439. What a Wet Blanket! (1)

Translator: Guy Gone Bad

Noticing his tone was not right, Rong Yi straightened his face and looked around warily, “Someone is hiding in the vicinity?”

Seeing that the other side did not come out, Yin Jinye immediately released his divine sense to probe it, but did not find any trace. It was either the other side had gone, or his cultivation was above him.

He quickly pulled Rong Yi up, suddenly, several black shadows shot toward them, speed like lightning, getting them unprepared.

While calling White Peacock over, Ye Jinye hit off the flying objects at them.

Rong Yi only barely used the map in his hand to slap off the dark shadow, and then was carried by Yin Jinye onto the back of White Peacock who flew over.

“What happened?” asked White Peacock with concern.

Rong Yi frowned tightly, “Someone tried to sneak attack me.”

“Who is it?”

“I don’t know, Jinye, did you find who it was?”

Yin Jinye said darkly, “No.”

Rong Yi looked at where they were sitting. “What a wet blanket!”

Rarely he and Yin Jinye had a date outside, but was disturbed.

Then he saw a white shadow appear where they were sitting. Upon closer examination, it was Bai Yunchen, someone he knew, “It’s him.”

“Who is it?” The moment Yin Jinye turned his head, Bai Yunchen already disappeared.

“It’s Bai Yunchen.” Rong Yi replied deeply, “What does he want?”

Yin Jinye tightened his furrows, “Did you just get hurt?”

“No, I was quick enough to use the map to hit off the flying thing.” Rong Yi checked the map to see if it was damaged, but found a new drawing on it, “Hmm? Daddy, check this out.”

He took the map before Yin Jinye, “Here got a new five-pointed star pattern.”

The black lines of it exactly connected Guiling, Dongcheng,, Mogu, Youfu, Xieyu, Yindu, Chahai, Pozhen, Xieshan and…Wangchuan to form a pentagon.

Rong Yi was confused, “So just now Bai Yunchen just wanted to remind us that the ten towns can get connected to form a pattern?”

Yin Jinye narrowed his eyes, “Have no idea of his intention.”

“Can’t he say it face to face? Why so sneaky?” Rong Yi flipped the map over, “What does this pattern mean? Have you ever seen it before?”

Yin Jinye pondered as he stared at it, then took out a brush to connect the five points with lines, “Does it look like a formation?”

“Hmm.”

“But we do not have such a pattern in our formations.”

“Yes, there is.” Rong Yi turned to look at him. “The formations in Pacero’s world are like this. We could go ask him.”

“OK.”

It was already five in the morning when they went back, only one hour or so before dawn.

As Xinyue, who was sitting in the courtyard to meditate, heard the steps, she immediately opened her eyes and saw that Rong Yi and Yin Jinye were going to the backyard hastily.

She wanted to follow up to eavesdrop what was happening, but was afraid that Yin Jinye may notice her. If she angered Yin Jinye, she’d die or get badly wounded the slightest. For the sake of her minor life, she finally pressed down the urge.

Rong Yi and Yin Jinye soon came to the door of Pacero’s room, “Godfather, godfather…”

Pacero, who was not sleeping so heavily, immediately opened his eyes. On hearing it was Rong Yi, He quickly got up and answered the door. Seeing Yin Jinye was also with him, he was stoned, “Master Rong, Lord Yin, what brings you here at this hour?”

Rong Yi took out the map and showed him, “Godfather, I remember your world has this kind of formation, right?”

Pacero took a look at it and nodded. “Yes, there is a formation called Pentacle Star Formation.”

Rong Yi asked, “What does it do?”

Then a lazy voice over their head said, “Similar to your transmitting formation, which could transmit us into some other place.”

Rong Yi and Yin Jinye looked up and saw a bat hanging upside down from the beam.

“Why is Logus in your room?” Rong Yi asked.

Pacero, “…”

“The reason why you are in Lord Yin’s room is why I am in Pacero’s room.” Lugus snorted.

“Oh,” Rong Yi said, looking vaguely at Pacero.

Pacero blushed at once. “Don’t talk nonsense, Logus, or Master Rong will be mistaken.”

“So what? What are you afraid of?” Logus flew down into his human shape and asked Rong Yi, “Why have you suddenly come here to ask about the Pentacle Star Formation thing?”

“We were just anxious to confirm if you know about this kind of formation and forgot that you needed a rest for the night. Then we’ll leave you alone and you keep sleeping.”

“Wait.” Logus stopped them, “You must have some other purpose.”

Rong Yi rolled his eyes, “We also just learned about this kind of formation, what purpose do you think we’ll behold? But it should be very useful, and we’ll tell you when we work it out, and of course, you’re welcomed to join us.”

“You woke us up anyway, so we’ll study it now.”

Rong Yi was also anxious to know Bai Yunchen’s intention, so he sat down to unfold the map, and then briefed them the whole story, “He only drew a five-pointed star pattern, but I don’t know if he wanted to tell us about this formation. The lines outside were drawn by Jinye. Do you think it’d be a magic formation or what?”

Yin Jinye said, “I wasn’t sure when they didn’t explain the use of this kind of magic formation, but after hearing what they said about the function of the Pentacle Star Formation, I am sure it is a formation now.”

Logus nodded, thinking the same as Yin Jinye.

Rong Yi and Pacero took a look at each other, “You mean that when ten towns are joined together into a magic formation, one can open it to…another world…”

Pacero looked at Rong Yi in amazement, “To another world? You mean we can go back to our own world?”

Yin Jinye said, “Quite possible.”

“It’s great,” Pacero exulted, “We can finally go back.”

Logus was silent.

When Pacero noticed that he was unhappy, he asked, “Logus, don’t you want to go back?”

“Of course, but that was my thought more than two years ago, but now…” Logus then just stared at him silently.

Pacero looked at him with a puzzled expression.

Rong Yi really couldn’t take it, “Logus, Pacero is too straightforward, only if you said it explicitly could he get it! Now you are like keeping him guessing.”

Then he turned to Yin Jinye, “Daddy, you should feel lucky that I wasn’t struggling for too long before I took the initiative to purse you! If like them, I guess we still haven’t been together after we have our grandsons!”

With a low smile, Yin Jinye said, “Sometimes it is necessary to be active to make two people get along more harmoniously.”

“Master Rong, Lord Yin,” said Pacero, blushing, “you are mistaken. We are not partners like you thought.”

“Not now, but maybe in the future,” Logus gave a snort.

“I can’t be with a vampire,” Pacero said quietly.

“That’s why I don’t want to go back,” Logus said with a cold face. “When we get back, we will never be able to sit together and talk as peacefully as we do now, but if we stay, we can forget about those timeworn rules and be a couple.”

“If we don’t go back, we will never see our friends and family again. Is that what you expect? And this world is so strange to us, not suitable for us to survive.”

Logus, “…”

Seeing that they were about to have a quarrel, Yin Jinye took up the map and pulled Rong Yi to leave quietly.

“When they go back, it’s true that they can’t be together,” Rong Yi sighed.

Yin Jinye asked him, “Like in our cultivation world, a ghost cultivator can’t be together with a decent cultivator?”

“They are more serious than us. At least in our world, when they meet each other in the centennial meeting, they can still live in peace. But for them, they’d only try to kill each other th moment they meet. In godfather’s eyes, every vampire is an evil existence, must be exterminated, so vampires also very hate godfathers to the bones.”

Yin Jinye, “…”

As Rong Yi and Yin Jinye returned to their own room, Rong Yi unfolded the map and said, “I have a bold guess, it should be that Bai Yunchen and Rong Weiyi want to go to Pacero and Lugus’ world through this formation. But I just can’t figure out why.”
