Monarch Of Time

Chapter 1012 Returning to the ʼNight star continentʼ

ʼʼOf course, you fatty. Did you think Iʼd ask you to leave your wife behind and come with me?ʼʼ

Fu Liʼs expression turned into one of relief, followed by a look of joy as he turned his gaze towards the distant ʼFloating Cloud sectʼ.

After all, he had already understood the dangers they were about to face in the central continent, so if Shun Long had said that it would be too dangerous to take Lan Jinjing with them, Fu Li would really be put on the spot.

On one hand, the plump youth wanted to leave the Desolate East and visit a vaster world, especially after hearing about it directly from Shun Long, but on the other, he wouldnʼt have felt right leaving Lan Jinjing behind to go to the central continent, even if it was just for a few years.

With a smile on his face, Fu Li looked at Shun Long and laughed loudly as he continued

ʼʼHahaha! Great! Brother, sister Liu, just wait here for me. I have to talk to Jinjing about this first and I also have to tell my father, my grandfather, and the Elders of my family. But it wonʼt take too long. I should be back in a few hours at most!ʼʼ

As he finished speaking, Fu Liʼs round figure exploded with the aura of a late-stage Heaven grade cultivator as he flew towards the ʼFloating Cloud sectʼ at full speed.

No matter what, this was the opportunity of a lifetime so Fu Li was going to do his best and convince Lan Jinjing to leave the sect.

As for his father, his grandfather, and the Elders of his Fu family, he wasnʼt worried about them whatsoever. Although it would be a bit problematic for the young master of their family to leave, the situation of the sect had deteriorated so much in the last few years that even if he stayed behind, there wasnʼt much he could do to change it.

If he could really do something that would benefit the Fu family in the future, none of them would object.

Of course, Shun Long knew that leaving the ʼFloating Cloud sectʼ wasnʼt going to be that simple even for someone like Fu Li. However, as long as heʼd made up his mind, other than Lan Jinjing no one else would be able to stop him.

And indeed six hours later, Shun Long saw 2 figures flying towards the entrance of the forest, each of them emitting an aura at the late stages of the Heaven grade.

The first figure was that of a familiar chubby youth with a bright smile on his face, while the one following behind him belonged to a beautiful young woman with long auburn hair and striking hazel eyes.

When Lan Jinjing spotted Liu Mei her entire face lit up, as the young woman lunged forward and hugged her tightly in an affectionate manner

ʼʼMei! Iʼm glad you are okay!ʼʼ

Fu Li had an awkward expression on his face as he looked at the two young womenʼs exchange, wondering if he had seemed just as anxious when he bear-hugged Shun Long earlier, before he turned to him and said embarrassedly

ʼʼAh, brother... the thing is, Jinjing has been worried for senior sister Liu ever since you left for the ʼNight star continentʼ. After all, the rumors about that place are enough to scare even the strongest cultivators of our Desolate East, let alone Jinjing and I.ʼʼ

Nodding his head, Shun Long smiled at Fu Liʼs embarrassment, while the auburn-haired woman looked at him and continued

ʼʼJunior brother Shun... ah! Or should I call you senior brother Shun now? Itʼs good to see you too!ʼʼ

Lan Jinjing had a playful look in her eyes as she addressed Shun Long, causing Liu Mei to shake her head next to her.

Of course, on one hand it made sense for Lan Jinjing to address him as junior brother Shun. After all, she had indeed been his senior sister back in the ʼFloating Cloud sectʼ.

On the other hand however, Liu Mei was like an older sister to her so could she really address Shun Long as her ʼjunior brotherʼ? Besides, Shun Longʼs cultivation was far beyond hers right now and he and Liu Mei had left the sect many years ago, so Lan Jinjing knew that it wasnʼt appropriate to use her seniority here.

Looking at the young womanʼs mischievous expression, Shun Long smiled and waved his hand dismissively as he said

ʼʼMiss Lan, you can still address me casually just like before. Whether you call me junior brother or senior brother doesnʼt really matter either.ʼʼ

Although he had only met Lan Jinjing a handful of times in the past, Shun Long had to admit that this auburn-haired young woman had left a relatively good impression on him. Her character was straight forward and she was someone who cared a lot about Liu Mei, treating her as her own sister.

She had also been the one to help Liu Mei when she decided she was going to leave the ʼFloating Cloud sectʼ in the past. Thus, as long as she was Fu Liʼs wife and Liu Meiʼs childhood friend, Shun Long didnʼt mind having the young woman accompany them.

After talking with Lan Jinjing a bit more and seeing that she was already prepared to follow Fu Li and Liu Mei to the central continent, Shun Long nodded before he turned his gaze towards the west, where the ʼNight star continentʼ was located.

Then, under Fu Liʼs and Lan Jinjingʼs astonished eyes, he slashed the air in front of him opening a massive space rift.

Moments later, the group of four young men and women disappeared from the small forest next to the ʼFloating Cloud sectʼ, leaving their first sect and the Desolat East behind.

...

As the thick trees and the vibrant greenery of the forest around them disappeared, a world of ice and snow welcomed them next followed by the cries of distant soldiers, as well as the roars of powerful magic beasts.

In almost an instant, they had arrived in the ʼNight star continentʼ.
