a Witch. Of course, he couldn’t agree to this, so Su Che could only remain silent.
The Witch God smiled faintly and continued, “Let’s start with the good news—why I called you all to Thunder Star instead of another planet…”
“Su Che, by chance, I discovered this planet filled with celestial thunder. I realized you have a strong connection to it, and this planet will bring you an opportunity. That’s why I brought you here.”
At this point, the Witch God’s gaze shifted from Su Che to a distant direction. “Of course, since you’re destined for this place, even without my intervention, you would have found it sooner or later. I’m just taking advantage of the situation and advancing the timing a bit.”
“Thunder Star will bring me an opportunity?”
Su Che was surprised inwardly but still felt obliged to express his gratitude to the Witch God properly.
“How you find this opportunity depends on you. If I help you, things might take unexpected turns.”
The Witch God’s words were quite polite, but in truth, he had no responsibility or obligation to help Su Che—unless Su Che was willing to become a Witch and one of his subordinates.
“I’m already extremely grateful. Su Che will surely strive to seize this opportunity,” Su Che said, bowing in thanks.
The Witch God just chuckled and waved his hand. “Don’t rush to thank me. Because next, you’ll want to scold me.”
Su Che’s heart skipped a beat. He knew right away that bad news was coming. Unlikely to be anything other than…
The Witch God’s gaze turned to Tian Yin again, and he spoke gently to her, “With the rise of the Witch race, the Immortal Realm will surely react strongly, and things will be more complicated than I initially thought. Tian Yin, the situation of our race in the Immortal Realm isn’t optimistic. Someone needs to go there to take control.”
“As I thought!”
Su Che’s mind became chaotic. “The Witch God really wants to separate me from Tian Yin. He must be looking for an excuse to send her back to the Immortal Realm and restore her status as the Great Witch.”
Swish!

The Witch God seemed to be able to hear Su Che’s thoughts. His gaze instantly turned cold, and his tone became much stricter. “Su Che, don’t think that I’m using Tianyin to threaten you. I am the leader of hundreds of millions of witches; I wouldn’t act in such despicable ways. Moreover, I’ve always treated Tianyin as my own child and would never use her for any reason whatsoever! You must understand this!”
Su Che felt heavy-hearted and could only nod silently, though he thought to himself, “I hope so.”
The Witch God’s gaze returned to Tianyin, and his expression and tone softened again. “Tianyin, what do you think?”
“I understand. I can naturally distinguish what’s important and what’s not,” Tianyin replied softly, before adding, “But in the Immortal Realm, aren’t there ‘Juli’ and ‘Haogang’ who oversee everything? If I go back, will it be…”
“That’s exactly the problem with them…” The Witch God sighed faintly. “This time, it’s also a test for them. It’s a pity they still disappointed me.”
“Witch God, is the situation serious?”
Since it involved the survival of the witch race, Tianyin couldn’t afford to worry about personal matters and became anxious as well.
After all, in her past life, she had been a great witch who lived for tens of millions of years. Her deep affection for the witch race couldn’t be erased just because she was human now.
If she were truly heartless to the point of forgetting her roots, she wouldn’t be worthy of Su Che’s love.
“It’s not that serious. Everything is within my control. I’ve already made arrangements in the Immortal Realm,” the Witch God said calmly. “However, I do need someone I trust most to carry my orders back to the Immortal Realm, restore order, and take control of the situation. Tianyin, you know that among all the great witches, you are the one I trust the most.”
Tianyin nodded silently, her gaze slightly hesitant before turning to Su Che, filled with a request and appeal.
After all, as his woman, anything she did had to get his approval.
In fact, long ago, during a casual conversation with Su Che, she had already learned that there were also ambitions and struggles for power within the witch race. Moreover, the witch race was warlike, with endless desires for power and glory.
To put it simply, many great witches were ambitious, wanting to reach the peak like the Witch God, or even surpass him.

These days, for the rise of the entire Witch Clan, the Witch God must stay in the Spirit Realm and the Cultivation Realm for long periods, protecting those Witch Clan warriors who roam around plundering souls from interference by certain forces in the Immortal Realm. This, in turn, gives those powerful witches in the Immortal Realm the opportunity to pursue their own ambitions. Under the temptation and manipulation of the interests of the other immortals, some might even resort to extreme acts of betraying the Witch God or even their own race. Tianyin is considered the least ambitious and most loyal among these powerful witches. It is because of these two qualities that she has become the Witch God’s most trusted subordinate. That’s why such an important task as reincarnating and descending to the mortal world to search for the Mi Xian Realm was entrusted to her. If everything in the Immortal Realm were normal and such terrible things did not occur, Tianyin would surely not be needed. But now that the situation everyone hoped to avoid has actually happened, Tianyin must put the greater good first, set aside her personal happiness for the sake of her race, return to the Immortal Realm, regain her status as a powerful witch, and assist the Witch God in restoring order… At this moment, Su Che could easily understand all these reasons based on the conversation between the Witch God and Tianyin. As he was about to part with Tianyin, Su Che naturally felt very sad, but he also knew he couldn’t force her to abandon her beliefs and deep affection for the Witch Clan out of his own selfish desires. Moreover, from Tianyin’s gaze at that moment, Su Che could sense her own willingness—she would gladly do what needed to be done for the Witch Clan, even if it meant being separated from the person she loved temporarily. “Go,” Su Che said softly, trying to keep his voice calm despite the pain in his heart. “Do what you must do.” “I’m sorry.” In front of the Witch God, Tianyin slowly leaned into Su Che’s arms, tears streaming down as she apologized. At that moment, she was filled with remorse and guilt. Even though it was for the sake of the Witch Clan rather than just one person, she still felt guilty as if she had betrayed Su Che. “I hope the person I love can have her own identity, her own ideals, pursuits, and beliefs, rather than just being a puppet who obeys her husband,” Su Che whispered in her ear. “It’s okay. It won’t be long before I go to the Immortal Realm to find you. Even if we’re separated for thousands of years, it’s like just one or two days in the eyes of ordinary people. We can easily endure it, right?” “Mm.”

Other than nodding obediently, Tianyin didn’t know what else to say. The Witch God, standing quietly aside, nodded inwardly, expressing even greater approval and recognition for the destination Tianyin had chosen—Su Che was indeed quite good… From the Witch Clan’s perspective, the Witch God really hoped to bring Su Che into their ranks, as he possessed great fortune. Moreover, his personal opportunities could make the Witch Clan’s plans to rise succeed more smoothly than expected, even years ahead of schedule. This meant his personal fortune could be linked to the entire Witch Clan, bringing immense benefits. Unfortunately, something as intangible as fortune couldn’t be forced; only if he willingly chose to join the Witch Clan could it truly benefit them. Coercion would definitely not work. From a personal standpoint, the Witch God also greatly admired this young man, feeling a strong affinity for him. Even though he was human, that goodwill couldn’t be ignored. Sadly, the boy had a strong psychological aversion to becoming part of the Witch Clan, and it was difficult to change that for now. Only through clever methods could their mindset be gradually altered… “I promised you ten days to reach Thunder Star. Since you’ve arrived five days early, I’ll give you the remaining five days to say goodbye.” A faint smile played on the Witch God’s lips, his words tinged with a hint of teasing. As he spoke, he waved his hand casually, creating a dreamlike, beautiful space within ten miles—like a celestial garden, containing all the most stunning sights in the world… “Don’t worry. No one can penetrate this barrier to spy on you in five days.” The Witch God laughed heartily. Of course, he knew that a very troublesome woman had been following Su Che. But this “troublesome” nature applied only to Su Che. For someone like Fairy Xueyu, who was at the Great Vehicle stage, the Witch God could easily kill her with a thought. Of course, he would never do such a thing. It was actually he who deliberately allowed Xueyu and her group to leave the Spirit Realm and head to the Cultivation Realm to surround Su Che… Inside this magnificent spatial barrier, Su Che and Tianyin stood embrace, silent for a long time. After a while, overcoming her slight shyness, Tianyin whispered in his ear, “Take me.”

Over the years, the two had had many intimate moments, but they were always one step short—because of the persistent presence of that troublesome Xue Yu following them, it was difficult for them to relax to that extent.
Su Che placed great importance on their first time together; he felt it should be like a proper marriage, on a legitimate wedding night, before he could be with her…
This was also his stubborn and traditional side—he could never forget the traditions and customs of his hometown, Cai Shi Town.
“With parting so near, I must surely agree to her!”
The emperor wasn’t in a hurry, but the eunuch was—Lao He urged from the Immortal Prison, “Master, rest assured. I’ll shut off all my senses too and definitely won’t spy on you!”
Su Che seemed not to hear Lao He’s chatter; he just gazed fixedly at the woman in his arms, remaining silent for a long time…
