Card: I Rebuild Five Thousand Years of Chinese Civilization in Another World

Chapter 59 Breaking Defense
"Yes! With the Baina Card, you can put your treasures into the card." Xie Yuwei said affectionately.

"However, after you put the items into the card, you must keep the card safe! If the card is lost, your treasure is lost too."

Xie Yufei quickly and carefully put the card into her arms.

After thinking it over, she felt it wasn't safe, so she said to Xie Yuwei and Xie Yuchen, "Brother, sister, I'll sew a pouch, a pouch specifically for holding cards."

"Okay!" Xie Yuwei encouraged her.

Xie Yuchen is using an intermediate-level Hundred-Narco Card, which has ten times more space than a basic-level Hundred-Narco Card. He now has thirty cubic meters of space, which he finds very large. He wants to store all the things in his room in the Hundred-Narco Card.

Just as Xie Yuchen and Xie Yuwei were becoming interested in the Baina Cards, the two of them took the cards and went off to study them privately.

Xie Yuwei originally planned to research weapon cards after developing the Baina Card.

However, the card spirit masters from last night made Xie Yuwei feel that she needed to study the disguise cards.

With the disguise card, she might be able to conceal her identity.

Once Xie Yuwei has an idea, she will act on it.

After making breakfast and eating her fill, she started studying the cards.

Nanwen Village in the morning:

After the shock of last night, Ming Zihui and the others completely trusted the defenses of the ten-thousand-year-old tree demon.

So early in the morning, Ming Zihui didn't need Tie Shanhe and the others to follow him; he wandered around the village by himself.

He wandered among the village's aunts and uncles, and heard the most information about Xie Yuwei and her two siblings.

It's said that Xie Yuwei and Xie Yuchen are already advanced and intermediate Card Spirit Masters at such a young age. It's truly because their parents have excellent bloodlines that they have such outstanding children.

Ming Zihui listened and felt something was off.
Even if the parents are outstanding, they can't give birth to a daughter like Xie Yuwei, right?

As Ming Zihui was deep in thought, he suddenly saw Lu Ban walking through the village.

Sensing the card information on Lu Ban's body, he stood there in shock.

This is--

Human-shaped cards?

This is truly something I've never heard of or seen before.

"Who is that?" Ming Zihui pointed at Lu Ban and asked the aunts and uncles around him.

Seeing his shocked expression, the village woman beside him knew that he had already figured out that Lu Ban was actually a card player.

The village woman didn't seem to care, but said with a hint of pride, "Oh! Him? He's the card made by Sister Wei, Mr. Lu Ban."

The villagers all respect Lu Ban as their teacher.

What Ming Zihui heard was: "It was Sister Wei who created the card."

In an instant, the fog that had been shrouding his mind dissipated.

The card maker that the Marquis had been trying to protect and hide was actually Xie Yuwei.

No wonder these new types of cards always appear first in Zhoushan Town.

No wonder Nanwen Village has a ten-thousand-year-old tree spirit and a local earth god...

All of this has nothing to do with the Marquis.

This is Xie Yuwei's own card.

Ming Zihui understood the truth and was very excited, but he never thought of exposing Xie Yuwei.

Marquis Weiyuan did a good job; that's how you protect her.

But that's how she grew up in the village...

Isn't this just blocking our access to information?

This is not good for a child's development at all.

Ming Zihui felt that he needed to talk to the Marquis.

With this idea in mind, he followed the example of the villagers and made a wish to the tree spirit.

The tree spirit treats everyone equally; as long as it senses that the person seeking a leaf is sincere and kind-hearted, it will grant them a leaf. Without exception, Ming Zihui received a leaf.

As he watched the shimmering leaves fall into his hand, he found it hard to imagine how such verdant leaves could have become the weapon that shot into the mountains like a rain of arrows last night.

"Thank you!" Ming Zihui thanked the tree spirit from afar.

The tree spirit shook the branch above his head in response.

After obtaining the tree spirit's leaf, Ming Zihui went to town alone.

Those people sent men to intercept and kill him last night, but they failed. They probably won't take any further action today.

Ming Zihui successfully arrived at Qi Pawnshop in town and found Marquis Weiyuan inside.

Ming Zihui simply couldn't accept seeing the renowned Marquis Weiyuan actually working as a shopkeeper in a small store.

When Ming Zihui appeared in the shop, Manager Huang saw him immediately.

"Why are you still in Zhoushan Town? Can that minor county magistrate protect you?" Manager Huang joked.

Ming Zihui got straight to the point, saying, "I currently live in Nanwen Village."

As he spoke, he took out the leaf that the tree spirit had given him.

Shopkeeper Huang: ...

His eyes grew deep.

Seeing that he was becoming wary, Ming Zihui smiled and said, "You don't need to hide it anymore. I know everything you need to know."

"What do you know?" Manager Huang asked dangerously.

He weighed in his mind the importance of Ming Zihui and Xie Yuwei to the human race.

Ming Zihui's Qi Sea was damaged, and the imperial physicians of the Ling Kingdom could not cure him.

Rather than letting Sister Wei'er expose her identity, it's better to kill her, a cripple, to silence her.

Seeing the murderous intent in Manager Huang's eyes, Ming Zihui said with a smile, "You don't need to be so wary of me. If I wanted to expose her identity, the first person I would go to would be Hong Xue, not you, Lord Marquis."

"Didn't you notice that I came alone?"

Manager Huang slightly restrained his murderous intent.

Ming Zihui said to Manager Huang, "Yesterday I was attacked on my way to Tiansheng City, and that girl saved me."

“Last night, those people came back with a vengeance, but it was the ancient tree spirit of Nanwen Village that saved me.”

That child saved my life twice; I will not repay kindness with enmity.

Manager Huang frowned and asked, "Was Nanwen Village attacked last night? Did Sister Wei intervene? Has her identity been exposed?"

He had hidden her identity as a celestial card maker very well, but when the enemy came to kill him, Sister Wei exposed her own identity in order to save him.
Seeing that Manager Huang's expression was not good, Ming Zihui quickly said, "My lord, there is no need to panic. That child did not make a move."

He described the events of last night to Manager Huang.

Manager Huang was stunned for a moment after hearing this.

Is the ancient tree spirit really that powerful?

Even the Saint-level cards from the Spirit Kingdom aren't this powerful, are they?
His breathing became rapid.

This incredibly powerful, ancient tree spirit has a hundred of these...

Seeing the excitement on his face, Ming Zihui knew that he still had the Ten Thousand Year Tree Demon Card.

He earnestly said to Manager Huang, "Lord Marquis, if you have the Ten Thousand Year Tree Demon card, I implore you to use it on the Heavenly Fortress."

Manager Huang looked at Ming Zihui in astonishment. He had already retired from that place, so why was he still thinking about it?
Ming Zihui solemnly said to Manager Huang, "My lord, Tianlei can't hold out much longer!"

"Given your status, you should know the consequences of breaching the Heavenly Fortress."

Manager Huang's face turned deathly pale.

With the Heavenly Fortress breached, the human race's defenses will also be breached, and the human race will never have a place of peace again.

Before long, the extinction of humanity will be inevitable...
