Chapter 199 Amon's Scheme
After another violent tremor, Chen Han and Lu Yu stared blankly at the dissipating golden-red flames on the horizon.
Furthermore, they had a vague feeling that the city was drifting away in the opposite direction from before.
Just then, they saw Li Jie and Zhou Ping, who had just left the underground parking garage, slowly floating down from mid-air and soon arriving in front of them.
When Lu Yu saw the serious injuries on the two of them, he couldn't help but exclaim in shock.
"Are they still alive?"
Upon hearing this, Chen Han stepped forward without hesitation and came to the side of the two.
After a brief examination, he discovered that although Li Jie and Zhou Ping had serious physical injuries, they were not in mortal danger.
However, it seems that the Sword Saint has fallen into a state of suspended animation, unable to hear or feel anything happening in the outside world.
"They are all superficial injuries, but fortunately, they did not injure any internal organs."
"They just need to rest. Lu Yu, go back to the garage and get some bandages. I'll treat them first..."
As Xian'er watched from mid-air, the Night Watchmen stationed in Anta County actively treating Li Jie and his companion's injuries, she smiled knowingly. Then, without lingering, she transformed into a streak of seven-colored sword light and flew towards the direction of Great Xia.
I look forward to the day I see you again!
After sensing that Xian'er's aura had completely disappeared from this space, Li Jie sighed slightly, put the ice-blue Immortal-Slaying Sword back into the Sword-Nourishing Gourd, and then lay down on the cold ground to rest.
I am indeed quite tired...
Fortunately, nothing else unexpected has happened...
All I have to do is wait to go home...
Lost in thought, Li Jie curled up on the ground and fell into a deep sleep.
..........
Guided by Xian'er, Anta County is drifting at a steady speed toward Daxia.
The sun god's desiccated corpse had been left in the endless mist, and under this deadly aura, even if He possessed extraordinary abilities, there was no possibility of His resurrection.
only........
Outside the protective shield of laws rising in Fengdu, two furtive figures gradually emerged.
As they felt the Netherworld Divine Kingdom enveloped by the pure laws of the Great Xia Dynasty, a greedy look involuntarily appeared in their eyes.
"Indeed... the aura of laws contained within this Great Xia Divine Kingdom is truly intoxicating..."
"I can't wait... to refine it into my own divine kingdom of laws..."
"We agreed..."
"Of the two fragments of Fengdu, I want the more powerful one... so that I can replace Him... and become the new Sun God..."
Upon hearing this, the man surrounded by grains of yellow sand chuckled and knelt down with a sinister look in his eyes.
"Yes... Great Sun God... Amun..."
"I, Set, the God of the Yellow Sands, wish to follow in your footsteps forever..."
Upon hearing Set's words, the Egyptian god known as Amun seemed quite pleased and began to yearn for becoming the new sun god...
What I've lost... I will take back with my own hands!
...........
About an hour later, Li Jie slowly opened his sleepy eyes.
He pursed his dry lips and asked in a hoarse voice.
"Sword Saint Senior...has he woken up?"
Seeing that Li Jie had woken up, Chen Han first handed him a glass of murky water, and then said softly.
"Not yet, but the external injuries have stabilized."
"It seems that the Sword Saint has some mental problems."
His mental energy fluctuations were very unstable, and his sword energy would occasionally leak out.
Therefore... I can only place him on the upper floor.
I left Lu Yu there to guard the Sword Saint. Now that you're awake, I'll go up and check on you too.
Hearing this, Li Jie stood up unsteadily, brushed the dust off his clothes, and spoke.
"I'll go. If the Sword Saint's sword energy isn't very stable, you probably won't have a good solution either."
In fact, Li Jie was absolutely right.
The Night Watch Squad 332, stationed in Anta County, is the lowest-ranking squad in the entire Great Xia Night Watch system. Their mission is to guard the frontier and handle simple, mysterious incidents.
Because of the fog, there are few mysterious creatures around Anta County, and the highest level is only the 'Chuan' realm, so the guards here are not very strong.
It would be strange if they could withstand the sword energy of Zhou Ping, who is the pinnacle of human strength.
Hearing this, Chen Han did not refuse, but led Li Jie towards the entrance of the second floor.
"What happened outside just now?" As they walked, Chen Han tried to chat with Li Jie, since it would be difficult for most people to cope with such a depressing situation.
As if giving advice to Li Jie, or perhaps to himself, Chen Han's words carried a lighthearted and cheerful tone.
Li Jie saw through Chen Han's thoughts, so he did not explain the truth about slaying the god to Chen Han.
After all, that would cause a significant shock to the latter's mind, and it is especially unsuitable under such a repressive situation.
"The Sword Saint and I temporarily repelled that god and changed the direction of the floating Anta County. Now... we are on our way home."
Upon hearing this, Chen Han paused in his steps.
Defeat the gods?
Take us home?
Such niche language...
Although he had a vague idea of this outcome, it was still somewhat unbelievable to hear Li Jie say it so casually.
"It's alright, Commissioner Li, just tell me the truth..."
"I can handle it..."
"After all, even the Sword Saint was injured so badly, I know you must have done your best..."
Hearing his words, Li Jie made no attempt to explain. The more he explained, the more complicated things would become. He decided to wait until they returned to Daxia to deal with it.
"Take me to see the Sword Saint first..."
Seeing that Li Jie had lost interest in talking, Chen Han wisely shut his mouth as well, but his unease only grew stronger.
When they arrived at the ground floor of the commercial center, Zhou Ping was sitting cross-legged in the middle of the central lobby, with the surrounding sofas already cut into several pieces by the uncontrolled sword energy.
Seeing this, Li Jie sighed slightly, then darted behind the stainless steel reception desk, pulled out Lu Yu who was hiding, and threw him to Chen Han.
"I'll stay here. You...go and treat the other wounded..."
