654: Chapter 654 A Hundred Years Ago

Xiao Weiqing's face was livid, causing Xiao Yue's petite frame to tremble.

"I... I..."

"I really don't know."

Xiao Yue started to cry.

She cried very sadly; her master was gone, and after finally waiting for the young master, who treated her well, he had now fallen into a deep slumber and would not wake up.

"Weiqing, don't blame Xiao Yue. All these years, Xiao Yue has never left his side; she didn't want this to happen either."

Wei Cangbai advised from the side.

"Wei Lan's vital signs are completely normal; she should be fine."

Xiao Weiqing looked coldly at Xiao Yue, eventually letting out a sigh.

"Grandfather, I'm leaving."

"Mm, I will watch over Wei Lan. I will notify you the moment she wakes up."

Xiao Weiqing left the Wei Family and Blue Star, boarding the spaceship back to the Holy Land.

Half a month later.

Holy Land, Sixth Heaven.

Manor No. 66.

"Master, welcome back."

"Yuanbao, help me submit the second phase of the mission; the target's corpse has already been turned in."

"Understood, Master."

"Master, the mission is currently under review. The results will be out within three days at the latest."

"Mm."

Virtual World.

"Didn't you go to do a mission?" Willie asked. "Are you looking for me because you encountered trouble?"

Xiao Weiqing shook his head. "Lord Willie, I have already completed the mission and just returned to the Holy Land."

"Oh?"

"Then what do you need me for?"

Xiao Weiqing said, "I would like to ask you about something, regarding my wife."

Xiao Weiqing briefly described Wei Lan's situation.

After listening, Willie raised an eyebrow slightly and chuckled. "No need to worry; this is a good thing."

"A good thing?"

"The longer your wife's Awakening lasts, the more powerful her Physique will become. Just wait."

"Will there be any problems after the Awakening? After all, it was gifted by someone else."

Willie said, "Basically, there won't be any problems. This situation is not rare in the Universe. The only thing to worry about is if the Red Moon Civilization you mentioned finds out about it in the future, and whether they will acknowledge it."

"You must know that the vast majority of Families care about such things. However, if there really is a worst-case scenario, you don't need to be afraid. As a member of the Holy Land, you are about to enter the Seventh Heaven; they won't dare to cause you trouble. Just make some compensation."

"That Family was wiped out. The Phantom Moon Star Lord I mentioned must have fled to our place."

Willie laughed heartily. "Isn't that perfect? That makes it even less of an issue."

Xiao Weiqing was somewhat helpless.

Willie was truly speaking from a position of ease; as an expert of the Undying Realm Third Realm, this matter was naturally nothing to Lord Willie, but it was different for him.

However, knowing that Wei Lan's slumber was not a problem, Xiao Weiqing finally felt relieved.

"Thank you, Lord Willie, for clarifying."

"You are welcome."

"Lord Willie, I will take my leave now. Someone is looking for me in the real world."

"Mm, go ahead. When you have time, spar with Lotte; he has started pestering me again recently."

"Understood, Lord."

Real World.

Sixth Heaven, inside Manor No. 66.

Xiao Weiqing frowned as he looked at the man in front of him. His first impression was that he was rude, barging directly into his territory.

His second impression was that the visitor meant harm.

"Who are you?"

"Did you kill Qi Hao?"

The man scolded.

Xiao Weiqing's face turned completely cold. He hadn't even questioned why the man had trespassed on private property without permission, yet the man was questioning him.

And it was about his mission, too.

The assessment mission to enter the Seventh Heaven had a higher level of confidentiality than even an S-rank mission in some respects. How did this person know?

In an instant.

Xiao Weiqing thought of several possibilities in his mind. Could it be because of that Heavenly Venerable mentioned by Qi Hao?

"I am asking you a question."

The man said sternly again.

Xiao Weiqing was expressionless. "Get out!"

"What?!"

"I said, get out!"

"According to Holy Land regulations, this is a private place. You trespassed without permission; what are you trying to do?"

The man sneered.

"Lecturing me on regulations."

"Let me tell you what the regulations are!"

Boom~~

Without warning.

The man punched toward Xiao Weiqing, and the space itself vibrated.

Xiao Weiqing's pupils constricted.

His figure flashed as he executed the Galaxy Evasion Technique, barely dodging the blow, his ears ringing from the resonance.

"Stop!"

Just then.

A figure appeared between the two.

"Hendrick?"

The man narrowed his eyes.

"Ge'e, what do you want to do?"

"Hendrick, this is none of your business. Move aside!"

Hendrick said, "Ge'e, do you know what you are doing? Xiao Weiqing is about to enter the Seventh Heaven, yet you attacked him."

"About to enter does not mean he is already there."

"Ge'e, Xiao Weiqing killing Qi Hao was an assessment mission assigned by the Holy Land. You should not vent your anger on him. Furthermore, Qi Hao killed his companions back then and betrayed the Holy Land; he deserved to die."

"Back then, you were already punished by the Holy Land for saving him. Do you want to repeat the same mistake now?"

Ge'e was silent. He stared at Hendrick for a few seconds, nodded imperceptibly, and then vanished.

"Are you okay?" Hendrick asked.

Xiao Weiqing shook his head. "I'm fine."

"Who is that Ge'e?"

Hendrick sighed and explained:

"Let me tell you about your mission this time."

"You know about it too?"

Xiao Weiqing was stunned. He had originally thought that even his virtual butler didn't know about this mission and that it should be highly confidential. Now he discovered that everyone seemed to know.

"I didn't know before; I just found out not long ago."

"Go ahead, I'm listening."

Hendrick nodded.

"To be precise, you were used as a pawn this time."

"By whom?"

"It's hard to say. I only know the general scope; it should be someone from the Undying Realm."

"What?"

"Undying Realm?"

Xiao Weiqing was completely confused.

"I'm just doing an assessment mission; why is it involved in so much?"

"This is a long story."

"A century ago, to put it simply, during a mission, the squad Qi Hao was in inadvertently discovered a treasure trove and found many valuable items."

"Then, members of their squad fought among themselves, and in the end, Qi Hao won."

"Valuable items? A law imprint?" Xiao Weiqing asked.

Hendrick was surprised. "You know?"

Xiao Weiqing nodded. "I know."

"I wrote it in my mission report. Before Qi Hao died, he begged for mercy and tried to trade a law imprint for me to let him go. I didn't agree. Then he made a deal with an Undying Realm from the Yao Race, but he still ended up being killed, and the law imprint was also taken."

"Thinking back, it's a bit of a pity."

Hendrick continued, "The law imprint was only one of the valuable items. Inside, there were things that even a Heavenly Venerable would be tempted by."

"Things that even a Heavenly Venerable would be tempted by?"

"What are they?"

Hendrick shook his head. "Except for Heavenly Venerable Lingyan, no one knows."

"Did the items fall into the hands of the Heavenly Venerable?"
