Chapter 519 - Harbor
Chapter 519 – Harbor
After sending Yun Lintian and Su Minghai away, Lei Feifei tapped on the table for a while and took a golden transmission jade out. "Second Aunt, how are you?"
A few breaths later, a female voice filled with surprise rang out from the other side. "Feifei? Oh my. Is the sun going to rise from the west now?"
Lei Feifei curled her lips. If it was possible, she didn't want to contact her family again, but Linlin's identity scared her witless. She must confirm this matter first.
She started to act like a baby as she pouted. "Stop teasing me already, Second Aunt. Can't I contact you when I miss you?"
"Miss me? Girl, who did you try to deceive? If you said that you are here to ask for money, I would believe it." Lei Feifei's Second Aunt, Lei Baiyu, said with a hint of laughter.
"Second Aunt!" Lei Feifei pouted angrily.
"Alright, alright. Your second aunt won't tease you anymore. Say, what's the matter? Has something happened to your Black Wing group? Do you need my help?" Lei Baiyu asked concernedly.
Hearing this, Lei Feifei's heart was warm. She had never felt this way for a long, long time and somehow started to miss it a bit. She shook her head to get rid of messy thoughts and went straight to the point. "There's nothing happened to my group. I just want to ask you something, Second Aunt… I heard that Lei Jun had returned from the Northern Continent not long ago. Is it true?"
Lei Baiyu replied in almost an instant. "Since when you have interested in his affair?"
"Just answer me, Second Aunt." Lei Feifei started to get annoyed.
"Oh little girl, you still have this temper after all this year… Yes, he had returned a while ago." Lei Baiyu complained.
"Is there anything happened to make him return?" Lei Feifei asked further.
"What is this question?" Lei Baiyu was curious. "Come to think of it, there seems to be an accident on this trip. If I remember correctly, the Thunder Valley on the Northern Continent had somehow collapsed. I don't know much about the specific detail."
A strange light flashed across Lei Feifei's eyes. She felt the collapse of the Thunder Valley should have something to do with Linlin… Why did such a legendary figure become someone's pet? Who the hell was this Mu Chen?
The more she thought, the more curious she became. Lei Feifei wanted to ask Yun Lintian directly, but she was afraid that Linlin would be dissatisfied and cast another spell on her.
"I must help him hide identity." Lei Feifei muttered to herself.
"Girl? Are you there? Why did you become silent all of a sudden?" Lei Baiyu's voice resounded.
Lei Feifei quickly replied. "It's nothing, Second Aunt. I have to go now. Thank you for telling me this… Right, you must keep this secret for me, Second Aunt. Don't tell anyone that I ask you this."
Lei Baiyu didn't understand why Lei Feifei acted so secretly. However, she still replied. "Alright, alright. Your second aunt will reluctantly listen to you… When are you going to come back? Your mom misses you so much. She didn't have a good sleep since the day you left…."
Before Lei Baiyu could finish her sentence, Lei Feifei cut in first. "Didn't have a good sleep? Heh, Second Aunt. I told you many times that you don't have to speak up for her. With her strength, she could find me at any time. Where is she all these years?"
Lei Baiyu's sigh could be heard from the other side. "Can you forgive her once? The incident back then is not her fault at all."
"That's it, Second Aunt. I'm busy here." Lei Feifei didn't want to talk anymore and put the transmission jade away.
She leaned against the chair and closed her eyes, losing in deep thought.
Two days passed by quickly and today was the day Yun Lintian would leave the Central Continent. At this moment, he was standing on a spacious harbor on a golden sand beach. A lot of ships were coming and going, making the place bustling with noises.
Countless practitioners were gathered in this place. Some came here to look for newly arrived treasures while others were waiting to board the ships. The scene was so lively, causing Yun Lintian to miss the time he was on Earth again.
"What is that!?" A sudden exclaim from a man made everyone turn to look in the direction he was pointing to.
At this moment, a dilapidated ship that could sink at any moment was slowly approaching the harbor. Black smoke and fire could be seen on it. It was a miracle that the ship could still sail.
"Brothers, let's pull the ship in." Several people nearby the shore hurriedly rushed forward and pulled the ship to the harbor.
"They are lucky enough to come back." Su Minghai, who was standing beside Yun Lintian, said. His face was calm, as though he was used to this scene.
Yun Lintian's brows raised slightly as he asked. "They got attacked by profound beasts?"
"Yes, and no." Su Minghai replied calmly. "Profound beasts aren't the only thing in the sea. There is also a pirate. This ship probably encountered a wave of profound beasts first and then got ambushed by a pirate group."
"Oh? How could they come back then?" Yun Lintian was surprised.
"There is a powerful guy on the ship." Su Minghai replied and looked at a tall figure that appeared on the deck.
Yun Lintian followed Su Minghai's gaze and saw the tall guy standing proudly. He had a long beard, and his complexion was a bit savage. His eyes seemed to fill with fighting spirit, as though he was ready to fight at any time.
"His name is Quan Xun. Although he is at the third level of the Monarch Profound Realm, his battle prowess is not low at all. He fought with many middle and high-level monarchs before and even managed to defeat them.." Su Minghai said.
