Chapter 145: Eighteen Years of Great Dreams

Chen Fan looked in the direction Luo Yao was pointing. The woman was in her thirties, possessed an exquisite temperament, and looked extremely similar to Luo Yao.

"Could this be the person we are looking for?" Chen Fan muttered to himself.

"Is your mother's name Mo Youlan?" Chen Fan asked Luo Yao, who was beside him.

Luo Yao couldn't help but be surprised: "How do you know my mother's name?"

Chen Fan understood in his heart but did not explain. At this moment, cheers erupted again from behind the battlefield.

"The City Lord has arrived too!"

Chen Fan looked back and saw a man in his thirties appearing there.

He held a black bow in his hand. As he pulled the bowstring, a golden arrow pierced the void, instantly blowing up the head of a Tier 7 strange beast on the battlefield.

The next moment, he pulled the bowstring one after another, and golden arrows flew out one by one, killing all dozen or so Tier 7 strange beasts in the field in an instant.

"The City Lord is mighty!" The crowd cheered.

Luo Yao was also extremely excited, pulling Chen Fan's arm and saying: "That is my father!"

"Your parents both have such strong strength!" Beside them, Zhao Mingze couldn't help but exclaim in surprise.

"That is only natural; they are both Eighth-order Grandmasters! They are the guardian gods of the City of Hope!"

At this time, with the two of them taking action, this battle soon came to an end.

The strong withdrew from the scene one after another, while those with weaker strength all went outside the city to clean up the corpses covering the mountains and plains.

Chen Fan and the others also followed Luo Yao to the outside of the city.

The Luo Yao of this world was still extremely kind, and because Chen Fan had just saved her, she had a good impression of Chen Fan and his group.

After a short time together, Chen Fan had learned that this City of Hope was built inside an other-dimensional space, and the human predecessors living here all came from Blue Star.

Luo Yao said to everyone: "The City of Hope has stood here for over a hundred years. Our ancestors said that when the entrance to the other-dimensional space first appeared on Blue Star, the country organized a group of personnel to come here to investigate, but at that time the space entrance was extremely unstable, and the passage collapsed, causing our ancestors to be stranded in the other-dimensional space, forever unable to find the way home. So, they simply built a city here and struggled to survive."

Everyone looked at each other, their eyes filled with strangeness.

According to Daxia's historical records, a hundred years ago, a legion called the Brave Legion was lost in an other-dimensional space due to the collapse of an entrance.

The humans living in this City of Hope now might be the descendants of the Brave Legion.

After chatting for a while longer, Chen Fan steered the topic to the purpose of their trip.

"Luo Yao, can you take us to see your mother? We have something we want to ask her."

"What do you want to find my mother for?" Luo Yao was extremely innocent and had no guard at all; she was just curious.

Chen Fan made an excuse: "Didn't you say it yourself? For these twenty years, besides us, only your mother has accidentally come here from Blue Star. We want to find her and ask if it is still possible to return to Blue Star."

"You can't go back." Luo Yao shook her head gently and said: "The older generation searched for many years and never found the way back. However, since you want to see her, I can take you. I think Mother would also be very happy to see people from Blue Star."

Luo Yao agreed. Half an hour later, they returned to the city and arrived at the largest manor in the center of the city, where they met Mo Youlan.

"Mother, they are my friends and want to see you. They are all from Blue Star, you know." Luo Yao walked up and hugged the beautiful woman's arm, acting like a spoiled child.

Mo Youlan was not at all surprised by everyone's arrival. After sending Luo Yao away, she spoke slowly: "You are not people of this world. What is your purpose in coming here?"

Chen Fan and the others hurriedly paid their respects and laid out their intentions.

Seeing Mo Youlan remain silent, Chen Fan gathered his courage and asked: "Senior, why do you immerse yourself in a dream and refuse to wake up? You must know that Senior Mo and the real Luo Yao are both waiting for you outside."

Mo Youlan sighed leisurely. She pointed a finger, and a segment of her life experience appeared in everyone's minds.

It turned out that after Mo Youlan traveled across the ocean by boat back then, she accidentally arrived at this City of Hope and met a man with equally extraordinary talent, Luo Jingyun, who was also the City Lord of the City of Hope at that time.

The two soon fell in love. After Mo Youlan learned about the origin of the City of Hope, she discussed with Luo Jingyun leading everyone to return to Blue Star along the route she had come.

The people of the City of Hope cheered with joy upon hearing the news; after all, living here and suffering from the invasion of strange beasts day and night, with their lives hanging by a thread, everyone had long since had enough.

However, while they were moving the entire clan, they were attacked by countless terrifying sea beasts in that sea area.

The City of Hope, all 80,000 people, none were spared; all were buried in the sea.

Luo Jingyun was also trapped in the beast tide while trying to protect her and could not escape.

This life experience was a huge blow to Mo Youlan. She always believed that she was the one who harmed the entire City of Hope.

Returning to Youlan Valley, after giving birth to Luo Yao, she fell into a dream, and one dream lasted eighteen years.

"The City of Hope is gone. This city is just living in my dream. I don't want to let this dream wake up, nor do I want to let the City of Hope disappear completely."

Two lines of clear tears fell from Mo Youlan, her voice filled with endless sorrow.

Everyone who had originally wanted to persuade her chose silence. This world was perfect for Mo Youlan; she indeed had no need to wake up.

A moment later, Chen Fan asked: "Senior, there is one thing I don't understand. Why did you prevent Luo Yao and Senior Mo from entering this dream? If you could meet in the dream world, wouldn't that be a good thing?"

"Sigh!" Mo Youlan let out a long sigh: "It is not that I am unwilling, but there is already a Luo Yao in this world. Due to the rules, this place does not allow another Luo Yao."

"As for my father, his strength is too great; my dream cannot contain him, unless one day, my strength can surpass his."

"So that's how it is." Everyone couldn't help but nod.

Mo Youlan looked at Chen Fan and said: "I want to know, the Luo Yao outside, is she... is she doing well?"

"Luo Yao is doing quite well, it's just that... it's just that the ability she awakened is the Ten Thousand Poison Body, and this ability makes her suffer a bit..." Chen Fan pondered for a moment and did not hide it.

"However, please rest assured, with Senior Mo there, she will definitely be fine. Besides, we will all help her." Seeing her nervous expression, Chen Fan hurriedly spoke again.

"Thank you all. It is I who have failed Luo Yao and failed my father, but I really cannot bear to give up this City of Hope." Mo Youlan said weakly: "After you go back, tell my father that Youlan is sorry to him."

Everyone sighed in their hearts, knowing that this was already the best result for Mo Youlan.

After all, she was living very happily here.

"Before sending you out, let me grant you a stroke of good fortune. I hope you will help Luo Yao more in the future."

After Mo Youlan finished speaking, she raised her hand and waved, and everyone instantly fell into endless slaughter.

Mo Youlan's voice came again: "This is an illusion I created. You will truly wake up in two hours. By then, your strength should be able to improve by a small realm." ===== CHAPTER 146 =====
