Chapter 361: Emergency SOS!

Chapter 361: Emergency SOS!

= Jianye City, Hotel Suite =

Ding

[You have completed the request of Sun Wu.]

[The quest rewards have been transferred to your system inventory.]

Miaomiao, while standing on the suite balcony and gazing into a distance, rubbed his right eyebrow to calm it down.

For some reason, he had been having a bad hunch after Wei Yuan had texted him, warning that their city had been under siege. Even after she had confirmed the intruder's annihilation, the twitching kept getting stronger and faster.

His dark and distorted expression scared Gan Ning. The latter rushed to the bar and fetched the best wine for Miaomiao, hoping to calm his boss.

"B-Boss. Is there something wrong?"

Miaomiao stopped gazing outside and returned to the lobby. He picked the wine bottle from Gan Ning, "Brace yourself. The storm is coming."

"Huh? What storm? The weather is clear outside."

"Not that kind of storm. You'll see when the time comes."

Miaomiao rubbed his right eyebrow again while he took out his phone and reread his wife's text messages.

14:05 [Mount Hua Sect has attacked us.]

14:42 [We got them. Sister Xueyan got the rest of them. Nothing to worry about.]

15:15 [Merchants and rogue cultivators took several pictures of our pylon tower during the chaos. I think they've also discovered the source of our local merchandise.]

15.18 [We drove the outsiders out of the city. The beasts also killed several thieves that tried to steal our medicine water.]

15.30 [I'm sorry. We've left a bad impression due to the slaughtering.]

15.31 [The outsiders cooperated and left the city in peace, but they obviously complained about our selfishness. Most of them want us to share the medicine water for free, though. They're fucking shameless!]

Everything seemed to be under control even though they experienced some issues.

However, the next messages worried Miaomiao.

16.45 [Ma Moxi, Zhao Yun, and Mao Xueyan said they sensed the aura of a divine being south of our city.]

16.45 [Zhao Bao stopped them from heading out. He said that it was too dangerous.]

16.46 [He also said that we need to recall Jia Shan, Ma Ping, and Zhang Jue here ASAP. He didn't reveal the detail, but it was the same guy that injured Ding Bu.]

16.47 [You should also rush home. Abort the missions if you can.]

Miaomiao stopped rubbing his right eyebrow and groaned.

Normally, Miaomiao would have entrusted his wives and seniors to clean up the mess without his help. However, Wei Yuan had revealed the importance and the emergency of the situation.

First off, three of four divine pill consumers could sense the undetectable aura of a fellow divine being or a divine pill consumer. After all, they had literally integrated a soul of a divine beast with their nascent soul's embryo, turning the divine soul into their dao avatar.

These people also rarely cracked a joke. Even if Ma Moxi could be shameless sometimes, he wouldn't prank anyone at a time like this.

Thus, it revealed the emergency of this situation. A powerful being had been lurking nearby!

Secondly, the fact that Zhao Bao stopped Mao Xueyan and Ma Moxi from leaving the city hinted that he wasn't confident in protecting these two OP youths. That meant someone stronger than Zhao Bao was in the area. It confirmed the strength of the mysterious cultivator with the divine aura.

And lastly, Ding Bu, aka Lu Fengxian got injured!

A freaking protagonist with invincible plot armor got injured!

He was supposed to face-slap every adversary in a mortal world, but he got injured!

This was a major upset. As the alpha protagonist, who was supposed to be perfect in every aspect, should never have experienced a setback regardless of the dire situation. With his plot armor, nothing should have been able to make him break a sweat!

With all information, Miaomiao suspected that an immortal-like being or a divine being, who had injured Lu Fengxian, was still waiting or planning to continue the assault on Siren City.

This didn't bond well for his hometown. Miaomiao needed to head back and deal with the potential threat before it escalated. Even if he might not be able to contribute anything to the fight, he needed to be there with his wives and children.

Still, Lu Fengxian being injured could also be a blessing in disguise. As every protagonist always got stronger after a critical life-and-death situation, the guy might break through a few big realms or advanced to the 6th-stage any time soon.

Miaomiao stopped thinking and switched his app, calling his temporary ally, Zhao Gongjin.

BEEP

Zhao Gongjin picked up the call right away.

[Yes, Sir Mao?]

"How is the mobilization prep? When will Sun Wentai and the Sun Clan move out? It's been too long!"

[It's almost done. We'll move out from this city by nightfall.]

"Okay. Just asking. Oh hey, I'll leave one of my guys with you. Please bring him along."

[Oh, sure. Who is it?]

"Gan Xingba."

[… Okay. We'll bring him along.]

Miaomiao hung up the call and looked back at Gan Ning.

"Gan Ning. I want you to tag along with the Sun Clan's men for now. I have something else to do."

"Huh? Where are you going, boss?"

"Urgent call. I need to head back to Siren City ASAP. I can't wait for these slowpokes."

"Then, can you take me with you?"

Miaomiao had a wry smile on his face. He wanted to bring Gan Ning with him, but the latter couldn't fly.

Had Wei Yuan never asked him to return, Miaomiao would have taken it slow and asked the Sun Clan for a ride home. But now, he was anxious about the situation at Siren City.

"Nah, I want you to visit Zhao Gongjin and ask him to bring you along. If he refuses, give him this."

Miaomiao tossed a few bottles of unified element spring water to Gan Ning, after which he packed all his clothes and belonging to his spatial ring.

Without waiting for Gan Ning to react, Miaomiao rushed out of the hotel and flew northwest.

Gan Ning stared at his departing boss blankly. He quietly complained.

"Have you paid for the room, boss? I have no money…"

…

WHOOSH

As Miaomiao's jetted out of Jianye City, his phone vibrated.

Annoyed, Miaomiao's hand grabbed the phone and was about the cut the call. But when he noticed the name of the caller, he stopped flying at the speed of sound and hovered in mid-air.

The caller was none other than Zhu Qiao, the troublemaker.

Then, he picked up the call.

"What do you want?"

[I need you to do me a favor.]

"I'm busy. I can't run an errand for anyone."

[Just shut up and listen to me for a second, will you?]

"Is that the right tone for someone who is asking for a favor? I'm hanging up."

[No! Wait, please! I'm sorry! Please don't hang on me. I really need your help.]

Miaomiao clicked his tongue and rolled his eyes, "I'm heading back to Siren City, and I don't have the time to help you."

[Actually, it relates to you and Siren City, including the potential alliance between you and the Zhu Clan.]

Miaomiao grumbled as he didn't have time to negotiate with another clan at the moment.

"Make it quick. Remember that I'm busy!"

[I want you to take me to Siren City. The payment is a stack of 100 random talismans from my gacha system.]

"I said, I'm… you what?"

Miaomiao almost declined the offer, but he couldn't believe what he was hearing, "You're going to give me what? And where did you get that from?"

[I said, take me out of here and bring me to Siren City! The commission payment is 100 random talismans from my cheating gacha system! You're a reincarnator or a transmigrator, right? Shouldn't the word "System" ring a bell to you? Do I need to explain more?]

"…"

Miaomiao's head shook from sides to sides as he blinked his eyes thrice before he widened his eyes in disbelief. The offer was too good to be true, and he was interested in the so-called Random Talismans.

"What's the effect of the talismans?"

[Stuff. Offensive spells, defensive spells, auxiliary spells, restriction spells, array talismans, doppelganger talismans, domain sealing talismans, teleportation talismans, elemental spells, advanced elemental spells…]

"Wait, wait, WAIT! Could you repeat that again?"

[Dafuq? Okay, fine. Advanced elemental spells.]

"No, before that!"

[… Elemental spells?]

"BEFORE THAT!"

[Hoh?]

Even if Miaomiao couldn't see Zhu Qiao's face at the moment, he was curtained that she was grinning from ear to ear.

[Domain Sealing Talismans and Teleportation Talismans. You want these?]

Bulls-eyes! Miaomiao needed both types of talismans at the moment!

However, something didn't make sense.

"Hold it. If you have teleportation talismans, why don't you use them if you want to leave? You could have teleported to my city right away."

[The effect is too random! They can send me to other continents, or worst, they might even send me to the freaking moon! Do you want me to become a frozen space statue, holding the American Flagpole and doing the pole dance on the surface of the moon? Hell to the no! My gacha system is already random enough, and I don't want to random my fate. I don't gamble, okay!? You see, I don't need it. I'll give you all my teleport talismans if you want. Just… get me fucking out of here before Wu Guotai forces me to marry her son!]

Finally, Zhu Qiao mustered her courage and told Miaomiao what she wanted.

Miaomiao grinned. Zhu Qiao messed up.

As Zhu Qiao was bad at negotiating, she accidentally revealed her weaknesses to her opponent. She could have bargained or haggled with Miaomiao, so the latter could unconditionally follow her instruction due to his urgency.

Although Wu Guotai had already reported him about Zhu Qiao's situation, Miaomiao wasn't certain if she wanted to marry Sun Bofu.

Now that Zhu Qiao had blurted out that she didn't want to marry him, Miaomiao capitalized it.

"Haiz. I think that's none of my business. You see, little girl. The Sun Clan has signed an alliance treaty with me, and I don't want to mess with them. Why should I help you and make an enemy out of the Sun Clan? What are you trying to do? Are you sowing discord between us?"

[HELL NO! Fuck! I'm being serious and honest here. Can't you take the hint? Please! Get me out of here!]

"Can't you fly out of that sect island by yourself? You can fly, right?"

[And where the fuck am I supposed to go? I can't go home since my mom will definitely send me back here to marry that Sun BOBAFETT!]

"Sun Bofu. Don't confuse him with the Great Boba Fett. We're not in a Star War movie," Miaomiao held back his laughter and corrected her.

[BOFUCK, TOFU, whatever the fuck name he has! Chinese names sound the same to me! Anyway, I need a place to shelter and a reason to convince my mother not to marry me to anyone!]

"Then, you want to marry me or something? I already have like… 20 wives or so. I lost count."

[IT DOESN'T MATTER HOW MANY WIVES YOU HAVE!! Just… take me! Let me use your name as a husband-in-name to fool my mom. You can also establish a bond with the Zhu Clan, and you will automatically get your precious allies through the fake marriage! Don't you want my clan's help?]

Beep

While Zhu Qiao was yelling and complaining, Miaomiao got another text message from Wei Yuan.

The message was…

[Lu Fengxian has somewhat recovered from his injuries. He said to be prepared for a difficult fight since the guy that injured him could also manipulate gravity. He also said that gravity is deeply related to space-and-time law, and that man's power has increased!]

Miaomiao widened his eyes in shock. He had just received the quest reward from Sun Wu, aka the third piece of time-and-space mural. And now, Lu Fengxian ran into someone that could manipulate gravity or time-and-space as well?

Miaomiao still hadn't seen the time-and-space record book in Lu Fengxian's hands yet, so he couldn't tell whether the murals he had contained the same information or not.

The completion of Miaomiao's dragon balls, aka the seven pieces of time-and-space murals, might be faster than he had ever dreamt of even though the risks were extremely high.

Miaomiao took several deep breaths and concluded the talk with Zhu Qiao right away. Regardless of Zhu Qiao's motive, he needed extra helpers!

"Fine. I'll get you out of there! I'll talk to Wu Guotai!"

[Wow! Thanks! Oh, by the way, I won't fuck you. Don't you ever think of laying your hands on me!]

"As if I care about a stinky virgin! I'd rather fuck a MILF than plowing into your syphilis-plagued sandy fishy hole!"

[WTF!? HOW DARE YOU!? IS THAT HOW YOU TALK TO A LADY!?]

"You're not a lady. You're just a thotty whore on the side road. Now, stay fucking right there, so I can come and get you out!"

Before Miaomiao could even finish his sentence, Zhu Qiao hung up the call.

Three seconds later, Zhu Qiao flew out of the flying island on her own, riding a flying carpet and rushing toward Miaomiao at the speed of sound. Several 5th-stage female servants flew after her in a panic, but they couldn't catch up to her.

Within a minute, Zhu Qiao caught up to Miaomiao.

But instead of stopping, she flipped in midair and aiming to send a Kamen Rider Kick to his face.

Miaomiao's reflex and muscle memory took over his movement. He tilted his head to the side.

As the kick missed the target, the girl's body continued to fly forward because of the momentum.

And then…

"Ah, crap…" Miaomiao widened his eyes as he saw pink bikini underwear under Zhu Qiao's skirt coming at his face.

"FFFFUUUUUUUUUUUUUCCCCK!!"

Zhu Qiao also realized her mistake. Her crotch area slammed onto Miaomiao's face, sending both of them tumbling in the air.
