Chapter 797: 797 Master of Highest Heaven Tower, have been waiting for you for a long time [Part 1]

Even though it was shattered beyond recognition, and covered with mottled scars.

But as the sister of Yan Wang Hejia, how could she not recognize his sword.

It seems that Prince Yan’s Sword indeed fell into Atlantis.

Fortunately, when she went to Atlantis this time, she specially brought the fragments of Prince Yan’s Sword given to her by Kang Mufeng and Zhu Qingxian last time.

Prince Brother...

Ye Wanlan closed her eyes and clenched her fingers.

She would definitely bring him back and set foot again on the Shenzhou Land Continent.

"What?" The old lady didn’t hear clearly.

"It’s nothing." Ye Wanlan returned to her senses, her smile faint, "I was just a bit curious, why does this place need a warding?"

"Sigh, our place is a small city, far from the Royal City, located at the edge of Cangyuan Country." The old lady looked worried, "Therefore, there are often some ghosts appearing, and since we haven’t awakened our full lineage, it’s not easy to deal with these ghosts."

"Ghosts?" Ye Wanlan nodded, "Are they the humans drowned at sea?"

"Indeed." The old lady nodded heavily, "These drowned humans are trapped at the sea bottom, unable to disperse for a long time."

Understanding dawned on Ye Wanlan, she tilted her head and asked in a low voice, "Auntie, do you know if there is a passage directly connecting Atlantis near Yan Mountain?"

"Yan Mountain?" Khor Peiqing frowned and shook her head, "Yan Mountain lies in the Northwest, which was originally a desert with very little water source. Even if Atlantian people were on a mission or escaping, they wouldn’t appear there."

For the Atlantians, water is both a help and an obstacle.

With water, power multiplies exponentially.

But without water, power gets restrained.

"But Ah Lan, even I don’t know many things." Khor Peiqing exhaled, "Yan Mountain might not lack a passage left by Supreme Wisdom, anything is possible."

Ye Wanlan’s eyes flickered slightly.

"Xiao Yu, stay at home." The old lady stood up, "Grandma should go to the City Lord once."

Hearing these words, Lan Yu’s face changed: "Grandma! You mustn’t go, we can move to another city to live, even if it’s in the wilderness, you mustn’t go."

"There are more ghosts in the wilderness, we can’t bear it." The old lady had already reached the door, comforting her, "If by chance I really can cure the City Lord’s illness, our living conditions would improve a lot."

Lan Yu exclaimed excitedly: "But grandma, even the doctors from the Royal City are at a loss, going there would be a dead end for you!"

The old lady said nothing.

She had once escaped death; otherwise, forty years ago, she would have been executed by the King following the former queen’s death.

"Senior." Ye Wanlan suddenly spoke, "I think we can make a deal."

Though the conversation between the old lady and Lan Yu only revealed a snippet of information, she could deduce the whole story.

The old lady was stunned: "A deal? Miss, except for this small house, I have nothing for a deal with you."

"Of course, you have something invaluable to me." Ye Wanlan made a circle with her fingers, gently knocking the table, "I will treat you, ensuring the safety of you and your granddaughter from ghosts and outsiders, and you give me that black fragment, is that acceptable?"

If Lan Yu hadn’t brought her and Khor Peiqing home, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

The old lady was shocked, turning suddenly.

At this moment, she seemed to see that calm and composed former queen from the past again.

Also those blue eyes, like the ocean, possessing a strong power to soothe people’s hearts.

"No, absolutely not!" Lan Yu shouted, "Miss, you just arrived here, you don’t know our City Lord’s character. He’s ruthless, moody, and killed countless; all the healers who treated him before were killed."

"Oh?" Ye Wanlan raised an eyebrow, "Then I definitely must meet him."

Lan Yu panicked: "Sister, if you need that fragment, I can give it to you, just don’t..."

"I won’t gamble with my life." Ye Wanlan smiled faintly, "You saved me, so of course, I have to save you."

She could help, so she would.

Because for her, it’s just a matter of course.

Moreover, one of her purposes this trip is to awaken the lineage and gain stronger power.

"Auntie, wait here for me." Ye Wanlan wiped her hands, "I’ll be right back."

Khor Peiqing’s expression was solemn: "Be careful with everything."

Global Center.

The Heaven-reaching Tower closed, and the Global Center suddenly became much quieter.

The central district of the main city was still playing various advertisements, with people coming and going in the malls as usual.

But this was only the surface quietness; in truth, undercurrents were surging, but ordinary people couldn’t see the darkness hidden beneath the calm.

Especially within the Supernatural Affairs Office, apart from the competition for the next director, the employees’ workloads had also multiplied these days.

Not only at the Global Center, but supernatural incidents have frequently occurred outside of Shenzhou as well.

Wen Chaosheng hadn’t had a good night’s sleep for three days, but he had no time to rest, examining the latest case files with dark rings under his eyes.

Until there was one more person in the office.

Startled to see Yan Tingfeng, Wen Chaosheng jumped up from his chair and sat back down on the floor: "You you you you... why are you here?!"

"Wen Chaosheng!" The voice of the director of the Supernatural Affairs Office roared from afar, "In broad daylight, why are you shouting? Did you see a ghost?"

In their line of work, they’re used to seeing ghosts.

"Bo-... Boss, I... I didn’t see a ghost, I..." Wen Chaosheng opened his mouth wide, "I saw a giant cockroach, and it could fly, it really scared me."

The director of the Supernatural Affairs Office was exasperated: "You’re not afraid of ghosts, but you’re scared of a cockroach!"

Wen Chaosheng breathed a sigh of relief, suddenly feeling that something was wrong, hurriedly lowering his voice: "I absolutely didn’t mean to say you’re a giant cockroach, I was just making an excuse to fool my boss."

Kidding, this seemingly frail silver-haired man is actually the Jidao Sect Leader.

The Jidao Sect Leader’s notorious reputation spreads far and wide, and since Sister YN isn’t here, he only has one little heart and can’t take it.

Yan Tingfeng didn’t mind, getting straight to the point: "I know you have a way to go to Atlantis."

Wen Chaosheng was stunned: "You want to go to Atlantis?"

"Hmm." Yan Tingfeng replied calmly, "Lead the way."

Wen Chaosheng: "..."

He really couldn’t understand why Yan Tingfeng was so sure he had a way.

"But did Sister YN agree?" Wen Chaosheng cautiously asked, "She wouldn’t let us go, and your body isn’t..."

Yan Tingfeng raised his eyebrows slightly, still the same two words: "Lead the way."

His tone was very gentle, like spring rain melting, yet the sense of oppression in his words was extremely strong.

"Alright, alright." Wen Chaosheng wiped the sweat on his forehead, muttered, "Then when you see Sister YN, don’t say it was me who led you."

Atlantis was no secret among the higher-ups of the Supernatural Affairs Office, and since the director was grooming Wen Chaosheng as the next successor, he naturally wouldn’t hide it from him.

And the passage to enter Atlantis was in the inner sea of the Global Center.

"Just so you know, it’s my first time here too." Wen Chaosheng hastily said, "I don’t know what will happen later, nor do I know where you’ll end up in Atlantis after you go in."

Yan Tingfeng responded with a calm "Hmm": "Let’s begin."

Wen Chaosheng, according to the ancestral method of the Supernatural Affairs Office, opened the passage.

The blue light burst forth, instantly swallowing Yan Tingfeng’s figure.

Wen Chaosheng couldn’t even utter a single word before he couldn’t see Yan Tingfeng anymore.

The passage completely closed too, unable to be opened again for another five years.

And at the moment the passage opened——

In the depths of Nanling Sea, someone suddenly opened his eyes, showing a peculiar smile.

"Master of Highest Heaven Tower, I’ve been waiting for you for a long time."
