Chapter 732

The faint fragrance in the air could no longer be smelled.

It seemed the Carefree Spring and the Aphrodisiac Atmosphere had also been transferred to Penglai Village.

In this way, even if everything was fully transferred.

Suddenly, a figure flashed before his eyes.

Gu Qing, with an outstanding figure, appeared ahead.

Gu Qing saw Zhao Chi and smiled with narrowed eyes.

"My lord, you've finished making it?"

"Mm, looks like everything's been moved over?"

"Yes, everyone's working over at Penglai Village now, but the various buildings will still take some time to finish, which will affect work output for a while."

Zhao Chi nodded: "That's fine, a few days' delay is no problem, safety first."

After all, food was plentiful now, and all kinds of supplies were not lacking.

Indeed, it wasn't a big problem.

Gu Qing said: "Understood, the twenty new arrivals today have already gone to Penglai Village, I converted all of them into builders, is that alright?"

Zhao Chi agreed: "No problem, Penglai Village does need to speed up construction, go help them change classes."

Gu Qing smiled: "Alright, caught quite a few fish over there, I'll grill you some fish for lunch."

Zhao Chi said: "Then I'll look forward to it."

After Gu Qing left, Zhao Chi opened the various group chats.

From last night onward, the discussions in the various communication groups had never stopped.

In the class group, chief instructor Li Ruanyu had warned everyone last night not to go out casually, and then never spoke again.

Only leaving the various students to discuss frantically.

Wang Lie 【What's going on outside? It's too chaotic】

Zheng He 【Don't know, in this situation no one dares go out】

Li Xun 【I feel like today's incident isn't ordinary, several people from our village came back from outside saying the entire Hegu Town was destroyed】

Tan Wei 【Hegu Town destroyed? That can't be, right?】

Su Ying 【Really might be, quite a few people in our village say the same thing, the village is under lockdown now, ready to fight at any moment】

Yang Xiong 【Our village too, not allowed out and not allowed in】

Kong Xiang 【Did you check the year-level big group? Several people said the nobles lost this time, after Hegu Town it's the rebels' territory】

Liu Cheng 【Can't be, right? Even if the nobles lost, they'll strike back soon, how could it be the rebels'?】

Kong Xiang 【That's what the year-level group said, not me】

Zheng He 【@Cao Feng. Brother Cao, do you have any news on your end】

Kong Xiang 【@Cao Feng. Yeah Brother Cao, your family has good intel, any new info to warn us?】

Wang Lie 【@Lu Yi. Class president, does your family have any news? Why aren't any of you saying anything?】

Yang Xiong 【@Zhao Chi. Zhao Chi, what's the situation at your Stream Village?】

Kong Xiang 【@Lu Yi. Yeah Lu Yi, does your family have any news? Share some with us commoners and small clans, even a hint would be great】

Zhao Chi 【@Yang Xiong. Stream Village is under lockdown too, everyone's waiting for news from outside】

Yang Xiong 【Understood Zhao Chi, you be careful too】

In the class group, they discussed many messages.

But Lu Yi and Cao Feng never said anything.

Including Shi Juan, who had gone with Cao Feng to participate in the New Talent Tournament, also didn't speak.

He didn't know what their situation was.

At the time they should all have been in the audience seats, including Zhao Huai and Zhao Jiao.

Zhao Chi opened the year-level big group.

He found the discussions inside were even more intense.

All kinds of news were flying everywhere.

Quite a few pieces of news contradicted each other, and he didn't know who to believe.

Zhao Chi specifically filtered and searched for students who had spoken, but didn't see Lang Hu or Yuan Zhao.

Lang Hu had been receiving the award in the void space at the time, but after being killed and sent out, had disappeared without a trace.

He didn't know if they had met with disaster, or been captured.

In any case, none of them were very lucky.

He opened the Stream Village group.

The discussion heat inside was average.

Also no clear thread, everyone saying their own thing.

But the only thing certain was that Xiao Rui, Xiao Luan, Qi Yu and others hadn't returned.

Including elders of the Xiao family like Xiao Xiao Qiqian.

Everyone guessed their fate was more likely bad than good.

He opened the family group.

Everyone was discussing how to search for Zhao Huai and Zhao Jiao.

Especially Fourth Uncle Zhao Qiye.

After all, both of them were Zhao Qiye's children.

But no particularly useful method was discussed.

Clan Head Zhao Shizhang, through every connection and contact he could muster, still failed to obtain any useful information.

When Zhao Chi returned last night, he had already told them everything he knew.

Those rebel forces are mainly composed of captives.

They capture the various lords and squeeze the resources from their territories.

Presumably, before those resources are drained dry, none of those lords will be killed.

In the short term, their lives should be safe enough.

But Zhao Jiao... is a woman.

A young woman of only twenty-one.

Even if she survives, she will most likely suffer humiliation.

Thinking of this, Zhao Chi clenched his fists tight.

But right now, he is powerless to do anything.

The only thing he can do is keep improving himself.

What can improve him right now is making sleepwear.

These sleepwear can grant experience, so the sooner they are made, the better.

He called Qi Yue over and continued crafting.

As the crafting went on, Zhao Chi grew more and more skilled.

His command of Qi Yue's four arms also became increasingly effortless.

Qi Yue was astonished to discover that Zhao Chi was actually more adept at using them than she was herself.

Not a single arm was left idle.

Every one of them was constantly busy at work.

One arm pulled thread in support, while three arms wove in concert.

Agile as a machine.

She could not help but ask.

Qi Yue 【My lord, why do I feel like you use my arms more nimbly and swiftly than I do myself? Could you teach me?】

Zhao Chi had actually noticed this issue as well.

At first he assumed it was because his Sleepwear Expertise had leveled up.

But thinking it over carefully, he realized it wasn't only that.
