Chapter 708: Chapter 707: It’s Him, Yang Fei
"Everyone, everyone left?"
At the top of ishan Mountain, as the leader of the National Security Departnt stationed there, Zhang Qingyang watched all seven Hidden Sect bigwigs leave and couldn’t help but be sowhat dumbfounded.
Sensing his strange expression, several sharp gazes simultaneously landed on him.
Zhang Qingyang felt a chill in his heart, as if a blade hung over his head, a thorn in his back.
Although those top experts had left, there were still more than a dozen Innate Realm powerhouses sitting in attendance here.
Facing these Martial Arts experts from the Hidden Sect, Zhang Qingyang felt a deep sense of powerlessness in his heart.
Too strong!
Indeed, coming from the hidden world, those called National Guardian Level Innate Realm Martial Artists appeared as if they cost nothing, with dozens erging all at once.
The key was that this was still not the total number of top combat forces of the Hidden Sect.
According to information he had occasionally heard these days, the number of Innate Realm strongn in the Hidden Sect World exceeded several hundred, with dozens at the Divine Travel Realm as well.
Such a lineup appearing in the secular world was simply a dinsional strike.
"Before the return of the several ancestors, no one here is allowed to leave our sight, nor allowed to reveal any occurrences here to the outside world, otherwise it will be t with death!" a peak Innate Realm elder from the Zhuge family swept his gaze toward the National Security Departnt personnel, saying coldly.
A terrifying murderous intent pervaded the void, causing the mbers of the National Security Departnt to tremble with fear, and all bowed their heads.
But in everyone’s heart erged a sense of humiliation and grievance.
This was a total lack of dignity, even human rights.
Previously, although they had to abide by various rules and regulations and heed their superiors, even higher-level superiors could not arbitrarily take their lives without at least providing a reason and evidence.
But these strongn from the aristocratic families of the Hidden Sect were different; they treated the mbers of Divine Continent’s various departnts with contempt, not taking their lives seriously at all.
Without the constraints of strict laws and systems, these sons and daughters of the Hidden Sect aristocratic families wielding powerful personal combat strength could act with complete impunity.
Zhang Qingyang sighed inwardly, as a citizen of the Divine Continent, he was filled with concern for the future of Divine Continent, but faced with such a trend, he was powerless to change it.
...
"Although I had heard a lot about the secular world before, seeing it with my own eyes and experiencing it firsthand is really different. This place is much more prosperous than I imagined."
Walking on the bustling streets of Imperial City, Helian Rong looked around curiously at many things, noticing several people passing by and even turning their heads to scrutinize and whisper, she frowned slightly and said:
"Our attire is too strange, we’re always being stared at like freaks."
Zhao Wuji imdiately responded with a smiling face, "They think Miss you are too beautiful, saying you are like soone from ancient tis who has traveled to the modern era. Actually, our attire is not unusual for a modern tropolis like Imperial Capital, especially as Hanfu has beco rather popular in recent years, and many young people even like role-playing gas, so people have already accepted it."
Speaking of this, Zhao Wuji glanced at Ouyang He, Helian Zhan, and Wang Chunyang, then looked down at his own clothes and said with a bitter smile: "However, we should still change into so modern clothing, nearly all who play role-playing are young people, we are a bit old for it, and it’s easy to attract attention. Moreover, Miss you are too beautiful with a unique aura, too easily surrounded and photographed, always a bit of trouble."
Helian Zhan nodded and said, "Indeed, we should conform to local customs regarding attire."
Wang Chunyang said, "It is indeed uncomfortable to be stared at with such unusual gazes. But if we put on modern clothes, what about our hair, are we also supposed to cut it off? I feel that the current hairstyles are ugly."
Upon hearing this, Ouyang He quickly nodded, "Brother Wang is right, I’m at this age and if I were to cut off all my white hair, it would really be sowhat difficult to part with."
"This..." Zhao Wuji looked toward Helian Zhan, sowhat troubled.
If everyone kept their current attire, though it would attract so unusual gazes, modern people have a high degree of acceptance toward role-playing and wearing ancient or foreign outfits, so it wouldn’t really matter. However, if they changed into modern popular clothes, yet retained their long hair, they would only look even more outlandish and attract more attention.
Seeing Zhao Wuji’s troubled expression, Helian Zhan asked, "What’s the matter?"
Zhao Wuji shared his thoughts.
The others nodded in agreent upon hearing this.
Ouyang He said, "Since they can accept our manner of dress, there’s no need to change."
Wang Chunyang also nodded, "Mm, it just ans drawing a few extra glances, no harm done."
Helian Zhan laughed, "Then there’s no need to care about the opinions of the common folk."
With that, he turned to Wang Chunyang, "If what Zhuge Qian said was true, and this place is in the north, then Yang Fei and Qin Yanyang won’t be here. I need to find that lad to treat my daughter, will you join ?"
Wang Chunyang smiled, "I can go anywhere, but if I can travel together with Brother Ouyang and Brother Helian, it would naturally be a great joy in life."
"Hahaha, good, let’s travel together then," Helian Zhan laughed heartily and turned to Zhao Wuji, "Do you have a way to contact Yang Fei?"
Zhao Wuji quickly replied, "It’s still unclear whether the communication devices in the Divine Continent are damaged or if the north and south still maintain normal communication. I need to make so inquiries."
"Hmm, locate that lad as soon as possible, so we can et him sooner," Helian Zhan said.
"Yes."
Zhao Wuji soon exchanged the gold ingot he carried for a sum of money at a bank and then bought a cell phone. As the Shadow Slaughter Venerable, although Qin Yanyang had led the Military Departnt to break through the Shadow’s stronghold, not all Shadows were captured, and many of the more powerful Shadow mbers ca from the great aristocratic families or Sects of the secular Martial World. These people had their own ans of influence in the secular world.
Half an hour later, Zhao Wuji reported to Helian Zhan, "I can’t get in touch with Yang Fei at the mont, but to find him, we only need to find Qin Yanyang."
Helian Zhan nodded, "Where is Qin Yanyang?"
"The Western War Zone," Zhao Wuji replied.
"Oh? What is she doing there?" Helian Zhan frowned slightly.
Zhao Wuji pondered briefly before analyzing, "She might be worried that the Hidden Sect practitioners will make a big move into the secular world and attempt to break through from that portal. Or she might suspect that Zhuge and the people from the Duanmu Family have secretly escaped through that transportation portal. Given the current situation, the Western War Zone is indeed a very important place. If more Hidden Sect practitioners erge from there, it would be a very dangerous situation for Qin Yanyang and the others. So, it is indeed necessary for her to personally station herself there."
The others nodded their heads in agreent.
Wang Chunyang said, "Then let’s head to the Western War Zone first."
Helian Zhan nodded at Zhao Wuji, who imdiately made a few phone calls.
Before long, a Coaster van arrived beside them.
There was only a driver in the Coaster, who after parking near Zhao Wuji, looked them over carefully and asked respectfully, "Are you Mr. Zhao?"
Zhao Wuji nodded and asked in return, "Did Hong Qingquan send you?"
"Yes, Mr. Zhao, the boss sent
to pick you up."
The group got into the van, and the Coaster headed in the direction of the city’s ring expressway.
Inside the vehicle, Helian Rong sat by the window, her gaze fixed outside. As her first ti in the secular world, she found it to be incredibly flourishing and attractive.
After driving for about fifteen minutes, they still hadn’t left the city. Although it wasn’t peak hour, the traffic pressure in Imperial City was too great, with many sections heavily congested.
Suddenly, Helian Rong, who was staring out of the window, brightened up and exclaid, "Stop the car!"
"What’s the matter?" Helian Zhan quickly looked at his daughter with concern, and the others looked over as well.
Helian Rong pointed in a direction, "It’s him, Yang Fei."
