It's not that it's impossible to send people from different regions to open them up, but rather that all regions are still in the post-war recovery period, and the impact of the old ruins and the mutants has not yet subsided. At this time, it would be quite difficult to allocate more manpower to stop the exile of the mutants, so some regions can only postpone the operation.
However, postponement means uncertainty, so in order to better ensure the smooth progress of the plan, the regional authorities requested that Fu Jiu be exiled.
Chang Le agreed and had no intention of taking advantage of the situation.
Of course, this was a decision unanimously passed at the core meeting of the Dragon faction.
Taking advantage of the chaos at this time would be tantamount to pushing the already conspicuous Dragon Faction into the fire, earning them a reputation for being opportunistic. For District Nine, which was about to usher in a new peak of development, this would be fatal. Moreover, District Nine itself was the district facing the greatest threat from the mutants and the Old Ruins, and it desperately needed the mutants to expel it.
Therefore, in the end, Fu Jiu was exiled at the planned time and place.
The top of the Sky-Mending Tower at the Hanging Sword Lake in Hua'an City.
Even after the calamity of the Shadow of Calamity, the ancient bronze sword still hangs upside down in the pavilion at the top of the Tower of Heaven Mending.
The ancient sword remained unmoved through a thousand years of wind and rain. After being unearthed on the eve of a natural disaster, it only produced three unusual ringing sounds.
The first instance was 51 years before the natural disaster, which was later confirmed to be the time when the first superhuman appeared in the world, but it was not discovered at the time.
The second time was in the year 032 of the Cataclysmic Era, on the eve of the first and largest-scale arrival of extraterrestrial alien species into the world.
The third time was not long ago, when Pluto appeared in the world through the Mosander earthquake.
Now, this ancient bronze sword has been taken down and is held horizontally in someone's hand. The blade trembles slightly, not as a sharp alarm, but as a kind of excited response.
Chang Le handed her body over to Fu Jiu.
Fu Jiu held the sword, lowered his eyes to examine it, his eyes full of interest. In his heart, he said to Chang Le, "The Central Plains civilization is indeed a miracle. This object from more than four thousand years ago actually contains a trace of the Great Dao's fortune."
Fu Jiu shared her senses with Chang Le, allowing her to also perceive that faint aura. After Chang Le sensed it, she understood why this bronze sword could sense danger; the reason was precisely this aura of rules connected to the fortunes of the Central Plains and the world.
Because those protected by the rule of hand strike are often unparalleled geniuses, many people refer to it as "the great destiny of the Dao".
With the help of this ancient sword, which is connected to the fortunes of all parts of the Central Plains, the concept of "Heaven and Earth as One" can be used more effectively.
On May 6, Fu Jiu, the new leader of the Dragon Faction, exerted his power at the Heaven-Mending Tower, simultaneously opening a total of 56 secret realms across nine major regions of the Central Plains, successfully banishing the mutants.
Subsequently, other countries followed this method or adopted other methods to deal with the mutants.
Following this, the international conference revised the regulations concerning mutants and those with mutated abilities, and improved the existing system for cultivating superpowers.
On May 30, after interrogating Cecis Boya and other relevant personnel, based on the information they had gathered, the international coalition, led by the Central Plains, launched a swift and decisive attack, destroying the strongholds of the God-Making Faction scattered around the world and successfully arresting eight Temple Masters and twenty-two subordinate Black and White Kings. Two of them died during the arrest.
Subsequently, after more than a month of investigation, the main high-ranking members of the "deification faction" and those involved in this mutation were sentenced separately. Only a small number of normal lower-level members of the "moderate faction" were released back to their original residences and detained or fined.
Thus, the fusion and pursuit of godhood, which began with the birth of the No. 001 God-Making Faction Laboratory, came to an end with the disappearance of the God-Making Faction. The construction phase of a new cultivation system based on a gradual evolution, centered on the new plan, officially began.
Middle-earth, which proposed new solutions and led the world, undoubtedly became the leader and helmsman of this stage.
Discussions about fusion, Hades, and Chang Le have been overshadowed by the buzz generated by the new proposal.
In the sweltering heat of July, Gu Yujing officially became the new Chief Administrator of the Central Plains, concurrently serving as the Commander-in-Chief of the Nuwa Base. That same month, almost all the major clan leaders underwent a major reshuffle, with fresh blood replacing the old guard.
A meeting was then held to reward those who performed exceptionally well in the series of disasters caused by the Shadow of Calamity. Fu Jiu, who had risen to a level that ordinary people could only dream of, was undoubtedly the greatest contributor and was awarded the highest medal of merit in the world of supernatural beings by both the international community and the Central Plains.
At the same time, the common people also included Fu Jiu, who is undoubtedly the world's number one, in the list of gods and called him "Nine Emperors".
This title also symbolizes the beginning of a new phase.
Then, in August, heartbreaking news arrived:
Gu Lianghan, Shen Cangbai, Wei Kunyu, and Hua Lihan, after their bodies were severely weakened by the stripping away of their original essence, still passed away one after another within three days, even with the most advanced medical care and healing abilities available.
The whole nation mourns.
After the date of the memorial service was set, Luo Xuan informed Chang Le of the time and the invitation.
Logically speaking, as the new leader of the Ninth District, Emperor Fu Jiu should still be required to attend. However, everyone knows that, not to mention that the fate of these people was caused by that person, and the enmity between the two sides is already difficult to explain, even if we put aside the enmity and just talk about etiquette, that person is now someone that no one can control or dares to control. How can he be invited?
But there are always those who stubbornly believe that even gods must follow rules on earth, and in order to show their respect, the invitation was still sent to Chang Le.
Chang Le did not respond.
Luo Xuan and Xue Wuwang did not ask any questions, but Zi Guiti asked her, "Is it because you have a grudge and don't want to see them off, or are you afraid to face their families?"
After all, although Chang Le didn't publicly state that she was indeed responsible for those people's deaths, the combination of past grudges and the investigation results meant that many people actually knew the truth. They also knew perfectly well Chang Le's motives for doing so.
At least Hua Anning claimed to represent the five families of Gu, Chen, Si, Wei, and Hua, and wrote a letter to express gratitude to Fu Jiu for not giving Hades a chance to turn the tables and for successfully killing him. She also expressed her hope to stop dwelling on the past and look forward.
This means that Gu Yujing and others are at least aware of and rationally understand the two reasons behind Chang Le's revenge and his intention to use revenge to cut off Hades' path to advancement. Even if they still feel uncomfortable, it will not affect their ability to prioritize the overall situation while sitting in their respective positions.
In this light, attending the memorial service would have been a more reasonable arrangement, but Chang Le did not respond.
It wasn't until the crows of the Wolf Faction arrived and said that Lu Yanhuai was critically ill that Chang Le, who had been silent all along, suddenly sprang up and disappeared in the blink of an eye.
Chang Le appeared out of thin air in the center of the gray area, startling all the guards and weapons, who immediately took aim. They only breathed a sigh of relief after seeing who it was.
There's no other reason than that this person couldn't be stopped even if they wanted to, and there was no need to stop them anyway.
Yu Chuanxing had anticipated this and was waiting at the door. Upon seeing her, he immediately led the way and hurried ahead.
Looking at the road leading to the central building, Chang Le's tense brows furrowed slightly.
After seeing Lu Yanhuai leisurely lying on a garden lounge chair through the glass window, Chang Le's tense body finally relaxed, though her brows remained furrowed.
