The Last Rock Emperor - Chapter 357
Chapter 357 Qilin Jade Pendant
Hearing Ji Ruoxue’s words, Fei Na and Yifan were both stunned for a moment and fell into their own thoughts.
“Qilin City!” Fina murmured, as if she remembered Cao Xuefeng, who had knelt on the ground and his eyes shining brightly when she and Yi Fan had saved Eyeglasses’ parents that day.
Her expression was cold as she said, “With Xue’er’s words, I also seem to feel that the chances of this Qilin City being stronger than any other city.”
Hearing their words, Yi Fan was quite surprised. However, he understood in an instant.
Needless to say, Qilin City had Cao Xuefeng’s existence, and he had broken one of his arms. With his personality, he naturally regarded himself as his life and death enemy.
In front of others, Cao Xuefeng might be able to pretend to be his grandson, so he set up a suspicion formation to confuse and disguise himself, but in front of Yifan, this fellow had nowhere to hide.
In fact, after saving Eyeglasses’ parents, Yifan had thought about letting Fei Na find an opportunity to sneak into Qilin City and solve the Cao Clan’s troubles a long time ago.
However, in the end, he gave up on this idea for two main reasons. The first was uncertain whether it was good luck or the will of heaven.
Not long after the Cao Clan had left Shanghai, they had obtained a treasure from an evolver by chance and obtained a top-grade relic item.
This ruin item was incredible. Its ability was even more terrifying. This thing could actually invalidate all abilities within a 200 meter radius.
Simply put, this thing could turn an environment within a radius of 200 meters into an environment that completely rejected dark energy.
This was incredible. One had to know that the special abilities of human evolvers, mutated beasts, and even zombies, all mutated creatures, were essentially the operation and use of dark energy.
In an environment where dark energy was completely rejected, dark energy could not be mobilized, and was completely compressed in the dantian, unable to be used in the slightest.
Even the dark energy in his body was in a dormant state. It could be said that in that environment, there was no difference between an evolver and an ordinary person.
Because the shape of this item was like a jade pendant, and it looked somewhat similar to the Qilin in Chinese fairy tales, it was named the Qilin Pendant by the Cao Clan.
It was said that this was also the reason why the Cao Clan named the city they had built Qilin City, and the Qilin Pendant had become the most precious treasure of Qilin City. Of course, this thing was also the Cao Clan’s amulet.
It was precisely because of the existence of the Qilin Pendant that Yi Fan gave up the idea of letting Fina sneak into the city to assassinate them. After all, in a state where she had completely lost her ability and was in the enemy’s city, it was too dangerous.
On the one hand, this was the reason. On the other hand, Heavenly Rock City was in a period of rapid development. Fei Na, who was in a high position, and the high combat strength evolvers were all too busy to touch the ground.
At that time, Yifan had also considered that there would definitely be a collision with the northern cities in the future. When the time came to clean up, this matter would not be settled. Now, it was time to clean up.
Thinking of this, Yifan said, “Qilin City, there is no need to say anything. Whether they are suspicious or not, and whether they have made a move or not, they should automatically be classified as enemies because of some of the previous grudges.”
“As for Azure Dragon City and Vermillion Bird, because they helped us find our families before, they have a list in hand.”
“Although they were originally allies, the credibility of the so-called allies in this situation is already extremely low. In terms of controlling their families, the two cities are the most suspicious.”
“Of course, we can’t rule out the possibility that the list was accidentally leaked. Apart from Bai Yun, all the cities that the General Clan has built are suspected.”
“As the great generals before the apocalypse, I don’t believe that they don’t have the heart to dominate China and chase after the heroes.”
“All of them. Apart from Baiyun City, which is deficient in innate talent, the other cities have no choice but to be suspicious. They have no choice but to take precautions.”
“As long as there are any suspicious cities, they can be regarded as the imaginary enemies of our Heavenly Rock City. From now on, imagine what we would do if we were the highest leaders of these cities and wanted to destroy Heavenly Rock City.”
“Also, consolidate the flaws that you can think of and make appropriate adjustments in Heavenly Rock City.”
“In addition, those cities that are destined to be hostile, such as Qilin City, will immediately launch a counterattack.”
“For cities like Azure Dragon, White Tiger, Vermillion Bird, and Black Tortoise, we can first ask for directions and secretly test the attitudes of the upper echelons of the city.”
Fina and Ji Ruoxue both sighed when they heard this. Brother Fan’s thoughts had always been so clear and clear.
The three of them were extremely serious as they talked about business. Fina immediately praised, “Good idea. What a good idea.”
“Brother Fan, then I’ll have Chi Ni immediately operate tomorrow and have some fun with them.”
“Speaking of which, do you have any suggestions for Qilin City?”
Yifan smiled indifferently, “You are in full charge of this matter. I only have one small suggestion. If possible, try not to harm innocent civilians.”
Fei Na replied with a faint smile, “Brother Fan, don’t worry, I won’t do more slaughter.”
Sister Ruoxue also sighed and said, “Humans, sometimes it’s really ridiculous. In this extremely weak era.”
“It’s ironic that the first person to be annihilated is actually a tall fellow!”
Hearing this, Yi Fan’s expression couldn’t help but sink. Fina, on the other hand, raised her glass and said, “Hey, reality is so cruel. Why do you want to think so much?”
Then, she scratched her head and asked Yifan, “Just like Brother Fan said, I don’t ask for favors, but I’m worthy of it?”
Hearing this, Yifan picked up his glass and touched Fei Na. He said, “I don’t want it to be as you wish, but I hope it is worthy of my heart.”
Ruoxue also smiled indifferently. She touched her cup and said, “In this apocalyptic world, it is really not easy to be able to hold on to one’s original heart and have a clear conscience!”
“Brother Fan, thank you for letting us meet you!”
‘”Dang…!”
With a light sound, their wine glasses met again. The three of them smiled tacitly. In the apocalypse, the past that they had been immersed in each other was all in silence.
After this glass of wine, the supper was nearing its end. Ji Ruoxue and Fei Na were preparing to take a bath.
In the distance, a flash of blood-red metal shot towards her. Sister Ruoxue raised her eyes and said, “Looks like your brother is going to come for Zhang Liang. It’s unfair!”
Fei Na smiled faintly and said, “Qiangzi’s temperament is really straightforward.”
Yi Fan also smiled faintly and said, “His temper isn’t bad. What do you have to say? It’s quite good. Speaking of which, aren’t you going to take a shower?”
Fina and Sister Ruoxue replied with pale eyes. Then, as if intentionally, they swayed away in a charming manner.
Seeing Yi Fan’s heart itch, he thought to himself, “Let’s see how I’ll deal with you guys when I get back.”
“Chi …!”
The wind howled. Without waiting for Yi Fan to think too much, there was already a person beside Yi Fan. He was a burly, well-defined man with a diamond horn.
The green onions of the past had long since disappeared. After more than half a year of tempering in the apocalypse, there was only maturity and determination left. If the person who came was not Qiangzi, who else could it be?
However, the current him could be said to be grey-haired and dirt-faced, and his clothes were dripping with corpse blood. It was obvious that he had just come down from the battlefield when he immediately rushed over.
Seeing this, Yifan was not surprised at all. Without waiting for Qiangzi to speak, he immediately instructed the maidservant who was still busy by the grill, “Jing Zhe, bring over four sets of utensils.”
“Yes …!” The latter quickly descended.
Only then did Yi Fan begin to greet Qiang Zi, “It’s still like this. Sit down!”
Qiangzi was impatient and immediately said, “Boss, I…”
Yifan immediately waved his hand and interrupted him, “Well, don’t explain. I know why you’re here, but I’m too lazy to explain now.”
Qiangzi was anxious and said excitedly, “Why? Boss, Liangzi will definitely not betray us. I know him, he will definitely not betray Heavenly Rock City!”
“Is there a misunderstanding? Boss, you won’t forget that we are all brothers in the same dormitory! Liangzi, he won’t…”
Just as Qiang Zi finished speaking, Jing Zhe brought over a few sets of utensils. Yi Fan calmly poured Qiang Zi a glass of red wine and said, “Don’t worry, you’re just too impatient. Drink a cup first and we’ll talk about it!”
Qiangzi wanted to speak again, but Yifan raised his hand to him, signaling him to drink first.
When Qiangzi saw this, he immediately raised his glass. A glass of red wine was already in his stomach, and he was about to speak again.
Yifan stopped him again. This time, he didn’t even say a word. He just pointed behind him.
Qiangzi turned his head doubtfully, only to see a silver bolt of lightning speeding towards him.
A flash of light flashed in Qiang Zi’s mind. This time, Qiang Zi understood. Before combining them, Yi Fan instructed the maid to bring three sets of tableware. In addition, Yi Fan was too lazy to explain what he said just now.
It wasn’t that Yifan didn’t say anything about emotions, but he was too lazy to explain them to them one by one.
Thinking of this, Qiangzi was no longer so anxious. Judging from Yi Fan’s appearance and attitude towards them, he was still the same as before. There was no change at all. This allowed him to know that there must be something fishy about this.
Hehe smiled and said, “Haha, boss, there’s still roast meat to eat, I won’t stand on ceremony!”
Yi Fan bitterly smiled and said, “Do you have a time to be polite?”
Qiangzi did not refute. Instead, he smiled honestly and immediately stopped making noise. He sat quietly on the stool and began to eat.
“Kacha …!”
As lightning flashed, glasses appeared on the second floor of the Rock King Pavilion.
He looked at Qiangzi, who had a gray face and was quickly sweeping through the barbecue meat, and then looked at the incomparably calm Yi Fan.
Finally, he looked at the unmoved tableware on the table and immediately nodded to Yifan, “Boss…”
Yi Fan didn’t say anything. He only waved his hand and signaled for him to sit down.
Eyeglasses patted Qiangzi’s broad shoulder and scolded, “Qiangzi, this is not interesting enough. If you have meat to eat, don’t notify your brother!”
Without waiting for the other party to respond, he sat down on the stone bench opposite Yifan, picked up his chopsticks, and joined the barbecue.
