Chapter 326: Arranging Contingencies, Dugu Yan Is Willing to Cooperate

~15 min read 2,827 words

The reason Jerry let Yu Xiaogang go was, in fact, because he had his own considerations.

On one hand, Yu Xiaogang is currently engaged in the design of Soul Guidance Devices, and he still makes contributions to Wuhun City.

Although Jerry could see that many of Yu Xiaogang's Soul Guidance Device designs were derived from induction and summarization, in the rapidly developing Wuhun City, there is a real need for people who are good at summarizing.

On the other hand, Bibi Dong still harbors a shred of affection for Yu Xiaogang; if he were to be truly dealt with, it should be Bibi Dong who handles it, and he himself is not willing to play the villain.

The most important point is that Yu Xiaogang is a person who values reputation too much; such a person has a very clear goal and is very easy to deal with.

In the current social environment, to gain a reputation, one must either make a major research breakthrough in a certain industry or overthrow the Spirit Hall and start everything over.

Yu Xiaogang is a smart man. Relying on so many years of effort, he had always wanted to overthrow the Spirit Hall, but now that he has seen Jerry's power, he understands very well that this path is impassable. Therefore, if Yu Xiaogang wants to gain a reputation, he must put effort into the Soul Guidance Device designs he is currently researching.

It is precisely because of these points that Jerry let Yu Xiaogang go. To the average person, Yu Xiaogang might still pose a threat, but at Jerry's level, this bit of a threat counts for nothing at all.

Returning to Wuhun City, Jerry told the Great Elder to go back; as for Dugu Yan's matter, he would handle it himself.

Jerry arrived at the Military Department and first notified the Minister of the Military Department, Elder Magic Bear, to avoid causing unnecessary trouble.

Jerry's appearance caused many people in the Military Department to become excited, and they rushed over one after another to greet Jerry.

Soon, Jerry was surrounded by people, and at this moment, Elder Magic Bear also happened to arrive.

"Don't you all have anything to do? Disperse quickly and get back to work!"

Following a loud roar from Elder Magic Bear, the people surrounding Jerry left reluctantly.

Sure enough, notifying Elder Magic Bear first was the right thing to do; otherwise, being surrounded by people, he wouldn't be able to get anything done.

Some people who had newly joined the Military Department did not crowd around; they only watched from afar. At this moment, they were whispering to each other, inquiring who was so formidable that they could make so many people in the Military Department rush up to greet them.

After getting the result, they all began to regret why they hadn't gone over at that time. If they could have become familiar with Lord Jerry, wouldn't they have taken off on the spot afterward?

Now that the Minister was standing directly beside Jerry, everyone dared not go over anymore.

Soon, Jerry discovered Dugu Yan. At this moment, she was leading the new recruits in training. Jerry's arrival naturally caught her attention, but unlike the others, she did not dare to appear before Jerry, and even wanted to avoid him.

How could Dugu Yan's expression escape Jerry's detection? Jerry smiled and walked directly toward Dugu Yan's direction.

Dugu Yan pretended to be casual and saw Jerry walking toward her from the corner of her eye.

Could her identity have been exposed?

Dugu Yan couldn't help but think of this, but soon she ruled out the possibility of her being exposed. If she were exposed, Jerry shouldn't be walking over slowly, but rather taking action against her directly.

Although she didn't know why Jerry was coming over, on the surface, Dugu Yan feigned composure, trying not to think about Jerry's business, and continued to train the new recruits.

As Jerry got closer and closer, with every step Jerry took, Dugu Yan's heart pounded, and she was no longer as calm as before.

"Dugu Yan, your good sister Ye Lingling must miss you very much. You've been in the Spirit Hall for so long, aren't you going to see your good sister?"

Dugu Yan had thought of many things, but she never expected Jerry to say these words.

However, since Jerry had already said so, she couldn't continue to pretend.

"Greetings, Lord Jerry! My status is currently low, and I haven't had the chance to see Lingling yet. Moreover, I want to improve myself step by step through my own efforts; seeing Lingling is only a matter of time. I hope to be able to see her openly and honestly, relying on my own abilities, rather than having people know about my relationship with Lingling and using that connection to take a shortcut."

When Dugu Yan said this, her gaze was very firm. Jerry could tell that Dugu Yan was not lying at this moment; it seemed she had already had this idea for a long time.

"Having your own ideas is good, but besides Lingling's matter, I have other things to find you for. Come with me."

Jerry did not intend to expose Dugu Yan's identity right here and prepared to change locations. If Dugu Yan did not cooperate, then that would be a different matter.

After hearing Jerry's words, Dugu Yan was also stunned for a moment, then she reacted. Jerry was also a god-level powerhouse and had many methods. Previously, Tang San and the others had also said that if one encountered Jerry, one should not act lightly, and if exposed, one should try to escape.

She shouldn't have been exposed, right! Then Jerry must have something else to find her for. Thinking of this, Dugu Yan decided to follow Jerry to see what he was actually going to do.

Jerry took Dugu Yan directly to a Transfer Array, and after operating it, he took Dugu Yan and teleported away.

When they appeared again, the two arrived in front of a courtyard.

Dugu Yan looked around; it was a Floating Small Courtyard, and one of the few courtyards at the very top.

Jerry didn't speak and led Dugu Yan into the courtyard.

When the Transfer Array of the Floating Small Courtyard was activated, the people inside the courtyard had already sensed it. When Jerry entered, the people inside also walked out.

"Junior Brother, you're back! That's great!" Ye Lingling ran over happily and said loudly.

"Senior Sister, I'm back. Look who I've brought!"

After Jerry finished speaking, he stepped aside, and only then did Ye Lingling see Dugu Yan behind Jerry.

"Yanyan! Long time no see!" Ye Lingling recognized Dugu Yan at once, ran over directly, and gave Dugu Yan a big hug.

Dugu Yan also knew at this moment that the place Jerry had brought her to must be Ye Lingling's home. It seemed Ye Lingling was the same as before, hugging her warmly. Their sisterly bond surged instantly, and she hugged Ye Lingling back.

The two little sisters had too much to say to each other. Jerry, on the contrary, became an outsider, silently listening to the two of them chat on the side.

From the time Ye Lingling became an apprentice, they talked until now. The two chatted more and more enthusiastically, recounting their own experiences to each other, and the two chatted for a whole day.

It was precisely because their strength was high that it didn't matter if they didn't sleep; if ordinary people chatted for this long, wouldn't they be exhausted to death?

I don't know if it was because Jerry was there, or because of Dugu Yan's identity, but she avoided mentioning her own attainment of godhood.

Jerry naturally did not interrupt them; it wouldn't be too late to speak after they had chatted to their heart's content.

After chatting for a day, what needed to be said had been said, and Jerry spoke up at this moment.

"Dugu Yan, one of the Five Great Envoys of the Light God Sect."

Jerry only said this one sentence, and the atmosphere at the scene instantly became quiet to the extreme.

It was over; she had been exposed after all. She believed that she had never done anything related to the Light God Sect while in Wuhun City; how had she been exposed?

"The other God Envoys have already been captured; you were the one who was ratted out!" Seeing the confusion on Dugu Yan's face, Jerry said directly.

"Yanyan, you actually joined the Light God Sect?"

Ye Lingling felt it was unbelievable.

"Lingling, I'm sorry, I didn't mean to hide it. Back then, in order to find my grandfather, I needed to improve quickly, and I just happened to encounter the Poison God's God Trial. However, Lingling, I promise that after coming to Wuhun City, I haven't done a single thing to harm Wuhun City."

Dugu Yan looked at her good sister and said sincerely. She had too few friends, and Ye Lingling was one of them; she didn't want to lose this little sister.

"What she said is true; otherwise, she might have been captured as well by now!"

Jerry saw that Ye Lingling was both worried and angry, so he spoke up to verify Dugu Yan's story.

"Yanyan, how could you be so foolish? Do you even know what the gods of the God Realm are like? And you dared to accept a God Trial!"

Afterwards, Ye Lingling explained the situation regarding the God Realm to Dugu Yan.

After listening, Dugu Yan's previous understanding was completely overturned.

"Jerry, Yanyan has now accepted the Poison God's God Position; is there any way you can help her!" Ye Lingling pleaded.

"There is a way, but I cannot help her resolve the issue of the God Position right now."

"After tomorrow, the world should successfully complete its World Advancement. At that time, the entire world will be able to bear more gods, and there will be other changes as well. If nothing goes wrong, the passage between the God Realm and Douluo Continent will open after this World Advancement."

"At that time, the gods of the God Realm will descend to the lower realm, and the first ones to come down will certainly be those who passed on their God Positions."

"They are not coming down because they want to pass on their God Positions completely, but because they are preparing to kill the current inheritors of their God Positions."

"After the World Advancement, the cultivation limit will also break through. A God Position is equivalent to a cultivation accelerator; previously, because of the limit issue, they were restricted by the God Positions, which is why they thought about passing them on. Now the situation has changed, but since they have already passed on the God Positions, they want to take them back."

"The most direct way to take back a God Position is to kill the current inheritor. Afterwards, the God Position will return to the world, and they can then regain control of the God Position through other methods."

"And I also want to take this opportunity to wipe all these gods out in one fell swoop."

"So, I cannot remove their God Positions right now."

In fact, Jerry had studied God Positions; it was very simple to remove one, as it only required passing it on. If Dugu Yan were willing, she could pass on the God Position right now.

But if they weren't restricted by the God Positions, how many gods would be willing to pass on their own God Positions?

The cultivation acceleration effect of a God Position is indeed very attractive, and one can also control a portion of divine authority through it; ordinary people really wouldn't give it up so easily.

Therefore, Jerry guessed that what the gods of the God Realm most wanted to kill right now were the inheritors of the God Positions like Tang San and the others.

Thus, Jerry simply locked Tang San and the others up. Regardless of whether his guess was correct or not, it didn't matter if he waited a little longer; after tomorrow, when the world advances, everything will come to light.

Whether it is the God Realm or the World Consciousness, any schemes or tricks are nothing but clay chickens and pottery dogs in the face of powerful strength.

After making things clear to Dugu Yan, Jerry had Dugu Yan go into hiding, and at the same time, he would also hide Tang San and the others.

As for where to hide them, what place could be safer than the Moon!

Placing Tang San and the others on the Moon was just to guard against those gods. As for the World Consciousness being able to probe the Moon, Jerry didn't guard against that; under normal circumstances, the World Consciousness would not take action against gods who hold God Positions, unless Tang San and the others acted like the gods of the God Realm.

Fearing that Dugu Yan would be lonely, Ye Lingling requested to be with Dugu Yan, and Jerry agreed. Anyway, the Moon really had no secrets now; everyone knew about it, so it had no impact on him.

Leaving Douluo Planet for the first time, Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling were also very curious and felt that everything on the Moon was incredible. Jerry even told the two of them that there was originally nothing on the Moon, and its current appearance was the result of his many years of transformation.

On the Moon, the area of Jerry's Small Courtyard was now not much different from that on Douluo Planet. If it weren't for the fact that one could see space and Douluo Planet by looking up, the other sensations were exactly the same as on Douluo Continent.

After the two settled in, Jerry returned to Douluo Planet.

With one day left, he naturally had to make some preparations.

In the past, materials were insufficient, and many things were forced to be abandoned. Now that Jerry possessed the ability of Material Transformation, all materials could be summoned by him with a wave of his hand.

With Wuhun City as the center, Jerry directly constructed an Array that could cover the entire city, and it was a superimposed Array at that, possessing all functions such as defense, attack, and spirit gathering.

Even the sky above was covered within the Array.

The moment the Array was completed, all the humans in the Wuhun City area felt the changes around them.

The concentration of soul power was still rising rapidly on the basis of being one hundred times higher than before.

Moreover, the gravity of the entire area also quietly underwent changes, though everyone had not yet noticed this.

Jerry also set up the same Array in Heaven Dou City and Star Luo City, and other major cities were also set up simultaneously.

The Arrays in other cities did not have as many functions as those in Heaven Dou City and Star Luo City.

Jerry would not unify the situation of all cities; the main cities of the Empire, of course, had to be superior to other cities.

After the city Arrays were set up, Jerry arrived in space.

After flying a circle around Douluo Planet and choosing several locations, Jerry reached out his hand, and the soul power in the universe surged crazily toward him.

Not long after, a giant Soul Guidance Cannon appeared before Jerry; the barrel alone was over forty meters long.

Jerry gave it a light push, and this giant Soul Guidance Cannon began to move. After observing it, the Soul Guidance Cannon was rotating around Douluo Planet.

Jerry had previously thought of artificial satellites, but later discovered that if one wanted to communicate on Douluo Continent, there was no need for satellites at all; the Soul Power Particles that were everywhere between heaven and earth were the best means of communication.

However, following the principle of satellites revolving around a planet, Jerry prepared to arrange a circle of Soul Guidance Cannons in space.

Anyway, ordinary gods could not leave Douluo Planet, so when the time came to attack from the outside, they would have no way to destroy them even if they wanted to.

With all his clones sent out, in less than four hours, the outer equator of Douluo Planet was filled with Soul Guidance Cannons.

At the same time, Jerry cleared away all the Meteorites in the nearby space to prevent them from colliding with his Soul Guidance Cannons.

Afterwards, Jerry returned to Douluo Planet, preparing to welcome the advancement of the Douluo World.
