The Scourge left Shen 'du and entered the dark space.
The feeling of freedom was so wonderful that Xia Fan and Fo You felt relaxed. After all, they were no longer controlled by the four major families and had become respected warriors. Although there were many twists and turns on the trip to Shen 'du, Xia Fan and Fo You's growth was not to be underestimated.
To everyone's surprise, the number one celebrity in everyone's eyes was not Xia Fan or Fo You, but Mingzhu. She came from the Icebound Dragon family and had gained countless fans in Divine Capital. There were even mascots named after Mingzhu on the streets. She was extremely popular.
On the third day of the voyage, Xia Fan began to become nervous. He kept pacing in the command center, thinking about the ancient tomb under the dome and the scourges.
"Look, that's the Gate of the Universe." Mingzhu pointed out the window and said excitedly, "As long as we pass through the Gate of the Universe, we can enter the Vast Thousand World. There are countless Gates of the Universe there, leading to countless universes. It's very, very magical."
Everyone else had seen the Gate of the Universe, but it was the first time for Fo You and Yin Shui'er. They widened their eyes and showed an extremely shocked expression. Yin Shui'er's hands unconsciously grabbed Fo You's arm.
It was worth mentioning that the relationship between Yin Shui'er and Fo You seemed to have been tacitly acknowledged. When they left Shen 'du, Yin Shui'er followed behind Fo You like a new wife. Fo You did not object. The landlord's silly son also wanted to go with them, but he was scared away by Fo You's glare. It could be seen that Fo You did not treat Yin Shui'er as an outsider.
"It's so spectacular! It's hard to imagine what kind of magical world is behind the Gate of the Universe! "Fo You exclaimed.
"Your father once said that a good man should aspire to travel far and wide. This sentence deeply resonates with me. I'm very glad that I devoted myself to the investigation and exploration of the Vast Thousand World with him." Ta Mou said with his chest puffed out. Every time he talked about Xia Fan's father, he seemed very excited. It seemed that Tian Yi was Ta Mou's idol.
Fo You thought about Ta Mou's words, and his eyes were full of passion. It seemed that he wanted to leave Cang Yue. Yin Shui'er did not speak, but just hugged Fo You's arm tighter.
Not far from the Gate of the Universe was the Dome Star. This star was not marked on any star map. Xia Fan used his own memory and the knowledge he learned from the scourges to calculate the coordinates. The Gate of the Universe was eternal and unchanging. The Dome Star orbited the Gate of the Universe. It was not difficult for people with general knowledge of astronomy to calculate the coordinates according to the orbit pattern.
As the saying goes, one feels shy when one is close to home. Looking at the dead planet in the distance, Xia Fan's voice trembled slightly. He maneuvered Calamity to land, walked out of the cabin, and saw the tomb where he grew up.
He looked up and saw that the dome was gone. It must have been destroyed by the terrifying enemy. Although there were no signs of battle outside the tomb, Xia Fan was still very nervous. His breathing became heavier.
"Why don't you stay here and we'll go in and have a look?" Fu You suggested. He was afraid that Xia Fan would be reminded of the corpses of the scourges.
"There's no need. Let's go together. The tomb is very complicated and you don't know the way," Xia Fan said.
When they came near the tomb, Mingzhu looked at the complicated patterns on the tomb and frowned. "Wind and clouds? I seem to have seen this pattern somewhere, but it's been too long, so I can't remember it clearly. Your blind grandfather, he is not from Cang Yue, right? "
This was possible. The famous family in Cang Yue was none other than Cang Yue Yin. The blind grandfather's surname was Luo, so maybe he also entered Cang Yue through the Gate of the Universe.
The scene in the tomb was the same as before. Pushing open the mechanic's workshop, all kinds of tools were neatly hung on the wall, some scraps were in the corner, and there were unfinished works on the mechanical processing table. A fully automatic surveillance drone was half assembled.
The plants in the farmer's room were not cared for, and they grew to the height of a person. On the pharmacist's scale, there were unprocessed medicines. In the dancer couple's room, there was a moving movement …
Everything was so familiar and intimate. Unfortunately, things remained the same, but people had changed. They could no longer see the scourges.
They came to the deepest part of the tomb and opened the hidden gate. There were many carvings of eyes, but there were no corpses of the scourges, nor were there any signs of battle. There were some cracks on the tall altar, left by the blind grandfather when he sent Xia Fan away.
"Could he have been taken away by someone? Because the enemy was too strong, they were unable to resist, so there were no signs of battle? "Ta Mou frowned.
No matter what, it was strange that there were no signs of battle in the tomb. Back then, the scourges were determined to die together with the invaders.
"It could also be some kind of mind control superpower, or a parasite that can invade the brain. I have seen too many unimaginable secret techniques in the Vast Thousand Worlds," Mingzhu said while standing on Xia Fan's shoulder.
Everyone spread out and searched for any possible clues in the ancient tomb. When they were attacked, Grandpa Blind Man said that the enemy came for the Golden Rule. However, the Golden Rule was now in Xia Fan's hands, so the enemy should not have succeeded.
.....
The highest meeting of the four families.
"Let's vote now to decide our future path."
"The Divine Capital has completely collapsed. There are only two paths in front of us. Stay in the core area of the universe, or return to the three alliances."
Yin Feng's gaze was solemn. He swept his gaze across everyone and said, "I believe everyone is clear about the pros and cons of these two choices. If we stay in the core area, we can still live in the Four King Cities. We are free here, but the Four King Cities are limited. The Four King Cities will not be able to withstand the influx of billions of Divine Capital residents. The pressure of survival will be heavy, and we will lack the necessary resources.
"If we return to the three alliances, we will obtain more resources. With the reputation of our Azure Dragon Moon Concealment, we should be able to live a good life."
At this point, Yin Feng suddenly said in a serious tone, "I want to remind everyone that before voting, please consider the risk that Cang Yue is facing. Although we used the battleship left behind by Ta Mou to destroy the space of the Divine Capital, no one can guarantee that the magic power will not leak.
"In addition, the three alliances have already discovered traces of the Ant Devils in Cang Yue. The Ant Devils are the most ancient race of the demonic lifeforms. This means that it will not be long before a cruel war erupts. If we join the three alliances now, we can fight alongside them in the future and help protect Cang Yue."
Everyone frowned. There were a total of eight people present. They were the patriarchs of the four families and the strongest warriors of their families. Azure Dragon Moon Concealment had never believed in democracy. The decisions of these eight people represented the four families.
"Let's vote now." Yin Feng paused and was the first to raise his hand. He said in a deep voice, "I agree to return to the three alliances. After all, we've all seen what kind of disaster the demonic lifeforms will bring. Although you all call me crazy old man, I also have a granddaughter. I definitely don't want Shui 'er and her child to become like the elders, neither human nor ghost."
"I also agree. As a member of Azure Dragon Moon Concealment, we have the responsibility to stand up when Cang Yue needs us."
"I agree. Living in seclusion did not give us the strength to challenge Heaven's Wings. Instead, it turned the elders into demons. This price is too heavy."
It didn't take long for the voting to end. Yin Feng breathed a sigh of relief and loudly announced, "Six votes in favor, two votes against. Fo You gave me a contact information. I will contact an old man as soon as possible and inform him of this matter."
"Who is this old man you speak of?"
"Is he trustworthy?" everyone asked.
Yin Feng nodded. "You might not believe it, but the Jiuzhou War God is still alive."
"Buddha Jiuzhou!"
"Heavens, he's still alive!?"
