Run into the world

Chapter 599 Another Disappearing Illusion
The large illusion that appeared in the South Korea region could be said to be the last of the foreseeable benefits brought by Duanmu Xiang’s own rebirth, but strictly speaking, he didn’t know much information about that illusion.

However, Duanmu Xiang did not care too much about this matter. She had to go, but what really had an impact on them or on the Chi Kingdom was the war.

Ming Feng made a name for himself in this war. After Duanmu Xiang's action in the space elevator, after so many people had witnessed his strength, no one would easily go to war with the Chi Kingdom again. However, things seemed to be a little different from what he expected.

"So... everyone thinks that I have some special means of restraint that makes me immune to the charm of that perfect woman, right?" Duanmu Xiang was a little amused.

Fu Qingmiao spread his hands helplessly, "People are always used to believing in the truth that they can understand or explain. Even if the explanation and truth are ridiculous!"

Duanmu Xiang sighed. Although it was funny, it was understandable. After all, he felt the terrifying power of that perfect woman firsthand, so his first move was conceptually sharp. That was his most powerful killing move.

But it is precisely because the conceptual level of sharpness is too advanced that in reality, the number of people who have mastered it proficiently in the world may be less than one hand, let alone the conceptual level ability?
Precisely because it was too advanced, those people couldn’t understand it and interpreted his ability as some kind of restraint.

The time when Duanmu Xiang truly demonstrated his strength was actually in a large illusion, but those who were lucky enough to witness it were all killed by the Youquan Blood Demon. This led to the foreigners being only a little wary of him, but not believing that he had the ability to dominate the world.

"According to the news sent back by the Zhou family's overseas intelligence network, the Western Alliance has already known about the existence of the magic mirror. It is said that the person who inquired will arrive in the South Korean area in three days."

Fu Qingmiao's words surprised Duanmu Xiang, "Zhou family's intelligence? Although they are responsible for external affairs, have they been so active in sharing intelligence before?"

Fu Qingmiao shook her head, laid her head in Duanmu Xiang's arms, and said slowly: "Zhou Meng is dead, and the Zhou family also lost the sundial magic weapon. I heard that it was obtained by someone from the Western Alliance. In addition, some intelligence reported by some disciples of the Thirteen Pillars Family showed that Zhou Meng had contact with people from the Western Alliance when he was in the illusion. The Zhou family said that they have reason to suspect that someone from the Western Alliance killed Zhou Meng, so..."

"Zhou Meng..." Duanmu Xiang had a deep impression of this Zhou family member. Of course, it was not because of him, but because of Wen Du's mention in his previous life.

Duanmu Xiang thought for a moment and asked again, "Since the enemy has obtained the sundial weapon, has the Zhou family mentioned the specific function of the sundial weapon?"

"It was mentioned that it can adjust the 24 solar terms and thus control the weather! Well, specifically, it seems to be able to cause disasters such as floods, rainstorms, and mudslides. Anyway, it's pretty advanced."

Duanmu Xiang was a little surprised but her heart was moved. It could control the weather? It could also make Wen Du in his previous life feel a little tricky. It should be a magical weapon that can trigger momentum or intention. Well, if it falls into the hands of a master who cultivates the will of nature, it might be even more powerful, such as...himself.

Of course, Duanmu Xiang was a little disappointed at this time, but the sundial was obviously a good thing worth paying attention to. If you come across it this time, just take it back. Whether you keep it for yourself or return it to the Zhou family to get a favor, it is an excellent choice.

Duanmu Xiang started to get naughty as she was about to start. She rubbed Fu Qingmiao's domineering part, which made the other party furious. She then turned over and pressed him under her.

Just when Fu Qingmiao was about to start a battle to tame her husband, the voice of her personal guard Fu Keying came from outside, "Miss, son-in-law, Hou Guangming is here to visit!"

The two of them paused, and Duanmu Xiang had an ugly expression, seeing that Fu Qingmiao was completely naked, and you came knocking on the door at this time?

"Just say I'm busy now, and we'll shit together when we have time. Get out!"

Duanmu Xiang shouted in a panic, turned around and stretched out her hand to grab Fu Qingmiao's waist, pulling him towards her. Just as she was about to start a bloody battle, she heard someone outside shouting, "Son-in-law, Hou Guangming said that the situation is very urgent. I'm afraid that we can no longer give you the benefits of the Zhao family's eternal illusion!"

Ok?
Fu Qingmiao and Duanmu Xiang stopped their actions again. This time the impulse in their minds completely cooled down. They looked at each other and realized the seriousness of the problem.

The Zhao family is the stepping stone and ladder for the Fu family to become the Thirteen Pillars Family. In addition to the role played by Duanmu Xiang and Fu Qingmiao in the Zhao family's affairs, the Fu family has an interest in the Zhao family's eternal illusion.

Of course, the Fu family is a new family among the Thirteen Pillars, so they may not be qualified to enjoy this benefit. However, because of the existence of Duanmu Xiang, other families gave the Fu family a share of the benefit, but this benefit was actually for Duanmu Xiang.

It can be said that as long as Duanmu Xiang remains the powerful man who dominates the world, he will never lose this benefit. But now he is suddenly informed that it is gone?

Duanmu Xiang didn't think that the Thirteen Pillars Family was going to test his strength for no apparent reason, but he really couldn't imagine what kind of changes would happen for a while.

He had no choice but to help Fu Qingmiao put on her dress, and the two of them went out together to meet Hou Guangming.

In the living room, Hou Guangming's appearance startled the two of them, "Good fellow, look at how weak you are, is Zhong Tianai so good at squeezing you?"

Hou Guangming looked haggard, like a middle-aged internet addict who had been online all night for a week. His appearance was that of a last gasp of youth.

"Hurry up and sit down. Don't come here to blackmail me!" Duanmu Xiang pointed at the stool, fearing that the guy might dig over it.

Hou Guangming had a bitter face, and did not refute the teasing. He just said directly with a complicated look in his eyes: "The eternal illusion of the Zhao family... has disappeared."

"..."

What I fear most is the sudden silence in the air, as if the entire yard inside and outside has suddenly lost all sound.

After a full three seconds, Duanmu Xiang and Fu Qingmiao gasped at the same time!
Although they were well-informed, and even Duanmu Xiang had seen all the gods and Buddhas in the world, they still found this matter incredible.

You know, what level are the masters who can have the power to influence the world beyond illusion? At least they must be at the level of Guanyin and Dizang!

Now there seems to be only one eternal illusion that is known to have been closed, and that is the one of the Qian family. However, that one seems to be in the lawful camp. It simply drove out all the Qian family members and then closed the door.

Although Qian Xiaoguang and Qian Sheng'er said they had no idea, Duanmu Xiang didn't believe them because they didn't seem too surprised or shocked when they mentioned the so-called unknown senior.

Duanmu Xiang felt that the Qian family might know who closed the Eternal Illusion, but even if they told it, outsiders would not understand, so there was no need to tell them.

But the situation of the Zhao family's eternal illusion is different. Duanmu Xiang had once entered this eternal illusion. He had a good relationship with Huang Xuemei, who killed most of the Zhao family's manpower. It can even be said that Duanmu Xiang's conceptual sharpness came from that eternal illusion.

Uh... well, when it comes to conceptual sharpness, Duanmu Xiang can say with certainty that there must be a powerful being at the level of Tathagata or even beyond Tathagata hidden in that eternal illusion. It would make sense if someone really took action to close the door to the illusion.

Duanmu Xiang took a deep breath and asked, "Is anyone injured?"

Hou Guangming was a little depressed. "There were no casualties, but... all the looted secret manuals, weapons, precious medicinal materials, minerals and other materials were stored in the manor in the illusion. We never thought we would encounter such a situation, so we didn't think about moving there. Now we have lost everything!"

Hearing this, Fu Qingmiao patted his shoulder sympathetically and said, "It's not your fault for not being well prepared. It's just that the world is changing too fast." After saying this to comfort him, he raised his head and shouted to Fu Keying outside, "Quickly notify the head of the Fu family to transport or copy all the resources obtained to reality and change the storage location in the future."

Hou Guangming smiled bitterly. You are just rubbing salt in my face. You two are such dogs!

Duanmu Xiang also reached out and patted his shoulder, then took Fu Qingmiao's hand away, "Don't think too much, the so-called freedom from worry may be a good thing. Haha, you see, brother's family doesn't have an eternal illusion either, but they live happily anyway!"

Hou Guangming: “…”

Hou Guangming obviously came here to inform him of this matter. Duanmu Xiang expressed his gratitude for the notification and invited him to stay for dinner and drink porridge, but Hou Guangming politely said no.

After Hou Guangming left, Duanmu Xiang sighed helplessly, "I was originally thinking about when I would have time to visit old friends like Huang Xuemei, but who knew that the separation would come so suddenly."

Fu Qingmiao twisted his lower back and snorted coquettishly, "You are greedy for Huang Xuemei's body, right?"

"You are wrongly accusing me. My own wife hasn't even completely surrendered yet, so how could I have the leisure to provoke such a ruthless person?"

Fu Qingmiao raised her eyes slightly, "Then what kind of performance do you think someone should have to show that they have been conquered by you?"

"Well, at least poop with me!"

"Hey, whose private toilet has squat toilets in a row?"

Fu Qingmiao covered her face, feeling deeply that her man's understanding of "surrender" was too profound. She estimated that the two of them might never be able to achieve it even if they were entangled for a lifetime.

With that thought, her body lightened, and she instinctively wrapped her arms around the other person's neck. Duanmu Xiang said seriously, "We are evenly matched. Even if we fight for 10,000 rounds, there is no way to tell who will win. I think we should place our hopes on the next generation, hoping that they can find a lover to take a shit with in the future!"

Fu Qingmiao said disdainfully, "Then you must at least have a descendant, one that is closer to Luo Xian..."

Duanmu Xiang knew exactly what she would say when she was jealous, so she blocked her mouth...

Time passed slowly and leisurely. Without the pressure from the six-eared macaque, Duanmu Xiang got along more harmoniously with Fu Qingmiao. At least the latter never mentioned Luo Xian again.

However, the days that are coming soon are short after all, and a life full of changes is the norm, and no one can tell whether these changes are good or bad.

The Zhou family's intelligence arrived very quickly, but this time they did not specify where the mirror weapon was, but said that the Western Alliance army had landed in Incheon.

The intelligence did not show how the talks between South Korea and the Western Alliance broke down. In any case, the Western Alliance did not get the mirror weapon, and then they claimed that it was the South Koreans who stole their magic weapon and refused to return it. This was a blatant provocation, so the war broke out.

Of course, the Western Alliance's statement is more complicated and written than this, but it is essentially correct.

Previously, Fu Qingmiao was worried that the South Koreans would not be able to withstand the pressure and directly hand over the mirror weapon to the Western Alliance, so that they would not be able to fight this battle. Now it seems that she was overthinking.

"Haha, a corrupt divine weapon, this kind of thing has never happened before. No matter what it will become in the end, it must be unique. I think the South Korean side wants to gamble on the country's destiny!" Ming Feng said.

At this time, Mingfeng, as the representative of the Peng family, was sitting in the hall with Duanmu Xiang, Fu Qingmiao and others.

Fu Qingmiao smiled and said, "I told you a long time ago that this war is inevitable. It has been almost twenty years since the disaster, and the Westerners' thinking patterns will not change just because the world rules change. They always stockpile guns when their neighbors stockpile food, thinking that everything can be solved with violence, but they never thought that your neighbors might also stockpile both food and guns."

Mingfeng smiled but said nothing when he heard this. In fact, there was no need to say anything specifically about this matter. Anyone who had some knowledge of history, or had taken compulsory history classes, should understand the nature of Westerners.

Duanmu Xiang stroked her chin with interest. "The situation in South Korea is already bad. They won't let go of this rare opportunity to rise. After all, the worst outcome will be about the same as it is now. Why not take a chance?"

"When will you decide to send troops?"

Duanmu Xiang asked casually. Fu Qingmiao and Mingfeng looked at each other and replied, "Actually, a few months ago, before the space elevator even had an accident, I had already sent spies to prepare in secret."

Duanmu Xiang was surprised and glanced at Ming Feng who was also surprised, "You had expected this battle a long time ago?"

Fu Qingmiao's expression was very serious. If Duanmu Xiang had not slept with his arms around her last night, he might have been scared by her.

"Yes, the influence of the Western Alliance has been weakening since the disaster, and the significant reduction in navigation capabilities has allowed many countries to break free from their control." Fu Qingmiao spread his hands, "To put it more clearly, the people of the Western Alliance are eager for a major war to consolidate and continue their influence before the disaster. If they don't fight South Korea this time, they will fight the island countries. Anyway, they have to fight one or more battles, and they have to fight beautifully."

Duanmu Xiang tried to suppress her laughter. This woman was really good at pretending. It was obvious that he told her the result in advance, and then she deduced these reasons. However, seeing Mingfeng's expression of disbelief and admiration, Duanmu Xiang felt that he had to support his wife.

"No wonder you said you wanted to research new materials for your battle suits several years in advance, you're really planning ahead!"
