SSS-level catastrophe? That's my wife!

The person beside him respectfully inquired, "Elder Ge, Qin Jiang said he's already on his way."

"Should we add Daylight to our seven-on-two lineup?"

"Qin Jiang is a man of deep thoughts; involving him is a warning to him."

Elder Ge's tone returned to calm as he gazed into the distance: "Tonight marks the end of the Zhen'e Court. What is the plan for the Holy Capital?"

"Our men have already infiltrated the area around the Zhen'erting Building. Once this battle is over, Zhen'erting will cease to exist."

"Hahaha, good!" Elder Ge's sinister laughter echoed on the north city wall.

……

The top floor of the White House in the Holy Capital.

Qin Jiang sat upright in the leather chair, his voice tinged with a hint of helplessness: "Lou Ping, Kong Nan, you have followed me all this time; you are not only my confidants but also my brothers."

"What do you think about this? Speak freely, don't hold back."

Lou Ping stepped forward, his tone respectful: "Chief, we've already delayed for half an hour. If the elders blame us..."

"None of this matters!"

Qin Jiang waved his hand to interrupt, his eyes sharp: "I want to hear your most honest thoughts: should we go or not?"

The air went silent for a moment...

After a moment, Kong Nan broke the silence: "Chief, I don't think we should go."

"This kind of internal strife will only make the world more unstable."

Lou Ping immediately chimed in, "I agree."

"This order itself is strange, but... we have no choice but to go, Chief."

Qin Jiang suddenly laughed, a self-deprecating laugh: "What exactly does the Elders' Council want to do?"

"The Zhen'e Court is already a dying candle; why must it be wiped out completely?"

Why would awakened beings kill each other to this extent?

"This is harmful to humanity in every way..." He shook his head and sighed at the end.

"Then, Chief, we..." Kong Nan asked tentatively.

"Go, orders cannot be disobeyed, but there are many belated grounds for force majeure."

Qin Jiang smiled and added, "You all get ready first, we'll meet in half an hour."

"Yes!" the two replied in unison.

……

Outside Yunjing Residential Area.

A black Maybach was parked on the side of the road, its headlights glaring in the darkness.

The passenger door was suddenly flung open, and Lin Mu got in, his eyes flashing with murderous intent. He said in a deep voice:

"What exactly happened? How is Qinghe now?"

"boom--"

The engine roared to life, and the Maybach sped off.

The front and rear license plates were quickly covered by black cloth at that moment.

Gu Cang exhaled a smoke ring, stubbed out his cigarette, and said with a serious expression, "The specifics are still unclear; it was a message sent by Lü Ping."

"Ning Mo and Feng Xi originally planned to go alone. If it weren't for the huge commotion caused by that note, we might still be completely unaware of it."

"The fact that the elders dare not act rashly shows that the forces behind them have finally surfaced," Lin Mu said coldly.

"Put this on," Gu Cang said, tossing a black robe in front of Lin Mu.

"Hmm?" Lin Mu looked at Gu Cang in confusion, only then noticing that he was wearing a black robe, but the hood was not on...

"We don't know their strength yet. If we can't wipe them out in one fell swoop, we should try not to expose our identities."

Lin Mu nodded: "Yes. Will we make it?"

"The distance between us and Yucheng is about the same as the distance between Shengjing City and Yucheng. Drive faster, no problem."

After saying that, Gu Cang floored the accelerator.

The roar of the Maybach, like the howl of a beast, pierced the night.

……

Northern District of Saint Capital.

In a room on the third floor of the Sun and Moon Cafe, Lu Mingzai said solemnly, "Boss, the entire top-level combat force of Zhen'e Court has been mobilized."

Zhao Shanhe raised an eyebrow, his aura authoritative: "What's going on?"

"It's still unclear, boss. Should we follow up?" Lu Mingzai pressed.

Just then, my phone beeped with a message notification.

Zhao Shanhe picked up his phone in confusion, and his pupils contracted the moment he opened the message. He stood up and said, "I'll go myself."

"Boss, let me and Chen Yong catch up!" Lu Mingzai hurriedly caught up.

Zhao Shanhe paused, turned around, patted him on the shoulder, and laughed, "You guys stay put, it's not that serious."

"But..." Lu Mingzai's words were interrupted.

Zhao Shanhe raised an eyebrow: "What? I can't order you around anymore?"

Lu Mingzai lowered his head: "Understood, boss."

……

At midnight, the Maybach sped along the highway like a beast.

"It's starting to drizzle. I heard it's raining heavily in Yucheng," Gu Cang said in a hoarse voice.

"This is a rain that will send them off in their grave." Lin Mu had barely finished speaking when his phone beeped with a message notification.

Lin Yan: Brother, are you asleep? I'm planning to take a day off tomorrow. Do you have time to take me out?

Lin Mu: I'll come back in a few days. I'm busy these days.

Lin Yan: Huh? What are you busy with, bro?

Lin Mu glanced at it and put the phone aside.

In the independent dormitory of the R&D base.

Lin Yan lay face down on the bed, her two white legs swinging back and forth behind her, looking puzzled.

It's been 30 minutes, why haven't you replied to my message yet?

She rolled over and lay flat on her back, staring at the ceiling and muttering, "Wait a minute, what's so busy about my brother going to school? Tomorrow and the day after are his days off!"

Lin Yan became even more convinced of her guess: her brother must be doing something shady in secret, humph!

The next second, she smiled and opened another chat window.

Lin Yan: Is sister-in-law asleep? Is she home?

Su Nianhe: Not yet, what's wrong?

Lin Yan: My brother said he's been busy these past few days. Does your sister-in-law know what he's been up to?

Su Nianhe: Really? I don't know either.

A moment later, Su Nianhe put down her phone, her beautiful eyes sparkling.

She walked outside the restaurant with a red umbrella. In Yucheng, a torrential downpour was underway, accompanied by lightning and thunder.

Xiong Hei's figure approached from afar. He walked up to Su Nianhe, bowed his head, and said, "Your Majesty."

"Has anything unusual happened in Yucheng recently?" Su Nianhe asked in a cold voice.

Xiong Hei paused for a moment, then truthfully reported how he had followed the abandoned Black Iron Prison all the way there.

"I see," Su Nianhe said, a look of understanding flashing in her eyes. "Go ahead."

"Yes." After Xiong Hei left, she looked southwest of Yu City, her voice cold: "So impulsive, it seems your strength has almost recovered?"

As soon as she finished speaking, two wings suddenly appeared behind her, the left wing crimson and the right wing gold.

"Alas, I wonder when I will be fully recovered... Lin Mu, you really are a worry."

Her figure disappeared silently into the rain.

……

At 2:00 a.m., the roar of several cars broke through the rain curtain of Yucheng and stopped in the old town a few kilometers away from the Black Iron Prison.

"boom--"

As the car door slammed shut, Ning Mo, dressed in the Zhen'e Ting uniform, walked to the front of the group, his voice heavy with barely concealed gravity: "Gentlemen..."

"Whoosh—"

Thirteen figures almost simultaneously drew their weapons from their waists or backs, the cold light flashing in the rainy night.

The air was instantly filled with a suffocating, chilling atmosphere.

A rare, faint smile appeared on Ning Mo's face.

But the next second his expression returned to its usual coldness. He gripped the Wuji Staff tightly in his hand, took a deep breath, and said in a deep voice, word by word:

"Set off!"
