Chapter 807
It was the year that he disappeared from the Xiu family.
It was also the year that Xiu Yu left the Xiu family with a broken heart.
That year, she was just under 15 years old.
Having lost her mother, she had also lost her father.
“Something is wrong with the trigrams.” Ying Ziji’s fingers tightened as she held the booklet, “This kind of trigram was originally strange, I always feared something was wrong, no wonder I’ve done the calculations a few more times since I entered the city, and it’s always the same result.”
Several times the trigrams had proved that Xiu Shaoning’s life was not in danger, but everything else was unknown.
In short, the trigrams were a blank.
It was the same as the three blank tarot cards when she was counting Norton at Norton University.
A blank, representing that Sage Justice was no longer in this world.
If Xiu Shaoning was just an ordinary person, then the trigram she had calculated back then would have been accurate.
But Xiu Shaoning was the reincarnation of Sage Justice.
When her strength was not restored, she could not calculate big things like the life and death of other sages.
Most importantly, Xiu said he hadn’t seen Sage Justice or Sage Power since the late nineteenth century.
And the starting point of the hunt for the reincarnation of the sages by Shakyam and the others happened to be 1848.
Everything matched up.
It seems that it wasn’t because of how valuable the experiments for the island’s experimental research were in the first place.
Rather, it was because within that group of researchers, there were reincarnations of the Sage’s power.
“You and Justice have worked together before?” Fu Yunshen stroked her head, “How was he?”
Ying knew he was asking about the time they set up the nok forum together, her eyes closed, “Same as his title, a very righteous man.”
She lowered her head, “If only I could have stayed longer back then.”
It was clear that the Shaking Light and the Tower had taken advantage of the Sage Justice and the Sage Power to start on them after one of their reincarnations in response to a disaster.
Fu Yun Shen’s eyes deepened slightly: “Yao Yao, it’s not your fault, don’t impose such things on yourself.”
Ying Ziji leaned back against his broad, strong back and looked up at the sky.
The morning light was breaking, and a flash of white had appeared at the edge of the sky.
Daylight was approaching.
The sun rises and there is light again.
Ying Ziji looks at the first star that appears and her eyes are slightly dim.
After a long silence, she spoke softly: “I was just wondering how I should tell Little Yu this news.”
“Don’t tell her yet.” Fu Yunshen spoke, “The City of Worlds is too chaotic, she will be impulsive, we can’t lose anyone else.”
As early as the moment he became a Sage, he knew that he would inevitably die sometime in the future because he should die of a disaster.
That is how the Sage Fool and the Sage Temperance left.
But Sage Justice and Sage Power died at the hands of one of their own.
How ironic.
“You’re right, we can’t talk about it yet, there’s a page behind it.” Ying Ziji rubbed his temples and breathed slowly, “Read on.”
On the last page were four big words –
The Sage Emperor.
Ying Ziji’s eyes narrowed slightly, “They hunted the reincarnation of the Sage Emperor very early.”
It started in the twelfth century.
This page was all o continent names.
And every single name was a famous emperor in the history of o-continent.
But in the last column, there is no information filled in.
The last reincarnation of the Sage Emperor, the black skeleton, had not yet been found.
“Luckily, the emperor is still alive.” Ying Zigui wrinkled his brows slightly, “But I can’t work out where he is either.”
“Don’t worry.” Fu Yun Shen was faint, “All three of them have been nullified by me, they won’t even be able to move for a short time.”
“As soon as you recover, you will be able to count where the Emperor is.”
Every door in the City of Worlds was guarded by people he had sent over there.
“Good, there’s one more problem.” Ying gave him a look up and down, “How did you escape from the Tower and the Inverted Man, who had joined forces and nullified them, and you are still unharmed?”
He had been all over the place when she had been forcibly sent out by him.
Fu Yunshen didn’t spill the beans on how the Tower had put his shoulder blade through, he smiled and downplayed it, “Accidentally turned sage.”
“Accidentally?” Ying Zigui wrapped his arms around him and raised his eyebrows, “devil, telling lies with your eyes open is not a good thing.”
The familiar name, the familiar tone of voice, suddenly pulled him back many years ago.
The girl looked at him with eyes that could see into people’s hearts, “devil, you lied.”
“How did you guess that at once?” Fu Yun Shen lowered his head and hugged her, “You couldn’t count on me, could you?”
“It’s a simple thing.” Ying glanced at him, “With Miss Power and Mr Justice gone, and Norton he’s in the Leingold family, I don’t think he’ll leave.”
“Then who else among the twenty-two Magi would you say could stand up to the two of them combined?”
“OK.” Fu Yunshen conceded defeat, his voice containing a smile, “Miss Ying, make a deal, don’t hit your face.”
“Don’t call me Miss Ying.” Ying Ziji slapped his hand away, her eyes cool, “It sounds like flirting, and I’m still angry.”
She found that no matter what title came out of his mouth, it became immodest.
“Good.” Fu Yunshen took it in stride, “Little friend, girlfriend, fiancée, which one do you prefer?”
“……”
Ying Zidian turned around and left.
Fu Yunshen held her hand from behind: “Are you really angry?”
“No, I have to go to O Chau first.” Ying Zidian’s eyes stared, “I’m still a bit uneasy, let’s settle down my teacher first.”
“Well, go.” Fu Yunshen didn’t say anything, “I’ll see you off.”

o Continent, Helvin Experimental Base.
Li Xini had been safely delivered by Dean Norman.
The newest addition to the space carrier experimental program was a welcome addition to Helven.
Dean Norman had also woken up, his head still a little confused.
He was not at all sure how he had got out of the city and how he had got here.
But when he saw the sophisticated mechanical instruments, he put everything else behind him.
Dean Norman had never left the City of Worlds in his life and was not sure what level of technology had been reached outside the city.
Seeing it now, he could not help but exclaim in awe, “Not bad, too good!”
No wonder Ying Ziyi had mentioned Helvin to him many times, saying that Helvin’s ability was definitely no less than Simon Brand’s back then.
“Dean Norman.” Helvin pushed up his gla*ses, “You also think physics is beautiful, right?”
“Yes, that’s right!” Dean Norman cut in, “Physics is the most absolutely wonderful thing in the world! When things don’t work out, quantum mechanics! What’s a problem that physics can’t solve?”
He had a proud look on his face that said “Physics is the best”.
Helvin’s eyes lit up as if he had found his soulmate: “It’s a pleasure to meet you, Mr Norman, you’re my soulmate.”
With that, he sighed again, “Alas, last time I met a young girl from the same place as you, she was very good at physics, but she actually ended up saying she hated physics the most, but it broke my heart.”
Dean Norman: “……”
How come it sounds like something his eldest apprentice would say?
Ying Zidian, who has just arrived at the lab site: “……”
She doesn’t want to go in anymore.
**
On the other hand, the Sage’s House.
Sara had been scared all night, afraid that the sage demons would just come straight into the sage house.
Until the sun came up and a new day dawned.
Because the tower had been destroyed by Fu Yunshen, his special powers could not be used, and the sky of the World City was restored to its original state.
All this made Sara very anxious.
She found that more and more things were beyond her control.
“Where’s the tower? Where is the shaking light?” Sara’s brow furrowed, “Why have they both disappeared?”
The magician was also puzzled.
The tower had come to him only last night, saying it was going to kill someone.
But the Tower and Shaking Light and Day Speech had always come and gone without a trace too, disappearing for a while now and then.
He didn’t take this matter to heart either, and just responded casually, “There might be something going on, what do you care about them.”
He was only responsible for refining pills, nothing else was under his control.
“You mean I can’t care about them?!” Sara instantly exploded in anger and screamed, “So anyone can disobey me and humiliate me?!”
The magician was taken aback, “I didn’t mean that, what are you getting so worked up about?”
Nuts.
The magician just wanted to get out of here and go back to making medicine.
He didn’t have time to spend with Sara here.
“Report…” At this moment, the steward hurried in, “Lord Queen, the head of the Jade Family has submitted another application to leave the city.
“The Grand Master of the Jade Family.” A grim smile crossed Sara’s lips, “You want to leave the city, don’t you? Very well, bring it up.”
To get out of the city, there was a price to pay.
Abolition of force and erasure of memory.
Chapter 808
Anyone who wishes to leave the city must have their memories a*sociated with the City of Worlds erased.
This one rule has kept many people from thinking about leaving the city.
The human brain is so sophisticated that even with the advent of something like a memory eraser, there is no guarantee that it will be useless.
No one dared to take the risk.
Not to mention that outside the city, technology is hundreds of years behind compared to inside the city, so not many people want to go outside.
Unless one prefers to watch through-the-city dramas.
This is the first application to leave the city since the 20th century.
Not to mention that the Jade family’s status in the City of Worlds is extraordinary.
To leave the city, a member of the Jade Family’s clan would have to have his or her entire force scrapped.
With their arms and legs broken, they would be an invalid and would probably have difficulty walking in the future.
Yu Shaoyun, really had the guts to do this.
“Just in time to run into the gun, not bad.” Sara blandly, “I kinda want to ask him how he educates his offspring and what kind of offspring he has raised?”
“A big family head, doing such a dereliction of duty, should be scrapped!”
The steward knelt on the ground, not even daring to breathe.
And hearing these words, the magician who had walked to the door stopped again and turned back, “Sara, if you want to follow the rules, hand him over to me, I have two new medicines that will be ready soon and I need someone to try them out.”
“You?” Sara frowned, also realising that she had lost her temper earlier.
To ease relations, she nodded in response, “Fine, I’ll leave this to you, what new drugs do you have?”
“The properties are unknown at the moment.” The magician said, “It’s much stronger than the original s-23 anyway.”
And Sara didn’t ask any more questions.
To rule the City of Worlds, it was not enough to be benevolent; an iron hand was also necessary.
“On my orders, go to the Jade Family and bring Yushaoyun to my exclusive lab.” The magician walked out, beckoned a squad of knights and waved his hand, “He can leave the city without having his memories and force abolished as long as he can resist my new medicine.”
Hearing these words, the group of knights looked at each other for a moment, with a struggle in their eyes.
But still they answered, “Yes, Lord Magician.”
After giving his orders, the magician returned to his laboratory to prepare the final step of refining the new medicine.
When the medicine experiment was finished, he could hand it over to Shaking Light.
On this side of the hall, the steward was about to exit when Sara called out again.
“By the way, pa*s on my order that the grand ceremony is to be held earlier.” Sara suddenly looked up, “The time, from the 31st of December, is moved to the 1st of December.”
The Sage Demon was so strong that the astrolabe left behind by the Wheel of Fate could not even determine who he was and where he was.
December 1.
The day when the Holy War broke out, dozens of centuries ago.
Taking this date, she also had to warn devil.
The steward was surprised, but did not ask: “Yes, my queen, this will be your intention, published on the w network.”
There was one more thing that he had not dared to report.
There were already quite a few residents on the w-net who were unhappy with the Sage Queen, and the number was still growing.
The hearts of the people, too, were gradually being lost.
**
At this time, o continent.
“Ying, you guys came at night, you didn’t even sleep, and you’re leaving?” Helwyn was a little upset, “There’s still some progress that I haven’t shown you yet.”
“Professor, there are people waiting for me, I have to leave.” Ying shook his hand and nodded slightly, “My teacher is very knowledgeable and erudite, you can just discuss it with him.”
“Definitely, definitely, to be your teacher, Ying, that must be very impressive.” Helvin said repeatedly, “Before I was thinking that even within a hundred years the space carrier would not be invented, I would have to rely on future generations.”
“Now with Mr. Norman around, I can guarantee that within ten years, mankind will definitely be able to explore the whole universe and discover a new civilization!”
Ying Zidian smiled, “I believe that day will come soon.”
Helvin sent Ying Zidian and Fu Yunshen out and suddenly tapped his head, “Hey, I forgot, Xiao Zuo told me yesterday that he was coming to the base and would arrive this afternoon.
Dean Norman was eating his noodles, and when he heard this, he asked vaguely, “Who’s Xiao Zuo?”
“A young physics professor at Imperial University, Zuo Li.” Helvin explained, “He’s been asking me every week if I’ve abducted Ying so that they can’t find anyone at Tidu University and he’s so worried that his hair is falling out.”
Dean Norman was choked up and pondered, “My apprentice is so sought after?”
Good thing he’s good enough!
“That is.” Helwyn sighed, “Being invited by the world’s leading universities, you see, just she has a fan group on the international forum, in which nothing else is spoken about every day but academics.”
A real breath of fresh air.
Dean Norman’s eyes lit up: “Come on, let me add you, we’ll be group mates from now on.”
The two of them chatted for a while more about Ying Zidian, and Helvin sighed: “Unfortunately, it’s a pity that there’s still too little manpower, and the other scientists are still very unimpressed with the project.”
“Helvin, don’t be afraid of the lack of manpower.” Dean Norman patted him vigorously on the shoulder, “I have another apprentice, she’s been obsessed with little dresses lately, I’ll abduct her for you after a while.”
Hervin: “????”
**
Noon.
Ying Ziji and Fu Yunshen returned to the City of Worlds.
She looked up at the bright sky and raised an eyebrow: “It seems that Mr. D has really scrapped the tower and the weather has returned to normal.”
Fu Yunshen took a step, “What did you call me?”
“You call me Miss Ying, I’ll call you Mr. d.” Ying Ziji put her hands in her pockets and yawned, lazily, “Courtesy, Mr. devil has to pronounce it a few more times, trouble.”
Fu Yunshen’s eyelashes drooped and his lips curved up, “That’s fine.”
It was her.
“By the way, there’s one more thing.” Ying turned his head, “After living in d first for so long, there’s no one you’ve liked before?”
“Hm?” Fu Yunshen looked at her and curled his lips, “Jealous?”
Ying Ziyi glanced at him, “Not really.”
“I’ve only ever had my heart set on you, I’ve only ever planned and planned how to get you into my hands.” Fu Yunshen pinched her face, “As for before, I was a ten thousand year old single dog, you must have pity on me.”
“……”
The two proceeded to walk and had just entered the domain of the Lehngar family.
“Big brother! I’ve waited for you!” The fifth young master hurried over, looking anxious, “Big brother, something’s happened! Eldest Uncle has just been taken away by the Sage’s Court.”
Fu Yunshen raised his eyes, his expression cold: “The Queen? Just her?”
“Not the empress!” The fifth young master blurted out, “It’s the magician! I overheard that he’s going to use the latest medicine to take away Uncle’s power and erase his memory.”
The Magician had certainly done a lot for the City of Worlds, advancing medicine.
But the medicines he had refined in the later stages were one more insidious than the other.
Fu Yunshen nodded slowly: “Magician, or is he easy to beat into direct reincarnation.”
The fifth young master froze: “Great big brother?”
He was a little unclear on what that meant.
“Yoyo, you watch him, and the rest of the Jade Family.” Fu Yun Shen stroked her head again, his voice gentle, “I’ll go to the Sage House to bring someone out, and if we’re quick, we can still have a barbecue together tonight.”
“Is that a promise?”
“It’s a promise.”
“Good.” Ying Ziji rolled up her sleeves, “Bring the magician too, I’ll try the medicine on him too, I wonder what’s so special about trying it on a sage.”
She wanted to have some fun.
Fu Yunshen was responsive to her requests, “Good.”
“No, no, no, big brother, I can’t let you go alone.” The fifth young master was anxious, “Old Fifth I’m thick-skinned and thick-skinned, I’ll be a wall in front of you, that’s the Sage’s Court!”
When it comes to the House of Magi, who in the City of Worlds doesn’t fear it?
Ying Zidian gave him a very faint look and slowly tore open the candy paper of a lollipop: “Want to go? Beat me?”
The fifth young master was so cowed that the tiger instantly became a kitten: “Sister-in-law, I don’t dare.”
As soon as he said that, he was kicked in the body.
Fu Yunshen looked pale: “Don’t pander to your sister-in-law.”
This was his patent.
Fu Yunshen turned around and was just about to leave.
A voice sounded behind him.
“Yun Shen, come along.” Yu Xue Sheng raised her hand, holding it on his shoulder, and smiled lightly, “Don’t forget us.”
“Yeah, go together.” Qin Lingyu followed over, “I heard that you don’t have to worry about anything when you go on a mission with devil.”
Xiu pointed at himself, “Me, I’m going too?”
He had only learnt last night that his big brother’s boyfriend was a sage demon, and he still hadn’t recovered!
Ling Mianxi kicked him, “Nonsense.”
Xiu looked at the girl and swallowed all his words, looking serious: “Yes, I’m going too!”
Fu Yunshen turned his head.
The few sages who had once been hostile were all standing behind him.
There was no need to say anything, everything was already clear in the mind.
This time, you are not alone.
You have us, a thousand horses and a thousand armies.
