【Law of the Abyss】

The door was closed and Mu Bei stood at the door for a long time.

"Come in."

He pushed the door open and saw the tall figure of the old man at a glance. He had his back to him, with his hands clasped behind his back.

"Better?"

"Yes."

The old man turned around and looked at him with sharp eyes.

"Go ahead."

Mu Bei made up his mind not to tell anyone about that incident. He selectively told the whole story, omitting only everything that happened after that man appeared.

The old man kept looking at him, and Mu Bei looked normal. Anyway, what he said was true and he didn't make anything up. He just omitted the key parts.

"Do you know who you met?"

Mu Bei shook his head: "Isn't it a little girl? Her name is Ying Kezhi."

The old man smiled.

"Girl? What kind of girl has the ability to play you guys around like this?"

"Then... who is she?"

"The Bubble Flower is a rare beast that existed a long time ago. It often transforms into the appearance of a girl and is good at creating illusions and confusing people."

No wonder it’s called Phantom Flower, that’s why there are so many bubbles.

"But how did it appear here?" Mu Bei asked sincerely.

The old man lowered his eyes and sighed.

"It's not safe here. Are you... ready?"

Huh? Mu Bei was very surprised.

"What...preparation?"

"Be prepared to fight and defend your homeland."

"Yingbo, I don't understand."

"You don't need to understand. Do you remember what you said when you first met me?"

What did he say when I first met him? Yes, he wanted to...

"I want to be the head of the family." Could it be this sentence? Mu Bei asked tentatively.

"Yes, remember what you said, we will help you with the rest."

Mu Bei left the old man. He felt that everything happened too fast. It was him who asked them to go back, and now it was also him who said he would help them. It was simply too unreal.

Lei Yinuo noticed that his expression was different from usual, so he asked, "What's the matter? Why did Ying Bo look for you?"

Mu Bei told him what the old man said, and Lei Yinuo patted his shoulder heavily.

"Okay, you're really lucky!"

"Don't you find it strange?"

"What's weird?"

“It’s changing so fast.”

Lei Yinuo smiled and looked at Mu Bei.

"You said you were a very clear-headed person, but why are you so confused now? Let me ask you, what is your purpose in coming here?"

“Find support and be the head of the family.”

"Yes, then did he say he would support you? Did you achieve your goal? Why do you care what others think or how they change? It has no effect on you, right?"

After hearing what Lei Yinuo said, Mu Bei suddenly realized, yes, as long as the goal is achieved.

As for how it was done? It was not something he could control, nor was it something he should think about. Thinking of this, he suddenly felt enlightened.

Seeing that he was in a better mood, Lei Yinuo was also happy. He didn't expect that he could comfort him.

The two chatted and laughed for a long time, and Feng Yin came in.

"Ying Bo, let me tell you, we'll set off tomorrow."

"Where?"

"Looking for Yingfeng."

After saying that, Fengyin left.

Lei Yinuo's gossiping nature started again.

"Hey, have you heard of Shadow Wind?"

Mu Bei shook his head, "Not really sure, you know?"

Lei Yinuo said mysteriously: "I do know a little bit. I heard my brother mention that the Feng family has such a secret team called Shadow Wind. The people in it have very high cultivation, but they all have a fatal weakness."

"What weakness?"

Mu Bei's curiosity was aroused.

“They can’t see.”

Mu Bei couldn't fall asleep while lying on the bed, but Lei Yinuo next to him fell asleep immediately.

There were not many empty rooms in Yingbo's house, and this was the only storage room left. After some tidying up, they could barely fit two beds in it, one for Mu Bei and one for Lei Yinuo.

Mu Bei lay in bed, tossing and turning, unable to fall asleep. He kept thinking back to what Lei Yinuo had just said, "Fatal weakness, invisible?" How powerful could a team with a fatal weakness be?

He closed his eyes, and fell asleep while thinking. What he didn't know was that as soon as he fell asleep, a man appeared in the room out of nowhere.

The man placed his right hand on his chest and saluted the boy who was sleeping on the bed.

"Lord Heiyuan, I have been waiting for you for a long time."

A blue light flashed on the boy's forehead. He suddenly opened his eyes, sat up, and looked at the man in front of him with a gloomy face.

"Sombre, you did a great job."

The man showed a trace of joy on his face, "Thank you for your praise, sir. I am unworthy of it."

The boy frowned slightly: "Okay, stop acting."

"Yes." The man's face returned to normal and he looked respectful.

"You weren't discovered, were you?"

"Don't worry, you taught me the Space Rift Technique, no one can detect it."

"How is everything going? I'll keep it a secret in advance to avoid alerting the enemy."

"Don't worry, it's almost done. No one else knows about the adults' affairs except me."

"Yeah." The young man nodded slightly and looked at the man in front of him.

"Black Shadow, you are my most loyal subordinate. I have always trusted you. How is the investigation going?"

A trace of guilt flashed across the man's face: "Lord Abyss, we are still investigating. After all, it has been too long, and it will take time."

The young man smiled: "Five hundred years have passed, so a little time won't make a difference."

"Yes, understand."

The man glanced at the boy. He was still as calm as before, but maybe it was because of this body, he didn't look as scary as before. Instead, he had a bit of childish cuteness.

Thinking of this, the man couldn't help but smile.

The young man glanced over and said, "Black Shadow, you've overstepped the line."

"Yes, I deserve to die." The man knelt on the ground with a thud.

"I am so happy that Lord Abyss has returned. For a moment..."

The young man waved his hand and said, "Go away. Do not show up without being summoned."

"Yes." The man looked gloomy and soon disappeared.

The young man looked at the place where the man disappeared with a complicated expression.

"Hey, why are you sitting up? Are you feeling unwell?"

As soon as Lei Yinuo turned over, he saw Mu Bei sitting on the bed, and he spoke with concern.

When the boy heard this, his back stiffened and he quickly lay back on the bed.

Lei Yinuo saw him lying down, muttering a few words, and fell asleep again.

The next morning, he saw Mu Bei got up. Thinking about what happened last night, he couldn't help but ask curiously.

"Are you OK?"

Mu Bei looked at him strangely, "What can I do?"

Lei Yinuo patted his chest and said, "I'm glad you're okay. You looked so creepy sitting on the bed with your back to me last night. I was scared to death."

Mu Bei's expression froze when he heard this. He looked at Lei Yinuo and said, "I was up last night?"

"Yes, you won't forget it. You were sitting on the bed alone with your back to me. I called you but you didn't respond. Then you lay down again."

Lei Yinuo thought of something and then said, "Are you sleepwalking? I heard that people who sleepwalk cannot remember what happened in their sleepwalking."

Mu Bei's heart skipped a beat. He thought of a possibility, but he always thought it was a dream. Could it be?
