At this moment, Lin Yun fell silent once more. How should he choose?
Lin Yun was very clear about how great the risk of soul reincarnation was.
So, to truly make this choice was too difficult.
“Hmm?”
Just then, Lin Yun noticed that the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace token suddenly transmitted a message.
The content of the message was to summon Lin Yun to return to the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace with utmost haste.
“The Heavenly Fire Divine Palace has sent me a message, telling me to return immediately.” Lin Yun looked up at the bearded man.
“Oh? Did it say what it’s for?” The bearded man immediately followed up.
“No, it just says to return to the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace with utmost haste.” Lin Yun said.
“Could it be that the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace has detected some clues? If you go back now, there might be risks.” The bearded man’s expression grew solemn.
“My death servant contract is still in effect now. If they summon me and I do not go back, that would be even worse.” Lin Yun said helplessly.
“How about this? You go back first. As for the matter of unbinding the soul contract, I see that you are finding it hard to decide directly right now, so take some more time to think it over properly.” The bearded man said.
Given the current situation, the only method that could be used was soul reincarnation, but the bearded man also knew that it would be extremely difficult for Lin Yun to make that choice.
For their Wuji Heavenly Palace, they certainly did not want Lin Yun to meet with any mishap.
But there was no way around it. Without unbinding the soul contract, Lin Yun could not join the Wuji Heavenly Palace.
“That will have to do.” Lin Yun nodded in agreement.
“Junior Sister An, go with him to the Northern Flame Domain. Hide yourself in the Northern Flame Domain, so that if anything happens, you can look after him. He is extremely important to our Wuji Heavenly Palace now. He must not meet with any mishap!” The bearded man turned his head and said to the short-haired woman beside him.
“As you command, Senior Brother.” The short-haired woman cupped her hands in acknowledgement.
The bearded man then looked at Lin Yun again.
“Lin Yun, this is the secret technique for performing soul reincarnation. I will give it to you first. As for how you choose, that is entirely up to you.”
After the bearded man finished speaking, he took out a secret technique manual and handed it to Lin Yun.
“Alright.” Lin Yun received this secret technique manual.
“Good. You two go now. Lin Yun, if you have any matters, contact Junior Sister An. She will contact us.” The bearded man said to Lin Yun.
“Mm.” Lin Yun nodded in agreement.
Thereupon, Lin Yun and that short-haired woman rose into the air together, leaving the Ancestral Heart Realm and heading straight for the Northern Flame Domain.
…
Inside the castle.
“Senior Brother, he has just left like that, and he is returning to the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace. I always feel a bit uneasy in my heart.” The red-haired man said.
The bearded man gazed at the sky: “There is no way around it. We finally found someone who could successfully pass the Wuji trial, yet he is a death servant of the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace. To remove the death servant status is indeed too troublesome, and the risk is extremely high.”
If the death servant status could be easily removed, then the death servant contract would have long been useless.
“I am just afraid that in the end he chooses the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace over us. That would be even more disadvantageous to us. Although we can abandon this castle, once Junior Sister An goes with him, if he is unwilling to take the risk of soul reincarnation and chooses to continue serving the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace loyally, then Junior Sister An’s life may be in danger.” The red-haired man said.
“I can see that Lin Yun has a heart that discerns right from wrong. His character is not bad either, so he should be unwilling to continue selling his life for the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace. Of course, in the current situation, there are certainly risks. We finally found such a person, so we must also take a certain risk.” The bearded man said.
…
After three months of hurried travel, Lin Yun finally returned to the Northern Flame Domain.
“Lin Yun, I cannot go to the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace with you, so I can only hide in the Northern Flame Domain first.” The short-haired woman said.
“Of course I understand that. Then you go to Tao’an City first and wait for me there.” Lin Yun said.
Tao’an City was the main city closest to the Heavenly Fire Divine Palace.
“Lin Yun, I have not introduced myself to you along the way. My name is An Yun, and I am at the Virtual Dao Realm. Before you join the Wuji Heavenly Palace, you can address me directly by name.” The short-haired woman said.
“Alright.” Lin Yun nodded.
The two hurried all the way to the outskirts of Tao’an City.
“Dao Friend An Yun, this is Tao’an City.” Lin Yun pointed ahead.
“Good. Then I will wait for you in Tao’an City. Take this bracelet. You can use it to contact me at any time. If there is anything, contact me at any time.” An Yun handed a bracelet to Lin Yun.
