Chapter 218 The Calm Before the Storm
After one night, the entire Base City No. 1 returned to peace.
The early morning sun shines slowly, falling between the buildings and on the pedestrians, feeling warm and cozy.
The traffic on the roads gradually increased.
Although people were nervous and scared for a while about what happened yesterday, they gradually calmed down when they were able to return to their homes and started a new day.
The top floor of the federal headquarters building.
Li Weiyi and Ji Changkong stood in front of the large French window.
"Brother Ji! Although we were able to deceive those alien practitioners this time, it may not be the case next time. Moreover, the number of alien practitioners coming to Earth will only increase and not decrease!" Li Weiyi was very worried. As long as Pan Tian Zhuzai did not return to Earth, there would be many more crises on Earth.
"Alas! We don't have any good solution. Any alien cultivator who can come Earth has at least reached the Star Realm! And on the entire Earth, besides you, the strongest are the monster in the ocean that you subdued, and Zhuge Yuanlong who just broke through the Saint Realm! Our Earth Federation is too weak when facing all forces in the entire universe! Alas!~" Ji Changkong said with a sigh.
Before, he could still be the main force in the battle with the monsters, but now, facing those powerful alien practitioners, his cultivation is not enough. He feels that he is now a useless person and can't help at all.
"There's nothing we can do about it. After all, cultivation has only been around for a hundred years on Earth. How many strong people can be born?" Li Weiyi shook his head and thought about himself. If it weren't for a series of chance encounters, he might not be able to break through to the Saint Realm now.
"We were fooled this time, but what about next time? How are we going to deal with it?" Ji Changkong frowned, but he racked his brains but couldn't think of any good solution.
"Alas! When the enemy comes, we will fight him with our soldiers! When the water comes, we will block it with earth! We can only improvise!" Li Weiyi frowned deeply and could not think of any good solution.
The two chatted casually for a while, and then Li Weiyi said goodbye and went home.
Soon, Li Weiyi returned home.
Li Weiyi pushed the door open and saw the whole family was there. He was slightly startled and asked, "Why are you all here today? Dad! Mom! Aren't you going out for a walk? And Yangyang, aren't you going to the Practitioner Academy today? Weiwei? Aren't you planning to go home?"
"Dad! We are all waiting for you! Yesterday, the alien practitioners came to the earth, and we were worried that you were in danger! We want to wait for you to come back!" As he spoke, Li Yang's eyes were already covered with a layer of mist.
"Dad, isn't everything okay? Haha! You! You're so old, why do you cry all the time? You are a real man now! You have to support a family!" Li Weiyi felt very warm in his heart, he walked over with a smile and patted Li Yang's shoulder.
"Dad! You just came back not long ago, we are afraid of losing you again!" Li Yang wiped his eyes, his nostrils twitching, obviously he was very worried, and he was trying hard not to cry.
"Silly child! Isn't dad back? How could he never come back?" Li Weiyi rubbed Li Yang's hair lovingly.
"'Yi Yi'! We are all worried about you! You have been away for more than ten years and have only been back for a few months. What if you are taken away by those alien practitioners again?" Li Tianhai said worriedly.
"Mom is really afraid of losing you again! 'Yi Yi'!" Zhang Xiaoxia said in a crying voice.
"Weiwei! We really don't want to lose you again!" Bai Weiwei's eyes were moist. She stood up and walked over, hugging Li Weiwei tightly, as if she was afraid of losing him soon.
"Weiwei! I'm fine! It's my fault for making you worry!" Li Weiyi felt the love and care of his family and felt warm in his heart.
"Mom! I'm hungry! I haven't had breakfast yet! Anything else?" Li Weiyi said to Zhang Xiaoxia with a smile while hugging Bai Weiwei. He wanted to change the subject and didn't want his family to worry about it anymore.
"Yes! Yes! Yes! Of course we have! We have all been waiting for you! You haven't even started eating yet! Mom will bring it right away!" When Zhang Xiaoxia heard that her son was still hungry, she hurriedly got up to serve the food.
"Mom! Let me help you!" Bai Weiwei got up from Li Weiyi's arms, wiped her eyes, and walked over to help.
Soon, a table full of sumptuous breakfast was placed in front of Li Weiyi.
"Hmm? It smells so good!" Li Weiyi took two deep sips of the food, looking very satisfied.
"Eat quickly!" Zhang Xiaoxia said with a smile. Her previous worries were also disappeared by Li Weiyi's exaggerated expression.
"Let's eat together! Come! Dad! This is your favorite! Braised pork!"
"Here! Mom! This is your braised eggplant!"
"Wife! Here are your yam slices!"
"Yangyang! Come! Eat more ribs! Grow taller!"
"Thank you, Dad!"
At the dinner table, Li Weiyi kept picking up dishes for his family. With such a happy breakfast, Li Weiyi didn't know how many more meals he could eat. The threat from the alien practitioners and the problems of his own practice were all things he had to deal with. Therefore, he could only try his best to give warmth . He was afraid that when a series of problems came, he would not have time to spend with his family.
The breakfast ended with laughter and joy. The family members went for a walk or went to the academy. Soon, only Li Weiwei and Bai Weiwei were left at home.
Li Weiyi stood in front of the window, looking into the distance, wondering what he was thinking about.
After cleaning up the dishes, Bai Weiwei came over with a cup of tea.
"Weiyi! Are you worried about something? Is it those alien practitioners?" Bai Weiwei put down the tea and asked softly.
Li Weiyi slightly turned sideways, smiled gently, stretched out his arms and hugged Bai Weiwei to his side.
"Before at the dinner table, although you didn't say it, I could see the worry between your brows. Can you tell me? Let me share the worry in your heart with you!" Bai Weiwei gently stroked Li Weiyi's chest and spoke softly.
Li Weiyi chuckled and kissed Bai Weiwei on the forehead, then looked into the distance again. After a while, he spoke, "Now that the seal in the solar system has been lifted, practitioners from other planets will definitely come to Earth. I just didn't expect it to be so soon. Moreover, those alien practitioners are all greedy for the treasures on Earth."
"But, there really are no treasures on Earth, but they just don't believe it. If those alien practitioners come again, I'm afraid there will be no peace on Earth! Alas! ~"
"Or, if those alien practitioners come again, let them search for it themselves. If they find the treasures, they will own them. How about that?" Bai Weiwei said after thinking for a while.
"No way! How can those alien practitioners believe it? They just think that we have hidden the treasure. By then, innocent people might be harmed. They might even kill for those so-called treasures." Li Weiyi shook his head, his eyes full of sorrow.
"What should we do then?" Bai Weiwei sat up worriedly, and then her eyes fell on the small tripod on the windowsill.
"Eh?! ~ Weiyi! This small tripod! It! It can't be some kind of treasure, right?" Bai Weiwei asked in surprise, pointing at the small tripod on the windowsill.
This small cauldron was the one that Li Weiyi brought back from the Dark Moon Forest more than ten years ago. During the ten years that Li Weiyi was away, Bai Weiwei kept this small cauldron. Li Weiyi once told her that this was a small cauldron that could absorb the power of heaven and earth and turn it into earth vein essence liquid, so Bai Weiwei naturally had to preserve it well. Moreover, over the past ten years, the earth vein essence liquid in the small cauldron had long been full, and she and Li Yang would take it from time to time to refine it, otherwise, Li Yang's cultivation would not have improved so quickly.
It was not until Li Weiyi came back that the small tripod was taken out and placed on the windowsill.
"Huh?!" After Bai Weiwei's reminder, Li Weiyi remembered that he still had such a treasure, "This is indeed a treasure!"
"No! The only one! What I mean is, since this treasure can appear on the earth, then there must be other treasures on the earth, they just haven't been discovered yet!" Bai Weiwei said with bright eyes flashing.
"Eh?! ~ Weiwei! Your idea has great possibility! But, we don't know where these treasures are hidden. We can't search for them inch by inch on the earth, right?" Li Weiyi just became happy, but then he became worried again.
The reason why Li Weiyi was able to obtain this small tripod was that after absorbing the vital energy of heaven and earth, it all turned into earth vein essence liquid, emitting a refreshing fragrance .
And if there are other treasures on the earth, it would be even more difficult for them to find them if they really want to.
"Or, we can spread the news now that a treasure has appeared in the Dark Moon Forest or the Qianjue Mountains, and then everyone will go treasure hunting. When those alien practitioners come, we humans on Earth will withdraw and only leave a small number of people to search inside to dispel the doubts of those alien practitioners. In this way, we can draw the attention of those alien practitioners outside the base city. Although we can't make those alien practitioners leave the earth, we can also reduce the losses to our earth! What do you think of this method?" Bai Weiwei's eyes flashed with wisdom.
"Good idea! You are really my Li Weiyi's 'good wife'!" Li Weiyi agreed with Bai Weiwei's idea. He didn't expect that Bai Weiwei could solve the problems of several of them. Although it was not perfect, it was perfect to deal with the current situation.
Then, Li Weiyi turned around, hugged Bai Weiwei in his arms, and kissed her gently.
