Chapter 414 One Hundred Years of Solitude

Lin Luoran doesn’t know how she leaves Mount Qingcheng.

She is so muddled that she can’t even hear the consolation of fire phoenix and White Fairy. She is walking aimlessly in the relic of Rong City. The once beautiful square is full of cracks and pits. The statue of a great men has collapsed and the electronic crystal screens have long been broken into mosaics.

Has the whole Huaxia become a relic?

A yellowed and torn newspaper is blown up. The entire street is empty and even all kinds of monsters are scared away by Lin Luoran.

The newspaper rises up and drifts to her. Lin Luoran freezes and then reaches out to catch it.

The front page news is a photo of a beautiful female anchor with a starry sky as the background. The t.i.tle creates a sensation.

“An Unprecedented Dialogue Between Aliens and Earth in 2051”

2051? Lin Luoran’s pupils shrink. She remembers she left the Bohai Sea Bay in the new year of 2019. Did she actually delay for thirty years in Mount Penglai?

Her mother was almost sixty years old when she left… There is suddenly some hope in Lin Luoran’s eyes. The age of ninety… Supported by Lins’ elixirs and spirit herbs, it’s possible for Mrs. Lin to live without illness and disease until ninety years old.

She selectively forgets about the timeliness of newspapers—if now it is 2051, how can it become yellow and brittle? Rong City will never become how it is now in just a few days.

However, the drowning man has grabbed the life-saving straw. How can he think carefully? Lin Luoran gets a little energy, remembering that the Lin family has the last base. She flies on her sword towards Dongting.

Before seeing Mount Jun, she has seen the green willows by Dongting Lake.

Although the entire city is surrounded by towering walls, many people armed with weapons are patrolling upon walls. Along the Dongting Lake, there are a lot of people. Lin Luoran is very happy to see this. She sees living human beings! Lin Luoran almost weeps with joy and she lands on Mount Jun. The strange thing is that there are no tourists on Mount Jun. It almost just maintains how it was. In front of Liu Yi Well, there is a new painted sculpture exactly like her and the clothes look like dancing.

The three words “Mortal Heart Fairy” are vigorous. At first glance, she knows it must be a calligrapher who writes it.

Who built the statue for her? Lin Luoran feels so strange but she notices that the water emerging from Liu Yi Well is extremely clear. It proves that the Dongting Lake waters are not as polluted as the Bohai Sea. Lin Luoran is more confident about her family living in the Dragon Palace.

Without the support from Lins’ Pharmaceutical Factory, the purification works of the waters of Dongting would not be so well.

Looking at the green willows by the lake, Lin Luoran now even has a faint smile.

She has handed the Dragon Palace gold stamp to Yuan Ye long ago. At this moment, it seems to be a decision which cannot be more correct. No matter what happened to Huaxia or the Earth, as long as Lins have hidden in the Dragon Palace, they will be safe.

Lin Luoran walks into the water airily, thinking about how she can surprise her family. As for Mrs. Lin who may have been old, she doesn’t feel very worried about it.

She must shape the best Taoist root for her mother which can even make her catch up later as an old man. Beginning cultivation at ninety years old, so what? There is always a solution!

With a golden light, Lin Luoran disappears.

The golden inner palace of the Dragon Palace appears in front of her. Lin Luoran says nervously, “I’m back.”

I’m back—I’m back—the voice echoes in the empty hall. Lin Luoran is nervous about leaving here for three decades. The Lin family must be very worried. She is a little antic.i.p.ated and also a little worried.

Even the youngest Cui Wanlu is forty years old now. She is very talented and her single Taoist root of Water can always help her advance quickly. Now she may look like in her early twenties. It’s just that Lin Luoran doesn’t know if she is as stubborn and cunning as a child.

Lin Luoran waits for a long time but her families don’t come out. She doesn’t feel so optimistic anymore.

Maybe they are in the Treasury of the Dragon Palace.

In this case, it common that they can’t hear her voice. Lin Luoran walks slowly to the Dragon Palace garden. There is a sound from the huge fish pond. The group of lobsters and koi fish are really great. The leading golden big carp has been already full of Reiki and become very wise.

It is staring at her with big fish eyes. After thinking very hard, it becomes intimate with her. Lin Luoran knows this golden fish recognizes her and she is a little happy. She throws down a few peaches, making some fishes crazy.

They look like hungry ghosts which haven’t eaten anything in hundreds of years. Lin Luoran feels a little relaxed and enters the Treasury with a smile.

Because the golden fish diverts her attention, Lin Luoran does not realize that although there are many exotic plants in the Dragon Palace, the garden is kind of abandoned.

—It looks like there hasn’t been anyone living here for a long time.

…

“I am back.”

Lin Luoran suppresses the uneasiness in her heart and walks through several palaces step by step. The voice is drifting and there is still no one of the Lin family in the Palace of Jiuhua.

Lin Luoran walks slower and slower and she feels more and more desperate.

The way to the Palace of the Void takes a thousand years. Lin Luoran holds her breath and there is still no one here.

No one is here. Well, it’s nothing. Maybe they are all out.

The whole Lin family will not go out together. As a member of the family, Lin Luoran knows how cautious Lins are. More importantly, there is no trace of human life here.

Without pots, pans, beds, clothes… the Lin family can not live like a Bearing Essence cultivator who can survive even without food. If they are in the Dragon Palace, there must be traces of fire.

After Lin Luoran finds a few lines of words in the corner of the hall, she is devastated.

“Grandmaster, when will you come back? Lucy misses you so much and everyone misses you… What should I do? I think I can’t hold on anymore.”

It was signed by Lucy in 20… 58.

2058 is seven years after the year when the yellowed newspaper she saw in Rong City square was published.

Did the Lin family stay in the Dragon Palace in 2058? Why did Lucy say that she could not hold on? What was threatening the safety of the Lin family? This is Dragon Palace. How can outsiders find it?

Lin Luoran has too many questions in her mind. She wants to find answers. She stumbles to the side palace where the food was originally stored.

Thousands of pounds of rice are piled up in the corners and there is no dust on it.

It’s not the problem of food. Then what was trapping the Lin family?

Lin Luoran feels helpless and her heart is filled with sorrow.

2058… almost forty years… is Mrs. Lin, the only ordinary person in the Lin family, still alive? Moreover, it is more than forty years.

Lin Luoran uses her spiritual power and flashes out of the Dongting Dragon Palace. A strong man on the lake sh.o.r.e is flirting with another girl and Lin Luoran catches him suddenly.

The face in front of him is so beautiful that the man is totally distracted. The beautiful woman says clearly.

“Look into my eyes.”

How beautiful these eyes are! They are like beautiful stars and the man feels that there is a whirlpool hidden inside to suck in people’s soul.

“Soul-Searching!”

White Fairy comes out from the Soul Stone in s.p.a.ce, “Lin Luoran, calm down! Don’t use the Soul-Search Spell easily. Look at how you are! It will definitely backfire! ”

Lin Luoran cannot hear White Fairy’s warning anymore. She only sees that the man is dull and she wants to ask him something. The young girl next to him who has been ignored for a long time suddenly exclaims.

“Ah! you… you, you are Mortal Heart Fairy!”

Madness in Lin Luoran’s heart is extinguished by this delicate voice. As soon as she is sober, she realizes what she is doing.

After someone calls her Taoist name, Lin Luoran finally realizes that driven by impulse, she actually tries to use the Soul-Search Spell on ordinary people. She is so ashamed that she unnaturally let go of the man.

The young girl totally neglects how unnatural the man is. Her cheeks are flushed and she can’t hide the excitement in her mind. She repeatedly confirms it, “Are you really Mortal Heart Fairy?”Read latest chapters at L istnovel

Lin Luoran nods, “I can’t say I am a fairy but my Taoist name is Mortal Heart.”

The young girl hears it and feels so excited and unspeakable. After a while, she even cries.

The man is getting sober and he also recognizes Lin Luoran in a blink of an eye.

Lin Luoran feels confused about this excited couple. She remembers that she doesn’t know them at all. How can they be so exciting?

When the girl finishes her crying, Lin Luoran finally says.

“Can I ask you a question?”

The girl nods, staring at her eagerly.

She probably will never forget this day. Beside the Dongting Lake, she meets Mortal Heart Fairy who has been disappeared for many years. The fairy is truly extraordinary. The most important thing is that as her believers say, fairy will never abandon her men.

The voice of this beautiful and extraordinary fairy is a bit dry, “I want to know… what year it is now.”

What year is it now? The little girl is startled but she soon thinks that fairy lives in paradise so she asks this question. She smiles and answers certainly.

“Today is July 8, 301 of the new calendar … For the old Gregorian calendar, it is the year of 2330.”
