C2106 The Return of a Familiar Bird
Emerald Dragon Court, No. 3 Villa.
Zhu Xi stood in front of the window in her bedroom, looking at the dark night sky. A shooting star flashed past, signifying that the former had fallen, and in the depths of the clouds, after a few years, there were great changes in the world. In the entire Dragon City, the rich had basically moved to big cities.
The hottest place was naturally the capital city, as houses had a price but no market.
In the past, rich people could buy a villa for 200 million, but not now. To be able to buy a small apartment was already not bad.
Thus, the Beijing aboriginals had made a fortune.
People who had several houses in their family, who sold two of them, would be able to get an unimaginable amount of wealth and live a life of financial freedom.
Everyone in the world was panicking.
The country was in a state of war, but they did not dare to completely give up their lives. The lives of the commoners were still fine, following the issuance of orders, troops were stationed in the cities to build iron walls, a large number of Martial Cultivator voluntarily participated in the battle against the beasts, and many of them died.
When Zhu Xi came out from the Wilderness, there was already a whole army of Martial Cultivator stationed outside. They were extremely powerful and specialised to deal with the demon beasts that ran out to harm the people.
Other than a few demonic beasts that could sneak out through the tall walls and enter the city, they were all surrounded and killed by the Martial Cultivator.
In just a short span of one month, there had already been too many Martial Cultivator deaths, as well as countless demon beast corpses that were sent to the laboratory.
This was an extremely cruel society.
Fortunately, the country gradually stabilized itself, building walls, hoarding food, and planning a lasting war.
A message came from Beijing.
The leader of the Martial Cultivator had already reached a preliminary agreement with the Wilderness.
During the negotiations, the Wilderness was very aggressive. It wanted to make humans submit, or else their entire clan would be exterminated.
It was fortunate that the humans had such a high level of power, causing the Wilderness to be wary of them. Thus, it did not fall out with them.
At that time, two Heavenly King Stage powerhouses had come to the negotiation table, and completely looked down on the human Martial Cultivator. They swallowed a few of the negotiators on the spot, and some of the human warriors had gotten up from their seats and pierced through the heads of the demon beasts with their swords.
The two sides battled. The human warriors had fought one against two, and not only had they killed one Heavenly King Demonic Beast, they had also severely injured the other.
However, the human Martial Cultivator used up all his energy and became a cripple.
He also became a human hero.
It was a pity that the clan that this expert belonged to was quickly divided due to the loss of their Heavenly King Stage Patriarch.
This stirred up a huge conflict in the secular world. No one was willing to participate in the negotiations, especially with regards to high-level battle prowess. There were lessons from the past, so no one dared to act rashly.
Even if the state forced the return of those who had plundered it, it would be of no avail.
At this moment, it caused a huge and terrible effect.
The government convened an emergency meeting, not only to give the family more resources, but also to promise some resources and special rights.
Only then did the incident barely subside.
Unfortunately, the family that lost the ancestor was no longer the family that had lost their ancestor. The ancestor who returned from outer space lost a lot of status with the family.
Zhu Xi had seen this news on the internet.
At the same time, he couldn't help but feel puzzled.
Humans should work together when demon beasts invaded the mortal world. If they were to engage in internal strife now, wouldn't that destroy their own future? Where would humanity's fate lead to?
Resources would always be the object of competition in the Martial Cultivator.
The environment had changed dramatically as all sorts of treasures were unearthed.
Geniuses were as numerous as the clouds.
Those high and mighty families not only had the power to protect themselves, but they also had the power to export powerful forces. As a result, their status became more and more powerful, perhaps they were afraid of the military in the past, but now without them, the demon beasts had already entered the city to kill.
The moonlight was like water.
Standing at the window, Zhu Xi heaved a long sigh.
No one knew when …
He felt pity for the world, but sometimes, his manpower was exhausted and he was unable to do anything about it.
If they could have a strong Martial Cultivator, able to suppress everything.
Perhaps he could change the situation.
Yang Ping's figure appeared in Zhu Xi's mind. He had gone to find the pearl, so she did not know when he would return.
Zhu Xi said that she didn't know that Mingzhu would never tell him about it, which meant that she was just saying it.
"Sis."
Zhu Di came to her sister's side and looked out of the window together. "What are you thinking about?" she asked softly.
Zhu Xi turned her head and tried to hold her sister's hand, but it passed through her body.
Her eyes reddened as she bowed: "Sorry, I didn't take good care of you."
Zhu Di was sensible and comforted, "Sis, this is my own choice. It has nothing to do with you. Didn't Yang Ping come? Why don't we meet him?"
Zhu Xi asked, "Did you sense it?"
Zhu Di snappily replied, "Sis, although I've lost my body, my perception towards the outside world is much more sensitive than yours. You should be clear about where the Dragon City is, and what kind of demonic beasts are hiding there."
Zhu Xi's expression changed slightly as she asked nervously, "Does anyone else know of your ability?"
Zhu Di comforted him, "There aren't many people who would spread what they know. Don't worry."
She knew that her sister was worried about her safety.
Being able to sense demonic beasts was the most important ability in the mortal world.
Think about it,
A strong Martial Cultivator team, with Zhu Di's power, could easily sweep away all the obstacles in the city.
It wasn't because Zhu Xi was selfish.
Once news of his sister's special perceptive ability spread out, it would most likely cause a huge uproar.
Zhu Xi stared into her sister's eyes and said in a low voice, "You have to promise me, other than those who already know, no one else is allowed to leak it, do you understand?"
Zhu Di said helplessly, "Old Sis, you still don't believe me?"
Zhu Xi looked at her younger sister's soul, which flickered between bright and dark, floating in the air as if it didn't exist. She asked, "How did you lose your body?"
Zhu Di's situation was very special.
Logically speaking, without a physical body, it would be hard to maintain the soul state for a long period of time. His sister should have been in the villa for at least a few years already.
Why there are no signs of recession.
Zhu Di turned her head and looked at the night sky. She whispered, "Sis, I will tell you when the time comes."
Zhu Xi said unhappily, "I'm your sister. What can I not say?"
Zhu Di said nothing.
As Zhu Xi watched her sister leave the room and pass through the wall, her heart trembled in pain.
He originally wanted to stay in the Dragon City and do what he liked.
Now, it seemed that many things were not going well.
What about Yang Ping?
Zhu Xi really wanted to pull Yang Ping and ask him about her sister's matter.
With his experience, he should know.
Zhu Xi called out to him in her heart and then waited.
After a long time …
However, Yang Ping still did not appear. Zhu Xi was furious as she thought to herself that he could rush to the ends of the earth with just a thought. What about now?
Liar!
Zhu Xi went to bed huffily.
In the living room downstairs.
Zhu Di's soul floated before the window. After gradually adapting to the state of her soul, there was actually nothing bad about it. Other than eating and drinking, she seemed no different from an ordinary person.
Tonight, Dragon City was exceptionally quiet.
With her elder sister by her side, Zhu Di was even less lonely.
She wandered around the villa and discovered that the advantage of becoming a soul state was that she could fly.
Ordinary people couldn't see it either.
Outside the No. 3 Villa.
By the roadside …
A black shadow appeared. His eyes flickered as he stared at the villa and Zhu Di floating in the living room. A red light flashed across his eyes.
"Is everyone here?"
The shadow said hoarsely.
"Everyone is here."
A few unified voices came from behind him.2
The shadow took a deep breath and said, "This time we have to finish the arrest as soon as possible. We must not let the experts guarding the Dragon City find out. After we succeed, we must leave according to the plan."
"Yes sir!"
The group of black clothed people walked over.
