The Unknown Beauty 211 The Dream

"Yeah, we have transmigrated into these bodies… And we need to talk about that," said Lin Yu Yan. 

It was quiet for a few minutes before someone started the conversation.

"Something doesn't sound right… Why are we here?" said the Chu Emperor.

"We already know that. These bodies have regret and revenge and we have been summoned here to finish their deed before we can finally be on our own," said Lin Yu Yan.

"That's true, Yu Yan but…" said Su wen. Even after defeating her father, she still has this weight on her shoulder, as if their mission is not done.

"I do too. The regret this man had was to get his people back. And after that… I still have a feeling something even bigger is going to happen and I have to be there," said The Chu Emperor. He explained about his arrival years ago when the Chu Empire first fell. The Chu Emperor has been here for at least 5 years already.

Lin Yu Yan stood their quiet, also agreeing to their suspicion but it didn't feel like a force like theirs. It was something she has been thinking about the whole time she's been alive in this world. 

"I been having dreams… Dreams about defeating this evil being with 9 other people on my side… I figured since Yu Yan has transmigrated like me, I was thinking there is 7 more like us somewhere in this world," said Quan Su Wen. 

"I also agree… I know what you mean. I had dreams where a warm firebird… no, I believe it was a Pheonix, would tell me things but I always forget what he says every time I wake up. The only thing I remember is…" said the Chu Emperor.

Quan Su Wen has the exact same dream and they both say at the same time, "Go to the center of the world, where the place is sunny and warm and all kinds of people all over the world find peace."

They both looked at each other, knowing at that moment, their dreams must have meaning of some sort. 

But for Lin Yu Yan who was quiet, had no clue about this dream since it has never crossed her mind.

Lin Yu Yan was confused about their dream and why she hasn't gotten it but it wasn't going to stop her from interrupting the conversation.

"Did you also received a 'gift' before you got here?" asked the Chu Emperor to Quan Su Wen. 

"Yes… my voice… the sounds around me," said Quan Su Wen. 

"I have received space… the power to teleport and maybe soon manipulating it…" said the Chu Emperor.

"Ah… that's why we have abnormal skills," said Lin Yu Yan. "A 'gift," huh….?"

She thought about it but she really didn't see or received this 'gift' they are talking about. The moment she woke up, she was weak. She didn't have to sit in a medical bath, longer than a few hours, since her body recovered fast.

The power she had didn't make sense to her but she just used it to her advantage since the whole world wanted to go against her. But something else crossed her mind. 

"But where would this place be? Where does this Pheonix want us to go?" asked the Chu Emperor.

"'Go to the center of the world, where the fire burns and all kinds of people all over the world find peace'... A place where people can live in peace… Where could this place be?"

"I've checked a few places that it could be… Shrine of the Water god up in the North Continent. It's peaceful and the air is considered clean."

"It could be… but it could be in the Cavern of the Abyss in the West Continent… It's known for being the opening to the center of the world... It's just that no one ever comes back once they enter the abyss."

Then it was silent. They all were trying to think of the possible places it could be when Lin Yu Yan thought about something. 

"Maybe it's just a metaphor. Like central… maybe fire means the sun or center of the world means the Central Continent. Since it's literally named the central…" said Lin Yu Yan, suggesting ideas.

The Chu Emperor gasp realizing what she just said. "It's in Huo City!"

"Wait… you might be right!" said Quan Su Wen.

"It's where all kinds of people over the world find peace… It's where the 5 empires of the central continent meet and share common ground! It's a great tourist attraction from the other continents!"

"'Huo' is fire in Chinese! Of course! It has to be it!" said Quan Su Wen. 

The Chu Emperor, having lived in this world longer than the other two, agreed that there is no other place then Huo City.

"But wait… we… I mean you can't leave," said Lin Yu Yan. "If the emperor or a master leaves its post, especially when their system is not stabled yet…"

"It's definitely not a good idea," said the Chu Emperor. 

"How about this…. In 4 years, it definitely should be enough time, let's meet at Huo City by then," said Lin Yu Yan. 

"Isn't 4 years too long?" said Quan Su Wen. She doesn't have much knowledge in ruling a 

"No… it's not too long… it might be too short," said the Chu Emperor. "We have started over… We have to do so much, from making jobs to providing for the people to start producing agriculture to stabilizing the hierarchy and more… that's only a small percent of what I have to do."

"That's true… I have to also some work to finish with the Medical Sect. since I've recently been appointed," said Quan Su Wen. 

The other two thought about it harder, not sure. They still don't know about her decision about leaving. 

"We can just keep you safe here. You don't have to leave the Empire," said the Chu Emperor.

"Yeah, just stay. If we can keep Lady Lin safe all these years, we can keep you safe," said Quan Su Wen.

They were trying to convince her to not leave but Lin Yu Yan already has a plan.

"No. I have to go. I'm not going to risk the lives of the citizens. We still don't know how the information spread if this place was supposedly closed off. I think you have a spy so you need to work on that," said Lin Yu Yan.

"Since the dream doesn't feel urgent. I'm sure it's going to be very important to the point where it will affect everyone's lives. I think We should get stronger in the meantime," Quan Su Wen suggested.

"I'll also go to Huo City to see if it is there," said Lin Yu Yan. "If it is, I'll send you messages through Fukuro," said Lin Yu Yan. 

"Yeah. You're probably right… Okay, in 4 years, let's meet up," said the Chu Emperor. 

"Promise?" said Quan Su Wen.

"Promise," said Lin Yu Yan. She put her hand in the middle of the table in a fist. The other two tagged along and they did a three-way fist pump. 

"I'll go get ready now," said Lin Yu Yan. 

They leave the room and say their goodbyes. Lin Yu Yan goes to her room to see what she can take with her. She needs to plan out where to go as well. 

"I think I'll head over to the West Continent after I check out. I hear it's dry but amazing… I heard there was a fire temple, jungles and crazy things happening. I kind of want to check it out…" she said. She was getting excited.

Though new information arises with more questions, Lin Yu Yan still wants to enjoy life. Now that the main issues the original owner of the body had has now been solved, she was getting excited about what to do with her life.

"Yu Yan," said a voice. She turns around recognizing the voice, to see Han Bingwen in her room. 

"Bingwen," she said with a warm smile. 

"...You wanted to leave, right?" he asked. During the discussion. He could tell that Lin Yu Yan wanted to leave in the first place. She led the conversation to do so since she wanted to leave. She knew most of the people around her would not agree so she asked her Aunt Zhi Zhen to lend her a hand by suggesting it.

"Huh… I was trying to be as discreet as possible but you…" said Lin Yu Yan. She thought she fooled everyone.

Lin Yu Yan knew for a fact that if she leaves without this situation happening, the others would for sure go after her. 

"Haha," Lin Yu Yan chuckled. "You're right. I convinced my Aunt to bring up that suggestion."

Lin Yu Yan continues to pack a few goods into her space ring.

"Why? You're in so much danger. Staying here is the best choice," Han Bingwen said. He, just like everyone else, wants her to stay. If he knows she is safe then he would want her to stay. He didn't care if this will risk the lives of the people.  Find authorized novels in Webnovel，faster updates, better experience，Please click for visiting.

"Why didn't you say that during the meeting?" she asked. He was surprised to hear that. He looks away for a few seconds and looked back at her.

"Because… I know you won't stay… and I want you to be free," he said. 

Her heart wavered. During these two days, she hasn't been thinking about him since her family has been a big deal to her heart. He held her hand and looked down.

"I want you to do what you want to do but I want you to be safe. Even if you are by my side, I don't know what might happen to you…" he said. "Being with me is only going to cause you even more trouble than your already in…"

"Bingwen…"

That was surprising. Lin Yu Yan didn't mean to make him feel this way. But this is what happens when you are in a relationship. 

"I'm sorry…" she said. "But I want to do this… No, I have to do this…"

He didn't say anything. After the discussion, this was the only conclusion he had in order for her to be safe. 

"Yu Yan… I'm going with you… right?" he asked. 

"Of course… you are the only one who can," she said. She embraced him and rubbed his back. 

He loved this feeling, having her in his arms. But this is the very reason why he didn't want her to leave.
