Quick Transmigration: Still Life Fairy

Chapter 324 The Genius Senior Brother's Storage Bag

Zhengze stared blankly at the half lotus in his hand, completely bewildered. Not only him, but the other disciples beside him were also startled. Before one of them could react, he had already cast a spell. The tiger didn't even turn its head, but with a fierce sweep of its long tail, it easily blocked the incoming flying sword. Its soft tail wrapped around the sword and casually flicked it to the side, sending the sword completely embedded in the trees not far away.

After doing all that, the big tiger stretched and yawned: "Ah~ That feels good~ I'll just eat half of it, you can take the rest back."

It casually uttered a sentence, then turned around and calmly left amidst the bewildered gazes of the human cultivators.

The leaders had all left, and the other demons who had stopped attacking the moment the tiger appeared naturally didn't stay either. They watched the group of human cultivators warily, slowly retreating until they felt they had reached a safe distance before turning around. In a few leaps, tens of thousands of demons disappeared into the forest.

Only then did those mortals with strong wills, who had not been knocked unconscious by the tiger's earth-shattering roar, finally faint in relief.

Zhengze, holding the half lotus flower in his hand, should have been filled with anger at being robbed, but instead, he inappropriately felt a mixture of amusement and exasperation.

"Is it over just like that?" Yu Liu was a little incredulous. The storage bag, which symbolized the upper body, twisted left and right, as if it were looking around.

"Yes. It's over."

Amused by Yu Liu's adorable reaction, Li Qingran slightly curled the corners of her lips, her voice as indifferent as ever.

"This is far too hasty!"

Yu Liu muttered something to herself.

Li Qingran chuckled again, reached out and grabbed the storage bag sitting on the little white cloud, stuffing it back into his arms.

"Stay put!"

His tone was unusually stern.

Yu Liu felt guilty and dared not move. Since Zheng Ze was also safe, she stopped struggling, put away Little White Cloud, and nestled peacefully in Li Qingran's arms.

"Junior brother, are you alright?"

Li Qingran walked over to Zhengze and asked with a hint of concern.

"N-nothing." Zhengze put away the half lotus in his hand. This result was much better than he had expected, so he didn't feel sad at all. Apart from the wounds on his body, he seemed to be in good spirits.

The other disciples began cleaning up the battlefield. The corpses of these monsters had unexpected effects when used for cooking. In addition, the demon cores and scales from the monsters were also quite useful. Everyone tacitly stuffed the corpses into their storage bags.

After the battlefield was cleaned up, apart from the splattered blood, it was virtually impossible to tell that a battle had just taken place.

Everyone tacitly gathered together, and Kunjue, on behalf of everyone, woke up the group of unconscious mortals.

"Ah—a monster—"

"Wow, are you cultivators?"

"You guys are amazing! Can I cultivate immortality?"

"..."

No one was seriously injured. Upon waking up, they immediately recalled what had happened. After that, the scene became chaotic. These people probably knew that the group of cultivators in front of them would not harm them. They crowded around the disciples, reaching out to grab their clothes and asking all sorts of questions.

People really can't just attack these people, so they can only deal with them with great difficulty.

Afterwards, naturally, the disciples who had just come down from the mountain were invited to the homes of the enthusiastic villagers and travelers, who served them fine wine and food.

Meanwhile, the disciples, who had been isolated from the world for 30 years and knew nothing about the outside world, did not notice that a large number of the travelers mixed in with the villagers had taken out a square metal object and pointed it at them. Because they did not sense any danger, they did not pay any attention.

Earlier during the battle, someone had pulled out this square piece of metal and pointed it at them. They initially thought the metal might have some purpose, but later found that it didn't seem to help them in the battle, so they didn't pay much attention to it. They didn't care then, and they cared even less now, which led to all the tourists who came to this small village showing satisfied smiles.

They quickly found a small corner, connected to the internet, quickly organized their thoughts, briefly described what had happened, and then posted the video they had filmed online.

Some of these videos only captured a short clip, and some didn't even show the battle scene. But there were always a few that slipped through the net, stubbornly filming the entire battle even when the owner was unconscious. When these videos were first posted online, netizens might have just been praising the special effects. But as more and more videos appeared, some clear and some blurry, people gradually began to believe that these weren't special effects, but that there were real monsters and immortals! Furthermore, many people recognized the people appearing in the videos as their friends and family, which further increased the credibility of the videos.

After that, the friends and family of those who posted the videos started calling them to verify their authenticity. Once they received positive feedback, the matter began to reach its real climax.

Because it wasn't taken seriously at first, by the time the matter really escalated, the national cybersecurity department had completely lost control of the situation. The existence of "cultivating immortality" became a hot topic online, drawing increasing attention and prompting more and more people to join the discussion.

Completely unexpectedly, this time they actually managed to persuade the cultivators who had closed their mountain gates and ignored the outside world. Leaders at all levels of the Chinese nation quickly convened a meeting, issued a series of orders, and implemented them swiftly.

Another theory has emerged online: these people aren't cultivators; they are superhumans, individuals with special abilities developed through the use of high-tech gene-altering drugs. Furthermore, these individuals all belong to special national departments, normally responsible for clandestine missions, and were only exposed this time due to unforeseen circumstances.

The explanation, though far-fetched, at least appeased many netizens. As for those who were present at the scene, they completely disbelieved the claim. Don't treat them like fools; those who had actually interacted with this group of cultivators could easily see that they knew nothing about the outside world. How could they possibly be from a special national department?

After the situation online was brought under control, the government began to actually send people to contact these cultivators. They did not expect to be able to persuade these people to come out of seclusion. At first, they were naturally a little at a loss, but knowing that these people existed, they had already made all the necessary preparations.
