Chapter 429: Chapter 211: Mother Tree (Part 3)
There is a very mysterious Double Heart Contract between the Golden Dragon Jade Phoenix Jade Pendants, originally intended for a pair of lovers to meet daily without suffering the pain of longing. She had asked merchants from the Cultivation Plane about this item, and they candidly responded that these pendants were extremely precious.
Generally speaking, such Double Heart Contracts are signed by a pair of lovers, based on their souls to draft the contract. However, this Double Heart Contract is engraved on a pair of jade pendants, making it possible for anyone to use. Each lover holds one piece, and no matter how far apart they are, as long as they remain on the same plane, they can instantly teleport to each other! It’s absolutely incredible!
The strength of this effect left Su Jiameng in awe, marveling at how it seemed almost too powerful for this world. Over the past few years, as she roamed around completing tasks, she used Teleportation Arrays frequently. Regardless of the distance, some time would always be required. But with these pendants, the teleportation time between the two parties was shortened to the minimum! In critical moments, it was practically an unbeatable weapon.
When Gu Ningzhi left, Su Jiameng handed him the "Dragon" piece of the pendants and instructed him on how to use it to notify her. After enduring five years of waiting, just when she thought she would have to keep waiting, did someone finally bring her good news?
Thinking of this, Su Jiameng did not delay further and quickly sent Lucy a message, "Lulu, I have something urgent and will be away for a few days. Let’s discuss things after I return, regardless of what happens."
Lucy was dumbfounded by Su Jiameng’s reply, having just returned and now saying she had to go away again. Could her lies be any more obvious!
Rather than calling it a trip away, it was more like making it clear she’s escaping! What’s more important is that just after saying "See you at the Mecha Fighting Arena after school," Xiao Meng heartlessly "requests leave to escape"; isn’t it a bit too inconsiderate!
Lucy was convinced Su Jiameng was using it as an excuse to flee, and Su Jiameng didn’t have the time to explain. She kissed her little buns on the face twice and said to Su Mo and the others amidst their stunned expressions, "There’s news from Gu Ningzhi, I must quickly pack and head there. This time, it seems to be a big catch, and going will yield significant rewards."
"Gu Ningzhi?" Changxi was slightly startled before realizing what Su Jiameng was referring to and immediately said, "Master, quickly head over. With Su Mo and I at home, we will certainly ensure the two young masters are completely safe. We hope the master returns soon."
"Yes, I’ve always been assured of that." finished Su Jiameng, she apologized slightly and crouched down to make eye contact with the two little guys.
"Once this is over, I’ll spend more time at home with you two, but now it’s urgent, and I have to leave for a few days. Mom promises she’ll be back in no more than five days. You must listen to Uncle Changxi and study hard, make sure you keep up with training. If you make progress when I’m back, there’ll be gifts."
The two little buns exchanged glances, their eyes swimming with disappointment. They’re not fools, quite the opposite—they’re very smart. Hearing mom say these words means she’s leaving again. Who knows how many days before she returns... As for her mom’s promise of five days?
Honestly, neither bun held out much hope. But they’re obedient and sensible, not prone to throwing tantrums. So they nodded obediently, saying, "Don’t worry, Mom, we’ll definitely listen to Uncle Changxi and Aunt Su Mo... You should also stay safe and come back quickly... We’ll miss you."
After receiving their promise, Su Jiameng gave each a kiss, then steeled herself and darted away to her room to prepare the items needed for the task. The little buns were left stunned, mouths agape—Mom... just disappeared suddenly? Did she vanish unexpectedly?
While puzzled and confused, a warm hand suddenly pressed on their heads, and they looked up to see the usually stoic Uncle Changxi showing a hint of softness, saying to them, "Your mom is very powerful. If you don’t want to always be bound by her promises, anxiously and helplessly waiting for her return, you should grow up and become strong quickly..."
Huaifeng’s eyes were dazed, trying to digest the meaning of Changxi’s profound words, while Huaixi, after a moment of bewilderment, cleared his gaze and clenched his fists, saying, "Uncle Changxi, will my brother and I become as powerful as Mom? Just like how she vanished just now... If we manage to do that, could we help Mom?"
