"Crystal Clan disciple Yuguang Yan pays her respects to Elder Chen!"
When Chen Lin reached the entrance, he saw a tall, slender middle-aged figure standing there. Her exposed skin was translucent as jade and gave off a faint glow.
He could not help marveling inwardly. The Crystal Clan really did glow naturally, just as the legends said.
"So it's Fellow Daoist Yu. Please come in!"
Chen Lin did not understand why a member of the Crystal Clan had suddenly sought him out, but he happened to want to establish contact with this race himself, so he invited her into the courtyard.
Once they reached the guest hall, he had a servant bring spirit tea, then asked directly, "May I ask what brings you here today, Fellow Daoist Yu?"
Yuguang Yan inclined her body slightly and cupped her hands. "I heard that Elder Chen has been purchasing Nightmare Realm items for some time, so you must have considerable experience with Nightmare Realm Exploration. Our clan has emerged this time to explore other planes, and this junior accepted the task of exploring the Nightmare Realm. That is why I took the liberty of visiting. I hope Elder Chen will forgive the intrusion."
"Oh?"
Chen Lin asked in surprise, "I've heard that your clan is passionate about exploring other planes. Does that mean you explore planes besides the Nightmare Realm?"
Yuguang Yan smiled. "It seems Elder Chen knows something about our clan, though perhaps not much. Our clan has an inherited spatial talent and is particularly adept at locating otherworld nodes, so we have always been passionate about exploring other planes."
After a pause, she continued, "However, collecting resources is only incidental to our explorations. Our purpose is to find the way home."
"The way home? What do you mean, Fellow Daoist Yu?"
