"Does the Peace Finance Building have any connection to the Xuanxian Continent?"
At this mont, Li Shaoqing, hovering mid-air, looked in the direction of the streak of light. When he saw the light land in soone’s hand, it imdiately caught his attention.
Moreover, for so reason, that figure felt vaguely familiar.
However, the energy field surrounding that person was too powerful, distorting the surroundings and making it impossible to see clearly. But, it was undeniable that they were definitely a formidable entity, standing like a beacon, drawing cosmic energy even in broad daylight.
"And that building, I rember it was once the ho of that Li Yi." As an Evolver, Li Shaoqing had a photographic mory, and past mories instantly surfaced in his mind.
He pondered briefly.
"You all head back first; I’ll go take a look." Li Shaoqing said and then flew directly toward the Peace Finance Building.
The closer he got, the more alard he beca.
Even though he had the power to contend with Great Demons, he still felt a strange fear envelop him upon nearing the top of the building, raising his hackles and making him instinctively want to retreat.
This indicated that the person inside was not only powerful but also of a life level far above his own.
"When did Tianchang City have such a terrifying figure? Could it be related to that group outside the city?" At this mont, Li Shaoqing hesitated, feeling sowhat reluctant to approach, instinctively slowing down.
However, the indistinct figure inside the building seed to notice him, a gaze cast in his direction, followed by a familiar voice: "Li Shaoqing, we’re all familiar faces here, why don’t you co over and have a sit?"
Li Yi knew the other party was attracted by the mana emitted by Cang Erzi.
This also proved that Li Shaoqing was indeed devotedly protecting Tianchang City after returning to Earth. After all, this city was not just Li Yi’s hotown but also his.
Bound to one’s roots, the sentint of protecting one’s holand is ingrained in every Earthling.
"Li Yi, it really is you." Li Shaoqing was astonished but also relieved.
Because they were truly familiar with each other, having cooperated in Tianchang City back when they were both still weak.
"Who else could it be, this is my ho; I couldn’t let soone else take it over." Li Yi said with a smile.
Li Shaoqing hesitantly flew inside, passing straight through the glass, ignoring the barriers, and appeared inside the room.
"Incredible, Li Yi, after just a few years, your cultivation has beco so formidable."
He was most shocked by Li Yi’s strength.
Back then, he invited a group to leave across borders, constantly working hard in cultivation, and his own strength had also progressed rapidly. However, compared to Li Yi now, he felt vastly inferior.
"You must have left Earth during cross-border travels, missing many opportunities; otherwise, with your potential, you could have excelled further." Li Yi said with a smile.
Li Shaoqing imdiately sighed, "After I entered the Golden Academy and left Earth for focused cultivation, who would have thought so much would change. Upon returning, Earth beca unrecognizable, but thankfully Tianchang City remains, or I wouldn’t know where to go."
"Changes on Earth happen daily, even I don’t recognize it after being away for a few months, let alone you. However, you’re also lucky to have avoided several natural disasters." Li Yi said.
Li Shaoqing said, "If I had known beforehand, I would have given up on crossing borders. However, as vice president of the Cultivator Association, I was bearing many people’s expectations and had to quickly take them across borders to safer places."
"I understand." Li Yi nodded.
At that ti, every potential Evolver had a large group supporting them, all to gamble on a future; he was the sa. Back then, Lv Jue, Kong Sheng, and Zhao Xiaoxiao also invested in him, right?
And Li Yi did not let them down, taking them and their families to the Four Seas and Eight Continents for safety, fulfilling the promise he made then.
Li Shaoqing said, "Li Yi, you should know more about the current situation on Earth than I do with your power, could you tell about it? Recently, there have been constant tremors, and I’ve felt the terrifying aura of Demon Kings and True Immortals. Has a great battle erupted?"
Li Yi was sowhat surprised, "I didn’t expect your information to be so outdated?"
"There’s no helping it, Tianchang City has signal outages, nearby cities have suffered destruction, and although I’ve managed to contact the survival base, they are unwilling to disclose much information to and intentionally block so things." Li Shaoqing said helplessly.
"That’s because the survival base prepared to cross borders and leave Earth a while ago, thus blocking external communication. The major battle seven days ago was impactful, but it’s over now; many formidable enemies invading Earth have retreated. I believe many cities will soon be rebuilt." Li Yi said, "If you want to know more specifics, I can tell you."
"Then I’d appreciate it." Li Shaoqing said.
Li Yi motioned for him to sit down, then took out a pot of wine and a plate of Demon King at to entertain Li Shaoqing, proceeding to recount the recent events.
When he heard of Demon Kings, True Immortals, and Ancient Gods battling together with nurous experts on the Earth Defense Line, nearly shattering the continental plates, Li Shaoqing couldn’t help but break out in a cold sweat.
"Those dozens of experts outside Tianchang City are reinforcents I invited; they want to settle on Earth, and I’ve arranged for them to stay here for better supervision."
Subsequently, Li Yi glanced out the window, explaining the origin of the cultivators outside to avoid future misunderstandings.
"Are they reliable? Won’t they be like a wolf at the door?" Li Shaoqing softly voiced his concern.
Li Yi laughed, "You don’t need to trust them, just trust . Besides, inviting outside help to Earth isn’t unique to . The Golden Academy also liked to call in reinforcents, so it’s not surprising."
"That’s good then." Accepting Li Yi’s words, Li Shaoqing didn’t dwell on the matter.
These strong individuals were at least heroes, his suspicion seed sowhat improper, but that’s just the nature of Earthlings.
"Moreover, I must thank you; under your leadership, Tianchang City is doing well," Li Yi then added.
Li Shaoqing waved it off, "No need to thank ; I’m simply protecting my own ho. It’s what should be done."
"Though it should be done, you’re the only one I’ve seen cross back and protect this city." Li Yi said, "Others have truly fled."
"It’s unavoidable. By the way, Li Yi, do you rember that mission in the old district?" Li Shaoqing suddenly recalled.
"The mission involving the Walking Corpses? I rember, why?" Li Yi asked.
Li Shaoqing said, "In that old district, there’s a building that hasn’t been destroyed. It always has lights on, quite unusual, and so Evolvers who entered there mysteriously disappeared. I intended to find ti to investigate myself, but I think this matter is more suited for you."
"Supernatural?"
Li Yi imdiately understood Li Shaoqing’s implication, squinting his eyes.
"Perhaps, I’ve attempted to demolish that building but failed. It seems the building doesn’t exist in this space-ti, just a projection, yet it can affect reality," Li Shaoqing said.
Li Yi said, "That certainly requires caution, but since you ntioned it, I’ll take a look."
At his current level, he didn’t believe there was anything strange that could affect him. It’s a pity the short stick with cracks was taken by Xiao Yang, or it might be useful now.
"Don’t force it; if it’s too tricky, just let it be," Li Shaoqing said, "After all, it’s just an urban legend, especially since the Sky Tipping event, many odd things have erged on Earth, this is just one more among them."
"I understand." Li Yi chuckled, "Seems you were deeply impressed by what happened with my mother, still causing you so lingering fear."
"You’ve already learned about your mother’s matter?"
Li Shaoqing showed a slight surprise, then instinctively glanced around. Although his current strength had vastly improved, recalling that incident always sent a shiver down his spine.
"Rest assured, I’ve already resolved that issue," Li Yi said.
"That’s good." Li Shaoqing smiled awkwardly.
