My Master Disconnected Yet Again

The few of them walked through the dark passage. Suddenly, everything lit up. Their entire surroundings changed. They found themselves in a completely different world.

They saw a water surface that resembled a mirror. There was not even a ripple on the surface of the water, which reflected the blue skies perfectly. It made them feel like they were walking on the sky. Up in the sky, there were not just white clouds. There were also hundreds of thousands of planets that were not apart, but gathered together. They were each glowing blue. It looked like a plane tree.

The water surface seemed to stretch on for eons. In front of them, on the water surface, stood a huge palace that looked extremely strange. It looked formidable – it emanated a strong white light so that one would think that the entire palace was made of light rays alone. The world they were in was filled with some sort of power. It was not God Power, nor was it immortal or spirit Qi. Still, it felt familiar. It felt like power belonging to a manager.

The three of them exchanged looks, then walked toward the huge temple. Each step they took caused circular ripples in the water body. The moment they lifted their feet, pure white flowers would sprout from the place that their feet had just been. They could not tell what was causing it, but they knew that it was extremely beautiful.

Lonemoon was appalled by this place. There were flowers sprouting with each step he took. Indeed, this was a place created by a manager. It also looked huge…

“Eh, is that caused by the aura of our legs?” Shen Ying suddenly asked.

Lonemoon halted. He nearly tripped and fell. Suddenly, the wonder he felt at the place was shattered into pieces.

Two speechless faces turned to look at a certain someone.

“What’s the matter?” Shen Ying asked as she gnawed on her fruit, confused.

Lonemoon: “!!!”

Yi Qing: “!!!”

Every show seemed to be torn apart in front of Shen Ying.

“Father Niu, yours is the biggest!” Shen Ying pointed at the flowers beside Lonemoon’s feet.

“Shut up!” Your leg aura is the biggest. Your entire family’s leg aura is the biggest.

Eh? Wait!

“Why don’t you have any?” He turned back and asked. He realised that there were only two rows of flowers on the water surface – they were formed along the path that Yi Qing and Lonemoon took. However, where Shen Ying walked, there were no flowers.

Shen Ying turned back and answered seriously, “I wash my feet every day.”

“Shut up!” It’s time to let this joke about leg auras go, alright?

“Maybe this is the reason,” Chef said. He lifted his finger and pointed at a figure on the water surface.

Huh?

Lonemoon hesitated. He had not realised earlier, but on closer inspection, he found that his and Chef’s figures on the water body were not their own. Instead, there were two different trees below their feet. Under Chef’s was a huge golden tree that was filled with leaves. Under his was a much smaller purple tree that was extremely bare, as if it was entering winter slightly earlier

These were… their plane trees!

There was nothing under Shen Ying’s feet – not even a reflection.

Lonemoon’s expression darkened. Suddenly, he felt appalled at the manager who was head of this Big Dao Organisation. This simple-looking water body could actually reflect the condition of their places. It was no wonder that it could put its own fruit on the plane trees without anyone realising earlier. The manager inside indeed had strong powers.

Lonemoon and Yi QIng were both deep in thought. They exchanged a meaningful look, then continued on their way to the huge palace. The palace was tall and wide. It was surrounded by a stone wall about ten feet high. Just as they reached the entrance, the entrance gates opened for them.

The inside did not look like any ordinary hall. Instead, it looked like a limitless galaxy. From the entrance, a path made of stars led them inward. As they walked, the stars beneath their feet swayed about like fireflies. This really was a path of stars.

Lonemoon hesitated for a moment before he continued walking. The path of stars led them toward a stage that was floating in mid-air. The moment the few of them stopped in front of the stage, a male voice sounded.

“Are you the managers who are taking part this time?”

Lonemoon instinctively turned to look slightly to the right and found that a strange aura had appeared out of nowhere. A moment later, the galaxy seemed to split apart to allow a human figure to appear before them. Then, the space beside them changed as well. More than ten figures appeared around the stage, each of them with about the same aura as Lonemoon and Chef. There was no question about it – these were the managers who were here to take part in the Big Dao Organization.

Lonemoon counted the number of people there. Here alone, there were about 16 people. At the same time, all 16 people turned to study everyone else around them.

“Look at their aura. I think they’re managers whose planes have just been formed. Are our standards now so low?” The man who spoke first laughed mirthlessly. It was obvious that he had his opinions about Lonemoon and Yi Qing.

The woman beside him said, “We just sent out the invites not long ago. Although their planes have just formed, they managed to pass the test. It shows that they do have what it takes.”

The man on the right added, “People who are here have proved themselves worthy to become one of us.”

“That’s right, Tu Zhi, for all we know, we might all become members of the same organization in the future. Why must you put them in such a spot?” Someone else said

“Hmph!” The man named Tu Zhi tutted and sniggered again, still unsatisfied. “We don’t know for sure whether they’ll make it. We don’t let just any manager join our Big Dao Organization.”

Lonemoon frowned. It was enough that they had sent them invites to join this organization out of nowhere and even put them through some kind of stupid test. Now that they made it here, they even had to put up with people mocking them and looking down on them? More and more, he was feeling disgusted at this Big Dao Organization.

The woman beside Tu Zhi smiled at them and said, “Managers, please do not be nervous. We are all comrades from the same organization. As long as Boss Yu Heng gives the nod, you will be one of us. This is just a small matter – we just need some confirmation.”

Apart from Tu Zhi, the rest of the 16 people looked to the person in the middle.

“May I ask, when the few of you were walking here, what colour were the flowers that sprouted?” The woman asked seriously.

Lonemoon hesitated, unsure why she was asking this. However, figuring that it was not worth hiding things like this, he answered, “The flowers beneath our feet were white.”

“White!” The woman exclaimed. Apart from her, the other people around looked at them with suspicion. “Are you sure they were white?”

“Yes.”

“…”

Everybody present fell silent. Tu Zhi was the first to speak up. “How could that be! I don’t believe that these two new managers would have that much power.” With that, he raised his hand and conjured the image of the water body outside. They watched the image of Lonemoon and Yi Qing walking across the water surface and saw the white flowers sprouting behind them. Tu Zhi’s face drained of colour. He was eating his own words.

The other managers were equally shocked. They turned to one another and began whispering. This seemed to be exceptional to everyone.
