Controlling the Five Thunders and the Two Worlds

Chapter 383 I'll Give You a Chance Too

Aaron, of course, couldn't hear the two's discussion. At this moment, he just looked at Gu Zhao aggressively, with a confident smile in his eyes, and held up a finger in front of Gu Zhao.

"You only have one minute to consider." Aaron felt he was being very kind; he usually only gave people ten seconds in the United States.

But Gu Zhao gave him face and made a decision in no time, saying, "I've thought it over."

“A wise choice.” Aaron nodded knowingly.

Then he saw Gu Zhao also raise a finger, "I'll take you to a place, and if you can come out alive, I'll give you a chance to compete with me fairly."

Aaron was taken aback. "What did you say?"

As soon as he finished speaking, he watched helplessly as Gu Zhao reached out and grabbed his collar.

"Get your dirty hands off!"

Aaron wanted to say those words, but he found himself suddenly unable to make a sound. There was a lump in his throat, and although his mouth and tongue were moving, it was as if he was performing a pantomime.

Then he tried to push Gu Zhao's hand away, but found that he was completely unable to move. He was bound by something invisible, and even if he tensed all his muscles, he couldn't lift a single finger.

Aaron's eyes finally showed a look of terror, and then he watched as Gu Zhao's hand grabbed his collar.

Gu Zhao grabbed Aaron by the collar and waved to Xiao Ya, "You guys go get some late-night snacks first, I'll come back for you after you're done."

The next moment, in the eyes of Xiao Ya, Jiang Shishi and Eileen, Gu Zhao pulled Aaron into the air after saying those words and disappeared when they were less than two or three meters from the ground.

Jiang Shishi had an "I knew it" look on her face, and Xiao Ya showed no sympathy.

Only Eileen's eyes widened suddenly, and she couldn't help but blurt out a curse, "WTF?"

Xiao Ya and Jiang Shishi looked at Eileen.

Eileen looked at Xiao Ya and Jiang Shishi.

"Are your boyfriends superpowered?" Eileen blurted out their relationship without thinking.

Xiao Ya pursed her lips and didn't say anything.

Jiang Shishi raised an eyebrow and asked, "Are you envious?"

“I’m envious,” Eileen said honestly. “Who isn’t envious of Louise Lane!”

At this point, Eileen suddenly realized something and looked at Xiao Ya, "So you were protected by Tianxia's special organization not because of Master Yihong, but because of your boyfriends?"

Xiao Ya remained smiling and silent, while Jiang Shishi took Eileen's hand and said, "Let's go eat hot pot!"

A moment later, a Smart car drove away from the concert hall, followed silently by a BYD.

"Mr. Gu, is there some ulterior motive behind revealing your identity to Eileen?" the woman asked.

"Could it be that you've set your sights on a foreign woman?" the man joked.

"Can't you think of anything serious?" the woman said irritably.

"The real issue is that Mr. Gu clearly intends to target Aaron. To avoid causing trouble for his girlfriend and us, he had Eileen relay the truth back to draw attention away from us." The man saw through the truth at a glance.

"Huh? That makes sense!" the woman thought for a moment. "I thought he really had his eye on the foreign woman."

"Can't you think of anything serious?" the man complained. "Master Yansong has already made his appearance in Kabia. The research institute is clearly becoming less and less willing to hide anything."

The woman turned around and said, "My sister-in-law and I are best friends."

"I was wrong." The man readily admitted his mistake.

……

While the others were either happy, shocked, or bored, Aaron only wanted to survive. He wanted to beg for mercy, but he couldn't make a sound.

He tried to signal with his eyes, but Gu Zhao didn't even look at him.

Then he found himself being grabbed by the collar and suddenly lifted off the ground, flying higher and higher until he could see the lights of thousands of homes below, the sun slowly rising in the west, and the vast horizon of the blue planet.

The next moment, they suddenly burst into extreme speed and flew westward.

There was no sonic boom, no chill, and no cold wind.

If it weren't for the western sun growing brighter and the mountains, rivers, lakes, and seas rushing past him, he wouldn't even feel himself moving; it would feel as if he were sitting on a large sofa in his living room.

Soon, they caught up with the westward-moving sun. Aaron, who was good at geography, could even tell that they had left the border of Tianxia. They then flew over deserts, plateaus, the Caspian Sea, and across the vast plains of Mesopotamia, arriving at a place near the Mediterranean Sea.

Aaron recognized where he was, but he didn't understand why Gu Zhao had brought him here.

Gu Zhao smiled slightly, took the phone from Aaron's hand, and the translation software on it was still running.

“I am a Taoist practitioner, cultivating the Tao and the mind. If your hands are not stained with blood, I will not kill you with my own hands.”

"Give me ten million, and I'll give you a chance."

"I think you should recognize this place. It's a slum with less than 400 square kilometers of land, but it was crammed with two million people. Well, it's basically ruins now."

"I will disable your ability to speak, take away your belongings, and leave you here."

Seeing the fear in Aaron's eyes, Gu Zhao said calmly, "I keep my promise. If you can return to Tianxia alive from here, I will give you a chance to compete with me fairly."

"I don't want to compete with you! I just want to go home!" Aaron cried out in his heart, but he couldn't utter a single syllable.

The next moment, he saw Gu Zhao gently release his grip on his collar, and then his body felt light as he fell downwards.

"what--"

Gu Zhao calmly looked down. Just as Aaron fell, in a certain open space, several people in military uniforms were grinning maliciously at the ragged people fighting over flour in the middle of the open space.

They raised their guns.

Then thunder rumbled in the sky.

"Boom!"

A handsome blond man who couldn't speak landed in the center of the ruins.

On the other side of the open ground, several people in military uniforms were struck by lightning and turned into charred remains.

Gu Zhao looked down and then around at the situation. He could just do what he could, but he had no intention of acting as a savior, because people must unite and save themselves in order to have a future and hope.

For example, if the land of China had sunk back then, it wouldn't have been his turn to activate the Five Thunder Token.

"Whoosh-"

A streak of light flew eastward once more.

……

On spring and summer nights in Guangzhou, the city is brightly lit and bustling with people, presenting a peaceful and prosperous scene.

"This tripe is so tender!"

"Beef balls are delicious too."

Xiao Ya, Jiang Shishi, and Eileen were eating hot pot at an old restaurant in the city when a figure appeared next to them, pulled out the last chair, and sat down, saying, "Order me two more servings of beef and fish slices."
