I'm not a psychopath!

Chapter 198 Emergencies
After this battle, the sky above Frost Cliff City returned to its former tranquility.

The sun shines through the clouds onto this land that has just experienced the baptism of war, as if bringing hope and warmth to the living.

Zhang Xin stood on the top of the city wall, looking around with complicated eyes. The once prosperous Frost Cliff City was now reduced to ruins.

He is the new general, and will be responsible for the repair of Frost Cliff City and rebuild it into the indestructible strategic location.

"Jiang Qing, you saved Frostcliff City. The entire North will remember your feat." Zhang Xin said in a deep voice. He knew that the significance of this victory went far beyond the survival of a city. It was the hope for the future of the entire North.

"The city lord is too kind. If it weren't for everyone fighting side by side, how could I turn the tide by myself?" Although Jiang Qing was proud in his heart, he understood the importance of humility and unity.

"Hahaha, I don't feel at ease as the city lord. It's obviously all thanks to you guys who worked so hard to get here..."

Jiang Qing smiled and said nothing.

In the following days, the array master also arrived in Frost Cliff City and began the task of rebuilding the center.

Although they have lost a lot, people's hearts are not dead. Hope is like a new seed, quietly sprouting in everyone's heart.

Jiang Qing, on the other hand, spent the whole day with those formation masters, because they had the construction blueprint of the city defense center in their hands, which made him immersed in it.

but.

Xu Yi's figure did not appear again, as if he had completed his mission and left the stage to Jiang Qing.

"The fairest thing in this world is that everyone will die. This is not a matter of probability, but a matter of time. But what is the meaning of our lives?"

That day, Jiang Qing stood alone on the city wall and asked in a low voice.

There was only the sound of wind blowing in response.

and also……

"Jiang Qing, look at the snowman I made. Is it pretty?" Qin Xiaosui, with a red nose and white air coming out of his mouth, handed a small snowman to Jiang Qing.

……

A few days later, the news came.

The garrison of Jubei City will arrive soon, and they can then leave. They have stayed here for so many days just to help defend the city.

The next day.

Teams of soldiers in bright iron armor arrived on time and walked into Frostcliff City in an orderly manner.

Jiang Qing and others also boarded the flying boat and returned to Jubei City, because Xu Beichuan wanted to become a disciple, and it was said that there would be a grand ceremony of becoming a disciple.

Jiang Qing originally wanted to refuse, he didn't like this kind of scene very much, but he decided to go anyway.

Willing to have nothing else.

System points have been used up.

The points he had previously obtained in the Six Paths of Reincarnation small world have now been exhausted, and he needs to find a way to get some more points.

in case the emergency.

It just so happens that people from all over the city will come to watch this apprenticeship ceremony, so I have to find a way to make things go crazy.

Jiang Qing and others boarded the flying boat back to Jubei City. On the boat, they chatted about every detail of the trip to Frost Cliff City, and everyone had a thrilling story to share.

However, everyone on the flying boat was a personal witness of the war, and although the team was divided into two groups, they were familiar with the overall incident.

As a result, the other party only says a little bit, and you can guess the general idea based on the information.

Everyone was quite interested and reviewed the entire operation, and also found some details that could be optimized.

As it turned out, the trip to Frost Cliff City was indeed effective, and the entire team became more cohesive.

Finish talking about these topics.

The cabin of the flying boat became quiet again.

Qin Xiaosui leaned against the window, watching the lonely snow falling outside. Jiang Qing and Baili Ye lit a fire and boiled a pot of tea.

As for Luo Hua and Shen Chengxian, they were so bored that they started to compete with each other in staring. Whoever blinked first would lose.

But what they are most worried about is the Luo River.

Because her arms were severely injured in the previous battle, she did not participate in the final battle with the black water bear, but instead chose to go first to get reinforcements.

It was white everywhere outside, and I didn't know if Senior Sister Luo Shui would get into trouble.

"...I say, do you two have to be so boring?" Jiang Qing said speechlessly: "You have been staring at each other for two hours."

"The winner is about to be decided. I think he is about to collapse!" Luo Hua said stubbornly.

"You're not able to do it. I can at least stare for two hours. Can you?" Shen Chengxian retorted.

"Why can't I? Come on!"

"Come on, come on!"

Jiang Qing: "...two stubborn guys."

"At least stay away from my fire."

In order to decide the winner as soon as possible, Shen Chengxian and Luo Hua stipulated that no tears were allowed. If they cried, they would be considered the loser. However, keeping their eyes open caused dryness, and the body would automatically secrete tears, which could not be controlled.

Now, the two of them lay down in front of the fire and started to roast their eyes...

Bailiye changed the subject and said, "Brother Jiang, why do you think the Xu family would bow down and become your disciple?"

"The devil knows..."

"But it just so happens that I'm on my way, so I might as well attend the apprenticeship ceremony. I remember that the last time I attended the apprenticeship ceremony, I was the one who took my master as my apprentice.

This is inexplicable.

Is it my turn to accept a disciple?"

"Hahaha, of course it's because I've grown up." Baili Ye was deeply touched. After all this journey, he was no longer the prince who grew up in the deep palace.

He did learn a lot.

But soon Bailiye asked again in confusion, "Huh? Brother Jiang, what do you mean by on the way? The place where the battle of destiny begins...

It should be in the opposite direction, right? "

"Of course I'm not referring to the battle of luck." Jiang Qing poked the charcoal with the Longyuan Sword, and the originally dark red charcoal fire suddenly became bright again.

"Have you forgotten the north of the north, the border of the world?" Jiang Qing's voice was not loud but it stunned everyone.

Luo Hua stopped comparing, rubbed his eyes and said: "Yes! We still have to explore the truth of the world!"

Shen Chengxian looked at the other party with resentment. No more competition? Wouldn't it be a waste of time to stare at him for several hours?

But it is true that the temptation of the North of the North is great enough, and he also wants to see what the border of the legendary world looks like.

"Wow wow wow!!"

Qin Xiaosui screamed and ran over excitedly, sitting in Jiang Qing's arms, waiting to hear the plan.

So, the topic gradually turned to deeper questions - north of the north, what is the unknown world like and what is inside it?
"Have you ever thought about what is in the north of the northern border?" Jiang Qing suddenly asked this question, which aroused everyone's curiosity. "I once heard that there is an endless ice field there, so cold that even the air freezes into ice." Shen Chengxian said thoughtfully.

"I've heard a little bit about it. I heard that there are huge beasts there, more powerful than the black water bears we have seen." Qin Xiaosui gestured with his hands.

"Maybe the north of the northern border is another world, completely different from our world." Jiang Qing said thoughtfully.

This topic has aroused heated discussions among everyone. Some people say that it is the fairyland after becoming an immortal, some think it is the abyss of the devil, and some say it is actually a portal to other worlds.

"I once heard an old eunuch in the palace say that the border of the world is not a fixed place, but a constantly changing boundary." Baili Ye expressed a different point of view.

"What does it mean?"

Qin Xiaosui asked curiously.

"That is to say, the border of the world is not a solid wall, but a membrane that is constantly expanding and contracting. We can never really reach the border, because every time we approach it, it will retreat," Bailiye explained.

"Is it true? It's so mysterious?"

"Beyond that border is another world. Will the method we practice still be effective in that environment?" Luo Hua asked.

"How did I know this..."

Bailiye's mouth twitched. He had only heard some things from people in the palace. As for the details...

I'm afraid the old eunuch himself doesn't know either, because no one has ever gone to the other side and then returned.

However, on the roads north of the northern border, there are countless dead bones, and few people can come back.

"It's hard to say." He Yao smiled slightly, "Every world has its own unique laws and order. Perhaps our cultivation will be suppressed there, or there may be a new breakthrough." Jiang Qing said this.

Because he is from Earth.

Although one can cultivate immortality in this world of immortal cultivation, the suppression from the Great Dao is indeed more severe.

For example, if he raised his cultivation to the level of the Spiritualization Realm here, he could probably split Frost Cliff City in half with all his strength, but if he was on the ground...

Don't talk about cutting off the river with one finger.

With one strike of the sword, the Pacific Ocean can be split in two.

"I've always wanted to know what the border of the world is made of." Qin Xiaosui held his cheek with his hand, looking curious, "Is it like a wall, separating us from the outside world?"

"After saying so much, never mind whether there is another world behind it. I just want to know, what will happen if we cross the border?" Shen Chengxian asked the question that everyone cared about.

Baili Ye suddenly said seriously:
"I've heard that people who cross the border will be caught in the turbulence of time and space and lost forever in the chaos. If you want to go north of the northern border, you must never try it lightly."

"..."

After discussing for a long time, everyone began to daydream and imagine the unknown world.

"Or...we should go to the north of the northern border first? And then attend the apprenticeship conference. We should still be in time." Shen Chengxian said.

“This isn’t a good idea. After all, this is Brother Jiang’s disciple-taking ceremony. From now on, there will be an additional powerful force supporting us, so we can’t let it go to waste.

Although I would love to see it too.”

Baili Ye said in a dilemma.

"Let's wait until the apprenticeship ceremony is over. This matter is indeed very important, and the North of the Northern Territory is right there, and we can't run away." Qin Xiaosui helped Jiang Qing make the decision.

Jiang Qing himself didn't say anything, he didn't care.

The flying boat sped through the sky, and everyone's thoughts flew far away with He Yao's words, just as everyone was immersed in infinite reverie about the north of the northern border.

The flying boat suddenly trembled slightly, interrupting everyone's thoughts.

Everyone then realized that the scenery outside began to become blurry, and a layer of mist quietly enveloped the flying boat.

"What's going on? Let's check quickly. Has the ship deviated from its course?" Jiang Qing stood up and walked to the window of the cabin, trying to peek at the situation outside.

"Strange, there is no deviation!"

Luo Hua frowned as he checked the star plate.

At this moment, the others also stood up and went to the window to look. They saw that there seemed to be an invisible force in the clouds and mist guiding the flying boat forward, causing the originally straight route to appear subtly distorted.

"How is this going?"

Jiang Qing felt a little uneasy, and he was keenly aware of the strangeness of his surroundings.

"Let me go out and take a look." Shen Chengxian expanded his chest. He has always been bold and full of curiosity about this unknown phenomenon.

However, just as Shen Chengxian was about to open the cabin door, the flying boat suddenly shook violently, as if being pulled by a powerful force.

Everyone held on to the fixed objects tightly to avoid being thrown out.

"Oh no, we seem to have entered some kind of restricted area!" Jiang Qing warned loudly, "Everyone hold on tight, don't get thrown out!"

At this moment, a look of nervousness appeared on everyone's face.

The flying boat continued to move forward while trembling, and the surrounding clouds and fog became thicker and thicker, making it almost impossible to see the outside world.

Suddenly, a bright light emerged from the clouds and illuminated the entire flying boat.

There was some mysterious power contained in the light that shocked everyone's heart.

"Look!"

Qin Xiaosui pointed in the direction of the light, with shock and excitement in his voice.

Everyone's eyes were focused, and they saw a huge crack slowly opening up where the light was, as if it was a portal to another world. The crack emitted a dazzling light that made it impossible to look directly at it.

"This is..." Baili Ye was so surprised that he was speechless. He had heard similar descriptions from ancient books, but this was the first time he saw it with his own eyes.

"Shit, we couldn't have accidentally driven to the north of the northern border?" Luo Hua's voice trembled slightly, and he was obviously deeply shocked by the scene before him.

"Quick, control the flying boat to move backwards!"

Jiang Qing shouted wildly: "Something is wrong here, we will definitely be sucked in by this crack!"

"No! This power..."

The flying boat was still involuntarily approaching the crack, and everyone's heart became tense.

In silence, the flying boat slowly sailed into the mysterious portal. In an instant, the strong light engulfed them all, and when the light faded away.

There was an unprecedented chill in the air here, but it was not biting, but a fresh and invigorating chill.

The sky was a strange lavender, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of snow, reflecting a faint blue light. In the distance, the rolling snow-capped mountains stood tall, like giants guarding this world.

"Have we crossed the barrier north of the northern border?" Luo Hua muttered to himself, his eyes looking around unconsciously, trying to capture every detail.

"No!"

Jiang Qing chuckled, "The laws of heaven and earth here are still exactly the same, we should still be in the original world, but we have to be careful.

We are afraid...

We have already reached the northernmost part of the northern border." Jiang Qing looked at the positioning display on the star-seeking disk and frowned.
