C590 Who Is Li Xiaolong?

"Intuition? You trust your intuition so much. Did you foresee that I might make a move against you? As you can see, I'm unstoppable here!" Woo Zhengyang said with a slight smile, looking at Lee Yuanye.

As he spoke, a cascade of meteor-like artifacts sliced through the air, swirling around the two of them...

Their time together hadn't been particularly long or short. From the moment Lee Yuanye led the young members of the Heavenly Mirror Pavilion into the scene, to their opposition, and now to sharing tea, Lee Yuanye had shown many sides of himself. Yet, the more he revealed, the more elusive he seemed to Woo Zhengyang.

Now, Lee Yuanye was bringing up intuition again, which Woo Zhengyang found baffling, prompting him to probe further.

Hearing Woo Zhengyang's words, Lee Yuanye smiled slightly, not even glancing at the swirling artifacts around them, and said nonchalantly, "You won't make a move against me. I trust my intuition, just like I sense there's something extraordinary about you."

"Oh? What else does your intuition tell you?"

"I also sense... you and I are not from this world," Lee Yuanye said, looking at Woo Zhengyang with deep meaning.

Woo Zhengyang's expression faltered for a brief moment, though it was enough for the observant Lee Yuanye to notice.

"Haha..." Lee Yuanye said triumphantly, "I told you, my intuition is never wrong."

"Is that so? Then tell me, if I don't belong to this world, which world do I belong to?"

"I can't predict that, after all, I'm not all-knowing! Everyone has their secrets, but... maybe we're from the same world?"

"The same world?"

"Bruce Lee!"

"What? Who's Bruce Lee?" Woo Zhengyang asked, puzzled.

"Then we're not from the same world. Life is as lonely as snow..." Lee Yuanye mused, seemingly out of nowhere.

"Alright, let's get back to business. For thousands of years, no one has been able to enter the Profound Mountain. What makes you think you can? What's this opportunity you mentioned?"

"This opportunity is like a loophole. Based on countless observations from the past, the Heaven Shrouding Great Array has a weak period every ten years!"

"Weak period?"

"Yes, during this time, our strength increases, while the demonic beasts in the Myriad Desolate Mountain become weaker. It's the best time to cross the mountain. Plus, with my genius invention, we'll definitely reach the edge of the Human Ancestral Land!"

"Invention? What invention?"

"My invention is earth-shattering, mind-blowing, and will completely change your perspective. You'll see it in a few days, and it will blow your mind!"

Not interested in Lee Yuanye's endless rambling, Woo Zhengyang pressed on, "And after we cross the Myriad Desolate Mountain? Didn't you say the Human Ancestral Land isn't a place just anyone can enter?"

"Of course, but do you think I'm just an ordinary guy? Are you an ordinary guy?"

Woo Zhengyang realized that once this guy got off track, it was hard to rein him in.

"Let's get serious!"

"Seriously speaking... it's all up to fate... The Human Ancestral Land has always been mysterious..."

Woo Zhengyang was speechless and interrupted Lee Yuanye, "So, you don't actually have a complete plan?"

Lee Yuanye scratched his head and chuckled, "There's not much we can do about it. We know so little about the Human Ancestral Land! But I can promise you, if there's a way to leave this world, the Profound Mountain is definitely the key..."

"So you're saying you want to use such a flimsy plan to offset those two hundred treasures? Are you sure you're not messing with me? Aren't you afraid I'll just finish you off?"

"You won't, because you're definitely interested in this plan... Besides, Mr. Zhengyang, don't underestimate me. Do you really think I'm that reckless? Since I dared to come here with you, I have my own ideas and plans."

"Now I'm really curious."

"Don't forget, Mr. Zhengyang, I've always been looking for a way to leave this world. The Heaven Shrouding Great Array is impenetrable for me, but as for this place..."

With a sly grin, Lee Yuanye produced a small, dark wooden token.

A flash of black light, and Lee Yuanye's body turned into a black dot and vanished...

At the same time, a light curtain appeared where Lee Yuanye had just been. Within it, Lee was already standing outside the Misty Mountain Range, looking quite pleased with himself. He said, "So, Mr. Zhengyang, did I live up to your expectations? I'll head back and get things ready in the next few days. Wait for me to bring you that ticket!"

With that, the light curtain vanished.

If Woo Zhengyang had any doubts about Lee Yuanye before, seeing him effortlessly leave this world erased them. Lee had proven his reliability and showed he was genuinely working hard to find a way out.

The long search for a way back to the previous world had suddenly taken a hopeful turn, leaving Woo Zhengyang quite excited. However, before leaving, he had many things to handle. After spending several months in this world, he had formed some attachments.

The path ahead was shrouded in uncertainty. Whether he could safely leave this world or if he would return to his previous one remained unknown. Even if he did make it back, could he ever return here?

Back at the Hundred Flower Palace, Rice was still asleep. Woo Zhengyang gently stroked her hair with affection. He then gathered Bing'er and the others to explain everything Lee Yuanye had said.

For Bing'er and her friends, as long as Woo Zhengyang was around, it didn't matter which world they were in. After being sealed for thousands of years, there wasn't much else they cared about besides him.

Woo Zhengyang hadn't gone to see Yun'er yet. For one, he didn't want to disturb her recovery, and for another, he hadn't figured out how to start the conversation.

However, Yun'er was recovering much faster than expected. In just two days, she transformed into her human form and appeared in front of Woo Zhengyang, looking lively and spirited.

This time, there was no avoiding it—he had to speak up.

Bracing himself, Woo Zhengyang explained everything, from his childhood and his journey into martial arts, to all the speculations about the two worlds that he and Lee Yuanye had discussed.

Yun'er, who had been thrilled about her transformation, lost all traces of excitement from her face as she listened to Woo Zhengyang's revelations.
