Romance of Gods

Chapter 171 Gifts
It's late at night, but Tianwangshanfang City still doesn't look deserted.

The start time of the competition is approaching, and everyone is squeezing out their own talismans, scrambling to purchase items, and arm themselves to the teeth as much as possible to increase their survival rate.

Even high-level performers who usually don't bother to enter the market and just hang out in higher-end auction houses also made an exception and entered the First Heavenly King Mountain to see if they could pick up any leaks.

“Sister-in-law, get me another bottle of beer!”

At the barbecue stall, a curly-haired woman wearing a blue dress was stunning in appearance, but her posture was extremely flamboyant while she was drinking skewers, not caring about her image.

"okay!"

Ye Zi brought two bottles of beer and placed them in front of the woman and Lou Huowang who was opposite them.

The woman smiled innocently, "Thank you, sister-in-law."

"You're welcome, eat slowly, there's still more."

Lou Huowang looked a little cautious, rubbed his hands and said, "Xiao Xi, thank you for this, otherwise I might not be able to go to this competition."

The woman held a sign and waved her hand, "Why are you so polite? If you hadn't helped me, Brother Lou, I probably wouldn't have been able to pass the first performance."

Lou Huowang nodded, and suddenly, Zhang Defu's voice rang in his ears.

Hearing this, his expression changed again and again, and finally he said in surprise, "Okay, I understand. Please invite him over immediately and tell him that I will set up a stall at the same place."

The woman watched the change in his expression and asked curiously: "Brother Lou, what are you so happy about?"

Lou Huowang said excitedly: "Chen Yan, the master I told you about before, is back. He just asked Defu to contact me. With him here, I feel that our competition this time will go much smoother!"

The woman laughed dumbly, "Really or not? Didn't you say that when you first dealt with him, he just participated in the drama for the first time? Brother Lou, do you think too highly of him?"

Lou Huowang shook his head mysteriously, "I'm a good judge of people. Chen Yan is definitely not a thing in the pool, and he is not comparable to ordinary people."

"Oh."

The woman pursed her stick, thoughtfully.

"By the way, Xiaoxi, if you have contacted good people, just tell them, there are three of us here."

"Okay, I just contacted a friend, but he hasn't responded to me yet. I'll just push him away now. There are three of us. After communicating the information, it will be easy to find a suitable person to fill the vacancy."

"Okay, good work."

Lou Huowang was completely relaxed at this moment. As long as Chen Yan was willing to come, a large part of his worries would be solved.

The woman dialed a number and said, "Hey, Zhou Li, didn't you tell me to think about the matter I asked you just now? I've got everyone here now..."

"Huh? What do you mean? You were the one who said you were looking for someone to join our Zhou family. I just made an agreement with the elders of the family, and now you have changed your mind and are treating us like monkeys?"

"Join the Zhou family?" The woman looked surprised. "When did I say I would join the Zhou family? I just invited you to join the team?"

"Okay, okay! Don't say it's useless. Where are you now? If you tricked someone, you have to apologize in person, right?"

The woman suddenly had an ominous premonition, "Tomorrow, I'll treat you to dinner..."

Before she finished speaking, the other person immediately interrupted her, "Stop talking nonsense, aren't you in that barbecue shop? Why are you waiting for tomorrow!"

The woman was stern and hung up the phone immediately, "Brother Lou, please close the stall first and then make an appointment to meet your friend at another place."

"what happened?"

"Don't ask, let's go."

Lou Huowang was naturally cautious, so when he saw the woman's seriousness, he didn't ask any more questions.

Just as he was about to get up and clean up, a group of people rushed out from the crowd and surrounded the barbecue shop.

The leader was wearing a suit and leather shoes, and had a sinister face, indicating that he was not a good person.

……

Inside Mustard Seed, Zhang Defu waved his hand and the entire office building disappeared. The scene turned into a flat grassland, with Fei Xiong standing not far from the two of them.

Zhang Defu bowed deeply, cupped his hands and said, "I see you, Lord Fei Xiong!"

Feixiong waved and smiled, without any pretense, and walked towards the two of them, "You are too polite, Defu."

When Chen Yan saw Fei Xiong, he thought of Wang Juan.

He had just come back and the other party came to visit him. Could it be that Wang Juan's matter was resolved so quickly?
"Congratulations to Chen Yan. Counting your performance in the first two times, you can be said to have passed the Romance three times perfectly. This is really rare among newcomers in the country."

Fei Xiong looked directly at Chen Yan and did not hesitate to praise him.

Chen Yan nodded and said: "Just do your best, God will make it happen."

He just answered in a nonchalant manner. There was a natural sense of distance between a big man like Fei Xiong and him.

After experiencing the battle in London, this feeling became even more obvious.

He cannot predict the layout and planning of people of this level, so keeping a distance is the best way to get along with them.

Feixiong looked at Zhang Defu, "I have something to say to Chen Yan."

"Your Majesty understands."

Zhang Defu turned and left.

Chen Yan said calmly: "What instructions does Master Fei Xiong have?"

Fei Xiong could feel Chen Yan's respectful approach. He smiled and raised his hand, and a decorative object similar to a snow globe appeared in his palm.

But the internal structure of this glass ball is more exquisite, and there is no similarity among the various retro buildings such as residences, factories, and palaces.

And there seemed to be pedestrians walking around in the streets and alleys of the building.

"This is?"

Feixiong said slowly: "This is a gift, someone asked me to give it to you."

The moment Chen Yan took the glass ball in his hand, his body leaned down, and he was almost pulled to the ground by the terrifying weight of the glass ball.

Veins popped up on his forehead, and his Dantian was filled with energy. His arms were trembling, and he could barely hold the glass ball.

"Shen? Because there is a world inside it."

Fei Xiong's words were like cold water poured into a boiling pot of oil, causing Chen Yan's thoughts to explode instantly.

With a thought in his mind, he put the glass ball into his personal space, and the huge pressure that enveloped his body slowly dissipated.

"A world?"

"To be precise, it's a broken world."

The two walked side by side on the grassland, and Feixiong began to explain.

"Wang Juan asked me to give this gift to you before he died."

Wang Juan died and gave himself a world.

An hour ago, the confrontation between me and him was still vivid in my mind.

Although he had expected this result, he still felt as if he was in a fog when he actually heard Fei Xiong tell the news.

"When he was in London, he asked me to fight you in person, and I agreed. Later, he said he would give you this gift, and I agreed."

"It sounds like you don't want Wang Juan to die."

Fei Xiong nodded, "Of course, but he has no way back. He has decided to become an enemy of Chiguo. No one can save him."

Chen Yan looked into the distance of the grassland and saw the green waves rising on the horizon. He recalled what Wang Juan said to him when he said goodbye.

Chen Yan always felt that Wang Juan had a motive. It was not the hatred for killing his wife, but another higher-level emotion, "Maybe..."

"Okay, let's talk about the gift I just gave you."

He was about to talk about Wang Juan, but he didn't know whether it was intentional or not, but Fei Xiong interrupted him, "Wang Juan is the master of the novel world you experienced before, and his changes will have an impact on the world at all times.

He should have told you this before you left, so I won't repeat it.Wang Juan has been trapped in darkness for too long, and almost most of the world has been eroded by its evil energy, turning it into a chaotic and lost place.He also retains a small amount of goodwill, embodied in the Kingdom of Thorns.

All death and suffering born in chaos will become peaceful and free after entering the place of kindness...

Your previous stories have removed some of the remaining hostility in the land of good intentions.Although Wang Juan died, a trace of his kindness remained. "

Chen Yan couldn't hide his surprise, "A trace of kindness...you mean, this glass ball contains the Dynasty of Thorns?"

Feixiong stopped and said solemnly: "Maybe, this world is transformed by Wang Juan's original power. Although the power is small, if you want to enter, you must have the same power. Although I can easily destroy this world, it But you will not open the door to me... The only person who can enter this world is you."

A world only I can enter?
While Chen Yan felt strange, he couldn't help but wonder what Wang Juan's intention was in sending him to this world.

Just as he was thinking about it, Feixiong had quietly left.

Somewhere, there is an unfinished battle waiting for Fei Xiong.

When Chen Yan saw him leaving, he sat down on the floor, took out the glass ball and placed it on the ground.

He pressed his hand on the glass ball, held his breath and concentrated, trying to communicate with the inner world.

But apart from the cold touch, there was no other phenomenon, and it was lifeless.

"Ok?"

The original power... Chen Yan thought about it for a moment, then placed a thin layer of fire energy on his palm and lightly touched the sphere.

Instantly, a burst of fire surged out of the ball, and it suddenly connected with the fire in his palm, and at the same time, a line of text appeared.

[Your current strength is too weak, go practice again!Only after lighting up half of the divinely-ordained maps can you enter! 】

Immediately, the fire in the ball disappeared and became lifeless again.

Chen Yan put away the glass ball, and the tone of what he said just now was more like Wang Juan's tone.

He was suddenly startled and realized a problem.

The chaotic world is Wang Juan, and the world of kindness is certainly Wang Juan.

Could it be that Wang Juan was not completely dead, but that a part of his consciousness remained and coexisted with the broken world in the ball?

But even though he is aware of this problem, Feixiong will definitely not ignore it?
When Zhang Defu saw Fei Xiong leaving, he hurriedly came over and reported back: "Sir, there is news from Lou Zao King. He said that he is setting up a stall in his old place and invites you to meet."

Chen Yan came to his senses and put the glass ball away.

Think about these issues later when you have the strength to enter the small world.

"I know, then contact Cao Chunhua and ask her to meet at Kitchen King's BBQ in Fangshi."

"clear."

Regardless of whether Cao Chunhua's method of making money is true or not, Chen Yan has to go to the market to sell some items and get the ancient blood species.

……

In Tianwangshan City, a cold wind passed through the streets, bringing a chill to the people.

As Chen Yan walked on the deserted street, he felt something strange. Normally, even late at night, there would be no one in the city.

I remembered that before I left Chiguo last time, the city was under martial law and everything was covered with soldiers. It seemed that a lot of things had happened in Chiguo during the more than a month since I left.

He took out the mobile phone Jiang Qian gave him, but it had already lost power and shut down.

Chen Yan first went to the high-end community where Jiang Qian lived. He had less time to come back this time and had many things to do. He didn't know if there would be a chance to meet again in the future.

By the time he arrived quickly, half an hour had passed.

"Stop, stop, stop! It's past twelve o'clock now! Outsiders can't enter the community!"

As soon as Chen Yan came to the gate of the community, a warning sound rang from the security booth.

"I'm here to find someone. Her name is Jiang Qian, and she is a resident of your place."

"It's not possible to find anyone, let's wait until tomorrow."

The security guard's voice was decisive and uncompromising.

Chen Yan looked around. The already towering community wall was now reinforced with a layer of sharp barbed wire, covered with electronic probes.

Then find some more time. He was about to leave when he suddenly felt that someone was watching him from behind.

Chen Yan turned around suddenly, only the fallen leaves rolled gently on the concrete floor, outlining the shape of the wind.

As for the human figures, there were half of them.

At the same time, the sound of the metal fence rubbing against the ground was heard, the community door opened, and the security guard's voice came from the loudspeaker.

"I just called the resident and said you're fine, come in!"

Chen Yan frowned slightly. The security guard had no intention of calling just now.

He entered the community, lay down in front of the window sill of the security booth, and knocked on the window, "Hey, I have something to ask you."

The security guard's voice was full of impatience, "What's wrong?"

"Did you make the call, or did the resident make the call?"

"This...of course it's me. I am serious and responsible, work rigorously, and do everything for the safety of the residents. Is there any problem?"

There was a hint of bravado in the security guard's voice.

Chen Yan was shocked. It seemed that the call was not made by him, but by someone asking him to let him into the community.

Jiang Qian?The gaze that stabbed his back just now felt indescribably familiar.

Strangely, there is a weird atmosphere everywhere in Tianwangshan City today.

boom!boom!
Chen Yan came to Jiang Qian's house and rang the doorbell but no one responded. He started knocking on the door again, but after waiting for several minutes, no one came to open the door.

Have you gone out or fallen asleep?
If it is the above two situations, then who made the call to the security guard just now?

After waiting for a while, Chen Yan saw no movement behind the door and was about to leave. At the same time, the door opened.

"Chen Yan...you are back..."

Jiang Qian opened the door with one hand, wearing pajamas and looking at Chen Yan with an excited but not excited look.

It was like, she already knew the news.

At this time, Jiang Qian rushed over, hugged Chen Yan, and sobbed gently.

Chen Yan put his arm around her waist and looked into the room, "It took you so long to open the door?"

"I just fell asleep."

Jiang Qian let go of Chen Yan, her eyes slightly red.

"Really, but the security guard told me just now that you gave him the phone number, otherwise, he wouldn't let me in."

Jiang Qian smiled helplessly, "Who knows what these people are thinking about every day? After that incident, everyone was in a state of confusion."

"what's up?"

Jiang Qian took Chen Yan's wrist and walked into the room, "Come in, I'll tell you slowly."

When he walked in, Chen Yan noticed the down jacket on the coat rack and quietly reached out to touch it. It was still cold and chilly.

"Did you go out just now?"

"No."

Jiang Qian looked back at Chen Yan in surprise, and at the same time she felt a little sad.

She had been looking forward to this reunion for a long time, but the other party acted as cold as a stranger.
