Aftermath of the Calamity
And so, Wu Yang Jin quickly showed the soldiers and those who tried to stop him how formidable he was.
Soon after, Wu Yang Jin took Gu Yuena and left the place, secretly finding a small hotel.
Then, we went into this small hotel, booked a large room, and settled in.
"Dad, Dad," Gu Yuena said.
"What's wrong?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
"I can't change my clothes, I need to change my clothes," Gu Yuena said.
"Um... okay, promise me you'll turn your back and raise your hands without moving," Wu Yang Jin said.
To be honest, I was completely dumbfounded when I heard this request.
However, if Gu Yuena says she won't, then she probably won't, right?
As she spoke, Wu Yang Jin blushed, but Gu Yuena didn't mind at all, and changed her clothes for quite a while.
"Dad, you're blushing!" Gu Yuena said.
"You naughty girl, I'll hit you if you keep doing that," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Hehe," Gu Yuena said.
After settling in, Wu Yang Jin considered the current situation.
Then, he turned on the Soul Guide TV screen, because he was sure he could see information about Shrek City from there.
However, just as he expected, seeing the news on television did not prevent him from looking displeased.
"Major crisis! Major crisis! Shrek City has suddenly encountered an unprecedented catastrophe! The Federation bears an unshirkable responsibility for this! It has recently been announced that the Federation Council has been dissolved and new elections will be held at a later date!"
"This is simply unacceptable. The preliminary estimate of the death toll in Shrek City exceeds five million, with approximately one million injured. Even with prior precautions and the fortunate rescue of many people, the casualties are still devastating!"
"Urgent report! The city is now only one-third of its original size, and the losses are still incalculable. Shrek Academy has been completely destroyed, and the only remaining Golden Ancient Tree has also vanished without a trace. The waters of Sea God Lake are no longer intact."
"It's an emergency! All personnel at the Tang Sect headquarters have been evacuated, but the headquarters is in ruins. Furthermore, according to eyewitnesses and satellite images, it's unclear who intervened, thus saving Shrek Academy, all its powerful members, and Yun Ming, the Sea God Pavilion Master. Our ancestor was truly unique, single-handedly blocking all the Godslayer Cannonballs and doing everything in his power to save most of the lives in Shrek City."
"Breaking News! The Federation military has established an investigation team to investigate the theft and use of three God-Slaying Fixed-Installed Soul Guidance Cannon Shell by the Holy Spirit Cult!"
"Furthermore, the Army Commander-in-Chief stated that he would spare no effort to find the perpetrator. This kind of inhuman tragedy is unprecedented in the history of the mainland, and the military deeply mourns the victims."
"Currently, across mainland China, Shrek Academy graduates are holding mourning events to deeply commemorate the victims of the Shrek Tragedy."
"Information has been leaked! The Tang Sect has officially declared war on the Holy Spirit Cult! Furthermore, according to insiders, while the Tang Sect suffered relatively few casualties, their losses were still quite severe."
"News report! The Tang Sect headquarters has been destroyed. Although no hall masters have perished, the Hall Master of the Tang Sect's Douluo Hall is currently missing. Our reporters are currently following up on the latest news."
"Furthermore, the Holy Spirit Cult has claimed responsibility for this terrorist attack. However, there has been no trace of them so far. Therefore, this station urges all members of the public to immediately report any suspicious persons to the local government office."
"Rumors are circulating that three missiles have already gone missing, and there's a good chance of a fourth! If that's true, then which city will be the next to be attacked by God-Slaying Fixed-Installed Soul Guidance Cannon Shell? What exactly is the Federal Government doing?!"
"Breaking news: Shrek Academy, as previously reported, has been completely destroyed, and the whereabouts of its key students, many teachers, and powerful individuals are still unknown."
After reading these news reports, Wu Yang Jin was not entirely surprised, since the outcome was expected.
However, what I didn't expect was that, although I don't know who stopped me, it must have been me.
After all, he lost his memory after rushing back and his whole body started glowing.
Therefore, the period of time that I don't remember must be something I stopped myself from doing.
However, on the other hand, could a single Holy Spirit Cult carry out such a terrorist attack?
"No, that can't be right. If it were that easy, the Holy Spirit Cult would have already dominated the world. Besides, if it were really that simple, would the military be incompetent? Moreover, this is Soul Guidance Cannon Shell of Godslayer level. It's absolutely impossible for it to be stolen so easily," Wu Yang Jin thought.
"Dad, are you alright?" Gu Yuena asked with some concern as she looked at Wu Yang Jin's furrowed brows.
"It's nothing, Dad... I was just thinking that the place where you used to live seems to be gone," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Don't be sad, Daddy, I'll stay with you," Gu Yuena said.
"Okay, don't worry about me. Dad might need to make a phone call, so you can wait here for a bit," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Yes, I'll wait for Dad," Gu Yuena said.
Then, Wu Yang Jin walked to the side and took out his Soul Guidance Communicator.
Fortunately, I had put the communicator into the ring at that time, otherwise it would have been unusable.
He looked at the name in his contacts and then dialed Tang Wu Lin's number.
However, this Soul Guidance Communicator is not the original one; it is actually a backup.
Beep beep beep!
Meanwhile, on the other side, Tang Wu Lin was with the others.
"Hmm? Who could it be at this time?" Tang Wu Lin wondered.
"Wulin, is this an unknown number?" Wu Yutang asked.
"Hmm, and at this time, will there be any unknown calls?" Tang Wu Lin asked.
As he spoke, Tang Wu Lin hesitated for a moment, but still dialed the number.
"Hey, Wulin, it's me," Wu Yang Jin said.
However, there was no sound at all on the other end; not a sound could be heard.
"Huh? Why is there no sound?" Wu Yang Jin said.
"Ahem, hello... hello! Wulin, it's me, it really is me," Wu Yang Jin continued.
"Hey, really?"
"Wow! Yang Jin! It's you! Boss!"
At this moment, the call should have gone to Tang Wu Lin, but instead, Xie Xie's cries came through.
"Huh? Xie Xie? Is that you? You startled me," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Yes, it's me. Yang Jin, wait a moment, let Wulin answer it," Xie Xie said.
As he spoke, Tang Wu Lin took the phone back and then paused.
"Yang Jin, is it really you?" Tang Wu Lin asked.
"Yes, it really is me, I... I'm not dead," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Mmm, mmm... Yang Jin! Oh! Ah, it's really, really good!" At this moment, Tang Wu Lin could no longer hold back, responded with a cry and burst into tears as he spoke.
"Wulin, I miss you all too. Let's calm down first," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Yes, I know. Then, Yang Jin, where are you? How are you now?"
Then, after much effort, Tang Wu Lin composed himself and asked again.
"Well, don't worry, everyone, I'm still alive and fine. As for... well, Gu Yue saved me. I'm resting somewhere now. How are you all?" Wu Yang Jin asked.
Then, this time it was someone else's turn to speak, because so many people missed it.
"Sixth Brother! Is it really you?" Dai Yun'er asked, taking the phone.
"Hmm? Yun'er, don't cry, it really is me, your Sixth Brother," Wu Yang Jin said.
"Waaah! Sixth Brother, thank goodness, you're alright!" Dai Yun'er cried.
"Yes, yes, we are all fine. I'm with Dragon Brother, Sister Mi'er, and everyone from Shrek. And, Sixth Brother, your teachers and Grandmaster are all in safe places," Dai Yun'er said.
"Yes, thank you for telling me, Yun'er. But as long as you are all safe, that's all that matters. Now, you wait here and tell us where you are, and I'll be there the next day," Wu Yang Jin said.
