Supreme Electromagnetic Tyrant-Chapter 440 - 302: Change of Star Gate
Chapter 440: Chapter 302: Change of Star Gate
More than twenty kilometers outside Olympia, Ji Xinghuo landed in a deserted forest before making his way to the main road.
After walking briskly for a while, he entered the city from the west gate.
Looking at the bustling Mutants on the streets, who were all from Earth, he felt as though he was from another era. Having encountered only the Alien Race for over a year on the Bloody Plateau, seeing so many of his own kind gave him a warm sense of familiarity.
Qing Hong also poked its head out of the pocket, its small eyes filled with curiosity.
This was the city it knew best.
"I’ll get you some tasty food in a bit, don’t rush." Ji Xinghuo smiled, knowing that to Qing Hong, Olympia was synonymous with those few barbecue restaurants; it even remembered their locations.
Arriving in East Xia District, Ji Xinghuo walked on Qinghao Street, with an electromagnetic induction sweeping past.
A look of surprise appeared on his face.
Upon entering the most luxurious villa area on Qinghao Street, he opened the door, and a lithe figure flashed out from the room.
"Lord Xinghuo!"
When Jiangnan Caiyi saw it was Ji Xinghuo, the wariness on her face instantly turned to delight, and she hurriedly put down the katana she was holding, a bit embarrassed.
"Caiyi, it’s been a while." Ji Xinghuo studied her; the last time they were in contact was last year when she had mentioned she was preparing to become a Super Mutant. Apparently, she had succeeded, as her strength had increased significantly.
Jiangnan Caiyi’s face was full of happiness, "Lord Xinghuo, please come in."
The villa’s living room was spotless, indicating she cleaned daily; the garden was also well-maintained. However, she was not a Plant Witch, and many of the plants were not doing well, some even completely withered.
"Caiyi, have you been living here recently?" Ji Xinghuo asked as he sipped some tea.
"Yes." Jiangnan Caiyi nodded gently, "I returned to the Star Realm at the beginning of the year and have been waiting for my sister to come back. Zhonglin has visited a few times, but he only stays for half a day each time and then returns to Earth, asking me to notify him if there’s any news."
Her curious eyes observed Ji Xinghuo, "Lord Xinghuo, did you go to the Bloody Plateau?"
Ji Xinghuo nodded.
He had left a note in the villa before he left last time, informing her of his whereabouts; it was no wonder Jiangnan Caiyi was aware. frёeweɓηovel.coɱ
"Lord Xinghuo, you’re so formidable!" Jiangnan Caiyi was full of admiration, "Your strength has increased so much, it even makes me feel a bit scared."
"Caiyi, your strength has also improved a lot." Ji Xinghuo smiled.
"Yes." Jiangnan Caiyi modestly sat with her legs together, and said, "I’ve been working hard this year. Once my sister comes back, and together with Zhonglin, who is now ranked just over 800 on the Heavenly Ladder, our team will certainly be much more powerful than before and we can go hunting in much more dangerous places."
Ji Xinghuo’s smile faded, "Caiyi, Ren might not come back anytime soon."
"What?"
Jiangnan Caiyi’s pupils dilated, and her complexion instantly turned pale.
"Don’t misunderstand, Ren is fine." Ji Xinghuo quickly said, "I met Ren on the Bloody Plateau, she just received a tremendous opportunity, and her evolution is at a critical phase, so she won’t be able to return to Olympia for the time being."
"I see!" Jiangnan Caiyi breathed a sigh of relief, enviously saying, "Lord Xinghuo, you’re lucky to have encountered my sister!"
I met her, and even went up.
Ji Xinghuo thought to himself.
Unaware of his thoughts, Jiangnan Caiyi continued to inquire, "Did my sister mention how long it might be before she can return?"
"It might be several years, it’s hard to say." Ji Xinghuo replied.
"That long?"
Jiangnan Caiyi looked disheartened, momentarily at a loss.
Unable to bear seeing her so upset, knowing Ren’s importance to her, Ji Xinghuo stated bluntly, "Ren asked me to tell you that our Hunting Team is going to be disbanded."
He placed a bag on the table, "This is something Ren asked me to pass on to you."
"Is that so?" Jiangnan Caiyi staggered, not even glancing at the bag, muttering to herself, "Ultimately, I’m still too useless, unable to keep up with my sister’s pace."
Ji Xinghuo watched her distressed appearance, internally shaking his head.
In his opinion, Jiangnan Caiyi was overly reliant on Ren, a psychological flaw that even affected her independence.
He didn’t know what Ren thought about this.
If it were him, having someone be so dependent on him, like an accessory, would feel more like a burden.
Of course, despite her psychological flaws, Jiangnan Caiyi was a very good person.
"Ren said she’ll continue to help you, and if you want, I can take you to the Bloody Plateau next time to be with her." Ji Xinghuo spoke softly.
"I’m willing!"
Jiangnan Caiyi made her decision without hesitation, her eyes regaining some sparkle, "When will Lord Xinghuo be going to the Bloody Plateau again?"
"Don’t rush to decide so quickly." Ji Xinghuo said, "I need to return to Earth first, it might take a few months, but I’ll notify you then."
"Okay!" Jiangnan Caiyi nodded vigorously.
Only then did she become interested in opening the bag on the table, and upon seeing its contents, her eyes widened in shock, and she couldn’t help covering her mouth.
Ji Xinghuo knew what was in the bag; there were thirty Ether Crystals, some True Dragon Coins, several items suitable for "Demon Refiner" and "Evil Spirit" Mutants, and some cultivation resources that money couldn’t buy.
Tears glistened in Jiangnan Caiyi’s eyes, "My sister has been too good to me..."
"She’s always been thoughtful toward you."
Ji Xinghuo nodded, "This ’Night Demon’ Mutant I accidentally acquired should be very suitable for you to integrate with, so I brought it back for you."
It was actually purchased in Eternal Day City, a Transcendent Species, costing quite a lot of money, but there was no need to tell her the truth.
