Chapter 495: Chapter 486: The Secret of Blue Star_3
Xu Lingjun sighed, "You seem to know a lot."
"That’s because I’ve also been there."
Han Yun City laughed heartily twice, then said, "You know, Emperor Blood Heaven Slayer gets stronger with each fight. It needs to improve itself in life-and-death battles, and what’s more perilous than the depths of a Secret Realm?"
He explained in detail, "In fact, I’ve dived deep into the Secret Realm several times, but unfortunately, like those Grandmasters, I sensed a huge life-and-death crisis after reaching a certain distance. My instincts told me that if I went further, I would definitely die... so I always stopped at the edge, not daring to proceed hastily."
Xu Lingjun’s eyes brightened slightly, "You want to invite me to team up?!"
"I don’t want to enter with those experts from the Imperial Family; it’s too troublesome. They always protect me from behind, never giving me a chance to act. Teaming up with you would be more interesting, and I’d feel more at ease entrusting my back to you. Doesn’t it seem very exciting?"
Han Yun City’s eyes sparkled, his spirit seemed somewhat elated, and he said, "Back then, you and I teamed up for the first time in a Secret Realm. Now we’ve both reached bottlenecks in our strength. Teaming up again to explore the Secret Realm, this time going deeper..."
Xu Lingjun casually tossed aside the fishing rod and asked, "Do you have detailed intelligence? The information gathered over more than a year of exploration..."
"Of course, but it’s all with my father. This matter is very secretive. In fact, besides you, me, and my father, others have explored deeply several times, but they don’t even know what they’re looking for."
"What are we waiting for? Let’s go!"
Xu Lingjun rose to his feet.
He recalled the words of Sun Yangwei back then.
Blue Star contains something the Mysterious races of the heavens desire...
He spoke earnestly, and as one facing death, his words should be virtuous. Xu Lingjun was certain his words were undoubtedly true.
And now the Mysterious races of the heavens have been driven back.
The Great Xia Empire won’t be troubled by the Mysterious races of the heavens for a while; if only they could make a trip into the Secret Realm.
The worst outcome...
Even if they gain nothing, the chance for Xu Lingjun to break through to the Profound Realm is enticing enough.
Without delay, the two headed straight for the Imperial City.
At this moment...
Han Xu Yang was handling state affairs, a pile of memorials stacked high in front of him.
Seeing Xu Lingjun and Han Yun City arriving specially...
He sighed helplessly, "Xiao Cheng, if you’re really feeling idle, why not help your father with the memorials? Your father is overwhelmed with work. You used to have your sister help, but now you don’t let me ask your sister, and you won’t help me either. Luckily I’m not a Martial Artist; otherwise, I would really hit you."
"But compared to the mundane affairs of the Great Xia Empire, Commander Xu Lingjun and I both think that the news within the Secret Realm is more important... After all, to be coveted by the Mysterious races of the heavens, the secret inside the Secret Realm must be extremely significant!"
Han Yun City said, "If we could grasp this secret, maybe we could control the entire Blue Star, Father. Maybe you could experience being the Master of the Blue Star before you die!"
Han Xu Yang said speechlessly, "I really can’t tell if you’re trying to please your father or curse him. Never mind, the information is in the inner chamber; go check it yourself."
"Thank you, Your Majesty!"
Xu Lingjun responded respectfully, not even completing his salute before Han Xu Yang dragged him inside.
He said, "Anyway, sooner or later, we’ll be family. With such high achievements, to prevent your merits from overshadowing the sovereign, you either marry my sister, or my younger sister... or simply marry both..."
Xu Lingjun said speechlessly, "Your younger sister just turned one year old!"
"In over ten years, you’ll only be in your thirties, still young and vigorous. My father may not be a Martial Artist, but he can still have another daughter in his forties or fifties... Don’t tell me you’re not as good as him, already worn out in your thirties..."
Han Yun City spoke without reservation.
Han Xu Yang could only smile helplessly, waving his hand at Xu Lingjun to signal him to go in quickly.
Yet inexplicably, a bit of anticipation emerged in his heart...
Little Cheng had been there a few times; he had no expectations.
But Xu Lingjun...
This is someone who has continuously created miracles, even destroying the Chi Yu mysterious clan. Who knows... maybe he really could...
"Blue Star, this is our homeland. Even if there’s a secret, it must be in the hands of us natives."
His eyes showed a determined look.
