I Have A Dual World Seal

(Chapter 1211 has been released)

There’s no rush with the Red Chess River project. After all, the river spans over 6,000 kilometers, and it’s not just about digging it out.

As stated in the research report, considerations must be made for terrain, landscape, environmental traffic, and particularly geological suitability.

If something goes wrong, the river floods, and the Shushan Basin and downstream areas will suffer.

Every day, Lu Zheng opens a section, not only adjusting and reinforcing the soil and stone around and below the riverbed but ensuring small-scale earthquakes won’t affect the river.

...

"Satellite images show changes occurring in the mountains between the Nu River and Yarlung Zangbo River."

"There’s a shift in mountain positions!"

"The terrain has changed, with a valley spanning several kilometers connected into a line."

"Moving mountains..."

"Overnight, it’s become like this."

"It’s incredible!"

"Will the Lighthouse Country’s satellites notice these changes?"

"Their satellites are all focused on our military bases, not the Hengduan Mountain Range."

"However, the Qinling and other waterways are concerns. Yu Ya, contact Lu Zheng and ask him to perform these tasks at night so that we can better conceal them."

"Yes!"

...

Lu Zheng clocked in daily for work at Blue Star, but he only worked a bit each day, spending the rest of the time traversing Great Jing, listening to books, and enjoying time with friends.

"We’ve been here for over a month; it’s time to return."

"I must say, the girls at Chunfeng Building are fine, but they can’t compare to Xiuyun Building in Yizhou Prefecture, Red Cloud Pavilion in Rongzhou Prefecture, Qingyan Studio in Yanzhou Prefecture, Xi Liu Hall in Yuzhou Prefecture."

"A performance of ’Chinese Paladin’ and ’The Legend of the White Snake’, it’s truly satisfying."

"Brother Lu, promise us, we’ll come again next year, and have a new script ready!"

"Yue Yao, Xiaowan, next time we visit Tushan, have Qingyan take you along."

"Anyway, your sister will give you snacks. I’d better take these chocolates and ice creams for now."

Outside Tonglin County, Lu Zheng and his group were bidding farewell to the Tushan Celestial Foxes.

Over a month of playing, everyone had a great time.

Beside them, Tu Yuya was reminding Liu Qingyan, "You haven’t returned to Tushan this year; the old lady often talks about you. Will you return for the New Year?"

Liu Qingyan shook her head, "I’m not going home for the New Year. I’ll find time to visit before then and see the old lady."

The group had previously agreed to spend this New Year at Phoenix Mountain.

They believed the old lady would understand.

"Alright then, we’ll wait in the mountains," Tu Yuya said with a smile.

Tu Yujiao glanced at Lu Zheng, then said meaningfully, "This year, I don’t think anyone will compete with us for the Five-Colored Pheasants; we might catch a few more and enjoy them slowly."

Lu Zheng laughed heartily, ready to reply, when his gaze suddenly sharpened, looking eastward.

"What’s wrong?"

Tu Yujiao asked, then saw her elder sister’s expression change.

In the next moment, a stream of light flickered from the horizon but suddenly trembled and reversed direction, plummeting into the forest below.

"Is it Yue Yifeng?" Tu Yuya’s eyes narrowed.

"He’s injured," Lu Zheng nodded.

"Let’s go!"

Lu Zheng waved his hand, swiftly taking everyone who came to bid farewell, flying away.

After traversing dozens of miles, they arrived at the location where the stream of light had just fallen. Lu Zheng saw Yue Yifeng, whose complexion was pale, and Mo Yue Xian, unconscious in his arms.

"Brother Yue!"

As Lu Zheng and the group descended, Liu Qingyan flickered and appeared beside Mo Yue Xian, checking her wrist.

Yue Yifeng’s aura was extremely weak as he hovered between consciousness and unconsciousness, faintly exhaling black smoke.

"Demonic Qi!"

Lu Zheng’s eyes narrowed, reaching out to grasp Yue Yifeng’s wrist, channeling Innate Cloud Qi to help stabilize his injuries.

Stimulated by the Innate Cloud Qi, Yue Yifeng regained a bit of clarity, nodded at Lu Zheng, and glanced at his wife, "Thank you, Brother Lu. How’s Yue Xian?"

Liu Qingyan immediately replied, "Her life isn’t in danger!"

"That’s good," Yue Yifeng nodded, then looked at Lu Zheng, "Yue Xian and I encountered a demon in the east. Yue Xian took a hit for me, and I fled desperately. He should still be trailing us."

Lu Zheng acknowledged, "Rest first, leave this to me."

Yue Yifeng nodded, sighed in relief, and then passed out.

"A demon is still trailing?" Tu Yuya’s eyes narrowed.

Lu Zheng channeled Innate Cloud Qi within Yue Yifeng’s body, a dark demon pattern momentarily flickered on his hand, then embedding the same Innate Cloud Qi into Mo Yue Xian, revealing an identical pattern.

"The demon left marks on both of them." Lu Zheng frowned, perplexed, "What’s his intention?"

Killing is typical for demons, but leaving tracking marks isn’t ordinary.

Should we remove these markings?" Liu Qingyan asked.

Though her cultivation was inferior to Yue Yifeng’s, the Tushan Scripture and the Red Pine Seed’s Left Commandment Jade Water Pill Scripture she cultivated were top-notch techniques capable of erasing the demon pattern.

"Why remove them?" Lu Zheng shook his head, "Let’s lure the demon here instead."

"This location is too close to the official road; let’s return to Peach Blossom Plain," Shen Ying suggested.

With the old peach tree as the core and endless Incense and Candle Qi in Peach Blossom Plain, Shen Ying could exert power beyond her limits.

Currently, Si Lingxi was absent, and Shen Ying wanted to shoulder more of the burden for Lu Zheng.

"Alright, let’s head back to Peach Blossom Plain and wait for him," Lu Zheng agreed.

Over the past month, everyone including Lu Zheng’s family, Du Yueyao, Wang Xiaowan, Ning Zhiqi, Zhu Yushan and his wife, as well as Hu Cai Niang and Bi Xinyu, had enjoyed a pleasant time with the Tushan Celestial Fox family.

"We’ll all go!" Hu Cai Niang declared.

"Are you going to see the spectacle?" Lu Zheng laughed.

Lu Zheng wasn’t concerned since the one who forced Yue Yifeng to flee was only about as strong as him. With the advantage of Peach Blossom Plain’s territory, Lu Zheng ensured he could capture the demon.

"Yes, yes!" Yu Mingxin nodded.

Though they were novices, it didn’t mean they didn’t enjoy witnessing expert magical combat!

Yue Yifeng was already a superstar in their eyes, and a demon that gravely injured him was certainly formidable.

Nevertheless, they weren’t worried since Yue Yifeng’s sparring with Lu Zheng never overcame the Innate Cloud Qi barrier.

The Tu Yuya group weren’t in a rush either as they’d wait there and escort Yue Yifeng back afterward.

Thus, everyone headed to Peach Blossom Plain, settled the couple down, and resumed their conversations at leisure.

By sunset, approaching midnight.

A wisp of demonic aura quietly floated in.
