The Ancient Gods' Whisper-Chapter 1036 - 487: Qilin Invasion_2

Su Youzhu fell into silence and calmly said, "Sometimes, double standards can be a weapon. Since it’s a weapon, it depends on who’s using it. We can’t say the knife is wrong just because someone used it to kill."

Yet, no one noticed that Gu Jianlin revealed a look of sudden realization, as if a new world had opened up to him.

So it can be like this.

It seems that he hasn’t truly mastered this lineage’s legacy.

"Brother Lin, Youzhu."

Cheng Youyu suddenly said, "We’re about to enter the Inner City."

The so-called Inner City is actually a region independently divided by an Alchemy Matrix.

Similar to Black Cloud City, it is an independent spacetime, and ordinary people without spirituality cannot enter.

However, the difference is that there still exist ordinary people within this massive Inner City, completely unaware of the Extraordinary World’s matters, yet genetically capable of becoming Ascenders, potentially awakening at any moment.

Including their descendants, the probability of becoming Ascenders is also incredibly high.

Once the Maybach drove off the elevated highway into the bustling city, the street scenes suddenly fluctuated as if passing through an invisible barrier. Pedestrians remained, vehicles continued to jam, the streets brightly lit. Neon signs of the hair salon flickered, KFC and McDonald’s stood off across the street, elderly folks on bikes emerged from the market, vendors pushed carts across the zebra crossing, and the number six bus stopped by the sign.

Gu Jianlin, however, heard an explosive Life Rhythm.

Generally speaking, if he doesn’t deliberately listen, the Life Rhythm of ordinary people is almost automatically ignored.

Only the Life Rhythm of Ascenders is particularly distinct. 𝙛𝒓𝒆𝙚𝒘𝒆𝓫𝙣𝓸𝙫𝓮𝒍.𝒄𝒐𝓶

The problem is, he’s never been to a city where so many Ascenders gather, as if countless distinct melodies simultaneously resounded in his ears, utterly bewildering him.

"In this situation, don’t try to listen."

Su Youzhu shot him a glance and calmly explained, "This place is different from Tokyo and Peak City. Apart from those exploring on the front lines of the Ancient God Realm, the vast majority of Ascenders are gathered here. Since the second layer of the Qilin Immortal Palace opened, the dimensions that can be entered in the Ancient God Realm have doubled. As long as you’re not too far away, you can use a key to go in and out, so there’s no need to particularly stick to cities along the East Sea Coast."

Gu Jianlin let out a long breath, turning off Life Perception.

"We’re not going to get caught, are we?"

Cheng Youyu’s hand trembled on the steering wheel: "If we get discovered..."

After all, this is Magic City.

The center of the Order World, the Judgement Court’s lair.

Fatty felt like a dog entering a wolf’s den, fortunately cloaked in a husky’s skin.

"Relax, the main forces of the Order World should be too busy to bother us."

Gu Jianlin glanced at the time on his phone, confidently said, "Seems about right."

Su Youzhu turned to look out the window, terrifying fireworks surged from the sky, accompanied by overwhelming booms.

Boom!

Cheng Youyu shuddered in fright, hurriedly slamming the brakes.

The sound of the air raid sirens echoed throughout the Inner City. As a native born in Magic City, he certainly knew this was actually a high-alert warning for Transcendent invasion.

Red lights illuminated the night sky, flashing a full ten times.

Highest alert!

"The teacher and the Master Uncle must’ve been discovered."

Gu Jianlin said seriously, "With these two troublemakers around, we’re just small fry."

Su Youzhu shot him a side glance, "You really crack me up."

It reminded her of a saying.

Teammates get caught, continue laughing and playing.

Sure enough, at the intersection ahead appeared Demon Hunters from the Judgement Court, wearing their iconic silver masks, holding a bundle of balloons, looking just like ordinary vendors, reaching out to stop them.

Cheng Youyu showed a friendly smile, took out an ID from his pocket, "We’re good citizens!"

This was an ID No.5 arranged for them, the Shadow Department had thousands of spare identities, applicable all over the world, written into the deepest database of the Deep Space Network and hasn’t been modified since.

The three of them all underwent facial modifications before departure, perfectly matching the features on their IDs.

The Demon Hunter also clearly realized the Inner City was invaded and, without much inspection, hastily let them pass.

Thanks to the notorious Green and Red Dual Kings.

According to No.5’s calculations, by now, there would be plenty of Spirit Mediums or Divination Masters guarding various major passageways, easily discovering their trouble-making and inevitably leading to an investigation.

In that case, they would need to escape using force.

Unexpectedly, the two old thieves drew the fire, making it unexpectedly easy.

Su Youzhu took out a note, glanced at the coordinates written on it, calmly said, "I’ll head off now."

After saying so, she vanished into thin air like a ghost through Virtualization.

Cheng Youyu paused in confusion, "Where did Youzhu go?"

"Youzhu won’t be acting with us."

Gu Jianlin calmly said, "In some sense, Youzhu is also a Night Watcher."

Cheng Youyu immediately understood.

The girl’s mission is to find Vice President Lin Dong!

"What about us then?"

Cheng Youyu felt his heart racing as their counteraction officially seemed to start today.

"To be precise, it’s me, not you."

Gu Jianlin gestured for him to park the car, opened the back door, got out, breathing in the summer air, gazing at the brightly lit night scene, "By the way, where’s the Deep Space Headquarters office building, which floor does Platinum work on?"
