Bathed in the morning glow, Nandu City seemed tinged with a sacred hue, and the entire city had become holy.
The day had only just broken, and the streets should have been nearly empty, yet they were now packed with traffic and pedestrians.
Street after street was jammed so tightly that not even water could pass through.
Nandu City's New Era Aerial Mobile Combat Fortress floated above the city, lowering thick vines to serve as roadways for vehicles and pedestrians to enter.
"I remember the Central Committee's document required the entire evacuation to be completed by midnight tonight. Can it be done at this rate?" Jiang Chuan frowned slightly.
"Right now, my dad and the City Lord are probably still discussing who will stay behind in Nandu City."
Song Zhiyan looked toward the City Lord's Mansion. "Once they finish the meeting, with cultivator methods, it won't take more than an hour to evacuate everyone and move them into the Cave Heaven World."
Jiang Chuan nodded, bid farewell to Meng Nanxi and the others, and returned home.

"Mom, where's Dad?" Jiang Chuan asked as he landed beside Ji Min.
"Xiaochuan, you're back. Your dad hasn't returned yet."
Ji Min answered, "He said he'd come back after the meeting. I figure he should be back soon. Have you eaten?"
"No."
After thinking it over, Jiang Chuan told a lie against his heart.
"Then Mom will make something for you."
Ji Min entered the pet store, went up to the second floor, and began cooking.
Perhaps worried that the ice-and-snow ingredients would spoil, Ji Min made an especially lavish breakfast. She not only cooked seafood congee, but also steamed pork with rice flour
