Chapter 1741: For A Better Reunion When We Meet Again

Lin Huang felt much more determined after leaving closed-door cultivation this time.

He did not continue to elevate the ten God’s Figurine’s Combat Souls’ combat strength.

He had consolidated over 70,000 Dao seals in the virtual realm and attracted millions of minor dao-level Raptors, which ended up as Origin Energy for him to devour. Although that vast amount of Origin Energy was sufficient to elevate his ten God’s Figurine’s Combat Souls all the way to major dao-level with Origin Energy to spare, he did not do that after giving the matter some thought.

He was primarily considering the trip into the mystic territory that would take place soon.

Among minor dao-level powerhouses, God’s Figurine’s Combat Souls with 30,000 Dao seals would not be considered weak. They would be able to help conceal his real ability in the early stages.

If the God’s Figurine’s Combat Souls attracted even more powerful enemies, he could still handle them without having to expose all of his abilities.

However, if he elevated his God’s Figurine’s Combat Souls to major dao-level, they would in turn attract major dao-level enemies.

Although, with his ability, he was no longer afraid of major dao-level powerhouses, he hoped that he could stay as low profile as possible instead of standing out.

One must know that, in the vast universe, a major dao-level combatant would be considered a powerhouse, but not a top powerhouse.

There were more powerful existences above major dao-level.

Lin Huang did not hope to be targeted by such an existence.

For safety purposes, he chose to take things slowly.

The simpler one was, the longer they would live.

The death of countless talents and geniuses in the past had verified the truth of this saying.

…

Time flew by. Three days had passed.

It was finally the day of departure.

All of the Sword Alliance’s upper echelons gathered in the largest meeting room that could hold 1,000 people on the first floor.

Lin Huang glanced around at the crowd.

Sword 1 was smiling, but Lin Huang knew that he had been feeling down.

He had been away for close to three years investigating the female Raider who had caused Great Heaven’s death. However, his efforts over the three-year period were to no avail.

On one hand, he blamed himself for not discovering anything useful. He thought that the hope of avenging Swordmaster Great Heaven was slim.

On the other hand, he felt guilty for having wasted Lin Huang’s confidence in him.

Not only did he not contribute to the Sword Alliance’s development during those three years, he had used much of the Sword Alliance’s manpower and intelligence gathering resources, slowing everyone down.

However, Lin Huang did not know that he had been having such complicated emotions all this time.

He comforted him twice, but Sword 1 did not seem to feel much better.

Later on, Lin Huang assigned him some tasks to keep him busy and prevent him from being mired in his negative emotions.

Lin Huang very soon had his eyes on Yang Ling and Hong Zhuang.

The two of them had yet to tie the knot officially.

Yang Ling claimed that he wanted to find Hong Zhuang’s brother so that he could attend their wedding.

Throughout the three years, he had used countless channels and many resources. However, his efforts were to no avail as well.

This made Lin Huang even more suspicious that Hong Zhuang’s brother might be fictional.

He was not jealous at all when he saw these two showing off their love occasionally. He only thought that Yang Ling was quite pitiful.

Such an intelligent man seemed to have been completely bewitched by Hong Zhuang.

In the presence of this woman, his intelligence quotient would drop to lower than zero.

Lin Huang looked away from the two people that he was rather worried about, and then looked at Mr. Fu who was standing next to him.

Mr. Fu still had his mustache. He looked like he was in his 30s now, and had a light smile on his face.

Lin Huang had always treated this master of his like family.

He personally hoped to bring Mr. Fu along with Lin Xin and Lin Xuan. No matter where they went, they would always be together.

However, since Mr. Fu had made up his mind, Lin Huang respected his decision.

Just like what Mr. Fu said. Family would be family regardless of whether they were together or not.

It was just like many families on Earth. Many kids who grew up in small cities would eventually settle down in big cities. They would get married and have kids in the big cities and build their own families. That did not mean that they were disconnected from their parents.

Some were thousands of kilometers away from their parents, but they were still family.

Mr. Fu noticed Lin Huang’s gaze. He also seemed to have figured out his thoughts, so he patted his shoulder.

“Don’t worry. Visit us when you guys have time.”

At that moment, Lin Xin, who had been holding onto Mr. Fu’s arm, looked at Lin Huang as well.

The siblings looked at each other and smiled.

Lin Huang treated her as his real sister.

Given that he was a traveler, she could only be considered to be his past life’s sister.

Moreover, she had awakened the memory of her past life. She was no longer that same pure Lin Xin either.

However, their relationship did not wane. Instead, they cherished each other’s company even more now.

Regarding Lin Xuan, the brother that he adopted, Lin Huang had never treated him as an outsider.

No matter his form as a child in the past or his current form as an adult, Lin Huang had been trying his best to give him the same treatment as Lin Xin. He tried his best not to treat them differently.

Naturally, Lin Xuan felt the care the siblings gave him. He had been giving back in his own way.

Although Lin Huang and Lin Xin were bonded by blood, he firmly believed that they were his family.

Lin Huang secretly teased himself after looking away from Lin Xuan.

‘Perhaps this is the mutual attraction of lonely souls…’

He glanced across to his old friends, including Yi Zheng, Yi Yeyu, Leng Yuexin, Li Lang and Chan Dou.

He still remembered everything they went through together.

He clearly remembered the first time he saw Li Lang. He had an undercut and wore a white suit, as well as a showy red tie.

There was only one word to describe his first impression of him—Showoff!

He also remembered the first time when he participated in the Hunter Assessment; Yi Yeyu was a rather irresponsible, arrogant assessor. It was also his first time coming in contact with transcendent powerhouses, as well as his first time being attacked by transcendent powerhouses.

He also remembered the time when he participated in the Hunter Assessment; he would send messages to Yi Zheng to disturb him as he felt bad bothering Yi Yeyu, asking all sorts of cultivation questions and news about the Hunter Association.

He remembered the first time he treated Leng Yuexin to a meal. It was street food and her first time eating by the street, but the two had a great time.

…

Lin Huang glanced around at everyone present.

He had interactions with most of them. He had more than one interaction with some of them, and had even become good friends with him.

He remembered each and every interaction and story, no matter long or short, thrilling or mediocre.

However, nothing would last forever. It was time to say goodbye.

“I won’t beat around the bush.”

“I hope that after we leave, the Sword Alliance will continue to grow steadily. You all will fight to grow it bigger and better, recruit more talents and geniuses, and prepare and train more talents for the organization that we’ll be establishing in the universe.”

“I also hope that we can establish a new organization in the universe and stand out!”

Lin Huang paused for a moment as the crowd applauded loudly.

He only spoke again when the applause died down.

“I’m happy to have known everyone here. Thank you for all of your support throughout this time. I hope that we’ll be able to reconnect again if there’s an opportunity in the future.”

“Lastly, there’s something I’d like to say to all of you.”

“Goodbye isn’t the end, but necessary for a better reunion when we eventually meet again.”
