The Master and His Wealthy Fiancée

Li Huiran thought for a moment. ”If it’s just about handling the ordinary people, we agree.”

Having received her answer, Cao Su and her two companions left without delay.

As they reached the school gate, Xu Zong spoke with concern. ”Lord Cao, the number of Martial Artists is growing disproportionately, and all these strange events are happening in plain sight of ordinary people. I’m worried about letting the Illusory Sect manage them. What’s more, there are countless Martial Artists we have no records on. If they hide among the civilians with malicious intent, the danger could be immense!”

Cao Su’s face soured. ”What choice do I have? All I have under me is you sorry lot. Things have gotten to this point; we can only do our best to cope. Besides, signs of chaos are appearing all over the world. The peace won’t last much longer for anyone. Who can we blame that it’s starting here in Jiangzhou?”

Tang Xian also looked exhausted as he complained, ”A while ago it was a Flood Dragon, now it’s an earthquake and this giant red lantern in the sky. We’re too busy to keep up!”

Cao Su’s voice turned cold. ”Enough. Pull yourselves together! I’ve received intel that at least ten Outer Appearance realm experts are on their way to Jiangzhou. I’ve already requested backup from the headquarters in Beijing, but planes can’t fly into Jiangzhou right now. They’ll have to travel overland from nearby Lower River City or Yunyazhou. We just have to hold on a little longer.”

But as soon as she said it, she couldn’t help but let out a soft sigh. ”Ordinary people are just so fragile compared to Martial Artists. I just hope things don’t get even more chaotic.”
