~7 min read 1,320 words

"Mr. Chen," Ao Zhan said, cupping his hands toward Chen Yu, "please invite Miss Yu to the Heaven War Pavilion for a talk."

"What is it about?" Chen Yu asked.

"Miss Yu's status is special; she belongs to the category of people who are under control, so she must return with us to register and keep a file at the Heaven War Pavilion," Ao Zhan said politely.

"Her situation is special. I will explain the situation to Long Lao later," Chen Yu said.

"Long Lao is at the Heaven War Pavilion right now, so please come along as well, Mr. Chen," Ao Zhan said.

Chen Yu pondered for a moment. Since Long Lao was there, this matter must have already attracted his attention. He might not give others face, but he still had to give Long Lao face.

"Brother Chen, let's go. If I don't go, the people from Dragon Breath probably won't be at ease," Yu Sichen smiled.

"Alright then, let's go," Chen Yu nodded.

At the Heaven War Pavilion headquarters, they met Long Lao.

Long Lao cultivated the Five Dragon Qi. Originally, he had already retired, but the Heaven War Pavilion had never found a suitable person to serve as Pavilion Master. Now that he had been healed by Chen Cong, he returned to the Heaven War Pavilion to take on this heavy responsibility.

"Little Chen, you didn't even come to see me after returning to Jing?" Long Lao said with a chuckle when he saw Chen Yu.

"It is my fault. I should have come to report on this trip to the Southwest immediately, but I got busy and forgot," Chen Yu laughed, "but aren't I here now?"

"If I hadn't asked you to come, would you have come?" Long Lao said with a chuckle.

"Long Lao, this is Yu Sichen. You should already know about her situation, but you can rest assured that she will not disrupt the order," Chen Yu said.

Yu Sichen smiled slightly: "Hello, Long Lao."

"Good. Miss Yu, I already know about your affairs. How should I put it? After all, your power comes from the Dark World, so we must exercise some control over you. With Chen Yu following you, I am at ease, but you must register with us."

"I understand. Just tell me what needs to be done, Long Lao, and I will cooperate with you," Yu Sichen nodded slightly.

"Very well. Ao Zhan, take Miss Yu to handle the procedures," Long Lao nodded.

"Yes, Pavilion Master." Ao Zhan nodded and took Yu Sichen away.

"Is there something you wanted to see me about, Long Lao?" Chen Yu asked.

"I wouldn't have called you over together if there wasn't," Long Lao nodded and said, "There is a mission that requires you to go."

"You need me to go?" Chen Yu was slightly stunned.

"I know you and the Ye Family young lady are preparing for the grand engagement, but this matter is somewhat unusual. I have already been in contact with Ye Lao, so your engagement can only be pushed back," Long Lao said.

"I'm not in a hurry for that, but what exactly is the matter?" Chen Yu asked.

"On the Southwest border, there is an invasion by an overseas super-powered force. You should have heard of that force; it is the Brahma Sect, a branch of the Three Phases Gate from A San's side, which has formed its own lineage," Long Lao said.

"I have heard of it. There are many branches of forces on A San's side, and this Brahma Sect has a very loud reputation. Their cultivators are also called 'Sect Persons'," Chen Yu nodded and said, "What are they doing coming here?"

"That place is a border region, which is already war-torn, and it is said that their Saintess has appeared there, so a faction intends to occupy it. How can we agree to that?" Long Lao snorted and said, "Those petty thieves dare to offend our Huaxia? If it weren't for my old age, I would handle them myself."

"Fine, no problem. I will head over later," Chen Yu nodded.

"This, I am quite embarrassed. You should have gone after your grand engagement, but the situation there is urgent now," Long Lao said, "After you return from this mission, I will take you to Dragon Breath, and you will be directly under the jurisdiction of the Dragon Breath headquarters."

"These are all small matters," Chen Yu smiled slightly.

"You have advanced?" Long Lao looked at the different aura on Chen Yu.

"I was lucky enough to break through to Entering the Dao a while ago," Chen Yu laughed.

"Impressive. Even for proper Dharma Cultivator sects or families, breaking through to the Entering the Dao Realm is likely not easy. You went out for a trip and broke through upon returning; you are truly not comparable to ordinary people," Long Lao gave Chen Yu a thumbs up.

After Yu Sichen came out, Chen Yu left with her.

"They didn't give you a hard time, did they?" Chen Yu asked with some concern.

"No," Yu Sichen shook her head and said, "Just registered and left a file, it's fine."

"That's good. Let's go, let's head back," Chen Yu smiled.

"Brother Chen, are you leaving again?" Yu Sichen asked.

"Yes, there is a small problem in the Southwest that needs me to solve," Chen Yu nodded, "but don't worry, I will be back soon."

"I want to go with you." Yu Sichen's words made Chen Yu freeze.

"Why are you going there? This time it's an invasion by a mysterious overseas force; it will be dangerous," Chen Yu asked.

"I don't need you to take care of me now. I can take care of myself, and I can help you," Yu Sichen smiled, "You are not allowed to not take me."

"Alright, we'll talk about it then," Chen Yu gave a wry smile.

Just at this moment, Yu Sichen's expression changed slightly.

"What's wrong?" Chen Yu saw her expression was off.

"Zuer is acting up again," Yu Sichen murmured, "I need to go over and see immediately."

"I'll go with you. While I'm at it, I'll teach her a lesson so she knows that not everything can be messed with."

In a bar, Zuer sat in a corner looking harmless, with an old man sitting opposite her.

This old man was that Lao Gui who was about to undergo Reincarnation. Because he had done many evil deeds during his lifetime, he now needed to complete one hundred good deeds before he could go to Reincarnation.

And tonight he was surprisingly smooth; he had already completed two tasks, and now he was at 99. After doing one more thing, he would be successfully fulfilled.

"Lao Gui, congratulations to you, being able to be a person in the world again." Zuer's eyes flickered with a ghostly light, giving people a feeling of being venomous, and although she was saying words of congratulations, she actually didn't mean it at all.

"Hehe, I did all kinds of evil in my life, but after death, I have to keep doing good deeds to atone for my sins. No one can escape these Karma," Lao Gui was wearing a suit, and although he was advanced in age, he gave people a refined feeling.

In fact, he was a villain in his lifetime and looked fierce, but after listening to the wooden fish and chanting in Jizhao Nunnery every day, he had long since turned over a new leaf. He believed that if he went to Reincarnation, he could be cast into a good family.

"Karma? Honestly, don't be brainwashed by Yu Sichen. In this world, where is there any Karma?" Zuer snorted coldly and said, "Living in this world is about enjoying life while you can. Doing whatever you want is the true path; don't live your life feeling stifled every day."
