In this world, there is no love without reason. Although Mother Earth did not explicitly say so, Jiang Chen understood her meaning—that he should handle the matters at hand with care. And then, once the deed was done, he would undoubtedly reap the benefits.
"All right, we should head back now."
Once they had agreed on their cooperation, Mother Earth gently waved her hand, carrying Jiang Chen with her and leaving the place, returning to the Reincarnation Hall.
"This…"
It was only when his consciousness returned to his body that Jiang Chen was startled to realize it had been his consciousness, not his physical form, that Mother Earth had taken away. And what was most terrifying was that he had only noticed this now.
Perhaps Mother Earth's action held no deeper meaning, but it did indirectly indicate one thing; if she wished, she could extinguish Jiang Chen's life without effort, as easily as blowing away dust.
