"Tianquan Sect Disciple Code of Conduct, Tianquan Sect Second-hand Cave Abode Transfer Management Regulations, Tianquan Star Environmental Protection Law, what is this jade slip?" The woman wanted to open the jade slip to view its contents, but was blocked by the restriction on the jade slip, and felt a stinging sensation in her divine sense.
"It must be a cultivation technique, otherwise there wouldn't be such tight restrictions." The woman put down the jade slip, looking at the little boy she had shared so much pleasure with for so long, and felt a dilemma. She really wanted to absorb the boy's nascent soul, but she couldn't ignore the majesty of Tianquan. After all, their sect had five members who had undergone the Tribulation Transcending stage, and it was rumored that their sect leader, Wang Xuanyi, was at the peak of the Tribulation Transcending stage, only one step away from becoming an immortal. Below them were numerous elite soldiers and powerful generals.
Over the years, the woman traveled among the stars and heard many stories of sects being wiped out for killing disciples of the Tianquan Sect. Rumor had it that outside the Tianquan Sect's main gate was a stone plaza with numerous stone tablets, each inscribed with the date and time of the annihilation of a sect or faction for avenging a particular disciple. This was intended to strengthen sect unity and serve as a warning to any outsider.
The woman straightened her clothes and stared blankly at Xu Chen. "If I don't kill him, but if he goes out to seek help from other sects, I'm afraid my Hehuan Sect will be implicated. If I kill him, the Tianquan Sect will investigate later, and I'll be hunted down too." She was torn, unsure of what to do. The more she thought about it, the more frustrated and uneasy she became. She, a dignified late-stage Void Refinement cultivator, was actually hesitant to make a move against a mere Nascent Soul cultivator. A fierce internal struggle raged within her.
Just then, Xu Chen slowly woke up. Looking at himself, completely naked, and the woman staring at him, he felt embarrassed. He reached out and found that his storage bag was gone. He glanced around, hurriedly grabbed the storage bag, took out his clothes, put them on, and then quietly looked at his senior.
"Awake? Little brother, were you feeling good just now?" The woman's expression changed from troubled to showing Xu Chen her charming smile.
"You wouldn't dare kill me, would you?"
"The little brother is very clever, but unfortunately there's no reward for guessing correctly."
"Before entering this valley, I thought you were in the same condition as the person you fought, but I was wrong."
"You mean that bitch who killed my disciple? If she didn't have a lot of ways to protect herself, she would probably be dead by my hand long ago."
"She's a member of the Guardians of the Way, aren't you afraid of retaliation?"
The woman smiled. "The Alliance of Protectors? A bunch of hypocritical rabble. Although my Joyful Union Sect is no match for them, we still have the strength to fight back."
"Once I leave this star, I will not reveal anything about you to the sect."
"You care about this place? Can you tell me your reasons, just so we can have a chat?" The woman looked at Xu Chen gently.
"This star is where I transformed into a mortal."
"I see." The woman nodded, looking at Xu Chen with a gentle expression. "I'm sorry, little brother, I won't be leaving for now, until I kill that bitch."
Xu Chen fell silent again. He couldn't change the woman's mind; he lacked both the strength and the right. Her pursuit of Qin Ziyue here was essentially to avenge her disciple, which was perfectly reasonable.
Just as Xu Chen was at his wit's end, the woman received a telepathic message. After listening to the message, her expression changed drastically. She gave Xu Chen a meaningful look and then slowly said, "Little brother, I'll be leaving soon. Don't miss me too much after I'm gone."
"Changed your mind? Why?"
"Because of you, little brother, you are the first man in my life with whom I have shared such a long period of intimate relations without being killed by me. I don't want to put you in a difficult position." Su Meier smiled, her beautiful eyes fixed on Xu Chen.
Xu Chen was a little confused and felt uncomfortable under the woman's direct gaze. He didn't dare to look at the woman, so he looked towards another part of the valley.
"You're so cute, little brother. I wanted to have one last spiritual and physical union with you, but time is running out. My name is Su Meier. If you miss me, you can come to the Hehuan Sect to find me." Su Meier kissed Xu Chen, looked at him deeply, and then flew into the sky.
Xu Chen watched her leave, tidied up the scene of the fierce battle, shattered the illusion array set up by the woman, and walked out of the valley.
"Colonel!"
"Colonel, are you alright?"
"Colonel!"
The soldiers, who had been stationed there all day, strictly followed Xu Chen's orders and waited in place. When they were hungry, they ate the compressed biscuits they had on them, and when they were thirsty, they took turns fetching water from the stream they had been in before. Finally, Xu Chen reappeared.
"Let's go, everything's alright now." Xu Chen gathered everyone into a line and then headed back. Soon, the group returned to the city. Xu Chen went to the temporary command post to inquire about the progress of the situation.
"Colonel!" "Colonel Xu!"
Xu Chen waved his hand, took out cigarettes and offered them to the two of them, then lit one for himself.
"How did things go?"
"The online processing is nearing completion, as for the city..."
"The situation in the city is quite serious; most citizens are unwilling to cooperate with us to delete the videos," Wang Qiang said helplessly.
Xu Chen exhaled a smoke ring, walked around the office for a while, stopped Wang Qiang from continuing his report, and then took out his phone to call Tang Tiancheng.
"Old Tang."
"How's it going?"
"Mr. Tang, in my opinion, we should remove the personnel. As for the video, we just need to manage the network. Continuing to be on high alert like this will affect the lives of citizens."
"What? What do you think they're doing?" Tang Tiancheng asked in surprise.
“They’ve imposed martial law in the city, Mr. Tang. We’re just saying it’s just a video. We can handle it slowly. After a while, the public will forget about it completely. There’s no need to make such a big fuss.”
"Bullshit! I sent them to investigate aliens, that's why I deployed people there. Why would I need martial law to quell public opinion?"
"Mr. Tang, is it that your orders have been misunderstood by those below?"
"I'm afraid so. Once you've dealt with it, return to Beijing as soon as possible and report back to me."
Xu Chen agreed, put down his phone, and said to the two people in charge, "Remove the security measures and restore normal life. We can deal with the video issue slowly. Once we find out who uploaded it, we will immediately invite them to the police station for a chat. As for the others, we will have our subordinates go to their homes to have a heart-to-heart talk with them. Since there are so many people involved, we should take it even more slowly. I'm going back to Beijing now."
Li Shengli and Wang Qiang nodded.
Xu Chen hurriedly flew towards the capital, but halfway there he suddenly remembered that Ying'er was still on the moon. So, in a flash, he transformed into a streak of light and flew towards the moon.
Half an hour later, he flew to the moon and quickly used his divine sense to search for Ying'er's whereabouts. Coincidentally, he found Ying'er near the Little White Ship.
Just as he was about to carry her on his back, Xu Chen suddenly remembered something.
"I'm already exhausted from traveling such a long distance by myself, carrying someone else on my back would be..."
"You can just drive the Little White back to Earth and then drive it back again," Little White said.
"Alright." Xu Chen stepped forward, picked up Ying'er, put her into the spaceship, and then piloted the spaceship back to Earth. This process was repeated until he parked the spaceship on the moon again, flew back to Earth, and carried Ying'er, who was inside the formation, into the small world. He felt completely drained.
