Ascension to the Gods

Chapter 289 Paper Man
The words fell.

Zhou Qingyue walked up to Ji Xue, raised her wrist, and activated her identity device.

A high-definition photo appeared on the holographic screen.

That's a girl.

Looking at the photo.

Jiang's pupils contracted slightly.

The girl wore a plain dress and canvas shoes, and looked quite ordinary.

But her bone structure is almost identical to that of her younger sister, Jiang Zhao!
Zhou Lingling was in Taiping Prefecture and had never met Jiang Zhao, but she knew Jiang Jian.

When she saw the girl, she immediately felt something was off, so she secretly took a picture and sent it to Zhou Qingyue.

"When I saw the photo, I almost thought she was your sister."

Zhou Qingyue said, "I had Zhou Lingling investigate. The girl's name is Yao Tong. She originally lived in Anhe Prefecture of Linjiang Prefecture. After the relocation order of the prefectural government was issued, she was resettled in Shangzhou of Taiping Prefecture."

Jiang frowned and murmured, "Yao Tong."

A bad premonition welled up deep in his heart.

Zhou Qingyue continued, "Not long ago, I even sent a message to ask about your sister."

"Your sister was also surprised when she saw the photo."

Hear this.

Jiang Jianxin had a vague idea forming in his mind.

He raised his eyes to look at the holographic screen and said, "You and Jixue stay there and wait for my message."

Communication hang up.

Jiang Jian stared at the photo Zhou Qingyue had forwarded, his brows furrowing.

The girl looked exactly like Jiang Zhao.

However, his eyes and brows lacked some of their spirit and charm, and instead appeared dull and indifferent.

Thinking about it.

The Yinshan Wonderland trembled slightly and stopped before the dimensional barrier.

"Reporting to the Lord of the Realm."

The Night Patrol Envoy appeared and respectfully said, "The Wonderland has reached the edge of Chang'an Prefecture and has ceased operation."

Jiang Jian calmed his mind, held the Ksitigarbha Jade Seal, and said in a deep voice, "There are nine people here. You will personally escort them to the Bridge of Helplessness so that they may be reborn as ghost soldiers. You will also assign someone to guard them."

With a slight flick of his dark robe sleeves, nine streams of light appeared, enveloped by the aura of the Spirit Jade, hovering in front of him.

These dazzling lights are the nine guides completely separated from the rules of Yinshan.

The Night Patrol Envoy stepped forward, carefully took the nine streams of light, and replied, "Please rest assured, Lord, after they pass away, I will definitely send capable people to keep watch from the shadows at all times."

Jiang Jian nodded and said no more. He directly activated the jade seal and used the power of the wondrous realm to open a spatial portal in front of him!
This portal leads to the White Night Palace in the surface world.

It was only a step away from the border of Chang'an Prefecture.

Jiang Jian put away the Earth Treasury Jade Seal, stepped into the spatial portal, and was pulled by a tremendous force, causing his figure to suddenly dissipate.

In an instant.

The immense force of the teleportation dissipated.

Jiang Jian opened his eyes and looked up.

not far away.

The seemingly endless barrier of Chang'an Prefecture came into view.

Chang'an Prefecture contains fragments of Earth's initial star rings.

After being teleported out of the Yinshan Wonderland, one can only land around the prefecture and cannot directly enter it.

Using the Yingtiansi jade token, one can easily pass the verification and enter Chang'an Prefecture.

Jiang Jian activated his identity device, clicked repeatedly, and summoned a drone shuttle.

"Destination: Seventh Realm."

Estimated arrival time: 1 hour and 20 minutes.

A few minutes later, the unmanned shuttle started up. Jiang Jian sat in the cabin, looking down at Chang'an Prefecture through the porthole.

Not long ago, after the Mercury warships launched a surprise attack.

Ordinary beings on the surface of the earth were filled with indignation, and their desire to cultivate surged!

Although the damage caused by this incident was minimized.

However, 3 Earth citizens were still killed or injured.

Among unofficial citizens, the number of dead and injured has exceeded 10!
For the surface world, which is used to peaceful days.

This level of casualties has already caused a huge uproar in the seventy prefectures on Earth, and even throughout the entire planet!

Some lost loved ones, some died tragically, some were innocently caught in the crossfire, and some were brutally murdered.

Hundreds of thousands of images were circulated and forwarded on the forum.

Almost everyone who witnesses the ruthless slaughter of Earth's citizens by these Mercurian beings feels a deep-seated anger and sorrow. The incident caused an uproar!
Some advocates even demanded that the central government of Tianjing send forces to form a revenge fleet and attack Mercury!

But as the central government of Tianjing issued its decrees, one after another, the order was carried out.

The anxiety of billions of Earth's citizens was gradually calmed down.

The message conveyed by Tianjing to the seventy prefectures on the Earth's surface was very clear.

During wartime, the Imperial Star Palace held supreme authority over Earth and Mars.

Whether it's the Imperial Star Palace or the Earth Alliance.

Or perhaps, it is the central hub of the Tianjing in the Earth's surface world.

A war could break out at any time.

They are all well-prepared and have various contingency plans.

As citizens of Earth, we only need to cooperate with the orders of Tianjing and strictly follow the commands.

We are certain to win this battle against the stars.

"The seventh realm has been reached."

The flying shuttle landed in the shipyard and stopped outside the gate of the Seventh Realm.

The hatch opens.

As Jiang Jian stepped off the gangway, Lu Qingqing came to greet him.

She wore a star-embroidered dress, with overlapping hems, and looked up at Jiang Jian with a somewhat complicated expression.

"In any case, I still want to thank you for being able to reopen the Lu family's gates."

Lu Qingqing spoke first.

Behind her lay the Lu family's seven realms.

The entire small world is the private property of the Lu family!
Previously, the Nine Realms Gate was closed, which affected Lu Family Bank's business and caused it considerable losses.

The Lu family banks are located in seventy prefectures across the land, not just in Chang'an Prefecture.

In almost every more prosperous prefecture, there is a branch of the Lu Family Bank.

Its main businesses include banking, pawnbroking, and auctions.

The Seven Realms are not only the Lu family's headquarters, but also the location of the Lu family bank's headquarters.

However, these are not the reasons why the Seven Realms are famous.

The largest auction house on Earth's surface, "Surface Gold Shop," is located inside the Seven Realms World!

Mention the Seven Realms.

The first thing that comes to mind for most people is the "Golden Surface" auction house.

Countless spiritual materials, treasures, weapons, and magical techniques were auctioned off here.

Even items that are prohibited from being auctioned in ordinary auction houses, and even core resources of the Earth, can be legally auctioned here.

For example, level 5 talent orb, level 6 talent orb.

For example, supernatural powers.

For example, planetary-level warships.

For example, the maids of the Divine Palace.

For example, the spiritual treasure.

……

All of this is just the tip of the iceberg.

The Seven Realms are different from the Two Realms.

The Second Realm belongs to the Earth Moon Academy, and for hundreds of years, it has remained completely closed to train the academy's students.

It is a world unto itself, and most of the indigenous inhabitants are completely unaware of it.

The Seven Realms' world portals are open 24/7.

Its technological level, local customs, and architectural style are no different from those of the surface world.

more importantly.

The Seven Realms have no native inhabitants whatsoever.

Nowadays, all the ordinary people living there are descendants of the Lu family, who have multiplied and flourished over hundreds of years.

"To express my gratitude."

“My ancestor has prepared a gift for you.”

Lu Qingqing turned to the side, revealing two figures beside her.

Those were a pair of paper effigies.

The two of them stood gracefully behind, their faces as white as paper, yet their cheeks were strangely flushed.
