Urban Sims

The battle is over.

The ruins were cleared, the casualties were treated, and finally the losses were tallied.

More than a thousand houses collapsed.

The length of the destroyed city wall was nearly three miles.

Thousands of people were lightly or seriously injured, and 3,183 soldiers and civilians died.

It's equivalent to a 9/11 terrorist attack.

And the powerful monks in this world are far more powerful and terrifying than the terrorists.

If the Nether Ancestor hadn't been careless due to pride, there would have been no possibility of being seriously injured... This also shows how terrifying the powerful monk is. Such a powerful shot only wounded, and he had to hit it later.

Fortunately, the Nether Ancestor was eventually killed and died at the hands of what he regarded as an "ant".

It was impossible for Zhou Ming not to feel heartbroken at the huge loss. Many perfect construction facilities, more than one-third of the soldiers of the Home Guard Army, and many outstanding talents that Zhou Ming was optimistic about were photographed like ants in this attack. It's gone. Zhou Ming's more than ten years of hard work was severely damaged in a short period of time.

Fortunately, most of the farms and factories were in the suburbs. When the attack came, the workers were at work... Zhou Ming's foundation was not seriously affected.

But it will take at least a year to fully recover.

In addition, the guest team also suffered heavy losses.

Four of the seven guests were killed in the battle.

The remaining three were seriously injured, but after receiving treatment, their lives were out of danger.

The three people are: Su Yuanlong, Jian Baiyi, and... Jiang Ruonan.

Jiang Ruonan is still alive?

Yes, Zhou Ming felt particularly surprised. Under that kind of shock wave, the Nether Ancestor could not withstand it. She was not far away from the explosion, but she was not dead yet?

However, he was more seriously injured and Yuyou woke up three days later.

A week later.

Zhou Ming took some time to visit her.

It happened that students Chen Qi and Fan Qing were also in the room, paying close attention to their "Ruonan teacher".

Seeing this scene, Zhou Ming couldn't help but shake his head secretly. He had never been able to figure out why so many people knew that Jiang Ruonan was a "disaster" who would bring disaster, but they still risked their lives to protect her. Could it be that there was something wrong with her? What kind of "halo" doesn't work?

Through his understanding over the past few years, Zhou Ming discovered that there is indeed a "halo" in this woman. The specific effect of this halo is: Anyone who stays in contact with Jiang Ruonan for a long time will involuntarily be attracted by her. Moved by this kind of affinity, I can't help but feel close to her, express sympathy for her experience, and then want to protect her and care for her from the bottom of my heart.

Even if you risk your life.

For example, in the class taught by Jiang Ruonan in Huxiang School, she quickly became the most popular teacher among students.

Even though she is not in the class she teaches, she is still very popular.

Therefore, Zhou Ming called the aura around her a "deadly" aura.

And keep your distance, unmoved.

Jiang Ruonan was very interested in him, attracted by the rumors about him, and often approached him intentionally or unintentionally.

But Zhou Ming was neither cold nor indifferent. When talking to her, what he was most concerned about was always "When will she leave?"

This is not because Zhou Ming is cruel and unsympathetic, but because Jiang Ruonan's physique is too rare and special. He is the immortal companion that countless strong men desire, and the furnace that countless evil cultivators desire to refine.

Zhou Ming's power is limited and cannot resist those threats. If Zhou Ming is strong enough, no matter how long she stays?

In order to force her to leave, Zhou Ming also tried to kill her, but he was not sure that he would kill her together with six other guests in a short time. In addition, there were many students who were also her admirers. He would probably kill her a lot. People will not be able to accept it.

Therefore, when meeting someone with a halo around them, Zhou Ming feels that being a human being is sometimes really difficult.

It wasn't until this disaster happened and everyone witnessed the tragic consequences that Zhou Ming felt confident enough to solve this problem.

Step into the room.

After hearing the footsteps and turning around to see the person coming, students Chen Qi, Fan Qing and others stopped talking, stood up and stood aside respectfully.

"headmaster."

"headmaster."

Zhou Ming nodded to them and waved his hand: "Please step aside for now. I have a few words to say to your teacher Ruonan."

"Yes, principal."

Student Chen Qi and others took another look at Jiang Ruonan lying on the bed, and left the room one after another, but stayed outside the door.

Pulling up a stool and sitting next to the bed, Zhou Ming asked a few questions after looking at Jiang Ruonan, who was in good spirits but wrapped in a lot of gauze.

"Chen Qi and the others must have told you the specific situation, right? I wonder what you have to say?"

"No."

Jiang Ruonan shook his head and whispered: "Rather than die in the hands of that devil, I would rather die in your hands."

"Is the Nether Ancestor the only demon chasing you?"

Zhou Ming ignored the sad and miserable expression on her face and asked a core question.

"For the past twenty years, only this devil has been chasing me, and now he is finally dead."

Jiang Ruonan looked relaxed and relieved, and smiled slightly: "Thank you, Zhang Shanhe, for avenging my family and friends."

"What about the future? After you recover from your injury, what are your plans?"

Zhou Ming asked again, reminding her: "In order to kill the Nether Ancestor, Limbao Town sacrificed more than three thousand people. These more than three thousand people all had friends and family."

"I understand what you mean. I will leave here in a few days and will never burden you again." The woman said loudly, but two tears welled up in the corners of her eyes.

Hearing this, Zhou Ming nodded, cupped his hands and said: "Miss Jiang understands the righteousness, I am grateful!"

After telling her to take good care of her injuries, Zhou Ming left the room.

Outside the door, student Chen Qi and others, who had their ears pressed against the door and window, heard the conversation in the room and stopped in front of Zhou Ming one by one.

"Principal, if the male teacher is just out of danger, you would drive her away. What's the point of this?"

"Principal, the devil has been eliminated. There will be no strong men coming in the future. Why do we still want to force Teacher Ruonan away?"

"If there are another demons coming, with our Lingyuan Spear and Lingyuan Cannon, do we need to be afraid of them anymore? Just kill them one by one!"

"Principal, with students like me here, no one will dare to bully Teacher Ruonan, and there won't be any strong enemy who can kill one of us in Limburg Town!"

"Principal, please don't chase Teacher Ruonan away, please!"

The students in front of them either clenched their fists and swore or begged hard. They had only one purpose, hoping to keep Teacher Ruonan.

"presumptuous!"

Zhou Ming shouted sternly, his face was as cold as frost, and he glanced around with sharp eyes. Student Chen Qi and others lowered their heads one after another, not daring to say anything more.

"Aren't there enough people who hate death?"

"Can you keep that woman with your overestimating abilities?"

"If anyone is willing to risk his life to protect her, I have no objection and ask him to leave with that woman!"

"I have said it many times before, Limburg Town is just a mortal market town, not even a small town. How can it have the strength to resist those immortals?"

"Didn't you see the death of the soldiers of the Third Regiment's Home Guard Army? Many outstanding soldiers couldn't even find their bones. They turned into mud and powder... Do you want to die like that too?"

"You can say things like who you want to protect, but you must have the strength! Without strength, it is just empty words and nonsense!"

"Go back and practice hard! If anyone makes ignorant remarks again, he will be expelled from the rural school immediately! He will be driven out of Limburg Town immediately!"

Zhou Ming finally cursed: "A bunch of trash, you can't protect your relatives and people in your hometown well, but you want to protect a woman who is much more powerful than you. Are you all idiots?"

Student Chen Qi and others dispersed dejectedly, no one dared to contradict them again.

…

One month later.

Limburg Town, South Gate.

After recovering from his injuries, Jiang Ruonan, who carried his luggage and led a unicorn horse, got on the horse and embarked on an unknown journey to an unknown destination under the tearful farewell of all the students.

Of course, she didn't leave alone. After Jian Baiyi left her son and daughter in the care of Su Yuanlong, she left with her... Jiang Ruonan's cultivation has not yet fully recovered, and someone needs to protect her safety.

As a result, the number of guests hired by Limburg Town was only Su Yuanlong... He is now the biological father of two children and the "adoptive father" of four "orphans".

Standing on the tower.

Under the setting sun, looking at the two figures who were gradually moving away and finally disappearing on the road, Zhou Ming suddenly asked: "Do you see the problem with that woman?"

Su Yuanlong on the side was thoughtful and nodded slightly: "I can see it a little bit... She seems to be using us. She is very innocent, but..."

"Not brave enough, are you?"

Zhou Ming continued: "This is the reason why she can live until now. She is timid, scared, and dare not face the things she is afraid of, so she is not good at all aspects, except for escaping and concealing her aura. His kung fu is better than anyone else’s.”

"Actually, she also knows in her heart that she will bring disaster to those who care about her, and she should also know what to do to reduce the harm she brings to her friends."

"But she didn't do that. Instead, she improved her communication skills and made more friends. In the end... she sent these friends to their death..."

"Why did she do this? Why didn't she run away alone? Why didn't she bear everything alone? Instead, she kept dragging her friends into the water?"

"I guess, on the one hand, she is afraid of being alone; on the other hand, she may also find that she is unable to cope with the challenge on her own, so she needs friends, even if they only grasp a handful of straw."

"This is a seemingly pathetic woman, but she is also a smart woman and has a very hard heart."

"Once this woman gets out of this difficult situation, with her talent, she will be able to earn a reputation as an ancestor of the Netherworld, but... I wonder if it will be a bad name or a good name?"

After listening to this analysis, Su Yuanlong nodded, feeling suddenly enlightened.

Suddenly his expression changed drastically and he shouted: "Brother in Baiyi is in danger! If you follow that woman, Brother in Baiyi will definitely die!"

Su Yuanlong took two steps forward, ready to jump off the tower, and said anxiously: "I have to call Brother Bai back!"

"Don't go!"

Zhou Ming grabbed his sleeve and shook his head at him: "Then Jian Baiyi is looking for death. Why are you trying to pull him away?"

"How do you say this?" Su Yuanlong looked confused.

"In order to save Jiang Ruonan, Jian Baiyi's wife Han Yixue unfortunately died in the battle. Did he shed a tear? In addition, Jian Baiyi had a close relationship with Jiang Ruonan, and he usually protected her. This time, even his children No, I have to escort Jiang Ruonan... Brother Su hasn’t figured out Jian Baiyi’s purpose yet?”

Moreover, Jiang Ruonan has a spiritual body, and Jian Baiyi's cultivation has been stuck in the late stage of Qi refining for many years.

"this……"

Su Yuanlong's eyes widened, and when he thought of his dead wife again, his expression darkened, and he instantly aged ten years, and his voice was sad: "Hey... what a human heart!"
