Chapter 19 Off to the Thunder Planet!
1328 Words
Leaving home was always a melancholy thing to do. Mu Yunfei didn't tell his mother where he was going, but only said that he needed to go abroad on business. Although he didn't take the courses in M University, he still got straight as on his report with his superior intelligence. Therefore, a genius like him was granted the special permission from M University to not attend classes.
As for his father, Mu Yunfei rarely contacted him. He only knew that his father worked abroad all the time, but this time, Mu Yunfei decided to tell him about the news on phone.
Mu Yunfei kept getting a busy signal. It had been a long time, but no one answered the phone. Mu Yunfei shook his head helplessly. Just when he was about to hang up, a low voice rang out.
"Yunfei." Mu Zhan called.
"Daddy!" Mu Yunfei was surprised at the unexpected voice, but what followed was a surge of joy.
"Daddy, I have to be away on business and won't be at home for some time. Although you haven't been at home for a long time too, I still want to tell you about it, in case you worry about me." Mu Yunfei said slowly, and his tone was respectful but tinged with longings. He respected his father, Mu Zhan, because in Mu Yunfei's eyes, his father was a genius. The Mu family's business empire was built up by his father with his own hands! However, what Mu Yunfei didn't know was that his father was also a genius in other fields...
"Alright, I see. Work hard!" Mu Zhan encouraged, with peaceful tone as usual. How wouldn't he know that Mu Yunfei was lying to him? It was he and William who assigned the task this time.
Seeing his son growing up little by little, Mu Zhan felt relieved deep down inside, but he, who always appeared stern, was not good at expressing his encouragement and love to his son...
Mu Yunfei put down his phone, took a deep breath and looked out of the window. In this season, it was rarely sunny in S City. Sunlight came in through the window and fell upon his body, and it felt extraordinarily warm. Mu Yunfei enjoyed such an afternoon, and also cherished it, because this place would be missed by him tomorrow as he would leave for the Thunder planet to carry out the task.
However, what Mu Yunfei didn't know was that things didn't go smoothly as he imagined.
...
At the top of Crux Mountain in G City.
Two shadows appeared suddenly, emitting a faint glow of light.
"How's the preparation going?" A man in black asked, his red pupils shining. It was exactly the young master of Dreamland World, Dream Cloud.
"Everything done, young master." Another man in black aside answered reverently. It was Broken Dream. As the best killer of Dreamland World, he had assassinated a lot of people unnoticed, but he respected the man in front of him, Dream Cloud. First, it was because Dream Cloud was his young master; second, it was because his young master had the absolute power right now. He was at the top level of Golden Bloodline, which was close to the Sacred Bloodline. Therefore, Broken Dream was no match for him.
Dream Cloud sneered, "Fine, we'll leave for the Thunder Planet tomorrow." He told Broken Dream to build a transmission ladder between the earth and the Thunder Planet, and this was not something difficult for Broken Dream, who had participated in the communication between the earth and Dreamland World.
Within a few days, a transmission ladder was built on Crux Mountain.
"Mu Yunfei! You'll come to a bad end on the Thunder Planet!" Dream Cloud stared at the transmission ladder in front of him and said coldly. His tone was full of outright viciousness and intense hatred.
The ferocious aura even made Broken Dream next to him shudder.
...
Usually, one didn't want many people to see him off, but even if there weren't many people, it was still a sad scene.
At this moment, Mu Yunfei and Nana stood shoulder to shoulder in front of the transmission ladder at S City Star Branch. "In the past, close contacts were maintained between the elemental planets, so there're fixed entrances for this transmission ladder but no fixed exits, which means, you could appear anywhere on the Thunder Planet." Nollet, the head of the technology department explained.
Mu Yunfei couldn't help but cast a glance at Nana beside him. He thought of the scene when she had made a sudden appearance back then, which frightened him so much.
Nana seemed to have noticed Mu Yunfei's gaze. She shot him an angry glance. "I was guided by the stars. I came especially for you!" As she said that, Nana suddenly had a weird feeling. Blushing, she looked away.
"Yunfei." William called. Now he was in a suit as usual. His hair was meticulously styled, as if it would never get messy.
"You have to be careful during this journey to the Thunder Planet. Although they have remained neutral for a long time, there must be people holding different points of view." William said seriously, a tinge of warning in his tone. "The more honest one is, the more dangerous he will be when in danger."
Mu Yunfei stared at the head before him and had a few hunches that their journey to the Thunder Planet this time must be full of hardships.
Long Ao patted the two on the shoulders and said, "Come on kids! I believe you can make it!" Those were some simple words, but they showed Long Ao's unconditional trust in them.
Staring at the three heads in front of him, Mu Yunfei suddenly felt a surge of warmth welling up within his body. Although only three people saw them off, Mu Yunfei still felt that he was treated with great courtesy. It was some kind of feeling that even he, a man with noble birth, had never experienced before.
Suddenly, Mu Yunfei felt as if he was charging at the enemy and would die fighting on the battlefield. Such a feeling originated from their confidence in themselves, as well as the heart yearning for the endless light.
Mu Yunfei and Nana walked into the transmission ladder slowly, stared at the three before them with a smile and said, "Wait for us to come back!"
In the flickering light, the transmission ladder started. The space around them was warped gradually. Little by little, the image before their eyes became blurry. Mu Yunfei could feel that his body was drawn backwards, and then he fell into the endless darkness.
...
On Crux Mountain.
Sensing that Mu Yunfei's smell was moving away from the earth gradually, Dream Cloud and Broken Dream also started to take actions. Different from Mu Yunfei's sentimental farewell, they had nothing to miss on this planet, but the endless hatred!
The two of them disappeared with a flash from the mountaintop which was thousands of meters above the ground.
"Mu Yunfei!" Dream Cloud's resentful voice echoed across the misty valley for a long time.
...
When Mu Yunfei opened his eyes again, he found that both Nana and he were lying prone in the forest.
As expected, the exit was random and casual. Mu Yunfei thought to himself.
Mu Yunfei looked around. It was extremely quiet, and he didn't find anything unusual. The two got up from the ground slowly, checking their own appearances.
"Where shall we go now?" Mu Yunfei brushed the dirt off his clothes and asked.
"I have no idea. Let's walk and see. Let's walk out of the forest first." Nana said flatly.
Mu Yunfei turned around slowly, but when he looked at Nana, his pupils contracted all of a sudden. There were hundreds of pairs of eyes gleaming behind Nana. Some things seemed to be approaching them slowly.
Those were!
