My Ability Pool is Superior

Chapter 410: Chapter 409: Undercurrents Surging

Lv Bai swaggered out of the meeting hall, and during this time, not a single person stood up to stop him.

It wasn’t clear if the elders had given some instructions, or if the City Council was considering the presence of the Monan People and temporarily decided not to pursue Lv Bai’s illegal activities.

In any case, his actions were not restricted in any way.

By the way, during their casual conversation earlier, Lv Bai happened to ask about the One-Eyed Dragon.

He learned that Lü Ziyi and Lv Qingyan, this pair of siblings, were not implicated by his situation. They didn’t even know that their big brother had left the refuge in the past few days.

This is quite normal.

In fact, the City Council itself wasn’t sure whether Lv Bai was the one who illegally sneaked in, he was merely a suspect. Naturally, they wouldn’t target the family of a suspect.

Now that Lv Bai was back, the situation had suddenly become so complicated that it was impossible for the siblings to suffer any adverse consequences.

"Better go back and take a look."

Lv Bai rubbed his chin, hesitated for a moment, but finally decided to go back and check on the sibling pair.

Even though he kept reminding himself that he was not truly the elder brother of this pair, having spent so much time together, it was certainly unrealistic to say he didn’t care at all.

Lv Bai walked home, and the scenes along the way were no different from usual.

The aftermath of the meeting needed time to spread. Until then, the residents of the Underground City would carry on with their lives as usual.

However, Lv Bai knew very well that this regular lifestyle of the Underground City residents was about to be disrupted soon.

From the perspective of the entirety of human civilization, Lv Bai believed his actions were not wrong. But undeniably, when refined to an individual level, such actions were unfair, even filled with a sort of grand narrative’s arrogance.

But that’s how the world is; absolute fairness doesn’t exist.

It’s like the trolley problem; there’s no fairness, only choices.

Lv Bai exhaled deeply, as if making some kind of promise.

"I’ll do my best to ensure more people survive."

...

Calmness is but a facade, in fact, even though the Monan People’s retaliation hasn’t appeared yet.

This refuge numbered nine is already in a state of surging undercurrents.

Habitable City.

In a room of a newly built Habitable Tower, the door slightly ajar.

A woman in a leopard print miniskirt sat cross-legged on the floor of the room, surrounded by visible scarlet ripples.

What is the essence of cultivation?

Whether outwardly or inwardly, it pertains to the use of spiritual energy.

The highest rate of return is naturally outward, using one’s own power to leverage the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi in special ways. The higher the cultivation, the more Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi one can manipulate.

Outward also includes body refining. Although ostensibly exploring one’s own body, it equally requires the aid of the Heaven and Earth Spiritual Qi.

But what if in a world devoid of spiritual energy?

Then clearly there remains only one route: delving inward into oneself.

Soul, flesh, and even bones.

Fortunately, this cultivator who smuggled out of the Death Arena hails from the Ghost King Sect.

Demonic Cultivators are quite adept in these techniques and don’t bear any psychological burden.

Since he entered the real world, he has been working covertly.

To date, he has refined the flesh of over a hundred people, surpassing the preliminary preparation requirements.

The woman in the leopard print miniskirt stood up, gathering the blood aura surrounding her.

"Next, I can be a bit bolder."

The woman pushed open the door, a smile on her crimson lips: "Let’s start with this building, it houses a total of 2,397 people?"

...

At the same moment.

A nightclub named "Tang Dynasty."

Pa~

The only LED strip light at the bar providing a light source was deliberately turned off.

Vice President Zheng adjusted the collar of his suit, then respectfully knelt down in front of Ruan Boyang.

"Reporting to my lord, we are incompetent and have not found Lv Bai’s whereabouts. I beg my lord to give us more time; we will surely capture Lv Bai and bring him to you."

Ruan Boyang lay reclining on the sofa with one leg crossed over the other, his expression tinged with some shadow.

As the Monan People, they possess special means of communication.

He was well aware of what Lv Bai had done after going to the surface.

However, he would not disclose anything that would tarnish the Monan People’s prestige. ƒree𝑤ebnσvel.com

Of course, he still did not know Lv Bai had already returned to the refuge, so he had no problem with the Can Society members failing to find Lv Bai, nor did he suspect Vice President Zheng of deceiving him.

Ruan Boyang said nonchalantly, "Then don’t search anymore. Now I’m giving you a new task."

Vice President Zheng’s head hung low: "Omnipotent lord, please issue your command, your loyal servant will ensure your divine will is realized at any cost."

Out of Ruan Boyang’s sight, a gleam of amusement flickered in Vice President Zheng’s eyes.

"Judgment Day is near. Mobilize all available forces to plunge this refuge into chaos."

After saying this, Ruan Boyang habitually made a promise: "Complete this task, and your crimes will be absolved. You may survive beyond Judgment Day."

Vice President Zheng immediately appeared extremely elated, as if excessively jubilant in a crazed manner, akin to someone who just learned of his own academic success, much like Fan Jin.

"The entire Can Society will unconditionally follow your will."

...

"Big brother, you’re back!"

Lv Qingyan, upon seeing Lv Bai, lunged at him, hanging onto him directly: "What were you doing these past two days? Grandpa Pu said you were on a secret mission. You have no idea how worried I was about you."

Lv Bai lifted the kid off himself, placing him on the sofa: "If they said it was a secret mission, then why are you asking?"

"I’m just curious."

Lv Qingyan looked around shiftily, made sure his sister was not home, and then whispered: "Big brother, let me tell you something. Our sister might actually be in a relationship."

"You didn’t know because you weren’t home these past two days. Recently, she’s been coming home very late. Last night, I saw with my own eyes a blond guy dropping her off at the door. She probably thought I was asleep, but I wasn’t. How could I sleep so early?"

"That’s quite normal."

Lv Bai stretched lazily, then turned and lay down beside Lv Qingyan.

In the refuge era, there’s no such thing as early dating. To him, it’s not surprising that Lü Ziyi at this age met someone she likes.

Lv Qingyan was about to say something else when there suddenly was a knock on the door. The kid’s attention immediately shifted as he eagerly ran over to open it.

Pu Xueli stood in the doorway, able to see Lv Bai lying on the living room sofa.

His face bore an unmistakable concern as he quickly approached Lv Bai: "I just received the news; is it true?"

As the principal of the Death Battle Campus, he certainly had the authority to know the truth.

To be precise, it would be strange if he hadn’t attended the meeting to listen in.
