Crystal stones were a higher level existence than spirit stones. It was a cultivation treasure that cultivators yearned for even in their dreams. However, there were very few of them in the world and they could only be found in some meteorites.
Although Tang Zheng did not know this point, he could already confirm that crystal stones were very important to his future cultivation. He happily put away the gift box and said, "Thank you, Your Majesty."
Looking at Tang Zheng's reaction, the King knew that this gift was the right one. He secretly thought that the remaining crystal stones would definitely be of great use to Anne in the future.
"Then I will leave Anne in your care in the future. Send my regards to Tian Chanzi." The King said with a smile.
Tang Zheng, Fang Shishi, and Annie took a private jet to leave Sweden and return home. They landed at the Beijing International Airport and without the entourage of attendants, they returned to the city in a light car.
Anne looked at Tang Zheng and asked, "Tang Zheng, you must have found a new place to live, right?"
Eh?
Tang Zheng was speechless. A woman's mind was very meticulous. Seeing that he had not returned to his original home for a long time, she actually guessed this point.
He could not deny it and could only nod his head.
"Then can I go and take a look?" Anne looked at him with her big sparkling eyes. He could not refuse and could only nod his head.
* Xi *
When they arrived at the villa, Anne covered her mouth and exclaimed, "Wow, so you are living in such a luxurious place. No wonder you did not return to your previous home."
Tang Zheng was speechless and rolled his eyes. Compared to her family's palace, this was a world of difference.
Just as they entered the house, Nanna flew down from upstairs. She jumped into Tang Zheng's arms and happily shouted, "Brother, you are finally back."
Tang Zheng patted her back and said, "Yes, I missed Nanna so I came back."
"I miss you too." Nanna pouted and looked at her with her big black eyes.
Empyrean Fairy and Martial also walked down the stairs. Empyrean Fairy glanced at Tang Zheng indifferently, and then focused all of her attention on Nanna. The other two beauties did not attract her attention at all.
When Wu saw Tang Zheng, she was a little excited, but when she saw Fang Shishi, her expression became a little awkward.
Fang Shishi recognized Martial, so he was not surprised, but towards the Empyrean Fairy, he could not help but take a few more glances. Although the Empyrean Fairy had deliberately concealed her charm, she was still extremely beautiful.
Anne was dumbfounded. She exclaimed, "Wow, Hua Xia has an idiom … a golden house hides a mistress! Yes, this is what it means to keep a mistress in a golden house! "
Tang Zheng almost spat out a mouthful of blood. How can you fan the flames like this? Do you think it's not chaotic enough?
Fang Shishi's expression remained the same, as if he did not hear those words.
Tang Zheng hurriedly introduced both parties, changing the topic.
"They all live here, and the rooms are also like this. I also want to choose one. I don't want to go back and live in that empty house alone." Anne was not polite at all. She directly said and ran upstairs to choose a room.
Tang Zheng had no choice but to give up.
"Shishi, go and choose a room." Tang Zheng said.
"I'll take her." Martial took the initiative to say.
Fang Shishi smiled faintly at her and thanked her before the two of them went upstairs. As for the Empyrean Fairy, she directly sat on the sofa and said without batting an eyelid, "Something seems to have happened in the east."
Tang Zheng was stunned and asked, "You know about it too?"
"I have a feeling, but I am still unable to determine what it is." Empyrean Fairy had been wholeheartedly teaching her disciple Nanna during this period of time. She was not distracted at all and the matters of the outside world could not disturb her.
Tang Zheng was puzzled. Not only did Tian Chanzi have feelings for him, but even Empyrean Fairy was no exception. This was not an illusion, but something big had happened.
But what could it be?
Tian Chanzi could not be contacted, so he had no way of knowing.
His heart felt like it was being pressed down by a stone. He felt uneasy and decided to give Xu Yingtian a call to see if he had any information.
Xu Yingtian's voice was somewhat tired.
After returning from Heaven Mountain, he had arrested so many terrorists. During this period of time, he had been so busy that his feet did not touch the ground.
Of course, these achievements had greatly increased the chief's impression of him. The negative impression of him had gradually been made up.
When he heard Tang Zheng's voice, his tone returned to normal. He said, "Congratulations on successfully rescuing Miss Fang."
Tang Zheng hurriedly thanked him. If he had not ordered Ding Liang to fully cooperate with him, he would not have been able to achieve such a victory.
"Last time, I said that something big had happened in the east. Do you have any news?"
"I was just about to contact you. I just received the news not long ago. Something happened in the Island nation. Many people died, and there was a strange phenomenon in the sky. This matter was kept secret very well. The people did not know at all. I also paid a huge price to obtain this information. "
Tang Zheng was silent. The deaths of many people and the strange phenomenon in the sky made his heart thump. His mood sank to the bottom.
Wouldn't this be the case when the Mountain River Blood Sacrifice Array was activated?
Could it be that someone had activated the Mountain River Blood Sacrifice Array in the Island nation?
If that was the case, this person had to be the Hundred Faces Star Lord. Tang Zheng had always been wary of the Hundred Faces Star Lord activating this array in the country. He did not expect that he would not do this at all. Instead, he went to the Island nation.
The Island nation was adjacent to Hua Xia. The spiritual energy was not too thin, especially when the Tree of Life was gradually improving the spiritual energy in the world. This caused the spiritual energy in the Island nation to become even denser.
This was something that Tang Zheng had personally experienced in the Island nation the last time.
There were restrictions to activating the Mountain River Blood Sacrifice Array and summoning the demons back. That was, it had to be near Hua Xia, a place with abundant spiritual energy. Otherwise, the array would not be successfully activated.
If it were not for this restriction, the Rockefeller family would not have traveled thousands of miles and risked exposure to activate this array in Heavenly Mountain.
The Hundred Faces Star Lord was obviously smarter than the Rockefeller family and knew more about the secrets. Therefore, he took a step back and completed this operation in the Island nation.
Moreover, more people died in the sacrifice because, after all, it was in the Island nation and not Hua Xia. In order to maximize the effect, the Hundred Faces Star Lord did not hesitate to sacrifice several times more people.
Although Tang Zheng was unwilling to admit it, he knew that his worries were probably true. The demons had returned to this world. The thing that he had always wanted to stop had happened.
A strong sense of frustration hit him, causing him to lie on the sofa in defeat.
Nanna sensed his depression and crawled over. She asked with concern, "Brother, what's wrong?"
Tang Zheng took a deep breath and shook his head weakly.
"Tang Zheng, what's wrong?" Xu Yingtian also sensed that something was wrong and quickly asked.
"Director Xu, I'm afraid that what we have always wanted to stop has failed in the end. The demons have returned."
"Ah — —!" Xu Yingtian let out a scream. With a thud, the phone fell to the ground. He quickly picked it up and asked breathlessly, "Are you sure?"
"I'm pretty sure."
"Could it be that someone in the Island nation has activated the Mountain River Blood Sacrifice Array?"
"Yes, and this must be done by the Hundred Faces Star Lord."
Xu Yingtian's breathing was like a bellows. He could not calm down for a long time. Finally, he asked helplessly, "Then what should we do?"
"Make all the preparations. The demons have returned. This world is going to be in chaos." Tang Zheng said weakly.
"I'll immediately report to the director." Xu Yingtian did not have time to say more and quickly hung up the phone.
Tang Zheng closed his eyes and sank into the sofa. His brain was spinning rapidly. The demons had returned. How should he deal with them?
With his cultivation, he was afraid that there was no way to deal with them.
Although he was already a second-grade Golden Core, the demons had more masters and greater destructive power. With his own strength, it was like a mantis trying to stop a car.
"Do I really have to rebuild the Stairway to Heaven and let all the practitioners in the Human Realm Beyond Heaven return to resist the demons' attack?"
"But my cultivation has not reached the level to break the restriction of the imperial city and release the Five-clawed Golden Dragon. How can I take out the Dark Stone of Heaven and Earth under the imperial city?"
He shook his head violently and was very confused.
Empyrean Fairy looked at him curiously and said, "What happened? I heard you say that the demons have returned. Are the demons in the Human Realm Beyond Heaven coming back? "
Empyrean Fairy already knew the details of the expulsion of the practitioners to the Human Realm Beyond Heaven hundreds of years ago.
Tang Zheng let out a long sigh and said: "Yes."
"Then what's the trouble? They were originally people of this world. " Empyrean Fairy did not take it seriously. "The demons have existed in this world for thousands of years. What's the fuss about their return?"
Tang Zheng shook his head. "It's not what you think. The demons are cruel by nature. Once they return, the people in this world will suffer."
Empyrean Fairy looked at him strangely and said, "You and Qin Shi Huang are both Skywalkers, but there is a big difference between the two of you. He will never be troubled like you. The lives of ordinary people are like ants in his eyes. He will never care about their lives. "
"He is the emperor of all ages. I am just an ordinary person. I can't be like him." Tang Zheng smiled bitterly.
"Then what are you going to do?" Empyrean Fairy asked curiously.
Tang Zheng shook his head. "I have not thought of a way yet. I can only wait and see. Tian Chanzi went to the Island nation. Let's wait for his news."
Since the demons had returned, Tang Zheng could not leave Hua Xia. What if the demons returned and the people around him were harmed?
The most important thing now was to figure out the movements of the demons after they returned. Were they still in the Island nation, or had they already snuck back to Hua Xia, and what their goal was.
However, the necessary preparations could still be done. Liu Qingmei was still on a business trip, so he had to return to the capital as soon as possible. He was more at ease with his own woman by his side, so that he could protect them to the greatest extent.
As for his grandfather, Tang Zheng had already made plans for Ye Yuan to bring him and the rest of the Witch Clan, including the elders of the Witch Clan who were overseas, to the island.
That was his final base camp. The island was safer than the mainland.
