Volume 1: Life is Like First Love Chapter 165: Prologue

  Time flies, and it's been a month already.

  This secret place under the Hanyang Castle, a month ago, became ancient, and since then it is no longer a secret, allowing people to come and go freely without encountering any restrictions.

  The secret that had shrouded Handan City for many years has disappeared.

  Apart from the leader of the three departments and a limited number of clansmen, few people know what great changes took place here a month ago. They only knew that on a deep night a month ago, a shocking thunderous roar echoed, and a figure flew out of the abyss below Hanyang City. Behind this figure was a huge ghostly creature roaring in pursuit.

  At the same time, as this figure flew out, one person rushed out from each of the Andong Department and Puqiang Department to intercept him in a fierce battle.

  This battle didn't last long, and in the end, the figure died, beheaded.

  Outsiders do not know who this figure is, but the three department heads know that this person is Hanyang Old Ancestor... The death of Hanyang Old Ancestor made the three departments no longer belong to the slave tribe, and they got the freedom they had longed for, so they didn't have to keep their tribes in Hanyang forever, and they had a broader development.

  Yan Chi Department obtained all the relics in the giant object of Hanyang Old Ancestor's Sword Ship. As for these things, Tian Han Sect did not ask for them, and the red-robed old man only took away this sword ship and left with his men.

  Yan Chi Department was even more able to make great achievements because they had grasped the four-layer space transmission method. Faced with the silent Andon and Puqiang, Yan Chi Department chose to relocate. They voluntarily gave up control of Handan City, issued a notice, dispersed all guest families, and would use one year's time to leave the entire department.

  Apart from this, the original hidden place under Hanyang City, all the medicinal herbs there were sent to Pu Qian and An Dong by Yan Chi Department. They didn't take too much away, leaving more than half behind, in order to ease their relationship. After all, the entanglement of the three departments for hundreds of years had formed a certain degree of alliance. If it collapsed because of this, it would be a loss.

  When the people of Hanyang City learned about this news, they came to this originally secret place with curiosity about the mysterious, and some of them really found some herbs and creations, but the vast majority of visitors returned empty-handed.

  However, being able to come to this mysterious place of the past and take a look at the place that has been left in Handan Mountain for hundreds of years is also satisfying some of the mystery of this land for these outsiders who have arrived.

  This place, once a mysterious land, has welcomed an unprecedented number of people this month. A large number of barbarians from Handan City have come here, making this place gradually lose its mystery.

  As the Yan clan dispersed the guests, since there was no longer any longing, the Pu clan also followed suit and dispersed the guests. They no longer needed the help of the guests.

  Andong also followed suit, and the dispersal of the guest family caused the three departments to recover their closure, which also changed some of the layout of Handan City and brought about changes.

  But all these changes became insignificant with the arrival of the grand event of Tian Han's once-in-a-lifetime recruitment of disciples.

  The entire city of Handan was once again bustling with excitement, and among the outsiders who came to this place, the only topic of discussion was the matter of Tian Han's sect recruiting disciples.

  Being able to join the Tianhan Sect or the Haidong Sect is almost the desire of all barbarians in the Nan Chen mainland, and for those who come to Handan City, their choice is the Tianhan Sect.

  Tian Han's sect is very strict in accepting disciples, with its own special system. For example, in the city of Handan, if one is not from the three departments, they must pass through the Handan chain to prove their qualifications.

  But this is just a qualification, and whether it can be collected is not necessarily certain.

  At the same time, in this month, there was a name that spread from a small range to become a topic of discussion within the walls of Handan City. This name was spoken by Nan Tian, acknowledged by Xuan Lun's silence, sought after by Yan Chi's humble son, and gradually became known throughout Handan City, with almost no one unaware of it.

  This name is called Mo Su!

  In the midst of these discussions, the people of Handan City gradually became familiar with this name from unfamiliarity, and from familiarity, they felt the strength and mystery of this person.

  He is a new guest of Antong Department, with unpredictable cultivation. Yan Chi Department's Yan Guang died at his hands, but Yan Chi Department did not pursue the matter.

  An Dong sent away all the guests, but left only one person's name, this person, is precisely the mysterious Mo Su!

  It is rumored that this person's cultivation has already opened the dust, and in a secret place on Mount Huan a month ago, he sat with Nan Tianping, shocking the mysterious wheel at the same time, and had a battle with Han Feizi.

  The battle had no result, but after Han Feizi returned to Yan Chi's department, he began to frequently look for this person, and some clues can be seen.

  For any dust opener's appearance in Handan City, it will cause a stir. Except for the three departments, there are only five dust openers in Handan City, including Xuan Lun and Nan Tian, as well as Ke Ji Si from Yan Chi Department.

  As for the other two, they simply didn't join any tribe and came to Handan City with a very clear purpose - they wanted to enter the Tiān Hán Zōng.

  These five people are like the sun in the sky of Handan City. Anyone who joins the tribe can become the chief guest.

  Now, the sixth opener has appeared, making the name Mo Su a topic of increasing discussion within Handan City. The reason for this is largely due to the fact that he has yet to make an appearance.

  It seems that the mystery surrounding Mo Su has not diminished, but rather increased, and people only know that he wears a black robe, with his most distinctive feature being the black mask he wears.

  No one knows what his face looks like under the mask.

  Even Nantian once said a sentence in this month, which was said accidentally.

  "Mozu is better than me, Xuanlun is not as good as him, and all the dust-openers in Handan City are not as good as him!" At first, it didn't matter what this sentence meant, but after it was spoken, because of Xuanlun's silent consent, and Kejiusi nodded his head, it caused a sensation in Handan City.

  This mysterious sixth strong man of Hanyang is the most talked about person in Hanyang City during this period, except for the recruitment of disciples by the Tiandong Sect.

  Perhaps because of this obviously manipulated rumor, the entire city of Handan was watching every person around them, subconsciously searching for that mysterious Mo Su.

  "I've already done as you requested and pushed him to the forefront, although I don't know what you mean." In a secret room on Mount Yan Chi, Han Fei Zi sat cross-legged in silence. In front of her was a middle-aged man with a warm expression, wearing a green robe, who looked at Han Fei Zi and smiled lightly before speaking.

  "Thank you, Master Jiuxi." Han Feizi spoke calmly.

  "No harm done. I'm actually quite curious, does this person really have such great abilities? Not only are you looking for him, but even Anton is cooperating and stirring up a commotion to find this person."

  "It's fortunate that the Pu family has dispersed their guests and closed off their household, cutting off all contact with the outside world. Otherwise, if they were to get involved as well, I would be even more astonished by this Mo Su." The middle-aged man smiled slightly.

  Han Feizi remained silent and didn't utter a word for a long time. The middle-aged man let out a hoarse laugh, stood up, and took his leave.

  It wasn't until half a while after he left that Han Fei's eyes revealed an unusual glint, and she muttered to herself: "Mo Su, I don't believe you're dead. You still owe me a promise!"

  Andong Department, also in search of Su Ming, under the insistence of Andong's clan leader and his sister Hanshangzi, the entire Andong Department was mobilized to conduct a large-scale search, which also included the once-hidden place where Su Ming went missing, Mount Huan.

  But a month has passed and so far no one has found Su Ming. The name Mo Su is also becoming increasingly mysterious in the city of Yun Hai.

  At the foot of Mount Huan, a deep abyss of ten thousand feet, at this moment, in these valleys on the ground, human shadows can often be seen flashing by. On this vast land, there is a valley, and in this month, many people have passed through it to explore, but no one knows that in this valley, an extraordinary cave still exists.

  This cave is impossible for outsiders to discover.

  At this moment, in this cave, there is a murmuring sound echoing.

  "Who am I..."

  Su Ming sat there with his legs crossed, his eyes open, and many blood vessels visible in them, revealing a dazed and empty expression. He had forgotten the passage of time and where he was, lost in thought over this one question that had no answer.

  The cave wasn't pitch black, and over the past month, it had gradually been filled with a red glow. This red light came from Su Ming's body, where numerous blood veins were flashing rapidly on his skin, increasing in number.

  The block of wild bone in his body, as it melted, the majestic blood and gas were absorbed and transported, causing Su Ming's bloodline to reach 926 lines now!

  The bloodline was still increasing, but Su Ming didn't notice it, his whole heart and soul were immersed in a kind of contemplation, this was the first time in his memory that he had thought about his fate, thinking about himself... who he was.

  This month, he was dazed and confused, as if he had lost himself. In this state of contemplation, his breath underwent a change, a subtle transformation that was difficult to detect but truly existed, just like the enlightenment and metamorphosis he experienced after walking down that red road.

  People rarely go in search of who they are, and often naturally say things like "I am what I am", but this is an unthoughtful and false affirmation that even he himself does not know.

  "If I am myself, then who am I..." Su Ming muttered to himself, he couldn't understand, he wanted to know the answer.

  This answer is obscure, perhaps no one will tell him what it is. At this moment, Su Ming is like the only one who opens his eyes when everyone else closes them, and he struggles to open a narrow slit that may close at any time. It's as if he's crawling out of a deep pit, and when he's about to fall back in, he raises his head to take a glimpse of the world outside the pit.

  He didn't know what he saw, but struggled to get a clear look. Amidst the blur, a sentence from the beast skin book his grandfather gave him appeared in his mind, a phrase left by someone unknown, and also the one he understood the least.

  "The world I see... you can't see."
