Su Wen came to Su Changging’s room.
‘When father and son met, they couldn’t help but sigh as they recounted the happenings on their end.
After exchanging information
Su Changqing rubbed his chin and said with a smile, “So the Demon Race isn’t calm either. This is a good thing.”
Su Wen shook his head and said, “However, the overall situation is still stable. The Demonic Tribe we’re facing now doesn’t have any major battles.”
At this point, Su Wen frowned and said, “The Zhou Country has actually been separated from the world by someone, and our dear Zhou Emperor suddenly wants to start a war. I’m afraid there’s something going on here.”
Su Changqing nodded and said, “That’s right, I think so too. It’s just that there’s no evidence. Furthermore, the encounter of the Zhou Country is indeed sad.”
“Then what do you want to do now?” Su Wen asked.
“I still don’t want to fight. If we fight rashly, I’m afraid there will be a huge problem!” Su Changqing said.
Su Wen pondered for a moment and said, “I don’t think so. Actually, it’s not impossible to fight!”
“Huh?” Su Changqing looked at Su Wen.
He did not understand why he was so confident.
“Xue Qianxun isn’t a true saint,” Su Changqing reminded in a low voice.
Su Wen smiled. “I know, but I went to Ni Hongxiao’s place just now. I saw some new things from her. It’s just that she didn’t tell you guys. I think it’s not a bad idea to fight… But before that, I want to return to Zhou Country to take a look!”
There were still some people Su Wen knew in Zhou Country!
Xie Yiyi’s mother, as well as He Ping’an were all still within Great Zhou.
He needed to understand Zhou Country’s situation as well.
As for what he saw from Ni Hongxiao, Su Wen could only conclude that it was terrifying when researchers went crazy.
In the capital of Great Zhou, the door to Su Wen’s residence opened and Su Wen stepped out.
He walked out lightly. The courtyard was already covered in weeds, and the abandoned Su Residence was still uninhabited even at this point.
Su Wen was in no hurry to leave. Instead, he quietly climbed up the roof and looked around.
The pedestrians on the road all had withered faces like zombies.
Su Wen narrowed his eyes as he sensed the surrounding Heaven Earth Origin Qi.
‘As expected, the Qi had already undergone some changes.
He thought for a moment and put on the Phantom Mask. Soon, a thin and withered face appeared.
He now looked no different from the pedestrians on the streets.
Su Wen found a loose robe and purposely covered the rest of his body.
Seeing that he could not see any flaws, he finally walked out.
On the streets, the commoners were still going through their lives.
Even though they now had those withered faces, they still needed to eat and drink.
‘They were not real zombies.
The reason why they looked so was because all their vitality had been drained.
Su Wen saw confusion and numbness in their eyes.
‘The commoners didn’t understand what was going on at all.
In just one night, the world they knew had changed.
As he walked, Su Wen came to the vermicelli stall once again.
At this moment, the lady boss was still going about with her daily task of frying vermicelli.
It was just that she no longer had that youthful vitality.
Her thin face was no longer beautiful, and her front was not as round and bountiful as before.

“Dear customer, do you want to eat vermicelli?” Her voice was hoarse and old.
Other than her eyes that still had a little sparkle in them, there was no trace of her former magnificence.
Su Wen clenched his fists involuntarily.
“Give me a bowl.”
He sat down again.
In the end, he still returned to this place even though he had once made up his mind not to come again.
However, this time, things remained the same, but the people had changed.
When the fried vermicelli was served, Su Wen realized that there was a lot of meat inside.
He muttered, “Boss, there wasn’t so much meat in the past, right?”
The female boss opened her mouth as a smile appeared on her withered face. “It’s been a long time since you last came, right? Pork isn’t worth much now. There’s a problem with our body. If we eat too little meat, we won’t have any strength. Naturally, we have to add more meat. Don’t worry, the price
won’t change.”
She thought that Su Wen was worried that the price would increase.
‘There were very few places for ordinary citizens to absorb and gain life force.
It was also thanks to the presence of Mountainous Rock Pigs that many people from Zhou Country were spared from death.
At this moment, Su Wen saw some people. They were all martial artists, but although their bodies had a rather powerful cultivation, their faces were still withered.
The sort of extraction of one’s life force was extremely draining for any living being.
Su Wen sat there and stared blankly at the bowl of fried vermicelli.
After a while, he sighed and threw a silver ingot on the table, before he stood up and left.
He did not even take a bite.
He walked around and arrived before Sun Wei’s house.
Bang bang bang bang!
Su Wen knocked on the door.
Not long after, the guard opened the door and asked, “Who are you looking for?”
“Tm looking for Sun Wei!” Su Wen said coldly.
“Name card?”
“Just tell him that the Su family is looking for him!”
The door immediately closed!
It didn’t take long before he heard hurried footsteps. When the door opened, Sun Wei appeared. However, when he saw the person in front of him, Sun Wei was a little disappointed.
“Bring me in!” Su Wen did not change his voice.
‘When he heard this voice, Sun Wei was pleasantly surprised and hurriedly invited Su Wen in.
In the Sun family’s study room, Su Wen sat on the main seat while Sun Wei bowed to the side. He wailed, “Young Master Su, you’ve also become like this? I thought you could escape this calamity!”
“Heh, what are you thinking about?” Su Wen’s face twisted as he returned to his original appearance.
Su Wen then asked, “What’s going on in this city?”
Sun Wei wailed, “We don’t know either. It’s just that one day, everyone suddenly became like this!”
“What about before? Was there anything unusual? Did you eat or drink anything? It’s impossible for everyone to become like this for no reason!”
Su Wen was certain of this. If it was someone within a small circle, it was possible. However, how could the entire Great Zhou country suddenly become like this for no reason?
Sun Wei thought for a moment and said, “Just a few months before the abnormality, the ruler-in-lieu of the country, the Second Prince, once gathered all the commoners in the capital to give out money and pork, as well as some money to everyone in the capital. In addition, we all drank the holy water
bestowed by His Majesty. After drinking it, everyone developed dark eye circles, but there was nothing wrong with their bodies.”
Su Wen narrowed his eyes. The Second Brother did this?
However, he was familiar with the Second Prince, so he naturally knew that he had no ability to do such a thing.
“Come here, let me examine your body.”
Before Sun Wei could resist, Su Wen placed his hand on his body.
Su Wen’s soul had undergone a mutation. Although his spiritual perception could not compare to Su Su’s, it was stronger than Zhang Qian’s.
In addition, Su Wen’s True Qi was the Great Solar Flames True Qi. It was vast and majestic. The moment it entered his body, Su Wen immediately sensed that there was something abnormal about Sun Wei’s heart!
At this moment, Die Yi suddenly followed the path of Su Wen’s True Qi and charged into Sun Wei’s body, straight into his heart. She punched the black bug before pressing her hands on its back!
Not long after, the black bug gradually turned red.
Die Yi then spoke, “Master, this bug is related to the caster. It wanted to send a message just now, but I interrupted it. Now, I’ve already controlled it!”
As the advancement of the Sorcerer God’s Golden Gu, Die Yi naturally had some methods to deal with these things..
