The Days of Being Forced to Become the Savior of a Cultivation Civilization

The two quickly arrived at the east side of the city wall, at the foot of a tall tower connected to the wall, which served as the passageway up. A soldier was nodding erratically on the steps at the entrance, his eyes unfocused.

Zhiyue: "I think it's also perfectly acceptable to walk directly in through the main entrance."

Kano twitched the corner of his mouth:

"Heh heh, looks like today's difficulty is easy, but this guy's going to be in trouble tomorrow."

Zhiyue: "Why?"

Kano: "Because I'll report it to my dad."

Zhiyue: "Wow, you... So your dad knew you'd sneak out at night, right?"

Kano's eyes glazed over for a moment:

"Uh, never mind all that, just come with me."

Kano crouched down and quietly walked toward one side of the tower without waking the guard, and Zhiyue followed suit.

Zhiyue: "There's nothing here. Where's your secret base?"

Cano chuckled secretly.

"Hehe, a secret base, of course it's not that easy to find."

She fumbled around on the wall for a while and found a movable mechanism:

"I touched it!"

With a rumble, the walls shook, and the two quickly entered the tower through a mysterious passage that appeared on the wall.

The guard woke up with a start, looked around, and then went back to sleep.

Zhiyue: "So, you set up this mechanism?"

Kano rolled his eyes:

"Of course not, I... just happened to find it while I was playing around here."

Zhiyue chuckled lightly:

"You didn't happen to be trying to find a way into the tower, fumbling around on the walls to find some mysterious mechanism, and then you actually found one, did you?"

Kano's eyes widened:

"You! ...You guessed pretty accurately, huh?"

Zhiyue: "By the way, are these the stairs inside the tower, leading to the wall?"

Cano nodded:

"That's right. Actually, this tower is a passageway to the wall. You can see it from the outside. There's one every certain distance, just to facilitate passage up and down."

However, this place has actually been converted into a floating stairwell for a long time, and no one ever walks on these steps.

Let's go up!

The two quickly climbed the more than 100-meter-high stairs.

"Wait a moment,"

Kono reached out and stopped Zhiyue:

"Let me see if there are any guards..."

She peeked out and looked around, blinking her big eyes.

The Philoddy family has exceptional eyesight, especially their night vision, which is extremely strong. They can observe their surroundings in almost complete darkness, but now it is midnight and the moonlight is bright, so observation is not difficult.

"Hmm, no one's here. Go on out."

The two climbed the high wall, reached its edge, and looked down at the city, where only sparse lights could be seen. At this time, everyone else was fast asleep.

Zhiyue asked in confusion:

"Hey, this direction seems to be..."

He turned to look at the other side and suddenly realized.

On the other side of the wall, although the city was still predominantly black, a striking area of ​​light appeared, which was the market where the two had started and where the restaurant was located.

The restaurant and the hotel on the other side of the road stood out, being the tallest buildings in the entire city.

"Ah, it's been so long since I've been to the city, I've forgotten about the inner and outer city."

Zhiyue couldn't help but sigh.

He hadn't been to the city for ten years, spending his time numbing himself between the village and the desert.

Kano, admiring the scenery from the side, remarked:

"Didn't you say you'd never been to the city before? What do you mean by 'too long a time'?"

Zhiyue: "It's been seventeen years since I last came, so it's as if I've never been here before. Actually, I went to Huanlong City once when I was little, and it's quite different from here."

Kano: "Really? I've never been to the main city before. Could you tell me about it sometime?"

Zhiyue was startled when he heard Kano's complaint, but fortunately he quickly covered it up and didn't arouse her suspicion.

"Speaking of opportunities, there's plenty of time now, but it's been too long, I might not remember them clearly—"

Shh! Don't speak!

Kano suddenly became alert, and Zhiyue, seeing this, also quickly fell silent and listened to the sounds around him.

He activated a small amount of reverse energy to connect the soles of his feet with the wall, so that he could obtain sound information through the vibration of the rock.

Tap, tap, tap—a series of footsteps approached. No, it was two people. They sounded like two rather thin men walking towards them.

There was no sound of armor clashing, so the newcomers were not guards.

Tap, tap, tap. The footsteps stopped at a very close distance. The two held their breath, making no sound.

"Have you checked for tracking traces?"

"No, don't worry. I avoided crowds the whole way and climbed up directly from the outer city wall."

Two male voices. One hoarse, the other deep. Kano's expression shifted from surprise to wariness; the two communicated through telepathy:

Zhiyue: "These two people don't seem like good people. Don't make a sound."

Kano: "I understand. What do we do?"

Zhiyue: "Stay still and listen."

Kano nodded and remained silent.

"Why not use the sea of ​​consciousness for dialogue?"

"That deep voice asked," the hoarse voice replied.

"Being cautious is a good thing, but I've already scouted the area. There are only a few guards up there, and I've taken them all down."

The entrances below are guarded; no one will come up until the shift change.

The deep voice didn't respond, so the other person continued:

"Alright. So, what's your mission this time, to infiltrate here?"

The two hidden individuals focused their attention.

The hoarse voice said:

"It's not that difficult. This mission isn't anything special; it's still about developing your downline. You know why you're the one chosen, right?"

"Yes, it's because of this physical body, right?"

Both of them were startled!

"What physical body... Could it be what Grandma Tongyan was talking about...!"

Zhiyue, on the other hand, was more composed.

"It seems we've run into serious trouble. We must remain calm."

Kano nodded and continued to listen attentively.

The hoarse voice paused slightly:

"That's right, this is the body's hometown. If we make good use of it, the team leader and his daughter can become our capable assistants."

Team leader? Daughter? These two keywords sound very familiar.

Zhiyue couldn't help but turn to look at Kano, only to see her pupils contract and her body trembling slightly—not out of fear, but as she suppressed the urge to rush out.

Zhiyue pressed down on her shoulder and shook his head at her. Kano came to her senses, took a deep breath, and nodded without making a sound.

The deep voice said:

"Understood, however, I cannot access the original memories of this body, so the success rate is probably not high."

A hoarse voice said, "It's alright, so you should leave this for last, so you can leave immediately if it fails."

A steady voice: "Understood. I will do my best. The Philody family, right?"

"Oh no!"

Zhi Yue had a bad feeling, and sure enough, Kano had already stood up and looked at the two figures.

Both men were dressed in black robes; one was tall and upright, while the other was hunched over, which corresponded perfectly to the voice.

The tall, imposing man turned around and looked at the newcomer, his eyes filled with surprise:

"Damn it, didn't you say no one would come up?"

The two had quickly switched to communicating through telepathy, and the hoarse voice replied:

"That can't be right, where did this little girl come from!"

"whispering sound."

The tall, muscular man clicked his tongue, preparing to kill him to silence him.

When Kano saw that face, she was completely stunned. Even though she had some guesses, she was still overwhelmed by the scene before her.

That was none other than the face of her second brother, Anassar Fildi.
