"I…Is it really you?" Hearing that, Lu Zhi Yun asked this with her shaky voice. She tried very hard to suppress her emotions.
She could not even describe what she was feeling now.
"Yes," Bai Chen answered and flicked his hand to make them invisible to others. No one would notice their existence, even if they walked right through them.
Lu Zhi Yun was stupefied for a second before she felt comfortable again. She suppressed her emotions very quickly and took a deep breath. She smiled happily.
"I'm glad you're still alive."
Then, her face grew dim. "I heard about Xu In and your 2 other wives. My deepest condolences."
Bai Chen only shook his head. Even though he was also sad and angry about their deaths, he still had a chance to bring them back, as well as the him of this parallel world.
The method was with his eternal truth of time!
"If you'll excuse me." Bai Chen said good-bye. He was not close to Lu Zhi Yun, so there was nothing much to talk about.
"Please wait." Lu Zhi Yun quickly stopped Bai Chen. She hesitated as if she wanted to say something.
Follow on NovᴇlEnglish.nᴇt"What is it?" Bai Chen asked. He was actually curious about what she was going to say.
"I…I have something important to talk about. Can we find a coffee shop to sit in and talk for a while?" Lu Zhi Yun decided to speak after hesitating for a short time.
Bai Chen looked at the time. He thought that he had not been gone for a long time just yet and still had time for this. He accepted her invitation.
Shortly after that, both of them were in a luxurious coffee shop. They sat opposite each other. There were cups of steaming hot coffee on the table between them. Bai Chen ordered a black coffee for himself, while Lu Zhi Yun had a latte.
"What is it?" Bai Chen took a sip of his coffee and asked.
Lu Zhi Yun inhaled deeply before speaking. "I heard that a thousand-year herb is about to grow!"
She spoke normally because Bai Chen had asked her to. There was no need for cultivator language.
Bai Chen raised his brows and repeated what she said. "A thousand-year fruit?"
"Yes." Lu Zhi Yun nodded politely. "It helps with cultivating and training the stage power. It is full of pure spirit qi and plasma radiation!"
Bai Chen fell silent and knitted his eyebrows tightly. Then, his eyes glowed slightly.
'If the thousand-year fruit is like what Lu Zhi Yun said, it should be able to help me reach the eternal level faster!'
He thought this and asked for more details from her. "About this fruit—how many will spawn?"
Lu Zhi Yun thought about it for a short while. She was not certain about that since it was unpredictable. Even so, she made a calculation. "I'm not sure, but I think there should be at least 10."
"At least 10. I see." Bai Chen nodded. "And you're telling me this because you want me to help you find it?"
"That's correct." Lu Zhi Yun did not hide it. This was actually what had made her hesitant. She was afraid that Bai Chen would be angry at her for being so bold as to ask him for help with this matter.
"If you help me, I'll ask for only one for myself and the rest will be yours," she added.
Bai Chen agreed to help after giving it some thought. He thought that the deal was worth it. Even only 1 of them was good enough.
"When and where will it grow?" Bai Chen looked at the time and asked.
Lu Zhi Yun thought that Bai Chen must be in a hurry to go somewhere else, so she did not hesitate to tell him. "In 2 days, on He Yien mountain."
"He Yien mountain?" Bai Chen remembered that it was quite far from Beijing. Of course, however, he could reach there in the blink of an eye with his power.
"All right. We'll meet in 2 days." Bai Chen told her his home address before they parted ways.
Before that, however, Lu Zhi Yun did not forget to tell him that it was not going to be an easy task since there would be a great many competitors, be they strong cultivators or stages.
Follow on Novᴇl-Onlinᴇ.cᴏmOver the past many years, there had been more strong cultivators and stages.
Bai Chen listened to her attentively before heading back home. He did not think that he would be the strongest among all of them with his tertiary immortal level. That was why he had better be careful.
Once Bai Chen was gone, Lu Zhi Yun quickly left the mall and headed towards a place up on the mountain not so far from Beijing.
It was a wooden house. It looked plain and simple.
The air around here was very pure. However, it could not be entirely pure since there was plasma radiation lingering everywhere. It was the radiation that caused an incurable disease.
Even though it was similar to celestial qi and was very useful to cultivators and stages, not all of them knew how to prevent themselves from getting the illness.
Over the past 10 years, there had been a lot of cultivators and stages that had fallen victim to it.
Of course, Xu Xue Ning was one of them.
When she reached the wooden house, Lu Zhi Yun did not go in. She murmured, "Brother, it's me."
Shortly after that, the door was slowly opened. A middle-aged man who was aged almost 50 walked out. His face was a little wrinkly. There were some grey hairs on his head. He was in a black traditional Chinese outfit. He also emitted the aura of a cultivator.
"You're back, Zhi Yun." The man spoke kindly.
He was none other than Lu Yi, Lu Zhi Yun's older brother, the former top authority of the Jing Cha Secret Organisation, which was ruled by Jing Cha the Legendary, who had been brutally burnt by silver flames in a far-off dimension!
