Chapter 943: Chapter 325: Return and the Mu Wuxia Murder Case [10,000 Words]
"Your Highness, could you help me put this on?" Zhao Yanran’s gaze fell on Mu Rufeng’s face.
Mu Rufeng and Zhao Yanran exchanged a glance, something stirred in his heart, and then he reached out, took the bracelet, and put it on for Zhao Yanran.
He hadn’t expected that the Heavenly Jade Bracelet was actually real.
"It’s really beautiful, thank you for the gift, I really like it. Send me to your world, please." Zhao Yanran gently stroked the Heavenly Jade Bracelet on her right hand.
"Take this, when you get to the real world, if this phone rings, just press the green icon and slide upwards." Mu Rufeng said as he handed his phone to Zhao Yanran.
"Okay." Zhao Yanran didn’t ask further, she took the phone, nodded in agreement.
Immediately, Mu Rufeng made his move, it was gentle, yet it did not lessen the damage.
A flash of light appeared, and Zhao Yanran’s figure vanished from there.
When Zhao Yanran disappeared, a notification sound appeared in Mu Rufeng’s mind.
[Congratulations to the player for completing the special hidden task: Mu Chengqian’s Wish]
[Return countdown 179, 178, 177, 176... PS: Return is also possible immediately.]
Mu Rufeng looked around, the treasure vault was already empty, this only Pure Land would soon dissipate.
"Return immediately!" Mu Rufeng silently said, and his body instantly disappeared.
After Mu Rufeng disappeared, the array patterns in the treasure vault suddenly became ineffective, and then a large amount of ghost qi surged in, instantly occupying the entire vault.
...
When Mu Rufeng came to his senses, he found himself back in his home in Changsha Wan District.
"Finally back, it’s almost been five months." Mu Rufeng looked around, feeling more at ease in his own home.
Mu Rufeng didn’t check how much time had passed, nor did he settle any rewards, because there was really no time now.
He immediately went to his bedroom, where he took out an old phone, the Dai Mi 6.
Although he had a new phone, he had kept this old phone all along.
Also, there was a secondary card inside, which could be used for calls.
But, the Dai Mi 6 had not been used for a long time and it was already out of battery.
Mu Rufeng didn’t bother to wait for charging, he simply extended his finger toward the charging port, and then a flash of electricity filled the Dai Mi 6.
The charging speed was fast, but the battery was essentially destroyed, though it was enough for Mu Rufeng to make a call.
Mu Rufeng opened the phonebook and immediately dialed his own number.
The number rang two or three times before it was connected.
"Yanran? Yanran, can you hear me? It’s me, I’m Mu Rufeng."
"I hear, I hear, what is this thing, why can it project your voice?" Zhao Yanran was quite amazed.
The information Mu Rufeng passed to them about the real world was rather basic, just a brief introduction.
Things like appliances and tech products weren’t really covered.
"This is called a phone, it allows real-time contact within miles, but let’s not talk about that now. Where are you? I’ll come to find you." Mu Rufeng said.
...
Somewhere in a modern urban square.
Zhao Yanran, wearing ancient attire and with a veil on her face, exuded a transcendent quality and tall figure, catching the eye of every passerby.
Many even took out their phones to take pictures of Zhao Yanran.
But no one stepped forward to chat, not for any other reason, simply because Zhao Yanran’s aura was too overwhelming, making others too timid to approach.
"Uh...I don’t know where this is, there are so many tall buildings around, and so many people are looking at me." Zhao Yanran said softly into her phone.
To prevent herself from appearing strange, Zhao Yanran used Qi Blood Power to conjure a hand, making herself less conspicuous.
"Are there any distinctive buildings, or names and road signs, can you recognize simplified characters? I see the Heavenly Dao Continent uses traditional characters." Mu Rufeng’s voice came through the phone.
"Though it’s a bit different, it shouldn’t be too wrong. In front of me, there’s a building with Wanda Square written on it, and something about Deep City Dragon...something?" Zhao Yanran replied.
"I know where that is, wait for me, I’m on my way...bang!"
Before Mu Rufeng could finish his sentence, his phone’s battery exploded.
There was nothing he could do; he had charged it too recklessly before, being able to make a call this long was already quite lucky.
The next moment, Mu Rufeng vanished from his spot.
He then appeared outside, soared into the sky, and a cloud formed beneath his feet, swiftly heading towards Deep City.
Changsha was only about eight hundred kilometers away from Deep City’s Longgang, with his speed, he would reach very quickly.
...
Seeing that the phone’s screen was off and that Mu Rufeng’s voice was gone, Zhao Yanran prepared to put away the phone.
Soon after, the phone rang again.
Seeing the caller ID, Zhao Yanran was a bit bewildered.
"Ye Lin? Is this the Ye Lin who is the New Army Commander?" Zhao Yanran swiped upwards on the green icon as Mu Rufeng had taught her.
The call connected.
"Oh Minister Mu, you finally answered. A lot of people have come over from the instance. Do you know what’s going on?"
"They said your name directly, so please come over quickly." As soon as the call connected, Ye Lin’s slightly anxious voice came through.
"Commander Wang? I am Zhao Yanran, His Highness is not here." Hearing Ye Lin’s voice, Zhao Yanran instantly confirmed that Ye Lin was indeed the New Army Commander.
