"The captain said there are protective animals nearby, so let’s switch the engine. But I’ve heard that it seems they’re nearing the Dragon King’s Territory, and they’ve activated the silent backup engine."
Before she could say anything, the hair all over her body began to bristle, sensing a pressure approaching. Of course, it wasn’t directed at her, but there was so creature with a heavy presence coming near.
She walked to the side of the boat and sharply glimpsed Wen Yan stepping into the water, where sothing seed to be receiving Wen Yan.
In the hazy distance, she could still see sothing enormous erging, but a re glimpse felt like an illusion.
Standing on the boat, she looked at the shore of Virtue City, thinking that what she knew might be sowhat outdated; this place was completely different from what she knew.
"Mom, just buy a house here. Let’s cancel the previous one, I’ll give you all my savings." Su Mu said firmly.
"You don’t need to add your little savings..." Su Mu’s mother didn’t say anything more.
On the other side, Wen Yan entered the water and not only saw the Big Grass Carp waiting, but also saw King Guilong strolling around.
"In broad daylight, aren’t you afraid of being seen?"
"It’s really not my fault!" King Guilong quickly denied, "The Scorching Sun Departnt asked to do it."
"Huh? What’s going on?"
"The people from the Scorching Sun Departnt gave so food, saying it’s not good to be cooped up every day. West River is so big, it’s better to co out occasionally.
I said I wouldn’t go out, and they stopped persuading and just requested I co out for a stroll once in a while."
Wen Yan pondered, thinking about the things he heard last ti. It seed that with the Spiritual Qi Resurgence, indeed there’s a plan, gradually laying the groundwork. Judging by the Scorching Sun Departnt’s style, there’d probably be several phases.
Now whenever sothing happens, they find soone to take the bla, everything can be rationalized.
If it can’t be explained, then they offer a possibility, leave it hanging. After a few days, once the heat is gone, no one pays attention anymore.
But soon there might be so things that won’t be acknowledged nor denied, leaving people to guess.
If they guess in the wrong direction or take the topic off track, then they’d get blocked.
Tomorrow, perhaps soone locally would say they saw a Divine Dragon in the West River.
Once sustained for a few more years, they might begin to acknowledge so things, gradually progressing.
Wen Yan himself felt sothing, rembering how ghost novels were easily banned a few years ago.
But this year, many spiritual-thed novels with apparently high stakes weren’t banned.
Moreover, a recently released movie received high praise as it didn’t end with any illusion or hypnosis kind of ending.
Though that movie’s tone wasn’t horror, the ghost wasn’t an illusion, which was quite a clear signal.
Wen Yan recalled how people from different regions of the Scorching Sun Departnt seed very busy, constantly overwheld, and incidents gradually increasing. Judging by this year’s sudden frantic progress, within a few years, it might be impossible to hide anymore.
However, these grand-scale matters weren’t much related to him, he focused on his own tasks.
Had a chat with King Guilong; King Guilong’s recovery was going well, lately, he’s seen people on the shore worshiping him, thus he’s in a good mood.
Wen Yan painted a grand picture of being the Water God, it’s barely been a while, the results were already evident, the local waters have beco much safer, now one might even find it difficult to perish in the river.
First, one would have to handle the few Water Demons in the water.
After talking with King Guilong underwater, Wen Yan found a place to get ashore.
Once ashore, he took out his phone and checked the Black Box.
"How’s the monitoring result?"
"No match found for now, the number of people wearing masks in winter has increased to a non-negligible proportion. The target might be wearing a mask."
Wen Yan paused; it hadn’t occurred to him before, if the Great Demon possessed soone and wanted to escape, simply wearing a big mask would thwart facial monitoring.
"Just keep an eye on people exhibiting similar symptoms of losing their minds."
After conversing with Su Mu, the spectrum he constructed in his mind beca clearer.
Wasn’t that person wanting to return to where he ca from via the portal in the mountains?
This ti, he was headed towards the mountains for the portal, wasn’t he?
In that case, let’s give him a chance to go.
The Ye Clan’s curse had dissipated, and the keys hidden within the Ye Clan’s bloodline were gone.
In theory, it only related to the opening of that portal and no longer pertained to the Ye Clan.
Wen Yan closed his eyes, after pondering for a long ti, went ho to continue practicing.
After a few hours of cultivation, he sent Su Mu a ssage to confirm whether he was available to take a call.
Then he called Su Mu, after talking for over ten minutes, Wen Yan borrowed the Nether Path to arrive at the Temple of Mazu Empress.
After paying respects to Mazu Empress, he spoke quietly.
"Empress, I’m doing all this on your behalf, I trust you, don’t let trust the wrong person.
So, could you offer so advice?
Of course, if you think brainstorming would be better, asking other big shots, then I believe you’re right too."
Wen Yan mumbled for quite so ti, mainly thick-skinned.
He randomly asked other big shots, they might not even pay attention to him.
