Li Yu: "......"

Li Yu naturally didn't believe that such a coincidence existed in the world; he could just randomly pick someone in and it would be Zhao Yue.

Moreover, everyone in the villa was celebrating Zhao Yue's birthday, and the girl in front of them clearly wasn't the main character; she didn't even have any followers, making her seem out of place.

In comparison, he was more inclined to believe that the Miss Su from earlier was Zhao Yue.

Li Yu glanced at the curly-haired girl with some suspicion. Could this person be a con artist?

Unexpectedly, the curly-haired girl seemed to sense the doubt in Li Yu's eyes and immediately pulled out a wallet.

In front of Li Yu, he showed her a photo inside.

Upon closer inspection, Li Yu saw that the photo clearly showed Zhao Deyang and the girl intimately embracing each other, and the two appeared to have a very close relationship.

Just then, a series of light footsteps sounded from not far away. A girl passed by and, seeing the curly-haired girl, teased her with a grin:

"Zhao Yue, how come you can chat so enthusiastically with a waiter!"

"You're so nosy," the curly-haired girl retorted.

Li Yu then realized that the curly-haired girl in front of him, who seemed to be an outsider, was Zhao Yue, the person he was looking for.

After confirming her identity, Li Yu directly stated her purpose for coming:

"Hello Zhao Yue, I am here on behalf of General Zhao Deyang to deliver a letter to you on my way."

Upon hearing the name Zhao Deyang, Zhao Yue's relaxed and cheerful expression instantly turned serious. Without hesitation, she quickly called away her friends who were laughing and playing around beside her.

After they all left, Zhao Yue pushed open the door behind her and turned to gesture for Li Yu to go inside and talk.

Li Yu followed Zhao Yue inside.

The room was decorated very warmly, and there was even a pot of fresh flowers on it.

After Zhao Yue entered, she seemed like a completely different person. She quickly turned around, closed the door, and anxiously asked Li Yu:

"Where's the letter!?"

Her voice revealed an undisguised urgency and tension.

Li Yu took out the letter Zhao Deyang had given her and handed it over.

After receiving the letter, Zhao Yue glanced at the handwriting and immediately concluded that it was indeed written by his father, Zhao Deyang.

"It really is my father's letter!" Zhao Yue murmured to herself.

She didn't even care that Li Yu was still standing beside her, and eagerly opened the envelope.

With a gentle tap, two exquisite cards and a letter fell out.

Zhao Yue quickly opened the letter and read it carefully.

Although to outsiders these words were just ordinary greetings, Zhao Deyang's daughter seemed to see something else entirely, as if each word contained a deeper meaning and implication.

"Major events have occurred in Wucheng; leave immediately."

The more Zhao Yue read, the more serious her expression became.

As she read to the end, she would occasionally look up at Li Yu standing in front of her.

"Now that the letter has been delivered, I shall take my leave."

After completing Zhao Deyang's mission of delivering the message, Li Yu planned to leave.

Just as he turned to open the door, a clear voice called out to Li Yu:

"etc!"

Li Yu turned around in confusion, only to see that Zhao Yue seemed to have something to say.

Seeing this, Li Yu was a little puzzled, wondering what else she wanted to do by calling her back.

Although Zhao Yue didn't know why her father had made this arrangement, she figured this young man must have something special about him, so she decided to do as the letter said.

"Wait a moment."

After saying that, Zhao Yue went to the bedside and skillfully reached out to feel around on the wall.

With a soft "click," a hidden compartment slowly opened in the previously smooth wall.

Zhao Yue quickly reached into the hidden compartment and took out several items that looked quite important. Finally, she also took out an enormous beast crystal core.

When Zhao Yue walked over with the enormous beast core, Li Yu's eyes were instantly drawn to her, and she couldn't look away for a second.

Li Yu stared intently at the beast crystal core. He swore it was the largest beast crystal core he had ever seen in his life.

He could feel the immense energy emanating from the crystal core without even touching it.

This is still an unused alien beast crystal core!

Seeing Li Yu's expression and the slight upturn of her lips, Zhao Yue immediately understood the meaning behind her father's letter.

She walked up to Li Yu with the beast core in her hand and asked softly:

"The letter says your name is Li Yu, right?"

Seeing Li Yu nod, Zhao Yue continued:

“My father mentioned in his letter that if you come to deliver this letter and are willing to take me away from Wucheng, then this beast core will be yours.”

After saying that, Zhao Yue deliberately handed the huge alien beast crystal core she was holding in her hands to Li Yu.

"Let's go together?" Li Yu hesitated upon hearing this.

When the Water Era arrived, he still planned to migrate westward, but he himself had no idea where he would stop.

"My destination might be different from what you're thinking," Li Yu told him truthfully.

"I know, as long as you can take me away from Wucheng, that's fine."

"However, you need to ensure my safety on the way. As for the destination, I will leave on my own once I reach a suitable place," Zhao Yue explained.

As she spoke, she pushed the beast core forward a little further.

Li Yu's gaze involuntarily fell on the enormous crystal core, and he swallowed hard.

If it were simply a matter of having Zhao Yue migrate along with them and protecting her safety on the way, it wouldn't be too difficult.
