Xindongyang, West 42 District.
This area was originally a city on Dongyang Island. But now it has become a large area of ruins.
Broken streets, empty buildings, it looks like a scene of doomsday.
Because of those unknown creatures hiding in the dark, it has also become one of the most dangerous areas in the world.
But Xia Yunyun and Xia Liekong, like two tourists, walked casually on the street full of ruins.
Xia Liekong asked curiously: "How is it? Did you find it?"
"No." Xia Yunyun shook her head. Suddenly, her eyes moved, and she saw a gray shadow swooping down from the sky at high speed, hovering in front of Xia Yunyun.
It was a big bird that looked like a woodpecker, except that he was covered with gray feathers. Judging from the speed he swooped just now, it was far faster than ordinary birds.
This is the animal that Xia Yunyun subdued in Xindongyang, a strange bird named Xuanniao by the discoverer.
I saw Xuanniao chirping around Xia Yunyun, Xia Yunyun nodded and shook his head from time to time. This is her communicating with Xuanniao through her own ability.
Xia Yunyun's ability reached the fourth energy level after he worked hard for a long time, combined with the sudden change of Nian Qi in the fourth energy level, Xia Yunyun finally researched a new change. That is, on the basis of communication, Xia Yunyun can control animals.
In the past, even with this new change, Xia Yunyun's ability is still very weak. But now Xindongyang has gathered countless unprecedented monsters, or animals.
They became a great shortcut for Xia Yunyun to increase his strength. And Xia Yunyun's purpose of this trip is to capture a monster that suits him and can strengthen him, so as to get a good ranking in the fighting competition. He is not a member of the Great Xia Longque, so he can still participate in the competition.
It's just that in the arena where there are many strong players, if she wants to get a ranking, even if she has been training under Xia Liekong's guidance recently, her current strength is still far from enough.
After communicating with Xuanniao for a while, Xia Yunyun nodded and said to Xia Liekong: "It's just ahead, let's go."
"En." Xia Liekong lightly waved his palm, and two whirlwinds had risen under their feet, lifting them up.
"You let Xuanniao lead the way."
I saw the two people follow Xuanniao into the sky and flew towards the distant street. Xia Yunyunfei was in front, directing Xuanniao and telling Xia Liekong the direction.
Xia Liekong controlled the airflow under their feet, constantly changing directions.
He looked at Xia Yunyun with both relief and regret. I am gratified that my granddaughter has finally become sensible and has embarked on the path of pursuing strength, even willing to come to such a deserted place in order to become stronger.
Unfortunately, it was the reason why Xia Yunyun became stronger.
Although she didn't say it directly, but Xia Liekong is an old man and possesses the ability of magic dragon, so why can't he see it.
The reason why Xia Yunyun wanted to become stronger was simply to meet that person.
But even though that person is a peerless strong man, in Xia Liekong's opinion, he is definitely not a good husband candidate. But on this matter, even if Xia Liekong had the power of the fifth energy level, there was nothing he could do.
Thinking of this, Xia Liekong sighed, but did not choose.
At this moment, Xia Yunyun shouted: "There!"
Xia Liekong's eyes were fixed, and the powerful thought energy of the fifth energy level swept past.
In an alley in the distance, a silver-white lion was crawling on the ground, roaring in pain, and on his body, layers of black mucus-like things were wriggling like living creatures. , starting from its forehead, slowly spread towards the back of the body. It seemed to devour the whole silver-white lion.

Tianjing, Sky Garden Hotel.
As the hotel with the highest standard in Daxia, it has always been a special hotel for foreign guests and high-level officials in Daxia. Not only is the price high, but not everyone can come in.
Even if ordinary people have money, if their level is not enough, they will definitely not be able to enter.
But at this time, the revolving restaurant on the top floor of the hotel was reserved by a single person. The entire restaurant has been cleared except for one table by the window.
On the only table, Li Qian and Li Anping were sitting on the left and right.
The table is full of various dishes and fine wines.
The two of them were like a couple who hadn't seen each other for a long time, eating in silence and chatting about anecdotes from time to time.
And just downstairs, a group of staff listened to the content of the chat between the two of them all the time and recorded it all.
All of them are experts in psychology, sociology, physiology and other disciplines. Afterwards, they will complete a report on Li Qian's mental state and submit it to Li Anping for review.
In the current Great Xia, Li Qian's ability is very important. Before Li Anping found a substitute, and before artificial intelligence made breakthroughs, Li Qian's abilities were especially precious.
And because of personal reasons, Li Anping is absolutely unwilling to use violence to control the other party unless it is absolutely necessary.
Li Anping put down the tableware, wiped his mouth with a tissue, and looked at Li Qian tenderly: "What's wrong? Don't you like eating these?"
Li Qian shook her head and looked out the window. Looking down from this position, you can see the night view of the center of Tianjing. Countless lights, feasting and greenery interweave a bustling scene.
Seeing Li Qian's appearance, Li Anping grabbed Li Qian's hand on the table. Li Qian struggled for a while, her face flushed slightly, and she let the opponent grab her.
"you are not happy?"
Seeing that Li Qian lowered her head and did not answer, Li Anping said calmly, "Have you heard about the marriage?"
"Um."
"That's just for stability." Li Anping said flatly, "They are different from you."
Under Li Anping's superhuman sense of sight, hearing and smell, Li Qian's heartbeat, blood, endocrine and even hormones are all clearly seen by him.
So he frowned slightly, stood up suddenly, and walked behind Li Qian. In the surprised eyes of the other party, he hugged Li Qian from behind.
"I heard from Momo that the newspaper's intelligence network has covered 60% of the country during this time."
"Thanks a lot."
The man's unique warmth rose in Li Qian's ears, dyeing her cheeks flushed.
Downstairs, the screen kept refreshing Li Qian's various indicators, heartbeat, endocrine, blood pressure...
After a long time, a researcher said, "That's fine, Your Majesty."
Li Anping's ears moved, and Li Qian who was in his arms was gently released. He smiled and touched Li Qian's head, and said softly, "Your birthday is one month away, do you want anything?"
Li Qian laughed like a little girl: "Don't tell me in advance." She stood up, walked in front of Li Anping, suddenly pecked Li Anping's cheek lightly, and flew away like a bird the next moment. gone.
Her silvery laughter echoed in the restaurant: "Give me a surprise."
Seeing Li Qian's happy look, Li Anping also laughed, only the depths of his eyes were still full of indifference and ice like an iceberg.

The ringing phone rang, Liu Sheng still stared at the screen, and answered the phone without looking back, but without saying a few words, his expression changed drastically and he began to have a heated conversation with the person on the other side of the phone.
A few minutes later, as if he had lost everything, he hung up the phone with an ugly face. After thinking about it, he picked up the receiver again and made two calls.
Half an hour later, Liu Feng and Yang Guang hurried to Liu Sheng's office. A team member waved his hand to greet the two, but found that the other party ignored him, and just left with a nervous face.
Liu Feng pushed open the door of the office, Yang Guang couldn't wait to squeeze in, and then closed the door.
He looked at Liu Sheng seriously and asked, "Are you sure?"
Seeing Liu Sheng nod his head, Liu Feng said angrily, "What's going on, didn't you already send someone to follow? How could something happen again, have you found out who did it?"
Liu Sheng also regretted, "In order not to attract attention, I didn't send a person with abilities. I came back in two weeks, who would have thought that someone would have such courage."
Yang Guang said, "Could it be someone from the Federation?"
Liu Sheng shook his head: "Impossible, they should be the ones who most want to buy time now, how could they take the initiative to provoke us."
Liu Feng disagreed: "The federation is not a federation of one person. Maybe there are people who will take the risk. We must be prepared for this possibility."
"If it's really them, what is their purpose? This time to ascend the throne?" Yang Guang asked.
Just as the three of them had another heated discussion, the door of the office was opened.
Liu Feng said without looking back: "Who let you in!"
But Liu Sheng said with an ugly face: "Your Majesty..."
The three of them looked in the direction of the office door at the same time, and saw that Li Anping was opening the door and entering the office.
"what happened?"
It was only then that the three of them remembered that Li Anping was in charge of the entire Tianjing, and there was almost nothing he couldn't detect.
Seeing the silence of the three, Li Anping turned his gaze to Liu Sheng: "Say it."
Under the pressure of Ruyou's substantive eyes, Liu Sheng sighed, and said calmly: "Two weeks ago, Miss Anna went to the Western Continent as an exchange student at the Federal Central University. The protection personnel were there about an hour ago."
Speaking of this, Liu Sheng couldn't help but paused, and finally sighed: "They lost contact with Miss Anna."
"Anna... is missing."
The anger he imagined didn't come, Liu Sheng couldn't help but look up, but found that Li Anping's face didn't change, he just looked at him calmly.
Then a series of orders came out of Li Anping's mouth: "Within half an hour, I want to see the information of all relevant personnel.
Within six hours, the information of all the high-level ministers above the ministerial level of the Federation, as well as all the families of capable people, will appear in front of me. "
Liu Feng on the side moaned as if the sky had fallen: "My lord..."
Li Anping just smiled coldly: "Don't worry, they are the ones who should be afraid now."
