Chapter 41: Mysterious Figures
--- Chapter 40 ---
Yu Long summoned Woby and Yume, telling them to do the usual stuff as he climbed onto a hammock.
He stared at the crystal lamp on the ceiling and commented, "What should I do next?"
"Should I keep developing my faction or take a trip somewhere?"
"My Lord, I believe focusing on your faction is the wisest choice." Yume suddenly commented.
The kaiju is currently in her human form, wearing a tight black suit with a maroon-colored cheongsam above it. Her silky black hair let loose, draping over the couch.
Her job is to read books and give Yu Long some comments, which he later argued to find the most applicable answer. The topic is diverse, starting from profound patterns, arts, aspects, and even medicine.
On the other hand, Woby swallowed stocks upon stocks of medicinal herbs joyfully and made piles of Heart Opening Liquid.
The Slime King also made several rare ingots from minerals that Yuyan gathered, processing them well enough for Shadow Realm's supply.
The three of them usually stayed in this underground room for three hours."Woby, do you feel like about to evolve again?" Yu Long asked while whistling casually.
Woby tilted its head and answered, "Nyuu?"
Yu Long sighed, "I see... The essence spheres used to make you are very common."
"You can blame me for being a novice in [Kaiju Maker]."
The Slime King shook its body and reassured Yu Long that it was fine.
After all, Woby is Yu Long's first-ever kaiju.
Although Woby isn't the strongest, it is still the most prestigious position in Yu Long's army.
"You don't have to console me..."
"When I condensed enough Primordial Energy, I'll add more portions for your upgrade."
Yume glanced at Woby and shook her head gently.
Yu Long's 1st kaiju!
Even Yume and others are jealous of such status.
After Woby used every resource in the room, it asked Yu Long permission to sleep and absorb the waste energy.
"Go ahead." Yu Long nodded in understanding.
Woby waved its tentacle hand and disappeared into thin air, entering the inner world to sleep.

Yume handed one of the Heart Opening Liquid to Yu Long for the quality test, and the latter grabbed the bottle casually. Yu Long opened his mouth and drank the Heart Opening Liquid.
A pulsating sensation comes from his profound entrances as Yu Long's sensitivity is already beyond everyone in the Blue Pole Star. The effect of Heart Opening Liquid isn't so 'effective' for him anymore.
However, if this sensation lasts five seconds, it's good enough.
"Hmm, Qingyue is late." Yume opened her mouth.
"Well, you won't see Qingyue today." Yu Long smirked, knowing damn well that stubborn girl is currently training Elemental Spirit Weapon he shared this morning.
"She's busy with something else."
"Uh, okay... That's unfortunate." Yume pouted slightly.
Among the girls and ladies, Yume is the closest to Xia Qingyue, probably due to their physical appearance being quite different from those bombshell women.
The bombshell women in question are none other than Hong Guan and Yuyan. Lily is in the middle, but the money-grubber is well-developed as well.
"If you want to, you can take a break and visit her." Yu Long enjoyed the swing of the hammock. "In the meantime, I'll take a nap."
"Okay!" Yume agreed without hesitation, leaving him alone in the room.
Yu Long immersed himself in the dream world and told Tanky to give him any unknown individual presence around the Drifting Cloud Mountain Range.
Tanky was in Absolute Sleep, which compelled him to enter a lucid dream state and condense energy from the earth. But he could still communicate with Yu Long through their hearts.
'Okay.' He responded with a low hum and continued to sleep.
Yu Long napped for an hour before his internal clock rang. He rubbed his eyes and saw Lily sorting the Heart Opening Liquid and Ingots that Woby made.
"You're early?" He lazily said while staring at the maid's rear.
Lily smiled and commented, "I always arrived on time, Young Master."
"Nothing makes me more peaceful than counting this liquid gold."
"Unfortunately, we can't sell the Heart Opening Liquid yet." She sighed helplessly.
Yu Long smirked and responded, "It's not like we can't sell it."
"It's just that this world isn't ready for it."
"Just picture the shock of those old fools' expressions when they realize profound entrances aren't absolute."
"I know..." Lily puffed her cheeks. She knew very well that the 'old fools' Yu Long mentioned were people from the four holy lands who lived for over 1,000 years.
Although Lily was known as a money grubber in the Shadow Realm, those old fools were even greedier than her. When Heart Opening Liquid entered their radar, she bet they'd try everything to get it.
They would go so far that even destroying the Blue Wind Empire wasn't far-fetched.
"Lily, have you heard of the Eternal Night Royal Family?" Yu Long asked all of a sudden.
"Eternal Night Royal Family... I'm afraid, no." Lily rubbed her chin.
"Is this family great or something?"
Yu Long chuckled, "Never mind. Just take it as my random rambling."
"Hmm, Weird..." Lily commented, focusing her attention on the piles of Heart Opening Liquid.
Yu Long bounced off the hammock and went to the upper ground, searching for his father.
After a few minutes of searching, he found him sitting on a nearby river with a fishing rod.
Yu Zhan enjoyed the serene atmosphere and casually flicked her fishing line. He caught fish and released it back into the running river.
"I'm searching you all over the clan's compound, and here you are." Yu Long sat beside Yu Zhan.
Yu Zhan laughed and returned, "Your father has to relax sometimes."
"Business has been going well this year, all thanks to you and your people."
"I'm only a businessman by name now."
"Are you sure you aren't going to inherit Yu Clan's Head?" He flashed a smile to his youngest son.
Yu Long shrugged, "Nope."
"Don't even think about it, old man."
"Aih, you're not cute at all." Yu Zhan sighed, lamenting how adult Yu Long was for his age.
"So, I assume you are here to talk about your maternal grandfather and grandmother?"
"Yes." Yu Long nodded casually, which caused Yu Zhan to shake his head bitterly.
"Yu Xin is living in ignorance." Yu Zhan opened the story with a melancholic expression. "When I met her, it was like a dreamy moment of my life."
"But I also felt like my life flashes before my eyes every time."
"What do you mean?" Yu Long frowned slightly.
Yu Zhan tossed the fishing line and added, "That's because your maternal grandfather and grandmother aren't ordinary people like me."
"They are profound practitioners, powerful ones at that. Still, they hid it to protect Yu Xin."
"Oh, this is a secret, by the way." He chuckled.
"Then why did you tell me?" Yu Long massaged his temple.
"I'm not supposed to tell you this, but I believe you're powerful enough right now." He grinned and eyed Yu Long from top to bottom.
It's hard to believe Yu Long was only eleven this year when he had such a developed body. Even the oldest heir is nothing to Yu Long.
'Master, two powerful presences are coming to the Yu Clan!' Tanky said from their connection.
Yu Long tapped the ground and created an array formation to protect his father as two silhouettes landed on the other side of the river.
They are wearing worn-out brown robes covered with animal furs and straw hats.
"Yu Zhan... You broke the pact?" One of the silhouettes spoke with a hoarse tone. Immense pressure crashed on Yu Zhan and Yu Long.
Yu Zhan's face paled as he raised his hands guiltily.
'Well, they would definitely break my arms.' Yu Zhan thought to himself.
The other silhouette nudged and pointed at Yu Long, "Honey, that boy is..."
"Stand back, Nannan." The first silhouette stepped forward.
"I have to break this bastard's bones first."
"Ayaya..." The other silhouette helplessly patted a straw hat on its head.
The atmosphere changed dramatically as a ripple appeared on the river.
BAM!
Just as the mysterious person was about to touch Yu Zhan, Yu Long caught his hand.
"Who are you?" The mysterious person questioned coldly.
Yu Long's golden eyes shone dimly, "That should be my question."
BAM!
Yu Long kicked the ground and drove the mysterious figure away. After a few kilometers away, they crashed into the mountaintop.
"Hand of Darkness!"
Several hands made of darkness appeared and attacked Yu Long.
Yu Long waved his hand casually, sending a massive sword made of profound energy.
BOOM!
The mysterious man was launched a few meters away, leaving two straight lines on the ground.
"Not bad..." He commented. There is a hint of surprise in his words.
Yu Long placed his hands into his pants pockets and said, "You're bold to attack my father in broad daylight."
"Your Father?" The mysterious man was confused.
"That clumsy bastard is your father?"
"There is no way..."
Yu Long smirked and provoked, "Then, why don't you come here and test me."
