Chapter 244: Chapter 3 News

"How’s it going? Any news of Lock Fan?" Lu Hong swung his sword, repeating the motion over and over, hundred times, thousand times, continually honing the skill of a Great War Master.

On the other side of the token, Caesar’s voice was quite somber, "Still nothing, but Lando has returned to the Normandy dimension. I sent Nightingale to talk with him; Nathia’s skill scattered them into spatial rifts. Lando found his way back, but Lock Fan, being weaker, remains missing."

"Keep in touch if there’s any news." Lu Hong closed the communication channel and continued practicing his sword swings.

Half an hour later, Lando quietly approached from behind, and Lu Hong didn’t notice her at all.

Then Lando hugged Lu Hong forcefully, "Little man, did you miss me?"

"Alright, alright, can’t you see I’m practicing my swordsmanship? I’m covered in sweat; let go of me first." Lu Hong slightly smiled, shaking his head at Lando who, despite nearing fifty, still acted so playfully.

"No way." Lando’s voice was coquettish, and then she hit them both with a ball of magic water, "Does this count as a good wash?" Soaked through, Lando was particularly alluring.

"Cough, cough!" Before Lando could start flirting, another woman’s voice sounded close by.

"Hey, hey." Not needing to look to know it was Danni, Lando protested, "Today is Friday, he’s mine."

Danni ignored Lando and said to Lu Hong, "There’s news about the elven lady you were looking for, under the request of the Elf King, she’s now preparing to head to the Umbra dimension."

"She’s coming out?" A smile crept on Lu Hong’s lips, "She actually dares to come out, that’s great, that’s great!"

"What? Is she your enemy?" Lando asked curiously.

"Yes, she killed my apprentice, you tell me, does she deserve to die?" Lu Hong’s eyes filled with hatred. If Miaomiao continued to hide within the Elf King’s Court, there truly would have been no chance, but this turn of events was a heaven-sent opportunity that must be seized firmly.

"Just an elf, I can send people to help you take her out." Lando said, "The Umbra dimension is a chaotic one. Even the empire dares not station troops there, and the dimension’s level isn’t low. What if you run into trouble?"

After the battle in the northern border, Lando grew increasingly fond of the young man before her, wishing she could keep him in her mouth and never let him go.

"Let him go." Danni understood Lu Hong’s relationship with Xius, and this vendetta could only be settled personally by him for his soul to find solace.

"Yeah, yeah, yeah." Lando, still a notch below Danni, gave in, knowing that after all, Danni was the First Branch, "But if the little man encounters danger or something happens, don’t blame me for coming after you with a vengeance."

Danni didn’t respond to Lando, but stepped back to leave some space for the two.

However, after Danni’s interruption, Lando and Lu Hong were no longer in the mood for flirting.

"This old woman ruins a perfectly good mood," Lando muttered under her breath.

"Right." Lu Hong reminded her, "Have you all continued investigating the matter of the Sea Tribe?"

Lando rolled her eyes, "My little man, which task that you’ve entrusted to me have I not handled perfectly?"

"That said, it’s been two years, and my subordinates have been searching the seas tirelessly, to no avail. Do we really need to keep this up?" Lando was slightly discontented, "Moreover, since you’ve already asked me, how come I’ve heard reports of people from the Natural Sect, and another unidentified organization also investigating on the high seas? How many people exactly did you hire to look into this?"

"Ah..." Lu Hong gave an awkward smile, "The ocean is vast; I was just worried your forces might be insufficient."

"Hmph!" Lando snorted softly, "You ask for my help but seek others as well, how much do you mistrust me?"

"Don’t put it like that. The Sea Tribe matter is of grave importance. If the Naga Queen were to mobilize the Tidal Orb, the water would surge back, plunging the fertile lands of the Continent of God’s Grace into an abyss of disaster. Not only the Sacred Empire but the Snowy Region and the Beastman Empire would ultimately be unable to escape this calamity."

"Are the Sea Tribe really that terrifying?" Lando listened, her spirits lifted, "Where did you learn all this?"

"From an ancient memory, I guess," Lu Hong made up an excuse casually.

Of course, this did not escape Lando’s keen perception. Lying under the watchful eye of a Third Transition Peak expert was a very difficult thing to do, but Lando did not delve into it and simply nodded, "The Sea Tribe might be formidable, but the Sacred Empire is not to be trifled with either. Once they are faced with the crisis of extinction, the entire foundation of the Proluo family will be mobilized. Who knows how much strength this old family hides behind them."

"Let’s hope so," Lu Hong sighed lightly. The Sea Tribe enjoyed the natural blessings in the sea, and with their endless Magic Power, they would become the nightmare of all legions.

The two then chatted about Lock Fan for a while. After all, Lock Fan was Lando’s nephew, and despite Lando’s significant efforts, there was no trace of him to be found.

"Do you want to come with me to see Weiwei?" After Lu Hong quickly packed his gear, he was ready to head to the Ambra Plane in advance. To ambush the elves, favored by nature, was a formidable task.

"Me, go to the Green Forest, the stronghold of the Nature Sect?" Lando’s eyes widened, "Hey, don’t think just because Danni that old woman doesn’t attack you to your face, she really won’t kill me. If I dare step half a foot into the Green Forest, I’ll definitely be tortured to death by a bunch of old immortals."

"Alright, then I’ll go myself," Lu Hong shook his head. "I still don’t understand the grudge between you and the Nature Sect."

"What else could it be but a clash of creeds? They worship nature and life, we worship death and destruction. We’re natural-born archenemies," Lando shrugged.

"Give me a teleportation gate; I need to go to the Green Forest."

"Please, if I had the coordinates to Green Forest, do you think Hell Demon King Caesar wouldn’t be leading his Demon army there tomorrow?"

"Yes, yes, yes, I’m asking too much of you, I’ll go myself, alright?" Lu Hong fled in a hurry under Lando’s disdainful gaze.

Heading to the Green Forest was simple. The small town still enjoyed the protection of the Nature Sect, and all Lu Hong needed to do was summon someone from the Nature Sect to arrive there successfully.

"Little brother, you seem to be in a good mood today," the voice of the Ancestor Dragon sounded in Lu Hong’s heart.

"Dragon Bro, you’re finally awake?" Lu Hong was thrilled. The Ancestor Dragon had fallen into a deep slumber two years ago after teaching Lu Hong the Soul Split Skill, so waking up now was indeed doubly good news.

"This Soul Split has weak Soul Power; waking up after two years is already considered quick," the Ancestor Dragon said. "Where are you off to?"

"To the Green Forest Plane. Dragon Bro, have you been there before?"

"Green Forest...." the Ancestor Dragon pondered for a moment then said, "If it’s the Green Forest from my time, I’ve been there."

"Is that plane strong?" Lu Hong asked curiously.

"Strong. The Green Forest was just a step below the level of Continent of God’s Grace. At that time, I was assigned by the War God to support the Green Forest. Hell was attacking the plane, and the will of the Green Forest sensed the threat of annihilation. It nurtured a Heavenly God of nature not weaker than the Earth Boundary realms, sweeping through a million Demon soldiers. In the end, it took the Hell Demon King himself to kill it. However, this Heavenly God of nature left behind a Life Orb. Where did I bury it? Buried in... buried in... um..."

The Ancestor Dragon said awkwardly, "Sorry, it’s been so long, I forget."

"No problem, I don’t really need it anyway," Lu Hong wasn’t greedy for treasures. With a heaven-defying system that had flown away, who cared about such trivial things?

"That’s not the point. Listen to me, it’s best if you find this Life Orb. It contains the secret technique of life. Although it may not help you professionally, it can grant you the ultimate understanding of life itself. You would also become the favored one of the Green Forest, a true favorite, like a son of the Green Forest plane. You might not be able to control the power of an entire realm, but at least within this plane, you would be invincible."

After hearing the explanation from the Ancestor Dragon, Lu Hong rather hoped to give the Life Orb to Danni; she might need it even more.

"Hey, why would you give such a precious thing to someone else?" The Ancestor Dragon could see through Lu Hong’s thoughts and quickly advised, "Strength, such things are safest kept with oneself, not to mention you need to activate the Skill, Heavenly God Descent. That kind of Skill is about unleashing your potential, burning your life. You don’t feel it now, but when you’re old, you’ll know what it means to be decrepit."

"Let’s talk about it later, you also forgot, didn’t you?"

The Ancestor Dragon muttered, "Maybe I’ll remember when I get there."

"Then we’ll talk when you remember."

With the Ancestor Dragon awake, perhaps this trip to Ambra would be a bit smoother.
