Chapter 1005: Chapter 1005: Guan Hong’s Arrival

Han Jing and his companions stayed on Guan Mountain Island for about three months before they finally met Guan Shining’s father, Guan Hong.

Since the last time the father and son parted unhappily, Guan Hong hadn’t seen Guan Shining return to the Island Master Mansion for about a month or two, and only then did he belatedly realize that something might be amiss. He sent someone to inquire about the situation and learned that during the past period, Guan Shining was spending all his time with someone from Lan Ling. He also heard that they were hosting a few guests in a mansion in the city, although very few had seen these guests, people weren’t sure what they were doing or where they were from.

Only then did Guan Hong suspect something was wrong. After contemplating for a while, he sent a message to the mansion and came over personally.

That day, it so happened that Guan Shining and Lan Ling had gone out early, taking along Xiao Xue, who insisted on coming along for the excitement. Hence, only Han Jing and his companions were at the mansion, and upon learning of Guan Hong’s arrival, they felt both surprised and unsurprised.

After all, they had been staying at his son’s mansion for three months already, and Guan Hong, as the father, decided to come and take a look only now, which indeed showed a broad-mindedness.

Han Jing and Su Yu met with Guan Hong together, and unsurprisingly, Guan Hong was quite amazed and very surprised to see Han Jing and his companions.

His own strength wasn’t high, only at the Blue Flame Level, much lower than his son Guan Shining, let alone compared to Han Jing and his companions, so Guan Hong held a bit of awe towards Han Jing and Su Yu.

"May I ask what brings you all to Guan Mountain Island?" Guan Hong asked after inviting Han Jing and his companions to sit down.

Han Jing was somewhat surprised to see Guan Hong because, according to Guan Shining’s description, his father was a carefree man who loved beauties, was unrestrained, and somewhat hot-tempered. However, in Han Jing’s view, this person was actually wise and had an air of sophistication.

But one thing was evident: the other party was quite polite to them and did not seem like a person with malicious intentions.

"Lord Guan, you are too kind. We came to the Futu Realm searching for someone and happened to arrive at Guan Mountain Island, where we encountered your son, and it was mostly thanks to him looking after us. We haven’t had the chance to pay our respects to the Island Master and hope you won’t mind," Su Yu spoke courteously to Guan Hong.

Guan Hong quickly waved his hand and said, "What are you saying, young man? If you are Ning’er’s guest, then you are my guest too. I hope you won’t find Guan Mountain Island too simple. As for finding someone... if you need it, I can give orders and if the person is indeed on Guan Mountain Island, they will surely be found."

"Thank you, Island Master. In these days, your son has already assisted in the search, but we haven’t found the person we were looking for. Therefore, in the coming days, we plan to bid farewell to your son," Su Yu gestured towards Guan Hong with folded hands: "But there is one thing we might need to consult the Island Master on. If we wish to leave Guan Mountain Island for other islands, where should we go?"

Guan Hong was stunned for a moment, probably not expecting Su Yu to directly state the intention to leave. Although he came here to inquire about their group, hoping either they would stay or leave, he didn’t anticipate that the other party would be this straightforward. Perhaps they either really had to go, or they immediately grasped his thoughts.

Ning’er was taught to be somewhat unworldly, and he was genuinely a little worried that they might influence Ning’er.
