Jinxi Manor.
"I see."
In the living room, Xiaoniao put down the communicator and looked at everyone present.
Xun looked at her and asked, "What did Secretary Lu say?"
The bird said in a deep voice: "It has been confirmed that a demon is approaching the fortress. Secretary Lu asked us to strengthen our defense. Of course, he thinks the probability of the demon being able to break through the fortress is small, but we still have to be careful."
"Also, Secretary Lu said that Tianyang has been notified."
Qianhong breathed softly, and a clover pattern was faintly visible on her forehead. The girl said softly, "Let it come."
The bird's mouth twitched and said, "This is not a hunting game. I heard that even General Xiao couldn't keep that evil spirit. Don't think that you can rival the Heavenly Rank just because you have that 'Sky Fighting Suit'."
"Our most important task is to protect the manor, let the fort handle the rest."
Wang Lingjun patted the two long swords at his feet and said with a smile: "Ladies, please rest assured. As long as I am still alive, I will not let you ladies and Miss Xitong suffer any harm."
This 'just man' cried out in his heart, there are not many opportunities like this to express his loyalty, he must seize the opportunity!
After all, this is the Ares Castle, with Heavenly Masters and an army. Even if the evil god manages to break into the castle, he can't reach the Jinxi Manor. Not to mention asking me to fight, I probably don't even have a chance to take action. If I don't seize this opportunity, I'd be a fool!
Xun nodded slightly towards the Heavenly Stage Master: "Thank you, Mr. Wang."
She stood up. She was already at level 6, and the bright and sacred aura on her body became stronger and stronger, making people lower their heads involuntarily in front of her, unable to look directly at the light.
Of course, this impact is potential and intangible.
Xun looked around and said, "Xiao Niao, you are responsible for commanding the guards of the manor. Have them monitor the surroundings of the manor and report any situation immediately."
"Qianhong, go protect Xitong and Hongxiu. If the battle spreads to the interior of the manor, take them away first."
"Mr. Wang, I'm going to trouble you with the safety of the manor. If the battle really spreads to the vicinity of the manor, please stop the evil spirit and give Qianhong and the others time to evacuate."
"As for me, I will stay until the very end and I will give everyone the necessary support."
In just a few words, Xun assigned tasks to everyone.
Although Xun was only at rank 6, as the mistress of the manor and the one with the more important position, Wang Lingjun had no objection to her arrangements.
He stood up and said with great pride: "Please rest assured, Miss Xun, I will definitely fulfill your mission!"
After saying this, Wang Lingjun took his two swords and left the house to guard.
Xun then asked, "Where's Xitong?"
Xiao Niao looked at the ceiling and said, "I've asked Hong Xiu to go back to the house first."
Qian Hong stood up and said, "I'll go upstairs and watch over them."
Xun nodded: "Go ahead, Secretary Lu has already notified Tianyang, he should be back soon, we don't have to worry too much."
Xiao Niao took up his sword and said, "I will go and command the guards of the manor!"
Several girls split up and Xun stayed in the living room, ready to support everyone with her abilities at any time.
In the room on the second floor of the villa, Xitong stood at the window, looking at the lights flickering on the fortress wall in the distance:
Something seems to have happened.”
Hong Xiu gently closed the curtains and smiled softly, "We will be fine. This is the War God's Castle. Besides, with Mr. Wang and Miss Xun here, there is no place safer than our manor."
Xitong nodded, and then said seriously: "Sister Hongxiu, if anything happens, you must not leave me, I will protect you!"
Hongxiu recalled the night when she was almost killed. Xitong, who was only one or two years old at that time, suddenly grew to her current size, and easily repelled the assassin and saved her.
At that time, Hongxiu knew that the abandoned baby that Tianyang picked up outside was not an ordinary child. But so what, for Hongxiu, Tianyang and Xitong were her dearest people in the world.
"Okay, okay, I'm relying on you to protect my sister. Come on, I'll comb your hair and then we'll get ready for bed."
Pulling Xitong to sit in front of the mirror, Hongxiu picked up a comb and combed the little guy's hair.
At this moment, Xitong suddenly felt something. A strand of hair on her forehead glowed slightly, and she floated up.
Then a soft female voice sounded, dimming the lights in the room, the corridors, the villa, and the entire manor. The shadows became thicker, and a strange sense of alienation was created among the people and scenes around.
Xitong raised her head curiously and found that although Hongxiu was still helping her smooth her hair and her lips were moving as if she was talking, she seemed to be in another space and no longer in the same dimension as herself.
Space... Dimension... What is this
Suddenly Xitong realized that some words that she didn't know popped up in her little head, but she knew the meaning of these words clearly.
At this moment, she saw a soft light outside the window, and the light seemed to be calling her.
She looked at Hongxiu, then stood up, only to find that Hongxiu was still combing her hair as if she was still sitting on the chair.
A soft female voice was heard outside. It was a language Xitong had never heard before, but she understood its meaning the moment she heard it.
The voice was calling her.
Xitong's eyes were blank for a moment, symbols kept popping up in her eyes, and some knowledge jumped out of her mind. She murmured: "Fragments... return to the origin... medium... core..."
She came to the window as if sleepwalking, Xitong opened the window, and saw a figure appearing in the dimly lit garden outside.
She was a slender woman with slightly loose long hair, a beautiful face, and lowered eyes, her gaze was as gentle as the moonlight.
She was wearing a black dress, the color of which was very deep, with tiny glimmers of light flashing in it from time to time, like stars.
Xitong felt a sense of intimacy and attraction from her. The little girl pushed open the window, and a colorful light flowed around her body. Xitong floated into the air, flew out of the window, and landed in the garden.
The woman in the garden immediately lifted her skirt and knelt on one knee as if to welcome Xitong.
Xitong landed gently on the grass, raised her little face, and looked at the woman with a blank look.
The woman didn't say anything, but Xitong seemed to have heard something and nodded continuously. Finally, she said, "I allow you to return."
A crystal teardrop formed in the corner of the eye of the woman in the black dress. It slid across her face and fell on the grass.
Then she opened her arms and gently hugged Xitong in a gentle posture. Then her figure and the black dress on her body turned into a hazy, unreal black aura.
This black color was neither evil nor depraved, but rather had a noble meaning. There was a faint light flickering inside it, like a miniature of the universe. They entered Xitong's body little by little, like smoke and fog, and finally disappeared into the garden.
Xitong burped softly at this time, as if she had just had a rich dinner.
Then she heard Hongxiu's voice ringing in her ears: "Your hair is all tangled, how about I cut it shorter for you tomorrow?"
Xitong came back to her senses and found herself still sitting in front of the dressing table in the bedroom, Hongxiu still combing her hair.
The little guy was a little confused, and raised his head and said, "Sister Hongxiu, I seemed to have had a dream just now, but I can't remember what I dreamed about."
Hong Xiu put down the comb and laughed, "You didn't fall asleep for a while, did you? Okay, okay, let's stop combing and go to sleep."
Xitong nodded, then looked out the window. The garden downstairs outside the window was quiet, the light was soft, and there was no one there.
... ... ..
Deep in the desert, the moonlight is cold.
Tianyang put down the communicator. Just now, the War God Fortress contacted him and told him that an evil spirit was attacking the fortress. According to the description, it should be the jellyfish evil spirit.
"But it seems to look different from what I saw. Could it be that it grew after absorbing the forbidden seed?"
Tianyang canceled the time projection, snapped his fingers, opened the 'Gate of the Crack', entered the crack with Chiying, and then jumped to Jinxi Manor.
In the living room of the manor villa, Xun stood in front of the French window and suddenly felt something.
Turning back, she saw silver light quickly outlining a mysterious archway. When the door opened, Xun saw Tianyang and Chiying walking out.
As soon as he walked out of the 'Gate of Slits', Tian Yang saw Xun. He snapped his fingers to close the door and asked, "Is everything ok?"
"Not for now." Xun had just finished speaking when the sound of muffled artillery fire was heard outside, and then the window glass of the villa vibrated noticeably and buzzed.
Tianyang nodded and said to Chiying, "You stay and protect the manor."
He said to Xun again, "I'll go take a look outside the city."
"Okay." Xun certainly wouldn't stop him, but he still said, "Be careful."
Tianyang winked at her, then returned to his normal appearance, and in a flash he appeared outside the villa.
He ran straight out of the manor and headed outside the fortress.
Outside the fortress, the turrets, machine guns, heavy artillery and other defense systems on the city walls have been activated, sending shells trailing flames into the air, flying towards the already clearly visible evil spirit, creating fireballs around it one after another.
Below the city walls, refugees flocked into the fortress and headed to temporary shelters under the guidance of the fortress soldiers.
Tianyang came to a hidden corner on the city wall in a flash. He looked up into the air and saw the jellyfish monster.
This jellyfish monster was indeed different from what he had seen during the day. Its membrane was no longer transparent but had become darker, just like the "cloak" on the body of the forbidden species. The bottom of the jellyfish was no longer covered with flesh and blood tentacles but strips of blue-purple light.
At this moment, an explosion lifted a corner of the membrane. Suddenly, Tianyang's pupils shrank slightly, and he saw that there was nothing under the membrane!
