Godslayer: My Forbidden Ruins Master

Chapter 280 Master: He Will Be the Next Commander Ye

The people who arrived were none other than Zhao Kongcheng, Wu Xiangnan, and several others.

"Didn't you go for a foot massage? How come you're here so quickly?" Hongying asked in surprise.

"Something's wrong! We just heard that all flights and trains to Cangnan have been suspended!"

Wu Xiangnan said heavily.

"How is that possible? We just arrived, and everything was fine before!" Hongying exclaimed in astonishment.

"Not only that, I called the captain and Lu Xuan and the others, but found that they were not in the service area. This is very abnormal. We can't even make contact with our secret communications. Cangnan... I'm afraid something has happened."

Zhao Kongcheng's face was gloomy.

……

Cangnan City.

This once bustling little city is now deserted, with almost all the shops on both sides of the street closed, and only a few doors still open.

There were hardly any pedestrians or private cars on the streets, with only a few military vehicles covered with tarpaulins occasionally speeding by.

Just yesterday, the government issued an emergency notice to the entire city, and residents are now evacuating in an orderly manner.

Of course, it is almost impossible to completely evacuate such a large population in a short period of time, so most people are asked to stay at home temporarily and not participate in group activities.

When the baby looks around, he can see the residential buildings, almost all of which have their windows tightly closed, giving him a strange and eerie feeling.

Lin Qiye was meditating and cultivating in the living room when Lu Xuan glanced at him and sensed that the aura emanating from him had become significantly stronger.

It seems this chosen one has made some breakthroughs in the mental hospital.

Captain Chen Muyi was nowhere to be seen; he was most likely out assisting the army in maintaining order in the city.

Sensing Lu Xuan's gaze, Lin Qiye opened his eyes. The two looked at each other and saw the seriousness in each other's eyes.

"The situation is very bad, it seems like something big is about to happen, and just to be on the safe side, I suggest we try not to separate."

Lin Qiye stood up, his gaze introspective, and said solemnly.

"Okay, shall we go for a walk?"

Lu Xuan made the suggestion.

The two left the office and walked onto the deserted street, standing on the Peace Bridge and gazing into the distance.

The once shimmering river is now deserted.

"what is that?"

Suddenly, Lin Qiye couldn't help but rub his eyes, his expression changing slightly.

Lu Xuan's senses had spread out, and he could clearly see a carriage speeding towards him across the canal in the distance. Surprisingly, the carriage made no noise on the river as it approached, as if it were walking on an illusory river.

Then the carriage made a graceful drift in front of the two of them and came to a stop.

"We meet again, young friend, and Lin Qiye. Please get in the carriage; I have something to discuss with you both."

The carriage curtain was pulled back, revealing an elderly man with white hair and a youthful face.

It was Master Chen with a smile on his face.

And far away.

The rumble of thunder could already be heard.

The once clear sky darkened rapidly at a visible pace. Dark clouds gathered from all directions, creating a suffocating sense of oppression.

After a short while, one could even see streaks of lightning surging above the black clouds, as if they were about to fall to earth at any moment to carry out divine punishment.

A sudden gust of wind howled, causing Lu Xuan and Lin Qiye's clothes to flutter wildly.

"You...who are you?"

Lin Qiye was stunned.

"The Master, one of the pinnacles of human potential..."

Lu Xuan explained.

Lin Qiye was astonished. He was even more surprised that Lu Xuan seemed to know the old man in front of him, and that the old man even called Lu Xuan "young friend".

"You can just call me Master Chen. Young friend, it's been a while, and you've made great progress. Come on up, let's chat in the carriage," Master Chen said with a faint smile.

The carriage stopped in front of the two of them, and the page who was driving the carriage stood up and made a respectful gesture of invitation.

"Go up, Seven Nights."

Lu Xuan smiled and made way for him.

"Why? Lu Xuan..."

Lin Qiye was stunned. He didn't understand why Lu Xuan would give him this opportunity to reach the pinnacle of human potential.

Moreover, he had a vague feeling that something big was about to happen. Being with this human ceiling was definitely the safest option, so why did Lu Xuan choose to be alone outside?

"Because you are more important than me right now, aren't you, Master? Take Qiye with you. Only in this way... can we get through this disaster smoothly."

Lu Xuan looked at the Master and made a request.

"Young friend?! You..."

Master Chen was taken aback. In fact, he had been paying attention to the city's developments over the years, especially to Lin Qiye.

As a high-ranking official in China, he naturally understood that this city existed because of Lin Qiye.

It was a miracle in itself.

Miracles eventually come to an end.

And now the time for this to end is almost here.

He made a special trip back this time because an unprecedented disaster was sweeping across China, and the target of this disaster was directly this city.

He had to protect Lin Qiye, and similarly, the Master wanted to protect Lu Xuan, because in his view...

Lu Xuan is a true talent, and his future potential is in no way inferior to Lin Qiye's.

He even had a very strong premonition deep down that Lu Xuan's achievements would surpass Lin Qiye's!

But at the moment.

The Master finally realized that he had underestimated Lu Xuan from the very beginning.

The fact that the other party could say such a thing meant that he had actually seen through the strangeness of the city long ago, and even understood Lin Qiye's identity.

Even though the other party was fully aware of the disaster that was about to be faced, they still chose to stay outside.

"Master, you should understand that the root of this disaster is that if I were to enter your carriage, it would only make things more complicated for you. The fact that you are not outside will actually make Lin Qiye safer."

Don't worry, I won't die that easily.

Lu Xuan smiled, turned around and left.

"Lu Xuan!!"

Lin Qiye let out a soft cry; he really wanted to chase after Lu Xuan and catch him.

From Lu Xuan's words, he clearly understood that a disaster was probably about to strike, but Lu Xuan had given him the hope of survival.

He couldn't understand why such an important opportunity would be given to him.

But he had only taken a few steps when he was frozen in place by an invisible force.

The teacher, who had been sitting in the carriage, was now standing next to him.

With his hands clasped behind his back, his eyes, filled with the vicissitudes of life, gazed at Lu Xuan's departing figure as if trying to see through everything.

"Let him go. He's right. If young friend Lu Xuan survives this ordeal, he will be the next Commander Ye!"

The Master sighed.

Lin Qiye stared blankly at Lu Xuan's disappearing figure.
