Chapter 619 - A Short and Decisive Attack!
Chapter 619 A Short and Decisive Attack!
In the capital, there were some weeds in the corner of the small yard where the elder stayed for a long time. He let them live there. Now they had some pink flowers. Although not as good as the precious flowers planted in the garden of the yard, they were much more tenacious.
“Teacher, what do you think of my calligraphy?” The elder put away his brush.
Standing beside the table, Zhong Ren looked at the words and read out loud, “A short and decisive attack.”
“How is it?”
“Chief, are you talking about Chu Xun?”
The elder chuckled slightly and said, “I thought it would be difficult to let the warriors withdraw, but I didn’t expect the problem to be easily solved. Now all the Martial Tao forces are withdrawing, and the military has gradually taken over the cities.”
“You started to cultivate late and have been staying in the capital for a long time. Maybe you don’t understand what Chu the Devil means to warriors.”
“Oh?” The elder thought that he knew Chu Xun well.
“Chu the Devil is not just a name. It’s because Chu Xun has fought with his life for years. In the warriors’ eyes, he is as important as you are in the ordinary people’s eyes,” Zhong Ren said.
The elder was not surprised. Although he had never seen Chu Xun’s battles, he could imagine. “Is it like I take care of the home while he is in charge of external affairs?”
Zhong Ren was stunned. “This analogy is a little inappropriate but understandable.”
With a flash, Chu Xun appeared in the yard.
“What makes you so happy?”
Zhong Ren bowed and said, “Chief and I are talking about you.”
“Oh?” Chu Xun asked with interest, “Are you badmouthing me?”
“He made a metaphor of the relationship with you,” Zhong Ren said with a smile. It was just a joke. He knew what to say.
“Please tell me about it.” Chu Xun walked over, took the writing brush from the elder, and wrote two words “success” and “failure” on a paper. The word “success” was much bigger than the word “failure”.
The elder waved his hand, and a guard ran over. The elder handed him the paper with the words. “Make it a plaque and hang it behind my desk.”
“Chief said that he takes care of the home, and you are in charge of external affairs. What do you think of your relationship?”
Chu Xun distanced himself from the elder with a look of disgust on his face. “I have three beautiful wives, and Jing Hong is pregnant now.”
The elder and Zhong Ren both looked happy and congratulated Chu Xun.
“Do you have a name for it?” Zhong Ren asked.
Chu Xun shook his head and smiled. “I don’t know if it’s a boy or a girl, so I haven’t thought about the name yet.”
“Is it a problem? You can prepare a name for a boy and a name for a girl.”
Chu Xun nodded and said, “I need some more time to think about it.”
“Why don’t we think about it together?”
The elder shook his head and said, “This is Chu Xun’s first child, so it must be named by himself.”
“Is there any story about a first child’s name?”
“No, but isn’t it more meaningful for you to choose a name for your first child? If you can’t come up with any name, you can ask that man for help. I can help you choose a name for your second child.”
Chu Xun nodded slightly and agreed with him.
The three chatted for a while before returning to the main topic about what to do next.
“It’d be best if the Heavy Sound Cannon could be put into use on a large scale as soon as possible.”
The elder nodded. “We have distributed some to the cities far away from the capital.”
Zhong Ren looked up and saw the bright moon in the sky. They had talked for a long time, and it was 12 o’clock at night.
“Have all forces withdrawn from the cities, right?”
The elder looked at Chu Xun and said, “You have to be more careful in the future. You have offended too many people’s interests. Although those people don’t dare to say anything, they hate you in their hearts.”
Chu Xun nodded. Those forces had taken root in the cities for a long time and formed a circle of interests. However, they were driven out by him. They must have resentment of him.
“What is that?” Zhong Ren pointed to the south.
Chu Xun and the elder looked in the direction of the sound and saw a bloody thread in the sky. It was rather bright in the dark. The thread became wider and wider, like a fierce beast opening its bloody mouth.
Suddenly, the pupils of the three contracted, and scarlet liquid began to flow out of the bloody mouth. The scarlet liquid fell to the ground from the sky like a waterfall.
“There’re figures inside,” Zhong Ren exclaimed.
Seen from thousands of miles away, clear figures were in the blood-like liquid as if countless people were jumping down from the waterfall.
All the forces were retreating out of the cities, and they saw the scene.
“What does it mean? Is the sky bleeding?”
“I feel a strong smell of killing and blood. There must be something wrong with it.”
Everyone began to discuss spiritedly. They were all guessing what was going on.
Among the great forces, there were a few elders whose expressions changed. They recalled the terrible race recorded in ancient texts.
At the same time, the elder’s secret phone rang.
“Come with me,” the elder said to Chu Xun.
Chu Xun glanced at the strange phenomenon in the sky and followed the elder in a hurry.
In a secret room, the staff inside were in a hurry. A man with a fine appearance and glasses led the elder and Chu Xun into a room full of various instruments.
Chu Xun knew that these people were all top talents in the field of technology and were recruited secretly by the country. Each of them had unimaginable achievements in a certain field.
“Chief, this is a short video sent back from outer space by satellite.”
Chu Xun and the elder stared at the screen. Above it was a vast starry sky, and the blue planet was the earth, which was several times bigger than before.
In the starry sky, huge ships were flying around the earth as if they were going to rush in. One of the ships was surrounded by a yellow light, and all kinds of runes were flowing around it. It rushed to the earth at a terrifying speed but exploded. An invisible force tore it into pieces, and it burst into a terrible fire in the starry sky. Although seeing from a screen, Chu Xun and the elder could feel the terrible explosive power.
“What the hell is it?” The elder frowned but did not panic. “Is this a spaceship from another country?”
With the development of technology, before the mutation of the earth, various countries had begun to explore other planets in the universe and tried to find other lives.
The man with glasses shook his head and said, “Chief, Major General Chu, please watch another video.”
“How do you know me?” Chu Xun asked curiously.
“Who doesn’t know you in the world?” The man’s eyes were burning with curiosity and great respect. Although they were top talents, without the protection of Chu the Devil, they were just ordinary people.
Chu Xun nodded in response. He looked at the screen, and his pupils contracted. However, the elder said in surprise, “Are they alien lives?”
In this video, a warship emitted light waves and built a platform in the void. A few people began to work. Their heads looked like those of beasts or birds. The bodies below their neck were like those of humans.
Chu Xun saw that these people had set up working stations, signal towers, and others on the platform composed of light waves. He asked curiously, “What are they doing?”
The man with glasses looked at the elder.
“Speak ahead.”
“We have received some strange characters like musical notes before. I guess it is their language, and we are trying to interpret their language,” the man with glasses said.
“Chief, I think we have to make an emergency plan to prevent these warships from coming in in case that we will be too late to do anything to defend them,” the man with glasses suggested.
The elder looked at Chu Xun and asked, “What do you think?”
“Please relax yourselves,” Chu Xun chuckled, “They can’t come in.”
“Why?” The man was curious.
“You don’t have to be worried. Keep an eye on them. If there is any problem, please report it to the chief in time. I will deal with it.” Chu Xun patted him on the shoulder.
The man was smart. He knew that he was not qualified to know some secrets, so he nodded and continued to work.
“How many warships are there in total outside the earth?” Chu Xun asked.
“There are ten ships, and one of them was in ruins,” the man said.
“Are you sure they can’t come in?” The elder asked Chu Xun. Now the earth was in chaos. If these guys with strange heads came in, it would be hard to imagine what would happen to the earth. These guys were definitely not here to travel.
“Don’t worry,” Chu Xun said.
Not to mention the rules of the earth, with the defensive formation set up by the first Ancestral Dragon, even an Immortal Emperor couldn’t come in.
“Please read their language as soon as possible and see what they want to do,” Chu Xun said.
The man with glasses nodded and promised, “Don’t worry, I will hold on.”
Chu Xun was still thinking about the strange phenomenon outside, so he did not stay any longer and left with the elder.
They went back to the yard where the elder stayed for a long time, everyone was still looking up, and the strange phenomenon on the horizon had not disappeared.
Chu Xun frowned slightly. What was the storm that Emperor Ao mentioned? Was it the strange phenomenon on the horizon or the warships outside the earth?
Rumble!
A loud sound came from the horizon, like the sound of a drum being broken. Another bloody thread appeared in the sky and slowly widened like a waterfall. The blood-red liquid rushed down, mixed with many figures making threatening gestures.
“I have to go and have a look.”
“Be careful!”
Before the elder finished his words, Chu Xun soared into the air and shot out like a stream of light.
“He is a blessing of Huaxia,” the elder murmured.
Chu Xun sped up to his extreme, causing rumbling sounds in the air. Many people looked up at him in shock.
As the saying went, never mistook a clear view for a short distance. Even if he flew at nearly eight times the speed of sound-breaking for two hours, he would only manage to cover half the distance.
Suddenly, Chu Xun stopped and stood still in the air. A shocking figure appeared in front of the hole where the scarlet liquid came out. It was tens of thousands of meters high, and its upper body went into the clouds almost as high as the sky.
Chu Xun’s expression was serious. What on earth was this? It made Emperor Ao come out. The amazing figure was his real body. He usually transformed himself into a human figure and hid his real body.
“Blood race, you’ve gone too far.”
Emperor Ao’s voice sounded. He slowly raised his hand, covering the sky and the sun. With a boom, he slapped on the bloody mouth and blocked the blood liquid. He raised his other hand and slowly clasped two hands together like a zipper. The bloody mouth was quickly closed while the whole world was shaking.
