Chapter 1387: Chapter 746: Breaking Barriers (9k)_5 Chapter 1387: Chapter 746: Breaking Barriers (9k)_5 “Shall we rest earlier together?”
Upon hearing this, Chen Mobai’s expression hesitated.
He wanted to refuse, but seeing Shi Wanyu trembling as if her entire body was shaking, he sighed in his heart and ended up nodding.
“You go to bed first, I’ll go wash up.”
Hearing his words, a glow suddenly blossomed across Shi Wanyu’s gently flushed cheeks, and her eyes brightened as she nodded.
Chen Mobai hadn’t bathed for a long time, and after he entered the bathroom, he couldn’t help but slap his own forehead.
He was somewhat surprised at himself for nodding earlier.
Perhaps it was because it had been too long since he last did that kind of thing, and he couldn’t bear to refuse Shi Wanyu…
After thinking of several reasons, Chen Mobai quickly finished showering, gathered the water droplets from his body into a water sphere, and placed it into the water bucket, then left the bathroom.
The room’s lighting had changed to a warm, pale yellow. Chen Mobai saw that Shi Wanyu had already curled up under the quilt. Although cultivators no longer feared cold, the blanket was merely a thin one, revealing more clearly her mature, feminine allure.
Chen Mobai didn’t realize when he got into the bed, gently lifted the quilt, and saw Shi Wanyu turned sideways, slightly trembling in a light black nightgown.
The nightgown covered most of her body curves, but the full, rounded legs under the dress were directly and plainly visible to him.
Just then, Shi Wanyu turned around, her cheeks blushing and her eyes shy yet bright, like stars in the dim light.
“Turn off the light!”
She said, somewhat flushed and embarrassed. Chen Mobai gently nodded and soon, the room was enveloped in complete darkness.
The next morning, as usual, Chen Xiaohei went downstairs, but unexpectedly it was Chen Mobai making breakfast.
“Your mom isn’t feeling well, I let her rest…”
It took a moment for Chen Xiaohei to realize after she left the house that although her mom wasn’t highly advanced in cultivation, being a ninth layer Qi Cultivator, she had always been healthy.
Although she and her mother hadn’t spent much time together, she had never seen Shi Wanyu sick.
Could it be a serious illness?
Worried, Chen Xiaohei was about to go back and ask.
But soon, she realized something, at the flower shop’s entrance she listened intently for a while and couldn’t help but blush and embarrassedly turned and left.
In the evening when Xiaohei returned, seeing Shi Wanyu’s rosy complexion and a nurtured look, she felt secretly happy.
After breaking down the barriers between the parents, this family became even sweeter and warmer for Chen Xiaohei.
Chen Mobai also rarely relaxed a bit himself.
He began to follow Che Yucheng’s instructions, contacting Wang Shuye, and from him obtained the list of public officials from all the Immortal Gates in the Dance Tool Dao Academy lineage, across all the Three Great Halls and Grotto Heaven Blessed Lands.
This list, Wang Shuye had actually prepared for him a long time ago.
Chen Mobai contacted them, starting from the Golden Core Masters one by one.
Fortunately, his name was globally recognized; over the phone, they were all very courteous.
Chen Mobai didn’t converse deeply, just got acquainted and arranged a meeting during the Immortal Gate transition at the end of the year at Wangwu Cave Heaven.
To that extent, basically everyone understood the implications and promised to attend.
Time gradually passed, and one morning Chen Mobai woke up and let go of the quivering, voluptuous beauty in his arms and booked a flight ticket to Wangwu Cave Heaven.
Since he had to transfer in Red Sandstone City, he had to leave a day earlier.
Both mother and daughter were naturally reluctant to see him go.
But they understood that their man was off to handle major affairs, so they could only watch him leave.
Honestly, Chen Mobai almost indulged himself in this Land of Tender Love.
In this three-story small building, he experienced an unprecedented satisfaction and warmth, pleasure, and happiness.
This sense of being completely filled, both physically and mentally, made him feel that living like this his entire life wouldn’t be a bad idea.
Had it not been for Wang Shuye calling to urge him, he might not have decided to go to Wangwu Cave Heaven so soon.
In the VIP waiting hall of Yu Wood City, Chen Mobai was sitting with his eyes closed, reminiscing about the beautiful moments he had experienced recently, when suddenly his brows furrowed and he opened his eyes.
He looked towards the door, where an invisible black insect was flying towards him.
It was a mechanical puppet bug.
As a Rank-3 Puppet Master of the Immortal Gate, Chen Mobai knew at first glance that even he couldn’t create such a finely crafted puppet bug with his own skills.
With Chen Mobai’s cultivation level, he naturally captured the puppet bug with ease.
However, he knew that it was the puppet’s master who had intentionally allowed him to discover it.
The puppet bug carried a piece of information. After connecting it to his Heavenly Calculation Bead, Chen Mobai quickly deciphered it.
It recorded a place name.
Upon seeing it, Chen Mobai’s pupils couldn’t help but tighten.
That place was…
There were two locations in Yu Wood City that Chen Mobai had always forbidden himself to visit or delve into, given their profound implications.
One was the prison previously guarded by Miao Wanliang, but Chen Mobai had already broken that rule because of Chen Xiaohei.
And the other was the facility where Qing Nu and others were raised as part of the Immortal Sprout nurturing program during their childhood.
Although Lan Haitian had said that the facility had been dealt with by the relevant authorities and that there would no longer be any clues,
Chen Mobai always felt that there were still many secrets hidden there.
And now, the place recorded on this puppet bug was that location.
Chen Mobai thought for a long time, tempted to ignore it.
But from this puppet bug, he guessed who the person inviting him was.
Within the Immortal Gate, the only ones superior to him in Puppetry Technique, besides Che Yucheng, was the mysterious middle-aged puppeteer he had encountered at Guda Courtyard.
It was also he who had informed Chen Mobai that Shi Qing was the reincarnation of the Soldier resolved by Master Huakai.
That person was almost certainly the legendary Master Xin Ji.
Chen Mobai had thought that after the puppet’s self-destruction last time, he had completely disappeared from Yu Wood City.
It turned out he had a backup plan.
After a moment’s thought, Chen Mobai decided to get up and meet this person.
After all, he needed to ensure that no force capable of threatening his daughter remained.
While pondering, he stood up, entered the restroom, and then left the waiting hall through the Underworld Array with a series of teleportations.
After several teleportations, he approached the sealed experimental base for the Immortal Sprout nurturing program.
However, being a cautious person by nature, Chen Mobai did not enter with his true body but instead controlled a Formless Puppet to go in his stead.
As Lan Haitian had said, the experimental base was indeed empty and desolate, with all devices and tools removed, leaving only open rooms, boxy and stacked against a wall without windows, only doors, resembling prison cells.
Chen Mobai’s Formless Puppet utilized its scanning function to check all enclosed hidden spaces here, confirming there was no one around.
Just as he was about to leave, an old-fashioned LCD screen embedded in the wall suddenly lit up with electricity.
“Representative Chen is quite overly cautious, to meet using a puppet!”
From within the LCD screen, this person with his back to Chen Mobai spoke with a synthesized electronic voice.
“I am Yi Yuan, just speak directly, I need to catch a transport.”
Facing a stranger, Chen Mobai naturally did not admit his identity, and this time he did not simulate his own face with the Formless Puppet, instead randomly using the face of a cultivator from the Tianhe Realm.
“If that’s the case, then we can’t proceed with the discussion. The secrets I’m about to share can only be heard by Representative Chen.”
Hearing this, Chen Mobai didn’t entertain him further and directly commanded the Formless Puppet to turn around and leave.
Just as he was about to fly out of the experimental base, the screen suddenly flickered a few times, as if it was glitching.
“Ah, ah, ah, wait…”
But Chen Mobai turned a deaf ear and swiftly flew out.
