Chapter 1558 Everything in Place

“So many gifts. Thank you, uncles.” Mengmeng thanked them sweetly.

“Ahem, ahem.”

Yue Xiaonao said, “We are kids as well. Why did you merely give gifts to Mengmeng? What about us? Can’t you see the three of us here?”

She, Nina, and Felina were also watching from the side.

“Ahem.”

Elder Bai straightened his clothes and said, “I suddenly remembered something. I have to hurry up. I’ll go first.”

Swoosh!

With that said, he prepared to flee.

“All right, all right. Let’s stop joking around.”

Ning Chen said, “Of course, I’ve prepared the gift for you. Here. It’s our first meeting. This is my gift for you.”

These nine experienced elders had lived for over a thousand years.

They had naturally come prepared.

They took out their gift boxes one after another. Of course, the treasures in the boxes were definitely different from what Mengmeng had been given.

If it were only Mengmeng, they would definitely not have prepared such gift boxes.

“Thank you, everyone.”

“Thank you, seniors.”

Yue Xiaonao, Nina, and Felina also thanked the elders.

Among them, Yue Xiaonao was the most satisfied and the happiest.

Ning Chen put his arm around Zhang Han and said, “I’ll ask my men to prepare wine and meat. Let’s have a good drink.”

Seeing this, Yue Wuwei had a slightly strange look on his face.

It seemed that those elders were all former brothers of Zhang Han.

“There’s no rush.”

Zhang Han shook his head slightly and said, “Let me introduce him to you. This is Yue Wuwei, Elder Yue. He is a very powerful senior. And now we can only rely on him to take you away.”

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

Ning Chen and the others looked at each other, stopped joking around, and saluted Yue Wuwei with a serious look.

“Greetings, Senior Yue.”

Yue Wuwei looked calm, like an immortal. He waved his hand lightly and said, “We’re on the same side. You don’t need to be so courteous.”

“This is Lisa, the wife of Elder Yue. This is Yue Xiaonao, their daughter,” Zhang Han introduced.

“Nina and Felina are our good friends,” Mengmeng added.

“Nice to meet you.”

After greeting each other, everyone got on the aircraft.

“We’ll go straight to your Sect Leader and have a talk with him.”

Zhang Han said, “After that, we’ll have a celebratory drink.”

“Okay!”

Ning Chen nodded without hesitation.

There was no need for courtesy between brothers. He rubbed his hands and said, “I’m very nervous at this time.”

“We’ve been in the Illusory Sea Manor for hundreds of years. Finally, it’s time for us to leave.” Elder Bai sighed softly. “In fact, setting aside the fact that the Sect Leader possesses our Life Soul Lamps, he is very kind to us. It’s just that he restrains us. Hanyang, there will be no need for discussion later but action.”

Hearing this, Zhang Han was stunned.

“That’s not right!”

Elder Bai smiled awkwardly and said, “He’s used to saying that. We should try to settle it by peace instead of force. We’ll finish what we started properly in the Illusory Sea Manor.”

“That’s right. We’ll finish what we started.”

Ning Chen took a deep breath and said, “For so many years, we have done a good job in the Illusory Sea Manor. We have no regrets. We can leave safely. Now, we’ll go to the Sect Leader.”

The aircraft adjusted its direction and flew straight to the main hall of the inner court.

It landed on a square.

Ning Chen took the lead and walked down.

“I thought you would come to pick us up in person.” Elder Bai looked at Zhang Han and said with a smile, “What I mean is that you are strong enough to intimidate the Sect Leader in person.”

“That’s what I thought before.” Zhang Han couldn’t help laughing. “It’s only been a few years, but the situation has changed a lot. I just declared war on two sects in the Silver Dragon Galaxy.”

“Holy shit!” Li Shan shouted. “You’re here to recruit us for the fight!”

“Yeah.” Zhang Han nodded.

Li Shan said, “I like it. Who are the enemies? What should we do?”

“They have no powerful background. We’ll fight them head-on,” Zhang Han said.

“Okay!”

The elders didn’t ask any more questions. They all knew Zhang Han very well. Since he could say that, it meant that he was sure to win.

They walked to the entrance of the main hall.

Two guards came up to them.

Ning Chen cupped his hands and said, “We have something to discuss with the Sect Leader.”

“Elder Ning, please wait a moment…”

Before the guard could finish his words, an old voice came from inside.

“Come in.”

Ning Chen and the others looked at each other.

It was the voice of the Sect Master.

They walked into the hall.

It was spacious and resplendent, but there was no one there. It was extremely quiet.

After passing through the hall and coming out of the corridor on the left, they saw a manor, which was antique.

They came to a garden.

Under the tree, there were two chairs. The Sect Master of the Illusory Sea Manor was sitting on one of the chairs, staring at the sea of flowers in front of him.

He looked aged and was in his twilight years.

“You’re here.”

The old man spoke in a flat, hoarse, and low tone.

Without waiting for anyone to reply, he added, “You’re leaving.”

Ning Chen nodded, cupped his hands, and said, “Yes, Sect Master. We’ve been in the Illusory Sea Manor for hundreds of years. Thank you for taking care of us, Sect Master, but we wish to leave. We want to go back for a visit to our hometown and explore the bigger world.”

“I know that.”

The old man turned his head and did not get up. With a casual wave of his hand, some small chairs appeared on the side. “Welcome to my place. Please take a seat.”

Zhang Han didn’t say anything. Yue Wuwei felt that the old man had something to say, so they sat down and waited for him to continue.

“Beautiful little girls, do you want to hear a story?”

The old man smiled and looked at Mengmeng and the others with a trace of kindness between his eyebrows.

Of course, they didn’t know whether his kindness was sincere or not.

“Yes,” Mengmeng answered straightforwardly.

The old man smiled and his eyes fell on the sea of flowers.

“Many years ago, there was a child who grew up in the Beastman Tribe. He was full of wildness. He had never been in contact with human beings. It was not until he came of age that he saw a woman bathing in sunshine and flowers in a sea of flowers in the mountains. He was attracted by her.

“He watched quietly for a long time. On the first day and the second day, she was there. On the third day, he finally stepped into the sea of flowers and got to know her. She was very beautiful.

“In this way, he went to the sea of flowers every day where he could see her. They chatted and laughed. He got to know the outside world. This lasted until a year later when the girl was gone. She left.

“The boy missed her very much. He begged the patriarch to allow him to leave, but the patriarch refused. The boy refused to accept it. It was the first time he went against the authorities, the first time he was punished, and the first time he was locked up for three years. Who could ever have imagined that when he came out, his tribe would no longer exist and be destroyed? He searched with all his might, and finally, his efforts paid off! He found a few scattered tribe members and learned of his enemy. The boy began to work hard on his cultivation.

“He survived countless life-and-death situations and grew up. Thirty years later, he finally took revenge. Just after he got his revenge, he saw that girl again. She was the princess on his enemy’s side. The boy couldn’t bear to kill her and was left alone.

“In the next hundred years, in order to take revenge, the girl went to find trouble with the boy countless times. At first, the boy was very strong. Every time she came to him, he asked her to leave. He admitted that he liked the girl. Until one day, the boy didn’t want things to go on like that. He gave up resisting, but the girl didn’t take action. When her sword stayed an inch in front of his chest, she cried and left. She had loved him one-sidedly for more than 100 years.

“Ten years later, they met again. The boy saved the girl. Letting go of what happened in the past, they got to know each other again and became friends. The girl felt very conflicted. She also liked the boy, but she was unwilling to say yes to him. She even tried to find other Cultivational Partners. But each of them was beaten away by the boy. In this way, decades later, he succeeded in getting together with her.

“This boy dared to love and hate.

“He established a force called the Illusory Sea Manor. ƒ𝑟e𝘦we𝑏n𝑜𝚟𝙚Ɩ. 𝒄𝚘𝐦

“That’s right. This boy is me, the old me.

“For hundreds of years, my Cultivational Partner was taken away by Black Spirit Wizards. For this reason, I stepped into the Galaxy and searched every corner of it. When I was about to find her, she left.

“I hate it that I’m seriously injured and I can’t find her, so I’ve been constantly strengthening the Illusory Sea Manor and searching for talent. I want to kill all the Black Spirit Wizards and bring back my true love!”

At this point, the old man’s killing intent was surging, and he couldn’t suppress it at all. But in the end, he coughed heavily and collapsed into the chair.

He sighed deeply and said, “This is also the reason why I don’t want you guys to leave, Ning Chen. The nine of you are talented enough. Unfortunately, due to the restriction of your Soul Lamps, you still haven’t broken through the Tribulation Stage.

“I’m not a good person, but I’m definitely not bad to you.”

The old man staggered to his feet and fixed his eyes on Zhang Han and Yue Wuwei.

“So, if you want to take them away and get back the Life Candles, promise me one thing. Save my beloved one for me. I don’t have much time left. I only have less than 50 years to live. I wish I’ll get to be with her for 10 years.

“Thus, you’ll rescue her within forty years. If you are able to agree to this condition, you can take them away.”

After that, the old man looked at Zhang Han and Yue Wuwei calmly.

“Alas.” Yue Wuwei sighed softly.

For a moment, he sighed with emotion.

Mengmeng, Yue Xiaonao, Nina, and Felina were all deeply impressed.

For them, it was a love story.

As for Zhang Han and Yue Wuwei, it was not only about love but also a series of growth and fighting.

“You’ve exceeded my expectations.”

All of a sudden, Zhang Han said in a gentle tone, “I thought you would demand an exorbitant price for some resources. I didn’t expect you to make a request that’s harder to fulfill.”

“You can’t agree to it?” the old man said.

“I agree.”

Zhang Han nodded and said, “As long as you can provide me with the information I need, I will help you find her within 30 years.”

“Wonderful!”

The old man got quite excited, and his hands were trembling. “I heard them talk about you. When we were chatting, I eavesdropped and heard that the Immortal Master has been reborn. I believe in your power.”

Ning Chen was speechless.

The elders all had different expressions on their faces.

“Sect Leader likes to eavesdrop on others’ conversations?”

“As for the Soul Lamps…” Zhang Han pondered.

There was a wisp of one’s main soul in a soul lamp. Without it, it would be difficult for one to break through to the Tribulation Stage.

“Here are your Soul Lamps.”

The old man said, “I don’t need anything else. I just need your vow of Great Domain. The vow of an Immortal Master matters more than anything else!”

“Okay!”

Zhang Han was very straightforward. His voice was full of profoundness. He murmured in a low voice and made an oath to the Great Domain.

“Haha!”

The old man laughed heartily and waved his hand, causing nine Soul Lamps to appear.

Hiss!

Ning Chen and the others’ eyes lit up.

They retrieved their respective Soul Lamps and connected them to their main souls.

There came dozens of loud bangs.

When the Soul Lamps shattered and their main souls returned to their bodies, their auras became even more solid.

“On the way here, I heard that you were going to fight in the Galaxy. Well, Ning Chen, you can take your own teams with you and mobilize half of the forces of the Illusory Sea Manor. Go do it. Don’t lose. I can’t afford to lose.”

The old man looked solemn. He took out a jade slip and gently handed it to Zhang Han, saying, “This is the information about my beloved one and the Black Spirit Wizards’ whereabouts. Please do find her.”

“Okay.”

Zhang Han took the jade slip and put it into his Space Ring.

Shaking his head, he smiled and said, “I originally thought that this trip would be difficult, but I did not expect it to be so easy. I cannot guarantee anything, but I can tell you that you’ve made the right choice.”

Mengmeng blinked and said, “My dad is very powerful. Don’t worry, senior.”

“Hahaha.”

The old man laughed, shook his head again, and sat back in his chair.

Ning Chen and the others looked at each other and turned to leave.

When they were about to walk out, they could still hear the old man’s deep voice.

“Those days in the sea of flowers… It was fate…”
