Lu An had heard this sentence countless times.
From the very beginning, the person in the black fog had said it, Fu Yu had said it, Beauty Yang had said it, the Immortal Master and the Immortal Empress had said it. Whenever he wanted to know something, he would get this answer.
Fortunately, he now knew who his parents were, but there were still many things he did not know. For example, who was his master, the person in the black fog, what was going on with Qi's forces, and why the Immortal Region had declined. He did not know any of these, and although he wanted to know, he had never asked.
There were some things that could not be told by others, and could only be told by strength. Otherwise, if he knew it earlier, he would only be inviting trouble.
Just like now, so what if Yuan Ling knew about Chu Hanming? Revenge? Yuan Ling did not have this ability at all. At most, she would live in hatred all day long.
When Lu An said these words, Yuan Ling kept looking at him. The two of them stood like this in the forest without speaking for a long time.
After a long time, Yuan Ling finally spoke. She looked at Lu An and said softly, "I can listen to you, but I also hope that you can promise me one thing."
Lu An was slightly startled and asked, "What is it?"
"When I am qualified to know the truth, I hope that the person who tells me the truth is you," Yuan Ling said.
Lu An looked at Yuan Ling and nodded after two breaths. "Okay."
Yuan Ling smiled, but there was an obvious loneliness in her smile. She did not continue to walk forward, but turned and walked in the direction of the courtyard.
Seeing this, Lu An did not follow. He just took a deep breath and returned to Yin Lin's wooden house.
When Lu An said that he had completed the task, Yin Lin did not ask Lu An how he had done it, nor did she ask what the agreement was. She just nodded calmly.
"Senior!" Lu An looked at Yin Lin and said anxiously, "Who created this array formation?"
Looking at Lu An, Yin Lin took a deep breath and said, "Before I tell you about this array formation, I need to tell you something from the past."
Something from the past?
Lu An was taken aback. He didn't say anything and waited quietly.
"Actually, there are many different races in the human race, such as the Temi people, Sengoku, the Spreading Star race, and even the human race as understood by the continent." Yin Lin said, "Just like how tigers are divided into different species, we humans actually have many races, but that was eight eras ago."
Lu An was stunned when he heard this. Then, his brows gradually furrowed as he fell into deep thought. He naturally believed Yin Lin's words because she had no reason to lie to him. But if it only existed before the Eight Ancient Eras, could it be related to the Hachiko clan?
"Among the many races, there is a race that specializes in the study of strange things called the Futeng Race." Yin Lin said, "The Futeng Race likes to search for the roots of things, excavating nature itself and presenting everything on the surface, evolving it into an array formation. Although array formations are not unique to the Futeng Race, using trigrams as an array formation is a unique ability of the Futeng Race. "
"After the Eight Ancient Eras, the Futeng Race was almost annihilated. Only a small number of people were left to escape, but their living conditions were still very difficult." Yin Lin said, "The Futeng Race didn't pursue power. Although they cultivated, it was to mobilize more heaven and earth energy to form an array formation. They were very weak. More than a thousand years ago, I met the Futeng Race. According to him, other than his bloodline, the Futeng Race had completely disappeared. There were less than ten Futeng Race people left with him. "
"..."
Lu An frowned and remained silent.
"In order to hide their tracks, the Futeng Race never used an array formation. But the Temi people were in the same situation as them. Out of sympathy and trust, this person was willing to set up an array formation for the Temi people." Yin Lin continued, "But in the end, I still don't know his name or where he is."
Don't know where he is?!
Lu An's body shook violently. He quickly asked Yin Lin, "Then how do I find him?"
That's right. Even if he knew this, it was useless to Lu An. The world was so big. How could he find him?
Looking at Lu An's anxious look, Yin Lin said calmly, "Don't worry. Although I don't know where he lives, in order to repay their kindness of setting up the array formation, the Temi people will give them daily necessities every month. The place of the transaction is on an isolated island. They will leave after getting the food."
"Today is the 17th of June. Three days later, on the 20th of June, we will send the food to the isolated island. I will send someone to take you there. Whether you can persuade them or not is your business. I am only responsible for introducing you. "
Lu An was delighted when he heard this. He immediately cupped his hands and said, "Thank you!"
"Don't be happy too early." Yin Lin looked at the excited Lu An and said, "Their hatred for the Hachiko clan is no less than the Temi people. You have to think about what to say. Otherwise, it is almost impossible to learn the array formation from them."
Lu An was shocked. He nodded and said, "I will remember."

Lu An did not stay with the Temi people for long. He quickly returned to the Icefire Island. Everyone was still waiting for his news in the palace. When he said that he would meet the Futeng clan three days later, everyone was relieved. No matter what, it was good that he had gained something.
However, it was very difficult to persuade a clan that hated the Hachiko clan, let alone learn the array formation from them. Liu Yi was the best at dealing. She began to prepare a gift for Lu An and the content of the transaction. With Liu Yi's help, Lu An did not need to worry about this. He just needed to wait patiently.
For safety reasons, to avoid the revenge of Qi's forces, no one left the Icefire Island for the whole day. Otherwise, there would not be enough people to protect them. Liu Yi declared a state of emergency for the entire Icefire Alliance. Even the Icefire Island and the Icefire Island needed people to take turns to keep watch.
The next day, Yuerong returned.
When Yuerong came back, everyone was relieved. Yuerong's strength alone was stronger than the entire Icefire Alliance. With her here, everyone felt relieved.
After greeting everyone, Yuerong looked at Lu An. The look in her eyes was obviously different from before. Lu An was startled. He felt that Yuerong seemed to have something to say. He went out with Yuerong and walked into the forest of the Icefire Island.
Along the way, Yuerong and Lu An walked side by side. Neither of them spoke first. This silence lasted until they reached the forest. Lu An felt that as a man, he should speak first. He took a light breath and looked at Yuerong. He said, "Yin Lin has told me about you."
"I know." Yuerong nodded gently and said, "Sister told me."
"Then …" Lu An's mind was in a mess. He did not know what to say. "You should be very sad, right?"
After saying that, Lu An wanted to punch himself.
Yuerong smiled and said, "Of course I am sad. My fate should not be like this. I should not have wasted 2,000 years in vain."
"Do you know what it feels like to be trapped in the Knowledge Sea for 2,000 years?" Yuerong said, "I have been awake for 2,000 years, but I could not open my eyes. If sister had not come to chat with me all the time, I would have gone crazy. Even so, I could only listen to my sister and could not say a word. "
"If you had not appeared, this situation would have lasted until I really died. This was my greatest fear for 2,000 years. You gave me a chance to be reborn." Yuerong looked at Lu An and smiled without a trace of charm. She said, "That is why I have been calling you 'savior'. It is not a joke."
"People have been trapped for 2,000 years. During the process, they have already seen through many things. When I was in a coma, I prayed that I would rather not pursue anything against the Chu Clan. I just hoped that I could recover and wake up. So now, I really do not have much hatred for the Chu Clan and Chu Hanming. 2,000 years have passed. They are not qualified to occupy my heart for so long. "
"On the contrary, my sister hates the Chu Clan more and more. She wants to take revenge at all costs." Yuerong said, "My sister has been tired of being the patriarch these years. In fact, I cherish my current life more for revenge."
Lu An was stunned and asked, "Then what you mean is …."
"Don't worry. I don't want to quit the Ice Fire Union. On the contrary, I will always protect my savior. I am not an ungrateful person." Yuerong smiled and said, "It's just that it is too boring to be alone. I can't find someone to talk to. You have been my savior once. You might as well continue to be my savior!"
