Chapter 516: Emergency Return
Chapter 516: Emergency Return
The secret realm collapsed, merging with the mortal world.
This wasn't anything unusual; such occurrences had happened before.
Li Qian had seen it in various documents.
However, after the fusion, the dimensional rift leading to a deeper plane would not simply disappear.
With this in mind, Li Qian immediately asked, "What about the dimensional rift?"
Although he already had a rough idea of the outcome, he quickly voiced his question.
"In this emergency, teachers from Cloudwave Beastmaster University, special forces from the City Security Bureau, officials from the Handling Bureau, and high-ranking members from the prominent families of Cloudwave City joined forces to seal off a thirty-kilometer radius around Cloudy Mountain."
Mu Qianqian's virtual image still carried a lingering sense of shock as she continued, "With the combined efforts, we've managed to temporarily contain the situation."
"However, within the secret realm, there are high-level extraordinary beings, and their numbers are increasing rapidly."
Mu Qianqian rubbed her forehead, expressing her helplessness, "According to Principal Zhao of Cloudwave Beastmaster University, this situation won't last long."
"At most, three months. Those extraordinary beings from the dimensional rift might break through the array's seal and enter the mortal world."
"If that happens, the situation will undoubtedly be beyond imagination..."
Although Mu Qianqian didn't finish her sentence, her meaning was crystal clear.
With so many high-level extraordinary beings, if they entered the mortal world, Cloudwave City would likely become a wasteland.
"Are there no legendary Beastmasters?" Li Qian furrowed his brows.
"Legendary Beastmasters, those big shots, are strategic weapons," Mu Qianqian explained, "According to Principal Zhao, each of them is stationed at a critical location and cannot be easily moved."
"And no one has the authority to do so."
Mu Qianqian paused, sighed, and continued, "By the way, there's something else I need your help with. Elder Rongzu, in order to give us a chance to leave the secret realm, has already..."
"Sacrificed himself? How is that possible!" Li Qian was startled.
According to his knowledge, a mutated ancient golden banyan companion beast with a strength at the Holy Spirit rank would rarely fall, even when besieged.
Mu Qianqian looked at Li Qian and said solemnly, "It's not entirely gone. Elder Rongzu left behind a seedling, and this is also another reason I'm calling you today."
"You want me to help cultivate the seedling Elder Rongzu left behind?" Li Qian immediately voiced his guess.
On the other end of the call, Mu Qianqian didn't hesitate. She nodded affirmatively, "Yes, you're the only one I can think of, and I believe you're the only one capable of bringing Elder Rongzu back."
Hearing this, Li Qian felt a bit helpless and rubbed his temples.
Mu Qianqian really had high expectations of him!
Li Qian was confident about cultivating the seedling left by Elder Rongzu and growing it into a new ancient golden banyan.
However, whether he could bring back the already fallen Elder Rongzu, he couldn't be certain.
Whether the seedling carried Elder Rongzu's will was something Li Qian couldn't confirm at the moment.
If it did, it might indeed be possible to bring him back.
If there was no support, even if an ancient golden banyan tree was cultivated, it would just be a new individual.
"You don't need to come over, I'll return to Cloudwave City tomorrow," Mu Qianqian said, ready to send over the seed left by Banyan Ancestor, but Li Qian immediately stopped him.
He spoke of his plan.
This was the plan he had just formulated.
If Cloudwave City were to riot, the impact would not be limited to just Cloudwave City.
Almost as Mu Qianqian explained the current situation in Cloudwave City, Li Qian immediately thought of his parents.
His hometown, Lingshui City, was not far from Cloudwave City.
If Cloudwave City encountered problems, Lingshui City would most likely be affected.
Li Qian's return this time to understand the situation in Cloudwave City was just one of the reasons.
There was another very important reason... assessment.
Assessment of whether to bring his parents from Lingshui City.
According to Li Qian's understanding of the two of them, they would definitely not agree, but if it involved the worry of life, even if they didn't agree, he would have to act immediately.
Precisely because of this, this trip to Cloudwave City was a must for him.
After having a plan, Li Qian didn't waste any time.
After informing the school, the next day, he prepared to leave and head towards Cloudwave City.
However, to his surprise, just as he left the Third Secret Realm, a figure appeared at the entrance, attracting his gaze.
"Irina, how did you end up here?" Li Qian asked, a little surprised.
"What do you think?" Irina asked in return.
Li Qian looked at Irina and then at himself, suddenly realizing, and then he smiled bitterly.
At this moment, Irina's appearance here had an obvious purpose.
Just now, he was only concerned about himself and didn't react in time.
"But..." After learning of Irina's purpose for appearing here at this time, Li Qian hesitated, unsure of what to say.
To be honest, he was quite touched that Senior Irina had come to help him.
However, her strength, according to the current situation, was not much better than his own.
If he encountered an enemy he couldn't handle, her presence would only be an extra burden.
Thinking of this, Li Qian froze in his tracks.
He pondered how to tactfully express his thoughts to Senior Irina.
But just as Li Qian organized his words and prepared to speak, the latter seemed to know his thoughts.
She glanced at Li Qian and said with a hint of pride, "This time, it's different from before."
"This time, I have my ace with me, and I can definitely help you."
Given Irina's identity, Li Qian didn't doubt her at all.
He didn't think much and said directly, "Since that's the case, let's hurry and leave."
"Mhm."
Irina also knew the situation was urgent, and Li Qian was surely anxious, so she didn't waste any time either. Following her footsteps, they left Shazhou Beastmaster University.
The two of them boarded a free cloud roller coaster provided by the school, and before long, they arrived at Shazhou City's teleportation center.
Just as Li Qian and Irina prepared to use the teleportation array to go to Jiangnan City and then transfer to Cloudwave City, a surprise suddenly descended.
