Chapter 303 It's been a long time since we last met.
"Are you really going by yourself?"
Wu Xingyun looked at Wu Zhao with great unease, he had a bad feeling.
It was a hard feeling to describe, but looking at Wu Zhao's calm expression, he always felt uneasy.
"Why that expression? It wasn't a big deal to begin with."
Wu Zhao patted his shoulder seemingly unintentionally, then glanced at Wu Liufeng beside him.
"I'll be back soon, you... don't wander off."
Wu Liufeng watched Wu Zhao's retreating figure, his eyes growing increasingly intense.
It was rare for Wu Zhao to be able to take a taxi to the garrison.
The closer they got to the center of the capital, the stronger the ominous feeling became.
Wu Zhao sat in the taxi, staring blankly at the scar on his wrist.
She could feel the connection between herself and Shen Jiaojiao sometimes strong and sometimes weak.
It felt like it might break down at any moment.
Logically speaking, the curse that Shen Jiaojiao planted in her body has not been removed, and this feeling will not appear unless she dies.
But Shen Jiaojiao has extremely strong luck, so how could she be in a near-death state?
Even she couldn't take action against him, since Dog Heaven Path was always watching...
Where is Shen Jiaojiao now?
Are the learned and erudite people of the Witch Saint Cult together?
While Wu Zhao was pondering, the taxi stopped.
The driver said somewhat awkwardly, "I'm sorry, miss, the area ahead is under lockdown, I can't go there."
"Why don't you walk over there?"
He pointed to the cordon, a hint of fear still lingering in his voice.
Upon seeing the fully armed security personnel, Wu Zhao paused for a moment.
What's Gu Jiaxi doing here?
After paying the fare and getting out of the car, Wu Zhao saw Gu Jiaxi running towards him.
His expression was stern.
"You're already at work?"
He had only been rescued a short time, and his face was still somewhat pale.
Thinking of Wu Xingyun, who was still hiding at home, Wu Zhao couldn't help but shake his head.
It turns out that there is no harm without comparison.
Gu Jiaxi felt a little flustered under her gaze, but still nodded.
"Things have been a bit turbulent lately, so I went back to my unit immediately after returning. You've come here to..."
Wu Zhao turned the ring on his hand.
"Didn't you ask the Wu family to attend? My Liufeng can't come, so I'm here in his place."
Gu Jiaxi was taken aback.
But he quickly composed himself, touching his nose.
Although Wu Zhao's voice was calm, he could still detect a hint of dissatisfaction.
"There's no other way, the situation is just too urgent..."
In the capital, the only sorcerers who can command respect are the Wu family.
"Let's go. I want to see what the current metaphysicians are like."
Wu Zhao gestured for him to lead the way.
"this way please."
Having witnessed her methods, Gu Jiaxi naturally wouldn't refuse Wu Zhao.
Soon Wu Zhao followed him into the guard post.
Compared to the heavy security outside, the atmosphere inside the security post was much more relaxed.
As soon as Wu Zhao entered, he sensed a faint but steady fluctuation of spiritual energy.
It looks familiar, but I can't quite place it right now.
Gu Jiaxi pushed open the door to a conference room.
The group of people who had been talking in hushed tones immediately stopped.
However, when they saw the unfamiliar Wu Zhao following behind him, two people frowned, seemingly puzzled.
"This is Wu Zhao, the representative of the Wu family."
Wu Zhao?
An old monk in a kasaya standing to one side inside the door looked at Wu Zhao kindly.
When his wise and calm eyes met Wu Zhao's, a hint of deep thought flashed across them.
He quickly recited a Buddhist chant.
"I never expected the Wu family to have such a capable person. It is truly a blessing for China."
Everyone present was a well-known figure, and after hearing the great monk's evaluation, they couldn't help but become curious about Wu Zhao.
"Are you a branch member of the Wu family? As far as I know, there doesn't seem to be anyone named Wu Zhao in the main branch of the Wu family..."
"However, judging from this young girl's profound aura and enduring spiritual power... the Wu family has a worthy successor."
Wu Zhao couldn't help but rub his forehead.
She's an old-fashioned woman; she's hardly someone who can be considered a successor.
Thinking of her family members waiting for her to return home, Wu Zhao felt a wave of dizziness wash over her.
The future of the Wu family is truly predictable.
She couldn't help but think to herself with a self-deprecating smile.
"Now is not the time for pleasantries."
"The spiritual energy in the capital has suddenly become disordered, and the celestial phenomena have changed drastically... Does anyone have any clues?"
Once the Wu family arrived, the others didn't say anything more.
All eyes turned to Wu Zhao.
Although everyone was asked, everyone knew that only the Wu family could solve the problem.
"...Most likely, there's something wrong with the way of Heaven."
Wu Zhao remained silent for a while before speaking.
Heaven?
The people inside looked at each other.
It is clear that Wu Zhao's answer is unconvincing.
“I discovered a long time ago that someone was trying to seize the power of the Heavenly Dao and take its place.”
"The Heavenly Dao has been suppressing this evil power, but for some reason, its power has become so weak..."
what? !
Everyone inside couldn't help but gasp.
They were all lineage masters of mystic arts, so they naturally understood what the Dao of Heaven represented.
If the laws of Heaven were to go wrong, could the world still remain peaceful?
Wu Zhao spoke while pondering.
Is there any connection between Shen Jiaojiao and the weakening of the Heavenly Dao?
If so, where is she now?
Just as she was racking her brains trying to figure it out, a series of hurried footsteps suddenly came from outside the meeting room.
Gu Jiaxi left but returned.
His face showed a mixture of anger and surprise.
"Something terrible has happened. We just received news that... just five minutes ago, various natural disasters suddenly occurred across the country."
"There have been earthquakes, floods, and even bizarre weather events with torrential rain and blizzards! The losses are incalculable, and the military has been deployed to various locations for rescue operations..."
"The military has remained completely silent; there's been no news at all!"
Military headquarters...?
Feng Boxue!
Wu Zhao's eyes darkened.
Unexpectedly, the Witch Saint Sect has been maintaining Feng Boxue's body all along, intending to stay until this moment!
Their targets are ordinary people?!
A cold, sharp light flashed across Wu Zhao's eyes.
"It seems that something really big is about to happen."
The senior monk let out a long sigh.
"This humble monk will take his leave first. I hope we can meet again, everyone."
He left in a hurry.
After a moment of silence in the meeting room, someone burst out laughing.
"I never thought I'd be able to be a hero after living half my life. I can't be slower than the old monk."
"I'll go too!"
A gentle breeze swept by, and the Taoist priest in his robes vanished from the spot.
Watching them leave one after another, Gu Jiaxi felt her eyes well up with tears.
He turned to look at Wu Zhao, who had remained silent.
What are you planning to do?
Wu Zhao gently twirled the ring on her finger, a faint smile curving her lips.
The Witchcraft Sect is known for its extensive learning.
The purpose of this elaborate scheme becomes clear in the end.
To usurp the throne and replace it.
What a courageous person.
Wu Zhao gave a cold laugh.
Are you after Junwu?
She hasn't even settled accounts with that dog Tiandao yet, and someone actually wants to make a move before her?
dream!
"nature,"
"The problem has been solved at its root."
