This Female Celebrity Comes from the Cultivation World

Chapter 92: The News



Chapter 92

The golden net was shining brightly - it looked like something good!

Just as everyone was starting to exclaim in wonder, they discovered that the glow on the golden net was fading away, and the water in the reservoir was becoming more and more turbulent.

Previously, no matter how turbulent the water was, it would not overflow past the bottom of the reservoir onto land. But now, it was rushing towards everyone in waves, like ocean swells, drenching several men in religious robes who were standing at the water's edge. They crawled and rolled away in panic, taking shelter behind the soldiers.

Weapons were aimed at the water's surface, with dense rows of muzzles seeming ready to open fire at any moment.

Fish also slowly swam up following the currents, jumping higher and higher.

Perhaps it was because the golden ripples had not yet dissipated - at the moment, other than the high waves, there did not seem to be any other dangers, so people were not very scared.

Suddenly, a fierce wind started howling, and the rumbling from the reservoir bottom gradually rose to the surface, with streaks of white lights flashing nonstop underwater, clustering closer and closer together.

All at once, all the water in the reservoir surged up, with fish trapped in it, struggling like caged beasts in their final moments.

Watching this scene from the safety of an explosion-proof vehicle, the mouse locked in a transparent glass cage retreated to the farthest corner, staying as far away from the reservoir as possible.

The mouse's whole body shook, and it even chanted to itself: "Oh mouse, this time I'm certainly about to die!"

The observer sitting next to the mouse responsible for watching it was currently staring out of the car window at the water column, completely mesmerized by it, without paying any attention to the mouse at all.

After all, compared to a talking mouse, the supernatural phenomenon outside was much more attractive.

Finally, the white lights underwater grew more and more numerous, and a solid white figure appeared at the bottom of the reservoir.

It flew out from the water column up into the sky. All the water columns retreated back underwater, leaving only the giant fish still struggling in midair.

The strange white glowing creature looked...a little like the dragons in ancient paintings...

No, it was a dragon!

Roar!

A tremendous dragon's cry echoed through the hills, shaking bare what little sparse branches still remained on the trees dozens of li away!

Dragons were legendary holy creatures!

And now one had appeared right before their eyes, crying out loud - people could hardly believe it.

But time waits for no one. After roaring once, the dragon flew straight up into the sky, illuminating a large part of Z City's night sky with its massive shadow.

The fish in the water dropped down, falling onto the open ground nearby and leaving a sizable crater in the earth.

It took people a long time after the dragon's departure to turn their attention to the big fish on the ground.

The fish was floundering on the ground, desperately pumping its gills, opening and closing its mouth as if thirsty for water.

Between the beautiful dragon and the ordinary fish, people firmly chose the fish, no, the dragon, without any hesitation.

The commotion in the reservoir must have been caused by this fish, or rather, the people had caused it to go berserk, right? The dragon must have trapped it or something like that? They shifted their gun muzzles and took aim at the ugly-looking fish.

-

The white dragon's figure dissipated into the night sky. In Song Jixing's hands, the little white dragon chirped softly and nibbled on Song Jixing's fingertips.

Although Song Jixing didn't understand the dragon language, he could guess roughly what Elder Bai was saying.

Hurry up and turn her back!

Song Jixing said, "Elder Bai, I'll take you back now." Then he manipulated his sword again and flew back towards the villa.

As for the monstrously huge fish, as Song Jixing undid the spell formation, he also destroyed its cultivation base and shattered its meridians.

It would never be able to cultivate again, much less harm anyone. The people above probably wouldn't sentence it to death, allowing it to live out the rest of its life continuing to contribute to the cause of the motherland.

After returning to the villa, Xiang Zhi voluntarily took the spiritual white dragon from Song Jixing's hands and brought it into a side room.

Soon, the sound of a hairdryer could be heard coming from the room.

On the screens in the living room right now, there was no longer the dedicated livestream, but rather Shen Feixian's account for internet surfing.

Many Z City residents were discussing on forums the scenes they had witnessed tonight.

The weather tonight was exceptionally clear, and it was still early, so many citizens had gone out for an evening stroll.

When they first heard the dragon's cry propagating far through the air, ordinary people didn't take notice of it at the start, mistaking it for some kind of machine rumbling.

After all, there were far too many bizarre noises nowadays.

Then, a swirling pillar of light shot up into the sky, illuminating over half of the night sky. Even those who had had their heads down looking at their phones were prompted by people around them to look up and witness this, which lasted over a dozen seconds.

Dog Owner I've Decided: Holy crap, I've lived this long and finally gotten to see a real dragon! My ancestors were right, I really am descended from dragons! [Photo of dragon's tail]

Ah Shui: Um, it was probably just fireworks, or an explosion from some lightning experiment. It looks like it has some shape, but it's too far away for me to see clearly.

Smart Min Smart Min: Here's a photo I took, it was a dragon! An actual dragon! I saw the dragon with my own eyes! I took this at the entrance to my village! My grandma was about to make me kneel down before it on the spot, good thing I reacted quickly to take this shot! There really are dragons! [Photo of dragon flying]

There were all kinds of comments under this post, some agreeing and some doubting.

How could there be dragons in this day and age?

Shen Feixian kept refreshing. In less than two minutes, all the photos online completely vanished, leaving only a few fragmented text posts.

The news of the dragon's appearance spread swiftly through the internet, gaining popularity at lightning speed.

But people who came to check the trending topic after hearing about it found only text and no images. What was going on?

Even if some people had posted the images elsewhere, they were quickly deleted by the social media platforms, turning into greyed out pictures. This misled quite a few netizens into thinking it was a hoax.

Shen Feixian summarized the information and gave Song Jixing a rough figure for how many people had seen this news tonight.

The number would continue growing tomorrow.

But how much it grew depended on the official stance.

Would they openly publicize it, or continue to bury the secret? Shen Feixian felt it would be the latter. After all, having dragons exist and having them interact with you were two different things.

Sure enough, the latest trending search was Z City's municipal government coming out to debunk the rumors.

They claimed it was New Year's celebratory fireworks being prepared by a local fireworks factory, but due to workers' negligence, some unexpected problems occurred.

The fireworks had been set off in the wrong direction, making too loud a noise.

The officials even released a photo of people gathered around a spent fireworks shell that had burned to ashes.

Now that the government had come out to dispel the rumors, what else was there to say!

Many people who had just come to watch the spectacle dispersed. But some still stubbornly insisted otherwise.

Shen Feixian lightly tapped the keyboard, changing the screen images until it stopped on one notification: "Junior sister, they're preparing to hold a group meeting! Looks like good progress."
