No matter how Chen Lin turned it over in his mind, he could not understand Nana's intentions. Why had she told him to go undo the bell?
Leaving aside the Everlasting Bell's ability to bind love, if undoing it required the person who had tied it to be present, there was no point in him going.
Unless she did not know that either.
But that was clearly impossible.
If she did not know what the Everlasting Bell did, she would not have gone to such lengths to send him to undo it.
The more Chen Lin thought, the more confused he became.
But he could not find Nana now. He could only visit Huqiu himself later and see what trickery lay behind this.
With that thought,
he changed the subject. "My lady, do you know of Great Sky Lake?"
"I've heard of it."
The cloth doll girl was very patient, a complete change from her earlier unapproachable manner.
Chen Lin asked expectantly, "Then do you know someone called the Lake-Fishing Old Man? He is a second-rank Dominator practitioner who killed the Star Emperor of the Seven-Star Realm, and he excels at fishing across the heavens."
The Star Ruins were boundlessly vast. The chance that she was close to the Lake-Fishing Old Man was vanishingly small, so he did not worry too much.
This was the Life Ferry, where the Lake-Fishing Old Man could not sense him. It was the perfect place to inquire about the man.
"The Lake-Fishing Old Man?"
The cloth doll girl considered it briefly.
She transmitted her voice. "Great Sky Lake is a famous fishing ground in the Star Ruins. It is meant for fishing up all things across the heavens. The Lake-Fishing Old Man sounds more like a designation than an actual name."
Chen Lin froze.
