BXBX NOVEL Chapter 31 - 27: They Are Not Human!
East Sea City.
Deep underground in the City Lord’s Mansion.
There was a strangely huge hall.
On the floor of the hall was a complex and intricate Array.
Within the Array, flicking starlights moved like spiritual snakes, traveling through spirit lines.
In the center of the Array was a Titan Giant Ape, forty meters tall and covered in scales. Its eyes were shooting out terrifying red light while it roared angrily!
Beneath the Titan Giant Ape stood an old man with silver hair and hands behind his back.
This elder had a withered face, deep wrinkles, tall and skinny, but without a hint of frailty.
He slightly tilted his head, looking like his whole body was made of steel, hiding a terrifying power within him!
“Clack, clack, clack!”
A sturdy middle-aged man, wearing battle armor and carrying a war sword, stepped quickly into the hall: “Old Qin, what happened?”
“Why did you suddenly wake up from your sleep?”
“And why is the Titan Giant Ape roaring uneasily?”
Old Qin’s eyes shone like stars as he sat cross-legged in the center of the Array.
The body of the Titan Giant Ape shrank considerably and also sat cross-legged.
Old Qin frowned and said, “I sensed ‘their’ presence in the Black Ant Forest outside East Sea City.”
“But they are cunning and swift.”
“I failed to lock onto their aura.’
“‘They’… What? Black Ant Forest?” The burly middle-aged man was taken aback, “They have the audacity to provoke us right outside East Sea City! ”
Old Qin snorted lightly, “It’s the third time this month…” “I ignored the first two times since they were further away.”
“But this time, they actually came to the Black Ant Forest!”
“Something’s not right… There shouldn’t be anything in East Sea City that’s worth their attention.”
“Could it be that they’re here for the 5th Secret Realm?”
“Regardless, City Lord, you have to contact Demon City as soon as possible.”
The person carrying the war sword in front of him was none other than the City Lord of East Sea City, Bai Tianyu!
Bai Tianyu’s face showed a horrified expression, “Old Qin, are ‘they’… really that terrifying?”
“With you, Old Fan, and Old Ding guarding East Sea City, do we still need to be afraid?”
Old Qin shook his head gently, his voice a little dry, “As the City Lord of East
Sea City, you’ve never fought against them. You have no idea what kind of beings they are.”
“Even now, I’m afraid the higher-ups haven’t fully understood their background either.”
“Their minions are all over the world…” “Wherever they appear, disaster is bound to follow!”
“They are not humans, they are Demons!”
“The real Demons!”
The Titan Giant Ape by Old Qin’s side could sense his tension and anger. Its huge finger gently touched Old Qin’s back twice, as a form of comfort.
Bai Tianyu nodded.
Old Qin went on, “Have the War God Pioneer Group and the other three Great
Pioneer Groups speed up their progress and enter the depths of the 5th Secret
Realm as soon as possible.”
“The star stone veins in the depths of the 5th Secret Realm are crucial to our East Sea City.”
“If we can mine the Star Stone veins in the 5th Secret Realm, the defensive power of our East Sea City’s Array will be increased several times!”
“And with sufficient Star Stones, we can boldly deploy the Starlight Destruction
Cannon in key locations…”
“Hmph!”
Old Qin snorted, “At that time, if they dare to target East Sea City, I’ll blast them to death!”
“I understand…” Bai Tianyu didn’t ask further. He nodded and said, “I’ll contact
Demon City immediately and then call a meeting with the captains of the Three Great Pioneer Groups.”
“Whether it is for the 5th Secret Realm or East Sea City, I will never let them succeed!”
“East Sea City has produced a figure like Chu Qingcheng before…”
“Tang Country has only one Chu Qingcheng.”
“East Sea City will not let him down!”
At the mention of the name “Chu Qingcheng,” Old Qin’s brow also relaxed, his eyes full of wonder.
If Chu Qingcheng were still here, how nice would that be!
Moonlight shone like water.
Fang Qingqing stood by the window, looking at the river flowing in the distance.
After some hesitation, she made a call.
A light screen appeared directly in front of her.
On the screen, a woman in a fire-red dress sat on a sofa with a slightly puzzled look at Fang Qingqing.
This woman had an exquisite appearance, a fair and flawless face, and skin as smooth as jade and delicate to the touch.
Her playful eyes sparkled like stars. A single glance would have you utterly entranced.
She smiled gently and said, “Huh? All the years we’ve known each other, this is the first time you’ve called me, Qingqing. What’s up?”
“Do you need anything?”
Fang Qingqing opened her mouth, hesitated for a moment before saying: “Hong Xiu, the prescription you gave was very effective. Xiaobu’s wounds should heal soon, thank you.”
Shen Hongxiu blinked, “What are you talking about? What prescription?”
Fang Qingqing was taken aback, “The person with the Ragdoll Cat and the
Slime wasn’t sent here by you?”
“Weren’t the medicine and method to treat Xiaobu’s wounds given by you?”
“What Ragdoll Cat? What Slime?” Shen Hongxiu frowned slightly and said,
“When did I send someone to look for you?”
“You mean that person helped you treat the Goblin’s wounds?”
