Chapter 1202 - 1202 61 The Change at Zichen Lake Brothers

Chapter 1202: Chapter 61: The Change at Zichen Lake [Brothers, thanks for waiting.]_3 Chapter 1202: Chapter 61: The Change at Zichen Lake [Brothers, thanks for waiting.]_3 Fei Xinyu’s expression momentarily darkened as he lowered his head, “Yes, I was wrong.”

“Let’s do it this way!”

Wang Jian hammered down the decision: “The military will spare no expense to handle this!”

“Yes.”

…

Throughout Great Qin, all roads were filled with people on the move.

Dragging family along.

Faces showed sorrow, reflection, gratitude, relief from leaving their old homes, and boundless hopes for their future lives.

As for the sadness of leaving their hometown, it wasn’t prominent on these people’s faces.

After all… life at home, after losing the pillar of the family, was truly hard.

While their men were alive, relying on relatives and friends, the news of husbands killed in battle had prompted an uncharacteristic behavior – they started to mercilessly exploit bereaved families.

Started to fleece their own families.

Taking advantage of any situation.

Even completely tearing away the moral bottom line.

Leading to outright plundering.

After decades of despair in the human world, they never expected that at this age, they would finally see the first light of hope in their lives.

They saw justice in this world.

Those people got the fate they deserved.

White-haired and despondent, a woman clutched her husband’s spirit tablet, leading her family toward General City.

“You were right… in choosing whom to follow back then.”

Of course, there were countless others who didn’t want to relocate.

Including those who had willingly remarried and were living well.

They were not forced.

The relocation of tens of millions affected the whole of Qin country.

For a time, the focus of the entire Qin country was on this movement.

…

Bai Yihwen’s report quickly landed before the Dark Division Minister, Bu Changkong.

“Zichen Lake? Devil’s fog?”

Bu Changkong was momentarily stunned.

Looking at the report signed personally by Bai Yihwen, Bu Changkong furrowed his brow.

“Minister, could it be false? Bai Yihwen is a remnant of Great Yan, a traitor who has rebelled again and again, reporting such absurd and fantastical matters, along with heretical conjectures… it must be to fool us, right?”

Someone next to him said.

Bu Changkong didn’t speak, his gaze intensely focused on the report.

Not blinking.

After a long while, he said indifferently, “Bai Yihwen… would not do such a foolish thing.”

“Bai Yihwen, after the downfall of Great Yan, has always committed to reviving the nation. Now that the whole region has been pacified, and many of the former Yan State experts have also laid down their arms, Bai Yihwen has never given up and continued to pit his wits against us vividly, definitely a remarkable person of this generation.”

“Such a person would not make such an absurd joke.”

Bu Changkong spoke softly, “Besides, even if it is false, what’s the harm in taking a look? If it is true and we don’t act immediately, it might be a huge disaster!”

“The minister is right.”

“We leave immediately.”

“Yes.”

“Report back immediately if there’s any update!”

“Yes.”

…

By the shore of Zichen Lake.

The sun was just rising.

Bai Yihwen, watching the lake’s surface clear as a mirror, vast and broad, his brow deeply furrowed.

As dawn broke, the Devil’s fog had disappeared.

It only appeared at night.

But Bai Yihwen was alarmed by the sight of a tree branch in front of him, his face turning pale, drained of all color.

His whole body began to tremble.

This branch had been placed by him.

At the time, it was fifteen zhang from the shore of Zichen Lake.

Inserted by his own hand.

And from night till dawn, Bai Yihwen hadn’t moved.

But now… the branch was only fourteen and a half zhang from the shore of Zichen Lake!

Half a zhang had vanished.

One and a half meters of land had disappeared, turned into vast lake water.

Bai Yihwen felt an icy chill.

Although it was only one and a half meters.

How large was the entire Zichen Lake?

If each side has one and a half meters less, how much would be lost altogether?

Moreover, where did this one and a half meters of land go to?

Clearly, the shore was still there!

“This might well be… a catastrophe sweeping across the continent.”

Bai Yihwen, his face ashen, muttered, “If I’m not wrong… this could be a calamity that wipes out all of humanity, or maybe every living being on the continent!”

“People nearby tried to persuade him, “My lord, the report has been sent all night, and Qin country’s experts may arrive here soon… It’s too dangerous, please leave first.”

“This issue… involves too much, I really may not be able to leave.”

Bai Yihwen shook his head with detachment, “You don’t need to worry. For such a matter… it’s likely the whole continent will need to join hands. At a time like this, they won’t harm me.”

“But…”

“Don’t worry,” Bai Yihwen decisively said.

“Yes.”

Everyone present was a loyal subordinate of Bai Yihwen, faithful and true. Since Bai Yihwen chose not to leave, they too stayed put.

If worse came to worst, they would die alongside their lord.

…

“I need to relieve myself.”

Bai Yihwen’s face displayed a look of shame, his teeth clenched so tight that his face turned red.

The other dozen or so people wore puzzled expressions.

Two of them approached and pushed the wheelchair towards a secluded spot.

Behind a large rock, the pair pushing the wheelchair started to swiftly clear the ground and grass in front of them, flattening out an incline that spanned dozens of zhang.

Bai Yihwen, biting his teeth, watched his subordinates with an angry and humiliated gaze.

His eyes flickered with a feeling worse than death!

Once the slide was ready,

The two subordinates came to the back of the wheelchair, whispering, “…my lord?”

“Remove it.”
