Chapter 1019: Meeting You Is His Life’s Greatest Blessing
Even if Lu Guantian did say she is the only one who can save Zirong, being able to save and definitely being able to save are fundamentally two different things. What Lu Guankong meant by saving must have been in the sense of possibility. If it were an ordinary girl, who would risk the life of their beloved for just a possibility.The reason Yu Qingwan did so was ultimately because she loved Zirong too deeply, willing to make such a decisive decision for the sake of Zirong’s heart of a warrior.
Han Yan saw the determination in her eyes and knew that if she ultimately couldn’t save Zirong, the most painful person wouldn’t be anyone else, but Yu Qingwan right in front of her, who would surely choose to live and die alongside Zirong.
"Zirong is lucky to have met you," Han Yan couldn’t help but hold Yu Qingwan’s hand and said sincerely.
No wonder Zirong would be so deeply in love with Yu Qingwan; no wonder his temperament would become so eccentric and violent after Yu Qingwan’s accident in the past life.
Although there’s no way to verify what disasters Zirong and Yu Qingwan actually experienced in their past lives, Han Yan was certain of one thing — Yu Qingwan must have suffered misfortune in her past life, which is why Zirong was left wandering the world alone, infamous for his ruthless slaughter.
"Actually, meeting you all is his greatest luck. Previously, Zirong had no friends at all," Yu Qingwan wiped the tears from the corners of her eyes and smiled faintly, speaking with a look of comfort.
"Sister Qingwan, although I don’t know why Senior Lu values me so much, I promise you, I will do my best to help Zirong resolve the danger of those Devil Eyes," Han Yan solemnly promised Yu Qingwan.
"I believe you. Even without Senior Lu’s words, I trust Zirong’s judgment. Anyone he calls a friend won’t disappoint me," Yu Qingwan held Han Yan’s hand tightly and said.
The two held hands tightly, both feeling a mutual appreciation as if they had met too late.
"By the way, I haven’t finished what I was saying earlier — Senior Lu also said, if things turn out as he expected and in the end Zirong and I can’t escape this disaster, he asked me to hand this item over to you," Yu Qingwan recalled something and took out a scroll to give to Han Yan.
"What is this?" Han Yan received it seriously. Toward the enigmatic Lu Guankong, Han Yan felt increasingly mysterious and grew more curious.
Vaguely, Han Yan felt some invisible threads surrounding her, linking people and things that should have had no connection to her. Yet, these threads were tangled like a mess, elusive and difficult to sort out. It seems the knots of these threads were grasped in Lu Guankong’s hands.
"I’m not very sure either. According to Senior Lu, this item originally belonged to Zirong’s family as an heirloom, said to hide some secret. However, the Zi Family went through numerous hardships, and no one knows when this item was lost.
When he went to the Zi Family, he just happened to acquire this item, intending to restore it to the Zi Family and ask Zirong’s father to unlock its secrets to clear his doubts. Sadly, the Zi Family faced endless disasters, with many things losing their inheritance, and Zirong’s father did not know what the secret was.
Since Senior Lu performed a strange technique to save Zirong, he gave this item to Senior Lu. Senior Lu said it might help you and asked me to hand it over to you," Yu Qingwan replied, evidently confused about the matter.
Hearing her say this, Han Yan dared not underestimate the scroll. The last time at the Sword Heart Soul Cleansing Pond, she was already surprised too much; this time, what could it be?
Could it be some ancient relic or a secret manual?
Han Yan examined it closely; the scroll was very old, showing signs of cracks and wear everywhere, even the engraved patterns at the ends were almost worn out.
Carefully discerning the shallow engravings, Han Yan was astonished. Although an irresponsible Chamber of Commerce owner, she’s stayed at Nanyan Commerce for a while and developed some appreciation for antiques.
The patterns here clearly utilized the carving techniques from tens of thousands of years ago. If this scroll is not a counterfeit, then it’s an ancient object with at least tens of thousand years of history, preserved until today unknown how.
Cautiously opening the scroll, Han Yan sensed the presence of a seal, and suddenly realized it was because of this seal’s protection that the scroll continued to exist until today.
From the trip at Flying Peak, Han Yan’s understanding of seals had deepened greatly. Just by slightly sensing it, she could tell this seal is not ordinary, its technique is extremely ingenious, able to continuously gather Heaven and Earth Power to maintain the scroll without requiring a strong practitioner’s support.
Recognizing this, Han Yan was even more certain it’s not a fake, proceeding more carefully. Regardless of what secret the scroll held, simply its tens of thousands, even more years of history, simply that seal, made the scroll a priceless antique.
At the thought of money, Lady Mu’s eyes habitually sparkled with little shining stars of gold.
Finally, Han Yan fully opened the scroll.
Her gaze gradually turned surprised, then puzzled, and then... the golden gleaming stars in her eyes suddenly became dazzling, filled with a look of ecstatic joy.
On the scroll wasn’t any relic treasure, nor any Cultivation Technique secret manual, just a vast starry sky, yet in Han Yan’s eyes, this sky was far more precious than any relic treasure or Cultivation Technique secret manual — it was practically invaluable.
That starry sky wasn’t the common vast starry sky of the Holy Court Continent; it was broader, vaster, and deeper. Yet oddly, each star was so clear as if it was right in front of her.
Of course, that’s not the important part. The important thing is the Star Map presented in Han Yan’s heart’s mysterious star plate, the Star Map presented in Mu Tianlie’s Heavenly Destiny Star Plate, as well as the Star Map on the so-called Star Mechanism Plate given to her by Shen Moce, Ji Gaoxian, and others, were all contained within.
Even the billions of stars Han Yan saw entering the strange space in the Mysterious Star Plate were included in this scroll.
Han Yan had long known her star plate wasn’t complete. Even after acquiring star plates from Mu Tianlie and Shen Moce, her heart’s mysterious star plate slowly restored but remained incomplete. Han Yan had always wondered how many segments the star plate was broken into, and if, one day, it could be fully restored, what utility it might serve.
Han Yan had always thought the Star Chart was too vast, fearing she would spend her lifetime unable to find its other fragments, making its complete restoration impossible, imagining its future uses only futile indulgence.
However, now seeing the Star Map in this scroll, Han Yan realized — maybe things weren’t as difficult as she imagined.
