Chapter 551 w.a.n.g Family’s Decision!
The next day, everyone’s emotions got better, and the exhaustion on their bodies subsided a little.
Early in the morning, sunlight scattered on the earth. A thin mist floated above the ruins of Donghai.
Many people were already getting busy.
Governor Jiang and the higher authorities of Donghai had woken up at 4 am. They were running everywhere and organizing all the work.
General Chen and the military patrolled around Donghai to maintain order.
This was a fragile moment. It was possible that some people would snap under the pressure and commit illogical acts in this situation.
Yesterday at midnight, the reinforcements from the different cities had arrived. They included medical staff, alchemists, runemasters, and many more. They had already started working.
There were also architects, city planners, designers, railway engineers, and other top talents from various fields sent from all around the country.
It was hard to imagine that these many people had gathered in Donghai in a single night. Besides, more talents would arrive continuously to contribute their effort in rebuilding Donghai.
w.a.n.g Teng had noticed the commotion yesterday night, but it had nothing to do with him, so he cultivated in peace. He disregarded what was happening around him.
The people around him started waking up one by one.
The first thing Lin Chuhan did when she opened her eyes was to look at w.a.n.g Teng. He was sitting on a huge rock and breathing in the Force from heaven and earth as he cultivated. Thick Force had formed a faint mist around his body, making the morning glow look holy.
The other members of the w.a.n.g family woke up. Soon, they also noticed w.a.n.g Teng. They were astounded.
Was this the cultivation of a martial warrior?
Amazing!
They had a sudden thought. From the looks of it, w.a.n.g Teng had been cultivating the entire night.
He was indeed hardworking!
Li Xiumei felt her heart hurting. This was her son, so she couldn’t bear to see him suffer.
What if his legs turned numb after sitting the entire night?
On the other hand, Grandpa w.a.n.g and w.a.n.g Shengguo felt relieved. Even with his achievements, w.a.n.g Teng wasn’t arrogant and conceited. He continued to cultivate hard. As expected of their child…
At the same time, w.a.n.g Teng sensed that everyone was awake. He completed his last round of Force circulation before opening his eyes. A sharp glint shot out of his eyes, but it disappeared instantly.
Everyone was surprised as they evaded his gaze.
w.a.n.g Teng’s gaze wasn’t scary. They just couldn’t stare directly at the sharp light leftover from his cultivation.
“Everyone is awake.” w.a.n.g Teng smiled.
“We’ve been up for a long time. We were waiting for you,” Lin Chuhan said.
w.a.n.g Teng was speechless. He didn’t sleep the entire night, but he became the last person to wake up. Who could he complain to? In his heart, he grumbled that ladies were hard to interact with…
Then, a tinge of helplessness appeared on his face. Silence meant consent. He agreed with Lin Chuhan silently. He wasn’t stupid, so he wouldn’t reason with a lady.
After everyone finished their breakfast, w.a.n.g Teng and Grandpa w.a.n.g gathered together to discuss the future development of the w.a.n.g family and their future home.
“What does everyone think? Tell me your thoughts?” Grandpa w.a.n.g looked around and asked.
They all glanced at w.a.n.g Teng unconsciously.
“I feel that Donghai is very dangerous now, so we should relocate. I can bring my family along. They will definitely listen to the w.a.n.g family,” w.a.n.g Teng’s oldest aunt, Zhao Huili, suddenly said. Everyone looked at her with a hint of helplessness on their faces. Zhao Huili had no bad intentions, but her foresight was a little shallow. If things were that simple, they wouldn’t need to gather and discuss.
“Shut up. Don’t say anything if you don’t know anything.” w.a.n.g Shenghong glared at his wife.
Zhao Huili felt a little wronged. She wanted to refute.
Grandpa w.a.n.g opened his mouth at this moment. He waved his hand and said, “It’s alright. Huili is just stating our last resort.”
“See, Father says I’m right.” Zhao Huili got proud in an instant.
“Alright, alright, stop talking,” w.a.n.g Shenghong said impatiently. “You…” Zhao Huili was furious. She still wanted to offer a retort.
“Mom, let’s listen to what w.a.n.g Teng has to say,” w.a.n.g Yanan pulled her hand and said.
Zhao Huili glanced at w.a.n.g Teng and turned quiet immediately.
When they were hiding in the underground shelter, she had personally witnessed how powerful w.a.n.g Teng was. You could say that in the entire w.a.n.g family, the only person she was more fearful and had more respect for than Grandpa w.a.n.g was w.a.n.g Teng. w.a.n.g Teng smiled. “Actually, Aunt is right…”
Zhao Huili puffed up her chest when she heard w.a.n.g Teng agreeing with her viewpoint. She snorted at w.a.n.g Shenghong. Everyone was shocked. “Little Teng…” w.a.n.g Shenghong asked curiously. “Uncle, don’t worry. I’m not done yet. Moving away is a good choice, but that’s only for other people. I feel that for the w.a.n.g family, staying in Donghai is the wisest option,” w.a.n.g Teng said confidently. “Oh, why do you think so?” Grandpa w.a.n.g smiled and asked.
“Grandpa, you’re testing me, aren’t you?” w.a.n.g Teng laughed. He didn’t probe further and continued, “Y’all are not martial warriors, so you don’t know some insider information…” The family was startled by his words. They glanced at one another.
“Actually, the world isn’t as safe as what everyone thinks, whichever corner you’re at. The star beasts riot is one, but there are other reasons too. These reasons are worse than the star beasts,” w.a.n.g Teng said.
“What?!” Everyone was flabbergasted, their faces turning pale. What reason was more terrifying than the sea beasts riot?
“Son, what are they? Can you tell us?” w.a.n.g Shengguo asked.
“I can talk about it, but there are many taboos…” w.a.n.g Teng hesitated. In the end, he still acted on his own accord and briefly told his family about the dark apparitions.
However, he used voice transmission to transmit his voice into their ears.
The w.a.n.g family was appalled when they heard this. w.a.n.g Teng didn’t explain in detail, but the tip of the iceberg he revealed was enough to frighten them.
How did the world become so dangerous?
They used to live in a peaceful environment, so these disasters were a bit hard to imagine. “So, staying in Donghai is the best option. My foundation is here. I can protect you to the best of my ability here. If anything happens in Donghai and I’m not around, the higher authorities of Donghai will offer protection to the w.a.n.g family immediately. In other countries, we won’t be able to receive similar treatment,” w.a.n.g Teng said slowly.
Everyone turned silent.
After some time, Grandpa w.a.n.g heaved a long sigh and said, “Little Teng is right. This is what I wanted to say to you. Rather than finding an unfamiliar place and pa.s.sing our safety to unfamiliar people, we should stay in our homeland and go through thick and thin with it.”
