Atlas of Heaven and Earth
Chapter 458: Waves

On the sixth day of the new year, Chen Chuan woke up early from his sleep. With the relaxation of the past two days, the effects of the Memory serum resurfaced.

This time, the woman with light brown hair appeared again, hugging her arms and talking to another person.

That person had a very prominent Company executive demeanor, with a very serious expression, as if he was admonishing or persuading.

He didn't know where this was, but it seemed to be on some kind of trestle road, with red lanterns floating in the sky, and occasional sounds of firecrackers.

He glanced at it. Was this during the New Year? No wonder this memory surfaced at this time.

His mother was leaning on the railing on the side, not listening to them, only occasionally hearing the woman's irritable voice.

After a while, the woman walked back in anger. The Company executive seemed to want to chase after her, but his mother stepped forward and blocked him. In the end, this person didn't chase after her and turned away.

After the person left, his mother and the Brown-haired Woman talked and walked to a cliff. He didn't recognize where this was, but he remembered the words on the nearby cliff wall and prepared to check it out after returning to Central City.

At this time, the content of their conversation caught his attention slightly.

Although the two had said a lot before, the woman had not mentioned any identity or background. But this time, the woman said that she would not return to the Company.

He was thoughtful. It seemed that this woman might be a high-level executive of a Company, and his mother might be her Security guard , but it was not yet clear which Company it was.

But thinking of the card left by his parents this life, the two might be related.

While he was thinking, there were sporadic firecrackers outside again.

He glanced at it, got up from the bed, and decided not to bother guessing. The specific clues should be known as more memories surfaced.

After getting dressed, he went out to wash up. He was going to Cheng Zitong's house to pay a New Year visit today, so he had to leave early.

During the New Year in Da Shun, Gong Zhan Xin , the direct heir of the old royal family of the Outer Ocean Islands, personally visited the Wave Pavilion headquarters on Erwen Island under the Commission of Ferris Wheel Corporation.

Accompanied by several retainers and High Heaven Sect followers, he entered the Pavilion under the gaze of Martial Combat hall disciples dressed in martial arts uniforms.

An hour later, he came out of the Pavilion and said to the Ferris Wheel Corporation representative waiting outside, "Pavilion Master Feng He has agreed. He will send Jian Cheng Sheng , the most proud disciple of this generation."

"The most proud"

The Ferris Wheel Corporation representative couldn't help but question, "Shouldn't it be the most outstanding one"

Gang Yingzhuo, the retainer beside him, sternly said, "Please watch your words, standing in front of you is the current head of the Gong Family, His Highness Prince Gong."

The Company representative bowed and said, "Please forgive me, I have no intention of disrespecting the Gong Family."

Gong Zhan Xin didn't mind. He maintained his elegant demeanor and said with a smile, "The envoy is for Company affairs and the welfare of the Outer Ocean Islands. Our targets are the same."

"Thank you for your Highness's understanding."

Gong Zhan Xin said, "I did want Pavilion Master Feng He to send the most outstanding disciple at first."

"Then why didn't Pavilion Master Feng He agree"

Under Gang Yingzhuo's angry glare again, the Company representative took the initiative to apologize, bowing again and saying, "Your Highness, please forgive me, I'm just a little anxious, because this time the target is different, we have failed before, and we don't want to make your Highness travel once again because of this."

Gong Zhan Xin said, "Thank you to your Company for thinking of me, but..." He said without hesitation, "Although the Gong Family still has some Influence, it does not have absolute constraint over Wave Pavilion. Wave Pavilion is willing to give us face because they are willing to abide by this promise. I cannot make decisions on their behalf."

The Company representative thought for a moment, then looked up and said, "Can't it be changed"

Gong Zhan Xin shook his head gently.

"Understood, I will report to the Company truthfully." After saying that, the Company representative left with his men.

After he left, Gang Yingzhuo turned around with his sword, "Your Highness, this Company representative is too rude. They obviously need your Highness to come forward, but they still disrespect you so much."

Gong Zhan Xin seemed to see it very clearly, "Isn't this obvious? If they really respected me, I wouldn't have to come here according to their wishes."

He turned his head and looked in the direction of Wave Pavilion, saying faintly, "Even Wave Pavilion is using our Gong Family's name as a shield. They are not as loyal as they appear to be."

Gang Yingzhuo said angrily, "A bunch of traitors."

"Gang Ying, you don't understand. On the Outer Ocean Islands, anyone who can survive from the old times and still live well, which one is not carrying stains and shame? Just like you and me."

Gong Zhan Xin sighed and said, "Loyal people are long gone."

The representative of Ferris Wheel Corporation immediately started sending Telegrams after returning to the ship located in Port. The headquarters soon received the news.

After careful evaluation, they felt that this candidate was feasible, because theoretically, this was already the most suitable person that Wave Pavilion could send at the moment.

Some of the older disciples of Wave Pavilion were either famous or had entered the Convergence Zone early. The former would be closely monitored if they entered Da Shun, while the latter were undertaking missions and it would be difficult to return for a while.

But Jian Cheng Sheng was different. He didn't actually have much fame outside, but it wasn't that he didn't have Strength. Since he had achieved some success at the age of fourteen, he had been challenging famous figures all over the Outer Ocean island countries, but he only used aliases. This was rare, because on the Outer Ocean, they often used any means to become famous.

He suffered repeated defeats at first, but had not lost once since the age of fifteen. It was said that even among his fellow disciples , he was rarely an opponent. It could not be said that Wave Pavilion was insincere in sending this disciple .

On the beach on the south side of Erwen Island, a young man looking eighteen or nineteen years old stood on a reef by the sea, holding the Long Sword at his waist with one hand, looking at the waves coming towards him.

He wore a bun and old-fashioned ancient clothes. The blue robe fluttered in the sea breeze. His Skin was relatively rough and his fingers were thick, but he had a demeanor that was difficult for ordinary people to ignore. His eyes always carried a stubbornness, as if he could defeat the raging waves and reverse the tide.

"Shengjun, the Pavilion Master invites you back."

Jian Cheng Sheng turned around, bowed to the messenger, then jumped off the reef and returned along the road.

Wave Pavilion was built on a small hill, where the sound of the roaring sea waves could be heard all year round. Two rows of bright crimson flower trees were planted in front of the door, and the petals fell like splashing blood, covering the road in front.

Before the mountain road stood a neighborhood, and on the side of the road was a large stone with the words "Waves" written on it, with a natural momentum, as if the sea waves were surging.

Passing through the neighborhood and arriving above, walking on the corridor paved with wooden boards, he came all the way to the main hall's viewing room. Attendants on both sides used bamboo poles to lift the bamboo curtains. Jian Cheng Sheng took off his shoes, stepped on the shiny wooden floor, came to the front, bowed in the ancient style, and said respectfully, "teacher ."

Hanging on the wall of the viewing room was a huge scroll with the words "Hearing Thunder" written on it, and below it, sitting in a slanting position, was Feng He Shou , the Pavilion Master of Wave Pavilion.

This was a thin man with long hair scattered down to the ground, but he was Anomaly tall, and just sitting there seemed to be around two meters tall.

Compared to him, Jian Cheng Sheng seemed like a child in terms of body size.

Feng He Shou said, "I originally planned to send you to the Convergence Zone for training. There you can learn the next stage of skills, but we once made a promise to the Gong Family royal family that as long as a direct descendant of the Gong Family comes to invite us, we will send at least one outstanding disciple to serve them."

Jian Cheng Sheng listened silently.

Feng He Shou said, "Now they need to eliminate a Martial Artist from Da Shun, and I plan to let you go."

Jian Cheng Sheng said without pride or impetuosity, "Shouldn't teacher's best disciples be Senior Brother Bian Yue and Senior Brother San Cheng"

Feng He Shou said, "They were not as good as you at your age."

"But since we are going to defeat the enemy, shouldn't we send the best disciple "

Feng He Shou said, "Among the twenty-one halls inherited from ancient times on the Outer Ocean Islands, only three are still continuing today. The reason why Wave Pavilion can still occupy its place is not only relying on martial force, but also because we know how to make trade-offs.

If I am the past of Wave Pavilion, your senior brothers are the present of Wave Pavilion, and you are the future of Wave Pavilion. I entrust the future to the Gong Family, which is the greatest integrity of Wave Pavilion."

"I understand." Jian Cheng Sheng bowed deeply.

Feng He Shou said, "I allow you to go with the name of Wave Pavilion. If you can come back, you can engrave your name on the bamboo stone behind the hall. If you are defeated and die, you will also have a place on the sacrifice stone in front."

Jian Cheng Sheng raised his head and said solemnly, "Please teacher listen to the sounds of the future in the hall, disciple will bring back the name."

At this time, a maid walked over in small steps. She brought a large bowl of medicinal wine with a pungent smell and placed it in front of Jian Cheng Sheng .

Feng He Shou said, "Drink this bowl of medicinal wine."

Jian Cheng Sheng picked it up without hesitation, raised his head and drank it down. But after a while, he began to feel itchy all over.

He wiped it casually and found that the calluses on his hands were starting to peel off, and the rough old Skin on his body and face that had been blown by the sea breeze all year round was also falling off layer by layer, revealing fair Skin.

In just a moment, he had turned into a handsome and elegant Young man with red lips and white teeth. This was actually what he originally looked like, but he seemed to be two or three years younger.

Except for his eyes that were still firm and persistent, even familiar people would hardly recognize him at once.

Feng He Shou said, "Although your biometric information has never been recorded by Da Shun, and you have used aliases for external challenges, you can still be found and recognized.

This is the "White Infant Wine' sent by Ferris Wheel Corporation, which can make your Skin as delicate and smooth as a newborn baby. You can enter Da Shun at an age that looks two years younger than before."

Then he said, "You don't need to bring anything. The people from Ferris Wheel Corporation have prepared everything for you. You only need to bring your sword and the swordsmanship I taught you.

You, you can leave."

"Disciple bids farewell."

Jian Cheng Sheng bowed respectfully, then stood up, holding the Long Sword at his waist and walked out. When he walked past the wave stone, a sound came from behind, "Hey, kid."

He turned his head and saw a messy-haired, lame old man with sloppy clothes, who was the gatekeeper of Wave Pavilion. He bowed and said, "Senior."

The old man said to him, "Fame is something that only living people care about, so live well and come back, don't die on me."

Jian Cheng Sheng did not answer, just bowed and walked towards the ship parked by the sea with steady steps.
