Chapter 56: 56 looks familiar

"That person, I have seen him somewhere before. Perhaps in a dream..." The man muttered to himself, ignoring his subordinate’s question. After speaking, he slowly turned around and gazed at Mu Hanyan’s retreating figure without shifting his eyes. This man, clad in black with gold intricate patterns on the sleeves and edges, was ancient yet ethereal, clearly someone of no ordinary status.

What was even more astonishing was his face, breathtakingly handsome as if he were a Banished Immortal. His long brows extended into his temples, his deep eyes, like the night sky, seemed to draw one in, and his tall nose sat above distinctively sensual, thin lips. Every movement he made was ineffably elegant, a simple turn of his head left an impression of peerless grace, making it impossible to look away.

He slightly lifted his head, staring in the direction Mu Hanyan had gone, remaining silent for a long time. After a while, his lips curled into a faint smile, his voice was like the cold moonlight or a perennially cold spring, sending shivers down the listener’s spine. He spoke softly, "Enough, I’ll see him another time."

The few subordinates behind him exchanged shocked glances upon hearing their lord’s words. What was their lord saying? What did he mean by saying he had seen him before, or in a dream? They couldn’t believe those cheesy pick-up lines had come from their lord! Besides, a Banished Immortal like their lord showing unusual interest in someone for the first time, and that person being a playboy! And to top it off, a male playboy! Even though the playboy was quite handsome, he was still a man.

Though their strength was vastly inferior to their lord’s, it was enough to dominate Heishi City, and they had overheard the comments made about Mu Hanyan. They had also learned that the beautiful young man was the eldest son of the Heishi City Lord, Big Playboy Mu, before coming to Heishi City.

Everyone looked bewildered. A Banished Immortal like their lord, showing even a little additional interest in someone for the first time, and that person being the infamous playboy and waste, Mu Hanyan of Heishi City. Of course, they didn’t truly think their lord would be interested in a man. What exactly was going on with their lord?

Despite their many questions, no one dared to voice them.

...

Mu Hanyan was oblivious to the commotion behind him, lost in thought as he walked, heading back to the City Lord’s Mansion.

It wasn’t until he returned to the Mu Residence that Mu Hanyan’s excitement began to settle, and he started to ponder another issue: why had the mysterious Star Compass appeared in his possession, and why had it brought him such an astonishing enhancement in power?

A face that was once extremely familiar and dear to him, yet also brought him the most painful memories, appeared before his eyes. Fen Qianji! Could it be that all of this was related to him?

Past events surfaced before him, the life-and-death experiences they shared, the merciless betrayal, causing him to feel as if he could hardly breathe, his heart ached as if it were being wrung.

"Never mind, I won’t think about it now. What’s meant to come will come again, and one day I’ll find the answer." Having lived through much joy and sorrow, Mu Hanyan’s disposition was far more mature than others his age. He would not trouble himself with things he couldn’t understand and quickly cast his doubts aside. The situation he faced now did not permit him to wallow in memories or to wastefully pity himself. He still had many things to diligently prepare for, many things to change.
