Su Qi detected the humility in the other’s words and gladly accepted.
Under Lu Xiaohan’s command, a makeshift tent was quickly set up on the hillside at the edge of the battlefield, with prepared delicacies and wine spread out.
The battlefield lay in ruins.
Massive figures hovered above the sky.
In such an atmosphere, savoring the food quietly made Xiaoyan feel an uncanny sensation of a God King dining, served by deities.
She couldn’t help but sneak a glance at Su Qi, sitting at the head seat.
Honestly, she never imagined before that soone of a similar age to them could determine the fate of an entire city.
As everyone enjoyed the food, their tense mood seed to ease.
Days of continuous battle had exhausted them physically, but more so ntally.
"How is the city’s migration progressing?" Su Qi asked suddenly.
Imdiately.
Lu Xiaohan sat up straight and replied, "The first phase has migrated a third of the population. If all goes well, they should reach the Ninth District by now. Once the accompanying Transcendents return, the rest should migrate in one sweep."
Su Qi nodded and then said, "There’s no need to wait for their return, the Ninth District will send Transcendents over to assist."
"The Ninth District?"
"We sent out feelers to connect with the Transcendents over there, and we haven’t heard back yet. We are already very grateful that the Ninth District is willing to take in our people, as for sending Transcendents..." Lu Xiaohan linked the ntion of the Ninth District to rumors about its cleaning company being closely related to the Evolution Divine Teaching Conservative Faction.
Su Qi was confident in Principal Pei and others, and stated with certainty, "Don’t worry, the Ninth District won’t stand idly by."
"Look, the one next to you is the President of the Extraordinary Guild of the Ninth District."
Hearing this, not only Lu Xiaohan but also Fan Shixing couldn’t help but look towards Xia Shengxuan.
And Xia Shengxuan nodded slightly.
Initially, Su Qi hadn’t planned to reveal Elder Xia’s identity, worried it would draw the Ninth District into the spotlight of supernatural forces too early. Although the Ninth District was in a thriving stage, its strength was still relatively weak.
However, given the current situation.
Fan Shixing and Xiaoyan were already slated as important mbers of the cleaning company by Su Qi, and once the two large districts rged into one, with Lu Xiaohan’s abilities, she would also be a high-level figure within the Ninth District. There was no need to conceal this any longer.
Discovering Xia Shengxuan’s identity, Lu Xiaohan’s eyes lit up.
The President of the Extraordinary Guild of the Ninth District already being here was enough to prove the relationship between that ancient force and the Ninth District.
"I’m sorry, I had heard about so of You Chong’s actions before. If we could do it again, we should have chosen to cooperate with you," Lu Xiaohan said solemnly, worried her previous connections with You Chong would cause grievances.
"No problem, those are things of the past."
For this, Su Qi did not mind.
In a world struggling for survival, choosing to cooperate with the Evolution Divine Teachings is understandable. He would not demand that everyone make decisions that are perfectly flawless.
Moreover.
The Thirteenth District’s Evolution Divine Teachings outpost had not done substantial damage to the Ninth District.
"By the way, in the city, have any of those strange phenona shown any unusual changes?" Su Qi glanced at the massive figures in the sky.
After learning the other’s identity, Lu Xiaohan’s attitude obviously changed, adopting a more humble deanor: "No unusual changes have been found for now. We’ve been focusing most of our energy on the great migration and have not paid much attention to these strange phenona."
Su Qi understood: "Alright, if there are any special mutations, I hope you can gather more information on that front. No need to go out of your way, just put the word out for the public to keep a watch during their daily activities."
"Got it."
After the al, Lu Xiaohan left Black Water Marsh with Su Qi’s instructions.
By this ti, she had sowhat assud the role of a subordinate.
It was an experience she hadn’t had before; it felt nice to have soone to rely on.
At least, it provided a strong sense of security.
Because of this, she looked forward even more to what life in the Ninth District would be like once she joined.
"You’re still trying to find the key to the world fusion. It seems you’re worried about the process affecting a larger area," Xia Shengxuan realized Su Qi’s concern and couldn’t help but warn him: "The key to triggering the fusion of two worlds is far from ordinary; it likely contains imnse danger."
"If possible, try not to touch it."
Su Qi nodded: "Yeah, I won’t act recklessly."
"I’m just trying to gather as much information as possible during this ti, just in case."
"If this world fusion process could be concluded earlier, that would naturally be better."
At this mont.
The anomalies within the city continued.
So places had beco terrifying, while others remained relatively calm.
As a result, the populace had to move frequently.
Even if so anomalies hadn’t shown their fangs yet, who would want to stay surrounded by strange phenona?
"Hello, is this the Security Bureau?"
"Help! My house is haunted, you need to co quickly!"
At this point, the Security Bureau received a distress call. Such incidents were common for them, but most of the Security Bureau’s Transcendents had been dispatched to escort the populace to the Ninth District, leaving them severely understaffed. Unless it’s extrely urgent, they usually focus on calming people down.
"Miss, please don’t panic just yet."
"Could you describe the strange events you’ve encountered? Anomalies are everywhere now. If your life is not in imdiate danger, we hope you can stay calm and wait for the next migration wave."
On the other side of the phone, a girl’s voice was extrely flustered: "Everyone else in my entire building is gone. Could they have left without telling us?"
"Also, this building feels like a maze, I can’t find my way out!"
"What’s your address?" The Security Bureau operator furrowed their brow, thinking such newly reported anomalies might need docuntation, as the City Lord’s Mansion had issued directives to report anomalies due to potential safety concerns.
"Sunshine Garden District, Building 18, unit 412. Please hurry!"
The operator noted the address and sent soone over.
When the two Security Bureau officers arrived at Sunshine Garden District, they found the place bustling with people.
Completely different from what was described on the phone.
This prompted one of the officers to internally curse: "Even now, people are pulling pranks!"
They arrived at building 18, unit 412, ntioned in the call.
Looking at the empty room, they imdiately called back: "Did you give us the wrong address? I’m already here, and all your neighbors are present. Where are you?"
"I’m at ho!"
"In your living room, is there a family portrait of three people hanging on the wall?"
"Yes..."
The woman who had called to report glanced at the family portrait on the wall, and suddenly, a chill ran down her spine.
