"So you've decided to go?" Lin Yi said after a sigh.
"Yeah …" Mengyao nodded. "But I can't agree too quickly- otherwise, I'll be like Xiaoxiao with no freedom when I go to the Palace of Darkness. I need to be able to come back and see you guys more often!"
"Haha, of course you'll have to tell them that." Lin Yi nodded. Mengyao going to the Dark Palace was different from Xiaoxiao. She didn't have a goal, unlike Xiaoxiao who wanted to live. Mengyao should have more freedom than Xiaoxiao.
Mengyao had decided to leave, but the atmosphere in the villa didn't lighten up. Everyone was still in a gloomy mood, and Mengyao didn't have much of an appetite during dinner. She only ate two mouthfuls before putting down the bowl in her hands.
"Yao Yao, don't be sad, it'll be fine. Maybe one day Shu will become an inheritor too, and I'll go accompany you! We'll all be Shield Bro's Shield Girls, and together with Xiaoxiao, we'll be Sky class fighters! Wahaha, let's see who dares mess with us then! We'll sweep through the world of practitioners together! "Yushu said.
"You'll become an inheritor too?" Mengyao, naturally, didn't believe Yushu, "This thing requires luck and luck. You don't have the Dark Phoenix bloodline, how are you going to go?"
"I can go to other sects, like ask Huo Baiyun if they need inheritors. I'm a fire elemental, maybe they'll take me in!" Yushu said.
"Alright, Shu, I know you're comforting me, but it's nothing. It's fine as long as you've thought it through." Mengyao said. "It'll come. I can't hide even if I want to, I'll be fine. "
"Okay, that's good." Yushu nodded.
"Right, Yao Yao. Aren't you going to tell Uncle Chu? " Lin Yi suddenly thought of Pengzhan- Mengyao was going to the Palace of Darkness, should he inform Pengzhan?
"Of course I have to, I'll call dad right now!" Mengyao had decided to follow the Grand Elder to the Dark Palace to become an inheritor. Of course, he had to give Pengzhan a call.
"En …" Lin Yi didn't have much appetite today. He looked at the people around him leaving one by one. He felt sad but smiled. Now it was Yaoyao, Xiao Shu and Little Jiu, they were all inheritors. There was also … Guan Xin!
However … Lin Yi really couldn't stop them. Even if Lin Yi had the power to flatten the ancient sects, it was impossible for him to do so. With the strength to kill Patriarch Xuanchen, it was impossible for Lin Yi to stop this. Because … That was Boss Bai's dream!
Returning the Five Elements Sect to the level of the ancient times had always been Boss Bai's pursuit. Lin Yi was now a direct disciple of the Five Elements Sect. Lin Yi also had to fight for the cause of the Five Elements Sect. Therefore, what Lin Yi could do was to improve his strength as soon as possible. When the big plan came, he would have enough strength to protect Xiaoxiao and the others. This was what Lin Yi should do.
So, this was also why Lin Yi didn't strongly oppose Mengyao going to the Dark Palace!
Mengyao had already called Pengzhan. Pengzhan was having dinner with his business partners. He was surprised to receive a call this late, "Yaoyao, what's up?"
"Dad, are you busy? Can you … come to the villa for a while? "Mengyao hesitated and said firmly.
"Now? Yaoyao, I'm having dinner with a client. Is your business important? Can I go tomorrow? "Pengzhan paused and asked.
"It's very important, can you reject it?" Mengyao didn't know if the Grand Elder of the Dark Palace would come looking for her again tomorrow. Perhaps tonight would be the last night Mengyao would be staying in the villa.
"Alright, I'll go now!" Pengzhan could tell that Mengyao's tone wasn't right. He agreed immediately.
After hanging up, Pengzhan apologized to the customer, but the customer wasn't displeased. He didn't dare to be displeased, either, since Pengzhan was the chairman of Donghai's merchant guild, and the hidden House Zhao had been destroyed. Donghai was now under the control of the hidden House Han, and with the support of the hidden House Han, Pengzhan's business was flourishing. If it weren't for the huge amount of money he'd be getting, Pengzhan's business would've been much bigger than it was right now.
Of course, Pengzhan never regretted giving the money to Lin Yi. As far as he was concerned, Lin Yi was their family's savior. Without Lin Yi, the company would've long been taken over by Gubang and the others, and even Yaoyao's life would've been lost.
After the dinner, Pengzhan got into Faubert's car and rushed to Lin Yi's villa. Mengyao's mood wasn't quite right, so Pengzhan decided to call Lin Yi first, planning to ask Lin Yi what happened to Mengyao at the villa.
"Uncle Chu?" Lin Yi was a little surprised when he received the call. He didn't think that Pengzhan would call him so soon after Mengyao's call.
"Yi, it's me. I wanted to ask you, is Yaoyao in some kind of trouble? Did you ask me to come over now? " Pengzhan let out a breath of relief when he saw that Lin Yi had picked up the phone. It would've been a big problem if Lin Yi hadn't picked up the phone. Now that Lin Yi was with Mengyao, it shouldn't be a big problem.
"Uncle Chu, it's a little complicated. Let's talk about it when you're here?" Lin Yi couldn't explain it clearly on the phone.
"Oh?" Pengzhan paused, not expecting Lin Yi to say something like that. He didn't press the matter further, "Alright, I'll come over now!"
Lin Yi shrugged at Mengyao after hanging up. "Yaoyao, Uncle Chu's calling. He seems worried."
"Yeah, daddy's always worried about me. I wonder if he'll be able to accept it now that I'm leaving." Mengyao sighed worriedly. "Mom left us when we were young. Now that I'm leaving, I wonder if daddy will be lonely …"
Lin Yi had always been curious about where Mengyao's mother had gone. He thought that she'd passed away, but the Miss scolded him for it. Clearly, it was a misunderstanding. But even now, Lin Yi didn't know where Mengyao's mother was.
"Right, Yaoyao, where did your mom go?" Lin Yi asked.
"My mom … I don't know. Daddy didn't tell me. He only said that she went to a faraway place and won't be back for a long time …" Mengyao shook her head, a trace of confusion flashing in her eyes.
