Chapter 348

~7 min read 1,217 words

Since everyone is already assembled, let's set off.

A somewhat childish voice rang out beside everyone's ears.

Gu Han couldn't be bothered with their hostility, and followed the sound with his gaze.

But all he saw was Zi Ling.

In the next instant, he saw a child standing beside Zi Ling… a kid?

That child had two buns, bangs covering half of their cheeks, and wore a flower wreath on their head.

They looked soft and squishy, extremely cute.

Wasn't it said that Zi Ling and Teacher An would be traveling with us?

Gu Han had just thought this when he heard Zi Ling say,

This is Teacher An Jianan.

Upon hearing this, everyone present was stunned!

Many of them had already arrived at Heavenly Universe City during the previous openings of Chong Yuan.

Although they hadn't managed to infiltrate the core of the Savior Heir, they had also had a few encounters with Feng Yuexian.

But they had only ever heard that the most respected person among the Savior Heir was one called An Jianan.

Yet they never imagined that An Jianan was actually that child they often saw!

Whenever they passed through the streets and alleys of Heavenly Universe City, they had seen An Jianan more than once playing shuttlecock and jumping rope with the street children.

They would even occasionally play with small explosives!

But they could never connect that child with the leader of the Savior Heir.

And An Jianan seemed already accustomed to the surprised gazes of strangers.

She put her hands on her hips, and without waiting for Gu Han to direct everyone to trigger, she said with a grin,

Since everyone is already ready, let's set off!

As her words fell, ripples stirred in the space ahead, and a door appeared out of thin air.

Gu Han blinked, and the words Feng Yuexian had said earlier echoed in his mind.

Now, the Savior Heir has altogether collected the sparks of three deities.

They are romance, pathway, and deceit.

According to Bai Ce, Feng Yuexian is the demigod of romance.

Now it seems this little girl, An Jianan, is likely the demigod of the pathway!

The other ten, not knowing the specifics of the Savior Heir, were all looking doubtfully at the door that had suddenly appeared before them.

Seeing the doubtful expressions on everyone's faces, An Jianan immediately stepped forward as soon as the door opened.

In the next moment, An Jianan's body flickered and then vanished from the spot.

Time is pressing; please, everyone, make haste.

Zi Ling's gaze swept over everyone, she nodded at them, and then promptly stepped through the door after them.

This should be similar to a teleportation array, right?

Everyone present were high-ranking figures from their respective forces, and naturally they had seen teleportation arrays in some places.

But those teleportation arrays are usually fixed in place and can only perform point-to-point transmission.

However, judging by An Jianan's method, it is obviously not that simple a fixed-point transmission!

If it truly allowed one to teleport to any specified location at any time, that would be utterly unfathomable!

Upon considering this possibility, everyone's faces subtly changed.

A means that allows those accompanying to go to a designated location at any time.

Just this alone would be something any faction would flock to!

Gu Han, meanwhile, had fewer thoughts; after Zi Ling entered the door, he followed her in.

The other ten were also unwilling to lag behind and immediately followed.

Upon stepping through the door, everyone felt a faint sensation of weightlessness.

Opening their eyes again, what appeared before them was already a completely different scene!

In the blink of an eye, we've crossed tens of thousands of li?

After receiving the mission from Feng Yuexian, they had inquired about the location of the Hall of Learned Gods.

Even though the distance is tens of thousands of li, even if they rushed at full speed, it would still take some time.

But now, it took less than a breath to get here!

The breaths of the ten grew somewhat heavy, and their gazes toward An Jianan filled with avaricious gleam!

Meanwhile, An Jianan and Zi Ling seemed unaware of the change in everyone's expressions, as they were surveying the surroundings.

Zi Ling merely glanced and then spoke in a low voice,

I never expected the Black Tide to still be one step ahead of us!

Zi Ling had once been a student, studying in the Hall of Learned Gods.

She could naturally tell the difference between the present Hall of Learned Gods and how it used to be.

An Jianan nodded, and her childish voice rang out beside everyone's ears,

It seems the Black Tide's assault on Sheng Cheng is merely meant to delay us; they have long since diverted part of their strength to attack the Hall of Learned Gods!

Gu Han narrowed his eyes, looking at the distant imposing architectural complex that exuded a hint of deathly stillness.

At first he thought it was the scholars of the Hall of Learned Gods deeply engrossed in research, without any disturbance.

But now it seems the chilling, grim aura in the air is likely the deathly qi of the Hall of Learned Gods' scholars.

This is the sanctum of the God of Reason; if the Black Tide wishes to destroy the Hall of Learned Gods, the God of Reason will certainly not stand idly by.

Zi Ling remained expressionless; even facing this terrible situation now, she still hadn't changed.

We must now prepare for the worst—that the spark of the God of Reason has already been seized by the Black Tide!

An Jiannan seemed to sense something with her eyes, then slowly opened them, revealing a wise light.

I just sensed a little; the God of Reason's aura still lingers, so the Black Tide hasn't yet succeeded!

As soon as those words were spoken, Zi Ling's somewhat dim gaze instantly brightened.

If so, we must set out immediately and absolutely not let the Black Tide succeed!

Saying this, An Jiannan nodded and took out a pair of tiny wings from her pocket.

Each wing looked no bigger than Gu Han's palm.

She attached the wings to her back, and this pair of wings soon began to flap.

Moreover, An Jiannan's body also shakily rose into flight.

And soon she could fly steadily, as if these wings were meant to grow on her body.

I'll go ahead to scout the path; you all catch up quickly.

An Jiannan said, then flew toward the majestic Hall of Learned Gods building complex ahead.

Zi Ling instantly became somewhat anxious and shouted loudly,

"Teacher, remember, absolutely do not land recklessly!"

"Little Zi Ling, rest assured!"

An Jiannan's voice came from afar; although she promised Zi Ling's request, Zi Ling still couldn't stop worrying.

"Everyone, let's also set off quickly."

Zi Ling said and then ran toward the building complex ahead without looking back.

"Miss Zi Ling, I'll carry you to fly……"

Gu Han had just said half of that when he discovered a terrifying thing.

That is, he actually couldn't fly up!

Even if he condensed the Thunder Patrol Wings, he still couldn't leave the ground to fly!

"How is this possible?"

Beside him came an incredulous low growl.
