Chapter 1562: The Mysterious Island

“What happened?” Braydon Neal frowned.

Isabel Sumner replied bitterly, “The place we passed through is an Exclusion Zone. No one is allowed to pass through. I thought no one cared about this part of the cosmos. I didn’t expect there to be experts here.”

Those who trespass the Exclusion Zone would die.

Moreover, the starship of the chamber of commerce had openly crossed the Exclusion Zone to shorten the journey, making the violation even worse.

They had treated the ban as a joke.

“There’s a super expert outside who’s proficient in the great path of space,” Isabel said. “I’m afraid we won’t be able to escape today.”

“I’ll go out and take a look,” Braydon said, unfazed.

His status was significant; he was on par with the eight lineage masters, and they addressed each other as peers.

To outsiders, trespassing into the Exclusion Zone was an unforgivable crime, but for Braydon, it was probably a trivial matter.

Isabel was shocked.

“The rules of this Exclusion Zone were set by the race headquarters. Those big shots will definitely punish us severely for trespassing. They don’t care too much about the lives of small figures like us!”

“Small fry?” Braydon shook his head lightly.

In the next moment, he left the starship and appeared in the starry sky outside.

The scholarly middle-aged man looked at Braydon, who seemed to become one with the starry sky.

“Why did you trespass into the Exclusion Zone?” he asked softly.

“I’m lost,” Braydon replied.

The middle-aged man didn’t believe it.

Getting lost was just a lame excuse to fool a child.

“Those who trespass the Exclusion Zone will die,” he said calmly.

“Impudent!”

A majestic voice echoed from the depths of the endless void through the spatial barrier.

The Bright Lord was watching from the shadows!

The Bright Lord’s remnant will could see everything that was happening to Braydon from the depths of the endless void.

Even a wisp of his remnant thought had such power.

How terrifying was the Bright Lord at his peak?

It was the Bright Lord’s voice and a pressure from the side.

The scholarly middle-aged man was both surprised and reverent.

“You’re still alive!”

“I’m dead. Long gone. Just a remnant in the human world,” the Bright Lord replied impatiently.

“Your current cultivation is no weaker than the heads of the eight lineages. You can roam freely between heaven and earth. Go do your own things. What are you doing guarding this desolate place?”

“Back then, Master didn’t take me as a lowly person and brought me by his side to teach me. When Master was alive, he often came here to mourn his old friend. He has already passed away, so I naturally guard this place for Master!”

The scholarly middle-aged man had his own stubbornness.

The master he had followed had fallen, but he would protect the place his master had cared about with his life.

Isabel and the others on the starship were even more shocked and then terrified.

That person was actually on par with the eight lineage masters.

The Bright Lord said impatiently, “A bunch of dead people. Why are you still guarding them? There’s no point. The era of that year has long passed. Let it go!”

“I will wait here for Master to return!” the middle-aged man insisted.

The scholarly middle-aged man dared not be impudent in front of the Bright Lord.

Among the five lords back then, the Bright Lord was the leader, second only to the Master himself.

As for Wortham Kerns, he was only a slave.

The Bright Lord said impatiently, “Stubborn donkey. There aren’t many of my old friends left. If he were still alive, I’m afraid he wouldn’t want to see you all like this. You are haunted by your obsessions!”

“When Master returns, my obsession will disappear!” Wortham had his own beliefs.

The Bright Lord couldn’t bear to see his old friend haunted by his obsession.

He spoke to Braydon directly, “You saved him back then and took him in. He followed you when he was young. When you were at your lowest, he protected you with his life!”

In the cosmos, there were many examples of slaves rebelling against their masters.

When a slave rebelled, it was usually because the master was injured or had lost strength, which would cause the slave to have evil intentions, leading to the master’s death and the slave’s freedom.

However, Wortham was clearly not such a person.

His master had already fallen, yet he still bitterly protected the place that his master had cared about, maintaining peace there.

Braydon frowned deeply.

He had no memory of the previous life that the Bright Lord mentioned.

Until now, he could not sense the soul imprint.

Wortham asked in surprise, “Bright Lord, you mean…”

“He has long returned,” the Bright Lord said lightly.

Swoosh!

Wortham looked at Braydon, his eyes filled with joy.

“Master, is it really you?” he asked hoarsely.

He could not afford to recognize the wrong person.

The Bright Lord would never mistake him!

They had known the master since they were young and had grown up together with him.

Braydon fell silent.

He couldn’t remember anything about the past and didn’t want to fool a loyal person like Wortham.

“Master!” Wortham knelt on the ground, his eyes red. “Wortham welcomes Master’s return!”

“Although I have no memory of you, the Bright Lord is right. The old friends have passed away, and the living should live for themselves.” Braydon also advised Wortham to leave.

Such a person shouldn’t be stuck in such a place.

“I am here to wait for Master’s return,” Wortham said solemnly. “Since Master has returned, Wortham will naturally follow him!”

“You…” Braydon had not expected that such a supreme expert would be willing to stay by his side.

If that was the case, Braydon really wanted him to leave with him!

Earth needed a super expert like Wortham the most.

With such an expert guarding the place, it would definitely protect Earth, even if the space battlefield expanded.

“Are you really willing to come with me?” Braydon asked softly.

“Master’s cultivation is still weak. I dare not claim to be Master’s path protector. Master’s path protector is the Great Empress. I’m only willing to serve Master, and I’m already content.” Wortham lowered his head.

He didn’t have the dignity of an expert at all.

The Bright Lord, who was hiding in the dark, didn’t say anything.

He supported this!

With an old friend by his side, the Bright Lord didn’t believe that Braydon couldn’t remember anything.

“This is the Southern Stellar Realm,” Braydon said. “Do you know Earth?”

“How could Wortham not remember Master’s home planet!”

Wortham had visited Earth more than once and had lived there for a long time.

With a thought, a door appeared in the endless starry sky—a super spatial passage leading directly to Earth.

This was not a problem for a master of the path of space.

Braydon had the intention to go back.

He looked at Isabel, who had walked out of the starship, and said softly, “Isabel, we’ll meet again if fate allows!”

“Take care!” Isabel’s clear eyes revealed a look of reverence and curiosity.

She had never thought that the white-robed youth she had unintentionally helped would have such a terrifying background.

He possessed the mark of reincarnation and was most likely a shocking figure in his previous life.

Even his servants were as strong as the eight lineage masters.

It was terrifying to the extreme!

Braydon and Wortham arrived on Earth through the long spatial passage.

The blue sea stretched as far as the eye could see.

Whales spouted water, and seagulls soared.
