“D-Damn it, what is happening now?!”
Mu Fan cried out as he saw his fingers fading away.
Li Shen looked over at him and then down at his own hand to see his fingers were fading away as well, and at a rapid pace at that.
Li Shen then looked towards the sky to see that after shattering, what was revealed was a clear blue sky.
The shattered fragments of the previous crimson sky were still hovering in the air, reflecting the blue sky above and the Fiery Dimension below at the same time.
Looking away from this scene, Li Shen bent down to pick up Lu Yue and carry her bridal style. He then turned to Mu Fan and said.
“It’s okay, we’re being teleported to the Hidden Fragmented Realm. Hold onto me.”
Mu Fan hurriedly got up and place his overly large palms on Li Shen’s shoulders.
Mu Fan then watched in curiosity as a strange black light with starry light in it spread from Li Shen’s body to cover both him and Lu Yue.
“What kind of ability is this?”
Mu Fan said looking around. It almost seemed as if he was inside a small universe, one that was in its early stages of development.
“You have you’re Blade Domain right? This is my Domain.”
“A Domain? I’ve never heard of a Domain like this, what is it called?”
“It’s a Domain from my Physique, and it currently doesn’t have a name.”
“Then let me name it! How about Star Domain?”
Li Shen smiled at that.
“Okay, let’s go with that.”
Within just a few seconds, Li Shen, Lu Yue, and Mu Fan’s body were already about to fade away completely.
Li Shen looked down at his body to see that this type of teleportation was ignoring his Star Domain. But he had released it so the teleportation wouldn’t separate them.
As Li Shen was observing the teleportation process, Mu Fan who was looking at the clear blue sky that the shattered fragments reveal, suddenly asked with confusion.
“Is that the sky of the Hidden Fragmented Realm?”
“Yeah, it probably is.”
“How could that be? Didn’t all the descriptions say it was called the Hidden Fragmented Realm because the Realm itself, along with the laws within it was fragmented? That sky looks too ordinary for a Realm to be described like that.”
“Yeah, I know. Something isn’t right.”
Li Shen said as he looked up at the clear blue sky.
Soon, his figure along with Lu Yue and Mu Fan faded away completely.
….
…
..
The group suddenly arrived at their unknown destination in a split second.
“Where are we?”
Mu Fan asked as he looked around at all the disciples.
Li Shen retrieved his Star Domain and looked around as well.
One disciple after another was being teleported here.
As for where ‘here’ was, it was an extremely large hall that looked like it was decorated to accommodate a greedy tyrant.
Li Shen carefully placed Lu Yue on the ground while Mu Fan went on high alert. Something about this place made him feel extremely uneasy.
‘Tai, are you here?’
‘Yes, Master, I’m here with Fei Yin.’
‘Okay, find and gather everyone. You know where I am.’
Li Shen couldn't see it, but he bet Tai had a huge grin on his face.
“Okay!”
A sudden yell was heard echoing out from way across the hall. It even overpower the cacophony of noises the panicked and confused disciples were making.
Li Shen snickered when he heard it.
That was actually Tai’s voice.
Mu Fan blinked when he heard it too. He then turned in that direction and after a few minutes, he saw Tai and everyone approaching with hurried steps.
Lihua, Fang Chen, Fei Yin, Yang Su, and Jun following Tai. And behind them were Lu Shin, Fuangu, Mao Wen, and Yuwei.
“Master!”
Tai yelled as he run towards Li Shen.
Li Shen smiled, ready to be tackled by Tai, but someone suddenly appeared between them and caused Tai to bump into their back. I think you should take a look at
“Master…?”
After appearing in front of Li Shen, Yang Su looked at his unfamiliar face as if he wanted to confirm he truly regained his memories.
“It’s me, Yang Su.”
After getting confirmation, Yang Su scrunched up his face.
But it wasn’t due to anything other than he wanted to stop the tears that suddenly well up in his eyes.
Unable to hold back his tears, Yang Su lowered his head and hurriedly wiped his eyes with his sleeve.
Li Shen brought Yang Su into a hug and whispered.
“I’m sorry, I’m really sorry Yang Su. As your Master, I left you to fend for yourself, but I promise that won’t happen again. I promise if you ever need help in the future I’ll be the first one to help you. I promise you that with all the love I have for you in my heart.”
Yang Su was unable to hold back his emotions and he openly wailed while hugging Li Shen as if he was about to leave again.
All of the doubts he had of Li Shen, of what that old man had said to him on the ship, all of it was completely washed away at this moment.
Even if Li Shen had used him, Yang Su didn’t care. He really didn’t care so long as Li Shen didn’t leave or stop being his Master.
While Yang Su sobbed in his chest, Li Shen looked over at Jun and the others who were either turning their heads away or wiping their faces.
“Why are you guys just standing there? I got more space for more hugs.”
Li Shen smiled and lifted his hand as he said this.
Jun and Tai were the first to step forward and buried their heads in Li Shen’s armpit.
Lihua came up behind Jun and joined the hug.
Fei Yin went to step forward next, but he suddenly turned to Fang Chen who was looking away with crossed arms.
“Brother Chen, are you coming?”
“I’m... I'm fine.... *sniffle*”
Fei Yin smiled. Fang Chen was barely able to say those words. If he said anymore his stoic facade might just crumble.
“Let’s go.”
Fei Yin grabbed Fang Chen by the collar and the two joined the group hug.
Lu Shin rolled his eyes before he beeline for his sister to check up on her.
Meanwhile, Mao Wen, Fuangu, and Yuwei watched by the side with smiles on their faces.
Li Shen looked at everyone and said.
“I’m not going anywhere, if I do I’ll bring you guys with me, okay?”
Everyone nodded their heads simultaneously.
Every either feeling relief, happiness, or both, however, that was ruined as a shadow suddenly loomed over them.
Sol glanced up to see Mu Fan standing over them with a broad grin on his face.
"You guys are leaving me out!"
He said heartily before releasing a loud laugh. With his monstrously large reach, he extended his hands to grab everyone and raised them off the ground.
Mu Fan then squeezed, which was extremely scary.
“Ah! Damn it, Mu Fan you're going to crush Lihua!”
Jun cried out, followed by everyone else.
“Mu Fan, stop, let go.”
“Mu Fan, stop sneezing damn it.”
“Ah, it feels like my rib cage is about burst.”
Li Shen was relatively fine, but he glare at Mu Fan.
“Idiot, know your strength, put us down.”
“Haha! I’m just hugging you all. You don’t want me to hug you?”
Mu Fan suddenly increased the strength of his huge, and everyone started to curse him.
“Hm?”
Mu Fan who was enjoying this situation was grinning to himself, but he suddenly froze when and looked to Li Shen’s left, with a stupefied expression.
“Wah-When did this bastard get here?”
Li Shen frowned and followed Mu Fan’s gaze to his right. Immediately, he came face to face with Xian who was squashed up against him.
“Hi there, can I join you guys?”
Li Shen mirrored Mu Fan's expression as he stared at Xian.
