A Little Worried, but not Much

This farce had been going on for too long. Qi Yuan realized he shouldn't have expected Lv Cheng to solve the problem, after all Lv Cheng was just a lucky goose. He had no choice but to reluctantly speak up, "Can't you see she's unwilling? Do you want me to call the nearby patrol officers over?"

The younger brothers looked towards their boss. Seeing his ferocious expression, as if he was about to start a fight, they unanimously swarmed over. Some covered his mouth, some hugged his arms, and some clung to his legs.

"Boss, forget it. There are plenty more fish in the sea."

"That's right boss, no need to hang yourself on one tree."

"Look closely, she's nothing special anyway."

The boss was dragged several meters away by his brothers before he could break free of their restraint.

"What are you guys doing? I didn't even get to say anything yet."

The bald man shouted from several meters away, "Little brother, you're so handsome yet refrain from wrongdoing. What right do I have with this bear face of mine to steal and cheat? Boss, after today I will wash my hands of this."

After listening, the younger brothers' eyes brimmed with tears. This hard truth had stabbed their hearts.

"Boss, we will too."

"Alright, we are brothers for life."

The group of grown men hugged each other tightly and slowly made their way towards the nearby police station, sobbing.

Qi Yuan only felt a buzzing in his brain. Was there no normal person left in this world? He raised his hand to hold his forehead, pressing down the jumping vein.

A phone ring suddenly sounded, it was his cell phone. An unknown number. Qi Yuan answered the call.

"This is Zhuang Heng from the 4th patrol team. I'm grateful for your help back in Nan Wu Orphanage's convergence zone earlier."

It was the patrol officer who took him and Miao Miao Rabbit along. Thinking of this, Qi Yuan was overjoyed.

Was the official dad finally going to recruit him?

"It was nothing, did you have something else to say?"

Zhuang Heng's voice was somewhat distorted over the phone, but it didn't prevent Qi Yuan from hearing his raised pitch.

"You should know there's a convergence zone over Qu Pan 2nd Elementary School. I won't disturb you further then."

After finishing, Zhuang Heng didn't give Qi Yuan a chance to ask questions before directly hanging up the call.

Qi Yuan put down his phone and opened the Qu Pan City app map, where Qu Pan 2nd Elementary was marked in red.

"What's going on?"

Lv Cheng leaned over and asked with concern after seeing Qi Yuan's abnormal expression.

"A convergence zone appeared at my brother's school. I need to rush over now."

"Your brother is my brother. I'll come with you."

Thanks a lot. As if this kind of brother was needed. Lv Cheng's joke only added to his already lacking worries.

Zhuang Heng had notified very promptly, informing him as soon as the convergence zone appeared.

The Qu Pan City map showed the initial fusion was estimated to end after 25 minutes.

For a place like school that gathered large amounts of the motherland's flowers, the patrol bureau would definitely be present within a 10 minute walk.

That meant as long as the children listened to their teachers' instructions and quietly waited in the classrooms, the patrol team would arrive in 10 minutes to bring them to the gym for centralized protection.

Within 10 minutes, even if it fused to the most dangerous forest, they would be basically safe unless extremely unlucky to appear in a marsh miasma or other extreme environments.

Whether the children would listen to their teacher or not?

He didn't dare confirm for others, but his gutless little brother would definitely obey.

He sent the message to his mother, telling her he would go find his brother and that his return time was uncertain.

After the message was sent, he received one from his brother in the family group. Looks like he had secretly brought his phone to school again.

[Foolish Eu-dou-dou: Voice message]

The dozens of seconds long voice message took several rounds to transcribe into text.

[Bro, the teacher said there are monsters outside and won't let us out. Fatty Qiao said his brother will come save him, and told me to ask him to take me along too. I said my brother is the best under the heavens, definitely more awesome than your brother. Bro, you'll come save me right? I don't want to stay here.]

[Mom: When did you sneakily take the phone again?]

[Mom: @Yuan, I received the message.]

I see, so he was the most anxious one in the family after all.

Lv Cheng watched as Qi Yuan seemed to be chatting and sending messages. Then after receiving the reply message, his furrowed brows relaxed. He didn't look too worried about the brother with the dangerous threat to his life.

If the relationship was bad, he wouldn't have worried in the first place...

It must be that right?

——The legendary guards who protect their master in the shadows!

Boss Yuan sent a message to his guards asking about his brother's circumstances. The guards replied "Young master, please be at ease. Second young master currently has no danger to his life."

So after Boss Yuan received the message, he was no longer worried about his brother's safety.

Lv Cheng nodded, reviewing it again for any flaws, and affirmed his guess.

Now everything made sense.

He moved his gaze back to Qi Yuan, and suddenly discovered a blind spot.

The younger brother had guards, so what about Qi Yuan...

Lv Cheng thought back to the reckless actions he had committed towards him before.

Old man, you might as well take on another disciple...

Qu Pan 2nd Elementary wasn't too near or far from them. It would take around 10 minutes by taxi.

The patrol team had already entered the convergence zone. A group of parents who had rushed over after receiving the news were gathered at the gates.

The city broadcaster's host was also recording a show at the gates, chatting animatedly into the camera lens.

Suddenly, cheers erupted from the parent group as over a dozen middle-aged uncles and aunties were surrounded. They raised their arms to gesture for everyone to quiet down.

"We're parents too. We completely understand how you feel. I, Wang whoever can save, will definitely save. First, let us in. The less delay, the more children we can save."

"That's right, don't block the way. Let them in."

"Go for it. You are the heroes!"

Amidst the shouts, the crowd surged, splitting open a small path.

They quickly passed through, entering the convergence zone.

The scattered broadcasters who had rushed over with kind intentions, as well as ability users who wanted to improve their skills through real combat chose to climb over the walls after seeing people force their way through the front gate.

Qi Yuan and Lv Cheng likewise chose to climb over.

After examining their ability user IDs and returning them, the patrol officer secretly grumbled to himself. What was wrong with being surrounded and welcomed in like a hero? Why were they all sneaking in like thieves?

This was Qi Yuan's first time passing through the convergence zone's fog.

His vision was filled with vast white mist, faintly making out the shadow outlines of large buildings in the distance.

The outlines of those large buildings were very different from Qu Pan 2nd Elementary.

Seeing this, Qi Yuan couldn't help but furrow his brows. Big changes meant all his memories of the route were useless. Other than luck, there was no way to find his younger brother in a short amount of time.

Passing through the mist, what entered their vision was a memorial archway. A few large words were written on it in an unknown language.

Under the gray skies, the rows of paper lanterns hung high didn't sway at all. A large stone tablet stood at the street entrance while wooden cargo trucks were randomly parked on the street.

The buildings lining the streets had green roofs and red walls. There were crude tea houses, meat stands and all kinds of small shops set up along the streets. Tall shop banners flapped in the wind, clearly resembling——

A large movie set...

Street lamps, trash cans, neatly trimmed bushes appeared at measured intervals in vacant corners.

Additionally, the buildings lining the streets were apparently made of cement at the base, had glass for windows, then added some flying eaves and curled corners, wood carvings and window grilles upwards.

Through the windows on the first floor, rows of student desks could vaguely be seen.

The Day I Died, the Whole Sect Watched My Senior Sister Go on a Rampage

ive and Ruthless] Before his transmigration, Ye Xuan was playing a game called "Severing Emotions to Attain the Dao." The game's core wasn't about leveling up by fighting monsters, but about conquering various "bad women" with wicked personalities and cold, fickle natures. There was only one method to conquer them: stay unwaveringly by their side, then die at a critical moment, driving them to madness after losing the protagonist. The higher their level of regret, the higher the player's score. To dominate the server, Ye Xuan conquered all the bad women. In the early stages, he showered them with boundless tenderness, only to choose to sacrifice himself for them later, making them weep bitterly and drown in regret. Among them were: Xia Lengyue, the unfaithful immortal wife who chased after powerful men and discarded her husband like trash. Ye Qingcheng, the Demonic Venerable of the Joyous Union Sect, who appeared pure and innocent but was, in reality, promiscuous. Wu Lingxiao, the Empress of the Great Xia Dynasty, who lusted after men and loved maintaining a harem. Bai Qiangu of the Endless Demonic Sect: a bloodthirsty mass murderer. However, when the protagonist transmigrated into the game world, he made a horrifying discovery. Eight hundred years had already passed. The bad women he had conquered had now each become deities and revered ancestors. Faced with the endless stream of toxic women coming for him, Ye Xuan could only rely on his god-tier acting skills to carve a path of survival through this world of treacherous women.
