The sudden collapse of the underground cave caused the collapse of countless buildings in Jiangzhou City, especially the streets near the center, which were all turned into ruins.
Even the streets farther away have been affected by the slope of the ground, and only some pavilions with better quality are still strong.
The streets were full of fighting warriors and scavengers, but as an endless stream of scavengers emerged from the caves, the warrior team began to retreat, and the center of Jiangzhou City was completely occupied by scavengers.
In a certain martial arts gym near the center of Jiangzhou.
The pale Jiang Xuan hid in the corner of a closet, holding her breath tightly, not daring to make the slightest sound.
Just inside the martial arts hall, there were dozens of scantily clad scavengers rummaging through boxes and cabinets.
Suddenly, Jiang Xuan heard footsteps and someone broke into the locker room.
She covered her mouth, and the hair on her forehead stuck together because of the cold sweat.
Although Jiang Xuan has good talent, has been practicing hard during this period, and has no shortage of resources with the help of Shen Qian, her foundation is too poor after all. To this day, she has only just broken through to the seventh level of a beginner warrior.
She could barely cope with the dozens of scavengers who broke into the martial arts gym, but there were hundreds of scavengers wandering on the streets outside.
Just a few minutes ago, she watched helplessly on the second floor as the owner of the martial arts gym opposite, a strong man who had reached the early stage of a high-level warrior, was submerged in the siege of scavengers.
Warriors who have never been to the mountains and seas are equally vulnerable to the tactics of a sea of people.
What's more, there are also experts among the scavengers. Jiang Xuan saw with her own eyes at least dozens of figures flying out of the cave.
Among the scavengers, there are also strong men from the mountain and sea realm!
This discovery almost overturned Jiang Xuan’s knowledge.
Ta! Ta! Ta!
The footsteps were getting closer and closer, followed by the violent sound of the cabinet door being opened next to her. Jiang Xuan bit her lip, and an emerald-green dagger quietly appeared in her hand.
Looking at the dagger in her hand, Jiang Xuan dispelled some tension for no reason.
This is the gift Shen Qian brought to her last time he came to the martial arts hall, a B-level psychic dagger.
With this dagger, Jiang Xuan can even compete with the early Chinese warriors.
It's just that Jiang Xuan has never used this dagger as a weapon. If it were not for the life and death crisis at this time, Jiang Xuan would not even want to let it be stained with any dirt.
Tightening the dagger in her hand, Jiang Xuan's expression became firm. As the cabinet door in front of her was violently opened, when the ferocious face appeared in sight, Jiang Xuan stabbed the dagger out.<
/p>
Just because of panic, the position of the dagger was a little crooked. It did not penetrate the throat of the scavenger in front of him, but it was pierced into the opponent's shoulder.
The B-class dagger, which was as sharp as clay, pierced the opponent's shoulder blade, causing the scavenger in front of him to let out a scream.
Jiang Xuan quickly pulled out the dagger and struck again, finally killing the scavenger in front of her. However, the scream of the scavenger had already alerted other scavengers in the martial arts hall.
As chaotic footsteps and shouts gathered, Jiang Xuan mustered up her courage, kicked open the door of the locker room, and rushed into the corridor.
"Ah!"
Facing dozens of scavengers, Jiang Xuan screamed and waved the dagger wildly in her hand. In an instant, blood spattered and the scavengers fell one after another.
After an unknown amount of time, the girl, whose body was covered in blood, finally came to her senses after stabbing the last person to death. She was sitting in a pool of blood, breathing heavily, surrounded by broken corpses.
After a long time, the girl who had regained some strength stood up holding on to the wall. Just as she was about to walk upstairs, the door of the martial arts hall was pushed open.
The girl whose vitality had been exhausted became desperate. She held the dagger in both hands and leaned against the wall, with a slightly thoughtful look on her lowered face.
The venue fell silent, and the expected scene of a large number of scavengers did not appear. Sensing something was wrong, Jiang Xuan raised her head and saw a young man standing at the entrance of the venue.
The backlight shone from his back, and the familiar face seemed to be the most beautiful oil painting in the world, fixed in the girl's heart.
"Shen Qian..."
The girl yelled in confusion, and then she suddenly woke up. She covered her mouth, and tears of surprise burst out.
Bang bang bang!
Shen Qian clapped his hands and walked over, glanced at the corpses everywhere, and said with a smile: "That's right, I wasn't as ruthless as you when I was a first-time warrior."
The girl who finally confirmed that what she saw was not an illusion trembled and threw herself into the young man's arms, which made the young man grin.
"Slow down, slow down, you still have a knife in your hand..."
Jiang Xuan woke up, her pretty face turned red, and she quickly put away the dagger in her hand.
"Ah!"
Then the girl seemed to remember something again and jumped away in fright. She panicked and wiped the blood stained on Shen Qian's suit with her hands.
"I'm sorry, I..."
"Stop wiping, I don't mind."
Shen Qian hugged Jiang Xuan into his arms again.
Jiang Xuan settled down and remained obediently motionless, letting Shen Qian hold her.
"Why are you here?"
After a long time, Jiang Xuan, who was in a stable mood, raised her head and finally remembered to ask.
"Of course I'm here to find you, but after all the employees at your martial arts gym have run away, why are you still here alone?"
Shen Qianqidao.
With his mental power, he discovered Jiang Xuan's existence several kilometers away. He really didn't expect that Jiang Xuan was still hiding in the martial arts hall.
There was clearly a gap between the collapse of the hole and the appearance of the scavengers. This behavior seems stupid.
According to the city's laws, novice warriors can take refuge on their own, but only intermediate warriors and above have the obligation to defend themselves when encountering external aggression.
"This is your martial arts gym, I can't run away..." Jiang Xuan said softly.
"You are stupid. How much is a martial arts gym worth? Besides, are you willing to risk your life for money?" Shen Qian felt helpless.
"I...I didn't know there would be so many scavengers..."
Jiang Xuan blushed and said a little embarrassed.
"Fool."
Shen Qian rubbed Jiang Xuan's head again, then took her hand and said, "Let's go, I'll take you to a safe place first."
"Outside..." Jiang Xuan hesitated.
"Oh, you're talking about those scavengers, don't worry, at least there are no living people around the martial arts hall for the time being."
Shen Qian said lightly, "I just cleaned up when I came here. I originally planned to kill the scavengers in the martial arts hall, but then I changed my mind after seeing your performance. This is a rare opportunity, so I just treated it as a gift."
You have experienced it."
Only then did Jiang Xuan realize that Shen Qian had actually arrived a long time ago. Thinking that Shen Qian had seen her crazy look just now, the blush on Jiang Xuan's face became even heavier.
"I didn't think too much at the time, just..."
"No need to explain, I am not the Leshan Giant Buddha, and I will not be soft on these scavengers."
Shen Qian waved his hand.
"Ah, wait!"
Just as Shen Qian was about to leave with Jiang Xuan, Jiang Xuan seemed to remember something again.
She broke free from Shen Qian's hand and ran upstairs with Shen Qian's doubtful eyes. After a while, when Jiang Xuan turned back, she held a photo album tightly in her arms.
Shen Qian's gaze penetrated and he instantly saw clearly the contents of the photo album, and he couldn't help but feel a little lost.
He had seen the photos there once before, but in Jiang Xuan's narrow bedroom in Jingcheng...
"You refused to run...is that why?" Shen Qian asked with a complicated mood.
"Yeah." Jiang Xuan was not shy this time. She nodded in response to Shen Qian's gaze, "It's very important."
"Don't do this next time. Your life is more important to me."
Shen Qian pinched Jiang Xuan's pretty face and said, "It's just a photo, you can take whatever you want later!"
"Really?" Jiang Xuan's eyes lit up.
"Of course... cough, except for the fruit photos."
After teasing Jiang Xuan, Shen Qian pulled the happy girl out of the martial arts hall.
At this time, the sky in Jiangzhou was quite strange. Half of it was shrouded in haze, while the other half was sunny.
This is a sign of a malfunction in the weather system.
On the street, corpses are everywhere, with no end in sight, all of which are the masterpieces of Shen Qian just now.
Without letting Jiang Xuan see the bloody scenes, Shen Qian moved and pulled Jiang Xuan to the sky.
On the surrounding sky, there are dozens of battlefields, all of which are Jiangzhou's mountain and sea warriors fighting against the strongest among the scavengers.
Fires were everywhere on the ground, and among the buildings collapsing, in addition to the scavengers spreading everywhere, you could also see the figures of monsters one after another.
These monsters all entered Jiangzhou from the caves among the scavengers. The reason why Jiangzhou is in such chaos at this time is mostly due to these monsters.
After all, the strength of monsters is much more terrifying than scavengers.
Not far away from the feet, the collapsed underground cave was clearly visible. Shen Qian looked hard and could vaguely see the ravines connected with each other underground, forming a maze-like passage.
When he first entered Jiangzhou, Shen Qian had already discovered that there seemed to be another world hidden underground.
These scavengers were able to enter Jiangzhou through the collapsed cave, which must have been planned for a long time.
Jiang Xuan saw the whole of Jiangzhou for the first time, and the devastation in front of her made her exclaim.
"I'll take you to the shelter of the City Lord's Mansion first."
Shen Qian was busy with his duties and did not dare to delay. He held Jiang Xuan's slender waist and with a few flashes of his body, he arrived outside the crowded city lord's mansion in a moment.

Putting Jiang Xuan down, Shen Qian was about to leave, but Jiang Xuan grabbed his clothes again.
"That voice... appeared again when the ground collapsed. It said that the 'door' was about to be pushed open..."
Shen Qian raised his eyebrows.
Jiang Xuan had told him before that after coming to Jiangzhou, a strange sound often appeared in her mind that gave her a splitting headache, and it was all related to a "door".
Shen Qian once secretly wondered whether this might be related to Jiang Chengye.
If the voice in Jiang Xuan's mind is not an illusion, then this information may indicate something.
It's just that Shen Qian is still not sure whether the "door" Jiang Xuan mentioned is the "door" of Jiang Zhongjunwu.
After parting ways with Jiang Xuan, Shen Qian flashed to the sky and caught sight of two mountain and sea warriors fighting each other, so he carried the mountain and river knife and killed them.
According to the internal dispatch information of the military warriors, Jiangzhong Army’s Lushu Camp and Pulao Camp are already on their way to Jiangzhou.
Originally, with his current state, if he attacked directly and indiscriminately, he could kill countless scavengers in an instant. But at this time, the city was surrounded by chaos, with warriors, civilians and scavengers mixed in. It was impossible for him to directly use any big weapon.
Means of mass destruction.
On the contrary, the army is more suitable to deal with the chaos in the city.
On the contrary, these scavengers from mountains and seas appearing out of nowhere in the sky are the most conspicuous targets.
Whoa!
Hundreds of meters above the ground, with the flash of a bright sword, the mountain and sea warrior who was fighting against a strong scavenger suddenly stopped in shock, and watched helplessly as the scavenger, who had cultivated up to the fourth level of mountains and seas, was beheaded in an instant.
Broken into pieces.
"Thank you, Major Shen, for your help!"
After nine days of fighting, Shen Qian is now a famous person in the mountains and seas. The mountain and sea warriors turned around and saw him. They were stunned and quickly thanked him.
Shen Qian nodded and said nothing more. The figure holding the long sword disappeared into the sky in an instant and rushed to the next battlefield.
……
The night was already dark, and the Shanhe knife was thrust into one side. Shen Qian, with some blood stains on his body, stood on the top of Jiangzhou City, staring at the fire in the city that had not yet been completely extinguished.
After the warriors entered the scene and advanced step by step, the scavengers finally dispersed.
But there were so many of them, and it was urban street fighting. It took even well-trained warriors nearly a day to finally eliminate the scavengers hiding in every corner of Jiangzhou.
The area near the cave has been taken over by Jiang Zhongjun, and they are waiting for someone from the Martial Arts Department to handle the follow-up.
All around, some scattered mountain and sea warriors were adjusting their breathing and recuperating, looking at Shen Qian's figure from time to time with awe.
Today, Shen Qian alone killed thirteen people scavenging mountains and seas.
Such a fierce performance is simply unimaginable to these ordinary mountain and sea warriors.
Fortunately, Shen Qian took action and was able to end the chaos in the shortest possible time.
Shen Qian's eyes drifted far away, as if he was unaware of the gazes around him. Instead, his brows were furrowed.
Everything today was weird and he couldn't figure it out.
Hundreds of thousands of scavengers poured into Jiangzhou City through underground caves. Although it caused great chaos at first, Shen Qian felt that these scavengers were like headless flies, just running around and killing in the city.
No purpose.
But they spent countless efforts to open this cave. How could they not have a clear purpose?
What puzzles Shen Qian even more is that although scavengers are cruel, they still have human instincts and are greedy for life and afraid of death.
But today, these scavengers who entered Jiangzhou City did not know how to escape at all. Even after the military warriors entered, they fought until the last moment.
Standing at the top of the city at this moment, you can smell the overwhelming smell of blood. Every building in every corner of the city is littered with the corpses of countless scavengers.
Including those scavengers from the mountains and seas...
Each of them was so crazy that even though they knew they were not Shen Qian's opponents, they all fought to the last moment.
What is this for?
Also, a day has passed since the incident happened, but until now, no prince has appeared in Jiangzhou.
Shen Qian contacted Pingyang Bo, but did not receive any response.
It was as if all the princes suddenly disappeared...
