Yun Jian’s decision to go back to Longmen City was not made in a haste. From the moment she stepped foot in Yulong Mainland, her goal had been simple and clear—she wanted to find out who the mysterious person manipulating Inferno Ring behind the curtain was.
The culprit of her younger brother’s tragic death in their previous life had yet to be annihilated. Of course, this was only one of the reasons.
From her younger brother being harmed in their past life to the numerous assassination attempts on her recently, everything hinted that this was not as simple as one thought.
That was why Yun Jian planned for a trip to Yulong Mainland.
In spite of it, she was clear that the world would not host so many coincidences. It was impossible for her to simply run into the mysterious person during her trip in Yulong Mainland this time.
Before she left, she had privately asked Wu Lan to help her look for the mysterious person’s whereabouts, as well as another person—her teacher in her previous life, the elder whom she did not know his name.
It was this elderly man who taught her things like hypnosis in her past life that she had managed to survive the dog-eat-dog world.
Very much earlier on, Yun Jian had heard that the old man came from Yulong Mainland. Since she was here now, she hoped that she could meet the teacher who had done her a great favor in her previous life.
“I…” Lan Su paused and stayed silent.
“I’ll…” She bit her lips; just as she was about to speak of her decision, Ya Dang who stood next to her grabbed hold of her hand and told Yun Jian on behalf of her, “Young madam, look at how homesick she is. Surely she wouldn’t want to go back to Longmen City in the meantime.”
As Ya Dang spoke, he exaggerated his feigned carefree expression on his cool looking face and chuckled before continuing smoothly. “Young master’s already agreed to me staying in Yulong Mainland for a while. I’ll take good care of her. When Wu Clan is doing better, I wouldn’t let her keep staying here even if she wants to.”
Ya Dang gave Lan Su’s supple cheek a pinch and laughed heartily.
Lan Su who heard the man’s easygoing speech looked up at him emotionally. She did not even realize that her hand was somehow held in Ya Dang’s as she was simply too touched that the latter had spoken her mind for her.
After another two seconds, Lan Su breathed out and told Yun Jian, “Yun Jian, I want to stay in Yulong Mainland. At the very least, I can’t leave right now. Murong Clan is uprooted. Now is the best time for Wu Clan to rise again!”
“Mn, I’ll wait for you in Longmen City.” Yun Jian nodded with a smile. She would never stop others from doing what they wanted; she had always been supportive toward people she regarded as her own like Qin Yirou and Yun Yi no matter what they wanted to do.
Lan Su was moved by Yun Jian’s reply. Holding Ya Dang’s hand, she promised Yun Jian, “Don’t worry, Yun Jian. I just need a semester—no, a summer break and I’ll make Wu Clan rise again! I’ll go back to Longmen City for you after that!”
“I’ll be waiting.” Yun Jian beamed with her eyes that glinted with a cryptic glimmer.
It was faith, and her promise with Lan Su.
…
That night, Si Yi slept with Yun Jian in his arms but did nothing else.
The next morning, Yun Jian, Si Yi and Mo Sen went back.
Since Si Yi did not lose his spiritual power, Lan Su did not have to send them from Wu Clan to the portal that connected Yulong Mainland and earth.
It was not difficult for Yun Jian to come here from earth. Wu Lan would inform Yun Jian once she had news and the latter would surely come to Yulong Mainland again as soon as she could. Therefore, even if Lan Su was a little reluctant to part, it was not hard to bid goodbye.
As for now, the three of them had gone through the stone tunnel on earth and exited the cave with the trap mechanism. Just as they came out, they discovered that Lin Xiaochu, Lin Meiyan and their company were still around.
Lin Xiaochu and Lin Meiyan had even ran over to greet Yun Jian when they saw her exiting.
