Chapter 2: Journey to Birthday

On a cold and windy night, the flickering lights on both sides of the street seem to point to the road to the netherworld, and the antique street does not exude its due temperament, but looks particularly bleak and sad. A stocky middle-aged man, dressed in an orange suit and a black top hat, hurriedly walked down the deserted street with a valuable briefcase under his arm. The man looked nervous, looking around from time to time, as if a beast with sharp teeth hidden in the darkness would pounce on him at any moment.

The man's steps became faster and faster, from brisk walking to trotting, trotting to running wildly, he felt the coming of death, although the cold was biting, but his forehead was already oozing layers of sweat, steaming with bursts of white gas. The man just ran into the darkness away from the town, but at that moment, he stumbled and fell to the soft snow, and his briefcase came out of his hand. He didn't care about patting the snow on his body, and flew into his briefcase and hugged him in his arms.

"It's still there. The man wiped the snow from his briefcase as he stood up and continued running, but at that moment he froze. At the place where he had tripped just now, a vine had shattered the pavement made of stone slabs, and a dead knot stood there, which was the culprit who tripped him. At this moment, a cool breath hit the back of his erect neck, and a leisurely voice sounded in his ears. "Give me three seconds to give me the briefcase and let you live. The man turned around and swung his fist and smashed it, but the moment he turned around, blood exploded in his chest like a fountain. A bright rose bloomed from his heart. The man's mind went blank and fell to the ground. At the last moment of death, he saw a handsome young man, with a disdainful sneer on the corner of his mouth, and bent down to pick up the briefcase he regarded as life. "It's ironic that the blood of garbage can produce such beautiful flowers. The boy wiped the mixture of blood and snow from his briefcase, and walked towards the city center without looking back.

In front of the warm fireplace, a middle-aged man of medium stature sat on a leather sofa and intently flipped through the papers in his hand. Although the cold wind outside the house was like heavy snow, and the flames inside the house were burning and crackling, the man's momentum drowned out the turbulent roar of nature, as deep and quiet as the sea. This middle-aged man is Guo Fengxiao, the city lord of Mengliang City in the north of the Yellow Emperor Continent. Mengliang City has a special geographical location and management area, which is close to the Hades Continent in the northeast and the Athena Continent in the northwest, which belongs to the dividing point between the Eastern World and the Western World, and is also the gate of the northern part of the Yellow Emperor Continent. Guo Fengxiao was already famous and surprising when he was young, and only this person can be exchanged for a quiet and peaceful happy life for ordinary people. Guo Fengxiao held up the gold-wire glasses on the bridge of his nose and said lightly: "Guo Yixuan, since you are back, don't come in quickly." "The young man named Guo Yixuan is one meter eight tall, has a well-proportioned figure, and his appearance is not handsome, but he is relatively delicate. The jet-black hair spilled down on the forehead, a pair of Danfeng eyes were blazing, and the snow-white skin seemed to be carved from pink jade, which made women envious. At the age of twenty, he is heroic and sassy, and his body exudes a vigorous vitality like sunshine.

The young man appeared in front of the man in an instant, and said proudly, "Father, this task is too simple. Easy and enjoyable!" "How many times have I told you not to use superhuman powers again. Our Yellow Emperor family is the ruler of the elemental system, if you let others know that you have dual abilities, it will lead to a catastrophe, and no one can save you!" Guo Fengxiao was not angry. "Oh, I know my father, and there are no outsiders here, so I won't let anyone else know. Guo Yixuan hurriedly changed the topic, "I have the briefcase, what is inside?" The middle-aged man took the briefcase, flicked his fingers lightly, and the password lock on the briefcase opened automatically, and he said without raising his head, "You haven't reached the time to understand these things, this is your first time on a mission, and you need to continue to hone your strength in the future, and when you reach a higher level, you will naturally know what you should know." "It's a grind every time, and I've been honing it for twenty years, and it's almost smooth. The middle-aged man raised his head and said solemnly: "Remember that there are people outside the people, and there are mountains outside the mountains." The war of the creator is not bloody and bloody, life and death are only for a moment, and after that, either you die or I die. If you can't kill with one blow, then you can only die. This is by no means alarmist, if you want to survive in this world, you should never despise anyone until you have figured out the strength of others. "Oh, I see!" Guo Yixuan interrupted his father disdainfully.

Just then, a dignified and beautiful woman pushed open the door. "Mother, haven't you slept so late?" Guo Yixuan happily ran to the woman's side and grabbed her arm. "I can't rest assured that you're on a mission for the first time, come and take a look, it's safe!" It's really a worry about the mother of the child, this middle-aged woman is named Qiu Yue, although she is not a creator and has no great power, but she is also a famous talented woman when she is young. "By the way, Fengxiao, did you tell Xuan'er?" "Just about to mention this" Guo Fengxiao put down the leather bag in his hand, sat down and waved his hand to let Guo Yixuan sit down, "A week later, it will be the seventieth birthday of the president Lotus." Your mother and I are so busy with official business that we can't go to pay homage in person. I want you to bring a congratulatory gift for us and go to the general meeting to congratulate us. I will arrange for a few escorts to accompany you to ensure your safety, and I will leave early tomorrow morning. Guo Yixuan was stunned for a moment, and then hugged his father with joy and shouted happily, "Great, father, thank you, father." I haven't traveled alone since I was a child, and I can see Liuli again when I go to the club, hahahaha!" "Who said that you are alone, accompanied by an escort!", and you have grown up, it is time to go out to experience the experience, but you must pay attention to safety, do things in a measured manner, and not lose your father's face. You should rest early today, and you will have to hurry early tomorrow morning. The father pushed his son away and said lovingly. "Okay, okay. Good night father, good night mother, I'll go back to my room to rest!" Guo Yixuan said and hugged his mother beside him, and then went back to the house with joy.

Guo Fengxiao glanced deeply at Qiu Yue, and Qiu Yue was already full of tears at this time. He said slowly: "I don't know if we can see each other again." All we can do is keep Xuan'er away from this bloody disaster. Whether Xuan'er's special dual power can break the curse that can only stay at the first order forever, I'm afraid we can't witness it with our own eyes. Qiu Yue choked up and said: "I don't care if I can break it, I don't care if he is strong in the future or not." I just want our children to live happily ever after. Guo Fengxiao nodded, and hugged Qiuyue tightly into his arms, "You and I will never give up, life and death depend on each other." If there is an afterlife, I would like to spend my life with you again!" The sound of whimpering cries echoed in the snowy courtyard.
