Chapter 576 151: Supreme Heaven Purification Field
Nest City Lower City, the 10th extra-regional area, amidst the ruins.
This used to be the R District of Lower City, but due to a fire a year ago, all buildings and public facilities were burned to charcoal, and everyone died. No company is willing to take over the reconstruction, and the Nest City Council is too lazy to care, so they simply included it as an extra-regional area.
At this moment, a man with an extremely burly stature, his shoulders as wide as a double-door refrigerator... yet with an honest-looking face, is walking through the ruins, occasionally rubbing a handful of ashes and bringing it to his face to feel it, letting out a soft sigh.
This man is the second new-generation disciple of Old Jin, and Yun You's most trusted second senior brother—Heaven and Earth Hero Chen Zaikun.
The place where he is now, used to be Yun You's hometown.
Very strange...
Although Yun You always trusts this second senior brother, she has never shared her past experiences with any of her senior brothers.
Only Old Jin knows about it, and even then, only half-understandably, not fully aware of the complete picture.
She has said that revenge is her own matter, she will not let anyone kill for her, so even Old Jin doesn't know where the tragedy actually took place.
And with Jin's character, he would certainly not disclose this matter to others without Yun You's permission.
Even so, how did Chen Zaikun find his way here?
No one can know the answer.
"Hmm..."
Chen Zaikun rubbed a lump of charcoal from the ruins, took it to his nose, carefully sniffed his fingertips, and nodded slightly.
"I see."
"No wonder those Shadow Cabinet guys found their way here; it turns out there's also a precious treasure hidden in this Lower City town."
"Poor junior sister, she really was caught in an undeserved calamity."
Chen Zaikun sighed lightly, then with a flash, he moved into an abandoned building.
Here, he vaguely sensed a trace of Yun You's aura.
"I suppose junior sister used to live here."
Chen Zaikun looked around.
Though the fire devoured the building completely, consuming all the original things, Chen Zaikun could still vaguely make out the building's original appearance from the extremely narrow passageways and the small, cramped rooms.
This place was a small tube-shaped building often crammed with hundreds of people in it, a typical dwelling for the poor lower class.
"It's exactly the same as my childhood environment."
Chen Zaikun shook his head with some emotion, muttering: "All born from poor families, without vast wealth, no so-called noble status, nor any social standing, the bottom of the bottom."
"Perhaps because of this, we value 'opportunities' so much."
"For others with a family background or the Apprentice Death God, if something carries more than a 30% life risk, they have to consider it carefully, and if the risk reaches beyond 50%, unless the reward is particularly rich, they would never consider it."
"As for 70% or even higher risk, even the nobles known for adventurism would never attempt it."
"But if such an opportunity is placed in front of us, I think we would all accept it without hesitation, after all, those from the lower class often seize every opportunity available."
"From this point of view, you and I are really quite alike, I hope in the future, we can always stand on the same front."
Having said that, his phone rang as if he had received a communication from someone.
But he didn't even look at it, turning his head instead, gazing toward T District, as if anticipating the appearance of that dark orb.
"It's also time to make an entrance."
This simple man grinned, showing his usual contented smile.
"The unfulfilled wish of the teacher over the years, also needs to be realized."
With those words, his figure instantly vanished from the spot.
And in the next moment after he left, several figures in black robes appeared where he had just stood.
"Damn it, still a step too late...!"
The leading man in black cursed under his breath, his fingers brushing against the wall of the building.
On the wall of charcoal, the warmth of Chen Zaikun's hand still lingered.
"Who could it be? Is it Elrond? Or his disciples? Or... some figures lurking in the shadows."
"It can't possibly be Elrond himself."
Another man in black shook his head, saying: "He has always been at Rust Bay and the outskirts outside the city, he hasn't entered the city for a long time... moreover, his life signal is very distinctive, we couldn't possibly confuse it."
"And it's unlikely to be one of Elrond's students either, his strongest senior disciple is just a Tier Five Death God, and not good at speed, making it impossible to avoid our surveillance."
"So who could it be?"
The leader in the black robe squinted his eyes.
"I don't know, but it's also not important."
The man in black pointed towards the direction of T District.
"As long as the leader can succeed in the next operation, then whether it's Elrond Gold, or any other so-called force, they will all have to bow down."
"Wait."
"Wait for the day when the situation changes."
"By then, the situation will completely change."
"As for now... let's do our own thing."
Hearing these words, the other black-robed figures nodded continually in agreement.
Then, the group of figures disappeared as well.
The 10th extra-regional area seemed as if such a group of people never appeared and nothing happened, only that in each corner of the ruins, hundreds of invisible tiny surveillance cameras were added...
