Eternal Life Starts as a Hunter-Chapter 216 - 110: Carefree Martial House, Sinister She Xiang; Yan Mu’s Letter, Emperor’s Regret (Major - )
He suddenly thought of the supreme influences hidden behind history that stand above great powers like the Profound Gold Temple and the Holy Fire Palace.
Does this mean... someone once did the same thing as he did?
Dividing a sheet of the Visualization Image is constructing an independent faction?
Then the question is... are those who did the same thing as him still alive?
...
...
Two months passed with no one knowing where Li Yuan had gone.
But for their ancestor to venture far afield was not unusual.
Upon his return, it was already dark. After bathing and changing clothes, he embraced the gentle Lady Yan.
After a long time, as they calmed down...
Lady Yan twisted her hips, turned around, and hooked her jade-like arms around his neck, her breath like orchids as she whispered: "Go see Sister Xue tomorrow. She doesn’t say it, but I know she misses you too."
Li Yuan reached out to embrace the beauty in his arms and softly told her what he’d been doing these past days.
Lady Yan said nothing, her cheek resting on the man’s chest, suddenly asking, "I’ve been pondering Feng’Er’s patterns."
"Do you still dream about her?"
The maiden in his arms pressed her chin against his chest, nodding.
"But the ghosts are not actually them, and I don’t want you to get into trouble..."
The chin pressed down again, but then the delicate girl wrapped her legs around Li Yuan, climbed up a bit, and whispered in front of him, "What if... Feng’Er’s pattern is to keep me from dying?"
This question left Li Yuan at a loss.
The air turned silent, and he continued, "The Carpenter’s Shop has a pattern where you must enter the shop, the Mass Grave involves karmic reincarnation, where the dead seek you out. Strictly speaking, these two Ghost Realms don’t have any special patterns, essentially, trouble only arises if you enter the ghost realms.
And Feng’Er preventing you from dying doesn’t make sense, and... there’s no way to prove such a pattern."
Saying this, Li Yuan suddenly hugged Lady Yan tightly, "Don’t foolishly try it yourself."
Lady Yan sensed his tension, gave a light laugh, and gently touched his chest, saying, "Look how nervous you are."
"Promise me, don’t try recklessly." Li Yuan was indeed very nervous, afraid that his woman might become desperate and think of seeking death just to test whether Feng’Er would intervene to save her.
How could one test that?
Yan Yu couldn’t cultivate, so she was destined not to achieve longevity.
Thus, Li Yuan hoped to become her big umbrella, shielding her from the wind and rain, protecting her peace throughout her life.
Lady Yan’s red lips moved slightly, wanting to speak but stopping, then buried her head in Li Yuan’s chest, softly saying, "Okay, I won’t try recklessly."
"Be a good girl." Li Yuan cajoled her like a child; lately, he was frequently addressed as "Senior," "Grandfather," "Ancestor," "Uncle," and thus had a feeling of seeing everyone as young.
If he looked in the mirror and recalled his real age this year being only twenty-one, he might be speechless.
"Yes, Ancestor, Grandfather, Senior..."
Lady Yan’s sweet voice was coquettish.
Then she nudged him, feigning shock, saying, "Oh my, how did I end up sleeping with the Ancestor, ooh ooh... don’t touch me, let me go~~"
Being teased by her, another wave of emotion surged in Li Yuan, but seeing her behave this way, he said, "Already a mother, yet still so mischievous, see if I don’t punish you."
They made love again as a couple.
Li Yuan lay there comfortably, feeling peaceful in mind and spirit after the harmonious union.
But Lady Yan was exhausted, her fingers lightly tapping on the man’s chest, then gently saying, "Oh yes, I forgot to tell you something."
"What is it?"
"My nephew sent a letter."
After speaking, Lady Yan added, "Yan Mu, the one who went to Jade Capital City. The letter was sent to the Little Ink Workshop, wanting to be handed to Yan Yu or Li Yuan, and was quickly delivered here.
The letter says that Crown Prince Red Lotus was defeated, fled from Jade Capital, and is being hunted down while the Emperor is going back to Jade Capital City to give rewards.
He... should be coming back soon too."
Saying this, she laughed, "My nephew wants to return home gloriously."
Li Yuan recalled that Brother Yan from his memory, thought for a while, back then they had interacted, and Yan Mu did not look down on him as an ordinary person, later even entrusting family to him, and they had now become relatives.
"Good, good, as long as he’s alive."
"Don’t call him Brother Yan anymore, he should call you Uncle."
The air quietened as Lady Yan spoke again, "Don’t worry, he’s family... shouldn’t come with ill intentions."
Li Yuan nodded, but he was not like before, any surprise was enough to make him vigilant.
If he remembered correctly, the Emperor had promised the great powers of the world that those who helped him reclaim the Jade Capital could pick three treasures from the Great Zhou Armory.
Since Crown Prince Red Lotus was defeated, it was time for the Emperor to open the Great Zhou Armory.
Yan Mu was somehow involved, is there really no problem?
What is he returning to do?
As Li Yuan pondered, Lady Yan had already fallen asleep.
In her dream, the dark room, the glaring window, the eerie white shadow... every night was the same.
Lady Yan already had the ability to move freely. She took a few steps forward, sat at the small table, the only furniture in the room, resting her chin on her hand, while several sheets of mysterious white paper money appeared on the table again without her knowing.
Lady Yan reached out her hand to touch them.
But before she could, the white shadow at the window turned around with a "cuckoo" sound, grabbed the white paper money ahead of her, and handed it to her.
Lady Yan accepted the paper money, and softly said, "Feng’Er, let’s do something together."
But there was no response.
The ghost could not speak.
Lady Yan continued, "My man worries about me too much, I don’t know how to tell him."
Still silence.
"He would surely stop me, not letting me do anything. Because I’m just an ordinary person, and he worries about me getting into trouble," Lady Yan spoke softly.
