"Grandpa, we'll be seeing the support troops soon. Don't worry, these are all your loyal followers, none of them are the head of the family," said Kamiyo Yun Cang, panting.

He controlled Aobōzu carry Shen Daichihachi on his back and speed across the snowfield.

On the snow-covered plains where snow was falling heavily, the young people looked somewhat flustered.

Kamiyo Yun Cang is a rare genius in the Kamishiro Family. He entered the A-level at the age of 24, and now at the age of 30, he is expected by many to enter the demigod realm.

He might be a little less capable than the Kamishiro Yunsugi who fell to Li Yunjing, but he is already one of the best among the younger generation.

Originally, he was the executor in the Kamishiro Corporation's plan to capture Qing Chen.

Because his daughter in City No. 23 was infected with a neurovirus, he had no choice but to rush home, and Kamiyo Yunhe took over command.

This time, when Kamiyo Yun Cang accompanied Shen Daichihachi to kill Li Shutong, what surprised him the most was that the demigod of the Chen family who was the same age as him was so strong!

During the battle, the ancestor used Tamamo-no-Mae to directly confront Zhong Kui and the Divine Deer...

At that moment, Kamiyo Yun Cang almost thought that his grandfather had won. As long as Tamamo-no-Mae could hold out until his grandfather recalled the four shikigami and Hannya and Kyokotsu returned to help, then this new generation of demigod of the Chen family would surely die!

In terms of the ability to kill demigods, the Onmyoji of the Age of Gods was the strongest in many past eras.

Simply because they outnumbered and were well-suited for encirclement and pursuit.

However, what Kamiyo Yun Cang did not expect was...

Chen Yu saw that Zhong Kui and the Divine Deer were restrained by Tamamo-no-Mae, and only let out a soft "Eh," before unfurling ten Painting Scroll from the bamboo basket...

In an instant, ten Bodhisattvas emerged wielding their treasures, blocking all of Shen Daichihachi's shikigami and severely injuring the Kamishiro family patriarch, leaving him on the verge of death.

Zard, who was present at the time, felt like Sun Wukong, who had suddenly arrived at the Great Thunder Temple with his master, Tang Sanzang...

Then, Chen Yu glanced at Zard and was so frightened that he grabbed Huan Yu and ran away.

Kamiyo Yun Cang thought that even if the ancestor was at his peak, he would probably have some difficulty facing Chen Yu at this moment. You should know that this new generation of demigod of the Chen family is only 30 years old!

Fortunately, the first battle of the five demigods of the Federation ended hastily due to the arrival of the northern fleet of the Age of Gods, and no one was willing to continue to waste time fighting to the death.

Fortunately, the current head of the Shindai family has ambition but lacks the vision and wisdom to match it!

However, just as Kamiyo Yun Cang pondering, someone suddenly shouted angrily from behind Xueyuan: "You dog, prepare to die!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a huge earthen gate suddenly rose up in front of Kamiyo Yun Cang and Shen Daichihachi, towering like a mountain, with the words "Gate of Death" written on it.

"You brat, you've bullied me!" the Shen Daichihachi said weakly, but then Kyokotsu materialized before him and smashed the "Gate of Death" to pieces.

Kamiyo Yun Cang didn't linger; he didn't need to get entangled with a lunatic!

Zard and Huan Yu stood not far away, watching silently.

Zard laughed, "Haha, how embarrassing, how can he summon shikigami?"

Huan Yu said expressionlessly, "This is what you told me about, coming to intercept and kill that old turtle from the God Era? Your earthen wall is way too flimsy. You think you can kill a demigod when you're this weak?"

Zard was also unhappy. "He was the one who smashed down the mud wall, why are you criticizing him instead of me!"

Huan Yu: "..."

He put on his white headphones, zipped up the front of his windbreaker, and turned to walk west.

"Hey boss, where are you going?"

"Go somewhere without you and stay for a few days."

"No! I'll miss you!"

At this moment, the patriarch of the Kamishiro family lay panting on the back of the Aobōzu: "Yun Cang, I have lived a life of great achievements, but now I have come to this end. The patriarch tricked me into coming to kill Li Shutong and prepared a knight's body for me, but I never expected that he would plot against his own people from behind."

Kamiyo Yun Cang's eyes reddened. His ancestor had always been very good to him, guiding him in cultivation and helping him consolidate the family's position. Now that his ancestor had fallen to this state, he felt terrible.

After running for an unknown amount of time, Kamiyo Yun Cang finally spotted the A-Class Airship on the ground. "Grandpa, our backup has arrived!"

Shen Daichihachi remained silent, only her breathing was barely audible, as if she might die at any moment.

From the direction of the airship, thirty-six black-clad assassins saw the two of them and immediately came to greet them.

Shen Daichihachi connected to the bridge, while Kamiyo Yun Cang, in the command center, immediately ordered takeoff and departure.

He had already spotted the Northern Fleet on the radar.

"Commander Yun Cang, the Ancestor summons you," a henchman whispered. "We injected the Ancestor with adrenaline. After he finishes explaining things to you, he will enter the hibernation pod. The Ancestor's condition is very bad; he may leave at any time."

Kamiyo Yun Cang hurriedly walked to the back of the bridge and entered the medical bay, where he saw Shen Daichihachi lying naked on a white hospital bed, with an oxygen mask on her face and various tubes of instruments inserted into her body.

The old man reluctantly removed his oxygen mask. "Yun Cang, come here, I have something to tell you."

As Kamiyo Yun Cang approached, he realized something was wrong the next second. He saw Hannya and Shuten-dōji suddenly appear on either side of him, while Kyōkotsu slashed his carotid artery with a hand chop from behind.

Kamiyo Yun Cang lay on the ground in disbelief, his powerful A-rank physique still retaining a trace of consciousness.

Outside the medical pod, a black-clad assassin pushed in a bed and lifted Kamiyo Yun Cang onto it, skillfully inserting more than a dozen tubes into him.

The next moment, silver liquid was simultaneously injected into the bodies of both Shen Daichihachi and Kamiyo Yun Cang.

Only then Kamiyo Yun Cang suddenly understand why the ancestor had brought him here and why the ancestor had personally guided his cultivation.

It turns out that he was originally a body prepared for him by his ancestors.

The A-Class Airship sped towards the nearest military base, which was controlled by the Onmyoji faction.

After the airship landed, the ground guidance troops watched as Kamiyo Yun Cang, his eyes bloodshot, stepped off the airship, and cried out in grief, "Our ancestor is gone! It was Chen Yu of the Chen family who killed him!"

The young Onmyoji was sincere and earnest.

Following closely behind were the black-clad assassins carrying the body of Shen Daichihachi slowly down the steps. There was no white cloth covering it, and everyone could clearly see Shen Daichihachi's ashen face.

The military base was thrown into turmoil; a demigod had fallen!

The fall of every demigod will cause upheaval throughout the entire Federation!

The dark carriage was quiet.

Li Cheng suddenly asked, "Boss, how long will this darkness last?"

Qing Chen: "3, 2, 1".

In an instant, the black Steam Train suddenly sped out of the void, and the sunlight outside shone into the train windows.

Inside the temperature-controlled carriage, the drifting snow was no longer cold; the soldiers had never imagined that snow could be so beautiful.

Yes, for them over the past 19 years, snow has been cruel, cold, and often accompanied by death.

The soldiers stared in disbelief.

Qing Ling couldn't help but ask, "Boss, how did you know the Steam Train would appear at that time and in that place?"

Qing Chen thought for a moment and said, "There's nothing I can't say. It was the last gift that Li Xiurui, the Head of the Li Clan, gave me before he left."

In the apartment the old man gave him, there was a gold coin and a map.

The map shows the detailed schedules, routes, and stops of the Steam Train, each stop lasting only 10 minutes, a fleeting moment.

Moreover, the Steam Train's route changes every quarter, and each route lasts 27 days.

But finding its patterns isn't difficult for a conglomerate like the Li family; it just depends on whether you want to do it.

The old man only needed to send someone to carry supplies, and take the trip four times a year, each time for a full 27 days, to figure out the route.

The map also details other patterns of the Steam Train, such as its ten-minute journey into the void after leaving the station, during which it can travel more than 200 kilometers, and during this time no one can track it.

Even if a Susanoo were thrown on someone's head while they were sitting in the carriage, nothing would happen to them.

Therefore, many outlaws in the Central Plains region liked to use this Steam Train to deliver goods.

The goods included gene-editing agents, chemicals, organs, trafficked women, and so on.

Of course, there are also all sorts of quirky people who like to ride this train.

The map is so detailed that it's practically a treasure trove.

This map was the source of Qing Chen's confidence in taking more than 900 people with him, and it was also the only way he could take all the soldiers from this place when he planned to take them away from the Outer World.

Of course, there was an element of gambling in it, since he had never ridden Steam Train before, but his gamble was also based on the information Li Xiurui had given him; he believed the old man wouldn't lie to him.

He was also gambling. A ticket for the Steam Train cost one tael of gold, and these nine hundred people were an astronomical number. So Qing Chen was gambling on the pinky ring called "Power." Since it could open all the doors and locks in the world, it could certainly open the Steam Train as well.

Using the Forbidden Item to exploit the Forbidden Item's bug delighted Qing Chen.

However, what the old man gave him was not how to use a Qing Chen Forbidden Item, but rather the old man's own childhood dream.

That one-ounce gold coin was the ticket to "freedom".

This is the most precious gift.

Slowly, sobs began to rise in the carriage. After a long period of confusion and dazedness, the brave soldiers finally realized that they were completely free!

This magical Steam Train will take them back to their hometown and on to embark on a new journey!

Old Li hesitated for a moment before asking, "Boss, what are your plans next?"

Qing Chen smiled and said, "There are no concrete plans yet."

Old Li was somewhat disappointed.

What he was actually asking was: Boss, is there anything else you need from us?

They wanted to follow Qing Chen.

To be honest, after witnessing the Northern Fleet that seemed to be pressing down like a black city, and then witnessing a miracle in an instant, I no longer have any faith in anyone other than Qing Chen.

So when Qing Chen said he had no plans yet, Old Li was a little disappointed, thinking that Qing Chen was suggesting they retire and return to their hometowns.

At this moment, Qing Chen pondered for a moment and said, "Don't rush into work. The most important thing is to make up for what you missed in the past. That way, you can focus on doing things with me without any distractions."

Old Li: "Long live the boss!"

Qing Ling: "Boss is awesome!"

The cheers at this moment were much more serious than those of the knights and messengers; at least there were no words like "mother and child are safe."

Amid cheers, Qing Chen silently got up, walked through the carriages, and reached the end of the carriage.

The last carriage was indeed fully loaded with gold. If you do a quick calculation, one cubic meter of gold would be worth 7.3 billion yuan at a price of 380 yuan per gram. The gold here must be worth hundreds of billions.

As Qing Chen approached the last carriage, the Steam Train trembled, filled with a sense of struggle.

But the boy didn't take the gold out. He just stood at the carriage door and gently tossed in the one that Old Master Li Xiurui had given him.

"If I could have my youth again, with an ounce of gold and an ounce of wind, I would thank you."

That's all for tonight. Two chapters will resume tomorrow.
