Chapter 15 Retreat



Although the two had reached an apparent cooperation, Chu Yao knew that Qian Hu's words could only be believed half-heartedly.

But it's not a big deal. Qian Hu needs Chu Yao's fighting power, and Chu Yao needs the place where Qian Hu can provide her with quiet practice. They just use each other and get what they need.

As for six months later, no one can predict what will happen.

But a great chaos is probably inevitable.

Chu Yao declined Zhang Dahan's escort and came to Senior Sister Bai's residence. The two began to study the world map of Lingyuan Star.

"Junior sister, do you think it would be feasible to ask a cultivator to draw such a map?" Bai Yuejian was also shocked by the modern technology of the celestial civilization, and stared at the map for a long time.

"It's doable, but difficult. Even if a Nascent Soul cultivator were to travel all over Fengyuan using the method of spiritual rubbing, it would take decades to map every mountain, river, and sea on the planet, and there's no guarantee it's all correct.

Besides, cultivators of our level are usually busy with their own cultivation, so who would put in the hard work to do these things?"

"That's true. Alas, I used to think that by reaching the peak of the Nascent Soul stage, I was already the master of a region, and that no one below the Divine Transformation stage could rival me. Now, on this Lingyuan Star, I realize how vast this world is. I was truly a frog in a well before."

"It's okay, Senior Sister. Even if we are frogs in a well, we are still the leaders among the frogs! Now that we have jumped out of the well, we are not necessarily worse than others."

"I hope so. By the way, I found this book from that old man named Mo earlier."

Chu Yao saw nine big words written on the book in her senior sister's hand: "Introduction to Geometry for Fifth Graders".

"?" Yaoyao asked in confusion.

"It contains some knowledge about using numbers to analyze shapes, which is quite helpful for my research on formations. I heard that in the Celestial City, this is only something children learn. They also have middle schools and universities... just like the private schools we have here. I wonder what kind of views on 'geometry' they have in their universities. Perhaps there are some similarities with ancient formations..."

Chu Yao quickly stopped her senior sister from discussing the battle formation, and the two of them turned their thoughts back to the map.

The land and sea areas of Lingyuan Star are similar, with a total of three continents. The Beishan Mine is located on the largest of them.

To the west and south of the mine are vast wastelands, to the north are long mountains, and further north are the ice-covered polar regions.

Flowing down from a high mountain in the north, there is a long river flowing eastward, called "Jinghe River".

Going east along the Jing River, there are many emerging cities, and scattered towns are connected together to form urban clusters until the river flows into the sea.

The small towns have various names, but the largest one is in Haikou, called Tianhai. These small towns are all under the jurisdiction of Tianhai City and are collectively known as the Tianhai District.

In name, the Beishan Mine is also part of the Tianhai area.

If Chu Yao learned how to shop online, her address now should be: Konghai Galaxy·Lingyuan Star·Tianhai Region·Xiaoyu City·Beishan Mine.

You don’t have to remember Xiaoyu City, hmm.

The two discussed for a long time and had a big disagreement on the escape route.

"Junior sister, you're usually quite clever, why are you so clueless now? If you were to enter the city, with the Heavenly Man's means, any technology might be able to easily track you down!"

"Going into the mountains is a dead end, Senior Sister! A great hermit hides in the city. Besides, if we don't contact the gods, when will we be able to buy a mobile phone? Er, I mean learn about technology."

The two argued for a while about whether to go north or east, but finally reached an agreement to go north first and then east.

The route was set, Chu Yao carefully put away the map, and went to the mine as usual the next day, digging while waiting for news from Qian Hu.

She confirmed a lot of things through Shouhou.

For example, the transfer that Qian Hu mentioned was indeed true, and most people knew about it, but the date was not as precise as Qian Hu said.

"Sister Chu, I've heard there's someone in the Xiaoman Gang who can remove the slave rings. The rumors are getting more and more outrageous. It's said that someone among the miners is planning a rebellion!"

"Rebellion? Does anyone in the command know about this?"

"Then I'm not sure. If Zou really knew about this, I don't know what kind of commotion it would cause!"

This must have been facilitated by Liu Yun and certain forces she represents, but what good does it do them?

"Anyway, Sister Chu, you should be careful too. Everyone in this mine is worried about their own safety and no one wants to get into trouble."

The storm is coming. Chu Yao naturally won't get involved in these things. Her main task now is to practice and practice again.

But she didn't expect the fire to come so quickly.

First, many people protested in the cafeteria because the food was too small, but were suppressed by their superiors; then it was reported that some people gathered in the cafeteria to cause trouble, and were directly caught by Fatty Zou, and many people died.

The next day, Liu Yun was seen walking beside Fatty Zou. The slave ring around her neck had been taken off, and she had changed her clothes, looking very proud.

What a great “method to untie the ring”!

Seeing Liu Yun showing off in the shelter with two celestial guards, Chu Yao finally understood what she was planning.

She spread rumors first and then put down the chaos. Naturally, this operation earned her the trust of Fatty Zou and turned her from a slave into a master.

Liu Yun was willing to sacrifice his own reputation to feed the tiger, which shows that he is a real character.

This also made Chu Yao more cautious towards Elder Liu. Chu Yao had offended her that day, and who knew if this person would hold a grudge against her.

It’s better to avoid her if you can. Now Liu Yun has become a favorite in Fatty Zou’s eyes, and it would be unwise to provoke her again.
