Chapter 686: Escape

Chen Tianci and the others descended slowly.

When the platform arrived at its destination, it suddenly lit up.

Chen Tianci looked up, and when he saw it, he was shocked.

In the distance, a figure stood in front of a light door more than two meters high, about to step in.

The arrival of Chen Tianci and the others seemed to alarm him. He turned back quickly.

Seeing this, Chen Tianci, Fang Lei, and that person were stunned at the same time.

Chen Tianci and Fang Lei continued to be overjoyed. Because that person is Dongfang Ming.

It's just that Dongfang Ming's appearance has become unbelievable to them at this time. His body had shrunk by almost half, and his hands and feet had become strangely elongated.

This kind of Dongfang Ming can be described as a ghost.

And Dongfang Ming, after the initial shock, a look of horror and panic flashed in his eyes.

He didn't wait for Chen Tianci and the others to leave the lifting platform, and he plunged into the light gate and disappeared.

Fang Lei roared angrily, jumped out, chased after him closely, and also plunged into the light gate, nowhere to be found.

Chen Tianci didn't have time to stop the thunder, so he could only watch him enter the light gate and disappear with Dongfang Ming.

And the light gate, after Fang Lei entered, only lasted less than a second, and then dissipated in midair.

"Fang Lei, wait!" Chen Tianci shouted and rushed away, but only caught a little bit of light that had no substance. And then, there was nothing.

All was calm.

Fang Lei was nowhere to be found.

Dongfang Ming also didn't know where to go.

Such an ending was unexpected by Chen Tianci.

But after thinking about it carefully, he felt that this was also an inevitable thing.

The hatred and pain that Dongfang Ming brought to Fang Lei cannot be described in words. When Fang Lei saw Dongfang Ming, he would only think about tearing the other party to pieces.

It is completely reasonable that there will be a situation today.

Chen Tianci could only sigh in a low voice and quickly informed the people waiting above.

The shadow guards then descended and quickly took control of all the equipment in their hands. Chen Tianci urgently summoned Wuji's entire group of researchers to rush here, hoping to find a way to activate the light gate.

Wuji received Chen Tianci's summons, almost under the stars, and rushed over.

Chen Tianci then asked the shadow guards about the investigation of the tunnel that went up.

The shadow guard's report made Chen Tianci slightly shocked in his heart.

The tunnel, which connected to a storage room, was filled with skyscrapers filled with dark energy. Moreover, those Ferris spars were also manipulated and set a lot of traps.

The entering mecha warrior accidentally activated some crystals, and as a result, the entered mecha warrior was wiped out.

This astonishing loss made Chen Tianci not only frightened, but also secretly rejoiced.

Those traps are powerful, and they are most likely set against him. If he hadn't seen through the enemy's tricks and had gone there with Fang Lei, I'm afraid the consequence would have been that both of them would have been killed.

Even if you don't die, you will end up seriously injured.

So vicious Dongfang Ming.

Chen Tianci's eyes narrowed slightly, and he was worried about Fang Lei in his heart.

Dongfang Ming's open light gate doesn't know where it is going. If it is another dangerous situation, then Fang Lei's situation is worrying.

He thought about the last time he saw Dongfang Ming. At that time, Dongfang Ming's height was not only half of his usual height, but even his hands and feet had changed.

What exactly is going on, Chen Tianci is not clear. But it must have something to do with something in this house or this city.

I'm afraid that everything will not be known until Wuji and the others arrive.

Chen Tianci calculated the time, Wuji and the others arrived here, not to mention that it would take three or five days. And because he didn't understand the principle of the equipment in this room, he didn't dare to touch it at will, so he could only wait for Wuji and the others to arrive.

While waiting for Wuji and the others, Chen Tianci and the members who arrived later carried out a preliminary transformation of the city built under the seabed.

The basic seawater separation system and the freshwater circulation system were set up, and the power equipment was assembled.

A dead city that was originally dark, damp, and cold gradually became a little more alive under the hard work of Chen Tianci and others.

While transforming the city, Chen Tianci also learned the latest news from Ye Feng's side.

After the destruction of the Eastern City, the Eastern City-State organized a counterattack, but was defeated by Longtu's fleet. The defeated army retreated into the nearby cities of the eastern city-states and put up a final resistance.

However, Long Tu's fleet and Ye Luoqiu's shadow guard forces took a joint action and silently eliminated the enemy's last remaining high-ranking figures. The tide of battle changed in an instant.

The remnants of the eastern city-states completely collapsed.

The cities of the eastern city-states then surrendered one after another.

Ye Luoqiu took the idea and eliminated all the people of the Dongfang family in the Eastern City-State, and the rest of them were pardoned. She also did a very cruel thing.

That is, a secret order was issued to all the city lords of Toucheng, as long as all the heads of the Dongfang family in their city were presented, she would not only pardon the city, but also give tax exemption for three years. If one does not fall and kills all of them, then they can be collectively tax-exempt for ten years.

Such preferential conditions are that Chen Tianci's heart is beating wildly when he listens.

The annual tax fee of a deep-sea city is about 10 million or more, and in ten years, only one city can reduce taxes in units of 100 million. Ten years of collective tax exemption, what a big deal!

This is the city lord of any city, and he will definitely be tempted.

And the more ruthless thing is still aimed at the Dongfang family. Ye Luoqiu's secret order also mentioned that if the city lord of any city, or an individual, dared to hide and protect the people of the Dongfang family, and the city lord of this city did not take corresponding measures, then she would order the fleet to completely wipe the city from the bottom of the sea.

What a terrible woman!

Chen Tianci wiped the cold sweat on his forehead.

Ouyang Qianqian is Fang Lei's daughter-in-law and Ye Luoqiu's friend. Since Fang Lei returned to Chen Tianci and entered the Peace City, Ye Luoqiu would go to Ouyang Qianqian to talk whenever he had time. The friendship between the two was forged at that time.

Now, Ouyang Qianqian was so hurt and destroyed by Dongfang Ming, and even Chen Tianci could feel the resentment in her heart.

Chen Tianci smiled bitterly, and did not stop Ye Luoqiu's action plan.

He knew that if he dared to stop this woman at this time, then what was waiting for him would be a bitter fruit. It's still a bitter fruit that will make him cry bitter.

When Ye Luoqiu is angry, don't disobey her. This is the experience that Chen Tianci and Ye Luoqiu have summed up after many years of getting along.

"Do as she says." Chen Tianci put down the documents in his hand and instructed the administrative officer who came to inquire.

The affairs officer answered, and was about to go down, when Chen Tianci called him back again.

"Give her maximum authority. All troops and personnel, at her disposal. If anyone who violates her secret orders appears, do not spare your hand, and kill them all. Chen Tianci said coldly.

The clerk was stunned, nodded hurriedly, and then left quickly.
