"Ling!
You have to leave this place! "
Just when Guhan's hands and feet were cold from the blood cocoons, the void beside Guhan was suddenly torn open. A giant hand reached out from the void. It was a Giant Void Hand that could rescue anyone who had left a mark on it. This meant that there was at least one Immortal-level swordsman waiting to rescue Liunian Ling from afar.
"Grandpa!
Why did you do that? "
Liunian Ling was shocked. Her grandpa, Fleeting Wooden Fish, had reached out with a Giant Void Hand to save her … According to the teachings of the Fleeting Family, the elders were not allowed to save their children unless they were in a dire situation.
Now that her grandpa had reached out with a Giant Void Hand, did that not mean that the core area of Yuzhang City was already a dead end?
"Hao Tian told me that he sensed the power of the desolate-level Yuan Kou in Yuzhang City. He is currently being held back by Zeus and Yahweh. There is no way he can get away. I have to save you!"
Fleeting Wooden Fish said, "The desolate-level Yuan Kou has appeared. Yuzhang City will definitely become a dead end. You can't stay here any longer. Ling, grandpa will bring you away!"
"Ling understands!"
Liunian Ling knew what it meant for her grandpa to help. She did not want to stay and die, but she could not let Guhan and Song Yifei die here.
"Grandpa, Ling has two good friends. I hope grandpa can bring them along!"
"Good friends?" Fleeting Wooden Fish paused for a while. "How many friends?"
"Two!
Two friends!
Ling knows that grandpa can only bring three people at a time. Ling only has three friends! "In fact, there should be four people here. Including Liunian Ling, there were five of them.
However, since Fleeting Wooden Fish could only bring three people with him, Liunian Ling had excluded Koo Rok-in and Misaka Mikoto.
"Fine!
Come to grandpa, grandpa will bring you away! "Fleeting Wooden Fish said quickly.
"Thank you, grandpa!"
Liunian Ling immediately pulled Song Yifei, who was confused, to her side. She then wanted to pull Guhan.
"Thank you for your grandfather's kindness. Guhan was born in Yuzhang City and will die in Yuzhang City. If Yuzhang City is gone, there is no need for Guhan to continue living.
Ling, take Yifei and leave this place! "Guhan's tone was calm, but the determination in his words was unquestionable.
"Guhan!
This is the descendant of the Gu Clan! "
Fleeting Wooden Fish muttered to himself when he heard Guhan's name. No one knew what he was thinking.
"But …" Liunian Ling wanted to persuade Liunian Ling again, but the pair of giant hands grabbed Song Yifei and Liunian Ling by the waist and dragged them into the Void. "But he's courting death. Stop trying to persuade him, Ling!"
Liunian Ling and Song Yifei disappeared from the Stress Response Center just like that. They were probably at their grandfather's side.
Logically speaking, the Void Gate should have closed by now. But unexpectedly, the Void Gate was still open and hadn't closed.
"Is there anything else, Master Fleeting Wooden Fish?"
Gu Han knew that Old Man Liu Nian still had something to say to him when he saw that the Void Gate was still there.
"It's nothing much. I just want to tell you that the Blood Cocoon needs an hour to break out of the cocoon. If you can kill the Nether River Patriarch within an hour, the Dimensional Vortex will take away the Nether River Patriarch's remains. You will be able to save everyone in the city, including your master!" Fleeting Wooden Fish said before the Void Gate disappeared.
… …
"The Nether River Patriarch!
This Yuan Kou is the Nether River Patriarch! "
Gu Han finally knew the background of this terrifying masked man. It turned out that he was the Nether River Ancestor, one of the three Desolate-Grade Primordial Souls that had shaken the world in the early stage of the Great Calamity. It was no wonder that he would first ask about the Sword Ancestor, and it was also no wonder that he would run out of the Creation Godhead.
The Nether River Patriarch was one of the three Desolate-level Yuan Kou who had first obtained the Creation Divinity and started researching it. In the end, the Nether River Patriarch was killed by the Creation Divinity.
The Nether River Patriarch was actually one of the Huaxia Immortals. He was a super powerful Desolate-level Yuan Kou who could suppress the Jade Emperor. However, the Nether River Patriarch had only been active for a few decades before he died by his own hands. That was why he was almost unknown in the human world. Those who did not specialize in the history of Yuan Kou would not know of the existence of this Yuan Kou. It was no wonder that Guhan and Liu Lei could not guess his identity.
Although the Nether River Patriarch had died in the explosion of the Creation Divinity, no one had seen the Dimensional Vortex appear. The Nether River Patriarch must have used some special method to hide his soul or Divinity within the Creation Divinity. That was how he survived.
"But why did Liunian Ling's grandfather tell me that I still have an hour to save people?"
At that moment, more and more alarms were ringing. More than half of the underground shelters had been invaded by the blood, and the humans inside had all turned into blood cocoons. An hour later, they would irreversibly turn into Asuras. Even if the Nether River Patriarch died, they could not return to their original state. They had been eroded too deeply by the power of the Blood Sea, and they would only become a pile of bones.
"Could it be that Liunian Ling's grandfather wants to tell me that I still have a chance to save the lives of the people of Yuzhang City?"
At that thought, Guhan immediately took action. He seemed to have accessed all the information he could find about the Nether River Patriarch through the Internet.
However, the information was very general, and there were less than a hundred words of information in total. Feeling helpless, Guhan could only turn to Tomono Kakaze, who was in charge of human core intelligence and information.
Hearing Guhan's request, Tomono Kakaze seemed to be in a difficult position. "All the information about the Nether River Patriarch is SSS-level. If I were to retrieve it for you, it would definitely not escape the surveillance of those people in white coats!
Moreover, I don't have the authority to retrieve this information. I really can't help you! "
The confidentiality and authority of the information ranged from S-level to SSS-level. As the master of the Sword Tower and one of the higher-ups of the entire human race, Guhan could only access SSS-level information. The highest SSS-level information was not something that Guhan could access.
[PS: I don't remember if I wrote that SSS-level is the highest authority. If I did, then the author would have slapped himself in the face. Yes, from now on, SSS-level is the highest authority. Oh my god!]
"So, who has the authority to retrieve this information?" Guhan asked quickly.
"Three people!"
Tomono Kakaze also replied quickly. "Long Shi Jiandi, Hao Tian Jiandi, and the leader of the people in white coats, Dr. Chu Xuan. Only the three of them have the authority to allow me to retrieve SSS-level information.
Of course, if the People's Conference of the Eight Cities next year allows you to access it, you can access the information you want. "
"Give it to me and connect to His Majesty Hao Tian's communication!"
Guhan had spoken to Hao Tian Jiandi in the Trial Formation before. He felt that Hao Tian was a good person. With Yuzhang City on the verge of destruction, Guhan would definitely be able to get Hao Tian's permission!
"Sorry, Hao Tian Jiandi is in a state of incommunicado!"
Tomono Kakaze replied. This was not surprising. Hao Tian Jiandi was now besieged by two Desolation Level Yuan Kou. Naturally, he was in an area where communication was cut off. It was normal that he could not be contacted.
"What about Long Shi Jiandi?" Although Long Shi Jiandi was not on good terms with him, he would not leave him in the lurch.
"Long Shi Jiandi is currently playing a game. He has set it to reject all disturbances.
His authority is higher than mine. I can't contact him! "Tomono Kakaze's words made Guhan a little angry.
Yuzhang City, one of the eight cities, was on the verge of destruction. This human Jiandi was still in the mood to play a game and refused all disturbances. He was too awesome!
Although Guhan was angry, it was useless. Helpless, Guhan could only turn to the last person, Dr. Chu Xuan.
Contacting Chu Xuan was no accident. Soon, Chu Xuan appeared in Guhan's communicator.
"Hello, I am the senior colonel commander of the core research base, Chu Xuan. What can I do for you?"
Unexpectedly, Chu Xuan's voice was not the voice of a white-bearded old man Guhan had imagined. It was a young, cold and handsome voice. It felt closer to the feeling of a soldier, which corresponded to his identity as a senior colonel.
"I am the master of Yuzhang City's Jiange, Guhan. I now request to immediately access the SSSS level information on Desolation Level Yuan Kou Ancestor River Styx. Please approve it immediately," Guhan said quickly.
However, from Chu Xuan's voice, it was obvious that he was a very rigid and boring person. Moreover, with his identity as a soldier, such a person would not let go of the rules.
Guhan was prepared to spend some time explaining why he wanted the information on Ancestor River Styx to convince Chu Xuan to agree to his request.
But who would have thought that before Gu Han could speak, Xuan would start talking himself.
"The master of Jiange isn't Liu Lei?
When did it become Guhan? "
"But since Tomono Kakaze allowed you to speak to me, the master of Yuzhang City's Jiange has changed."
"Yuzhang City is in a crisis. I didn't expect it to reach the point of changing the master of Jiange. Yuzhang City must be in danger."
"You don't have time to waste. Take this information and do what you should do!"
Chu Xuan hung up immediately. Before Guhan could say thank you, a document was sent to Guhan's personal terminal.
It took less than five seconds to get the information from Chu Xuan's communicator.
Guhan glanced through it. Yes, it was indeed Ancestor River Styx's confidential information.
"This Chu Xuan is very special!" Guhan's voice was a little ethereal. It was the first time he met someone he couldn't see through.
"That's how Chu Xuan is. If you spend too much time with him, you will be driven crazy by him!" Tomono Kakaze stuck out her tongue. "Then I won't disturb you from saving the world."
"Interesting!"
Gu Han pursed his lips and began to browse through the information in detail. As expected, Gu Han found a way to defeat the Nether River Patriarch in the information.
