Bab 119: 119.
"I guess this is goodbye." Standing in front of Yang Ze's house, Xia Xueqi sighed with a heavy heart. If possible, she didn't want to go back, but stay here, in this city, alongside this boy in front of her.
"Mmmm..." Yang Ze nodded. "Take care."
These were the words that came from his heart. After his arrival in this world, there weren't that many people that he actually cared about. Though this woman was often unreasonable, she was nevertheless someone he was starting to like. If possible, he didn't want any misfortune to fall upon her.
"Heh... You should think about yourself, not me. I am going back to the academy, while you are going to stay in this city. If there is someone that needs to take care of, it is you." With this, Xia Xueqi took off the bracelet from her wrist and gently put it around Yang Ze's.
"This will keep you safe." With a stiff smiling face, Xia Xueqi tightened her palm that was holding Yang Ze's hand. "Please... Be safe."
"I will." With a nod, Yang Ze thought for a moment before taking a step forward and under the surprised expression of Xia Xueqi, gave her a hug.
As soon as Yang Ze hugged her, Xia Xueqi's body went stiff. Instinctively she wanted to push Yang Ze away, but as soon as her hands came in contact with Yang Ze's body, instead of pushing, they went around his waist. Instead of pushing him back, Xia Xueqi hugged him even more tightly.
Resting her chin on his shoulder, she closed her eyes as she took a deep breath, trying her best to remember this smell of his. She didn't know why, but after hugging Yang Ze, she felt a great sense of comfort and safety. It was a weird feeling, after all the boy was just a mortal, yet he was able to give off a calm and soothing aura. Something that she was unwilling to let go of.
Xia Xueqi didn't know how long this lasted, but she was unwilling to let go of him. If possible, she wanted to be like this forever, free from worries. But alas! Just like everything good comes to an end, this came too.
"Yang Ze..."
"My name is Yang Ze."
In the end, Yang Ze finally told her his name. At this moment he wasn't worried about someone finding out about his true identity. God knows how many more Yang Ze's were in this world other than him. One would have to take his sketch along with this name to even have a chance to find something about him. And even if they found out about his identity, there wasn't much they were going to do. After all, in the eyes of others, he was still a mortal. And ignoring this, if someone really decided to take action against him, then he wouldn't mind putting them in their grave.
"Heh... Nice name." Xia Xueqi's eyes flashed for a moment as she etched this name deep in her mind. After bidding him one final goodbye, she made her way back home. Even though she desperately wanted to knock him out and take him with her to the Xuanwu Academy, she didn't dare to.
One; she was afraid of his reaction after all this, and two; she didn't want to take action under the nose of an Innate expert that was perhaps protecting Yang Ze. In the end, she could only grit her teeth. At this moment, she could only pray that Yang Ze wouldn't be caught up in all the mess. And if by chance something happened to him...
"Then...." With cold eyes that were filled with murderous intent, Xia Xueqi let out a snort.

"Now then..." Stretching his body Yang Ze sat on the chair out in his garden near the river. There were many things that needed his attention. The first thing he needed to do was to change his business model. He couldn't just sit there all day, attending to the people.
The second thing is the Leihui Sect. Even though he knew about their plan and history, he wasn't in the mood to stop them. He didn't have any enmity with them. Sure, they were going to sacrifice a lot of people, but it was none of his concern. He could care less about the people that were going to die in the future. As long as it didn't affect him or his plans, he had no reason to take any action.
As for the matter of them being evil...
"Heh..." Giving out a hollow laugh, Yang Ze focused on the third and final thing, the screen in front of him.
------------------------------------------------------
{Name: Yang Ze}
{Realm: Innate (Heaven and Earth), Formation Master}
{Fleshy Body: Innate}
{XP: 4750}
{Fishing: Curret Location Mehull} (3000 XP for major chance) (1000 Spirit stones for minor chance)
{Personal Space: 5 cubic meters}
{Efficiency: 500 XP/day}
{Level: 4} (0/10 essense stones needed to upgrade)
{Mark Of Sin: 1/11}
--------------------------------------------------------
"Now then..." Yang Ze had two options, he could either try the spirit stones fishing or he could go for the XP fishing. Thinking for a while, Yang Ze finally decided to go with the second option, the XP fishing.
He already had 4750 XP and even if he uses three thousand right now, he would still be left with seventeen hundred. And after six more days, he will return back to the same amount he is right now.
After making up his mind, Yang Ze walked inside the house and started arranging rune formation. Making sure everything was perfect, Yang Ze sat in the middle of it and looked at the screen once more. Taking a deep breath, he finally clicked the XP fishing with eyes full of expectations.
Just like before, the moment he clicked on it, a small portal slowly opened in front of him. And in the next moment, a fishing rod formed in his hand. However, compared to the previous white fishing rod, this one was pitch black. narrowing his eyes, Yang Ze admired this fishing pole for a while. The entire fishing rod seemed like a shadow, with numerous stars inside it.
After admiring this beauty, Yang Ze raised it back before throwing the hook inside the portal.
"SSSSzzzzzz...."
Within a few moments, the entire portal trembled. It was as if it was going to crumble at any moment. However, no matter how it shook, it never shattered.
Compared to the previous time he did it, it took longer this time. Hours passed as Yang Ze waited patiently. And after two hours, the entire portal trembled.
"It's here." Yang Ze who was about to fall asleep yanked the fishing rod with all his strength. At this moment, he was a powerhouse whose fleshy body was already in the realm of Innate. And even with that much power, it was proving difficult for him to pull out the thing caught inside the portal.
Clenching the fishing rod tightly, Yang Ze pulled it but it seemed to be stuck. No matter how hard he pulled, it didn't move an inch.
"Fucking piece of shit." With a loud curse, Yang Ze ignited the Qi inside his body as he covered his entire body in the white armor. At this moment, his entire figure seemed blurred, like a humanoid creature without a face. Enveloping the rod with his Qi and the aura of heaven and earth, Yang Ze closed his eyes. The sheer pressure that was emitting from him was enough to kill anyone below Mid-Stage Qi Guiding. If not for the runes in the room, half of the city would have been destroyed.
The moment he deployed his Qi and aura of heaven and earth, his strength almost doubled. Even with the protection of the runes, the walls and the ground of the house were now full of cracks, as if they were going to fall at any moment.
The fishing rod which was stuck a moment ago slowly started moving. Gritting his teeth, Yang Ze put the entire strength that he could muster and gave it a final pull.
The moment he did it, something flew out of the portal, falling near him.
"Finally." Sighing in-breath, Yang Ze smiled and was about to pick it up. But before he even had the chance to see what it was, the entire ground shook, followed by a loud deafening sound.
"BOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMM....."
Yang Ze who had used almost all of his strength fell to the ground and along with him, the entire house which was already in a poor condition fell apart too.
"WHAT HAPPENED!?"
"WHAT THE FUCK!?"
"WHAT'S GOING ON!?"
"HEAVENS, DID SOMEONE ATTACK THE CITY?"
Within a few moments, the entire city was filled with miserable cries. At this moment, people rushed out of their houses, screaming in terror, confused by what just happened.
Yang Ze who was lying under the debris of his house slowly crawled out of it. It took a moment for him to register what just happened. Half of the city seemed to be destroyed. Many houses other than his were destroyed leaving clouds of dust throughout the city. On the roads, people were rushing out frantically. Some were naked, some were injured and many of them lay dead on the ground.
"What the hell just happened!?" Yang Ze's heart trembled for a moment. The first thought that came to his mind was the item that came out of the portal. After his house fell upon him, he put it inside his personal space to keep it safe.
"It can't be..." Looking at the destruction, Yang Ze breathed in cold air. And just when he was about to talk to the other person, a terrifying aura rose from the center of the city, covering the entire city within it.
"WHO IS IT!?" A grim sound that was filled with anger echoed throughout the city. And as soon as this sound echoed, ordinary people lost consciousness. Even Yang Ze, who was standing flabbergasted felt pressure like never before.
And in the horrified eyes of every living person in the Mehull city, a gigantic pair of eyes formed above the city, overlooking all of them.
"I SAID... WHO STOLE FROM ME!?"
