“How did you tell? By Breath-detecting Skill?”
Zhang Han found it a little strange.
He was able to sense something just by feeling someone’s aura? According to what Wu Ming had said, he must have honed something like the Breath-detecting Skill.
“I can’t say for sure.”
Wu Ming shook his head repeatedly.
“Anyway, I can feel that you are different, so I was willing to help you. I’m going to stay in the secular world for a few years, so I just wanted to play around and make my presence known. Zhang Hanyang, you are about the same age as me, and also powerful, so that’s why I want to be your friend.”
Zhang Han ignored what he had said.
It was meaningless to flatter him. He had already grown tired of it.
All of a sudden, his expression changed slightly.
He asked, “Do you know Yue Wuwei?”
“Pfft…”
As soon as he asked the question, Wu Ming suddenly spat out a mouthful of baijiu. He looked at Zhang Han with a stunned expression.
“How do you know that old fellow?”
“The Black White Palace Master is a woman.”
Zhang Han narrowed his eyes slightly and said with a smile, “It seems that the second mysterious person you mentioned is probably Yue Wuwei.”
“You’re not the only one who can’t see through him.”
“He is the man of your Palace Master. Since your Black White Palace is in the King’s Domain, is your Palace Master the daughter of someone from the Dark Shadow Clan and a secular martial artist? By right, it is unlikely to be a secular martial artist as it’s too difficult. Maybe it’s someone from the Kunlun Immortal World? Given Yue Wuwei’s personality, if he has a woman, he probably wouldn’t send her to the King’s Domain, unless there are some difficulties. But I’ve never seen anything too difficult for him unless it’s about the Black White Palace Master. He has two bloodlines, and the bloodline of the Dark Shadow Clan makes it difficult for him to leave the Ancient Mine.”
Zhang Han pondered for a while and he had his speculations.
“You, you, you…” Wu Ming’s eyes widened in shock. “You’re a monster!”
It seemed that he had gotten it right.
However, Yue Wuwei already had a family, so why was he always wandering around in the secular world?
Gulp.
Gulp.
“Ah!”
After two big gulps of baijiu, Wu Ming asked, “Zhang Hanyang, you know Yue Wuwei? When did you meet him?”
“Two years ago.
“Yue Wuwei…
“Is very strong,” Zhang Han said in an affirmative tone.
The more he thought about it, the more he could not figure out what was going on.
“That’s indeed the case. There seems to be some secret between him and our Palace Master, but they have never spoken about it. When our Little Princess was born, Yue Wuwei made a trip there. Each time the Palace Master met him, there would be a fight. He would then leave after staying there for three days. When the Little Princess was three years old, he went there once, and then another time when she was six. He would go there every three years. Now the Little Princess is eight years old, so Yue Wuwei will go there again a year later.”
Since Zhang Han had already guessed it, Wu Ming decided to just tell him the truth.
There was still one thing that he did not tell him. Yue Wuwei and Wu Ming would drink a few rounds during each visit. At the same time, he would also refine Wu Ming’s martial arts skills. He cultivated fast, and he could even improve his cultivation while drinking and sleeping. Yue Wuwei was more friendly towards him, and he also taught him a lot of mysterious moves.
Therefore, Wu Ming was the number one among all the younger generation in the entire Black White Palace. He had the strength in a Middle-stage Elixir Realm in the King’s Domain.
On any given day, he could easily break through again while drinking.
“I met Yue Wuwei once more than a year ago. He said he was going to do something,” said Zhang Han.
“Oh, then there are only a few places. It could be in the depths of the Boundless Sea, or at the bottom of the Northernmost Sea.”
Wu Ming said slowly, “There is no place in this world that he can’t go, even heaven or hell. Only he knows what is in the depths of the Boundless Sea. He has been to the Kunlun Immortal Realm and the Bone Devil World. Every time he sees the little princess, he will give her a large number of treasures. I have seen them once. They are really a large number of treasures.”
His tone was filled with sentiment.
“She’s his biological daughter after all,” Zhang Han said with a smile.
Zhang Han could more or less understand the situation, but he just found it a little strange as Yue Wuwei looked as if he was around 70 or 80 years old.
“How old is your Palace Master?” Zhang Han asked.
“Uh, in her forties?” Wu Ming answered with some uncertainty, “You should know that I don’t dare to ask about this. Our Palace Master has a bad temper.”
“It seems that Yue Wuwei has more secrets than I thought.”
Yue Wuwei’s image appeared in Zhang Han’s mind once again.
He could not see through him.
“Anyway, as strength increases, some secrets no longer remain as secrets. There’s no hurry.” Wu Ming thought for a moment before saying, “I don’t have anything else to talk about. I’ll head to the Boundless Sea first and come out after a while. If Yue Wuwei shows up, can you help our Palace Master to bring him out? Don’t worry about resources. Our Palace Master is very rich.”
“Sure.”
Zhang Han nodded.
Wu Ming also broke into a smile. This was the main thing he wanted to talk about.
Now that he had said it, his job here was done.
“Oh, by the way, is it okay for our Little Princess to come out? Her cultivation had just reached the God Realm, and she has never seen such a blue sky.”
“Sure.”
Zhang Han nodded again.
This widened Wu Ming’s smile.
Wu Ming uttered softly, “Our Palace Master will be extremely happy to hear this news. This trip is not wasted. This is good news, this is amazing.”
Then, he headed down the mountain.
Before leaving, he did not forget to praise Zhang Han for being able to bring out those from the Dark Shadow Clan. It seemed that even Yue Wuwei was unable to do so.
Of course, this was just Wu Ming’s thought.
“Kunlun Immortal World, secular world, worldlet, Ancient Mine, King’s Domain, Dark Shadow Clan, Bone Demon.”
Looking at Wu Ming’s back, Zhao Feng sighed sentimentally, “I can’t imagine how big this world is.”
“But it’s just a drop in the ocean.”
After saying that, Zhang Han turned around and walked towards the back mountain.
Zhao Feng was left behind with the corner of his mouth twitching.
Such a big world was merely a drop in the ocean in the eyes of his master.
He could only imagine that the vast universe was definitely an exciting world.
At that moment, Zhao Feng started looking forward to following his master towards the depths of the universe in the future.
After a short playtime and a meal with her parents, Mengmeng followed them up to the third floor to do her homework. Not only was she fast, but she was also getting many questions right. However, as she was in a hurry to watch cartoons, it was inevitable for her to be careless. She got two questions wrong and Zi Yan explained the answers to her patiently. Then, the family of three went to the movie hall to watch cartoons.
The next day.
Mengmeng came to the school and immediately found Ma Fei.
“Ma Fei, Ma Fei, what are you thinking about?”
Ma Fei’s deskmate had yet to arrive, so Mengmeng sat there. Looking at the absent-minded Ma Fei, Mengmeng had a curious expression on her face.
“I… I’m not thinking of anything. Mengmeng, why are you here?”
Ma Fei was introverted and his voice was also particularly low. As the classroom was noisy, Mengmeng could only hear him clearly by listening carefully.
“I want our group to get first place. Your results are dropping too much. Are you facing any difficulty?”
“No.” Ma Fei shook his head.
He obviously had something on his mind, but he was not the type to talk about it.
“My parents and I want to visit your home after school today. We want to have a chat with your parents.”
“No, I can’t,” Ma Fei answered weakly.
“Ah?”
Mengmeng was stunned by Zhang Han’s straightforward refusal. Then, she pouted and said unhappily, “Hmph! So be it then! I’m not going to talk to you anymore!”
Then, Mengmeng got up to leave.
Now Ma Fei became anxious.
“No… Mengmeng, my mom has time, so she can go.” Ma Fei quickly changed his mind.
However, he looked a little guilty.
“Hmph!”
Mengmeng snorted again. “It’s settled then. Don’t go back on your word.”
“Got it.”
After hearing Ma Fei’s answer, Mengmeng then hopped back to her seat. She began chatting with Li Muen and the other girls who gathered around her.
When class was about to start, Mengmeng waved her little hand.
“All right, all right. We’re starting class soon. Everyone, go back to your seats. Don’t talk too loudly!”
This class monitor had quite a good demeanor.
Everyone followed her orders. They went back to their seats and whispered to each other.
When Lu Guo arrived at the class, the students were completely quiet. Without Lu Guo telling them, these students all knew that they had to keep quiet during lessons. Even if you did not feel like listening, you should not disturb others.
During lunch, Lu Guo brought Mengmeng and her good friend Li Muen to a security office not far away from the school gate.
The office was very neat and tidy. There were a bedroom and a living room that was used as a dining area. There was a single bed in the bedroom, as well as other utilities such as a TV. The standard was about the same as that of a hotel’s luxury suite.
Luo Shan had specially arranged this accommodation for Lu Xiong. Of course, it was also the place for Mengmeng to have lunch.
Before noon, Mount New Moon would send people to deliver some delicacies.
“Ms. Lu, my parents and I are going to Ma Fei’s house after school today. Daddy said that Ma Fei’s results are falling behind, so he’s going to talk to Ma Fei’s parents. If he’s facing difficulty, we can help him. In this way, we can continue learning and win first place as a group.”
Mengmeng explained to him in a serious manner while eating.
“Oh?”
Lu Xiong grinned and said, “Your dad can do two people’s work. He’ll definitely be able to help Ma Fei improve his grades.”
“Not necessarily. Ma Fei’s family situation…”
Lu Guo’s expression froze. Looking at Mengmeng and Li Muen, she shook her head and said, “The final exams are coming up. Even if he starts revising now, his grades might not improve much. Mengmeng, will you be sad if you can’t get the first prize?”
“No, I won’t.”
Mengmeng spoke like a true adult, “My daddy said that as long as you work hard and don’t have any regrets, it’s fine if you don’t get first place.”
Lu Guo was amused by Mengmeng’s words.
However, she felt a little relieved.
Since Mr. Zhang and Mengmeng wanted to pay them a visit, maybe this could also be a solution.
Lu Guo did not know how to deal with Ma Fei’s situation, and neither could she communicate with his parents.
If there were students who are good at studying, then there would be those who were not. Although Dongli Elementary School was excellent, if there was first place, then there would be second, third, and last place.
Lu Guo had also always thought that good grades did not relate to a good future. She had heard from her grandfather that Zhang Hanyang was also not good at studying when he was a young master in Shang Jing.
When school was almost over in the afternoon, Ma Fei borrowed a mobile phone to call his family, informing them that the class monitor was going to visit with her parents. He also told them that he would be getting a ride from the class monitor’s father’s car, so there was no need to pick him up.
Ma Fei’s mother was a little surprised, but she still nodded and agreed. Then, she began to clean up the house.
At Mount New Moon.
“Honey, if Ma Fei’s parents recognize me, do you think it will affect our chat? Should I do a little makeover? I can’t wear sunglasses when I go to other’s house, can I?” Zi Yan sat before the dressing table and muttered.
“It’s okay. Just be yourself. There’s nothing to worry about. I’ll be there with you.”
Zhang Han smiled and said, “Why don’t you put on a pair of no-degree glasses?”
“No-degree glasses? What about this one?”
Zi Yan picked up a pair of glasses, put them on, and Zhang Han broke into laughter.
“Now this is something. Put on a pair of stockings and you’ll look like an adult actress.”
