Chapter 1114: Seeking a Solution

~4 min read 652 words

Ning Chen calmly sipped the tea the butler had brought.

He had to admit, although this was an illusion realm, the tea was a rare and excellent brew.

This also indirectly showed that Xiao Han's former life must have been quite comfortable; even if he wasn't a young master, his living conditions should have been above average.

"I've parked the car. Is there anything else you need?" Xiao Han's mother walked in, speaking with a touch of cautious care.

Xiao Han glanced at her without a word, still pondering his grand plan to destroy this illusion realm.

Toward Xiao Han's attitude, Xiao's mother didn't show any displeasure; instead she looked at Ning Chen, seemingly asking for his opinion.

Even though it was an illusion realm, they were still people after all, so Ning Chen shook his head at Xiao's mother.

"Alright, let's go, to my room. I have something to talk to you about."

Xiao Han stood up and headed upstairs without so much as a glance at Xiao's mother.

At the staircase, Ning Chen turned his head slightly and saw Xiao's mother still looking toward them, except her eyes were filled with a hollow emptiness.

Compared to the luxury of the entire residence, this room looked far more plain, and in many places it didn't quite fit with the rest of the house.

Ning Chen came to the desk and saw a necklace laid out on it. The style of the necklace looked very old, but it had a beautiful sheen to it, as if its owner had cherished it dearly.

Xiao Han followed his gaze and naturally saw the necklace as well. He walked over, stared at it intently for a moment, then picked it up and tossed it into the trash can.

Ning Chen raised an eyebrow, not quite understanding the meaning behind Xiao Han's action.

"This necklace is the only token I brought from my world."

At that, Xiao Han said no more, and Ning Chen could vaguely guess at what he meant.

Xiao Han sat down in a chair nearby and casually pulled over another one for Ning Chen, motioning for him to sit.

"Tell me, how did you break through the illusion realm, and even end up inside mine?"

Ning Chen didn't reveal the entire story; he swapped the name Shiya in the tale for Gu Yanqi.

Although he understood Xiao Han was now very different from before, some things were better kept if they could be—there was no need to lay everything out.

"What do you plan to do? You must have a plan already." Ning Chen looked into Xiao Han's eyes and said with certainty.

Xiao Han paused, then looked at Ning Chen with a slightly resentful expression: "Tch, I was going to tell you I had a plan, but you saw right through it. So, want to guess what I want to do?"

"Everyone's breakthrough trigger is clearly different, and we don't have that much time to spend here trying them one by one. Judging from your attitude toward your mother, you don't want this world. The simplest way not to want it is—"

At that point, Ning Chen stopped speaking and looked at Xiao Han instead.

Xiao Han moved his lips slightly and slowly uttered two words: "Destroy it."

Now that they had agreed on a method, they needed to think about how to carry out the plan.

Destroying this illusion realm sounded simple, but in practice it was very difficult.

First, they didn't know how big this world actually was; second, Xiao Han had no power within his own environment.

Xiao Han rolled his eyes, licked his teeth, and smiled slightly: "Tell me, since this is my illusion realm, doesn't it change according to what I think?"

"Not sure, but you can give it a try."

With Ning Chen present, Xiao Han felt a little more confident in whatever he did.
