Qing Ming City.
In the ruins.
The stampeding bulls had disappeared.
Iron Hammer swept his gaze and left after bidding farewell to Lu Ming. He wanted to find the Spirit Awakening Pendant and his lost memories. Oh, it was time to look for Iron Donkey …
Hence …
Iron Hammer left as well.
The land of Qing Ming City regained its peace.
"…"
Lu Ming looked at the basin formed with Qing Ming City as the center. He could not come to his senses for a long time. Damn. Were the big shots that capricious in changing the terrain?
However …
He looked back. It seemed to be over?!
Yes.
It was over.
The police were wiped out.
The Spiritualists were wiped out.
There were only a few of them left in the huge Qing Ming City!
Oh.
Something was not right.
In the ruins in the distance, one could vaguely hear wailing. Some itinerant cultivators who did not participate were still alive. However, they did not affect the overall situation.
This catastrophe had finally come to an end.
It was a pity …
In the end, Lu Ming could not find anyone who could compensate him.
And right then.
With Iron Hammer's departure, the powerful figures who were originally spectating finally appeared. Those cultivators who had been paying attention to Qing Ming City also stepped into the ruins.
"Nephew!
"I am your second uncle!
"You …
"How did you get injured to this extent?"
An old man hugged the teenager who had been ravaged by the bulls and cried bitterly.
"…"
The teenager was awakened from his coma by the pain. Looking at the old man who was pulling him and shaking him crazily, a sense of grief and indignation surged from the bottom of his heart and he fainted on the spot.
"…"
Lu Ming was silent.
If he was not wrong, this was the big shot who ran away?
"Did you do it?"
The old man looked at Lu Ming fiercely.
"…"
Lu Ming rolled his eyes.
Bang!
Bang!
Beams of powerful auras emerged.
The forces behind many people finally appeared.
"What should we do?"
Xia Yu was somewhat worried.
Actually, one could tell what was going on with one look at the Restart Array. However, one could not expect everyone to be as rational as one!
Especially —
When some of their loved ones died!
"It's okay."
Lu Ming patted him on the shoulder and chose to do what a good kid would do — call the police.
"Is this useful?"
Xia Yu did not know whether to laugh or cry.
"Don't worry."
Lu Ming smiled. "The higher-ups will give us an explanation …"
…
Somewhere.
Zhang Wei looked at the signal that appeared in his hand and immediately contacted his superior.
"Hello."
"I am the enforcer, Zhang Wei. My serial number is …"
"From now on, I will explain everything that happened in Qing Ming City …"
…
The enforcers arrived very quickly.
It was true.
Due to the disappearance of the shielded information, the detector detected dozens of powerful policemen who should not have appeared in Qing Ming City. How could they not be shocked?
Especially …
These people were dead!
Hence …
The police appeared in Qing Ming City right away and saw the battlefield that had turned into ruins … and this unbelievable scene …
"Qing Ming City has become like this?"
"F * ck! I was fine two days ago. "
"Yeah!"
"Damn it! We didn't even get any news about such a big thing!"
"It's over …"
The Enforcers were disheartened.
They knew.
The occurrence of such a large-scale disaster was a monstrous disaster!
So many five-star and Six Star policemen were involved. Who could escape? This time, the entire police agency would most likely be reshuffled!
"Let's not think too much first. Let's save them!"
"Is anyone still alive?"
"Some people will eventually hide."
The ruins were huge.
Although Lu Ming and the rest were at the center of the battle, there were still a large number of people who were alive at the periphery.
Even though …
They were struggling at death's door.
Some of them were locals of Qing Ming City. They were unintentionally involved and were hiding in the ruins, shivering. Some were seriously injured in the battle and escaped at the last minute!
The most shocking thing was …
The rescue team dug out a large number of cultivators from the ground!
The cultivators had been rescued and the truth could no longer be hidden.
The Restart Array … Spiritualist … Possession … Inheritance … One by one, horrifying words appeared, causing every cultivator to tremble in fear!
And …
The scenes that happened in the Restart Array!
Lu Yan's shocking sword!
The fight for the legacy!
The conspiracy of the Spiritualists!
And …
Everything that happened in the Divine Weapon Pavilion and the Imperial Beast Pavilion!
"Where is the burly man in the Imperial Beast Pavilion?"
"He seems to have left …"
"Sigh, not only him, I saw a few people who got what they wanted and left quietly. They reaped the most benefits from this battle!"
Of course.
In the end …
It was the big shot who 'passed by' that ended everything …
"That big shot who rode a bull?"
"Right, right, right. There has always been such a rumor in Qing Ming City! Rumor has it that a powerful figure related to bulls lives in seclusion in Qing Ming City. I didn't expect it to be true! "
"It's a blessing and a curse."
Everyone heaved continuous sighs.
…
The matter in Qing Ming City had come to an end for the time being.
The police displayed the highest efficiency and strongest lineup in history to stabilize the overall situation. Everyone was placed in the model houses built in the suburbs.
"If there are any needs, transfer them from the neighboring cities! Remember, the needs of Qing Ming City are the first! "
"Understood!"
"Oh, right. Is there enough food?"
"Yes … We have calculated the number of bulls that died in the ruins. If we eat them, it will be enough to feed the people in the city for half a month."
"Okay.
"However, will there be a nutritional imbalance if we only eat beef?"
"Oh … In that case, get the Summoners to do the job and get us some chicken, duck, fish and so on."
"…"
The policemen were very serious.
They knew that very soon, everyone would know about what happened in Qing Ming City. At this time, they did not dare to slack off at all.
Li Jianli and the rest were either dead or injured. The rest were detained.
They needed to know the truth!
They needed to know who these people were!
Lu Ming and the rest also made a statement and everything was fine. This was because this time, the biggest scapegoat lay with the police …
In the past …
It was the police who needed an explanation.
But this time …
He was afraid that the police needed to give everyone an explanation!
Oh.
Right.
And the name list that Zhang Wei came up with …
Those who did not enter the legacy and were in charge of data processing or deduction could not escape. They were caught and sent to the headquarters.
Undoubtedly.
There would be a new reshuffle in the police organization!
…
True enough.
Only two hours later.
What happened in Qing Ming City was announced to everyone through a piece of news. Almost everyone who read the news was shocked!
Who would have thought that Qing Ming City would be gone in just two days?!
The Spiritualist vocation …
The Restart Array …
Every explosive point sent chills down people's spines.
It was too horrifying!
"He actually managed to hide it from everyone!"
"There's no choice. The array has been set up for a thousand years. They had planned everything a thousand years ago. Who would know? However, this bull-riding big shot is really ferocious! "
"R-right! I heard that he's super powerful! "
Some people exclaimed in amazement and some people were doubtful.
"Do the police eat sh * t?! They didn't discover anything unusual after two days? "
"Hey, let me tell you. According to my insider information, the police didn't discover anything this time because there was a group of traitors among them …"
"Traitors?"
"Brother, you're not focusing on the right thing?"
"…"
The Restart Array incident caused a sensation on the Internet.
It had to be popular.
After all, the hundreds of thousands of people in Qing Ming City who were squatting in the model houses could only do one thing — go online! Therefore, they actively participated in various discussions.
"How is Qing Ming City now?"
— Ruins, basins.
"What about the beasts in the Imperial Beast Pavilion?"
— Some were dead and some were crippled. Some had left with the bull-riding big shot.
"Is the beef delicious?"
— Delicious.
— In fact, it was not very delicious. Although the level was quite high, the five-star beef was still passable. The Six Stars beef was a little tough to chew on.
— The person above, can you brag about it forever?
…
The First College.
The dean paid close attention to the developments in Qing Ming City. As the most powerful college on the surface, they also sent out support and condolences.
After all …
This was a real disaster.
Although he heard that not many people died …
"Send some Structural Stabilizers over. They need them the most now. Also, Earth Elementalists can help them rebuild their homes …"
"Yes."
The assistant went to make arrangements one by one.
"I hope they are all fine."
The dean sighed.
Afterward …
Beep. There was a sound.
He took a glance and his eyes lit up. The report on the 'ruins of Qing Ming City' was out!
Different from the outside reports, this was an internal report from the police. After a comprehensive investigation and evidence collection, it was a complete preliminary version!
The real official version!
Shush!
The dean flipped it open and looked at the sequence of events that had been sorted out …
Oh.
It turned out that the Spiritualists were the ones who stirred up trouble.
Oh.
It turned out that the corrupt police officers were the ones who stirred up trouble.
Because of the corrupt police officers, the plan of the Spiritualists failed. In the end, both parties had a violent conflict …
That was probably the case.
In the end …
A big shot riding a bull passed by and settled everything.
Well …
It was a very simple report.
From the perspective of the big picture, this was the case. However, no matter who was the one who stirred up trouble, when the dean saw the name Lu Ming …
His expression became somewhat unnatural.
Well …
It was him again.
Hehe.
He vaguely remembered that this was also the case with the Moon Shadow legacy?
And …
In the end, the battle was settled by a group of bulls!
Although on the surface, it was the big shot riding a bull who called them over and it had nothing to do with Lu Ming, according to his understanding …
Hehe.
If this had nothing to do with Lu Ming, he would eat his shoes.
…
Somewhere.
Deep in the mountains.
A round figure was weighing the items he had just obtained in the tent …
Hehe.
Three pieces of jade!
Four pieces of bronze!
"Xin-er!
We have gained a lot of money again. "
The fat man was very excited.
He felt that he was heaven's pride.
It was true.
When others entered the tomb, they would be corroded by the sinister aura … Except for him. Ever since he unintentionally dug something, he felt that fortune had come knocking on his door …
Of course.
That time, he was hunted down quite badly.
Cough.
Sinister aura?
What was that? He had never seen it before!
At this very moment …
He did not notice that outside the tent, two tombs were shining with fluorescent light. A cold and sinister aura surged into the tent but disappeared without a trace in an instant.
In the corner of the tent, the eyes of the lady who was lying there actually moved a little.
"Hey.
These are antiques. "
The fat man looked at the items in his hands excitedly. He did not notice that the jade pendant hanging in front of the lady's chest was shining faintly.
…
Somewhere.
Lu Yan sat cross-legged, faint lights surging around her.
"— Lu Ming is safe."
A message came.
Lu Yan glanced at it from the corner of her eyes and a faint smile emerged on her lips.
Buzz —
Ice-blue lights flashed.
The Sword Embryo that had self-destructed gradually condensed in her hands.
The Frost Sword had returned!
"It's later than I expected."
Lu Yan's expression was calm.
Under normal circumstances, after the Sword Embryo self-destructed, she would be able to condense it again in no time. However, it was very strange this time. She tried many times to condense it but failed …
It seemed that something interesting had happened in the Restart Array.
"It seems that you have developed spiritual intelligence again."
Lu Yan smiled.
"…"
Xiaolan was silent.
"Tell me about the Restart Array."
Lu Yan was calm.
"…"
Xiaolan glanced at Lu Yan.
Eh?
Now that Lu Ming was safe, Lu Yan looked relaxed. It seemed that she did not need to worry about self-destruction for the time being. In that case, there should not be a problem, right?
Also, also …
According to Xiao-Xiaojian, one had to take the initiative to tell others after doing a good deed. Otherwise, Lu Yan might not know …
Hence …
It told Lu Yan about what happened in the Restart Array, as well as how it self-destructed twice to save Lu Ming. It was very serious and detailed.
"It's been hard on you."
Lu Yan patted it.
"…"
Xiaolan was touched.
T-this was the first time that Lu Yan said that it had been hard on her?
Oo … Oo …
It was too touched!
True enough, was it because it did not get along well with Lu Yan previously? It seemed that as long as it got along well with Lu Yan, it was not impossible to communicate with her …
It suddenly felt that it had misunderstood Lu Yan?
After all, Lu Yan was not a devil …
Suddenly …
It noticed that Lu Yan's gaze toward it had become strange.
"M-master?"
It asked cautiously.
"Oh, nothing."
Lu Yan's expression was calm. "I just thought of a good idea to search for information … Look, since you can recover after you condense … If I throw you into the enemy camp to search for information and then self-destruct and report to me, no one will be able to stop me."
“？？？！”
Xiaolan was dumbstruck.
Self-destruct …
Search for information?
It was filled with fear and it burst into tears … Lu Yan was still that scary! Oo … Lu Ming, I miss you.
…
At this moment …
Countless people were paying attention to Qing Ming City.
The higher-ups had issued an order for Qing Ming City to enter the reconstruction phase. They requested everyone to assist Qing Ming City in completing the reconstruction as soon as possible and to compensate for the losses!
This was the most important task at the moment.
The police would be in charge of supporting the operation.
Compensation for demolition …
Alright, they did not have to do the demolition. The main thing was to carry out the compensation work. Most people wanted compensation for their houses, but some people wanted cash …
For example: Lu Ming.
At this moment …
He was fighting for the greatest benefits for himself.
"One million yuan!"
Lu Ming said bluntly.
"Impossible!"
The policeman opposite him wiped his cold sweat. "One million yuan is too much!"
"Why not?"
Lu Ming was furious. "Do you know how much my shop is worth?"
"Well …"
The policeman wiped his sweat. "According to our understanding, your shop is rented …"
"…"
Lu Ming's tone was gloomy. "You guys didn't rescue me in time, but you're very fast in finding out information …"
"…"
The policeman coughed, pretending that he did not hear this.
It was true that the police were at fault in this matter. Everyone had to take the blame.
"What's going on?"
Zhang Wei came out after hearing the news.
"I'm applying for reimbursement."
Lu Ming rolled his eyes.
Cough, cough.
Zhang Wei coughed. "It's impossible to claim reimbursement. Your house is rented … and it happened to be rented for half a year … It happened to be demolished …"
According to his understanding, Lu Ming's rent was due soon …
How could he claim reimbursement?
He even suspected that Lu Ming rented the house at the right time. Otherwise, how could it be so coincidental?
"However …"
He thought about it and said seriously, "I've applied for a special grant for you. Thank you for your contribution to the Restart Array."
Yes.
They were well aware of what Lu Ming had done.
Although the big shot who passed by was the one who made the final move, Lu Ming's contribution from the beginning to the end, especially when he killed those scourges …
"Okay."
Lu Ming was elated.
"Are you guys going to build a new city together?"
Zhang Wei asked.
He was certain that Qing Ming City would become more powerful after this destruction and reconstruction! Those old urban areas that were difficult to demolish had all been destroyed and rebuilt!
Everything could be replanned!
An eighteenth-tier small city in the past would definitely become a new type of city. These two days, there were countless builders and investors who took the initiative to come over …
"No need."
Lu Ming shook his head slightly.
Although it was good to build a city, it was a waste of time!
For Lu Ming and Xiao Bai who were currently in a period of rapid improvement, they would miss the best opportunity to improve if they participated in the construction of the city. They would think about it in the future.
As for where they should go …
Lu Ming was deep in his thoughts.
Buzz —
Buzz —
His wristband suddenly vibrated.
"Master!"
Li Haoran and the rest called. "I heard that something happened in Qing Ming City …"
He was extremely flustered.
It was true!
They had only been away for two days and Qing Ming City had turned into ruins … He heard that there was nothing left in Qing Ming City and there were countless deaths and injuries!
Although they did not have much feelings for this city, their master and senior sister were there!
"It's alright.
Although there was a huge commotion, Xiao Bai and I are fine. "
Lu Ming smiled faintly.
"That's good."
Li Haoran heaved a sigh of relief.
"Where did you guys go?"
Lu Ming asked.
Previously, he was worried that his disciples would be implicated. Later on, he did not see them in the crowd and guessed that they might have gone out.
"Tian Du City."
Li Haoran said, "Zhao Yunshan brought us here to take a look … Oh, there is something that I wanted to report to you but I couldn't contact you these two days."
"Oh?"
Lu Ming was curious. "What's the matter?"
"It's regarding the Sword Card Master Association."
Li Haoran whispered, "With the development of the association, we have some friction with the Card Creators Association. Therefore, we thought …
"Perhaps it's better for the association to be independent.
"However, it is too troublesome for the association to be independent. It is very cumbersome in all aspects. Therefore, we decided to come here to investigate the situation first before informing you!"
Li Haoran said excitedly.
"Oh?"
Lu Ming was tempted. "Has the review been approved?"
He knew about the review. The approval and construction of the association required a large amount of funds. These were all approved by the higher-ups and the review was very strict.
"No."
"We were rejected."
"The higher-ups said that an association with a thousand members does not even have a base. Five or six of you want to destroy the base!"
Li Haoran scratched his head.
Cough, cough.
Lu Ming coughed.
In fact, he had the same thoughts.
It was not that easy to apply for an independent association and a base!
"However …"
Li Haoran was suddenly excited. "Junior Brother Zhao Yunshan personally made a trip and handled the procedures to pay for his own profits and losses. He then bought an Energy Warrior branch in Tian Du City and turned it into the headquarters of the Sword Card Master Association …"
“？？”
Lu Ming was dumbstruck. He only came to his senses after a long time. "So … all of you went to buy a house these two days???"
He was shocked.
He did not expect that when he was in the Restart Array, his disciples actually went to choose the location of the headquarters for the association! In the end, they actually managed to do it!
"Yes, Master."
Li Haoran said excitedly, "We also have a headquarters!"
"…"
Lu Ming was in a trance.
Damn.
To his knowledge, associations that had headquarters were generally very powerful and had founding grandmasters and so on …
Inexplicably …
He had actually reached this stage?
I-I am actually that amazing?!
