Novel Full Chapter 924 So old now
With the Baku’s help, Lin Fan was able to finish filling the Mist Gathering Fruit with the mist from both him and the Baku.
Though by the end of it, it seemed that both of them looked a bit tired because of it.
It seemed that both of them had strained themselves a bit to fill this Mist Gathering Fruit.
But at least that meant that the Mist Gathering Fruit would have enough mist to maintain the mist that was currently in the Weeping Mist Forest. With this Mist Gathering Fruit, the mist that was in the Valley of Mist would last a long time.
As long as nothing came to change this, the Weeping Mist Forest and Weeping Mist City wouldn’t lose their protection for a long time.
That was all that Lin Fan wanted to accomplish with this Mist Gathering Fruit.
Though by the end of it, the Baku had a slightly unhappy look on its face as if it wasn’t happy at being used like this. Or it was better to say that it was a child that was complaining about the exhausting work.
Though the Baku was definitely much older than him since it had laid the mist here for a long time, it acted like a child still.
That was just the difference in development cycles.
It took a long time for the Baku to develop into a mature adult, which was why it was still acting like a child even though it was much older than Lin Fan.
Still, it seemed like it was just throwing a tantrum.
When children threw tantrum like this, it was quite easy to calm them down. Especially with how rich Lin Fan was. Find exclusive stories on empire
So with a wave of his hand, he pulled out a fruit that he held out in front of the Baku.
The moment that the Baku saw this fruit, it had a curious look. Then that look of curiosity soon changed into a look of desire as the Baku could feel the spiritual energy coming from this fruit.
This was more than enough to tell it that this fruit was anything but normal.
It even started licking its lips to show just how much it wanted it.
So Lin Fan waved his other hand at the Baku for it to come over and once it was by his side, he brought the fruit in front of the Baku’s mouth and used his other hand to pat the Baku on the head.
The Baku didn’t seem to mind this as it opened its mouth to eat the fruit that was there.
At the same time, there was a look of enjoyment that slowly appeared on the Baku’s face.
It seemed that it was quite happy about being treated like this.
But that treatment didn’t last and soon it was back to Weeping Mist City they went.
Lin Fan stopped patting the Baku and just tossed it into the Pet Storage Space along with Hayase before heading off. Since he had already solved the mystery with this Weeping Mist Forest, there was no hesitation in Lin Fan’s steps at all as he headed out of the forest.
In no time at all, he reached the edge of the forest that he entered from.
But when he arrived, he found a group standing there.
It wasn’t that they were waiting for him, it was more that they seemed like they were a bit lost.
However, that wasn’t strange since it had been a long time since these people had even come out of the Weeping Mist Forest. When Lin Fan found them, they had been wandering around in the Weeping Mist Forest in a daze.
It had been a long time since they had left the Weeping Mist Forest.
When he came out, the former leader of the Mist Guards noticed him and waved at him to call him over. After he came over the former leader of the Mist Guards said, “Sir envoy, you’re out. We’ve been waiting for you.”
The way that he said this would have made anyone believe that they had indeed been waiting for him, but Lin Fan knew that this was not the case. After all, he had been watching them for some time and had seen the way that they acted.
He knew that they were hesitating to return to Weeping Mist City.
After all, it had been a long time since they had returned to Weeping Mist City.
From what they had heard from Lin Fan, everyone that they knew even thought that they were all dead.
So for them to come back after all this time…
It was a bit hard for them.
However, Lin Fan led them back to Weeping Mist City.
He didn’t even give them a chance to go anywhere else, he didn’t even give them a chance to think too much about it. He just brought them directly back to Weeping Mist City before they could even react.
Seeing Weeping Mist City in the distance, there were complicated looks that appeared on the faces of the Mist Guards.
That was when Lin Fan finally stopped and didn’t force them back.
The former leader of the Mist Guards took a deep breath and said, “Thank you for bringing us back here. If it wasn’t for you, we might not have the courage to come here.”
Then turning to the rest of the Mist Guards, he said, “Men, are we the kind of people that are shackled by fear? Do you remember the reason why you became Mist Guards in the first place?”
The Mist Guards were surprised to hear this, but then they revealed serious looks.
They all had these serious looks on their faces as they looked at Weeping Mist City before giving firm nods.
In fact, it almost seemed like they had been embarrassed by the way that they had acted previously.
The former leader of the Mist Guards gave a firm nod as well when he saw them like this and there was a trace of pride that appeared in his eyes. Only when he turned back around, it was clear that there was still a bit of hesitation in his movements.
Following the former leader of the Mist Guards, they headed to the gate that was open to the Mist Guards.
Only they were stopped when they tried to enter the gate.
The guards that were there didn’t seem to recognize the former leader of the Mist Guards or the other Mist Guards.
It was that they didn’t recognize the uniform that they wore.
It was only when the captain came over that this matter was finally solved.
“Sir, how are you still alive?”
The captain of the guards was an old veteran of Weeping Mist City, so not only did he recognize the old uniforms that these Mist Guards wore, he even recognized the former leader of the Mist Guards and the old members of the Mist Guards.
Since he recognized them, it was only natural that he was shocked by the fact that they were still alive.
Everyone in Weeping Mist City thought that these people had died a long time ago.
“Please wait here.” The captain of the guards said before running off.
Since their captain had told them to stay here, the guards naturally kept them here. However, there were many curious looks that were shot in the direction of the Mist Guards that had suddenly been shown to be alive after all these years.
They had grown up in Weeping Mist City, so they had heard many stories about the Mist Guards.
This group of Mist Guards were especially famous since they were the golden generation, the elites that had been chosen to go into the Valley of Mist to find what the source of the mist was.
It could be said that the Mist Guards had never had such elites since that generation.
After a while, there was a group that ran over.
Lin Fan recognized this group since he had been with them not that long ago.
However, this group didn’t even notice Lin Fan when they ran over.
The group was led by the current leader of the Mist Guards and the city lord and it was a group that was made up not just from Mist Guards, but also many other people. These were people that seemed older than the Mist Guards, as if they belonged to a different generation.
When they came over and the two groups met, there was only silence that lingered in the air.
There were looks of disbelief and complicated looks that were on all of their faces, even the faces of the Mist Guards that Lin Fan brought back from the Valley of Mist. But the one emotion that showed the greatest was recognition.
It was clear that they could recognize each other even though they looked much different compared to before.
“You’ve become so old now.” The former leader of the Mist Guards was the one that broke the silence as he said this to the current leader.
“And you look so young.” The current leader of the Mist Guards responded.
After the two of them broke the silence, there were people that ran forward to the Mist Guards that had been brought back.
There were many tearful reunions between them and it seemed like they were still in disbelief over the fact that they were meeting again.
Lin Fan just stood on the side watching over them.
But there was certainly a complicated feeling that filled him since he had the one that was responsible for this in his Pet Storage Space.
