Chapter 214 Eric Yun's High Hopes



"I'm afraid you don't have a choice!" Tan Ailing smiled, "Haven't you noticed? Nearly a hundred journalists from around the world have come to attend the Sakya Living Buddha's succession ceremony. The 'miracle' you performed has already been recorded by their cameras and cameras. Although there is a distance between you and them, in front of modern recording equipment, this distance does not exist at all, and your appearance should have been recorded clearly by them..."

"Don't worry!" Eric smiled confidently, "Those journalists will never broadcast my appearance!"

"You..." Tan Ailing hesitated and asked, "Are you thinking of sending someone to forcibly delete the recordings of those journalists?"

"You're overthinking it. There's no way I would do that!" Eric chuckled and pecked Tan Ailing on the cheek, saying, "I just cast a 'blur spell' on my face, so others can't see my features!"

"A blur spell?" Tan Ailing looked at Eric's face and asked, puzzled, "But I've been with you all this time and haven't noticed your face blurring at all?"

"Hehe, this blur spell isn't for human eyes, it's specifically aimed at recording devices!"

"Wow, there's a magic spell that targets recording devices?" Tan Ailing couldn't help but exclaim in amazement, "Magic is truly amazing..."

"The magic's amazingness is forced out!" Eric explained with emotion, "Ever since the news of the 'most handsome chairman in history' came out last time, have our troubles lessened? Every time I go out, I get recognized, which is extremely annoying! To avoid similar situations in the future, I painstakingly researched and developed this application technique for magic..."

Listening to Eric's explanation, Tan Ailing couldn't help but recall the past, and a slight smile appeared at the corner of her mouth.

Just then, Eric and Tan Ailing simultaneously sensed someone approaching rapidly, and the aura of this person was very familiar to both of them. They exchanged a glance and involuntarily thought of the same person.

"Eric, are you okay?" The person in Eric's heart appeared in reality, flying to him from the doorway, grabbing his arm, and asking with concern.

"I'm fine!" Eric shook his head slightly, looking at the newcomer, and said softly, "But you seem to be troubled, don't you?"

Indeed, Tang Feiyan's current appearance was inappropriate. She looked haggard as if she hadn't recovered from a serious illness or had suffered a major blow!

"As long as you're okay!" Tang Feiyan breathed a sigh of relief, sat down next to Eric, and hugged his arm tightly, saying, "Since I received Ailing's call, I haven't been able to sleep, fearing that you would be sad... Now I can finally rest assured!"

Eric was very moved and patted Tang Feiyan's hand, which was clinging to him, silently.

Two days ago, after some enlightenment from Tan Ailing knowing the truth about his life, and being honest with his lover, Eric finally let go of the burden in his heart and returned to normal. Later, Tan Ailing consulted him and said she wanted to inform Tang Feiyan about this matter. Eric also knew Tang Feiyan's temperament and her feelings for him. He understood that if he didn't inform her, there would probably be a strong "aftereffect," so he naturally didn't stop Tan Ailing's actions. Although he knew that once Tang Feiyan learned of this news, she would return to the country immediately, back to his side, he did not expect Tang Feiyan to come so quickly, it was not even forty hours yet...

"Feiyan, why are you so focused on Eric? Are you deliberately ignoring me?" Tan Ailing teased.

Although a pre-heaven master staying awake for several days would not have any adverse effects on the body, Tang Feiyan, who was accustomed to "beauty sleep," couldn't help but feel a little tired unconsciously. She yawned and said to Tan Ailing, "Who dares to ignore you, the 'legal wife'? I have to comfort 'Lord' first... Ah~"

Originally speaking lazily, Tang Feiyan suddenly let out an earth-shattering scream, scaring both Eric and Tan Ailing.n/ô/vel/b//jn dot c//om

"What's wrong?"

Tang Feiyan pointed at Tan Ailing and said, "Ailing, your dress is so beautiful, where did you buy it? I want to buy one too!"

Eric and Tan Ailing looked at each other, both rolling their eyes. Tan Ailing, with a helpless expression, replied, "This wasn't bought, it was specially tailored by the seamstress of Sakya for the succession ceremony of the Buddha's consort..."

Tang Feiyan's eyes lit up and she said, "Do I have one?"

"Well..."

Tang Feiyan's expression dimmed, she shook Eric's hand and said, "Eric, I'm also your Buddha's consort, you can't favor one and neglect the other. You have to let the seamstress make one for me too..."

Looking at Tang Feiyan's haggard and unimpressive delicate face, Eric felt a slight pain in his heart and agreed involuntarily.

Tang Feiyan cheered, kissed Eric's face vigorously, and said regretfully, "It's a pity I came a little late and missed the succession ceremony! Ailing, is Eric doing well?"

"Of course! There's no one more glorious than him..."

Listening to Tan Ailing's narration, Tang Feiyan exclaimed repeatedly, with a look of yearning, envy, and regret. Finally, she sighed, "Eric, your magic is amazing... Ailing said in the phone call that you are more than ten times more powerful in Celestia than on Earth?"

"Yes." Eric was not modest and said truthfully, "The magic elements in Celestia are very rich, more than ten times that of Earth. There, my magic power is almost endless. Except for forbidden spells, other magic can be said to be easily accessible and effortless! But on Earth, a 'Great Restoration Technique' almost depleted my magic power..."

"Ah, I want to go there and see..." Tang Feiyan sighed with longing.

"People without chaotic constitutions can't cross the spacetime channel!" Eric poured cold water on her.

"Is there no other way?" Tang Feiyan wasn't easily discouraged. "Eric, since you're so clever, why not think of a way to establish a spacetime channel that ordinary people can also use? I want to go and see the elves, orcs, and dwarves in Celestia, to see how they differ from those in fantasy novels."

Eric felt very tricky, but under Tang Feiyan's starry-eyed gaze, he could only grit his teeth and say, "Okay, I'll do my best!"

"That's great!" Tang Feiyan kissed Eric again fiercely and asked, "Eric, what are your plans next?"

"What's up?" Eric looked at her and smiled. "It seems like you have something in mind?"

Tang Feiyan said seriously, "Eric, let's go find Mom..."

Tan Ailing also nodded and said, "Yes, Eric, we can't let Mom stay alone in the desert..."

"...Alright, let's go find my mother together!"

Since the decision had been made to search for his mother's remains, some preparations needed to be made, at least to find the exact location where Eric Olivia was "murdered".

There were two pieces of information available for use. One, the place was the most concentrated area of ​​spiritual power on the plateau. The other was Eric's memory. Unfortunately, this "memory" only came from Chebu Zundanba's trace of consciousness, so some details were unclear.

Of course, Eric didn't care about these two clues because he had a more accurate and convenient way to search — the Dark Chronicles!

To have a serene and pure state of mind to perform the Dark Chronicles, Eric hadn't left his lama's bedroom for several days, and visitors were strictly forbidden. Of course, "visitors" here referred to unrelated outsiders. Relatives like Eric Yun were impossible for Eric to refuse!

"Eric, why have you been cooped up here for days without going out?" Eric Yun asked, somewhat puzzled and concerned. "You didn't even go to see off the Seven Masters when they left! Although your status in the Buddhist sect is higher than theirs, they are still seniors, and their influence in the martial arts world far exceeds yours. It's not appropriate for you to be so neglectful..."

"No need to worry, Grandpa," Eric replied calmly. "I have already personally met with these senior monks and explained the reasons for my behavior. I have also obtained their understanding. There's no question of 'neglect'."

Eric Yun felt relieved and then curiously asked, "Eric, what are your reasons? Can you tell me?"

Eric hesitated for a moment, thinking about how to phrase his words. He couldn't tell the truth, as it would greatly upset this old man who had been longing for his daughter for nearly twenty years.

Seeing Eric's silence, Eric Yun thought he had asked about some secret of the Sakya or the Buddhist sect. Concerned that he might be causing his grandson discomfort, he quickly said, "It's okay, I just asked casually. You don't have to..."

Eric smiled faintly, interrupting him, "I just want to move my mother's remains back to the Medicine King Sect."

Upon hearing the word "remains," Eric Yun's face twitched, and he said with a dim look, "Grandpa has been wanting to ask for a long time, how did your parents die?"

"Accident!" Eric raised an eyebrow and said in a deep voice, "Just an accident!"

Eric's expression made Eric Yun, who feared that his grandson would be sad, dare not ask further. He asked, "Does moving Olivia's grave have anything to do with you staying at home?"

Eric said, half-truthfully, "I was too young at the time and have forgotten the place. So, I must settle down and use secret methods to find..."

"You were young?" Eric Yun seemed to understand something, looking at Eric with a hint of sadness. "Eric, those days must have been hard on you!"

Eric didn't want Eric Yun to imagine the "misery of his childhood" in his mind. He changed the subject and asked, "Grandpa, have all the congratulatory guests left?"

Seeing that his grandson didn't want to dwell on sadness, Eric Yun quickly adjusted his mood and nodded, "Most of the guests have left, and those remaining are friends of the various Priest-Kings of Sakya! But..."

Seeing Eric Yun's hesitant look, Eric couldn't help but smile and said, "Grandpa, what trouble have you encountered? Tell me about it!"

Eric Yun sighed and said, "The young master of the Medicine God Religion, Su Ying, do you remember her?"

"I remember!" Eric frowned slightly. "What about her?"

"She wants to see you and has been pestering me for days..." Eric Yun sighed, but his eyes looking at Eric were quite strange.

"What 'pestering'? Su Ying is older than you!" Eric's teasing words amused Eric Yun, and his gaze became even stranger. "As for why she is pestering me, you'll have to ask her!"

Eric, already feeling uneasy about Eric Yun's gaze, became even more puzzled when he heard this. "Ask me? Is it related to me?" Stay tuned for updates on empire

"Of course, it's related to you!" Eric Yun blinked at Eric and said, "Su Ying is pestering me to see you!"

Eric frowned slightly. What does this girl want? Does she want to "borrow" a vampire for research?

"So, Eric, do you want to see her?"

"No!" Eric refused decisively. "I just want to prepare for the ritual to find my mother as soon as possible. As for other matters, we can discuss them later!"

Eric Yun naturally agreed with this decision and nodded, "Right, we should first handle your mother's affairs! After you move Olivia and her husband's remains to our Medicine King Sect cemetery, we can talk about these romantic entanglements..."

Eric had no intention of correcting Eric Yun's misunderstanding about his relationship with Su Ying. He frowned and said, "Only my mother's remains will be moved to the Medicine King Sect cemetery this time!"

Eric Yun was stunned. "What about your father? Why aren't you..."

"He didn't leave any remains, he was destroyed..."

"What exactly happened back then?" Eric Yun finally couldn't help asking, "Why did it lead to such a serious consequence as 'destroyed'?"

Eric answered, half-truthfully, "We encountered someone who called himself the 'Heavenly Demon'..."

"What? Heavenly Demon?" Eric Yun was shocked. "The Heavenly Demon is still alive... Your father was destroyed by the Heavenly Demon to protect you?"

Eric said with a guilty conscience, "It's more or less like that!"

"Good, good, good Heavenly Demon!" Eric Yun shouted to the sky, "Even if you are a grandmaster-level expert, I will make you pay! My poor Olivia..."
