Chapter 489 That Day, Qian Duoduo Remembered the Fear of Being Controlled
Chapter 489 That day, Qian Duoduo recalled the fear of being controlled.
The sudden crackdown in Maple Leaf City made the city lord extremely nervous.
After all, this large group of high-ranking generals from Mingdu only showed him the transfer order, without explaining why martial law was declared.
Over the years, although the Lord of Maple Leaf City has not done anything major that violates the law, he has made quite a few small moves, after all, Maple Leaf City is a border town.
Those coming and going were mostly caravans, labor organizations, and various sects.
It would be impossible to say that the Lord of Maple Leaf City didn't receive some special gifts.
Furthermore, a number of major events occurred recently. First, a large number of civilians mysteriously disappeared, and the soldiers in the city searched the entire town but found nothing. Then, there were orders from above to arrest rare metal merchants.
And now, suddenly, martial law is declared for the entire city.
The Lord of Maple Leaf City was terrified. If one day the Surveillance Bureau suddenly came with a search warrant, he would be dead.
The general leading the troops to impose martial law on Maple Leaf City was a burly middle-aged man named Jiang Feng. He had a fierce appearance, and his exposed arms were covered with scars.
Behind him was a group of elite soldiers carrying single-barreled soul-guided cannons.
The Maple Leaf City Lord stood beside Jiang Feng with a bitter face, not daring to breathe loudly, for fear of attracting the general's attention.
The City Lord's Mansion is located in one of the tallest buildings in Maple Leaf City, allowing it to monitor the entire city.
The location that Jiang Feng and his group are currently monitoring is Maple Leaf Square.
However, with Elder Xuan in charge, Jiang Feng and the others could not approach Maple Leaf Square directly. They could only observe from afar and ordered their subordinates to keep a close watch on the streets.
"As long as Shrek's team doesn't cause any trouble, I, the general, will return home safely today!" Jiang Feng was unusually tense. Xu Tianran had given him a death order, and if anything went wrong, the best outcome would be losing his official hat.
At worst, he won't see his new concubine tonight, and he won't see her again in the future.
Elder Xuan ignored the gazes cast by Jiang Feng and the others, and stood behind Fan Yu waiting for the handover to be completed.
However, Elder Xuan was a little impatient, and his crossed legs were shaking rapidly, causing the lion statue beneath him to vibrate.
"Why isn't it over yet? I don't want to stay in the Sun Moon Empire for even a minute longer." Elder Xuan touched the wine gourd at his waist; it was empty.
The wine that Elder Xuan had was still on Ye Nanxiao.
Thinking of Ye Nanxiao, Elder Xuan also glanced around and released his senses.
"Yuhao said that Xiao Xiao has deliberately lost contact. Today is the day to return. He should have arrived by now, right?" Elder Xuan muttered. If he missed today, he would have to wait until tonight to sneak back into the Sun Moon Empire and bring Ye Nanxiao back to Shrek Academy.
The difficulty level will definitely increase by then.
Even infiltration might be a problem. Xuan Lao looked at the squads of soldiers patrolling around Maple Leaf Square, a chill rising in his eyes.
It took Jing Hongchen almost an hour to connect and verify all the work results of this exchange and learning with Fan Yu. When she turned around, she found that her grandchildren were already sitting in the square with Huo Yuhao, drinking some wine.
Seeing the smiles on Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen's faces, Jing Hongchen felt a surge of relief. The most important thing was that her grandson could grow up smoothly.
"That kid Ye Nanxiao made a good point: as long as the descendants of my Hongchen family are still alive, Mingde Hall will remain. We don't need to be confined to a concrete and metal building." Jing Hongchen laughed twice and walked to the three of them.
"Master Hongchen." Huo Yuhao bowed to Jing Hongchen. Aside from their political identities, Jing Hongchen had treated him quite well. During Xu Tianran's attack, he did not take advantage of the situation but instead offered a helping hand.
"Yuhao, it seems you two had a good talk. Young people should get to know each other better!" Jing Hongchen also noticed Xiao Hongchen's tremendous progress, especially the soul tool called "Floating Cannon," which was perfectly suited for Xiao Hongchen.
"It would be a bit difficult to move around much, I don't have an international passport." Huo Yuhao shrugged and joked with a smile.
Xu Tianran will inevitably deploy troops to the border of the Sun Moon Empire, using border security as a pretext to secretly block the border and prevent powerful soul masters from other countries from entering.
Having suffered numerous setbacks, Xu Tianran was eager to turn Mingdu into an ironclad tyrant.
"It's alright, it's alright. There's a big hotel in Maple Leaf City that will be run by Xiao'er and Meng'er from now on. You can come and visit anytime." Jing Hongchen's thinking was quite simple. As long as they didn't cross the border, they could just chat and catch up remotely. The short-range communication soul tool could still do that.
"Alright, kid, come visit Maple Leaf City more often when you have free time." Huo Yuhao agreed with Jing Hongchen's line of thought.
The thought of several people chatting via communication devices across a border is quite amusing.
"A hotel?" Meng Hongchen blinked.
She seemed to have subconsciously overlooked that lively place.
"Yuhao, it's time to leave," Fanyu said as she walked over. The handover was complete, and they could leave.
"Alright, Xiao Hongchen, see you next time." Huo Yuhao extended his fist.
"Next time, just wait and see if I beat you to a pulp!" Xiao Hongchen also raised his fist and bumped it with Huo Yuhao's.
The three watched as Huo Yuhao followed Fan Yu back to Shrek Academy's team.
Just as the Shrek team was preparing to take off, Xiao Hongchen crossed his arms and said, "Shrek Academy's foundation is really strong. They actually sent two experts from the Sea God Pavilion."
"Indeed, Shrek Academy's foundation is unfathomable. With thousands of years of accumulation, even the Empire cannot underestimate Shrek Academy now!" Jing Hongchen sighed. If his Mingde Hall had such a foundation, it would not need to be concerned about Xu Tianran's feelings.
"Wait, Grandpa, didn't you say that only one of Shrek's Sea God Pavilion experts came?" Meng Hongchen suddenly asked. She had accompanied Jing Hongchen to welcome Shrek's Sea God Pavilion expert.
"Huh? That's right! Only Elder Song came!" Jing Hongchen suddenly looked at the Shrek Academy team.
Among the soaring procession, two elders of the Sea God Pavilion, dressed in Shrek Academy elder robes, were leading the group away from Maple Leaf City.
And at the very back was Elder Xuan.
"I haven't heard that Shrek Academy has a second elder from the Sea God Pavilion?" Jing Hongchen muttered to himself.
"It's Nanxiao!" Meng Hongchen's face showed resentment. She had guessed that Ye Nanxiao had returned, but she hadn't been able to find him.
"It's Ye Nanxiao, then it's not surprising." Jing Hongchen looked up at the Shrek team, which had turned into tiny black dots. They were Soul Saints who had managed to escape from Xue Chen's grasp.
"It's such a pity we couldn't meet!" Meng Hongchen sighed. "Grandpa, can I still go to Shrek Academy?"
"It's probably not possible in the short term," Jing Hongchen said, shaking his head. "However, you will have a chance to see him later. He promised Grandpa that he would help you solve your martial soul cultivation problem."
Jing Hongchen revealed the promise he made to Ye Nanxiao, and Xiao Hongchen and Meng Hongchen became excited at the same time.
The latest novel is first published here!
Just as the grandfather and grandson were getting excited, Orange came over with Shadow Tiger and Shadow Rabbit.
"Master of the Red Dust Hall, are you interested in cooperating?" Orange asked with a mysterious smile.
With Elder Song and Elder Xuan working together to escort them, the Shrek team returned to Shrek City at top speed.
Old Song released his soul power to protect the entire team, and said to the man next to him who was dressed the same as him, "Little guy, you can scare people outside, but you can't keep wearing this outfit when we get to Shrek City."
The ice mirrors folded and disappeared, revealing Ye Nanxiao's original attire.
"This outfit will let you walk around Shrek City with your head held high." Ye Nanxiao chuckled and reached out to tidy up the hair that was sticking to his forehead.
"If you like it, you can work hard for ten or eight years and maybe you'll be able to wear this uniform. I was only qualified to get this uniform when I was sixty years old. You can do it in half the time it took me," Old Song said with a smile.
Old Song wasn't joking. With Ye Nanxiao's current strength and Old Mu's high regard, as long as he reaches the Title Douluo level within thirty years, he really can secure a seat in the Sea God Pavilion.
"Even if I don't work hard, my family can still afford this outfit." Ye Nanxiao deactivated his martial spirit and, immersed in Elder Song's soul power, lazily lay there.
"Xiao Tao's size isn't suitable for you." Old Song smiled knowingly.
Before Ye Nanxiao could even close his eyes and enjoy the flight, he was struck hard on the head.
"Holy crap!"
The glistening white chicken leg bone gleamed in Elder Xuan's hand, its swaying up and down reflecting how displeased he was.
"You brat, have you had enough of this?" Elder Xuan held a chicken leg bone in one hand and grabbed Ye Nanxiao by the back of his collar with the other.
"It's not that I wanted to be reckless, Elder Xuan, it's just that the enemy is too cunning!" Ye Nanxiao rubbed his head, thankfully his physical resistance had improved after being beaten up by Long Xiaoyao.
"You little brat, you scared this old man! I haven't been able to eat or sleep well these past few days!" Elder Xuan glared at Ye Nanxiao. Behind him, Fan Yu, Cai Tou, and Huo Yuhao also floated over, all glaring at Ye Nanxiao, as if to say, "If you don't make it up to us, we'll keep glaring at you."
"Well... I had no choice but to do this!" Ye Nanxiao still wanted to struggle a bit. Putting aside He Caitou and Fan Yu, Huo Yuhao and Elder Xuan were clearly trying to take money from his savings!
"This matter won't end until I've brewed three hundred jars of fine wine! Let me tell you!" Old Master Xuan said, blowing his beard and glaring.
"That's right! This matter won't be over until we get 500 catties of rare metal! I can't eat or sleep well either!" Huo Yuhao chimed in.
Ye Nanxiao [.]
Let's not even talk about not being able to beat him; the chicken leg bone on his head alone caused him a lot of trouble.
Ye Nanxiao, whose secret stash had been severely depleted, clutched his patched-up wallet and trembled with fear.
"Dean Qian! I miss you so much!"
The Shrek team quickly returned to Shrek City before dawn.
Ye Nanxiao got off the bus and rushed into the Soul Guidance Department.
That day, Qian Duoduo's voice, filled with surprise and joy, echoed through the Soul Guidance Department building.
On that day, the students and teachers of the Soul Guidance Department witnessed a scene that had not been seen for a long time: "Dean Qian is on the run."
That day, Qian Duoduo recalled the fear of being dominated by Ye Nanxiao, whose eyes gleamed with golden light.
