Chapter 863: Chapter 852 Understanding the Situation
"I’m full, thank you for your hard work." Not sure if it’s because she’s back home, Xia Yue felt a bit stuffed as she leaned back in her chair, rubbing her stomach to alleviate its pressure.
"It’s okay, as long as you’re full. You guys go relax in the parlor; we’ll take care of things here." Ao Mi looked at them finishing their meal and hurried them off, since there wasn’t a need for so many people around anyway, and they certainly had plenty to talk about—this wasn’t the best place for chatting.
"We have a big pot here of the fruit tea we made; take it with you." Peng Zu brought out a very large pot from the kitchen, likely holding about ten liters, enough for them to drink.
Without any fuss, they took the pot and left for the hotel’s parlor.
"Comfortable." Xia Yue stretched out on the soft couch with a satisfied remark.
"Indeed, comfortable. If I stay here too long, I might become corrupted. I don’t feel like working at all; it’s so nice here." Xia Xi was also lounging on the couch, a total contrast to her usual self—if she stayed any longer, she wouldn’t want to go to work either.
"Then you should rest for another day tomorrow and then head back to work. A lot has happened recently, and we could use your help." Xia Yu said to them, looking at Xia Yue. His younger sister had already reached an advanced stage of laziness beyond redemption; the fact that she was even moving was a good sign. Xia Xi, on the other hand, wasn’t completely spoiled yet, so it was best to salvage the situation while they still could.
"Yes, you mean the recovery of spiritual power, right? I heard that spiritual power is starting to return to Blue Star, and many people are now able to cultivate," Yan Mo asked immediately when he brought up the subject.
"Right, you’ve been away from Blue Star for three months. One month after you left, phenomena of spiritual power erupting occurred around the world on Blue Star. Many people began cultivating, and their abilities are all different. You could think of them as being similar to what’s described in their mythical stories. There are some cultivators who can be categorized as superpower users, possessing a variety of bizarre superpowers—like invisibility, great strength, X-ray vision, mind-reading, and the like.
Many people, after awakening to their powers, became arrogant, believing they could rule the world and started causing havoc everywhere.
Thanks to you, our country was well-prepared in advance and had the means to respond. Those causing trouble were quickly apprehended. The seriously criminal ones were made an example of, executed publicly to show the people that the state would exact a price for crime, no matter whether you had powers or not.
As a result, it kept those with ulterior motives at bay."
"But it’s different abroad; they have more faith in human rights and freedom, and their authorities didn’t stop it promptly, leading to chaos in many places. A slight misstep could lead to being captured and killed by those malevolent superpower users.
The news I got is that a member of the Bai Family went abroad for fun some time ago and was killed by those foreign superpower users. I heard it was a gruesome death, a complete act of torture.
His parents sought out Old Master Bai, asking him to help take revenge, but the Bai Family has no influence abroad. They wished they could plead with our government to negotiate with foreign powers, but our nation had already warned that abroad was very dangerous and advised against traveling. However, that Bai Family member didn’t listen, even mocking the warnings as fear-mongering.
So the chances of getting help from our government are pretty much non-existent, but if the Bai Family can avenge themselves, no one will stop them."
Xia Yu shared with them the events of the recent period.
