Chapter: 5813
Clever Lin Wan'er was listening to Ye Chen's conversation with Chen Zekai, and she had already guessed Ye Chen's plans and arrangements.
Then she asked Ye Chen, "Lord, when you go to Ten Thousand Mountains, can I come along with you?"
Ye Chen said, "Ten Thousand Mountains are mostly uninhabited places now. If Lin Miss is going with me, it will be very unsafe."
Lin Wan'er puckered her lips and spoke in a low voice, "Are you saying I'll slow you down?"
"Not exactly...," Ye Chen reassured her, "I just think that as a young girl, it's not suitable for you to go to such a dangerous and primitive place."
Lin Wan'er said sincerely, "If I'm going with you, Lord, as long as we don't have direct confrontations with Wu Feiyun, I'm sure you can keep me safe."
As she spoke, Lin Wan'er added, "To be honest, my father once told me that the sealed-off meditation place has intricate arrays and complex mechanisms. Only someone who is determined to find it can discover the location, Lord. Although you are exceptionally talented, but array magic is unpredictable, Lord. If you bring me along, I might be able to lend a hand in helping you."
Ye Chen naturally understood this logic.
With Lin Wan'er along, it's like bringing a super genius strategist who is not only smart but also experienced and knowledgeable about many things. Many things may be unclear to her, but she might just be able to see through the subtleties.
However, Lin Wan'er has no physical strength, and as a 17-year-old weak girl, going into the depths of Ten Thousand Mountains is like venturing into a primeval forest alone.
Ye Chen hesitated for a moment, and Lin Wan'er spoke frankly: "Prince, you previously mentioned that Long Sheng had hinted at your parents possibly finding the secret to eternal life. I think that my father, who once followed Master Gong in Ten Thousand Mountains, might have also found some secrets left behind by him. As such, I feel a connection with Ten Thousand Mountains just like you do. I want to accompany you and not just help you share your concerns. I also hope to use this opportunity to bring back the spiritual energy of my father and revisit the place where he practiced under Master Gong's guidance all those years ago, which would fulfill his long-held wish."
Lin Wan'er's request left Ye Chen unable to refuse.
Ten Thousand Mountains may be treacherous for a weak woman like Lin Wan'er, but with her own strength, the challenge becomes negligible.
Thinking of this, Ye Chen agreed and said: "Since that's the case, we'll go together when the time comes."
Lin Wan'er nodded enthusiastically and excitedly: "Thank you, Prince! I'll definitely try not to bother you!"
Ye Chen smiled slightly and sat down beside Pu Cha's mother, saying: "Let's wait here for a bit. When it's light out, we'll dig up this sapling and head to the airport."
Lin Wan'er nodded and sat down on the other side of Pu Cha's mother, looking at the calm and peaceful lake water, whispering: "Prince, do you think that recent storm was an illusion or reality?"
Ye Chen thought for a moment: "It should be an illusion. What do you think?"
Lin Wan'er thought for a moment and said: "I think it's as if it's between reality and illusion."
Ye Chen furrowed his brow: "Can't we just choose one or the other?"
Lin Wan'er shook her head: "It seems to be half-true and half-false, true and false, false and true."
Ye Chen smiled: "We can ask the villagers around us tomorrow morning if they heard any thunderstorms last night. If it was real, the villagers shouldn't have been unaware of it."
Lin Wan'er nodded lightly and muttered to herself: "It seems like it won't be that simple again..."
Having said that, she looked at Ye Chen and smiled: "I might be making things too complicated for myself."
Ye Chen nodded slightly and didn't think much about it. He glanced at the camping equipment he had brought along when they got off earlier and asked her: "Miss Lin has been traveling so long without taking a break, do you want me to set up the tent for you to take a nap first?" JrNovels.com
