Chapter 1518: Chapter 781: Guidance Book: Unlimited
“This business trip might take a bit longer…”
Chen Mobai said his farewells to Meng Huang that morning with a hint of apology in his tone.
“Hmm, it’s okay, I will wait for your return,”
Meng Huang responded warmly.
It has to be said, among all the close female friends, the emotional comfort she provided was the most soothing for Chen Mobai.
With her, Chen Mobai felt no pressure at all.
After leaving Meng Huang’s house, he headed to the airport.
The Sky-Mending Group had already taken military flight equipment from Wangwu Grotto Heaven to the far north early in the morning.
Chen Mobai, however, needed to return home for some matters and meet two people, so he was scheduled to leave two days later.
But as a Golden Core Master, he could fly the final segment of the journey to the far northern Grotto Heaven on his own.
With a roar, he was already up in the sky.
Sitting by the window on his own seat, Chen Mobai watched as Wangwu Grotto Heaven below became smaller and smaller, eventually disappearing from his view, sinking him into deep thought.
Over these two days, he had bid farewell to each of his friends in Wangwu Grotto Heaven.
Yan Bingxuan had hinted that the environment in the far northern Grotto Heaven was suitable for her cultivation.
But Chen Mobai could only pretend not to understand and parted with her at the street intersection.
After all, if Yan Bingxuan had gone with him, he would have found it difficult to stay away from her for long periods, needing to spend a lot of time by her side.
And this time, Chen Mobai had purposely left on his own accord.
After all, being in Wangwu Grotto Heaven, a core area of the Immortal Gate, it would not look good if he secluded himself there for a long time, and it would put a lot of pressure on his subordinates.
But once he was in the far northern Grotto Heaven, he could manage his affairs in Tianhe Realm like Yu Wood-Danxia, spending more time there.
Especially at this critical moment when he was about to reach Perfect Core Formation, he felt it was the wisest and most appropriate choice to leave the Immortal Gate center through Nangong Xuanyu’s takeover of the Hall of Orthodox Law.
“Wait for my return after my Nascent Soul Formation!”
This was the last thing Chen Mobai said to Yan Bingxuan.
On the outskirts of Yu Wood City.
Inside a prison cell guarded by the Military Department.
Gu Changfeng was intently carving a piece of root sculpture; he had been brought here nearly sixty years ago, and aside from eating and sleeping, he would pick pieces of roots and carve sculptures to generate income for the Military Department.
The prisoners’ cultivation levels were sealed, and there was no spiritual energy available for cultivation.
But as a Foundation Establishment Practitioner, his hands were steadier than other prisoners, and he was now carving a monkey, the coiled roots gradually taking detailed and lifelike shape under his knife.
For practicing Forbidden Technique, he was sentenced to sixty years imprisonment, just a year away from completing his sentence and being released.
Because of this, he had grown increasingly hopeful and eager for the day he would see daylight again.
Just as he was about to carve the most crucial part, the eyes, a sound of footsteps approached.
“Inmate 40756, someone is here to see you.”
The door was opened, and a Military Department cultivator informed Gu Changfeng.
“Yes, officer.”
Nearly sixty years of hard labor had conditioned Gu Changfeng to immediately set down his tools and stand up to follow the officer.
Who could be visiting him?
Gu Changfeng was puzzled; he was alone in the Immortal Gate and had no relatives who would visit him.
He had communicated with some old classmates before, but after the incident, they had all distanced themselves from him.
Soon, Gu Changfeng discovered that he was being taken to an interrogation room.
He walked in and instinctively sat down, and his hands were immediately restrained by a restriction.
“Chief Chen from the general group will be here shortly.”
The Military Department cultivator in the room announced and then placed a Mind-reading Talisman on the wall.
Chief Chen from the general group?
Who was that?
Wasn’t Lan Haitian the new head of the Sky-Mending Group?
With a heart full of questions, Gu Changfeng saw a fair-looking young man walk in, accompanied by two Military Department cultivators, a man and a woman.
Hey, he seems familiar?
Upon seeing Chen Mobai, memories that had been buried for decades in Gu Changfeng’s mind began to resurface, and he quickly matched them to a very old scene.
It was in his Evergreen Pharmacy.
A brief conversation between himself and the fair-looking young man before him.
After Lan Haitian came to him, Gu Changfeng knew he couldn’t escape, and then made a decision.
[You don’t need to come here looking for her anymore, I’ve expelled her from the sect!]
Memories in his mind completely cleared up, Gu Changfeng vividly remembered the incredulous expression on Chen Mobai’s face when he had said those words to him who had come looking for Qing Nu.
“Long time no see.”
Chen Mobai’s voice rang out, and as Gu Changfeng heard it, he looked up at him with shock and suspicion in his eyes.
“You…”
“This is Commissioner Chen from Kaiyuan Hall and head of the Sky-Mending Group, there are some matters he needs to inquire about, just answer truthfully.”
Miao Wanliang, who was responsible for the cell, immediately introduced Chen Mobai’s identity and the reason for his visit, and after Gu Changfeng’s suspicions were confirmed, his pupils dilated in shock.
It hasn’t even been a century.
Not only has he achieved Core Formation, but he is also a key figure in the Three Great Halls.
The formerly tender and naive young man had grown to such a level and status!
Amidst his shock, Gu Changfeng remembered the past scene when the young man had talked about compensating for the loss of his medicine pool, asking him not to expel Qing Nu from the sect, and how he had coldly scoffed and mocked him mercilessly.
