Wu Shattered Star River

#389 - Chapter 389: Never Return

Jiang Han found He Ming, who frowned upon hearing the news.

He pondered for a moment and said, "The Valley of the Undying is very dangerous; few who enter ever return. Moreover, this news feels like a rumor, deliberately designed to lure you there."

Jiang Han's eyes flashed, and he gritted his teeth, saying, "Please, Chief Manager, help me investigate the news. Even if there's only a sliver of a chance, I have to make a trip to this Valley of the Undying."

Without the Soul Sacred Medicine, Jiang Li might remain asleep forever.

Therefore, as long as there was a glimmer of hope, even if the Valley of the Undying was perilous, and few who entered survived, even if only a hundred out of ten thousand could return, he would go without hesitation.

"Alright!"

He Ming nodded slightly and said, "I'll try to find warriors who survived the Valley of the Undying ten years ago and ask them about the situation there. Also, I'll inquire with the people stationed at the Outer Affairs Hall outside Undying City. You go back and wait for news."

Jiang Han cupped his hands in thanks and departed, but He Ming did not arrange for anyone to send a message. Instead, he entered the backyard of the City Lord's Mansion.

Lan Lin was leisurely reading a book there. He only glanced at He Ming when he entered.

He Ming walked to Lan Lin's side, bowed respectfully, and said, "City Lord, news has come from the Valley of the Undying that a Violet Immortal Lotus has appeared. I suspect it's a rumor to lure the Young City Lord there."

"Valley of the Undying?"

Lan Lin frowned slightly. He pondered for a moment and said, "There is indeed a Violet Immortal Lotus inside, but I don't know if it's matured yet. Jiang Han wants to go?"

He Ming nodded. Lan Lin pondered again for a moment and said, "Have someone investigate. If the Violet Immortal Lotus is likely to have matured, then let Jiang Han make a trip."

He Ming's expression became grave, and he asked, "If the Young City Lord goes, the Azure Garment Palace, Starfall Pavilion, and Eternal Night Palace will definitely send out a large number of experts to surround and kill him."

"It doesn't matter!"

Lan Lin said, "The Valley of the Undying only allows warriors under the age of thirty to enter, and no one under thirty has broken through to the Void Realm yet. If it's just a group of Heaven-Human Realm cultivators, Jiang Han should have a chance to return alive."

He Ming wanted to say something more, but Lan Lin waved his hand and said, "The greater the pressure on Jiang Han, the faster he grows. A comfortable life will only slow his progress. Let him go. Otherwise, if he has an obsession in his heart, it will give rise to inner demons, and if things continue like this, he might be ruined."

"Alright!"

He Ming nodded and turned to go out and send a message to verify the truth of the news.

Thirteen days later, He Ming obtained accurate information. A young master from a King-level force in the Chaotic Star Sea had entered the Valley of the Undying ten years ago.

He said that there was indeed a Violet Immortal Lotus in the Valley of the Undying, and according to his calculations, one should have matured this time. Of course, he wasn't certain, but he said it was possible.

In addition, the personnel stationed at Undying City also sent a message saying that the possibility of the Violet Immortal Lotus maturing this time was extremely high.

He Ming brought the news to Jiang Han, who immediately went to find Lan Lin without any hesitation.

Before Jiang Han could speak, Lan Lin smiled and said, "Decided?"

Jiang Han nodded firmly and said, "Master, I want to make a trip."

Lan Lin smiled and said, "You should be clear that once you enter the Valley of the Undying, the Azure Garment Palace, Starfall Pavilion, and Eternal Night Palace, and even some other forces, will not remain indifferent. We can't enter the Valley of the Undying. If you enter, you may be surrounded and killed by a group of experts."

Jiang Han didn't think so much. After hearing this, his eyes remained firm, and he said, "Disciple still wants to go."

"Then go!"

Lan Lin said indifferently, "The path is your own choice, and you are responsible for your own life and death. If you die, don't worry about Jiang Li. I will take good care of her. If there is an opportunity, I will look for the Sacred Medicine to awaken her."

Jiang Han bowed deeply and said, "Master's kindness to me is as heavy as a mountain, and Jiang Han will never be able to repay it in this lifetime."

Lan Lin waved his hand and said, "I haven't been to the Valley of the Undying, so I don't know the situation inside. He Ming will give you a copy of the information later. Remember one thing—stay away from the Undying Tree!"

"Undying Tree?"

Jiang Han nodded. Lan Lin withdrew his gaze and continued reading. Jiang Han didn't waste any words, bowed deeply again, and left.

He Ming didn't leave and asked, "City Lord, should I make a trip myself? Send him to Yun Province?"

"No need!"

Lan Lin thought for a while and said, "Let Gu Qingtian make a trip. Earth Immortal-level warriors shouldn't dare to touch him. Gu Qingtian accompanying him is enough."

"Alright!"

He Ming went down to make arrangements. Jiang Han returned to the small courtyard and began to arrange things.

He called Jiang Lang, Zuo Yiyi, Qi Bing, Xiong Jingjing, and Niu Meng over and told them about his trip to the Valley of the Undying.

Qi Bing remained silent, Xiong Jingjing was somewhat worried, Zuo Yiyi hesitated, and Niu Meng scratched his head.

Jiang Lang grinned and said, "Brother Han, should I make a trip with you? I won't enter the valley, but I'll accompany you on the road so you won't be bored."

Zuo Yiyi's eyes lit up, and she said, "We'll all go with you. How about we return to the Yunmeng Pavilion?"

Xiong Jingjing asked doubtfully, "Is there still time? It takes a long time to go to Yun Province."

Qi Bing glanced at Jiang Han and said, "Jiang Han will definitely go to the Divine Ruins Palace over there and take the super teleportation array. Don't join in the fun. That kind of teleportation array requires a huge cost for each teleportation. Let's stay here obediently."

Jiang Han nodded and said, "Indeed, I need to take the teleportation array. I'll go alone. You guys wait here for me to come back. Jiang Lang, don't go either."

"Alright!"

Jiang Lang didn't force it. He also knew that his combat power would only be a burden to Jiang Han if he went to the Valley of the Undying.

Since he was taking the super teleportation array, he could directly reach Undying City, so accompanying Jiang Han wouldn't be of much use.

"I'll leave Jiang Li to the three of you to take care of!"

Jiang Han looked at Qi Bing, Zuo Yiyi, and Xiong Jingjing. He thought for a while and added, "If there's enough time, I'll go back to the Yunmeng Pavilion and take a look at the Pavilion Master and the others for you."

As soon as this was mentioned, the faces of Zuo Yiyi, Qi Bing, and Xiong Jingjing dimmed.

It was false to say that the three of them didn't miss home after being out for so long. However, the three of them were not strong enough, and it would definitely be dangerous to go back alone, so they could only wait until later.

Jiang Han also urged Jiang Lang, saying, "During the days I'm away, keep a low profile and don't mess around, or it'll be troublesome if something happens."

Jiang Lang grinned and said, "Don't worry, I can recite the Heavenly Chaos Army's iron rules backwards. I won't mess around."

Jiang Han thought for a while, got up, and walked outside. He didn't call Gao Shan and Gao Wan, but flew into the air alone and flew towards Sword Demon Peak.

He hadn't seen Si Li in the past six months. Si Li had been very low-key during these six months, only participating in four battles, and spending the rest of the time in seclusion.

He was about to go to the Valley of the Undying, and this trip was uncertain, so Jiang Han thought about saying goodbye.

Jiang Han flew directly to the outside of Si Li's small courtyard. He knocked on the door, and Si Li's voice rang out, "Come in."

Jiang Han walked into the courtyard and entered the hall. Si Li was sitting cross-legged on a futon. Seeing Jiang Han enter, she asked in a deep voice, "What's the matter?"

Jiang Han nodded and said, "I'm going to leave Heavenly Chaos Island and make a trip to the Valley of the Undying. I'm here to say goodbye."

"Valley of the Undying?"

Si Li's eyebrows furrowed slightly, and she asked, "Is it necessary to go?"

Jiang Han nodded and said, "It's necessary to go!"

Si Li said again, "If you go and never return…"

Jiang Han said very firmly, "Then I will go and never return!"

"Alright!"

Si Li sighed and said, "Be careful. Once you leave Heavenly Chaos Island, the Azure Garment Palace will definitely take action."

"I'm leaving. Take care!"

Jiang Han cupped his hands, then looked deeply at Si Li, turned and went out, and flew away into the air.

Si Li watched Jiang Han disappear into the distance. After watching for a while, she sighed again, "This trip is likely to be another bloodbath. Jiang Han, I hope you can return alive. I don't have many friends to begin with, and I don't want to lose one…"
