Chapter 396: I Shall Return A Thousand Years Later
Lan Su’s odd outfit attracted stares and pauses in the café, but most of the gazes had only lingered for a beat before they shifted away.
Yun Jian’s voice when she spoke to Lan Su was soft, so much so that people around them could not hear it. When she asked the question, her fingernails rapped the table twice softly; her lips pressed once and her eyes flitted slightly, her posture was incredibly idle.
When Lan Su took in Yun Jian’s demeanor, all the more she thought the latter was like her Wizard Lord Wu.
Moreover, she had found Yun Jian following her senses. The reason she hid behind the trash was to make sure if Yun Jian was the Wizard Lord of the Wu Clan.
Initially, she was not sure. It was until Yun Jian noticed her and sent the butterfly knife flying her way and she barely avoided it that she was ecstatic.
Lan Su’s ability was absolutely dominant. It was not just on earth where humans lived, she was still one of the best even in Yulong Mainland where talented abilities were abundant. For Yun Jian to discover her, it meant that the former’s ability must be above hers.
Yun Jian must definitely be her Wizard Lord Wu when she had the senses of Wizard Lord Wu and such skills.
Lan Su did not say anything but she reproduced the sandalwood box again and pushed it to Yun Jian, telling her, “Wizard Lord Wu, this sandalwood box is your best weapon.”
Lan Su’s words stunned Yun Jian.
She pointed at herself with a press of lips and echoed in flummox, “The sandalwood box is mine?”
“Yes! It’s yours! The Wu Clan has waited for thousands of years for you just because of what you said back then!” Lan Su’s tone grew more emotional that she ultimately stood up from the raging feelings.
Standing up and standing out due to her period costume-ish outfit right now, the patrons of the café who had been enjoying their time here shifted their gaze over to them.
Yun Jian quickly waved her hand to gesture Lan Su to sit down. When she did, those whose curiosity made them check her out strangely reeled in their gazes and pulled away.
“What was it?” Yun Jian picked up her cup of coffee and took a light whiff, blowing at it in pleasure before taking a sip.
Lan Su had relatively calmed down and answered looking at Yun Jian, enunciating her words clearly, “I shall return a thousand years later!”
From Lan Su, Yun Jian heard a lot of things that were vastly different from her common domain of knowledge.
Lan Su said that she was their reincarnated Wizard Lord Wu, and that Lan Su herself was a member of Yulong Mainland’s Wu Clan, the prime guardian of Wizard Lord Wu.
There was a precise saying regarding the existence of Wizard Lord Wu. It was also an old prophecy that lasted to this day.
It was about the Wu Clan—if Wizard Lord Wu remained, the Wu Clan would be eternally safe! If Wizard Lord Wu ceased to exist, the Wu Clan would be gone in this world!
The reality was that the Wu Clan gradually declined after Wizard Lord Wu’s departure. From being the top family in Yulong Mainland a millennia ago, it could barely maintain its honorable clan status now.
The clan members had never given up on waiting for the return of their Wizard Lord Wu. The latter had left the promise, “I shall return a thousand years later!”
All of them were confident that the moment Wizard Lord Wu came back, it would be the time the Wu Clan reclaim its peak shine!
“Wizard Lord Wu, it’s lucky you’ve left the crystal ball and declared that your return is when the crystal sphere breaks. It’s because of this that I noticed your return and found you,” Lan Su explained everything in one go.
“So are you taking me back to Yulong Mainland?” Yun Jian asked with an arch of the brow.
Lan Su’s eyes twitched slightly before she nodded vehemently. “Of course! Only when you go back with me, Wizard Lord Wu, can our Wu Clan have hopes to rise again!”
“I don’t agree to it,” Yun Jian rejected at once.
