On the airplane, Luo Qianqian’s expression was complex. No matter how much she racked her brain, she couldn’t have imagined that the person flying them would be Wei Ming, and even more unexpected, they would have a backup pilot assigned.

This is Old Master Wei’s own grandson, and he is willing to take such a risk? Moreover, it was said openly that he would be standing by on the other side, waiting for Luo Qianqian and her team to triumphantly return together.

"Have you finished your research? Can I kick them out?" Luo Qianqian looked at Yan beside her, her face complicated. They hadn’t even left the border yet; wouldn’t Wei Ming be better off landing in some valley than joining them on this perilous adventure?

Yan held the manual, looking at Luo Qianqian with a serious demeanor, and solemnly said three words: "Can’t understand it!"

Luo Qianqian smiled bitterly. Exactly, this isn’t a remote-controlled airplane; how could it be so easily understood?

And sitting beside them was none other than Deng Ming, who turned back amused: "Don’t bother researching. Do you think we would do something so foolish as to dig our own grave by letting you understand it clearly, making us lose face?"

Their presence represented the stance of both Old Master Deng and Old Master Wei, and in such a situation, they wouldn’t feel comfortable sending someone else.

"I don’t want to see you, turn back!" Luo Qianqian glared at Deng Ming. Even if these two were armed, so what? Could those things possibly withstand what they were facing?

Deng Ming chuckled and turned back. It was clear that Luo Qianqian was quite upset.

Meanwhile, planes were taking off in all countries, all sharing the same idea that if the issue could be resolved at the source, it shouldn’t be left unchecked until it becomes uncontrollable.

Although it hadn’t yet spread to their countries, it might certainly do so in the future.

The Sanctuary Alliance headquarters was also gathering quite a crowd. They never expected the first spark to ignite here, where it was utterly unavoidable.

After departing the airplane, Luo Qianqian watched Deng Ming casually jimmy a roadside car, shrugging and pointing to a hotel not far from the airport: "Actually, I planned to stay over there, considering that staying anywhere these days doesn’t cost anything."

It’s not just one country; all countries are unanimously choosing not to work and subsisting on food stored earlier in the day.

The hotel in the most dangerous country opened all its rooms, welcoming visitors.

And at the moment, besides the homeless, the hotel is left only with this group of foreign guests.

Luo Qianqian was quite surprised that this small hotel was so considerate, stocking every room with emergency food.

"How do you see this?" Calmly, she climbed to the top floor, entered an open room, pulled open the curtains, and gazed at the magnificent scenery within reach.

The sky seemed to be torn open with a massive rift, leading to a mysterious and unknown world, from where unsettling figures were slowly crossing over into their world through the chasm.

The immense silhouette couldn’t be made out, looking bizarre and monstrous, but one could see scale armor, suggesting it was some kind of creature.

"At this rate, it will come out by tomorrow at the latest," Yann Yao calmly observed the sky, also feeling shaken. Even though the books had descriptions, seeing it up close was hard to believe.

This was a sensation words couldn’t convey.

Meanwhile, Huangfu Yihui was calmly taking pictures with his camera beside them.

"Coming out? What is this?" Deng Ming was horrified and disgusted by the thing emerging from the sky like something gross being expelled.

"Exotic demon." Mo calmly looked at the sky: "This means we’re actually lucky; we only need to deal with exotic demons this time. If it were the native Otherworld inhabitants, they would be far more troublesome."

Luo Qianqian was taken aback, then looked at Mo: "What exactly is this exotic demon?"

In terms of this knowledge, she certainly couldn’t compare to the four people beside her.

"It’s a type of creature, judging by its size, it’s likely an elementary exotic demon. According to records, although they’re rare, being sent as the vanguard is more than adequate due to their abilities..."

"Corrosion." Yan calmly looked at the sky, then turned to Luo Qianqian and sighed: "Huangfu Yihui’s ability won’t be of any use."

Huangfu Yihui was of the wood attribute and naturally susceptible to the Corrosive Force.

Luo Qianqian hesitated as she looked at Yann Yao. Though Yann Yao’s attribute was also water, it seemed he couldn’t freeze water into ice like she could. Once water is polluted, it ceases to be a gentle healing force and becomes a destructive power.

Yann Yao shook his head: "I’m afraid I, too, can do nothing. Shiqi, you..."

"I’m fine." Luo Qianqian shook her head and smiled at Yan and Mo: "As the host, I definitely won’t let you fight alone. Rest assured, I can protect myself."

Her small hand gently waved in the air, twisting into an ice arrow, with a small black bow appearing in her hand. She opened the window and calmly shot the arrow, not aiming at the creature in the sky since she wasn’t a descendant with that ability.

At best, she could protect herself.

Regarding Luo Qianqian’s bow and arrow accuracy, both Deng Ming and Huangfu Yihui, along with Yan, had a certain understanding, so they didn’t say anything.

Meanwhile, Wei Ming and Deng Ming looked at each other, until these things unfolded in front of their eyes, they still couldn’t believe it.

It was only at this moment that they truly understood both old masters’ advice before their departure, stressed the importance of keeping Luo Qianqian safe at all costs.

"I see the people here have already been forced to leave. On the opposite building, even along the way here, there was no presence of anyone." Luo Qianqian glanced at the sky, her eyelashes trembling slightly, wondering if her brother was worrying about her.

"Let’s eat something first. Man is made of iron, food is steel; you need to be full to have the strength to fight." Luo Qianqian chuckled, reaching out to Yan: "Take out your secret stash of snacks."

Yan, looking exasperated, took out some food. Deng Ming and Wei Ming were already beyond surprise, as if whatever this group did was normal.

"Alright, Wei Ming, Uncle Deng, you two can happily wash and go to sleep in the next room. Oh, by the way, there’s no power, so no hot showers. Want me and Yan to boil some water for you?"

"No need." Deng Ming hurriedly waved his hand and grabbed a large bag of small bread and a whole box of chocolate pies before turning and leaving the room.

Wei Ming nodded and quickly took his food and left, sensing that she’d want to say something and he shouldn’t stand there like a statue.

He decisively entered the room Deng Ming chose next door. Although both were atheists, the situation defied their imagination, and being together provided a sense of safety...
