C600 Lee Yuanye's Catchphrase

"Woo Zhengyang, how did this Azure Sun world come to be? How long have these buildings been here?"

"Well..." Liang Yeqiu hesitated at Woo Zhengyang's question.

"Is it a tough question?" Woo Zhengyang asked, puzzled.

"Not exactly. This Azure Sun world has always seemed to exist, though it wasn't always called that. It was renamed after our ancestors took it over. As for these buildings, they've been here for a long time, but we don't know exactly how long..."

Woo Zhengyang finally understood why Liang Yeqiu looked so awkward when he asked the question—it was because their ancestors had seized it. On reflection, Woo Zhengyang realized he should have known better.

Time passes, and with it, the rise and fall of various martial mansions and generations of practitioners. If the Azure Sun Martial Mansion had been around since ancient times, it would likely be much larger by now.

Anyone with a bit of knowledge wouldn't have asked that question. Unfortunately, Woo Zhengyang wasn't one of those people, which put Liang Yeqiu in the awkward position of admitting his ancestors' actions.

While Woo Zhengyang was still feeling embarrassed, Lee Yuanye had already circled back and asked, "Liang, how did this Azure Sun world come to be? How long have these buildings been here?"

Woo Zhengyang was caught between laughter and tears, while Liang Yeqiu was on the verge of tears. What was going on today? Both of them kept asking this question in turn. Had they planned to come and embarrass the Azure Sun Martial Mansion?

"What's the matter, Master Liang? Is there something you can't talk about?" Woo Zhengyang asked again, noticing Liang Yeqiu's gloomy silence. It was clear to Woo that Lee Yuanye was more serious than ever, indicating a significant connection to this place.

"It's not that..." Liang Yeqiu replied with a wry smile, recounting the story of his ancestor's takeover of the Azure Sun world.

After hearing this, Lee Yuanye felt a twinge of guilt. However, he pressed on, "So, you really know nothing about this place? Is there anyone who knows something, or any ancient records or writings left by ancestors?"

Liang Yeqiu shook his head, "It seems not. Why, Young Master Yuanye, is there something strange here?"

Hearing Liang Yeqiu's response, Lee Yuanye's expression dimmed a bit, and he replied, "Nothing, I'll keep looking around."

With that, Lee Yuanye took to the sky again. "I'll take a look too!" Woo Zhengyang, still feeling a bit awkward, quickly followed suit.

Both of them flew off, leaving Liang Yeqiu standing there, looking frustrated. His expression turned cold as he wondered what those two were up to, certain that it couldn't be anything good.

Woo Zhengyang was an expert at Martial King level, able to soar through the sky effortlessly, while Lee Yuanye could only ride his sword, unable to match Woo's speed. So, Woo didn't bother chasing Lee; instead, he wandered around aimlessly.

As he wandered, Woo suddenly realized he was in the heart of the Azure Sun Martial Mansion. Was it really okay for him and Lee to roam around so freely? But since he was already there, there was no turning back.

"Well, might as well enjoy this unrestrained freedom! Plus, I can see what makes this place so special that Lee cares about it so much," Woo thought, feeling justified in his exploration.

The towering skyscrapers were far more extensive than Woo had imagined. The streets and alleys crisscrossed in a clear pattern. From above, the entire complex seemed to be designed according to a specific blueprint, with precise variations in height and size.

Much like Lee's Invincible Cannon Car, the architecture here contained many elements Woo couldn't comprehend. It was evident that whoever designed this place was quite ingenious. Unfortunately, just as Woo couldn't grasp the concept of science Lee often spoke of, he also couldn't decipher the deeper meaning behind these structures.

Unlike Woo Zhengyang, Lee Yuanye seemed to have some understanding of these structures. After flying around for a while, he began to systematically land on the rooftops of various buildings, pausing briefly before moving to the next one.

After spending half the day doing this, Lee Yuanye approached Woo Zhengyang, his expression back to normal.

"Zhengyang, have you ever seen buildings like these?"

"When I traveled from the Azure Sun Martial Mansion to the Bewilderment Dragon Stream, I did see something similar from a distance."

"That's not what I meant. I'm asking if you've ever seen anything like this before, or if these buildings remind you of anything?"

"Should they remind me of something?" Woo Zhengyang asked, puzzled.

"Well, it seems you're not from the same place as I am. But I've found something familiar," Lee Yuanye said with a hint of excitement.

"Something familiar? Are you saying the creators of these buildings are like you?"

"Exactly! You've never seen skyscrapers like these, have you? Haha... This is a hallmark of my world. Stick with me, and maybe one day I'll take you back to see what a high-tech world looks like!"

"What? You can go back?"

"Maybe someday. You know what they say, always hold onto hope!" Lee Yuanye replied, a bit exasperated.

Woo Zhengyang was speechless. Holding onto hope sounded like a shot in the dark, but seeing Lee Yuanye's complex mood, he decided not to press further. Instead, he asked, "Did you discover anything else?"

"I discovered ovens for baking, grilling, and roasting. Man, this guy like me knows how to enjoy life even more!"

"So, where is this guy now?"

"How should I know? This place has been here for who knows how long, maybe even before the world's great upheaval. For all I know, he might have kicked the bucket ages ago..." Lee Yuanye said, suddenly changing his expression and falling silent.

"What’s wrong?"

"I just thought of a serious problem!"

"What problem?"

"Even if this place was established by the previous owner of the Azure Sun Martial Mansion, it should have been a few hundred years ago."

"So what?"

"A few hundred years ago, our previous world shouldn't have been like this! There are many things here from my era, which means that guy should be from my time too. But after he came to this world, he somehow got here way before me... This doesn't make any sense!"

Lee Yuanye pulled out his catchphrase again...
