Chapter 2308: A Fake Sky

Zu An’s thoughts moved extremely quickly. He didn’t immediately enter a state of despair, and instead focused on what he could do to survive.

The True Demon Emissary wasn’t an idiot. He definitely wouldn't put himself in a clear situation of despair. Judging from his records, it seemed he'd also been paying attention to the mountain’s changes. In that case, he had to have known that this place could be destroyed at any time.

The reason why he had made this the endpoint of the transportation formation, rather than somewhere in the True Demons' home, was for the sake of protecting his secrets. But there was no need to put himself in that much danger in order to preserve a secret. He definitely had to have prepared smethod to respond to this kind of situation. So just what was it, then?

The first thing Zu An thought of was that there was no way they could remain on the surface if they wanted to avoid the terrifying cyclones. They could only go further underground. So was there an underground path?

But he quickly rejected that thought. He had scanned this entire place as soon as he arrived. If there were secret tunnels, he would have noticed immediately. Besides, the remains of the greatest mountain were all made of the toughest stone. Cutting open such a surface wasn’t too realistic.

He had thought about cutting a path underground himself, but before even considering whether or not he would be able to quickly cut into this stone that was tougher than diamond, he'd realized he would end up destroying the defensive formations around them as soon as he began. If that happened, all of them would be instantly torn to shreds by the terrifying winds.

He had the instant movement skill, but he couldn't bring away so many people with it...

He quickly gave up on that thought, and instead tried to think from the True Demon Emissary’s perspective. The only way to leave this place was another transport formation!

But the formation disc had been destroyed the moment they arrived. There were no signs of another formation disc nearby either.

“Three!”

“Two!”

...

Jiang Luofu’s countdown continued. From her initial alarm to her now calmer voice, it was clear that she had already accepted her fate.

Zu An had a sudden insight and grabbed the notebook from Suolun Shi’s hands. Then, he took out a badly damaged formation disc from his inner pockets. The two unexpectedly resonated, and the newly-formed formation disc produced blue light, wrapping the group within. The surrounding space rippled intensely, and all of them disappeared.

At almost the stime, the last defensive formation was destroyed by the winds. Just then, the entire fort was turned to dust by the relentless cyclones.

The group members all felt a sense of weightlessness. Soon after, they reappeared in another formation. There were no lethal cyclones; instead, there were only clear skies and a beautiful sun. There was even birdsong and fragrant flowers. They seemed to be in a valley.

“Am I dreaming?” Yun Yuqing took in everything around her with disbelief.

“Have I already died?” Ji Xiaoxi rubbed her eyes. As she looked at everything around her, she didn’t really believe it either.

Then, she cried out in surprise. She held her face and gave Zu An a wronged look.

Zu An had a big smile on his face as he gave her cheek a pinch. He had to admit that supple and smooth feeling was pretty good. “Of course not. Otherwise, how could you still feel pain?”

“Big brother Zu, you’re so mean! Why didn’t you pinch yourself to check instead?” Ji Xiaoxi couldn't help but complain. Jiang Luofu quickly stood in front of her and gave Zu An an annoyed look, fearing that he would continue bullying others.

Pei Mianman was the first to snap out of her daze. “Ah Zu, just how did we end up here?”

Zu An explained his thought process. “I actually already noticed that incomplete formation disc when I was going through the True Demon Emissary’s belongings. But at the time, I just thought it was something he was still working on and didn’t give it too much attention.”

Xie Daoyun nodded. As a formation master, she had a lot of half-completed goods on her too. Whenever she suddenly gained sinsight, she sometimes got started working on sformations, but for varying reasons, they couldn't be completed. That was why she had a lot of incomplete formation diskc as well.

Zu An continued, “When I realized that we could only leave from this place through a formation, I was wondering where the True Demon Emissary would hide the formation disc. There were none in the fort, and with the True Demon Emissary’s cautiousness, he would definitely keep it on him. I thought through all of the things he had with him and remembered that this formation’s missing part seemed to be identical to the notebook, so I put them together. Fortunately, I succeeded.”

“Big brother Zu is too amazing! I already closed my eyes and waited for death, but you were actually able to think of this kind of method in such a short amount of time!” Suolun Shi’s eyes were full of admiration.

Jiang Luofu also had similar feelings. She'd been counting down the time, and needed to remain calm to accurately calculate the rate at which the formation would be destroyed. But the more she did that, the greater the pressure she'd felt. Even with everything she knew, she couldn't think of any solution, yet Zu An had managed to find the path to survival in such a short amount of time.

He is a man of miracles after all. No wonder these women are all so infatuated with him...

“It was just a fluke.” Zu An still felt lingering fear when he recalled what happened. That had just been cutting it too close. If he'd guessed incorrectly, everyone here could have perished.

If they had died in their previous world, it wouldn’t have been that big of a deal. He was now the underworld lord. Even if he couldn't revive them, he could take care of their souls. But the Monster World was so far away, so if they perished here, they wouldn't necessarily return to the underworld. That was, unless he combined this world’s law beacon with the underworld. But the Monster World was already about to be destroyed, so if he combined them, the Annihilation Beast could end up going to their world. Thus,he quickly gave up on that thought.

As she looked at Zu An, Pei Mianman was full of love. If it had just been once or twice, maybe they would just be flukes. But she had already experienced so many things with Ah Zu and gone through too many similar situations of despair. Somehow, he had always managed to turn the situation around. How could that be described as just a fluke?

As expected of the man I love!

Xie Daoyun was also extremely excited. She wanted to say something, but the other women had already expressed their burning passion. How could she join in on such a lively atmosphere with her reserved nature? Instead, she bit her lip and looked around before asking curiously, “Were we transported to another world? This city has a bright sun shining over it and a pleasant environment. There’s no trace of the terrifying winds at all.”

The women were all shocked. They really didn’t want to experience those frightening cyclones again.

Zu An shook his head. “No, we're still in the Monster World.”

Even Pei Mianman was confused now. She pointed at the sun above them. “Even the sun is here, and the sky is also really peaceful.”

Every world had its own star that was like the sun.

“That’s because this is a fake sky.” Zu An pointed at the sun above them. “The sun is also fake.”
