Chapter 928: Chapter 926: Faking Death?

"Your Father Emperor will be overjoyed to hear this. But your dad is really great, too. Just respect his choices, he’s not only your Father Beast, beyond that, he is his own person," Sally advised the children.

But when Manman had made up her mind, it wasn’t easy to sway her. "Anyway, when I go back, if that Dancing Girl is still there, I’ll burn her so thoroughly that not even her ashes will remain!"

"Sister, your fire is still too weak; I’ll do the burning next time," Little Baobao chimed in energetically.

Sally consoled the two children, but their protective feelings toward her also deeply moved her.

Yan Ze had said something to her when returning to the System World—if he doesn’t care about your feelings, why should you care about his?

"Xiaomei, can you still clear the emotional cache?"

"Of course, Host."

"Help me clear Ming Linyuan’s emotional cache."

"Are you sure?"

"...Yes."

"Clearing complete!"

...

Beast World.

After Rong Ruo finished his students’ assignments, he returned to the Su Residence.

Gazing at the quiet, empty courtyard that lacked the children’s noisy voices made it feel too silent.

A knock on the door resonated—’thump thump thump.’

Rong Ruo opened the door to find Ming Linyuan standing outside, his expression somewhat haggard, and behind him stood a snow lion agarwood carriage, expansive and luxurious.

Rong Ruo paused, then warmly invited, "Brother Ming, please come in."

Ming Linyuan followed Rong Ruo inside, looking at the clean, well-ordered courtyard with numerous rat holes under the walls... He looked away to hide his expression.

"One does not come to the Three Treasure Hall without a reason; today, I have a request."

"Talk not of requests; Brother Ming, just tell me, and if I’m capable, I will do it."

Ming Linyuan looked outside, "Come in."

Two women alighted from the carriage—one a maid, supporting another dressed in an elegant pale-white gown with a black sunshade headdress.

Ming Linyuan said, "Wu’er, this is Rong Ruo, Young Master of the Sea God Palace and a professor at the Divine Beast University."

The graceful Wu’er knelt in front of Rong Ruo with a courtesy, "This humble one pays respects to the Young Master."

Rong Ruo’s expression stiffened slightly as he looked at Ming Linyuan.

Ming Linyuan showed a pleading look, "Wu’er was injured by Manman with the Phoenix Elemental True Fire imbued with the Dark Rule. Only the Yuanhai Ren Water from the Sea God Palace can save her."

Rong Ruo paused, then said, "If it’s the Dark Rule, Xiaojiu’s Light Rule or Little Ao’s Light Principle would be most suitable. Coupled with Xiaoshi’s or Little Shiqi’s Life Rules, it isn’t difficult."

"But the children went with her."

"They made quite a few amulets with Innate Secret Techniques during their amulet class; don’t you have any?"

"In recent years, I’ve spent less time with the children," replied Ming Linyuan.

"Hmm, they seem to have all been saving them for Yanyan, I don’t have any either," Rong Ruo looked at Wu’er, still kneeling, and promptly said, "Jade Dancing Goddess, please stand."

"Let’s go inside first." Rong Ruo led them into the living room.

The Su Residence had no servants, so making tea and entertaining guests were managed by Rong Ruo alone.

After placing two cups of tea on the table, he addressed Wu’er, "Jade Dance Goddess, would you mind if I examine your injuries?"

"I hope it does not frighten the Young Master." Wu’er slowly lifted her black headdress.

A face that was half a skull and half a beauty, with burnt cranium, appeared before Rong Ruo!

Even Rong Ruo, who had seen all sorts of ghosts and goblins in the Ghost Realm, couldn’t help but startle, then he looked at a guilt-ridden Ming Linyuan beside him, "Manman’s temper..."

For a female, appearance is incredibly important; disfigurement is more vicious than deadly!

Sally slept a long, deep sleep.

After waking up, beside her were her children, not one missing, each in their unique sleeping positions.

Sally touched and kissed each of them before stepping out of the sleeping chamber, moving towards the corridor, and gazing at the starry sky outside the window—silent and profound...

"Xiaomei, where is this?"

"The deepest part of the Ghost Star System. Ahead lies Tilo Star, said by Saint Sa to be the gate to the Promised Wall."

"How long have I been asleep?"

"One year."

"...How did I sleep for so long?"

"It should be related to the clearing of Ming Linyuan’s emotional cache."

Now, mentioning Ming Linyuan felt like speaking of a stranger. Sally didn’t know if she would regret her decision, but at the moment, she had to focus all her energy on facing the trials of the Promised Wall.

Whether the Ancestral Dragon could be resurrected depended entirely on the Promised Wall—it was her last hope at present!

"Have the children been alright during this time?"

"No problem. Saint Sa has been teaching the children every day, and they have also visited some planets. He teaches many things. The host was right; he is truly knowledgeable. I suggest the host lure Saint Sa back to Divine Beast University to teach; that would be very suitable."

"That sounds like a good idea, and he also mentioned wanting to go to the Beast World."

"There’s another matter I think I should remind the host about. While clearing your emotional cache and retracing the timeline, Xiaomei discovered something."

"What is it?"

Within the System Space, a video was played...

Sally watched the video of herself, holding a newborn baby, begging beside a trash bin, and then a person appeared in front of her!

"Is this the 24th!? Is he still alive?"

"From the video, yes, host. That child should be the 25th."

"How is that possible? Didn’t you say he was killed by Yase?"

"Or it might have been a staged death."

"Then this war... in the end, Yase might not win." She remembered that Petina Luntin was the publicly known mistress of the 24th, and Petina had declared war on the Abel Star for the 24th, rejecting peace talks.

"Yes, host." Although Xiaomei was not very interested in politics, she knew the importance of this issue and thus reminded Sally.

"Where is Wang?"

"In the Aslanda Star System, Xiaomei can contact Wang."

"Send him the video; let him decide."

"Okay, host."

...

Sally slowly narrowed her eyes, "Do you still have my and Yase’s memories from before?"

"Yes."

"After clearing the emotional cache, give them to me."

"Yes, host."

Sally closed her eyes, and new memories flooded her mind.

She carried Xiaoba, who was still an egg, walking through a desert.

Suddenly, a mirage appeared before her eyes.

An ancient and mysterious castle, akin to a colossal creature, rested on an oasis, surrounded by clear, rippling lake waters!

She was stunned for a moment, then dashed towards it!

Ultimately, she stood by the lake, looking at the mirage so close at hand.

She had been walking in the desert for three years.

Going in circles, she could never leave, as Xiaomei mentioned that a strange magnetic field surrounded this planet, trapping her in loops and preventing normal operation, so she had to stay here temporarily, waiting for a chance to leave.

What she had plenty of now was time.

And this immense castle mirage, she had seen more than once.
