In Shenping tidied up his clothes, checking if there was blood soiling his clothes. He was worried that there was blood soiling his clothes because he had just taken care of the five bodies of the victims of the fight.
It was actually not rightly referred to as a victim because Di Shenping found a suspicious weapon rich in abyssal substances. Substance warned long ago by the Mao state council.
The most shocking event of the century that happened to the wisest man, of course, the news very quickly circulated to all the councils in the underworld.
From then on, Chen's state council decided to bring a magic tool that kept them from abyssal substances.
And all riots and events that occur must be handled by the council that carries the magic tool. One of the elected council members was Di Shenping.
The reason he was chosen was because one month ago, his wife and three children happened to be in a location where a mysterious object made the ocean water gush a few meters high.
And just tonight, while he was on patrol, Di Shenping had to take care of the bodies of the mysterious people.
After discussing with the other council members for three whole hours, all of them decided that the lifeless people were members of a heretical sect.
The Council will not hold the party that killed these five people responsible. If possible, the board would provide assistance to the party.
There were even some members who related to the quarrel between clans that happened a few days ago with the incident tonight.
But there are some who deny. Well, essentially the board is investigating more deeply whether there are people who cover up the actual events or not.
Di Shenping let out a long sigh. Tired adorned his face as the door of his house opened and his beautiful wife's face emerged from behind the door.
"Darling? Why not come in?" said the woman.
"Oh, I'm tidying up my clothes" Di Shenping said. Madam Di understood the meaning behind her words then her gaze demanded an explanation.
Di Shenping let out a long sigh but still told his wife everything that happened. Di Shenping's wife looked at him anxiously.
"Don't worry, I brought this magic tool. Oh, yeah, are the kids still sleeping?" di Shenping's words showed a ring on his little finger.
"still. Those who have slept must be hard to wake up," said his wife laughing.
"Well, I'm afraid their sleeping habits will put their lives at risk as adults" Di Shenping said.
Cultivators live in a harsh world that is required to be always vigilant even in a state of sleep though.
Therefore, Zhi Yuefeng who fell asleep after being given sleeping pills by Xiaohua and Xiaobao, was very frightened.
It could be said that back then Zhi Yuefeng, was really like a baby, weak without any self-defense.
"Just calm down, when the time comes, I'll teach them how to defend themselves.
Now, they are small, let them enjoy the protection of their father and mother" Mrs Di said. Di Shenping nodded in agreement.
Madam Di brought her husband in. They poured down the mist springs and chatted together. They have not spent time alone for a long time.
Di Shenping felt relaxed around his wife and enjoyed the mist spring that was inside his cup.
Di Shenping changed his clothes and moved to chat with his wife in the room. Although he was tired, he did not intend to sleep and preferred to spend his precious time with his wife.
With his cultivation level, at least Di Shenping could not sleep for a few more days. Besides early in the morning, exactly in a few hours, he had to leave again to the council building.
Because there is still much to be investigated including people in the council who hide wisely.
But two hours later, the front door of the house was knocked and Di Shenping got word that there was news of an occult phenomenon.
People were hit with something invisible, disappeared for a moment then appeared lifeless.
Di Shenping advised his wife to always be aware of the circumstances around him and immediately go to the scene.
...
In Shenping arrived at the scene which was located near the turning point. Indeed, this area is very rarely home so crime is more likely to occur here.
Therefore, council members often patrol around turning points. But it seemed that the mysterious creature was so powerful that it could launch its attack in front of the noses of the council members.
Or is there someone who makes the area around the turning point of the operation so that whoever the enemy of the person comes here and releases the mysterious creature?
Who knows. Di Shenping recorded his suspicions in his heart without intending to tell this man he was approaching.
The man was standing by watching the council members who were moving bodies hidden among the foot-bone-high grass.
Some blood spots dyed the grass red and the smell of iron smelled everywhere. Fortunately, there was no wind, the smell of blood remained in this location and did not cause panic for the residents who lived a few kilometers from there.
"Council Di, you've finally come too,"
"Council Li, how's the condition?"
"We're still tracking the mysterious figure with the trail left here. Look, the tracks look like wheels,"
"You're right. Then, have you found that figure?"
"Units 1 through 3 are being dispersed to check if there are similar traces or not. Looks like they'll be reporting soon,"
In Shenping and Council Li chatted without caring about the bodies being transported around them.
Before long, a man dressed in a council uniform came over to the two in a hurry.
"Ah, you've come, how? Got a lead yet?"
"Already! Congratulations.morning, Board In. You two better come with me" said the man, confused about saying good night or good morning. The problem is, now it has changed days, only the sun has not yet risen.
The man brought Di Shenping and Council Li to a turning point, several kilometers towards the exit of the capital.
Di Shenping sensed the existence of a few people and strangely, a fight. There was a strange energy he felt in those people. As he felt on the bodies in the previous location.
"What is fighting on our side?"
"No, we followed your plan to wait and see what really happened,"
"Do you feel it too? That abyssal substance?" said Di Shenping as he looked towards his two comrades. Both colleagues nodded.
Before long, Di Shenping could see the chase action in front of him. But what did the crowd of people dressed in black pursue? Di Shenping turned his head towards the fellow who brought him here.
Di Shenping missed the incident but still put his gaze towards the crowd of people so as not to miss his other opportunity.
"&$(&^$&($^!"
One of them looked like he had been hit by something. That person was airborne for a few seconds in the air, no, his body was like being dragged into something. And then suddenly disappeared.
Di Shenping observed the incident in silence. Similarly, when the person who just disappeared it reappeared in a state of blood and lifeless.
With his extremely powerful eyesight, Di Shenping was able to capture the color of the blood coming out of that suddenly reappearing person, black in color.
"Either why would I even want to encourage the mysterious being who was slaughtering those heretical sect people,"
Black blood, who else if not a member of a cult of a heretic sect. News of people who have abyssal substances and black blood has been circulating among the council.
Everything quiet. Shut up for approving the Li Council's remarks. The three councilors who were watching the scene while running were finally seen by one of the crowd.
"Oh, it looks like we're getting involved in this fight" Di Shenping said.
A few people dressed in black ran towards Di Shenping and his two comrades. A blackish sharp weapon was drawn towards them.
"Everything! Attack!" said Di Shenping's colleague towards the trees and houses not far from there.
"Yes!"
Various shouts rang out, one of them panicked cries of the black-clothed men as they were unaware that they had been watched by the council members.
The fight that initially looked small-scale became a massive fight that took place between the council and members of the cult of heresy.
The fight did not last long because the cult people were tired of being involved in a chase with the mysterious creature.
In Shenping observing the scenery around him, trying to find a mysterious figure that turns out since the council members intervened, it was not seen crashing and kidnapping again. It looks like the creature has left.
The star rug above the sky had already begun to separate and was preparing to set, as well as the bright moon.
The view of the curtain that was being revealed lasted until the original sun rose, but not yet fully revealed the curtains of the star clusters disappeared like swallowed by sunlight.
The people who had just seen it for the first time must have been curious about the cluster of stars that had suddenly disappeared. And that was how Di Shenping felt about the mysterious creature, which he and his partner named the ferocious monster.
...
"Lian'er, we have already brought the last member of the shadow swordsman and the other Xuanwu clan members," Meimei said as he laid himself on the wooden floor then continued, continuing,
"In the meantime they gathered at the Southern Meeting House. I've been heating tea and all that stuff in the kitchen of the North Meeting House,"
Finally after a long time, the Southern Meeting House was used as well. Meimei had the newly rescued people with Zhi Yuefeng waiting at the Southern Meeting House.
This is done because the North Meeting House is often used by children and considering that children are still a little afraid of foreigners.
"Huff, okay. Thank you Mei jiejie, good work. You too young master, are you alright? Just rested one day but you've been holding a sword. Rest," Mu Lian said as she stretched her stiff muscles.
His feet were already trembling standing long over the control of the floats. The dantian felt like it was empty hopping because the chi inside was used continuously.
Actually not empty to plop up either. Mu Lian had only experienced the hard work for the first time. The work required to continue using chi as it is today.
"Thank you, once again thank you for helping us save our comrades!" brother Chao said repeatedly bowing to say thank you then approached Zhi Yuefeng.
Zhi Yuefeng had just returned with Meimei from the Southern Meeting House. He was still standing at the entrance of the control room when Mu Lian told him to rest.
"Young master, sit down I will bring you some water to drink," Brother Chao said as he pulled Zhi Yuefeng over to sit down but Zhi Yuefeng was unmoved.
Zhi Yuefeng shook his head, he was about to follow Brother Chao to the Southern Meeting House. Eventually, Mu Lian and Meimei were left alone in the control room.
"Aish, very tired," said Mu Lian lying beside Meimei after landing on the edge of the pool.
"Hehe, what a good night, don't you think?" meimei said then continued,
"Oh yeah, what's the name of the movement that can make such a sharp cornering cart?"
"Oh, it's called a drift. The special steps that riders take, with their ability, they take the car through sharp corners" Mu Lian said with a smile.
Mu Lian felt proud of herself for having successfully learned the drift from her driver.
Although Mu Lian could only see him the last time on the night of the accident, Mu Lian still remembered that person in the depths of her heart like her own uncle.
Mu Lian dissolved in her nostalgia until she had unknowingly fallen asleep. When I woke up, Meimei was approaching him while carrying a tray filled with food.
"Huh, Mei jiejie? When's cooking?" mu Lian said rubbing both her eyes.
"You're this. I woke you up to go to breakfast but didn't wake up either so yeah, I brought it," Meimei smiled.
"Hehe, thank you," said Mu Lian immediately devouring everything Meimei provided.
Mu Lian heard that Meiemei had cooked for the guests of the Xuanwu clan with the help of Xiaohua and Xiaojia.
Meimei had also had Xiaohua and Xiaobao give first aid using the concocted medicine available at Mu Haocun's residence.
While waiting for Mu Lian to wake up, All the members of the Xuanwu clan underwent treatment in the Southern Care Building.
"Xiaohua looked extremely frightened when he saw people dressed in black. It was fortunate that the child was strong and could eventually be persuaded. I have also made it clear that they are not bad people and come from a kind family" Meimei said.
Mu Lian nodded. Trauma is indeed a problem that cannot be simply cured, maybe over time, children can overcome their fears.
From Meimei's explanation, there were 10 shadow warriors and 10 ordinary members of the Xuanwu clan who had been saved.
And the one with the most serious injuries was the member of the shadow swordsman. Meimei said they were in desperate need of purification because they were also contaminated with abyssal substances.
"Ah, we should-"
THE DUAR!
Suddenly a loud voice resounded from outside the control room. Mu Lian put down her bowl then followed Meimei to check what sound it was.
