Chapter 1122: Arriving at the East Sea Again

“Master, Master, why are there two moons in the sky?”

Ye Ling looked up into the sky with a curious expression.

An Lin offered a straight-faced explanation, “This is a natural phenomenon that occurs when light reflects off the ozone layer. When the water vapor or other floating particles within the ozone layer are in a certain state, the light of the moon will be reflected, thereby creating a second moon!”

“Wow, that’s so cool! Master knows so much!”

Ye Ling didn’t really understand anything, but she still offered words of praise.

She knew that Master liked to be praised, so that was what she did.

“Then why are the colors of the two moons different?” Ye Ling was curious again.

“The answer to that question relates to the principle of dispersion. Let me break this down for you slowly…”

Under the two moons, An Lin answered all of Ye Ling’s questions through a scientific approach.

However, what was unbeknown to him was that both moons were real…

The next day, An Lin, Xu Xiaolan, Xiao Ze, Tina, and Bryce set forth for the East Sea.

“Heavenly Dragon Island is an extremely huge island on the East Sea. Apparently, it normally resides within chaos and only appears on the surface of the ocean once every decade.

“The Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas hold their rituals to pay respects to their ancestors every time Heavenly Dragon Island appears…

“Unfortunately, the coordinates of Heavenly Dragon Island are an extremely well-kept secret, and only core members of the Dragon Court have a chance to learn of these coordinates.”

Xu Xiaolan read out the information she had received from Bai Ling.

An Lin waved a scroll in his hand with a smile on his face. “Ms. Bei Lian has already given me the coordinates.”

That’s right, there was a traitor in the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas.

After learning of the Four Nine Immortal Sect’s financial difficulties, this Dragon Tribe prodigy immediately provided her assistance with no hesitation in order to support the team’s money-borrowing mission.

“They’re paying their respects to their ancestors. Wouldn’t it be blasphemous if we were to borrow money from them during that process?” The kind-hearted Tina was feeling a little guilty.

An Lin replied with a serious expression, “We’re not stealing from them. Nor are we robbing them. So how is that blasphemous?”

No one believed him.

An Lin: “You have to believe me!”

“This was the exact same thing the Monkey King once said when he went to look for a weapon in the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas[1],” Xu Xiaolan said with an unconvinced expression.

An Lin: “…”

“Hahaha… History really does always repeat itself! I’m suddenly beginning to feel sorry for the Dragon King of the East Sea…” Xiao Ze burst into laughter.

After chuckling to himself for a while, he turned to the little fairy.

“Don’t think too much about it, Little Na. I’m a dragon that has lived for hundreds of thousands of years. I’m technically from the same generation as Ao Meng’s grandparents, so I’m a Dragon Tribe ancestor too.”

“Despite that, those guys from the Dragon Court of the Eastern Seas tried to make me their slaves. They’ve already committed acts of blasphemy against themselves by disrespecting their own ancestors, so why can’t we borrow some money from them?”

The bloodline ancestry theory presented by Xiao Ze successfully convinced Tina.

An Lin’s eyes lit up. “Little Xiao, if you’re an ancestor of the Dragon Tribe, then aren’t I the master of a Dragon Tribe ancestor?”

“That’s theoretically true.” Xiao Ze nodded.

“Stop pumping yourself up! It doesn’t matter if you’re the master of a Dragon Tribe ancestor if the Dragon Tribe refuses to acknowledge all of that!” Xu Xiaolan rolled her eyes and poured a figurative bucket of cold water over his head.

An Lin suddenly recalled that Xu Xiaolan had ties with the Dragon Court. It was no wonder that she was displeased with this topic of conversation. Going by his logic, An Lin was an ancestral figure to Xu Xiaolan!

“Xiaolan, you’re about to meet your grandfather as well as all of your uncles and aunties soon. What are your thoughts and feelings?” An Lin asked.

“I don’t feel anything. I’m just going there to take all of the New Years’ money they owe me for all these years.” Xu Xiaolan pursed her lips.

“Gasp…”

Everyone drew a sharp intake of breath.

This excuse seemed to be an even better one than borrowing money?

Thus, everyone chatted as they progressed toward the East Sea.

Two days later, they arrived at the East Sea.

The Pearl Kingdom.

As everyone looked out across the boundless ocean, their bodies unconsciously relaxed at the beautiful view.

“Do we go to Heavenly Dragon Island’s location now and wait there?” Xiao Ze asked as he looked at a certain spot in the ocean.

“The Heavenly Dragon Island will only be around for three days, and the Dragon Tribe ritual will also be held then. We have a lot of time to do some other things,” An Lin replied with a smile.

“Like what?” Xiao Ze was perplexed.

An Lin grabbed Xu Xiaolan’s hand with a wide grin. “Shopping!”

Xiao Ze: “…”

Thus, the two of them embarked on their shopping spree together.

An Lin had visited the Pearl Kingdom once in the past and had saved this entire city, thereby making him a renowned hero all across the Pearl Kingdom.

Even though it had been two years since then, there were still many pearl people who remembered him.

Even as he and Xu Xiaolan were strolling through the streets, they would still encounter some pearl people from time to time. These pearl people would roll around on the ground in order to express their gratitude and welcome.

“It looks like you’re quite popular in the Pearl Kingdom, An Lin!” Xu Xiaolan covered her mouth and chuckled lightly.

“Of course! I’m a hero around these parts. Back when I was just a mere Spirit Nurturing Stage cultivator, I faced the mighty sea monster army alone and slew several Soul Formation Stage sea monsters. It was an extremely spectacular display of power…” An Lin boasted with a smug expression.

Xu Xiaolan wore a radiant and enchanting smile as she listened to An Lin’s recount.

She was feeling quite elated that An Lin was loved and worshipped by so many beautiful pearl people.

The two of them strolled along the streets while enjoying the sight of the pearl people rolling around them.

They would also buy things occasionally if there was something that caught their eyes.

For example, there was a type of crispy and spicy flame coral seafood dish that both of them thoroughly enjoyed.

The outer skin was quite crispy and had a roasted, spicy flavor, while the interior was soft and juicy. A scorching power of flames would flow through the consumer’s entire body, bringing with it an extremely satisfying sensation.

An Lin bought an entire ton of crispy and spicy flame coral as a supply for him to eat when he returned to the sect or the university. The interior storage space within a storage ring was devoid of any bacteria and microscopic organisms, so food would never decompose or go bad in there.

Xu Xiaolan didn’t buy any ready-made food. Instead, she bought a lot of interesting ingredients, which she planned to use to improve her cooking skills.

She loved cooking more than An Lin did. As such, she was quite happy to experiment and learn.

Xu Xiaolan had made vast improvements during this period of time, and her cooking skills seemed to have already outstripped An Lin’s.

The frying pan basically belonged to her now.

His title as the number one Chef God of the Heavenly Court seemed to be in quite a bit of danger…

An Lin was suddenly struck by a sense of pressure.

If Xu Xiaolan progressed to the Return to Void Stage first, then she would have outstripped him in both cooking and cultivation base!

No, he had to progress to Return to Void Stage as soon as possible!

His divine tool and divine pill were already on the production line, so all he had to do now was to nurture a weapon spirit.

With this in mind, An Lin pulled out his Evil-Slaying Sword before speaking in a heartfelt voice, “Little Xie, do you know why I risked my life to keep you?

“It was all an effort to give you a better home, which is here with me!

“I am your best choice!”

Evil-Slaying Sword: “…”

“You and I are a match made in heaven! If you care about me and have a conscience, please nurture a spirit for yourself and for the sake of my happiness!”
