"Guhan, that guy is about to become the emperor, are you still not going to show yourself?" Song Yifei said to Guhan excitedly when she heard the noise outside the warehouse.
Unfortunately, Guhan was still immersed in Kang Na's dragon horn.
There was only a little time left before the Celestial Trapping Sword could be repaired. Of course, Guhan would not show up at this time to deal with Ying Zheng. He had to repair the Celestial Trapping Sword first.
"Xihua, it's so boring here. Let's go out for a walk!" Song Yifei immediately turned to Lu Xihua when she saw that she couldn't do anything to Guhan.
After experiencing the three of them being honest with each other, the relationship between Song Yifei and Lu Xihua was naturally different. Lu Xihua had already become Song Yifei's best friend.
"Master, he …" Lu Xihua actually wanted to go out for a walk. After all, this was Yuzhang City that had raised her for so many years. Lu Xihua really wanted to know what was happening in Yuzhang City.
But when she saw her master sitting cross-legged on the ground, meditating, Lu Xihua could not help but show a look of hesitation. Was it really good to leave her master here alone?
"Tsk tsk, are you still afraid that something will happen to him? In this world, other than him, who else has the ability to bully him!"
Song Yifei grabbed Lu Xihua's little hand and said. Lu Xihua could not help but nod at Song Yifei's words.
Indeed, with Guhan's current ability, there was indeed no one in this world who could bully him. Her master did not need anyone's protection at all.
"Xihua, you haven't gotten the Twelve-Winged Angel's Sword yet, right? Guhan's time is precious. We can't let him waste it on this.
Why don't we go get the Twelve-Winged Angel's Sword first so that Guhan doesn't have to waste his time! "
Song Yifei's words could be said to be the most urgent thought in Lu Xihua's heart. She really could not wait to find her Twelve-Winged Angel's Sword and become the emperor.
Lu Xihua felt that the gap between her and her master was getting bigger and bigger. Only by becoming the emperor could she close the gap between them. Lu Xihua could not wait anymore.
"Alright!
Let's go find the Twelve-Winged Angel Sword first. "
Lu Xihua nodded in the end. Song Yifei immediately opened the Void Gate. However, when the two of them walked out of the Void Gate, they found that there were three of them.
"Sister Yifei … Sister Xihua … Kang Na is so bored staying in the warehouse alone … Can you guys take Kang Na out to play?" Kang Na rode on Song Yifei's neck and begged him with an adorable expression.
"No problem!"
Song Yifei could not stand such a cute expression and immediately nodded in agreement. Soon, the three of them walked toward the direction of the Sword Pavilion.
Because the dragon's horns had fallen off, there were only two small white horns on Kang Na's head. They looked like two white hair clips and didn't arouse the suspicion of the onlookers in the core area … In fact, even if the dragon's horns were still there, Kang Na probably wouldn't arouse any suspicion.
This was because most of the people in the core area were rubbing their stomachs and constantly making pitiful wails … These people could only get a simple meal of porridge every day. They didn't even have the strength to speak on such meager food, let alone have the mood to observe other people's heads.
"Ying Zheng, that son of a b * tch! Such a rich Yuzhang City, such a rich human population, what have they become in his hands?!
That son of a b * tch, how dare he ascend the throne! "Lu Xihua angrily punched the wall next to him when he saw this miserable scene.
When Lu Xihua was in power, the entire human society was closely managed by Lu Xihua, and the people's living standards increased by about 30%.
At the same time, because Lu Xihua was born in the slums, he greatly increased the living supplies for the people in the slums and did his best to help them get out of poverty.
At the same time, by issuing different tasks, he tried his best to guide the sword bearers to focus on improving the people's livelihood, creating more safe zones and farmlands outside the city, instead of wasting them on the pursuit and annihilation of Yuan Kou. As a result, human food production increased significantly, and the Dimensional Pocket of Yan Jing City once stored enough food to feed the people of Yan Jing City for 10 years.
It was such a flourishing human society, but when it was handed over to Ying Zheng, there was such a scene of people living in poverty. How could Lu Xihua not be angry?
"It's probably because of the 12 Zu Wu's invasion. After all, seven of the eight base cities were destroyed, and the food supply was almost depleted. It's normal for people to not have enough to eat!"
Song Yifei said. She was not defending Ying Zheng, but simply stating the speculation in her heart.
"Miss Yifei, you don't know, except for Yan Jing City, all the other human bases have been conquered.
We humans have long learned how to deal with it, and we know that food is the most important thing for humans.
Therefore, before the city is conquered, we will transport all the food in this city to another safe city through the Dimensional Pocket … A sword bearer of Sword Immortal level can carry hundreds of large Dimensional Pockets at the same time, and each large Dimensional Pocket can contain 10 million tons of food. A few hundred Dimensional Pockets will contain hundreds of millions of tons of food, which is enough to transport all the food in the entire base city.
"Therefore, even if the human bases have been conquered countless times, the food has never been lost … Someone as smart as Ying Zheng must have thought that this day would come. Of all the food, only about 10% to 20% of it has been lost at most.
Most of the food should still be in Ying Zheng's control … Before I fell into a coma, the food stored in the eight bases was enough for the entire human race to eat for 10 years.
But now, the human population has been reduced by half, and there are already people dying of hunger everywhere.
"If I'm not wrong, this food must have been hidden by Ying Zheng … I know this guy too well. He likes to control everything in his hands.
And if he wants to control the entire human race, other than absolute power, the least he can do is to control the food … This damned beast, for the sake of his own power, he has abandoned so many human lives! "The more Lu Xihua spoke, the angrier she became. She could not wait to rush to Ying Zheng and give him a slap.
"Forget it, let him be happy for now. Guhan will naturally deal with him. It is more important for us to find the Sword of the Seraphim!" Song Yifei said to Lu Xihua, and Lu Xihua could only nod helplessly.
In fact, Lu Xihua knew that he was no match for Ying Zheng. Only by finding the Sword of the Seraphim could he truly kill Ying Zheng.
Along the way, they carefully avoided the crowds on the ground, and finally arrived at the Sword Tower in Yuzhang City.
But compared to the Sword Tower that Lu Xihua was very familiar with, the current Sword Tower looked completely different … about half of the buildings had disappeared, and even the roofs were gone. Only some broken walls were left, a testament to the Sword Tower's former existence.
At the same time, Lu Xihua also noticed that there were all kinds of refugees lying on the ground in the ruins of the Sword Tower. They were huddled tightly on a small piece of ground, leaning against the wall, as if the wall could bring them a little bit of security.
"Who was it? Who tore down my sword pavilion?!"
Seeing the scene before him, Lu Xihua clenched his fists in anger … As the former Sword Tower Master, although the Sword Tower had brought Lu Xihua a lot of suffering, it was also the most profound memory in Lu Xihua's life.
The Sword Tower was like Lu Xihua's home. Seeing his home reduced to such a state, one could imagine the anger in Lu Xihua's heart.
In the end, before Song Yifei could stop them in time, countless streams of Sword Qis shot out from Lu Xihua's scabbard, all of them slashing down onto the ground and kicking up a large amount of dust. The surrounding refugees were scared out of their wits as they looked at Lu Xihua and Song Yifei, the two sword wielders who seemed to have gone mad.
In fact, Lu Xihua still retained some of his rationality. In the end, he controlled the sword auras to slash at the gaps in the ground … If Lu Xihua had really gone mad, there would have been at least hundreds of casualties in the vicinity.
"Who is it?
Who's causing trouble here?
Using sword auras, is he trying to kill people? "
Naturally, the great commotion in the vicinity of the sword pavilion had attracted the attention of the nearby sword bearers. However, as most of the sword bearers had gone to the imperial palace to attend Ying Zheng's coronation ceremony, only one sword bearer came to deal with the matter.
"It's him!"
Seeing the sword bearer who suddenly appeared, Song Yifei and Lu Xihua's faces showed some surprise at the same time.
Not only did they know this sword bearer, but they were also old acquaintances.
"Koo Rok-in!
It's you! "Song Yifei couldn't help but cry out.
"You know me?" Song Yifei knew Koo Rok-in, but Koo Rok-in didn't know Song Yifei.
Firstly, it had been 20 years, and Song Yifei's figure was no longer the same as before. Secondly, the disguise that Guhan put on their faces was still effective. To Koo Rok-in, Song Yifei was just an ordinary woman.
"Ahem, who doesn't know Sword Immortal Baiju's son?"
Only then did Song Yifei realize that she couldn't reveal her true identity, so she blurted out an explanation.
"You actually still remember my father!"
When Koo Rok-in heard this unfamiliar woman, Song Yifei, mention his father's title, he immediately sighed with mixed feelings.
Twenty years had passed, and the leader of Yuzhang City, Sword Immortal Baiju, had long since disappeared from the public's conversation.
Apart from the occasional commemorative activities and the idle chatter of the older generation, Sword Immortal Baiju's name had disappeared for a long time. As a result, it had been 34 years since Koo Rok-in heard his father's title from a stranger's mouth.
Now, he was shocked to find out that there was still someone who remembered his father, and even knew that he was his son. Naturally, all sorts of feelings welled up in him, and his impression of Song Yifei also improved. His attitude softened a little as he asked, "What are the two of you doing here?
Why did you hurt someone? "
