Chapter 270: Chapter 270 King Mo Li_1

Back at the mountaintop, Feng Yuan was grooming Xiao Ji’s feathers while saying,

"How was it~ Did you have fun this time?"

Xiao Ji chirped happily. Just then, a Messenger Bird flew over. Feng Yuan, puzzled, took the exquisite card from the bird’s claw and glanced at it, then smiled and waved the card at Qi Chen and the others behind him, saying,

"We’re first~"

"Didn’t Elder Li already tell us?"

Qi Chen looked rather unimpressed. Dou Yanlan turned to Feng Yuan and asked,

"Is it the official announcement?"

"Yeah, let’s head out~"

Glancing at Xiao Ji, who was still a black bird, Feng Yuan said with a smile,

"I’ll ride Xiao Ji and go ahead~"

Cotton, although temporarily transformed into a Legendary Level Norick Brocade Cat, was not very large in size. But that didn’t pose a problem for Cotton. With a light stomp of its paw, a quaint and exquisite little wooden boat appeared and gently settled on the water. Sitting in the boat, Cotton meowed to Dou Yanlan, who smiled, sat down, and then said to Zhong Liuyan and Pei Yu,

"Want to come along?"

"Sure~"

"I’ll ride Duomeng."

Seeing Dou Yanlan looking over, Qi Chen glanced at the boat and noticed there wasn’t much space left. Blushing slightly, he hesitated before saying,

"I’ll go with Ah Mu."

Having said that, Qi Chen stepped onto the giant hand Ah Mu had stretched out and eventually stood atop the Amu Tree’s crown. Just as he returned to the meeting point, Feng Yuan immediately noticed numerous students in academy uniforms looking up eagerly below and quickly said to Agunas,

"Quick! The Space Gate, open it right next to Liao Yu."

Agunas nodded and waved the pen in his hand, creating a stone gate in front of Xiao Ji. Feng Yuan called for Xiao Ji to revert to its original form and, holding Xiao Ji, stepped into the Space Gate.

"Damn it! What are you doing!"

Liao Yu, who was in the middle of using the restroom, was startled by Feng Yuan’s sudden appearance. Landing smoothly, Feng Yuan stood up, looked around, and said,

"Avoiding those recruitment teachers."

"Recruitment teachers? Well, with the terrifying strength you guys have, I guess only schools at the level of Great Xia and Shangjing aren’t in a hurry. But how did you manage that?"

"Manage what?"

Feng Yuan looked at Liao Yu, puzzled, and scratched his head. Liao Yu chose his words carefully before saying,

"I mean your transformation, how did you suddenly become powerful enough to contend with Elder Li?"

"That? ’Coming of the Future’, the White Wolf Deity’s ultimate move."

"The White Wolf Deity? Did it appear?"

"Who said you have to wait for the White Wolf Deity to appear to use its ultimate move? As long as it agrees, you can borrow its power by other means."

Liao Yu looked at Feng Yuan expectantly and asked,

"Can I do that too?"

"Probably not, after all, the ’Coming of the Future’ ultimate move that attaches requires the power of Divine Beast relics to barely activate, and it has an especially long recovery time. A month’s recovery time isn’t much use to you."

"Divine Beast relics..."

Liao Yu sighed with regret, then after a while turned to Feng Yuan and said,

"Aren’t you going to collect your prize? Your team did rank first, after all."

"I’ll go when the prize ceremony starts, I’m afraid of getting mobbed right now."

"Are you really not considering other schools?"

After glancing at Liao Yu, Feng Yuan said calmly,

"Not considering. I’ve gotten used to living in Maomu City, I don’t really want to go to other academies, and there’s no need to go there just to travel."

"Since you’re waiting for the prize ceremony to start, how about you come sit in our lounge?"

"Are you looking for an excuse to slack off? Aren’t you afraid of Ye Hanlei giving you a hard time?"

Seeing Feng Yuan’s mischievous smile, Liao Yu shook his head and said,

"Our task is already finished, so it’s officially rest time now."

After the prize ceremony, just as Feng Yuan was about to leave with Qi Chen and the others, he was stopped by Elder Li. Glancing at the Wolf God’s Robe on Qi Chen, Elder Li fell silent for a moment before saying,

"Feng Yuan, Qi Chen, Dou Yanlan, come over for a moment; there are some things I need to ask you."

Following Elder Li with some confusion, they walked to a separate room where several professor-like figures had been waiting for a long time. Upon seeing Feng Yuan and the others enter, the professors quickly stood up and glanced over everyone until they saw Feng Yuan, who had Xiao Ji perched on his head. After observing Feng Yuan’s clothes with slight bewilderment, one of them approached Feng Yuan and said,

"Hello, there are some things I would like to confirm with you."

"What things?"

Feng Yuan was somewhat puzzled, and the professor considered for a moment before saying,

"The White Wolf Deity truly hasn’t had any Divine Pact Maker? Even among those who have passed away?"

"Of course, a godly beast of the Lorraine Tower’s caliber would be aware of that. Why do you ask?"

"Then... are the means by which you borrow power approved by the White Wolf Deity?"

"Definitely. Otherwise, how could we obtain the power of the White Wolf Deity? Believe it or not, if someone dares to steal it, the White Wolf Deity would be at your doorstep the next second."

Finding the professor rather baffling, Feng Yuan hesitated for a moment before the professor handed over a document envelope, saying,

"Take a look at this first."

Feng Yuan took the envelope, opened it, and found that it contained only a few photographs. Puzzled, he casually picked up one of them and saw a mural depicted on it. But when he clearly saw what the mural contained, Feng Yuan narrowed his eyes and said,

"Mo Li?"

"Correct. We’ve found something new related to King Mo Li in the newly discovered ruins. According to the contents of those murals, we can be certain that there must have been someone at King Mo Li’s side who was closely related to the White Wolf Deity, even to the point of perhaps being the one who divided the levels of spirit beasts back then."

Qi Chen and the others, curious, took the photograph from Feng Yuan’s hand and looked at it for a while before Qi Chen turned to Feng Yuan with a strange look and said,

"What have you been up to this time?"

"What do you mean what have I been up to! I haven’t done anything, okay!"

"Don’t tell me the person in there isn’t you. It’s Agunas, isn’t it? I remember you saying that Agunas ceased to exist after the Mythical Era and shouldn’t have existed until you hatched it a while ago, right?"

Seeing Qi Chen staring at him, Feng Yuan replied with dissatisfaction,

"I don’t have time for such things! Plus, Lorraine Tower and the others haven’t had the time either. If there was any contact, it was just a chance encounter when I dined with Lorraine Tower last time."

"Wait... why would you chance upon King Mo Li?"

"How would I know which era Lorraine Tower was taking me to? If anyone’s to blame, it’s Lorraine Tower."

"What are you talking about?"

The professor looked puzzledly at Feng Yuan and Qi Chen, while Elder Li calmly asked Feng Yuan,

"What exactly are you talking about? It seems from your conversation that the person in the mural is you?"

"If you were to only consider what’s depicted, then yes, it indeed is."

Although he was reluctant to admit it, Feng Yuan himself understood that the person in the mural was likely himself. Seeing Qi Chen’s scornful glance, Feng Yuan sighed and said,

"It is me and also not me."

"To be precise, I have never interfered in the affairs of King Mo Li to date."

"At that time, we were simply taking Mo Li for a stroll through some uninhabited regions, after all, according to history, Mo Li never set foot outside the Great Li Dynasty..."

Feng Yuan sighed. Qi Chen, still puzzled, said,

"I found it strange when you mentioned it at the time; why would you do such a thing for Mo Li?"

"We got along well, and it wasn’t like we were going to any dangerous places."

"What about this mural then?"

Looking at the photograph, Feng Yuan thought for a moment and then said,

"It must be due to some special reasons that the future interfered with the present."

Seeing everyone’s puzzled expressions, Feng Yuan pondered for a while and then explained,

"Simply put, among countless possible futures, I might one day return to the Great Li Dynasty and do those things for Mo Li, but..."

"If I choose not to do so, these things should just disappear on their own."

Elder Li looked at Feng Yuan doubtfully and said,

"Why are you so certain it is you?"

"Secret."

Feng Yuan smiled and looked toward the mural, at the figure that resembled himself, wearing a hood and dressed in the Wolf God’s Robe. Floating in front of this figure was a book that was identical to the pitch-black ancient book that belonged to Feng Yuan.
