Gao Wu: After transforming into a soft girl, I became a calamity?

The group hid in a small alley, watching the chaos outside.

This neighborhood seems to be locked in place by an invisible force.

However, its essence remains the power of [chaos], which is meaningless to Ye Chenyang.

A group of young monks went from house to house, kicking down doors, dragging people out, and then violently searching the rooms.

Finding nothing, they clapped their hands and left, heading towards other unsearched areas.

Clearly, they had sensed the presence of outsiders and began a thorough search.

Judging from the progress, the search has been going on for a while now.

These people were of similar rank to the group Shen Qiuyu had just dealt with, and they had obviously set off from here after discovering the anomaly over there.

If the four were unaware of the situation, they might have thought that Xu Xiaoan's whereabouts had been exposed, leading to the large-scale manhunt.

But with Jiang Mian's reminder just now, all of this seemed particularly deliberate.

Even the monk who approached them earlier seemed to have been deliberately lured there by Xu Xiaoan.

Now, everyone has two choices: either wait for Xu Xiaoan to be "forced out," or actively create a commotion to attract Xu Xiaoan to come over on her own.

All eyes turned to Shen Qiuyu at the same time.

She suddenly felt immense pressure.

Although she knew it was acting, Shen Qiuyu was still a little uncomfortable with suddenly becoming the focus of the team.

"Sister Qiuyu, relax, just keep your usual expression."

As a professional actor, Jiang Mian is well-versed in this art.

Just pick the right person to play, and Shen Qiuyu is usually serious and doesn't smile much, so it's a good fit for him.

"Cough cough."

Shen Qiuyu cleared her throat, calmed herself down, and said calmly:

"Then... let's get started."

Those monks aren't particularly strong, so there's no need to waste time waiting.

As soon as she finished speaking, Yin Mengyao took out the Extreme Blade from her spatial equipment and rushed out of the alley first.

She makes the least noise, so it's most suitable for her to take the lead, so as not to directly alarm more people.

The monks noticed something was wrong and turned around, but before they could react, their bodies were instantly severed.

Their average level was around fourth rank, which was already inflated, so even if there were more of them, they wouldn't be a match for Yin Mengyao.

Before the sharp edge of the blade, they fell like harvested wheat.

The remaining three followed closely behind, but their positions were somewhat peculiar.

Jiang Mian clung to Ye Chenyang's arm in "fear," while Shen Qiuyu took a few steps ahead.

Ye Chenyang glanced sideways at Jiang Mian, the soft touch on his arm was hard to ignore.

He quickly shook off his distracting thoughts, trying hard not to think about anything he shouldn't be thinking about.

By the time the group arrived at the battlefield, Yin Mengyao had already dealt with most of the situation.

The residents who had been pulled out scattered and returned to their houses, peering at them through their windows.

However, after the crowd dispersed, a petite girl remained behind.

Upon seeing the group, she paused for a moment, then her face lit up with surprise, and she staggered toward them.

She wiped her face and transformed into Xu Xiaoan's appearance.

But halfway through the run, Xu Xiaoan seemed to have been running too fast, tripped over his own feet, and fell flat on his face.

So Jiang Mian stepped forward and pulled her along.

"Oh... thank you."

A tear welled up in Xu Xiaoan's eyes, looking like she was frightened, but also like she was overjoyed to finally meet her companion; it looked quite genuine.

From the moment she met those people, she played the role of an ordinary, somewhat naive girl, so it's normal for her to be afraid in this situation.

Even in Jiang Mian's eyes, the acting was quite realistic.

"She's got some skills. But is she testing me?"

The moment Jiang Mian helped her up, he sensed a faint spiritual force.

Before it even touched him, the spiritual energy seemed to be burned and quickly withdrew.

It was probably sensing the aura of "eternal daylight" emanating from the sun's mark.

Strangely, the formless black flames within the [Sun Wheel] seemed to resonate faintly with that spiritual power.

"Heh, you've delivered yourself right to my doorstep?"

She had a vague guess in her heart, but smiled and said:

"You're welcome. Since we've met, let's walk together."

Since Xu Xiaoan has already presented her identity card, perhaps we can try to trick her by luring her to a secluded place.

If all goes well... hehe.

Why do I think some of these things are funny?

"Uh-huh!"

Xu Xiaoan nodded emphatically, her eyes filled with gratitude.

Just now, through a brief physical contact, she tried to probe Jiang Mian's background.

But upon sensing the aura of [Eternal Day], he was startled and quickly withdrew it.

Xu Xiaoan was certain that if his mental power touched that power, the dormant [Eternal Day] power within his soul would be activated, and he would die instantly.

"That's terrifying!"

Unexpectedly, Jiang Mian, who seemed to be the weakest, already possessed the inheritance mark of [Eternal Day].

How much does Ye Chenyang like her that he would give her something so important?!

He was so enthusiastic when he cut himself, he doesn't seem like someone who's love-struck.

Xu Xiaoan couldn't understand this feeling, but Jiang Mian's importance in her heart rose to a new level.

To be able to completely charm this guy, you must have something special about you!

None of these people are easy to deal with!

However, she noticed that after Jiang Mian finished speaking, he seemed to glance at Shen Qiuyu twice, as if he was trying to read her expression.

Shen Qiuyu glanced at her, met her gaze for a few seconds, then looked away, seemingly indifferent.

Jiang Mian seemed to have received tacit approval before leading her back.

With all the irrefutable evidence before him, Xu Xiaoan was completely convinced.

However, now is not the time to expose ourselves; we'll deal with everything once we return to the main world.

After the two returned to the group, Ye Chenyang spoke up:

"Alright, now that everyone's here, let's leave this city and wait for Senior Yang and the others to arrive."

Judging from his appearance, he is still the leader of the team.

Shen Qiuyu remained indifferent, detached from the group.

But Xu Xiaoan noticed that after Ye Chenyang finished speaking, they only set off after Ye Chenyang nodded almost imperceptibly.

She pretended not to see anything and quietly followed Jiang Mian.

Aside from Yin Mengyao, who initially saved her, Jiang Mian was the only one who was truly familiar with her.

The group forced their way through the barrier blocking the street and quickly arrived at the edge of the city.

Ye Chenyang, who was walking in front, suddenly stopped and raised his hand to signal.

"Another barrier?"

Yin Mengyao released her spiritual power to investigate, and found that it was exactly the same as the blocking force from before, except that it had expanded to cover the entire city.

"Let's force a breakthrough."

"OK."

Ye Chenyang nodded, a golden light appeared in his hand, and he pointed it into the air in front of him, stirring up golden ripples.

However, before the barrier could be broken, the darkness above began to surge violently.

Countless black mists converged, eventually outlining a colossal silhouette that reached the heavens and stood on the earth.

It was a three-headed, bizarre Buddha.

Six scarlet eyes looked down at the crowd, and the mere sight of them brought an indescribable sense of oppression.

The surrounding darkness seemed to come alive; the buildings on both sides of the street began to twist and deform, and painful human faces appeared on the walls.

The residents who had been hiding in their homes came out of their houses, knelt down, and worshipped the Buddha statue in the sky.

Their eyes turned pure black, and they murmured incomprehensible ramblings.

"How...how scary."

Xu Xiaoan looked terrified, shrinking and trembling next to Jiang Mian.

"What's this guy doing here?!"

She clearly implied that the other party should stay away from this area as much as possible...

If the "Doomsday" is forced to reveal its identity to someone "unaware of the truth," it might choose to deal with her afterwards!

Xu Xiaoan was aware of this, but since he couldn't directly command Wuming, he could only take it one step at a time.

Before she could react, a bolt of icy blue lightning pierced the night, instantly illuminating the city shrouded in darkness!
