Um!?
The previously listless crowd instantly perked up, as if withered trees had come back to life and old trees had sprouted new buds, and they all perked up.
"Since the captain has said so, then I can rest assured."
"Hehe, with Brother Xiu here, no surprises, hiss..." Yang Ming, relying on his strong physique, smoked a whole cigarette in one gulp.
He fought for a day and a night, which meant he hadn't smoked a single cigarette for a whole day and night, and he was really pent up.
Just as everyone was relaxing, Fang Xiu's phone suddenly rang.
He took out his phone and saw that the caller ID showed it was the minister.
"Fang Xiu, something has happened. The West has been completely overrun and occupied by the supernatural. Not only that, but all the countries surrounding Xia have also fallen."
"Currently, only a few survivors remain in each country, hiding in cities and using the terrain and unpredictable guerrilla tactics," the minister said gravely.
"Okay, I understand," Fang Xiu replied calmly.
This situation was within his expectations. Even the strongest Xia Kingdom almost couldn't block the space node, let alone other countries. It was only a matter of time before they fell.
However, Fang Xiu did not expect that the fall would be so fast. In his mind, it would not fall until at least the first day of the apocalypse. Now, the omens of the apocalypse alone had wiped them all out.
The invasion from the other side was far more terrifying than he had imagined.
"Fang Xiu, I have already sent people to the border. Once the strange creatures have taken over the world, they will surely attack Xia Kingdom from all directions. This won't be long. What are your plans?"
"wait."
"wait!?"
“That’s right, we just need to wait quietly. I’ve said it before, as long as I am in charge of Xia, it will not perish.”
The minister remained silent for a moment, then finally said in a deep voice, "Okay."
The call was then disconnected.
"You all stay here and don't move. I'm going out for a bit. Fatty, come with me."
After saying that, Fang Xiu left with the fat man.
"Hugh, where are we going? Are we going to get some secret weapon?"
"Go to the burial site."
"Okay."
Whoosh!
With a flash of white light, Fang Xiu and the fat man vanished without a trace. When they reappeared, they were already at the burial ground.
A gloomy sky, a desolate land, and thousands of Taotie, like divine mountains, freely capture the eerie creatures flying in the sky.
"Huh, the burial ground hasn't changed at all!" The fat man was immediately surprised. All the spatial nodes had anomalies, but the burial ground was completely unaffected, and there was no need to send anyone to suppress it.
"Fortunately, the burial site is fine, otherwise headquarters really wouldn't have had the manpower to suppress three spatial nodes at the same time," the fat man said with lingering fear.
Fang Xiu ignored him and instead looked into the void of the burial ground, his gaze piercing through the endless void and landing on the golden jade seal.
A five-clawed golden dragon roamed around the jade seal, suppressing the burial site.
As expected of the Imperial Seal of the State, it is so powerful. Even when the other side invaded and all the space nodes in the world went out of control, the burial ground suppressed by the Imperial Seal of the State remained unharmed.
However, why didn't the Xuanyuan Sword, which was of the same level as the Imperial Seal of the State, demonstrate such great power?
After pondering for a moment, Fang Xiu decided to ask the Kunlun Maggot.
At this moment, the Kunlun maggot was happily building with blocks when it was suddenly disturbed by Fang Xiu. Although it was dissatisfied, it dared not be negligent in the slightest.
"My lord, it's because the Imperial Seal and the Xuanyuan Sword have different functions. The Imperial Seal's power is suppression, while the Xuanyuan Sword is for killing. The strange creatures of the other side are endless. Even the ancient immortals and gods couldn't do it, so people today certainly can't either... Of course, I mean, apart from you, my lord, with your power, you certainly can..."
"Alright, you can get lost now."
"Alright, thank you for granting me permission to leave, Your Majesty. This old servant will leave now."
As it spoke, the Kunlun maggot's consciousness actually started rolling around.
Fang Xiu seemed to be deep in thought. Suppress?
He vaguely had an idea for how to counter the invasion from the other side. Admittedly, the strange creatures could not be completely eliminated, at least not now. Therefore, the only way to save the Xia Kingdom was to suppress them, just like the Imperial Seal of the State.
It's like saving a leaky boat; the best way is to plug the hole in the hull.
"Fatty, teleport these Taotie to the outside world."
"Okay, Brother Xiu."
The fat man got busy. Thousands of Taotie were a considerable fighting force. With their addition, the Xia Kingdom could be relieved of a lot of pressure.
Before long, with Fatty's repeated teleportations, over a thousand Taotie had been transported to the real world. Thus, all of Fang Xiu's tens of thousands of Taotie had joined the battle.
"Fatty, go to the West."
"Huff... So tired, Brother Xiu," the fat man mumbled, it was unclear whether he meant "good" or "so tired."
However, at this point, the fat man had become a completely pale fat man, his face was frighteningly white, as if 1000cc of blood had been drained from him, and his lips were purple, clearly indicating that he had overexerted himself.
Whoosh!
A flash of white light appeared, and Fang Xiu and the fat man appeared in the west.
Upon arriving at the location, the fat man was instantly startled, hardly believing what he was seeing.
"The sky...the sky!?"
At this moment, the western sky was shattered like a mirror, with large chunks of azure falling onto the earth, shattering with a crash, turning into a patch of light, and disappearing without a trace.
Behind the sky lay a chilling darkness, like a cosmic abyss, with endless, eerie phenomena pouring out like rain.
This scene did not surprise Fang Xiu, because he had already learned of the tragic situation in the West through his mirror image.
After I left, the single mirror image kept summoning Taotie, which was not enough to stop the crack from expanding. The crack deep in the spatial node continued to expand, eventually leading to the collapse of the entire spatial node.
After the collapse, the outward manifestation was that the sky seemed to have been punched with a huge hole, and as time went by, strange things rushed out one after another, the hole in the sky grew bigger and bigger, and then it broke apart.
"Fatty, transfer the Taotie from the West to the Xia Kingdom."
There are still thousands of Taotie in the western space node, but now, with the destruction of the space node, they have also reached the outside world.
