Only My Way

“It's been ten days…”

After softly sighing, Wu Yanlian sat on the wooden chair, legs crossed, and muttered to herself with an expression of utter boredom:

“Is that guy alright?”

Facing this question that she had heard many times, Xi Xianlan, who was sitting cross-legged beside her, quietly cultivating, replied weakly:

“What could have happened?”

“Aren't all the safeguards he placed on himself untouched?”

Before, although he had confidence in himself, Ling Wuyuan, after discussing with Xi Xianlan and the others to be safe, ultimately made some extra preparations.

Now, the fact that those methods have not been activated directly indicates that there are no problems on Ling Wuyuan's side, and everything is proceeding normally.

Therefore, Xi Xianlan was somewhat speechless regarding Wu Yanlian's worries.

She felt that Wu Yanlian was a little too concerned about Ling Wuyuan.

However, Wu Yanlian didn't seem to agree with her statement.

“But he hasn't made any moves for a long time, which isn't a good sign.

When I communicated with Sixth Sister through the communication token yesterday, Sixth Sister also expressed some concern about the matter…”

Listening to these words, Xi Xianlan could only shake her head and sigh:

“If you're really that concerned, why don't you go in and take a look yourself?”

“Anyway, he said that if something really happened, just go in and find him, without too many worries.”

“In this regard, although reading the [Memory Plunder Seed] does have some risks, the user can often choose to interrupt the process themselves.

It's not something that once started, there's no choice…”

Faced with this statement, Wu Yanlian was a little tempted, but then felt that doing so might disturb Ling Wuyuan.

For a moment, she became hesitant…

As the third person present, Bai Jingshu, who was originally reading a book attentively, glanced at Wu Yanlian, who was really thinking about the relevant issues, and couldn't help but feel a fleeting helplessness and reverie in her heart:

'Sixth Sister's vision is really good, even Third Sister is about to fall for him…'

Incidentally, she was also somewhat curious about Ling Wuyuan's actual situation.

Curious about what exactly happened to him.

Whether she and the others needed to withdraw from this [Dragon Beast Mountain Range] in advance.

— —

Dozens of minutes later, just as Wu Yanlian felt that she really needed to see what was going on with Ling Wuyuan, the tightly closed door of the room was opened.

Ling Wuyuan's figure also slowly walked out.

Seeing this situation, the expression on Wu Yanlian's face immediately changed, reverting to her usual relaxed and casual demeanor.

“Yo~”

“You're out~”

“Why so slow?”

“Any gains??”

She came up and asked a series of questions thoughtlessly, completely devoid of the tangled look just now.

Xi Xianlan and Bai Jingshu were both speechless.

They deeply understood that their good junior sister was really a dignified person, extremely concerned about face, and unwilling for Ling Wuyuan to know that she cared about him.

Ling Wuyuan, who didn't know what the three of them were up to, responded with a somewhat pained expression:

“There are some gains… but things are a bit too complicated.”

“So complicated that even I can't quite understand it, let alone describe it…”

How should the situation be described…

Now that things have come to this, he really found it hard to talk about things like cosmic monsters fighting interstellar civilizations.

There was no way.

Things were too absurd.

It was like when Sherlock Holmes was investigating a murder case in the wilderness, regardless of whether the truth was a crime of passion, revenge, or random killing… everyone would think things were reasonable.

If it was really amazing, you could say that the truth was actually that an ancient Bigfoot attacked humans, and everyone could barely accept the reality and treat it as some kind of strange tale.

But, if you said that the real truth behind the scenes was a situation caused by the Zerglings fighting the Transformers, and the deceased was killed by a fragment that fell from a Transformer during a fierce battle… everyone would definitely find it difficult to accept the reality and wouldn't understand what you were talking about at all.

What was all this?

The development of things was really unexpectedly large.

Not to mention Wu Yanlian and the others, even Ling Wuyuan himself was full of question marks.

If he wasn't very sure that there was nothing wrong with those memory fragments, he even suspected that he might have developed some kind of hallucination or was being tricked by that big squid.

But he was very sure that he hadn't encountered any hallucinations, and the memory fragments weren't false information deliberately fabricated by that big squid.

Those memory fragments were all real…

This made him feel genuinely pained and at a loss.

In the end, facing the curiosity and inquiries of the three, Ling Wuyuan could only speak very vaguely:

“Things are a bit abstract.”

“I can't explain it clearly right now.”

“However, fortunately, after absorbing and sorting it out during this period, I did find a lot of useful things from those memory fragments.”

“For example, the addresses and access methods of some special resource points.”

“Therefore, regarding this trip to the [Dragon Beast Mountain Range], we really have gained a lot.”

Hearing this, Xi Xianlan and the others were also stunned:

“Things are a bit abstract?”

“What a strange way of saying it…”

Although they could roughly understand Ling Wuyuan's meaning, and could also feel some unspeakable secrets in his words, understanding that there were some things that he couldn't express, the other party's description still made a question mark immediately pop up in their minds.

They didn't understand what Ling Wuyuan knew through the target's memory fragments that could make him reveal such an expression…

Causing the three of them to be curious about the truth behind the matter.

It's just that, knowing Ling Wuyuan's character, they didn't ask anything at this time.

Because they knew very well that since the truth of the matter could make Ling Wuyuan reveal such an expression, then it would definitely not be simple, and might even involve extremely great things, so great that Ling Wuyuan would find it difficult to speak and be deeply tabooed.

There must be a limit to doing things.

Don't ask things that shouldn't be asked…

Holding this thought, Xi Xianlan nodded and said after hesitating for a while:

“The location and access methods of special resource points…”

“Since you were able to gain something, then that can be regarded as a great thing.”

“As for those things that you can't easily say, you can think about them yourself first.”

“Tell us when you feel the time is right.”

“Anyway, we're not in a hurry at all.”

“Furthermore, that is originally something that belongs to you, so it should be decided by you yourself.”

Having said that, Xi Xianlan clapped her hands lightly and said:

“At this moment, let's celebrate first~”

“Celebrate that you were really able to plunder that part of the memory fragments~”

Hearing these words, Ling Wuyuan naturally had no reason to say anything more, and replied with a smile: “Okay!”
