Signing-In: The Lazy Moon Goddess-Chapter 690: Decisions
After the compensation was done and the sign in rewards was also received, Yue Xuexia plans to leave. However, she recalled that this Stargazing clan is a clan that is connected to the Immortal Star Emperor. They were most likely sent here by that man. Though he wasn’t Yue Xuehua, the obsession of that man made her uncomfortable. In the eyes of the Moon Goddess, this Immortal Star Emperor is much more annoying than Shen Jueyang.
After all, she might have merged with Yue Xuehua, but that is only temporary. In the future, she plans to completely let Yue Xuehua live on her and only borrow her ability when she needs to use their full strength. It can be said that Yue Xuehua would become a clone who had her own life in the future.
She said to the Stargazing clan, "I do not know what your emperor told you to do. But, my business will only be my business alone. If you need something from me, you should come yourselves. Now, be gone!"
With a wave from the Moon Goddess’s hand, a powerful surge of space elements spread in the area and a huge space crack appeared in the galaxy. When people glance over it, those who recognize the scenery will know that this is the Immortal World. When the Stargazing Clan turned around they saw that the Moon Goddess and her people had disappeared before them and reappeared outside their floating island.
Under the cold aloof gaze of the Goddess of the Moon, they saw her nonchalantly pushing their island through the space crack.
"This Empress doesn’t like unannounced surprise arrivals. If someone comes over again next time unannounced. I might destroy you on the spot thinking that you are enemies. Be warned."
Xiao Muen, Old Master Han and Han Haerin were speechless seeing such an imaginable scene of one space cracking and opening, finally revealing another location. There is also that floating island fling inside like a toy by Yue Xuexia. They knew that the Goddess of the Moon is the most powerful on their planet. But it seems they had underestimated her. She seems to be powerful compared to some foreign cultivators that invaded their world.
Under the control of the Moon Goddess, as soon as she passes through the island on the other side, she immediately closes the space portal. Creating this space rip took too much of her qi feeling tiredness after all these years. However, her face remains calm and collected. Only the system and the hidden one in her necklace knew about her weakened state.
The system asked, [Mistress, are you tired? Don’t use qi anymore. I will directly teleport your group back to that office.]
’Alright. Thank you, Qiuqiu. I’m a bit sleepy. I will leave it to you,’ said Yue Xuexie.
With Qiuqiu at work, the group experienced a different kind of teleportation. It wasn’t instant teleportation like what Yue Xuexia used but the kind where the scenery crumbles and they return to the familiar scenery of Han Haerin’s office.
A male voice resounds in the mind of the three mortals.
{Xue’er needs rest. Xiao Muen you can stay here or return to the country with mortal means.}
Xiao Muen asked as he looked around trying to find the man who took Yue Xuexia away.
{You cannot find me. Just believe in my words when I said that Xue’er is alright. You can see her when you get home.}
The voice had faded as Yue Xuexia disappeared with it. Xiao Muen was surprised as he didn’t know the existence of the system who took Yue Xuexia away. If only he knew that there isn’t just one person protecting Yue Xuexia he wouldn’t have to worry too much.
Xiao Muen looked at his niece, "Syaorin, naneun sinbunjeungina yeogwoneul junbihaji motaesseo. Nareul hwasyaro dasi bonaejul su isseo?"
Translation: [Xiao Rin, I didn’t prepare any ids and passport with me. Can you send me back to Huaxia.]
"Jeohante matgiseyo, Syao Samchon. Jeodo daemonimi geokjeongdoeyo. Jeodo dangsingwa hamkke hwasharo galgeyo." said Han Haerin.
Translation: [Leave it to me Uncle Xiao. I am also worried about Godmother. I will go to Huaxia with you.]
Xiao Muen excused himself for a while and a maid led him to his room. As soon as he was left alone in the room his hand started trembling. The things he had seen before was something only considered as fantasy in the era of modern civilization. But after Cultivation became a trend, a lot of things had started to change. At that time, he thought that becoming one is just another form of strength. It might not be overwhelming enough to change his mind.
However, the scenery of them standing in space without worrying of breathing, that glorious floating island that seems from another world and the way Yue Xuexia controlled the space and her actions of nonchalantly handling foreign cultivators that are no different than aliens left him speechless. There is even the scenery of the world collapsing only to return to a reality that he is familiar with.
"Can a human achieve that level of strength? No wonder they call Xue’er a goddess. With her strength she is indeed no different to the gods in the mind of people. If I have enough strength, even just half of what Xue’er possesses, then protecting my wife will not be a problem. That devastating feeling of failing to protect my wife and family, I never want to experience it all over again. I must get stronger. Strong enough to protect what I love with my own hands." Xiao Muen mumbles as he starts meditating in the guest room. Not even willing a bit of time to achieve his new goal in life.
Xiao Muen wasn’t the only one who felt like this. The scenes of the grandfather and granddaughter were enough for them to believe one can truly become a god. Though it was a bit too late for the old man, Han Haerin is still young. She should be able to achieve a similar level of strength as the moon goddess if she focused on cultivation right now.
Old Master Han and his granddaughter Han Haerin met each other’s eyes. Even though they haven’t spoken what their thoughts are, as if being able to read each other’s mind, their topic leads to one thing which is cultivation.
Han Haerin hesitated, "Harabeoji, jeo..."
Translation: [Grandfather, I...]
"Dangsineun suryeone jipjunghago sipjiman hoesa ttaemune geokjeongdoenayo? Geokjeong maseyo. Harabeojineun ajik ganghamnida. Getaga dangsinui daemoga jege jangsuyageul jusyeosseuni, naiga deureoseo swipge jukji anheul jeongdoneun chungbunhal geosimnida. Getaga suryeoneun sumyeongeul neullil su isseuni, i noineun swipge jukji anheul geosimnida. Abeojiwa eomeoniga nae gyeote gyesindamyeon, geujeo naui jeonghaejin hugaejain cheokhagiman hamyeon doeni deo gandanhal geosimnida." Old Master Han had spoken.
Translation: [You wanted to focus on Cultivation but are worried about the company? Don’t worry. Grandpa is still strong. Moreover, your godmother has given me a Longevity Pill, it should be enough to ensure that I will not die easily due to age. Moreover, cultivation can increase one’s lifespan, this old man will not be dying soon. With your father and mother by my side, it would be simpler as they only need to pretend as my chosen heir.]
"Manyak nega kiugo sipdamyeon naneun makji anheul geoya. Getaga ne daemoga eolmana gangryeokhanji saenggakhaebomyeon, geunyeoneun ama uri segyee meomulji anheul geoya. Geuttaega omyeon urineun huwonjareul ilge doel geoya. Miraee neoneun uri hanssi jibanui gajang gangryeokhan huwonjaga doel su isseo. Nollabji anhni?" added the Master of the Han Clan.
Translation: [If you want to cultivate I will not stop you. Moreover, with how powerful your godmother is she will most likely not stay in our world. When that time arrives, we will lose our backers. In the future, you can become our Han Clan’s strongest backer. Isn’t that amazing?]
Han Haerin nods her head convinced by her grandfather’s words, "Geokjeong maseyo. Harabeoji, jeoneun daemonimkke jega badadalago gancheonghal geoyeyo. Apeuro jeoneun uri han gamuneul jiwonhal su inneun choegoui jonjaega doel geoyeyo!"
Translation: [Don’t worry. Grandfather, I will beg Godmother to accept me. In the future, I will become the greatest backing our Han Clan can have!]
After the young miss left the office, Old master han suddenly held his chest and started wheezing as if in great pain. With a trembling hand, he took out a bottle of medicine. These are pills the hospital had given to him. It would stabilize his state back to normal. In reality, that rumors of him being sent to hospital is not merely a scheme for those parasitic relatives to be baited out. He was indeed ill. The type that not even one doctor can find out what is wrong with him.
From the side room, the Young Han Yoonjun comes out and helps him ease the pain on his chest. Even though the old man was able to hide it from his granddaughter, he couldn’t truly hide it from his son. Han Yoonjun wasn’t just his most talented son, but also the real controller of the Han Clan’s companies. That’s why when he died before, the company almost fell completely and the old man had to take over all over again only to save a few core companies for the family.
"Appa, Haerin-ege geojismalhamyeon an dwaeyo. Jeogeodo uriga dalui yeosinege dangsineul salpyeobwa dallago butakhal su isseoyo. Ruri eolgul deokbune geunyeoga dowajuljido mollayo. Hajiman uriga meonjeo butakhaeya hago, geunyeoga waseo dowajugil gidarimyeon an dwaeyo. Gyeolguk geunyeoneun daereul ieoganeun Han ssi gamunege neun amu chaegimi eopgo, danji jasineui huwonjain Luriege man chaegimi itjanayo." said Young Han Yoonjun.
Translation: [You shouldn’t lie to Haerin, Dad. We could still beg the Moon Goddess to check on you at least. She might help us because of Ruri’s face. But we have to be the one to ask and not wait for her to come help us. After all, she had no responsibilities towards the Han Clan except for her goddaughter.]
Old Master Han said, "Han beon butakaneun geoseun ho-uijiman, du beon butakaneun geoseun bijieyo. Jeoneun haringwa yeosin saiui gwangyega neomu maneun hoeui ttaemune nappajineun geoseul wonhaji anayo."
Translation: [Asking for one is a favor. Asking twice is a debt. I do not want the relationship between Haerin and the Goddess to turn sour because of too many favors.]
