Chapter 2606: 2606
Chapter 2606 Very Sky Family
Han Sen had just returned to his little jade island when Thousand Feather Crane and the Yun sisters dropped by .
Han Sen frowned . For his safety, the leader of Sky Palace had issued a decree forbidding students of Sky Palace from approaching the little jade island . If his three friends had been allowed to visit, it meant they must have received approval from a Sky Palace supervisor .
As expected, they brought good news alongside a serving of bad news . The good news was that Lone Bamboo was doing fine . He was going to be released soon . The bad news was that Exquisite of the Very High had selected Han Sen . So, Lone Bamboo didn’t need to go to the Very High anymore . Han Sen would have to go and be with the Very High in his stead .
“Sky Palace Leader wanted us to tell you,” Yun Sushang said . “If you don’t want to go to the Very High, we will still find a way for you to stay here . If you don’t want to go, you don’t have to push yourself . ”
When Han Sen heard this, he felt a bit better . He didn’t want to go to the Very High, no matter how many benefits and goodies he might receive . He had too many secrets, and so he couldn’t allow Exquisite to pry open his mind and examine all his thoughts . He was more scared than Lone Bamboo of being naked and having his secrets leaked .
“Sky Palace Leader wants you to visit him . There is something he needs to tell you, face-to-face,” Thousand Feather Crane said .
Han Sen nodded . He followed Thousand Feather Crane to Sky Palace Leader’s house . The leader of Sky Palace didn’t meet Han Sen in the hall . They met in the garden .
Thousand Feather Crane and the Yun sisters had to stop at the doorstep . Without the explicit command of Sky Palace Leader, they were unable to enter . So, Han Sen went through to the garden alone . He found Sky Palace Leader there, sitting in a pavilion and drinking a cup of tea . He was looking at the pond that resided there .
“Sit . This isn’t an office, and I’m not talking to you as the leader of Sky Palace today . You are Yisha’s student, and I am her teacher . I suppose that makes you my half-student, too . Let’s chat . ” The Sky Palace Leader pointed to a place near him .
Han Sen sat down and made himself comfortable . He asked, “You want me here to talk about the Very High?”
The Sky Palace Leader didn’t deny this . He nodded .
“Do you want me to go or not?” Han Sen asked .

The leader of Sky Palace didn’t answer . He took a sip of his tea and said, “We have an agreement with the Very High . We cannot refuse to hand over the people they select . Anyone they select must serve them for four years . Over the years, many Sky Palace students have gone with the Very High . Most of them return safely, with a lot of benefits and a deified status . But if I had the power to prevent it, I wouldn’t allow any student of Sky Palace to be taken by the Very High . ”
After pausing, the Sky Palace Leader said, “I believe you have heard about the Very High from Lone Bamboo . I’m not going to lie . Because many students have gone to the Very High over the years, Sky Palace has no secrets from the Very High . They even know about our secret skill Textless Book . ”
“In that case, why don’t you refuse their requests?” Han Sen asked . He knew Sky Palace must have had its reasons, and he wanted to know what they were .
Sky Palace Leader sighed and said, “Have you noticed that the Sky look like the Very High?”
“You mean…” Han Sen’s brow furrowed . It looked as if he had come to some sort of realization, but he still didn’t understand .
“The Sky and the Very High were the same race in ancient times, but there were brothers that had different opinions,” Sky Palace Leader explained . “They split up, and their descendants became the Sky and the Very High . Textless Book and the Very High Sense are quite similar because of this . ”

Han Sen opened his mouth wide in awe . He had thought Li Keer and Exquisite were Sky, at first . He thought the Very High had skills like the Foxes and could change their appearance .
Now he knew that in reality, Li Keer and Exquisite practically counted as Sky . The Sky Palace Leader continued . “Because they have three eyes and they are very powerful, the Very High were the strongest in the universe in ancient times . Although they weren’t as strong as they are now, they could travel between systems . It was pretty awesome back then . ”
“But the Very High reproduced very slowly . Their children were few and far between, and the race couldn’t expand . At their most populated, they only had a few hundred people . Then one day, triplet brothers were born, and a lot of changes took place within the Very High . The three brothers were very talented . They became pillars for the Very High . The oldest one became the leader of the Very High . The second and third brothers became elders . The three of them worked together to spread the influence of the Very High . The Very High became the leaders of all races . They controlled the whole universe . ”
“However, population growth remained a problem for the Very High . Although they had many systems, they only had one or two hundred people . They had more power than any other group in the universe, but merely holding on to a few systems was hard . So, the three brothers began to fight . ”
“The second brother out of the three wanted to breed with other races to increase the population of the Very High . The eldest brother wanted to keep the blood of the Very High pure . The third one was neutral and believed both plans could work . The three of them were very smart, but none of them could convince each other . The third brother remained uninvested in the arguments, but the conflicts of the first and second brothers became worse and worse . ”
“The second brother wasn’t a leader, so he couldn’t do what he wanted . Instead, he rallied a few others to his cause and departed . They created what you now know as the Sky . And nowadays, we have Sky Palace . The mixed blood increased the ability of breeding, but it also made the genes of the Sky unstable . Our gene talents are shakier . After all these years of mixed blood, most of the Sky’s gene talents aren’t as good as the Very High’s . But every now and again, there one of the Sky with greater genes . Their gene talents can be even better than those of the Very High . ” Speaking of this, Sky Palace Leader sighed and said, “But our origins still lie in the Very High . Their blood still courses through our veins . When the Sky are in danger, the Very High always lend aid and ensure our safety . So, back then, the Sky leader forged an agreement with the leader of the Very High . It isn’t something we should go against . My people are in our current position of safety and security thanks to the efforts of the Very High . We should pay them back . It isn’t too much to ask . ”

“Are you saying you want me to go with the Very High?” Han Sen asked .
The Sky Palace Leader shook his head . “It is entirely up to you . I’m just telling you the pros and cons . If you go, I will ensure your safety . For as long as I am here, and if you don’t commit a crime of murder, I can protect you from any harm . So don’t worry about that . Plus, there are some treasures in the belongings of the Very High that can help you with your wounds . If you go there, it won’t take three years to heal . You will be healed in a short amount of time . Of course, if you don’t go, it will be great for Sky Palace, too . You can stay here while I deal with the Very High . ”
Han Sen was very touched . He knew the Sky Palace Leader wanted him to go, but Han Sen didn’t want to go . He couldn’t allow anyone else to access his secrets . Otherwise, it could be disastrous for the sanctuaries and humans .
