“It’s finally open.” Lin Long heaved a sigh of relief.
Mu Xuan retracted his hand, exhaustion tainting his usually indifferent face.
“Mu Xuan,are you alright?” Yao Si rushed over to support him.
“Mmh,” Mu Xuan replied, pulling her into his embrace. He slouched down in exhaustion, leaning almost his entire weight onto her. With a deep exhale, he reassuredher.“I’m fine.”Her heart clenched as she tightened her hands around him.
“Xiao Yu, lets go home!” Lin Long wasn’t the least bit interested in their lovey-doveyactions. He hugged Lian Yu and headed toward the portal with excitement.
“What are you doing?” Before Lian Yu could react, she was already midway to the portal. Both surprisedand embarrassed, she swatted his arm away while chiding, “I can walk, put me down.”
“Yes,yes,yes, my Xiao Yu.” Lin Long broke into a radiant smile. Yet even though he agreed verbally, he tightened his hands around her. He looked as satisfied as if he had conqueredthe whole world.
Yao Si could almost see pink hearts surrounding him. Theirbickering seemed paradoxically harmonious, and a term floatedinto her mind: illicit love affair!
Don’t ever come back,heh!She tightly clenched onto her nanny dad.
o(︶︿︶)oJust as the two were about to enter the portal, the white glow suddenly started to flicker. They seemed to have met with a barrier that bounced them back.
Lin Long was caught off guard, and both of them were flung backward. Fortunately, Mu Xuan went forward on timeand cushioned their fall with an air wall.
“What’s wrong?” Yao Si asked in confusion. “The portal failed?”
“That’s not it!” Lin Long helped Lian Yu stabilize. His gaze filled with shock and cautiousness whenhe focused on the portal ahead. “Someone is coming over from the other side.”
What?
Yao Si stilled, unable to process his words. It took her a while to figure out that since the portal was to Lin Long’s world, thenwhat he said meant…other ancestors were coming over!
Her heart sank, and she glanced over at the portal. As expected, itsuddenly started to morph as though someone was trying to breakthroughit.
Less than a minute later, a pale hand appeared, fumbling about experimentally before gradually emerging from within.
An unfamiliar man appeared at the entrance of the portal. He was clothed in a black retro-looking robe made from an undecipherable material that was smooth and form-fitting.
The man had a healthy complexion that was horrifyingly white. His head was slightly lifted. As iffrom habit, helooked both solemn and unapproachable. His chilly gaze stood out in particular. It didn’t seem like anything in the world was worthy enoughfor him.
Yao Si couldn’t help feeling guarded against him; he seemedto have come with ill intentions.
“Are you the oneIassigned to search this universe?” The man’sgaze narrowed as it fell on Lin Long; his head remained lifted inwhat looked likecontempt.
Lin Long stilled, frowning in displeasure. “That’s right, I’m Lin Long. And you are?”
The newcomersmirked, dismissing his question; instead, he started caressing the ring with a rose carving on his right thumb.
Lin Long’s eyes went widesuddenly as though he had came acrosssomething unbelievable.“You-you are…” He went down on one knee, performing a greeting Yao Si had never seen before and salutingpolitely.“Grand prince!”
Grand prince? Who’s that?
(⊙_⊙)
Everyone was fullof confusion.
The pompous man nodded, his expression still one of disdain.“We have received your report so I’m here to verify.”
“Verify?” Lin Long stilled slightly, fullof confusion.
What wasthere for him to verify? Even though he hadn’t completed the mission, it wasn’t grave enough to warrant a punishment. Besides, in all the years, many other clansmen hadbeen assigned the same mission and not one of them hadmanaged to complete itsuccessfully.
There also wasn’t a reason for the clan to be prejudiced against him. It certainly wasn’t serious enough for them to assign someone of the grand prince level to head downfor him!
“You found your contractor?” theman asked, not intending to explainhimself.
Lin Long glanced over at Lian Yu unconsciously before nodding.“Yes, grand prince.”
Theman smirked, then turned to Lian Yu with a frown before moving his gaze to Yao Siand Mu Xuan. Suddenly,he stilledand his body flashed, appearing right before her.
His gaze fixed on Yao Si, or rather the marking on her forehead.
“You are a contractor too!” His eyes lit up instantly when he caught sight of her, andhis lips curved upwards into a smile. “Thereareindeed two contractors here!” The flamein his gazestarted to intensify even as he tried to suppress an overwhelming surge of excitement.
Yao Si took a step back instinctively. Thegrand prince was making her uncomfortable!
“Great, that’s great!” His smile brightened,and he divertedhis satisfied gaze back to Lin Long.“Even though you are an ordinary clansman, you have accomplished an amazing feat. You can just wait here,no needto report back.” He waved his hand, attempting to suppress the excitement within him as he glanced around at the surroundings.“From today onwards, this universe belongs to us.”
Yao Si felt her heart sink. This seemed like anan inauspicious omen.“What do you mean?”
“I meant it literally,” the grand princeexplained in a rather jolly mood.“Our clansman have been traveling through different universes our whole livesjust to find their contractors,but the success rate is far too low, not even hitting 5%. There has never been an instance when two contractors were found in the same universe. No! There could even be three of them!”
He grew increasingly excited.“This has never happened before,sothere might be four,five,six…or even more! This universe is of utmost importance to our race,which is why Iwas sent here to verify the phenomenon. If it is true, our whole race will head over.”
Yao Si’s heart tightened. She was certain itdefinitely wouldn’t be just about finding partners.
“What are you going to do with this universe?”
“To aid our people in finding their contractors, naturally we would have to capture everyone!” the grand prince replied flippantly.
“You intend to invade our universe!”
F*ck! A war was on the line!
His words stunnedeveryone present.
Just one ancestor could destroy their world,let alonea whole bunch of million year old single dogs!
Who in theiruniverse could stop them?
“It’s just a small universe, so what’s the big deal?” The grand prince narrowed his eyes, disregarding the magnitude of waging a ward on the whole world. Instead, he waved at Lin Long.“Wait here, I’ll head back to announce the good news.”
He turned as he spoke, preparing to enter the white portal.
“Stand there!” Yao Si shouted out anxiously.
Mu Xuan reacted swiftly, and with a flash of his hand, abright light smashed against the portal, destroying it instantly.
The grand prince definitely couldn’t go back!
