As night falls, the starlight casts a silvery glow, and the brightly lit metropolis reveals itself under the beautiful moonlight.
Looking at the faint outline of the city and the neon lights in the distance, Wang Zheng finally breathed a sigh of relief and temporarily let down his guard.
In any case, this short trip to Guizhou has come to a successful conclusion.
Although there were some twists and turns in the process, and some time was wasted in the entanglement with the Crimson Flame Eagle King, the final result was still satisfactory.
Wang Zheng managed to bring back the precious Golden Sun Fruit Tree without any major incidents.
Not only did he establish initial trust with this little gold during the battle, but his own attributes and spiritual energy limits also increased. Not to mention, he also verified his cultivation results and determined a set of strategies that might be useful in the future.
Overall, while achieving their goals, they also gained a lot.
However, since this was Wang Zheng's first time visiting a human settlement, especially a large city like Jingnan with a population of nearly ten million, the scarcity of spiritual energy made Xiao Jin behind him feel somewhat uneasy.
Her relaxed sitting posture turned tense again, just like when she first ascended to the clouds, and she wrapped her roots tightly around Wang Zheng's thigh.
Hmm... this attempt to "hook up with someone's coattails" is quite clever.
Wang Zheng could understand this, after all, the plant-like beast's strength was undeniable, and there were far too many humans in Jingnan City stronger than him, so a little wariness was only natural.
Wang Zheng gently rubbed the little guy's roots, comforting Xiao Jin so that he wouldn't be too nervous and get scared by the everyday life before even bringing him back to school.
Because he was carrying Little Gold with him, it was inconvenient for him to land. Although people in the Spiritual Era were more open to new things, it was still not good to flaunt Little Gold in public.
Given Xiao Jin's spiritual energy fluctuations and unique appearance, in order to avoid causing unnecessary trouble, Wang Zheng flew straight towards Nanjing University.
Perhaps because the current situation is indeed quite serious, since the last incident in Yunnan, even the security in this rear city has been strengthened a lot.
Wang Zheng had just entered the airspace of the southern suburbs of Beijing when he sensed two waves of spiritual energy rising rapidly from behind and behind him, locking onto him in advance.
When Wang Zheng flew back from Yunnan with Chu Tianxing, there wasn't this level of security, and that was during the daytime.
Seeing this, Wang Zheng knew that the military region's garrison had discovered him, and the aura they were emanating was a warning. If he ignored them and entered the city directly, there was no guarantee that the other side wouldn't take the initiative to attack.
Although it didn't bother Wang Zheng, he figured it was better to avoid trouble, and the brothers in the military region were his own people; they were just being responsible.
Thinking of this, Wang Zheng slowed down and stopped in place, patiently waiting for the other party to approach.
However, this sudden change made Xiao Jin even more nervous. She clung to Wang Zheng with both hands and feet, refusing to come down, and even huddled behind Wang Zheng's broad back, clearly somewhat frightened.
Wang Zheng gently comforted Xiao Jin by holding the leaf in her hand.
"It's okay, don't worry..."
As soon as he finished speaking, the two uniformed officers stepped onto the materialized spiritual energy and arrived in front of Wang Zheng in the blink of an eye.
Before the other party could ask any questions, Wang Zheng took out his military officer's ID card and handed it over.
The two officers weren't deliberately targeting Wang Zheng. If it were just Wang Zheng alone, they would have let him pass long ago. However, sensing the intense spiritual energy emanating from Xiao Jin, they couldn't help but feel more apprehensive.
After carefully examining Wang Zheng's identification, they discovered that this young man actually held a higher rank than them. They politely saluted Wang Zheng and then continued to ask:
"Major Wang Zheng, may I ask what's behind you?"
Upon hearing the other party's inquiry, Wang Zheng suddenly realized that it was indeed a misunderstanding caused by Xiao Jin.
I couldn't help but feel that I hadn't thought things through carefully enough and hadn't been steady enough. I must reflect on that next time.
Little Jin seemed to sense the gaze of the other party and felt the aura of the two B-level Awakened Ones, and hid away in fear.
However, after a moment, it seemed to remember that its servant was extremely powerful, even the Demon King was no match for him, so it boldly climbed onto Wang Zheng's shoulder again, swung the branches arrogantly, and took the initiative to provoke him.
This amazing scene immediately stunned the two officers, and their aura instantly rose.
Wang Zheng put his hand to his forehead, looked at his incompetent teammate, and stared at the sky speechlessly.
But what could he do? He had brought this child back with him, and even with tears in his eyes, he had to convey to him that he could protect him from the wind and rain.
So Wang Zheng gently patted Xiao Jin's branches to calm him down, and then nodded apologetically to the two soldiers.
"Wait a mininute."
After saying that, he took out his phone and sent a message to Lao Dang in the military region.
In the message, Wang Zheng gave a brief introduction, saying that he had discovered a special spiritual plant while training outside and wanted to bring it back to Nanjing University to plant, but he was stopped by the air defense guards.
It wasn't that he didn't trust these soldiers, but rather that Wang Zheng didn't want to expose Xiao Jin's existence too much at this moment.
Instead of getting caught up in the question of whether Xiao Jin is a spiritual plant or a mythical beast, and then having to apply for this and that and create more trouble for yourself, it would be better to let the military region help resolve the issue.
Moreover, this plant-like creature is the first of its kind in China, a special new type of creature. If word gets out, it will inevitably cause other trouble.
Especially the Imperial Capital Research Institute, which is curious about everything new...
The old party is also very supportive, or rather, Wang Zheng's influence is indeed quite significant now.
After seeing the brief reply of "received" on their phones, only a dozen seconds later, the two soldiers' communicators rang.
"Special forces, classified mission, proceed with clearance!"
