Chapter 142: The End of Another Battle

Wu Jiu nodded, perhaps Mr. Tao from the story was exactly such a person.

He didn't believe in prophecies, only in the future he was able to achieve.

Perhaps from the beginning, Mr. Tao didn't have any expectations for the prophecy, so after witnessing despair, Xie Yingjie chose to head for the High Tower, while Mr. Tao only felt the betrayal of a good friend.

Wu Jiu no longer dwelt on these thoughts but instead turned to Bai Wu:

"Are these scientists... going to stay here?"

"Yes."

"Have you not considered waking them up and bringing them back? This place might not be safe."

"It is safe. With these eggshell-like protectors, the Evil Fallen cannot sense them, and the whole Xuanhui City probably doesn't have any higher-level Evil Fallen. Jing Si must have done some purging back then. Besides, taking these scientists back would be troublesome for us to settle them. We will return here and take them to the High Tower... when we have the capability."
