"Let's not stay here. Shenguan Island is about to sink. Let's go outside." Hou Junji said.
Wu Chen looked down in a hurry. He was shocked to see that the entire Shenguan Island was shaking violently. The endless sea water had already submerged the area that originally belonged to the coastline. The water level was still rising and was rushing to other places.
This is certainly not because the water level of the Niluan Sea has risen, but because the entire Shenguan Island is sinking.
"It seems that we have been trapped for quite some time."
The Shenguan Island is open each time for three months to half a year, and when they just entered the abandoned city, not much time had passed. However, when they came out, it was already time for the Shenguan Island to sink.
"Walk."
Everyone immediately flew out of the Shenguan Island area and flew towards the area outside the Shenguan Island.
Soon, they flew out of Shenguang Island. Looking back, they saw that the sea water had submerged half of the island. Large numbers of trees were soaked in the sea water. If things went as expected, the entire Shenguang Island would be submerged soon.
"Things here have come to an end. Where should we go next?"
Shenguan Island is about to sink completely. There is no point in staying here any longer.
Wu Chen thought about it and said, "In my opinion, it is better to go to the Xuanwu Empire. This Shenguang Island is relatively close to the Xuanwu Empire."
The others looked at each other and had no objection. Now, they were traveling and practicing outside, and it would be the same wherever they went. Since the Xuanwu Empire was relatively close to here, there would be no problem going there.
In fact, for Wu Chen, the reason why he went to the Xuanwu Empire was due to three considerations. First, the geographical location of the Xuanwu Empire was indeed close to the Shenguan Island, closer than other empires. Second, he had already been to other empires, such as the Black Dragon Empire and the White Tiger Empire, so naturally he would not go there again. As for the remaining two empires, the Xuanwu Empire and the Suzaku Empire, he had not been there yet, so naturally he had to go and see them. Third, Huang Pu Changhen was from the Xuanwu Empire, and he got a mysterious jade stone and planned to return it to Huang Pu Changhen, so naturally he had to go to the Xuanwu Empire.
After making the decision, the group boarded the ship to the Xuanwu Empire. On the way, Wu Chen and Shun Yan told Xia Youlan, Yue Qingzhu and others about their experience of being trapped for several months, and Xia Youlan and others also told them about what happened outside the Shenguan Island. In particular, when they talked about how Yue Qingzhu used the Moon Shadow Conversion Technique countless times to rescue them and nearly died in the Shenguan several times, Wu Chen was deeply moved. Although Yue Qingzhu's Moon Shadow Conversion Technique did not work, he could feel her sincerity.
The Xuanwu Empire, one of the four great empires in Zhongzhou, is also one of the most powerful forces in the entire Tianwu Continent. In Zhongzhou, everyone knows about it.
The Xuanwu Empire is a place where many strong people gather, whether they are the older generation or the younger generation. Among the many young strong people, one person stands out the most. This person is none other than Huang Pu Changhen.
Huang Pu Changhen, a direct descendant of the royal family of the Xuanwu Empire and the third son of the current Emperor Huang Pujun, is extremely talented, aptituded, and powerful. He is the best among all the young people in Zhongzhou and ranks first on the Tianbei ranking list. His position is unbreakable and no one can shake it.
Xuanwu City, the imperial capital of the Xuanwu Empire, is also the economic, political, military and cultural center of the Xuanwu Empire. Like Black Dragon City and White Tiger City, it is one of the top ten cities in Zhongzhou. It is densely populated, with people jostling for position and a constant flow of people.
"This Xuanwu City is really huge, majestic and magnificent."
Walking in the street, the group of people exclaimed in amazement again and again. Xuanwu City is the largest city in the Xuanwu Empire. All kinds of goods are gathered here, which is dazzling and overwhelming.
After walking around for more than half an hour, Wu Chen looked at the sky. It was already afternoon and the sun was gradually setting.
"In my opinion, we should first find a place to stay, solve the accommodation problem, and then consider the next step."
No one had any objection, they all listened to Wu Chen. Among them, although Wu Chen might not be the oldest, his cultivation and strength were the strongest, and he also had the most experience in all aspects, so they all listened to him.
The group found a restaurant, rented a few rooms, and stayed there.
The darkness enveloped the entire earth, and the entire world became quiet.
In the room, Wu Chen couldn't sleep, so he walked out of the house, planning to go out for a walk and see the night view of Xuanwu City.
“Crunch.”
The sound of a door opening came from the next room, and a person walked out of the room. Wu Chen turned his head and smiled. It was Yue Qingzhu.
"Good evening."
Yue Qingzhu was stunned. When she looked up, she saw Wu Chen looking at her with a smile.
"Good evening."
Wu Chen walked over slowly and said, "You can't sleep either, do you want to go out for a walk?"
Yue Qingzhu nodded: "Yes."
Wu Chen said: "In this case, why don't we go out for a walk together and take a look at the night view of Xuanwu City, how about that?"
"good."
Yue Qingzhu did not refuse. It was so nice to have someone to accompany her.
The two of them went downstairs and went outside.
In the sky, a silver moon hangs high, casting endless light and illuminating the entire sky.
"Thank you so much this time."
Yue Qingzhu stopped, looked at him, and asked curiously: "Thank me? Thank me for what?"
Wu Chen said: "Thank you for always looking for me."
Yue Qingzhu said: "I didn't contribute a bit to this incident, and my Moon Shadow Conversion Technique didn't play any role, so you don't have to thank me at all."
Yue Qingzhu knew very well that the reason Wu Chen and Shun Yan were able to get out this time was entirely due to the efforts of Huang Pujun. It was he who used the Emperor's Seal to break the divine light layer outside the Divine Light Island, and it was he who shattered the space of the abandoned city, allowing them to get out safely. Therefore, she really did not contribute at all.
Wu Chen shook his head. What he said was not the same as what Yue Qingzhu understood.
He knew that performing the Moon Shadow Conversion Technique was not an easy task. It consumed a huge amount of energy each time. The divine light also had infinite destructive power. The slightest negligence would lead to a catastrophic disaster. Yue Qingzhu insisted on coming to find him despite taking such a big risk. He would always remember this friendship in his heart.
