Chapter 613: 562 confirmed 2
Soon, the sound of a distant car horn once again reached into Li Chengyi’s ears.
His expression was gloomy as he carefully felt the surroundings, only relaxing after confirming that the force had truly disappeared.
’Finally, it’s come... the pull of the Blind Spot.’ He had thought that he had completely escaped from the Blind Spot.
He didn’t expect that it was merely because the Blind Spot force pulling on him was not strong enough. Now that a larger Blind Spot had immediately started to draw and summon him.
’Why, even though I’ve come here, can’t I break free from the Blind Spot’s pull? It seems that what truly draws me is not Earth-Moon but something else.’
He stood still, his mind rapidly flickering through various thoughts.
’Two possibilities, one: There’s a problem with either the Blind Spot Individual or myself, leading to a natural attraction to the Blind Spot’s engulfment.’
’Two: Something omnipresent other than Earth-Moon is the real root of the forces repelling me.’
Looking at the surroundings that had now settled down and normalized, he sighed internally, and with a flash of dark light, vanished from the spot.
The reappearance of the Blind Spot made him wary once again; the curse of the Blind Spot on him was not yet completely eradicated. Any relaxation could lead to trouble.
’I must hurry... to advance my cultivation and find the root cause.’
Within the office.
Li Chengyi slowly sat down, and countless thoughts raced through his mind. Soon, his attention focused on the Good Fortune Flower Language Technique he had been accumulating previously.
’Perhaps... using my overflowing talent to gain knowledge while amplifying and enhancing with the Good Fortune abilities, and absorbing all knowledge about the Blind Spot Individual, is the better way.’
The Good Fortune abilities had accumulated countless times. Even he couldn’t estimate the full extent of their power once truly employed.
They were originally intended for use against the King of the Death Angels, but since that individual has completely vanished, now might be the perfect opportunity...
Sshh!
Just at that moment, a flash of red light appeared in the office, and the Red God materialized in front of the desk, bowing slightly towards him.
"God Bailu, we’ve found them," said the Red God.
"Take me there!" Li Chengyi’s heart leaped as he sprang to his feet.
The Red God nodded slightly, transformed into a red light, and darted into the Shadow Dragon Prison Rift.
Li Chengyi followed closely behind, his Primordial Spirit shooting forth and entering the rift.
Now, Dragon Jail was empty and desolate, as most of the prisoners had been released by Li Chengyi.
Using his powerful Consciousness Seed as a method of control, he had placed all the released prisoners under his dominion, with the Red God as the only one he couldn’t control.
The two of them blinked in and out of sight, flashing through the rift, and soon they reached a narrow expanse of starspace.
On the surface of the fifth planet, there was a small area shrouded in red light, distinctly marked, evidently an intentional signal.
"Is it there?" Li Chengyi looked to the Red God.
"Yes, but... their situation is somewhat grim," the Red God replied, his voice somber and hesitant.
Li Chengyi’s expression was unchanged, and with a flash of dark light, he disappeared.
When he reappeared, he was already on the planet’s surface, amidst desolate sand dunes.
Within the dunes, a small pale yellow city stood quietly.
The city was rather simple, with buildings mostly made of yellow stones, one or two stories high, with no decorative patterns, but constructed with a very sturdy pyramidal structure.
Within the buildings, one could vaguely see figures moving to and fro.
A whiff of the aura of Floral Beads was drifting out from between these structures, faint but detectable.
"To avoid something, they have used a special technique that even I can’t recognize, sealing all their auras," the Red God appeared beside Li Chengyi, explaining.
"If it weren’t for your suggestion that they might be here, I wouldn’t have been able to narrow down the search so quickly." Truth is, he could have found them if he had wanted to, but he wasn’t interested in doing so.
Li Chengyi soon saw a familiar figure from afar.
Paine.
He was no longer the short stature he used to have; he had grown into a young man over 1.80 meters tall.
At that moment, as if sensing something, he walked out of the cluster of buildings and onto the open space in the center, looking up at the sky with worry on his face.
"You’ve done enough, there’s no need to trouble you further. I will go and make contact with them," Li Chengyi said, looking towards the Red God.
The other party instantly understood, nodded, stepped back, and vanished into a red light.
Leaving Li Chengyi alone, he drifted slowly forward, approaching.
As he drew closer, Paine quickly noticed his figure and used some unknown method to send out a warning.
One by one, familiar faces walked out from the buildings, looking up at the sky.
They were dressed in loose white and gray robes, their skin tanned dark from the sun, but Li Chengyi could still recognize their faces.
Hai Sha, Zhou Xingtong, his father Li Zhao, his mother Feng Yurong, Xindela, her assistant Song Ran, and many members of the group as well.
And then there were three personalities that Li Chengyi hadn’t expected to see, the Shadow Dragon trio.
Saul, Ying, and Farn.
The three dragons looked much thinner than years before, with a weariness in their countenance, unknown what they had been through.
Another very familiar person also made his way out from a corner and slowly walked out, looking up into the sky.
Li Chengjiu!
She was not alone; she was standing next to a robust man, and surprisingly, there was a little child about two or three years old following them.
Li Chengjiu was wearing a dress, her appearance much more feminine than in the very early days where she wore androgynous clothes.
The robust man was her brother-in-law, Nie Qingche, whom Li Chengyi had also met before.
By now, a group of people stood out, totaling no more than fifty or sixty individuals.
Thump.
Li Chengyi landed gently from the air, greeted by the astonished, surprised, and wary gazes of everyone, and he revealed a smile.
"It’s been a long time, mom and dad, big sister and brother-in-law, Xindela, and ..." His gaze landed on Paine.
"You’ve worked hard, Paine."
Paine stared blankly at Li Chengyi, and from the beautiful face of the other, he vaguely recognized the features that once belonged to Li Chengyi.
"Boss ... is it really you!?" Paine stepped forward a few paces as if he passed through some unseen barrier.
Suddenly the connection of the Floral Bead became extremely clear.
At this moment, both sensed this unique connection.
Whoosh!!
The crowd became agitated, and after a pause, they quickly started to move closer to Li Chengyi.
The fastest among them was surprisingly Li Chengjiu.
With a burst of speed, she leaped into the air, her long legs sweeping across the neck of Li Chengyi.
But before her foot could touch his clothing, it was repelled by an invisible giant strength, sending her back to where she had come from, and she landed squarely in her brother-in-law Nie Qingche’s arms.
"My back ..." Li Chengjiu cried out, holding her waist and was unable to get up again.
This familiar ruthless feeling, and that familiar beat-up smile that one couldn’t help but find assaulting, instantly convinced her that it was indeed her little brother. That scoundrel who used to beat her mercilessly!!
"Everyone, I have returned ...," Li Chengyi said, after sending his sister flying, and likewise walked toward the others.
The tears brimming in the eyes of his parents, the relief of Xindela, and the various changes in many other people, were all seen by Li Chengyi.
The loneliness that had somewhat lingered in his heart felt as if it had been filled up by something at this moment.
No longer so uncomfortable, so empty.

The temperature dropped to below zero in the desert at night.
In a simple yellow stone house, after reuniting with his family for a while, Li Chengyi called together allies like Xindela, Hai Sha, Shadow Dragon, as well as Paine, to have a small meeting in the largest room.
"We can talk now, Paine. Why have you been continuously running and hiding? Why do you need to hide in such a remote place?"
In the dim candlelight, Li Chengyi stood with his hands behind his back, looking at the now-grown Paine.
Perhaps it was because the flow of time wasn’t the same, or perhaps for some other reason, but the current Paine didn’t look much different from a seventeen or eighteen-year-old teenager.
"We’ve been avoiding, actually, it’s always been White Wax, but more troublesome than White Wax is ... the Blind Spot," Paine said with a wry smile.
Having mastered the Floral Despair Dawn and with his own Primordial Soil identity, the more desperate the situation, the more he was able to unearth a glimmer of hope.
"The Blind Spot ... as expected ..." Li Chengyi acknowledged in his heart, "What did you rely on to evade the curse that the Blind Spot Individual couldn’t survive for more than two years?"
"Actually, after you left, I discovered a problem," Paine replied, his face showing a hint of emotion.
"The Blind Spot can be divided into two types. One type is the internal Blind Spot of Earth-Moon, which are captured by Earth-Moon yet lead to channels to the outside world. This type of Blind Spot is not too difficult.
The other type is the powerful Blind Spots in the Black Sea, which can forcefully draw Blind Spot Individuals into them. Even Earth-Moon cannot avoid these types of Blind Spots. We have been hiding from this kind of Blind Spot."
He paused, then continued.
"The internal Blind Spots of Earth-Moon, I can relatively easily help everyone get through, but with the major Blind Spots, I found that the difficulty is just too great. The danger increases with each occurrence, and all Blind Spot Individuals cannot struggle through for two years. That’s the reason for the two-year curse. So ..."
"So, we thought of a method." Xindela chimed in. "It was my suggestion," he said with a sigh. "The pull of the major Blind Spots is too powerful, and we can only seek out a new, sufficiently powerful Blind Spot to forcefully isolate its pull. By entering the new Blind Spot ourselves, it won’t directly target us, significantly increasing our safety."
"I also managed to survive for so long because I frequently entered Blind Spots, evading the pull of the smaller ones," Paine nodded in agreement.
"Now that the boss is here, we finally don’t have to drift and flee aimlessly like before..." Hai Sha said with a smile while moving his wrists.
"Should we go back?" Farn from the Three-Shadow Dragon suddenly spoke up. "With the master here, we may be able to take advantage of this moment to return to Earth-Moon."
"But White Wax is still there, even if we go back, the situation we face is likely to be..." Xindela said worriedly.
He carefully looked at Li Chengyi, and although he didn’t know how powerful Li Chengyi was, he was clearly aware of the strength of the White Wax members.
"This is indeed a problem," agreed Li Chengyi, nodding. "I’ve been back to Earth-Moon. To be able to destroy a planet to such an extent, with the Jiu Yi Royal Family perished, the power of White Wax is indeed too strong ... Our power alone is too weak."
Looking at the others whose gazes followed him, he suddenly showed a slight smile.
"Xindela, could you use your ability to help me locate the others?"
"I can, but it requires time. ’Dreams Come True’ can only be used once a month." Xindela nodded.
He had been able to cooperate with Paine and find the Shadow Dragon Prison Rift, arriving here by relying on this ability.
"Then that’s fine. You all rest and hide here, while I go out to scout around. I will confirm White Wax’s movements," Li Chengyi said.
"That’s the best way to do it. The dual threats of the Blind Spot and White Wax make it impossible for us to confront them directly. But White Wax doesn’t recognize you, boss, so it can work with Anze," Paine agreed with the arrangement.
"Yes, that’s right," Li Chengyi affirmed with an approving nod.
With the safety of his family confirmed, he felt at peace. Next, he would gather the scattered Divine Flower Generals one by one.
As for White Wax, it was time to test the waters and make contact with them ...
If they were too strong, he would only be able to establish a branch of the Tian Ju Pavilion and invoke the power of the Sect to take action.
If they weren’t strong enough ... perhaps he could completely destroy their world, turning it into a foundation of his own Primordial Soil and genuinely begin to build a new Royal’s City.
Towards White Wax, he harbored no hatred.
It’s just the way of all things, natural selection, survival of the fittest.
