Ethereal World: Vicious Cannon Fodder's Immortality Road - Chapter 735

Chapter 735: Conspiracy Chapter 735: Conspiracy Her instincts had never been wrong.

Sure enough, tonight, a huge storm suddenly brewed over X City.

As mortals, people didn’t find it odd that the storm had appeared so abruptly to devour everything.

Natural disasters like this often occurred from time to time.

But for Shenlian Yingyue and them, this storm felt abnormal.

They could sense the dangerous energy within it.

This energy would not harm the mortals; rather, it seemed directed at them, preventing them from leaving Earth.

Had Ji Fulin insisted on using the Astral Key to escape, the consequences would have been unimaginable.

Fortunately, he listened to her.

It was now the third day that the heavy rain and storm persisted.

[Ethereal Small World] “If the Astral Key were used, it would distort the portal and space.

The only entrance between the cultivation universe and Earth would either be sealed or destroyed for eternity.” Shenlian Yinzhu sat under the peach blossom tree in the Ethereal Small World.

He was reading a medical book yet remained attentive to the affairs outside.

“Someone wants to harm the master,” Zhiyi’s usually gentle face was exceptionally cold at that moment.

“All teleportation scrolls and spells are ineffective right now.” Xiao Yun narrowed his rainbow-colored eyes.

Everyone else felt a chill.

Fortunately, they hadn’t abandoned their master and had stayed with her since they returned from their world adventure.

If they had left her to search for treasures, they couldn’t imagine how they would return to her.

[Outside World] The conversation seemed to be deliberately spoken for her to hear.

Shenlian Yingyue took out her phone to check the news.

All transportation had been forbidden, especially airplanes and trains.

No one was allowed to fly or travel underground.

People were stuck in place, and many who had planned to go abroad for leisure or work were delayed.

“This natural disaster carries dangerous energy,” Dongfang Moqing said, sitting nearby as he tended to the campfire.

His exquisite face appeared slightly troubled.

“Troublesome,” Huang Bai Xing replied, his slender fingers stroking the Ice Sword in his hand.

He looked outside the cave and suddenly stood up, swinging his sword at the sky.

“Boom!

Boom!” Lightning flashed in the sky as if responding to his attack.

Several powerful bolts struck the place where he was floating, but he dodged the destructive force of the lightning with indifference.

“This isn’t just a normal natural disaster.” His beautiful, cold eyes flashed as he returned to the cave.

His actions were witnessed by everyone present.  Jun Mu Jin looked at such overwhelming power with determination in her eyes.

She must become more powerful than everyone else so that the disgusting past would not happen to her again.

She wanted power!

“Since you know it’s dangerous now, why did you suddenly attract it?” Ji Fulin was afraid that his sweetheart would be in danger, for among all of them, Jun Mu Jin was currently the weakest.

So, he frowned at Huang Bai Xing.

Everyone glanced sideways at him and ignored him.

Shenlian Yingyue was extremely silent now.

No one knew what was on her mind.

“Is there any plan, sister Yueyue?” Jun Mu Jin asked.

For her, except for her brother, Shenlian Yingyue was the second person she trusted.

Ji Fulin’s eyes flashed with hurt at being ignored by her.

Just as Shenlian Yingyue was deep in thought, she felt many gazes on her.  “Enemies…” Her voice was faint, yet it contained something that chilled everyone’s heart.

Everyone’s pupils shrank.

Even Bing Xue and the others in the small world changed their expressions.

Shenlian Yingyue stood up.

Her long hanfu dress concealed her perfect figure.

She preferred ancient clothes to modern ones, so when she came to this cave, she had changed her outfit.

Her beautiful face was somewhat dull, as if her thoughts had drifted elsewhere.

The depth of her eyes reflected the lightning in the sky.  It was this power that she recognized.

Her brother and everyone in the small world might not be able to perceive this similar power because they were protected by her in the small world.

She had secretly asked Xiao Yun to add more protective functions to the Ethereal Small World.

So, no matter how dire the situation outside, the inside would always remain peaceful.

The evil energy couldn’t penetrate unless she, the owner of the Ethereal Small World, was close to it.

Now, the power in the sky was not so obvious, but she could sense it.

“Wait for me here,” she said, turning to the others in the cave as she flew outside without waiting for anyone’s response.

As she stood under the tree, she took out the Soul Gourd she had received from Immortal Congzhu.

Inside the Soul Gourd, several souls were imprisoned.

Their souls seemed exhausted after long torment, yet they had not died.  “Is this done by your ‘Queen’?” she asked faintly, indicating the situation on Earth.

The men inside refused to respond to her, despite the shock in their hearts at how she could recognize that this was the work of the ‘Queen.’ “Let me guess: the ‘Queen’ wanted to trap me here on Earth.

With such scarce spiritual power here, there’s no way I can grow stronger.” “The ‘Queen’ aimed to create a scene that would make it look like a natural disaster on Earth.

We, who have the Astral Key, would not think that such a storm could stop us from leaving.

Once we use the Astral Key, the only entrance from Earth to the cultivation universe will be cut off and sealed eternally.” “After that, Earth would become an abandoned place soon forgotten by everyone.

By then, even if the ‘Queen’ destroys Earth, no one could say anything.” The more she spoke, the more frightened everyone became.

It truly was a shocking revelation-how smart she was!

“You…

you!!!” The transparent faces of the men with Rakshasa masks changed.

They were utterly terrified of this ‘weak human.’ In the past, they had been shocked by her power; now, they were truly terrified of her intellect.

Shenlian Yingyue’s eyes flashed.

“Idiots!!” Xiao Li looked at them with contempt.

The master didn’t know everything; she was merely making a guess, yet these fools fell for her words and ended up revealing that her guess was correct.
