Huangpu Xin hadn't even had time to marvel at the mysterious methods of the immortal, when suddenly, from a great distance, a loud shout was heard: "Kid! Wake up, wake up!"
The sound made Huangpu Xin's head ache, and the royal palace, the altar, and the city all collapsed one by one, leaving a vast expanse of whiteness between heaven and earth.
Then Huangpu Xin opened his eyes.
In front of him was an anxious girl and a big man roaring like a lion, next to them was a middle-aged man in a frown.
"I... What just happened?" Huangpu Xin looked puzzled.
"You fainted halfway up those steps, it scared me to death. Are you okay?" Wang Tingyu asked with concern.
Cao Mang pushed her aside and urgently asked, "Did you go in? What happened?"
Huangpu Xin pulled out a yellow paper, hesitated for a moment, and then fidgeted to take out a disc, saying, "Is there any change in my body? I encountered a strange monster just now when I went in, and I only had time to grab this disc before the monster blew me away..."
Cao Mang took the round plate with a frown and asked, "What else? Did you see anyone?"
Huangpu Xin shook his head and said, "Oh, right, there was an old man who went to pick up the yellow paper on me, and he was also blown away, and that old man slowly became blurry and disappeared!"
Cao Mang frowned and asked insistently, "Are you sure you haven't missed anything?"
Huangpu Xin described in detail the black and white Kunyu City inside, and finally said, "Nothing else happened, I've explained everything in detail. And the last exploding monster and old man are both in the Wang Family Mansion."
Cao Mang He relaxed his brows, carefully examined the "bamboo slips" in his hand, then nodded and put both items into his arms.
Huangpu Xin said, "I have fulfilled my part, I hope you won't break your promise."
"Our promise is contractual, and the contract is still in effect. I trust that you won't lie. The medicine you need will take some time to collect, but only the first batch is free. The subsequent ones will be charged at the regular price. Is that okay?" Cao Mang said casually.
Huangpu Xin nodded and glanced at Zhou Dian beside him, thinking to himself that there must be a powerful backer for Cao Mang to not resort to killing and silencing. I don't believe that this mysterious organization hasn't found a way around the contract.
Sigh, how did the old man manage to make me bypass the contract? Just now, I clearly lied without triggering the contract...
The Zhou Dian saw everything and said, "If there's nothing else, I'll take this little brother with me. I hope you can abide by the contract."
Cao Mang looked down at the little girl in front of him and said, "Don't worry, I won't make things difficult for an insignificant junior. Besides, the Bronze Command Tokens on her are no longer useful to us. I will send her to a safe place far away from here, and what happens next is not my concern."
Huangpu Xin nodded and asked, "How can I contact you?"
"Cao Mang pulled out a piece of mysterious iron token from somewhere and threw it to Huangpu Xin, saying, 'Let The Secret Pavilion pass the message to me, and it can be activated by infusing spiritual stones.'
Huangpu Xin took a glance at it. The token, made of mysterious iron, had a kneeling figure in the center, seemingly holding something like a scroll in its hands, with a sky full of dark clouds overhead."
The back of the token is engraved with a string of numbers: 845391.
Huangpu Xin secretly complained in his heart, isn't this just a landline? And there's a transfer company...
"The Great Emperor's Realm is no longer accessible, but your father's current hope is definitely for you to leave here in time. My promise is considered half fulfilled. When you arrive in a new place, it's best to be patient and endure. There will be a day to come back." Huangpu Xin patted Wang Tingyu's shoulder and comforted him.
Wang Tingyu seemed a little flustered, looked at Cao Mang with fear, and then handed a silver token of The Secret Pavilion to Huangpu Xin.
Cao Mang couldn't help but curse, "Damn rich second generation..."
The two of them ignored him, Wang Tingyu just nodded to show that he understood.
"Let's go, hold on tight," Zhou Dian suddenly spoke.
Huangpu Xin didn't react in time and was suddenly caught under the arm. Instinctively, he grabbed Zhou Dian's belt.
Just a slight sway, and the surrounding scenery quickly recedes. Amidst the dazzling spectacle, there is no gust of wind blowing. Upon closer observation, one can see an oval-shaped white light enveloping the two individuals.
In the distance, the sun gradually rises, casting its light on Huangpu Xin's face.
At the time when the sun was three poles high, Zhou Dian stopped, no, his speed slowed down.
Huangpu Xin counted his heartbeats, but after half an incense stick had passed, he didn't know where he was.
It seems that he saw his confusion, Zhou Dian said, "It's the distance of two cities from Kunyu City. We'll pick someone up first, then continue on our way."
Huangpu Xin nodded. He wasn't interested in other people's affairs and just asked, "Where are we? Where are you planning to take me?"
Zhou Dian said, "This place is called Zhangyu City, a bustling area with a port called Moon Harbor nearby."
"Moon Harbor? Which river is the port on?"
"On the Hai River? Oh, you are a foreigner, not familiar for the first time," Zhou Dian just realized.
Just as I was about to explain in detail, I was interrupted by the sound of a distant whistle and the noise of people.
Originally, between the two of them, just a few words had already brought them outside the city.
Huangpu Xin looked into the distance and saw that this city was different from Kunyu City. It didn't have traditional city walls, only a semi-transparent cover enveloping the entire city.
The main city is surrounded by several fortress-like buildings, each more than ten times larger, almost one-tenth the size of the city.
Zhou Dian descended from the clouds and set down Huangpu Xin, then said, "This is Zhangyu City, also known as Octopus City, because its defensive array is so mysterious."
Huangpu Xin raised an eyebrow and said, "Could it be that the formation and the octopus are the same?"
Zhou Dian used an illusion to hide the imperial robe and transformed into the appearance of a Confucian scholar with a headscarf, then nodded and said, "The main city and the surrounding satellite cities complement each other. When the enemy attacks, several of us form a unified whole, connecting the formations on the official road, like an octopus, capable of both offense and defense."
It seems that just remembered, Zhou Dian looked at the distant city guard and said, "By the way, remember to call me Zhou Gong later, never call me by my real name."
Huangpu Xin picked up his sword to indicate understanding, disguising oneself, understood, understood.
Speaking of it, since I took a trip to a seemingly real and illusory little world, my erosion level has always been at 70%.
Originally, Huangpu Xin thought it was because of his soul entering, but after coming out, it's still at 70% after so long.
It looks like he really was immobilized. The cheap master is quite nice, and he easily solved a big problem. But now I don't have any other means of self-defense, so it's better not to use force for now. Who knows if using it will break the spell left by the old man, and then Huangpu Xin will be paralyzed on the spot.
"Ah, but I still have to fulfill Zhou Dian's request. After all, he saved me, and besides, I can't beat him." Huangpu Xin felt a pang in his heart.
Huh? Wait a minute...
If my body becomes paralyzed, will it affect another body?
Huangpu Xin suddenly has an impulse to try to die.
