Chapter 2279 The Tense Capital City

2279 The Tense Capital City

Lin Mu was pleased by the result as he had been fully expecting for the Death Qi to take much longer than this.

"Four months is good. It'll certainly give us the right amount of time to prepare, I suppose." Lin Mu spoke.

"If all goes well and no problematic changes happen, this does look to be in our favor." Ziran nodded. "I suppose we should update the others on this too then." Lin Mu said before quickly sending out a message through the communication jade slip.

It was giving everyone a timeline to work with and allow them to look forward to the day.

Lin Mu and Lady Kang also returned to their rooms, as there wasn't much for them to do here.

~SHUA~

Lin Mu appeared in the Sleepscape and checked on the condition of Ashy.

"She's still asleep." Lin Mu observed the little bird.

~hiss~

"She hasn't moved much either." Xiao Yin who was in the nest next to it spoke. "Yeah, she usually moves around and makes sounds but she hasn't at all." Xiao Yang chimed in.

"Hmm..." Lin Mu narrowed his eyes and scanned Ashy's body with his Immortal sense, but didn't find any problems with her. "Looks like its just the fatigue from before. I suppose doing that when she isn't in the Immortal realm was a bit too straining on her." He reckoned.

While no damage was caused to Ashy, she was still rendered into a dormant state.

And since Xukong had assured Lin Mu that the bird would be fine, Lin Mu wasn't as worried about her. He was only wondering when she would be waking up and what changes would take place for her.

"No unusual activities in all the districts in the southern division!" One of the Formation masters reported.

"Two commoners were caught trying to leave their houses in the sixth commoner district in the Eastern division!" another formation master sitting a bit far from him said.

"A stray spirit beast was caught on the roof of the Little Leaf Merchant Hall in the Western Division." The third formation master reported.

"Nothing to report in the Northern Division." The Fourth and final report was given.

"Hmm... Deal with all of them according to the protocol. We cannot afford even a single mistake." Head Formation Master Suzi stated firmly. "Yes!" All the formation masters replied in unison.

The hall went silent for a few minutes after this until one of the formation masters stood up.

"Report! Fifteen flying Immortal ships have been detected!" Hearing this, the Head Formation Master's eyes went wide as he quickly turned to look at the formation screen that had been enlarged. The screen showed a dark background ,and hundreds of stars could be seen on it along with a swathe of asteroids that floated around it. Fifteen small dots could also be seen in the distance, that were slowly getting larger by the second.

"Arm the cannons." Head Formation Master Suzi ordered.

~SHUA~

Upon his command, the formation masters all spurred into action as the Capital City's grand Array lit up in a flaming red color.

~HONGLONG~

Tens of illusory cannons appeared in the sky and pointed up into nothingness.

The soldiers and guards below all gulped in nervousness seeing this and gripped their weapons tightly for whatever was about to come.
