Chapter 284: The Grand Era

Translator: Atlas Studios Editor: Atlas Studios

In the 338th Night of the Black Mist Calendar.

Lu Ming and the others stayed at Frost Lake.

The secret passage was underwater at Frost Lake. This place could be used for both defense and offense, offering tranquility and isolation from the world.

As a result, the turmoil of the outside world faded away.

Whether it was the Three Clans War or the Eternal Clan, they had no relevance to Lu Ming and his group.

However,Lu Ming had made up his mind.

As long as the Blood Patterns were not fully formed, he would not come out of seclusion, not even the world’s destruction could deter Lu Ming from his attribute farming.

In the grand scheme of things, Lu Ming’s existence was insignificant and inconspicuous.

Even with the enmity between Lu Ming and the Giant and Insect Clans due to their association with Huo Huang and Queen Blade, their deaths in the context of the Three Clans War were not significant.

Lu Ming’s threat was not sufficient to make the Giant and Insect Clans venture deep into the Hundred Thousand Mountains just to deal with him.

Compared to Lu Ming, Esek was clearly more of a threat.

In short, it was only natural that Lu Ming was forgotten by the world…

Whether it was the Giant Clan or the Insect Clan, be it the Aeonians or the others,

Perhaps only in the quiet of the night could the former Nanxiang people faintly recall a man named Lu Ming.

However, it was limited to “recalling” rather than taking action or searching.

After all, the protagonist of one’s life was ultimately oneself.

Regardless of the deep impression Lu Ming left on people, time would eventually fade and erase everything.

Qinghe Province of the Eternal Clan.

This place was the outermost territory of the Eternal Clan and belonged to the personal domain of He Qing, a quasi-divine-level expert in the Eternal Clan.

Qinghe Province was close to the Hundred Thousand Mountains, and its vast land and sparse population made it easy for the people of Nanxiang to settle here without causing any ripples.

Today, two guests visited the new gathering place of the Nanxiang people, drawing warm hospitality from Huo Sheng.

It was none other than the beloved eldest daughter of the He family, Heluo, and Heluo’s good friend, Ivy.

Huo Sheng, Zhang Chengcheng, Heluo and Ivy walked around the new Nanxiang City.

They marveled at the architectural style of the town, which was quite different from the Eternal Clan, resembling a modern city from Blue Star. Heluo and Ivy clicked their tongues in excitement.

From time to time, Heluo and Ivy were both excited and amazed at the sight of some fresh gadgets, occasionally exclaiming in delight.

The initial surprise quickly dissipated.

Heluo smiled at Huo Sheng and asked, “Are you comfortable living here?”

Huo Sheng nodded and said, “Thanks for taking care of me. We, Nanxiang people, are very comfortable here.”

With his relationship with Heluo, although the Nanxiang people did not have any special privileges in Qinghe Province, they would not be bullied.

Living and multiplying in their own territory, the Nanxiang people enjoyed a peaceful and quiet life, at least not like the past when they were wronged every day.

Hearing this, Heluo smiled gently. “You can tell me if there’s anything you need; I’ll definitely help if I can.”

Huo Sheng smiled and shook his head, indicating that there was really nothing he needed help with. On the other hand, Zhang Chengcheng thought for a moment and could not help but ask.

“Miss He, um… have you heard any news about Brother Lu recently?”

If there was anyone among the Nanxiang people who never forgot Lu Ming, it had to be Cheng Cheng.

At this moment, when Cheng Cheng mentioned Lu Ming, Heluo also recalled the giant whale among the tribulation bearers.

She shook her head gently and said, “1 haven’t heard any news.”

“But 1 think no news is the best news.”

At this point, He Luo pondered briefly before saying, “Archean City has been drawn into the Battle of the Three Clans, and it’s said that a battle of Ancient Realm just broke out there a few days ago.”

At the mention of the Ancient Realm battle, Chengcheng’s breathing immediately became much heavier.

Heluo continued, “However, it’s said that the Ancient Realm battle did not affect the city. Moreover, it seems that City Lord Roda has already taken advantage of the chaos to retreat from Archean City.”

“I think with Brother Lu’s personality, he should have left Archean City long before the battle of the Ancient Realm erupted…”

A gentleman does not stand under a dangerous wall.

And Lu Ming in this regard was a gentleman among gentlemen.

Thinking of this, Heluo smiled again and said, “I think Brother Lu will come to see you soon. It’s probably not long before you meet again.”

Instead of feeling happy, Chengcheng fell into deep thought.

Her gaze gradually became determined, and soon, she made a decision.

“Miss He, I have a personal request.”

Heluo nodded and said, “Please go ahead.”

“I would like to join the Eternal Clan’s Sky Monitoring Bureau. I wonder if you could help introduce me?”

Heluo was slightly stunned but immediately nodded, “There’s really no need for recommendation. The Sky Monitoring Bureau has always been open to people of all races on our side of the Eternal Clan. However, to join the Sky Monitoring Bureau, the minimum requirement is to have the strength of Physique Realm. You…”

Chengcheng revealed her faint aura and said, “I just advanced to the Physique Realm yesterday.”

This made Heluo raise her eyebrows and smile. “1 remember that it hasn’t been a year since you came to the Black Mist Zone, right?”

“Exactly a year.”

Hearing the answer, Heluo could not help but sigh, “Chengcheng, your rate of progress is quite fast.”

“I think Chengcheng, it shouldn’t be a problem for you to join the Sky Monitoring Bureau. I’ll talk to the people in the bureau when I get back.”

With Chengcheng’s rate of progress, she was definitely considered a little genius.

And geniuses were welcomed everywhere.

Heluo also understood Chengcheng’s goal in wanting to join the Sky Monitoring Bureau—she simply wanted a higher starting point to accelerate her growth.

This could not be considered an unsavory goal…

In short, Heluo was willing to facilitate this mutually beneficial arrangement.

On the side, Ivy suddenly spoke, “Actually, if anyone else in your area wants to join the Sky Monitoring Bureau, they can come with us. The Bureau is currently short on staff…”

Huo Sheng’s eyes flashed when he heard this, “You’re quite short on staff?”

Ivy replied, “It’s not something we can’t discuss. Recently, there have been many unusual cases outside. The Bureau is overwhelmed and seriously understaffed. If anyone is willing to join the Sky Monitoring Bureau, I’m sure the Bureau will definitely welcome them.”

Ivy could not disclose the specific nature of the unusual cases, and Huo Sheng had no intention of prying.

After a brief contemplation, he spoke, “Besides Chengcheng, we have two other Physique Realm experts if the Sky Monitoring Bureau is interested.”

Heluo chuckled, covering her mouth, “Why would they be disinterested?”

The other two Physique Realm experts Huo Sheng mentioned were Bai Tianyu and Duan Mei.

That night, Zhang Chengcheng, Bai Tianyu, and Duan Mei left Nanxiang City with Heluo and Ivy and reported to the Sky Monitoring Bureau branch in Qinghe Province.

On the other hand, Huo Sheng stood by the window and looked at the night sky outside for a long time without saying anything.

It was not until a pair of fair hands wrapped around him from behind and

Meng Jie’s voice sounded from behind.

“What are you thinking about? Why aren’t you sleeping?”

Huo Sheng turned around to look at his lover. He pondered for a moment before speaking.

“It’s just a sense of unease about the staff shortage in the Sky Monitoring Bureau.”

Huo Sheng did not know where this premonition came from. After thinking for a long time, he could only say helplessly, “Forget it, it’s probably just me worrying unnecessarily..”
