Chapter 674: Lure the Tiger Away from the Mountain
Xue Qingwu asked again, "You just said that Zhou Yuqian has wood-type abilities? Then what else can he do? Tell me."
Xue Qinglin then explained to Xue Qingwu in detail for a long time how to use supernatural powers, etc., regardless of whether they could understand it or not. The other people in the family listened carefully. They usually didn't come into contact with these things, so of course they listened to it with relish as a story.
Xue Qingwu's fourth sister, Xue Qinglai, was mesmerized by what she heard. "Brother, since Zhou Yuqian is so powerful, then the mutant beast riots in Sun City and Moon City shouldn't be a problem, right?"
Xue Qinglin nodded affirmatively: "With all the Returned True Men from Sun City and Moon City dispatched, and the support of several hundred Returned True Men led by Zhou Yuqian from the Zhou family in the Imperial Capital, nothing will happen!"
To a certain extent, Xue Qinglin was right. Nothing happened in Sun City and Moon City. The leading high-level mutant beast had a very high IQ. It led thousands of mutant beasts to deploy troops at the junction of Sun City and Moon City. The barrier of the Sky-Splitting Cave Abyss appeared. The leading mutant beast tore through the space, but turned around and opened a new space at the junction of Sun City and Moon City.
Xue Qingwu was writing down the method of using the supernatural power that Xue Qinglin had mentioned, but he found that the room was suddenly plunged into darkness.
Xue Qingwu suddenly looked up, threw down the pen in her hand, ran to the window, and looked outside. She saw a huge, black hole-like crack slowly opening in the sky above Yuncheng. It was -
Xue Qingwu said in shock: "The barrier of the Sky-Splitting Cave Abyss!"
Wherever she looked, all she could see were deep black cracks. The leading mutant beast tore through space and leaped out of the sky-cracked cave. It was huge, like a lion or a tiger, standing on all four claws in the air, with its huge head raised to the sky and howling, as if calling its own kind.
If Xue Qingwu could see the Sky Crack at the junction of Sun and Moon Cities right now, he'd know the difference between the two. The narrow Sky Crack at the junction of Sun and Moon Cities was merely a cover-up used by the leading mutant beast to deceive human eyes. Its true target, its true intention, had always been Cloud City! The leading mutant beast had played a true trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain, retaining the gravity that could return to the real person in Sun and Moon Cities! And the real danger was always going to be in Cloud City!
Hordes of mutant beasts jumped out from the sky-cracked cave one by one. In less than a moment, the sky above Yuncheng was densely packed with all kinds of strange-looking mutant beasts.
Xue Qingwu looked at the leading mutant beast that leaped out first. It was three or four times larger than the other mutant beasts. Remembering the description in the book, she blurted out, "Biao Beast!"
The moment the leading mutant beast leaped out of the sky above Yuncheng, it immediately triggered Yuncheng's air defense barrier. The transparent barrier with huge energy automatically isolated the beast outside and quickly and comprehensively expanded the barrier to the surroundings. In just a blink of an eye, Yuncheng's protective barrier was activated from the sky in an instant.
The beast didn't care. It paced back and forth in the sky, as if waiting for the best time to attack.
The Yuncheng Returned True Persons who were already preparing for battle responded quickly. Overwhelming figures gathered from all directions. The middle-level and high-level Returned True Persons quickly leaped into the sky and confronted the mutant beasts in a flash.
At the same time, an alarm sounded on the ground in Yuncheng: "Citizens of Yuncheng, please quickly enter the underground air-raid shelter! Citizens of Yuncheng, please quickly enter the underground air-raid shelter! Citizens of Yuncheng, please quickly enter the underground air-raid shelter!..."
Ordinary people were panicked for a moment, and when they heard the alarm, they hurriedly ran into the underground air-raid shelter with their families. The air-raid shelter was densely packed with people. Because of the monthly air-raid shelter drills, adults and children were relatively skilled, and there were special people to guide and take charge. After entering, everyone adapted well and cooperated, moved very quickly, and their emotions were mostly stable.
At the Xue family's home, Xue's father and mother called the whole family to hide in their underground air-raid shelter. Xue's mother kept nagging, "Luckily, our Xue family is considered an aristocratic family. We have our own underground air-raid shelter, so we don't have to squeeze into public air-raid shelters with so many people. But our Yuncheng is really unlucky. How did we become the target of the mutant beasts? Hurry up and get in! Don't miss anyone! I wonder how your two sisters are doing? Your eldest sister will definitely be fine. Your eldest brother-in-law is very careful. Your second sister..."
Lan Qinglin followed them into the underground air-raid shelter. His superpowers had just awakened and he was young, so his superpowers were not enough to tickle the mutant beasts. So he followed orders and entered the safe underground air-raid shelter with ordinary people.
In fact, this is just a precautionary measure, allowing ordinary people to hide in it. In case the mutant beasts really break through the barrier, ordinary people still have the last line of defense, which can minimize the casualties of ordinary people.
