Jiang Ning rolled his eyes. "What are you thinking about? There are prerequisites you must meet before consuming this stuff. Ordinary folks will not be able to take it."
Huang Yuming grinned. "If I start learning martial arts now, do you think I'd make it?"
Jiang Ning couldn't be bothered with him.
He frowned slightly. Peter Pan's life had been extended, but he knew that bigger trouble was coming his way.
"Perhaps you right. Even if we can't live forever, it's still good if we can advance humanity," he murmured.
Huang Yuming was just joking, but after seeing Jiang Ning's serious expression, he knew that things weren't as simple as they seemed.
Jiang Ning had gone into the passageway along with Greedy Wolf and must have gone through a lot and also found out about a lot of things. He knew exactly what this expression on Jiang Ning meant after working for him for so many years.
"We've got trouble?" asked Huang Yuming.
"Some," Jiang Ning nodded. "It could also be big trouble."
The memories he had inherited were not good ones.
Besides the images of that battle and the scenes where weapons clashed and blood was shed, one name rang in his mind.
The Underworld.
Just like how the Heavenly Palace existed, a second mysterious place existed - the Underworld.
The Heavenly Palace had been destroyed by the ones who had climbed out from the Underworld.
It was already crazy enough to think that something like the Longevity Pond existed. But the fact that the Heavenly Palace had been turned into nothing but ruins showed how frightening the people from the
Underworld were.
Jiang Ning had no idea how big a problem would be coming for him after finding out about all this. But things had already come to this, and it seemed like everything had been predestined in the first place. No matter which way he chose to go, he would have eventually reached this point.
Huang Yuming took a deep breath, but replied very calmly, "Haven't we run into such situations many times before already? Since the day we declared Donghai as our base, we've run into nothing but trouble." He burst out laughing. "In fact, if someday no trouble comes our way, I might have trouble getting used to it."
