Deng Ming, who often prided himself on his vast knowledge and experience, was now standing wide-mouthed, unable to utter a single word, his face marked by panic and helplessness. The person who usually acted like an elder had vanished, leaving behind a puppet with a mind in total Blank.

This was all beyond their understanding. He thought, after going through yesterday’s events, that he couldn’t be surprised by anything anymore, but he never anticipated that the world was far beyond his comprehension.

Luo Qianqian sighed and looked at Wei Ming’s bewildered and fearful eyes: "Do you feel we are being cruel by watching the drama here?"

Wei Ming was slightly taken aback at her words but still nodded earnestly; that was indeed how he felt, and there was no need to hide it. They were straightforward people, no need for convoluted talk.

Grandpa sent him here partly because he trusts him and partly to broaden his horizons.

"Because we haven’t interacted with this thing, we have no idea how it attacks. Rather than rushing around in confusion, it’s better to calmly wait and see. These people nearby are not from our two countries; only those from nations who sent people are nearby." Luo Qianqian lightly closed her eyes: "If it were our compatriots in danger, I might risk my life to save them, but they aren’t, so I won’t risk my and my friends’ safety."

Listening to Luo Qianqian’s words, Wei Ming fell silent.

Luo Qianqian was right; earlier, he indeed felt Luo Qianqian was cruel. But if rescuing someone would lead to Luo Qianqian and the others getting hurt, he would rather have them all stand by.

Grandpa said that if necessary, he and Deng Ming must protect this group with their lives.

"Aren’t their own countrymen just watching too? Besides, the area is sealed off, and people have been expelled. If it weren’t for someone swaying them or letting them pass, how could they get in?" Huangfu Yihui was indeed very calm. Although he disdained the Royal Family’s schemes, he had grown up in it, seen much, and naturally understood some things.

"They are merely discarded cannon fodder," Yann Yao spoke with his usual demeanor, showing no particular concern.

Born in the Cultivation World, to them, death was not unusual, and they didn’t feel anything wrong with these people dying.

If they discovered a Secret Realm, they too would send advance troops and only enter in large numbers once ensured it was safe; these types of people have always existed.

Yan and Mo also appeared very calm without any noticeable emotion.

Luo Qianqian let out a gentle sigh, walked to Wei Ming’s side, and patted his shoulder, which was just a bit higher than hers: "Brother Xiao Ming, our world is not quite what you imagine."

"What I’m thinking is, shouldn’t you change your pants? Aren’t you worried wearing a skirt... hmm..." Wei Ming looked at Luo Qianqian, who was much shorter than him, with a face full of concern. He had already dismissed the previous thoughts; Luo Qianqian was right—they belonged to different worlds and naturally couldn’t apply the survival rules of one world to another.

"No matter what it is, if it touches me, do you think I can still escape?" Luo Qianqian shrugged helplessly: "I won’t get too close to that thing; it’s quite disgusting after all..." 𝕗𝚛𝚎𝚎𝐰𝗲𝗯𝗻𝚘𝚟𝚎𝗹.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Being ugly is not a crime, but coming out to scare people is wrong on your part.

Coming out to invade their world while being this ugly is even worse, almost making one vomit their breakfast—luckily, they hadn’t gotten to breakfast yet.

"Shiqi." Uncle Ram also pushed the door open and entered, his face solemn, carrying a sharp aura.

Wei Ming and Deng Ming were both stunned; these people... were far from simple as they imagined.

"Uncle Ram, Sister Jones." Luo Qianqian saw them and also gave a slight smile: "Hope you didn’t have breakfast; otherwise, seeing that thing would surely make you vomit."

The group walked to the window, where it was crowded with people staring at the Exotic Beast that wasn’t doing anything and remaining perplexed.

"The Sanctuary Alliance should act first, right? Let’s just wait and see." Mrs. Jones calmly watched the pitch-black creature, even seeing its Scale Armor refract with rainbow colors under the sunlight.

Finally understanding what ’variegated black’ truly means...

Luo Qianqian nodded repeatedly, having the same thought. Considering the previous uproar and the Assassination Order issued, there’s no need for them to be the first to act; better to wait for the Sanctuary Alliance to take action. If the Sanctuary Alliance can resolve it, they witness the show; if not, acting out of duty later is also commendable.

"Want something to eat?" Luo Qianqian pointed at the pile of snacks on the bed and blinked: "Although seeing that thing makes you gag, treating it like watching a movie might be nice?"

"I haven’t watched a movie in a long time." Mrs. Jones smiled and waved: "I’ve already eaten breakfast, and what I eat is fixed."

"Is that so? Then Uncle Ram, don’t be shy; eat whatever you want." Luo Qianqian nodded and continued observing the direction of the Exotic Beast.

Wei Ming hugged a bag of chips, munching loudly, provoking Luo Qianqian to turn and glare at him: "Brother Xiao Ming, are you really watching a movie here?"

"Yah oh..."

A loud roar suddenly echoed across the sky.

Both Luo Qianqian and Yan, Mo, Huangfu Yihui, and Yann Yao retreated two steps back, even spitting out a mouthful of blood due to the spiritual power backlash.

Before Wei Ming could say anything, the powerful roar knocked them to the ground, shaking the surrounding earth, and the windows of the nearby buildings all shattered without exception.

Even the people standing perfectly at the window fell to the ground, their faces pale.

The sound was so deafening that they were caught off guard, causing Deng Ming to bleed from his ears directly.

Luo Qianqian was shocked and hurriedly grabbed Deng Ming with one hand and Wei Ming who fell to the ground with the other, swiftly carrying them into the next room unnoticed, then vanished, handing them over to her brother before returning to the room and carefully closing the door.

Upon her return, everyone was still in a daze, even Luo Qianqian herself was unsteady on her feet, her spirit in a haze due to the shock.

"What happened...?" Mrs. Jones, helped up by Ram, looked over through the shattered window at the Exotic Beast, which seemed quite furious.

Mrs. Jones spoke extremely loudly, but given that everyone’s hearing was impaired, the loudness suited their current condition.

Luo Qianqian rubbed her head, silently speculating before speaking: "Its purpose here might be invasion, but it seems there is no suitable target for invasion here, which angers it?"

Unfortunately, apart from Luo Qianqian herself, only the four people whose spiritual power was repelled heard her words.

But clearly, they had all guessed this possibility.
