Who let him join the Sword Sect?!-Chapter 507 - 307: Then let me ask you, why is your tail so short?_3
At this moment.
The besieged Xiao family members formed a battle array with the carriages.
Although every guard in the convoy was wounded, not one surrendered; all stood ready with swords and knives.
There were not many cultivators among them, only a few, and they were all warlocks mainly focused on artifact refining.
Encountering the Chong Sect’s body refiners at a low tier, they indeed had no choice but to endure being beaten.
Being captured by Chong Sanchun and his disciples was to be expected.
Yet among them, one person seemed entirely different.
The young man’s eyes were calm; though he appeared gentle, there was a hint of arrogance.
He stood at the forefront of his family, with a long sword embedded in the ground beside him, standing with hands behind his back.
As if waiting for someone.
Chong Sanchun grew increasingly annoyed at this pretty boy and murmured to himself why his elder brother hadn’t arrived yet. He glanced around and saw many townsfolk gathered at the city gate, so he said to a disciple.
"Tell the villagers to go back, lest these Southern Chen dogs, when desperate, cause trouble."
He did not avoid speaking to the Southern Chen Xiao family people.
The Xiao family members, though angry, were all held back by the young man.
Seeing his provocation fail, Chong Sanchun stopped seeking his own humiliation.
...
Miemie, mingled within the crowd, looked past Chong Sanchun’s shiny bald head toward the Xiao family’s young man outside the city.
"I’ve waited so long, the ’Emperor’ finally makes his appearance..."
Miemie had entered and exited this area many times before, trying various methods, but the ’Emperor’ had never appeared.
And now, the story was finally beginning.
Not only had the story begun, but the illusion realm also seemed to undergo unprecedented changes.
While thinking about these matters, Miemie noticed a disciple from the Chong Sect approaching to drive away the onlookers.
She didn’t wait to be driven away and slipped out of the crowd first, ducking into a small alley.
She took out her precious genealogy, turned it into a notebook, and began taking notes.
But as she wrote, her pen stopped, for she thought of Bai Tao.
"Time has changed, the story begins, and I have to stay in this illusion realm for a long time. What should I do about Little Bai Tao on that side?
"Should I leave first... that’s not possible, leaving might mean I can’t get back in.
"Forget it, the main business is important, at worst I’ll run away after things are finished.
"Strange how, among Bai Xiaosheng’s descendants, such a tail-like kid could still emerge..."
Though not near the city gate, Miemie had a way to ’see clearly’ the situation over there.
...
Outside the illusion realm, three days had passed.
This time, for some unknown reason, the illusion realm’s internal time was unusually chaotic compared to the outside world, sometimes fast, sometimes slow.
Upon discovering the anomaly, the Jade Book Tower halted anyone else from entering to ensure Zhang Ze’s safety and eliminate unnecessary variables.
Of course, the outward explanation was that the Jade Book Tower was undergoing a version upgrade.
After the upgrade, every cultivator who had previously spent money at the Jade Book Tower would be given a free experience opportunity.
In any case, it smoothed over the situation temporarily without causing unnecessary panic or a trust crisis.
Now, within the Jade Book Illusion Realm, there were only Zhang Ze, Li Guanqi, Little Earth Immortal, and Miemie.
Except for Chen Qin and Li, who insisted on camping out on the fifty-first floor waiting for Zhang Ze to come out, everyone else temporarily left the Jade Book Tower.
They started preparing various follow-up measures to prevent any sudden accidents.
In Thousand Mechanism Town.
Bai Tao hid her tail and strolled around the town with hands behind her back, pondering about Gray Miemie.
Though she often spent long times in the illusion realm before.
This was the first time it was so lengthy.
And strangely enough.
She always felt something odd about Miemie.
Even though she was very sure Miemie was her childhood playmate, she couldn’t quite remember what they specifically played...
As she was pondering and strolling, she bumped into Li Yueqi head-on.
"Sister Qi," Bai Tao greeted her.
Bai Tao and Li Yueqi were very familiar with each other and had a good relationship because Li Yueqi was one of the few who didn’t play seniority jokes with her.
Moreover, Bai Tao could consider herself a sister around her.
It was truly rare.
"Good morning, Bai Tao. Oh, do you want to come along?" Li Yueqi invited after recognizing Bai Tao.
"Where to?" Bai Tao asked.
"To Fuji’s place. She said she’s come up with some new gadgets related to Zhang Ze. She’s invited me to take a look. Would you like to join?" Li Yueqi replied.
Bai Tao thought for a moment, realized she had nothing to do, and nodded in agreement.
However, not long after, she witnessed a sight she would never forget in her life.
She really needed a pair of eyes that hadn’t seen that scene.
...
Meanwhile, within the illusion realm.
Zhang Ze also saw something both familiar and wondrous.
He looked at the young man with the surname Xiao in front of him, "You want to give me this?"
The young man with the surname Xiao smiled silently in response.
