I'm not a drama god

Chapter 1381 Another Ji Xuan

United States.

In the dim night, two figures walked up the stairs and finally arrived on an inconspicuous ship.

The old deck creaked under the footsteps of the two men. Several sturdy black men stood in various places on the ship. They glanced in their direction, nodded to each other, then skillfully raised the anchor and prepared to go out to sea.

"Old Lu, can this ship really return to China?" Wu Tongyuan looked around cautiously, "This looks like a smuggling ship!"

Wu Tongyuan is now much thinner than when he was in Shennongjia. He looks unkempt and it is obvious that he did not have a good time during his time in the United States.

"There are wars everywhere now. How can there be a normal ship to take you back?" Lu Xun shook his head.

"But don't worry, I have already contacted the domestic side. As long as our ship can get close to the border, someone will come to take us back."

"That's good... But these people won't trick us into the high seas and kill us, right?" Wu Tongyuan was still worried.

"...I say, Old Wu, why are you still so timid?" Lu Xun was a little speechless. "Even without me, you can handle this boatload of people by yourself, right?"

"???"

Wu Tongyuan's eyes widened. "How can I solve this problem?"

"What about your ability? Don't tell me you don't have any. It's been so long since the Shennongjia incident, and Yang Xiao and Su Zhiwei can both handle things on their own. Haven't you made any progress at all?"

Wu Tongyuan shrank his neck, wanting to say something but stopping himself...

"I... I do have it... but I don't really know how to use it..."

Lu Xun was about to say something when a cell phone rang suddenly, and the busy crew members around him looked over here at the same time.

"Strange... shouldn't there be no signal?" Lu Xun muttered in confusion and took out his cell phone. Before he could press the answer button, a voice rang out.

"Lu Xun, it's me."

"Yang Xiao?"

Hearing this voice, Lu Xun's eyes flashed with surprise. He put the phone to his ear and asked, "What's wrong?"

"..."

"I understand what you mean, but this doesn't seem like your style... Is Director Chen by your side?"

"..."

"Okay, I understand. I'll send you their number in a moment."

"..."

"I have just boarded the ship and it will take some time for me to return to China... Anyway, Wu Tongyuan and I will try our best to be there."

"..."

"Okay, see you in China."

Lu Xun hung up the phone.

"Is it Dr. Yang?" Wu Tongyuan asked doubtfully, "What's the matter with him?"

"Well, something big must have happened. He wants to gather the nine of us together again for a meeting."

"Oh... go ahead, I'm going with you anyway." Wu Tongyuan looked like he was clinging to someone's thigh.

The ship started slowly, taking advantage of the night to get closer to the country. Lu Xun stood on the deck, looking into the distance and sighed:

"...He seemed to be in a hurry, saying that we must gather within 24 hours. At our speed, we probably won't be able to make it."

Normally, shipping from the United States to China takes at least 20 days. Under this circumstance, they will definitely not be able to catch up.

It’s not that Lu Xun doesn’t want to take a plane, but the world war is at its most intense now, and it is impossible for there to be a direct flight from the United States to the country. Moreover, once the US side knows that he and Wu Tongyuan, two important scientists, are on the plane, they will probably shoot them down with a missile.

Although Lu Xun can be guided by the starlight, his current rank is not enough to cross the ocean, not to mention that he is bringing Wu Tongyuan with him.

"24 hours..." Wu Tongyuan muttered softly, his eyes sweeping towards the nothingness in front of him.

He hesitated for a moment, then raised his hand slightly, as if fiddling with something in the void.

"Maybe... I can catch up?"

……

“I got the phone numbers.”

Yang Xiao put down his phone and said.

He was about to call them one by one, but Chen Ling interrupted him first:

"and many more."

"what happened?"

"Don't call Lou Yu."

"Why?" Yang Xiao was puzzled. "Didn't you say you wanted to gather all the Nine Lords?"

"Lou Yu is different. He in this era is not the original him... I don't know what he wants to do, but the only thing I can be sure of is that he may have ill intentions towards the other nine monarchs."

The [Morality] archive that the Silver King stole from the Gray King has most likely fallen into Lou Yu's hands, and Chen Ling clearly remembers that when they were in Shennongjia, Lou Yu directly attacked Wu Tongyuan, and it was a fatal move!

Therefore, the Lou Yu of this era is the future eternal Lou Yu, and is the enemy standing opposite to the Jiujun.

"Then, I just need to notify others?" Yang Xiao asked.

Chen Ling fell into deep thought.

Ever since they parted in Shennongjia, Chen Ling has never seen Lou Yu again in this era. Thinking about it carefully, he was probably being restrained by Xuan Yujun and Ji Xuan who traveled back through time. After all, these two had fought each other in Shennongjia.

Yang Xiao wanted to gather the Nine Lords in order to awaken the others and make the Nine Lords work together, but this also gave Lou Yu the opportunity to catch them all in one fell swoop. Once something went wrong on Ji Xuan's side, no one knew how many of the Nine Lords would die at Lou Yu's hands.

Therefore, the safest way is to inform Ji Xuan of this matter in advance and ask him to keep a close eye on Lou Yu.

"Call Ji Xuan first." Chen Ling spoke directly.

Yang Xiao nodded, the aurora flickered slightly in his pupils, and he directly dialed Ji Xuan's number.

Beep-beep-beep-beep…

Yang Xiao's brows gradually furrowed as he waited for the call to ring again and again. Just when he thought Ji Xuan would not answer the call, the call was suddenly connected.

"Hey?"

"Is this Dr. Ji? I'm Yang Xiao."

"Hmm? Dr. Yang? Wait...how did you get the call in? There shouldn't be any signal here."

"Dr. Ji, where are you now? Is it convenient to talk?"

"I now……"

Before Ji Xuan on the other end of the phone finished speaking, there was a sound of a door opening, as if someone was talking to him from behind.

Ji Xuan's impatient voice then rang out: "Hey wait a minute, I said I will cooperate! Wait until I finish the call..."

Ji Xuan's voice came closer to the receiver:

"Hello? Dr. Yang, what did you just say...Oh, I'm free now!"

"To be honest, I'm in a government laboratory right now. They say I... uh... have superpowers, so they want to do a checkup on me. I thought I'd just check it out... but so far, it seems like they haven't found anything. I suspect they made a mistake."

Yang Xiao was using the hands-free mode. When Chen Ling heard Ji Xuan's words, her heart skipped a beat.

He suddenly realized a problem.

“Oh no… this Ji Xuan is the Ji Xuan who didn’t obtain the power of the Red Star’s wish?”
