Yama Rising

Chapter 72: Revelation (1)

Chapter 72: Revelation (1)

Thirty million Yin?!

“It’s highly unlikely… That level of Yin energy would already be at the same level of a Yama-King. How could the City of Salvation be in the mood for fun and games with that kind of existence around?” Arthis muttered, “Furthermore, he’d mentioned that only the top brass are aware of this. But why aren’t they disclosing it? Back then, when they discovered Yin levels of such magnitude, the first thing they would do would be to evacuate the entire city. And now that an evacuation would be so much easier with the advancement of technology, why don’t they do the same?”

“What about it?”

Arthis nodded, “You have some thoughts about this?”

Arthis agreed, “I think so as well. I have a guess… but I think we can leave that out for now.”

Arthis paused, “I’m afraid you might have some misunderstandings about your future work…”

Arthis explained, “Hell is a place. And a place implies that it needs space. Where exactly are you going to reestablish Hell? The old Fengdu Necropolis? Are you kidding?”

“... Do I? I think you’re probably mistaken… Ah-hahaha…”

The City of Salvation… was practically under martial law right now.

Qin Ye was convinced of his judgment on the situation.

When 6 p.m. arrived, the public broadcasts began to play in every part of the city once more. However, the contents of the message were different this time.

“Tomorrow morning, at 6 a.m. sharp, the City of Salvation will commence its press conference as previously scheduled. The conference will take place at the downtown plaza. Guests are slated to arrive from 6 a.m. to 9 a.m., and the actual conference will begin at 9.10 a.m. sharp. This conference will disclose the future of the City of Salvation, and the message will be broadcast live in all neighbourhoods and shopping malls, as well as on all television channels and public networks.”

The local forum exploded once again with innumerable comments speculating on just what would happen tomorrow. Yet, such speculations went unchecked by the moderators, even when some contained materials that would have been immediately censored in the past.

The City of Salvation was making its final preparations for the massive revelation tomorrow. Things were bound to be completely outrageous!

However, that was still far too vague. There was so much room for manoeuvre that he couldn’t even understand just how decisive the government was going to be, and how far they were going to go with this.

He hadn’t awakened on his own.

Qin Ye drew a deep breath. He had still been dreaming when his breathing became ragged, almost as though a large stone were weighing heavily on his chest. When he got up, he discovered a wave of powerful, suffocating true energy engulfing his body.

United and harmonious. Mortals would hardly be bothered about the existence of true energy at all. This was something that only cultivators and Yin spirits could sense.

“A Judge-class expert arrived in the city sometime last night. Right now, the entire city is under his watchful eyes. If any cultivator or Yin spirit dares to even make a single move, they would immediately be restrained with a devastating blow.”

“Brother Qin, come take a look!” Just then, a voice called out. Wang Chenghao leaned against the window, gazing into the distance with binoculars as he exclaimed.

He took a deep breath and looked through the binoculars into the distance.

Dawn was only breaking. Yet, as far as the eyes could see, soldiers could be seen in every part of the city, standing approximately ten meters apart from one another!

And what frightened him the most was not the solemn atmosphere which hung over the city.

That was why measures were in place to keep the city from revolting.

The security in the entire city was on the highest alert!

“Mr Qin, it’s time for our entrance. Please get into the car.” The driver bowed respectfully.

Qin Ye nodded his head silently. They arrived at the downtown plaza approximately twenty minutes later.

The morning air was somewhat moist and damp, and the morning dew could even be seen on the trees and flowers in the garden of the downtown plaza. A gentle shake of the trees would immediately send the gleaming dew scattering about.

The entire venue was filled with cultivators from the City of Salvation and elsewhere!

Countless bodyguards wearing suits stood stoically and silently under the stage, whispering into their earpieces from time to time. Waves of true energy swept across the entire venue in precise thirty second intervals.

Liu Qing sat seven seats away from him. Qin Ye sensed that Liu Qing was looking at him, so he turned around and greeted him with a smile and a nod, before shutting his eyes and resting once more.

This husky had truly blended in with the pack of wolves…

“You fell asleep.” Arthis muttered gravely.

“No.” Arthis drew a deep breath, “I… nodded off as well.”

“If there’s a problem… this means that the problem is well above something that even a Judge-class expert can handle!”

I’d actually slept for over an hour?!

“You’re not the only one…” Arthis chuckled bitterly, “There’s not a single exception across the board! Even I fell asleep for approximately ten seconds!”

Qin Ye lowered his gaze and clenched his fists tightly.

Does it really exist?

Has that unknown entity just been watching the entire City of Salvation like a celestial eye all this while?
