1169: The Hall of Wu Clan. Being Stopped and Mocked

The Hall of Wu Clan. Being Stopped and Mocked

As Yun Jian was snuggling Si Yi's chest, she did not see him smiling.2

"We can depart now," Yun Jian said. She interrupted their discussion as she thought that what Lan Su said was not critical.

"Okay." Obediently, Lan Su closed her mouth and stopped talking.

The group was then casted back to Wu Clan by Lan Su. 

Some time was needed to go from earth to Yulong Mainland's portal then to Wu Clan. Lan Su had a group to take along with her, so the trip was only slower. It took them two whole days.

To prevent a repeat of the last accident, Yun Jian had put skin masks on Si Yi, Ya Dang and Mo Sen these two days. The production of the three skin masks was more complicated than the disguise makeup previously and used much more materials; they costed a lot to make and were only for single uses.

Yun Jian had produced them anyway just so the disguise would not melt off when it rained like last time.

On the way back, Lan Su returned the sandalwood box to Yun Jian.

"Wizard Lord Wu, this is yours. Now that we're going back to Wu Clan, it belongs to you whether you're willing to help our clan return to its former peaking glory or not!"

Lan Su did not call Yun Jian by her name this time. Instead, she looked at her in an incredibly calm expression as she said what could be considered a sincere request.

There was a slight furrow of brows on Yun Jian. She had wanted to reject Lan Su but the latter's sincere expression made her soften her crease of brows and change her mind. "Alright!"

She took the sandalwood box from Lan Su's hand as she answered.

Lan Su changed back into the black ancient dress she had once worn on their journey back, leaving the three guys and Yun Jian to remain wearing their original modern attires.

"We're here! This is Wu Clan!" Two days of traveling later, Lan Su finally brought the four of them to Wu Clan.

Yun Jian was currently standing before a massive ancient building that looked different from all the architecture left on earth despite the dynasties. Its massive scale and loftiness were able to fill one with awe even when Wu Clan had been deteriorating!

The hall of Wu Clan was covered in a layer of black both inside and outside. If researchers were to study the place, their eyes would probably bulge and fall all the way to outer space. This was because the hall of Wu Clan had been built since millennia ago and had never had any crack.

What was more important was that the structure was not built using any soil or cement existing on earth. It was easily distinguishable from its exterior that the materials did not belong to earth.

The first sight that greeted Yun Jian was the gigantic shattered crystal ball on the floor that no one cleaned up right at the front of the massive building that was the hall of Wu Clan. It was not true that no one cleaned up, though—it was that no one dared clean it up!

That was what the Wizard Lord Wu had left behind!

"Let's head inside." Lan Su stared at the shards of the shattered crystal ball before leading the way inside.

"Mn," Yun Jian hummed softly in response.

The six of them then continued their way. Before they could come to the center of the hall, a group of people who were dressed similarly to Lan Su—all black ancient costumes—and looked to be around her age stopped her.

The person leading the group was a young woman who looked put together. She stood before Lan Su boldly. The girl was unlike Lan Su; she was born not too long ago while Lan Su had already lived up to thousands of year.

The girl and the rest of the teenagers behind her had never seen what Wizard Lord Wu looked like. Hence, when she saw Yun Jian, she was only astonished by her beauty.

Despite that, she trained her gaze on Lan Su after nonchalantly raking her eyes over Si Yi, Ya Dang and Mosen, and mocked, "Heh! I heard that you're still looking for some Wizard Lord Wu. Wizard Lord Wu's been dead for over a millennium. She'd have come back a long time ago if she wanted to! Now, Wu Clan already has my aunt. The return of Wizard Lord Wu and whatever is just a myth!"
