Online: I Can See Health Bars-Chapter 1227 - 542: The Ten Pillars

The Ten Major Families of Thunder City are actually quite recognizable.

Because within the territory of each of the Ten Major Families, a giant iron pillar almost reaching the clouds is installed, like a Tongtian.

At this moment, the iron pillar of the An Family is faintly flickering with strands of electricity, seeming to be in an unstable state.

Boom!

Suddenly, a thunderbolt under a clear sky!

A lightning strike lands directly on the An Family Courtyard, causing a commotion among the people inside!

"What was that just now?!"

"It’s happening again..."

"It’s been getting more frequent these past few months."

"We must fix this quickly, or the situation will just keep deteriorating."

"The invitations have already been sent, by now those guys should be on their way."

"Too slow, these sects have grown arrogant and forgotten who supported them to achieve their current status!"

"You better believe, some of those guys have really grown quite a lot of arrogance over the years."

Someone sneers.

"No matter how arrogant, can they contend with our An Family? Can they contend with Thunder City? The Soothing Spirit Pillar is only the first one, all other nine pillars must be checked too!"

"Third Elder, you’re not referring to Zhongfu Temple about those arrogant guys, are you?"

"Who else but them! That old guy sends over a young monk, claiming he’s too old himself, who knows if he’s reliable. If anything goes wrong, I’ll personally go to Zhongfu Temple and drag that old fellow over!"

Everyone just shrugs at this remark.

That Zhongfu Temple is quite a distance from Thunder City, going back and forth would be troublesome.

So Third Elder’s words are just that.

"Report!!"

At this moment, a servant rushes in with a letter.

Third Elder takes the letter, tears open the envelope, and a look of joy appears on his face.

"Good! The people from Night Cloud Sect have arrived, I’ll go arrange things for them."

With the letter in hand, Third Elder hurriedly leaves.

The others left behind just shake their heads slightly.

"Cinnabar arrived first after all."

"That’s fine, the demand for Cinnabar Blood is also quite substantial, deal with it first."

"No rush, if it’s not fresh blood, the effect won’t be good. Wait for other ’medicinal people’ to arrive, then deal with them together."

Hearing this, everyone nods in agreement.

One person merely strokes their chin.

"The most important ’Painter’ has been replaced. Zhongfu Temple better not mess things up for us, or when Thunder gets angry, they won’t cope easily."

Boom!

At this moment, another thunderbolt under a clear sky, a lightning strike lands, this time on the Soothing Spirit Pillar.

The giant pillar standing virtually between heaven and earth, its body covered with ancient dragon and phoenix carvings, the strands of current run along these lines like a thunderstorm, and soon fade away.

...

"Bald Pigeon, are we almost there?"

Guo Yuxin pokes her head out of the carriage.

Quan Heng continues driving the carriage without turning his head.

"Still far."

"So boring, I’ve heard the wild is supposed to be thrilling, yet I feel no excitement at all."

Along the road, if monsters appear, Quan Heng handles them, sometimes even while Guo Yuxin is sleeping soundly inside the carriage, Quan Heng has already eradicated potential threats.

In such a peaceful environment, there’s nothing to bring excitement to Guo Yuxin.

"By the way, you still haven’t said why we’re going to Thunder City?"

"Don’t ask too much, Master has given orders and I’m following them. As for you..."

Quan Heng slightly shakes his head: "You shouldn’t have come, Thunder City has been bustling with activity recently, the road ahead may be full of danger."

Guo Yuxin giggles.

"Wherever Bald Pigeon goes, I’ll go!"

Facing someone unafraid of death, Quan Heng finds it hard to convince the other with words.

He gazes ahead, the official road stretching onwards appears endless, but his thoughts drift back to that chaotic night when Tianyuan Town was destroyed.

Powerless against demons, pained at the suffering of all beings that couldn’t be saved, he devoted himself even more to studying Buddhism.

That night, he saved many, but also witnessed many deaths.

The survivors he placed at Zhongfu Temple, quite a few joined as monks, while most sought their paths later once they settled down.

Everyone has their fate, Quan Heng could only save those present.

"After some more distance, we’ll arrive at Thunder City, once there, you should speak less and follow my lead. If you cause trouble in Thunder City, not even I can protect you."

"That serious?" Guo Yuxin blinks, yet her eyes reveal curiosity and excitement.

"Will there be many handsome guys? Big city, full of good-looking guys on the streets, right?"

Quan Heng calmly clasps his hands together, murmurs ’Amitabha’, and continues driving.

...

Thunder City.

White Cloud Inn.

"Repeat!"

Fang Yu turns one punch into two, and the Erosion Level rises by 1%.

Mastered.

Or rather, basically mastered.

At least for practical use there’s no problem.

As for more advanced techniques or other methods, it requires slow exploration.

Squeak.

At this moment the door opens, Fang Yu turns to look at the entrance, seeing Ding Hui massaging her temples in exhaustion, sitting directly on the bed.

"How is it? How’s the investigation?"

Fang Yu pours a glass of water and hands it to her.

"Very chaotic."

Ding Hui frowns, takes the water and drinks it all at once.

"Thunder City has been searching for patients infected with Blue Blood Disease recently, it’s caused chaos throughout the city."
