CHAPTER 444: CHAPTER 444: SHOCKING YE XUAN’S BROTHERS

Even though they had seen many things in the last few months of the apocalypse, Ye Xuan’s brothers were still shocked silly when they saw a whole group of people disappear right in front of them.

They had been surprised when the Chu and Li family elders appeared before, and now a much bigger group had just disappeared.

It was obvious that the oath they had been asked to take had something to do with this.

They also wanted to know what was the place these people went to and what it looked like. Why did they have to keep it such a secret?

Ye Xuan seemed to understand their thoughts and said, "Once we go back to the sect, you can go and check the place out. Right now, it can’t be exposed, so you can’t just not appear when we go out."

"It’s okay boss. We understand." Murong Yi said.

The others also nodded their heads to show that they understood the situation. If they were needed to take an oath just to keep the secret, then it meant that exposing it could be fatal.

Therefore, they wouldn’t let their curiosity put one of them in danger.

"Okay, let’s go check out that village." Chu Miao said and held Ye Xuan’s hand before walking out.

As soon as they emerged, they found Jun Huang pacing around the array formation with a worried expression.

It looked like something was bothering him. As soon as he saw the group appear, he rushed in front of Ye Xuan and hurriedly asked, "Are we leaving now? I am worried about the president. If he doesn’t get the medicine on time, his time might expire." Jun Huang didn’t want Ye Xuan and the others to think that he was pushing them but he was really worried.

When he and his team left to look for that trial drug in City A, the doctors in the base had already tried everything but the president wasn’t getting better.

They had to use every available resource to just keep him alive. They had even put him on a life support machine to minimize the task his body had to take on to make sure his life force didn’t disappear faster.

He had thought that they would cultivate there for two days at most and leave, but they had ended up staying there for five days.

Now he was worried that the president might not be able to wait any longer.

When Chu Miao and Ye Xuan heard that, they stopped in their tracks and looked at each other.

They had planned to go into the village and cultivate some more to strengthen their souls further but it looked like they wouldn’t be able to.

Jun Huang hadn’t explained the president’s situation in detail before and they had only thought that he was down with cholera or another type of disease that simply lacked the right medication, which was why they needed the placebo.

But now it seemed that the situation was different from what they had thought.

They had to postpone their exploration of the village until they came back. But that also meant that the people in the soul ring would have to remain there for as long as they go to the base.

"What do you think?" Chu Miao turned to ask Ye Xuan.

"Let’s go save the president first. We can check out the village later. Even though it’s dangerous, not many people pass here, so not many would get hurt." Ye Xuan replied firmly.

He also didn’t want anything to happen to the president. The president was a man who loved the country and its people.

Ye Xuan had met him many times because when he was in the special forces, his unit had a unique status and even though for normal dangerous missions he reported to his immediate superior, for the highly secretive missions like the one he infiltrated into a military base in Country M alone and rescued Professor Song he had to report directly to the president.

He had a very good impression of the president and didn’t want him to die just like that.

Moreover, he was aware that there were issues with the leadership of the various military bases that had been turned into survivor bases.

At the moment, the power of the president was what was holding those people back, but if he fell, the remaining semblance of a country would completely collapse.

"Okay then. Let’s dismantle the array formations and leave. The materials can still be used again." Chu Miao wasn’t a wishy-washy person after all.

When she heard that they were leaving, she stopped thinking about the village and simply went to dismantle the array formation.

While she and Ye Xuan took down the arrays, she also sent her consciousness into the Soul Ring and talked to her grandfather.

She explained the situation with the president and asked them to cultivate in the space or do whatever else they wanted to.

They could harvest any ripe food or plant more, whatever they wanted to do.

Once they were ready to leave, the two teams went back to their respective cars which had been parked beside the road for five days and started to move again.

They passed by the entrance of the village and Chu Miao probed again. The attack this time was several times more aggressive than before but she was prepared and her soul wasn’t injured.

She however, used a significant amount of soul power to resist.

"It looks like the inside of the village is even more complicated than we thought. It’s better if we check it out when not in a hurry." She said, A statement that was heard by everyone in the other cars as their communication devices were turned on.

"A more aggressive attack?" Ye Xuan asked.

It was as if the two were connected through the soul. He was able to tell that she had received an attack to the soul without her saying anything.
