However.
The scene before my eyes wasn't accompanied by sound, but by a smile!
A normal person, no matter how happy, will have subtle variations in their smile depending on what they're saying, but this person's smile was impossibly rigid, not changing even a bit from start to end.
What's more terrifying.
This person seed unaware of it!
So, Su Qi casually asked, "Since last night... have you encountered anything unusual?"
Upon hearing this, the nearby Transcendent maintaining order was startled and hurriedly approached.
Afraid that his oversight may have allowed sothing eerie to lurk among the crowd, but before he could speak, Pei Jing's gaze stopped him.
anwhile.
The slightly chubby man seed to realize sothing was amiss and quickly defended himself, "No... nothing, last night, the two Lords displayed their power and drove away all the eerie ones. I haven't slept so soundly for a long ti. It's all thanks to the two Lords!"
However, in Su Qi's eyes.
This person's smile was harder to look at than a crying face—too stiff!
But Su Qi didn't point out his abnormality, instead, he patiently asked, "No need to be afraid, I'm just casually asking. Think carefully, after all, we're still here. If there's anything unusual, we can help you deal with it."
Upon hearing this.
The slightly chubby man's body shook.
What he said was right, with the two Destruction-level Transcendents by his side, if he'd really co upon sothing ominous, there'd at least be soone to deal with it.
If there's really an unnoticed risk, wouldn't he have to face it alone in the future?
So he imdiately started racking his brain.
And recounted everything from last night to now in one go. Even going to the bathroom and suddenly running out of water—he explained ticulously, fearing he'd omit anything.
Su Qi listened while analyzing.
Not detecting anything out of the ordinary.
He then asked again, "Wasn't there anything that hadn't happened before, but suddenly happened last night?"
"Well..." The slightly chubby man's tone paused, then he patted his forehead as if he suddenly thought of sothing.
"I had a dream, not sure if it matters?"
"What kind of dream?"
"I dread of disasters retreating, Fierce Beasts being repelled, everyone living peacefully, that sweet dream made wake up with a smile, haha."
Originally, it was a very ordinary dream, but paired with the stiff smile on the man's face, Su Qi felt goosebumps all over.
anwhile.
In the crowd, many people started saying, "What a coincidence, I dread the sa dream too!"
"Haha, could it be that we're all in sync, dreaming the sa dream?"
"There's no synchronization, it's just that everyone's been under intense ntal strain recently, and finally, after the two Lords drove away all the eerie ones, everyone's body and mind relaxed. It's just natural to have such dreams now."
However, while everyone was busy discussing.
Su Qi was pondering.
Having sweet dreams is not unusual, waking up smiling is not unusual, what's unusual is...
You've been smiling until now, and seemingly can't stop!
Then, Su Qi tentatively asked, "Can you... try to restrain the smile for a mont?"
The slightly chubby man looked a bit baffled, "Am I smiling? Am I smiling?"
While speaking, he looked around at the crowd curiously; he wouldn't have said it better off, but once he did, many people were instantly scared and stepped back.
Even the Transcendent maintaining order couldn't help but tense his body, with Extraordinary Aura quietly rising.
Co on!
Smiling so brightly, yet claiming not to be smiling!
At this point, seeing the situation, the chubby man finally started to panic, continuously rubbing his face with his hands, and when he felt his mouth corners raised high, almost scared into paralysis, hurriedly took out his phone for a selfie.
Upon seeing the eerie smile on his own face, he couldn't help but shiver, exclaiming in horror, "What's happened to , Lord Su, Lord Pei, please help !"
"Don't panic."
"With us here, it'll be fine," Su Qi comforted him briefly, then turned his gaze to Pei Jing.
In response.
Pei Jing couldn't discern what was going on.
After all, in terms of speech and thought, this person was no different from anyone else, except for his expression, which is why he hadn't noticed it before.
However, for a brief mont, he couldn't determine whether this person was affected by Mysterious Power or was being invaded by sothing eerie.
If it were the forr, just a rest and he'll be fine; if it's the latter, that's frightening.
Because.
It seems like there are quite a few people like this.
Sure enough, in the crowd, many citizens noticed people around them with eerie smiles on their faces, so were friends, so were family.
But at this mont, anxiously, they backed away, leaving those with eerie smiles in an even more distinctive position.
"Everyone stay calm."
"Have you all had the sa dream?" Su Qi asked with a slightly commanding tone, this ti using Spiritual Power to keep the scene under control.
Due to Su Qi's spiritual intimidation, no chaos ensued.
All the citizens with eerie smiles stood there and unanimously nodded.
Upon hearing this.
Su Qi's gaze sharpened, his body radiating golden light, the Power of Purification surged like tides over those citizens with eerie smiles.
The next mont.
An unbelievable scene unfolded.
The Light of Purification passed through them directly, seemingly unimpeded.
These people, bathed in the Light of Purification, still maintained the eerie smile.
"Hmm?"
"Even the Light of Purification is ineffective, doesn't this an these people don't carry any Mysterious Power?"
At this point, Su Qi felt quite troubled.
If this issue isn't resolved, during the Great Migration, the consequences could be dire, and who knows if this effect could reach the Ninth District.
Su Qi contemplated slightly.
Then inford Xia Shengxuan about the situation, asking him to compile a list of citizens who had the dream of retreating disasters, and to isolate them.
Actions were swift.
This is the most critical mont of the Great Migration, and no Transcendent dares drop the ball, exerting full power as they patrol the city.
Soon.
The count was compiled.
Nearly half of the city had the sweet dream of retreating disasters, living peacefully!
anwhile.
They also discovered that so who hadn't had this dream seed to also adopt the eerie smile, indicating the smile is contagious!
