Gu Luoyan pouted, "Tomorrow is Xiu 'er's birthday. How can I just leave like this? Besides, before I came here, I looked for Uncle-Master Mu and wanted to meet the Goddess of Spiritual Thoughts. "
Wan Pingyuan jumped in fright. "Oh my god, why don't you leave after a while? Now the whole Phoenix City is busy with this matter. You just arrived and you want to meet the most important person? This is me. If it were someone else, they would have some ideas about you! "
Gu Luoyan asked curiously, "What happened? How could the situation be so serious? "
"Don't mention it, don't mention it."
Wan Pingyuan had accumulated a lot of bitterness and had nowhere to vent it. He had been holding it in for a long time.
They were all family. At this moment, he could take the opportunity to vent his bitterness. It would be best if he could scare away the superstar's niece.
"Originally, my family wanted me to come here for some gold plating. Of course, they also had the intention to lie low for a while, so they specially chose a small place like Phoenix City that was far away from the emperor. I originally wanted to stay here until the matter of that year was over. Everyone is old now, so I also went back …
"But who would have thought that on my first year here, before I could even settle down, I would encounter an outbreak of Wolf Bandits. I was almost finished on the spot and lost my life without knowing why. Fortunately, someone came to my rescue and helped me to exterminate the Wolf Bandits. Those three years … I can still remember it even in my dreams."
"After successfully eliminating the Wolf Bandits, I had a firm foothold here and lived a comfortable life. The entire journey was smooth, and we didn't encounter any more mishaps. It was quiet and peaceful as if we were in a paradise that stood aloof from worldly affairs. It was truly quite good! "
"But since less than two months ago, things have been popping up one after another, making my heart turn cold."
"First, the Goddess of Spiritual Thoughts found traces of the Greedy Wolf Shaman Sect's disciples. Then, the news of the Army Destroyer's ambush broke out in Second High. Things suddenly became sensational, and I started to have a headache."
"Then, step by step … I found out that the person who helped me to eliminate the Wolf Bandits was actually a Star Master of the Umno Alliance. Everything that happened at that time was all arranged by him. The so-called chance encounter was all a setup …"
"In a big battle, three Nascent Soul cultivators and one Cloud Transformation cultivator died! Furthermore, it ended so abruptly and without rhyme or reason … "
Wan Pingyuan felt that his emotions were about to collapse.
"All of this was caused by the external forces of the Umno Alliance. Dealing with the foreign races is only natural, there's nothing wrong with that. However, the natives of Phoenix City haven't stopped either. The richest family in the city, the Meng Family, and the thousand-year-old Ning Family, have been causing trouble like crazy …"
"These two families are the pillars of Phoenix City. Their influence is huge. My head is getting bigger and bigger!"
"I don't know if it was a coincidence or intentional, but the Star Shield General Administration also got involved at this critical juncture. Then, the Ning Family's ancestral grave collapsed, and the iconic building of the Meng Family's headquarters in Phoenix City was about to collapse …"
"If we count carefully, we don't know how many members of the Umno Alliance are hiding in Phoenix City right now. Whether it's our side or the Umno Alliance's experts, it can be said that the more they gather, the stronger they become, especially in these ten days!"
"Now, no one is at ease with anyone. They're all afraid that there's a Umno Alliance spy by their side."
"Now in Phoenix City, the Umno Alliance's people are Greedy Wolf, Pojun, Seven Kills, Zuo Fu, and it's said that there's also a mysterious Star Emissary … Her cultivation is at least at the Cloud Transformation Realm, or even at the peak of the Cloud Transformation Realm …"
"And the people that the Star Shield General Administration arranged here, there are two Cloud Transformation Realm members of the Dragon Blood Team … plus the help of the city's experts …"
Wan Pingyuan only felt that his gallbladder was about to be broken by his own sigh. As he spoke, he felt bitter in his mouth.
"And the core of all of this is the rumor that there's a Phoenix Vein in this city … The Phoenix Vein Soul Cleansing Phenomenon is about to happen in these few days …"
"And the main target of the Phoenix Pulse Soul Cleansing Phenomenon is the Spiritual Goddess that you're very interested in."
Wan Pingyuan spread out his hands, "In this chaotic situation, what do you want me to do? You still want to meet the Spiritual Goddess? Isn't that asking for trouble? This is absolutely not doable! "
Gu Luoyan frowned and said in a low voice, "It seems that the situation is really troublesome …"
"Who says it isn't!"
Wan Pingyuan slapped his thigh, "Think about it, Cloud Transformation Realm experts causing trouble, and it's not just one or two of them. The time of planning and setting up can be traced back to decades … This kind of case, even in the capital, can be called a big case!"
"And this kind of big case is concentrated in my Phoenix City, a small place where the emperor is far away and even rabbits don't shit …"
"And it's under my rule!"
"Tell me, how unlucky do you think I am to be the next Governor?"
"Isn't this just being unlucky?"
Wan Pingyuan wanted to cry, but no tears came out. He walked to the door and pointed at the night sky, "Do you see that … with your eyesight, you should be able to see … that was once the tallest building in Phoenix City, the address of the Meng Corporation's headquarters."
Gu Luoyan's gaze landed, and her face was filled with shock, "I can see very clearly. The moonlight today is okay, but why does it look like … it's a bit slanted, are my eyes playing tricks on me?"
Wan Pingyuan smiled miserably, "Your eyes are playing tricks on you, how good would it be if your eyes were playing tricks on you. Yesterday it was still normal, but today it's like this …"
"The sky is tilted to this extent? It's about thirty degrees, isn't it? "Gu Luoyan was shocked.
"This is a big problem!"
"It's not just a big problem."
Wan Pingyuan shook his head, "This landmark building of Phoenix City is already on the verge of collapse! Perhaps it will happen tonight, or perhaps it will happen tomorrow morning, either way … this building is destined to be gone. "
"As for the Meng Corporation, as the star company of the entire Central Plains, all kinds of evidence of tax evasion and other crimes have been placed all over the table today …"
"I think the Meng Corporation will have a hard time getting past this."
"The day of the Phoenix Pulse Spirit hasn't come yet, and the waves haven't been completely set off yet. A family with a legacy of two thousand years has already been destroyed … I think they'll have no descendants."
"The top star company, the Meng Corporation, is most likely going to follow in the footsteps of the Ning family, and completely decline."
"Once the Phoenix Pulse Spirit rises, the experts of the Umno Alliance and the Astral Souls will fight, and the battle will be unprecedentedly fierce! At that time, the end of the world will come for Phoenix City, and the people will be plunged into misery and suffering. "
Wan Pingyuan was almost begging, "Yan 'er, I know you've been protected since you were young, and you don't have any concept of these things, but listen to your uncle … go!"
"The matter this time is too big! I really can't handle it! "
"I'm in the middle of it, and I can't leave, but you still have a chance."
Wan Pingyuan sighed bitterly, "If the Umno Alliance takes advantage of the Phoenix Pulse Spirit this time … I'm afraid even the King of Zhongyuan will be unlucky."
"Right now, I've gathered all the experts of the Governor's Office. During this time, no one is allowed to go out, and no one is allowed to lose anyone. We're just preparing for the battle of the Phoenix Pulse Spirit. We'll fight with our backs to the wall, and hope for a fluke …"
Wan Pingyuan sighed softly.
He seemed to have smelled the thick scent of blood of that battle.
It was impossible for that battle not to have casualties, and it was even more impossible for there to be fewer casualties!
And as long as one died in that battle, it was basically a top expert whose death would cause heartache!
"Uncle, you probably don't know, but there are two Qi Divination Grandmasters by my side."
Gu Luoyan said in a low voice, "When they entered the city, they saw something … The fengshui of this city, so far, has evolved into a chaotic situation, and evil spirits cover the sky."
Wan Pingyuan narrowed his eyes, "Qi Divination? There's such a thing? "
"Yes."
Gu Luoyan showed hesitation, "The reason why I'm not willing to leave is actually because I'm in a dangerous situation, but I don't know anything about it, so I don't dare to speak rashly. But uncle also said that the crux of the problem is the Phoenix Pulse Spirit, and there must be a reason … Why not let the two experts take a look, maybe they'll learn something."
Wan Pingyuan thought for a moment, "That's reasonable … It's true that there's no harm in taking a look, it'll be beneficial."
Gu Luoyan turned his head, "Go and invite Elder Gao and Elder Wang."
Beside him, a breeze moved slightly, and then there was no other movement. That breeze was only the strength of a person's breath, and if a cultivator with sensitive senses did not pay attention to it, they would not be able to detect it at all!
Wan Pingyuan's eyes were filled with surprise, "Yan 'er, your grandfather sent this to you?"
"Yes, grandfather sent these two masters to protect me."
"Your grandfather is really good to you." Wan Pingyuan praised from the bottom of his heart.
The legendary Divine Shadow Guards had always been the most mysterious group of people in the upper echelons of the Yanwu Empire. Their duty was only to protect!
And only these people had the right to be called Divine Shadows.
Those who were a level lower could only be called shadows. Shadows could never reach the level of perfection, and also, shadows left behind traces.
Divine Shadows, on the other hand, did not leave any traces!
After a moment, two tall and thin old men were led into the living room.
"Governor Wan, I've heard a lot about you."
The two of them bowed in greeting.
"I'm Gao Wencheng, Wang Shiyu. Greetings, Governor Wan."
"Masters, you're too polite."
Wan Pingyuan said, "I heard from Yan 'er that the two of you have a lot of insight into the current situation of our city. I'm here to listen to the two of you. Please enlighten me."
Gao Wencheng smiled faintly and said, "Governor Wan may not be able to understand if I just talk about it here. The most direct way to understand the feng shui pattern of a place is to go to the sky and choose a suitable angle to look down on the entire situation from above."
"Oh?"
Wang Shiyu pondered, "I went to the sky to take a look just now, but it's a pity that I'm in the middle of the city and can't see clearly. The current plan should be to find a high place where we can look down on the entire Phoenix City. In my opinion, it's best to look from the north to the south. "
