Chapter 374: Origin

380. Chapter 380: Origin

"Someone from the Supreme Council has come to pick me up."

Dean Frisst said lightly, then began to attentively prepare his tea.

To be honest, Dean Frisst felt unaccomplished; he thought he'd have to put in some effort to convince Lin Ke to agree.

Who would have thought, he hadn't even exerted himself yet, and Lin Ke already agreed.

At least let him have a sense of participation in the affair of the parallel universe divine civilization's envoy delegation.

Mm…

After Dean Frisst advanced to Seventh Rank Grand Sage, his personality became more carefree, and he had many petty thoughts.

Perhaps the Diomande family has a genetic trait of growing younger with age.

"Then I'll wait."

Although Lin Ke wanted to quickly settle the karma, he wasn't in a hurry at all.

Being in a hurry isn't a transaction; there's no need to be so impatient.

Of course, he wouldn't put on any airs.

The person sent by the Supreme Council to fetch him has arrived; just follow them.

For now there's still time; Lin Ke seized the opportunity to ask Dean Frisst a few questions.

Mainly, regarding the artificer wizard school he founded, there are some points where, due to limited breadth and depth of knowledge, he has never found a definite answer.

Dean Frisst, as well as the two Eighth Rank Grand Sages behind him, greatly value Lin Ke's artificer wizard school.

Although a Fourth Rank Sage, in the current situation he cannot help the Rivorsoth Academy much, nor the Diomande family much.

However, Linke Grand has attracted strong attention from the parallel universe's divine civilization, and he shares a deep bond with the reincarnated Holy One of Nostrodamus; this alone proves that valuing Lin Ke however much is not excessive.

After hearing Lin Ke's questions, Dean Frisst pondered long before answering, trying to ensure his answers would be helpful.

"Thank you, Dean."

A Seventh Rank Grand Sage is a Seventh Rank Grand Sage.

Even if Dean Frisst is a pure, traditional elemental wizard who does not study other schools.

His research and insights on many problems are well worth learning from and drawing upon.

This lecture isn't something just anyone can attend if they want.

Lin Ke's thanks came from the heart, utterly sincere.

After the Q&A, the two chatted a while longer, and then Lin Ke took his leave.

On the way back, Lin Ke was confident that the academy had already passed its most difficult stage and would not be in an awkward situation like the previous two months.

After all, the Tower of Grand Sage Michelle has altogether 'relocated,' embarking on an expedition to the parallel universe.

Within the Rivorsoth District, the various big and small powers haven't even had time to pay respects to the new boss at the dock, let alone cause trouble.

Outside the Rivorsoth District, all the way to the western coast and indeed the entire wizard world, those wizards and factions that had given the Rivorsoth Academy a hard time, after venting their anger, also ceased their hostilities.

The Magic Stone is innocent.

Pure opposition only leads to mutual loss, with no benefit.

The Supreme Council won't just sit by and let this internal strife continue indefinitely.

"How was it? What did the Dean want to talk to you about?"

Upon returning home, Mo Li embraced her daughter Melia and came forward, asking with concern.

"It's about the parallel universe."

Lin Ke reached out to take his daughter, held her in his arms, and truthfully replied, "The divine civilization has sent a revisit delegation; the Heavenly Master Xu Jing is the envoy, and they wish to meet me."

"Heavenly Master Xu Jing?"

Mo Li became Lin Ke's wife, and she learned many things from him.

Including his experiences in the mortal immortal martial world.

She is not unfamiliar with the figure of Heavenly Master Xu Jing.

"When are you going to see him?"

"The Supreme Council has sent someone to fetch me; I'll follow their arrangements."

"I see."

Mo Li's brow twitched, and the precognitive trait of the God-Eating Insect came into play.

She foresaw that this trip of Lin Ke's would require at least ten days to half a month before he could return home.

After glancing at her daughter sleeping soundly, Mo Li bit her lip, and her gaze became hazy.

Ordinary human women can resume intercourse two months after a natural birth.

As a Third Rank Wizard, Mo Li's body had fully recovered just two days after giving birth.

However, Lin Ke has been restraining himself on the pretext of nurturing his body.

Over the past two months, Mo Li's thoughts have been more focused on her daughter, so she hasn't made any demands.

Now, the heartless Lin Ke wants to abandon mother and daughter, go out and indulge in revelry—shouldn't we first drain him dry?

Mo Li will never forget that Ai Rui Si. Ke La Ke is in the Supreme Council, and moreover she is the ambassador of the five-person envoy to the parallel universe.

The reception of the divine civilization's revisit delegation will certainly not be lacking Ai Rui Si. Ke La Ke.

This time Lin Ke goes to see Heavenly Master Xu Jing; it's impossible for him not to come into contact with Ai Rui Si. Ke La Ke.

Therefore, even though Mo Li and Ai Rui Si. Ke La Ke have a close relationship and maintain extremely frequent contact, she still won't let down her guard against that scheming woman.

Thinking thus, Mo Li summoned the intelligent housekeeper and told it to watch over Melia well.

Mo Li herself then took Lin Ke's hand, and they went upstairs together.

The bathroom, the large bed, the windowsill, before the dressing mirror.

Almost mad.

【64】

The next day.

【66】

The Supreme Council had sent someone to meet his team, and they had already arrived at Dean Frisster's office, so Link had to get down to business.

【68】

One is an acquaintance, and the other is also an acquaintance.

【70】

Mm...

【72】

Once bitten by a snake, one fears a well rope for ten years.

【74】

After meeting Link, they immediately returned, not staying a second longer at Ruiwo Siwei Academy.

【76】

Dean Frisster watched the aircraft fly out of sight, his eyes inscrutable.

【79】 (note missing 78)

He has offended quite a few people.

【81】

"Take it slow."

【83】

Time is on the side of Ruiwo Siwei Academy.

【86】 (missing 85)

Saint

"▲ttkдn▲co" This looks like garbled; maybe it's an emoticon or something. It's not a name. Probably ignore.

(missing 87)

【90】

Sandora Diamond led the team, accompanied by Lan Ni Taylor and Tiffany Kolonna, while secretly, Grand Sage Rosenthal and Grand Sage Waters—a pair who couldn't stand each other—joined forces to provide protection.

【92】

It was another long journey across the entire West Coast.

【94】

Accompanied by Lady Lissandra and Sage Fletcher Domingo, Link first went to the Ruiwo Siwei Academy's office at the Supreme Council to rest.

【96】

The rest of today's time has been specially set aside for Link to learn about some matters concerning the Immortal Gods Civilization's return visit delegation.

【98】

Upon seeing Link, she opened her arms from afar, wanting to give him a warm embrace.

【100】

"Ah!"

【102】

This wail made those who heard it feel sorrowful and those who saw it shed tears.

【104】

"Don't make a fuss."

【106】

"Hmph!"

【108】

However, she didn't forget her duties just to tease Link; she lowered her hands, turned around, and greeted Lady Lissandra and Sage Domingo with proper salutations.

(missing 109)

【112】

At the meeting, in just a few words, she clearly and concisely introduced the return‑visit delegation to the three, especially Link.

【115】 (missing 114)

The wizard world.

【117】

Upon hearing that name again, Link finally noticed something odd.

【119】

In the celestial court spoken of in his past life, the Four Celestial Masters—Zhang, Ge, Sa, and Xu—held high status and considerable strength, but were not among the foremost.

【121】

Moreover, Xu Jing Tian Shi, coming from the Taoist Master's Mansion, is evidently beneath the Four Celestial Masters yet comparable to a ninth‑rank grand sage; aren't the Four Celestial Masters then of saintly rank?

【123】

Therefore, Link reasonably surmised that perhaps the heavenly court of the parallel universe's immortal‑god civilization is not the same heavenly court he heard about in his past life.

【125】

Link kept this discovery to himself and decided to try to find out a bit or two during his contact with Xu Jing Tian Shi.

【127】

This time they were merely providing Link with an escort, to prevent him from encountering unnecessary provocation and trouble.

Lin Ke had nothing to ask, and the meeting then formally ended.

Having refused Ai Rui Si's enthusiastic invitation to hang out, Lin Ke entered the bedroom arranged for him at the office, and rested to preserve his energy.

Tracheitis!

Ai Rui Si watched Lin Ke's departing back, pursed lips, and was very contemptuous of Lin Ke's behavior.

Ai Rui Si turned around, pulled out the Portable Smart Brain, called Mo Li's communicator, and curiously asked: "Mo Li, how did you do it? Lin Ke actually really doesn't want to contact me!"

Mo Li hehe-laughed, but just wouldn't answer.

After all, yesterday was really too crazy.

One hundred times, oh one hundred times.

And the next day.

Under the attention of the Supreme Council, Linke Grand accepted the invitation of the Immortal-Deity Civilization Return Visit Envoy and met privately with the Void Tranquil Heavenly Master.

In a garden where flowers bloomed in profusion and vied for beauty, the Void Tranquil Heavenly Master wore a purple Daoist robe, immortal aura drifting, standing still there, giving the impression of a brilliant galaxy shimmering.

"Linke Grand, greetings to the Void Tranquil Heavenly Master."

Lin Ke stepped forward and performed a salute.

This salute honors the Void Tranquil Heavenly Master, whose status and strength are equivalent to a Ninth-level Great Sage, and also honors the assistance of two imitation seals left by the other party in the Human Immortal Martial Dao World.

"No need for excessive courtesy."

The Void Tranquil Heavenly Master nodded slightly, voice gentle, and lightly waved the duster in hand.

A strand of pure light drifted out from the duster, falling at not-so-fast speed onto Lin Ke's body.

Lin Ke could completely avoid it, not receiving this pure light.

However, Lin Ke restrained his instinct, did not dodge, and just watched the pure light fall.

This is the Wizard World, this is the Supreme Council, and Lin Ke did not think the Void Tranquil Heavenly Master would openly harm him.

Sure enough, the pure light was not an attack but a boon.

The pure light fell on the body, not penetrating the sea of consciousness, but the amber melting in the sea of consciousness silently completely dissolved.

The spacetime of the Human Immortal Martial Dao World began to flow anew.

Lin Ke, at the Fourth-level Sage stage, already possessed his own personal world.

Fu Lan Duo then merged with the Human Immortal Martial Dao World's 'Heavenly Dao', that is, the fusion of world will, becoming a World Spirit.

Ke Nai Li Ya also gained great benefit, transforming from a fire elemental spirit into a Three-legged Golden Crow, nesting and resting on the sun mainly formed by the Wizard World's will.

In the Human Immortal Martial Dao World, the empress died suddenly, the Duke-version Kang Qian Emperor escaped the fate of a puppet, the Daoist Sect Subjugation Force continued advancing, Li Shuwen of the Realm of Seeing Gods looked up, glanced, left the force, and returned to Fuli County.

Lin Ke had no time to continue monitoring the progress of the Human Immortal Martial Dao World, and again performed a salute to the Void Tranquil Heavenly Master to express thanks.

Even without this strand of pure light, Lin Ke would eventually be able to dissolve the amber.

But dissolving it earlier is obviously more beneficial.

"This is what you deserve."

The Void Tranquil Heavenly Master accepted this salute calmly, saying so with deep meaning.

"I don't know why the Heavenly Master summoned me, what is the purpose?"

Lin Ke paid attention to the Void Tranquil Method, but did not ask, instead getting straight to the point.

This meeting, the Supreme Council has been watching.

Personal matters to be discussed later.

"Nothing major, just wanted to take a look at you."

The Void Tranquil Heavenly Master's face showed a gentle smile, but the words spoken shocked Lin Ke and many others.

"Originally, your true spirit came from beyond the heavens, passing through our universe; we wanted to retain it but failed, merely forming a bond."

"Now the bond has been fulfilled, of course we must see in person, you, this honored guest we failed to retain."

Lin Ke:???
