The commercial plane pierced through the clouds, continuing to correct its direction and altitude as it drew closer to the surface of the sea.
Zhang Yingying looked at the scenery through the porthole from within the cabin. She mumbled casually, "Is there going to be thunder? The wings seem to be charged."
The commercial plane had already pierced through the thick clouds before she finished speaking. The field of view below suddenly opened up.
The Jadeite Glow was like a small and exquisite steel box on the roaring sea surface. It was practically one with the leaden sea surface. Only the fluorescent lines on the landing platform at the top of the ship gave a rather clear indication.
The commercial plane communicated with the cruise control tower and began to descend. The noise in the cabin grew louder at this time.
"Is the engine broken?" Zhang Yingying subconsciously mentioned this and immediately spat a few times. But no matter what, the noise was there and it was getting louder.
Meng Chong, who sat across from Zhang Yingying, unconsciously frowned. "It's not sound waves. It's not purely..."
He paused for a moment and made a judgment. "There's power at work on the mental plane."
"He's fighting with someone?" The 'he' Zhang Yingying spoke of was clearly referring to Luo Nan.
Zhang Yingying furrowed her brows as she spoke. She did her best to sense the details on the mental plane. "It's not the middle of winter. It's like the clouds above. There's going to be a sudden explosion of thunder... Huh?"
Zhang Yingying inexplicably felt a bit familiar. She moved closer to the porthole and looked outside. The cruise ship continued to approach. It seemed to grow larger and larger. The visual effect was quite astonishing under the support of relative speed.
But looking at it this way, there didn't seem to be anything too out of the ordinary.
"It shouldn't be. Otherwise, this ship would have sunk long ago."
Meng Chong did his best to find a more accurate adjective. "Yeah, it's like..."
"Deterrence!"
Zhang Yingying clapped her hands. She came to this conclusion faster than Meng Chong.
It was for no other reason than the fact that she had prior experience with this. Last year on New Year's Eve, Luo Nan had played this move at Aurora Cloud City. His tyrannical will pervaded the void like a soundless thundercloud, suppressing all sides and causing chaos.
Only a few months had passed. Zhang Yingying's memories were still fresh in her mind. A slight reminder triggered her memories.
"In the end... we still have to fight!"
Zhang Yingying still remembered that there were a few troublesome characters at Aurora Cloud City back then, but not many. She was on her home turf.
But now, above the boundless ocean...
"The Abyss District is not peaceful either." Although Meng Chong was a piece of meat.
Beside him, there were also no Extraordinary species. However, he could use the Bloodsoul Temple in the Abyss District to catch some strange movements of this level.
"Abyss District …"
This situation indirectly confirmed Zhang Yingying's worries. She really wanted to observe more directly. The problem was that she didn't have a tool similar to the Bloody Soul Temple, so she could only look at Her Majesty Empress Wu.
"Making a gentleman's agreement with him is more troublesome than I expected." Under Zhang Yingying's gaze, Her Majesty Empress Wu's gaze left the scroll in her hand, and she shook her head slightly.
Zhang Yingying's eyes widened. "They're really fighting?"
"It doesn't involve individual domains. Connie is quite gentle most of the time. Star Shaman probably doesn't want to express his position that quickly... The remaining few are all fleshly bodies. Unless Luo Nan fights his way to their door, they probably won't do anything."
"Uh, there are a few Extraordinaries on the ship..." Zhang Yingying was shocked at first, but she did not receive an answer. She blurted out, "There's nothing Luo Nan can't do!"
"Maybe."
As they spoke, the business jet landed steadily in maglev mode. Her Majesty Empress Wu put away the scriptures, rolled them up, got up, and walked out.
"Let's go take a look. I hope I won't regret it."
"Where's Luo Nan?"
As soon as Zhang Yingying got off the plane, she grabbed the receptionist and asked. But how could the receptionist know that? She stammered and couldn't say a complete sentence.
Zhang Yingying could not be blamed for this. Luo Nan had a water vapor avatar, and his communications wristband was several thousand kilometers away. If he picked up the call, it was his ability, but if he didn't pick up the call, it was normal — anyway, he didn't pick up this time.
Zhang Yingying was a little anxious.
Fortunately, Her Majesty Empress Wu was confident. "Go to Area C12."
There was a clear direction for them to take off directly from the top deck. They took a car there, and it didn't take long for the group to arrive at their destination. They saw the work that Luo Nan had just completed.
The question was, where was he?
"Where's Luo Nan?" Zhang Yingying stared blankly at the messy display in front of her.
"He's probably looking for someone. Let's go."
"Then why did we come here for?"
"Before I die from anger from the trouble he caused, I need to adjust my state of mind …. It's only after seeing this that I feel like I'm not stupid." Her Majesty Empress Wu pinched Zhang Yingying's cheek and headed straight for the display.
Quite a few spectators were attracted to the display after Luo Nan left, but the vast majority of people were blocked outside.
The on-site staff members were blocked outside.
No one stopped Her Majesty Empress Wu when she walked over. It wasn't that the on-site staff had good eyesight …. In fact, it was more like they were blind.
In any case, Her Majesty Empress Wu slowly arrived at the edge of the platform. She didn't go up, just tapping the scripture scroll in her hand against the palm of her other hand. It was as if she was counting a beat. She seemed to be deep in thought.
Zhang Yingying and Meng Chong followed her to the front. They could not help but gasp in admiration at this warped yet neat layout. As ability users, they could not help but consider what they would do if they were in her place. What would they do in order to realize all of this?
But in the end, they could only look at each other and shake their heads.
"How did he manage to do this?" Zhang Yingying asked, not understanding.
"Probably …. It's an ability that can continuously affect the structure of space and time." This answer was quite clear. However, the one who responded to Zhang Yingying wasn't Her Majesty Empress Wu.
It was a woman's voice, but there were a few intentional or unintentional breaks in her words. There was a hissing sound between her words. It carried a mysterious and even sinister flavor.
Zhang Yingying jumped in fright. She suddenly turned around and saw a woman wrapped in a wide white robe standing behind her. The woman had just lifted the hood off her head, revealing a delicate and pretty face.
An explanation was an explanation, but the woman's gaze wasn't on Zhang Yingying at all. She only stared at Her Majesty Empress Wu, who had just turned around. She spoke with an exceptionally cold tone.
"Wu Zhao, this is the big trouble you've brought."
"Yeah, Connie. This is the big trouble you've stirred up."
Zhang Yingying stuck out her tongue. She very consciously moved closer to Meng Chong.
Without a doubt, the woman standing behind Zhang Yingying and the others was the world's top barrier grandmaster. She had a transcendent status in the ability user association, Lady Constance Dahler.
In a sense, she was the enemy of Zhang Yingying and the others.
Zhang Yingying also noticed that other than Constance, there was also a gentle-looking man who had silently arrived.
He wore a casual suit. His figure was tall and straight. He could be considered handsome, and he was smiling from ear to ear. But the problem was that his face was even paler than Constance's. It had reached an unhealthy level.
This caused his smile to appear somewhat sinister.
Although Zhang Yingying had never seen him in person, she had seen the information. She immediately made a judgment.
Star Sorcerer. There was no escaping!
