What To Do If The Heroine Escapes From The Book

Chapter 313: Night Attack On Yunxiao City

It was like being teased by his friends about his exam scores when he suddenly topped the charts. Chu Ge sat there, feeling somewhat dazed and overwhelmed, shaking his head while reflecting on the mixed emotions.

In the past, he would’ve felt uncomfortable with this kind of off-site ‘boost’ in his rankings, thinking it wasn’t his work’s accomplishment. But now, after multiple similar incidents occurred one after another, he became somewhat numb to it. His ultimate goal was to expand his control over his world, and he was willing to use whatever means necessary. He wasn’t deliberately orchestrating these events, so why bother about it?

This kind of honor from topping the charts was real.

Who among those who write hasn’t had such a dream?

Dreams just like that unexpectedly turned into reality.

At this moment, Chu Ge’s mind was filled with fleeting thoughts – his literary dreams in his youth, working just to make ends meet after entering the industry, the hardships of part-time writing, the determination to quit his job. They said part-time work couldn’t be handled, and choices had to be made, and in the end, he chose writing over work, reflecting his love for this profession.

Then years passed, and he lived from paycheck to paycheck. He and Zhang Qiren worked tirelessly, even to the point of getting sick.

He absentmindedly leaned back in his chair for a moment, as if habitually massaging his lower back. Slowly, he closed the webpage and opened a document.

Writing – why was he even doing it?

This kind of fervor was fleeting, meaningless, and fundamentally represented nothing. The only thing it could touch was his own hidden emotions.

Honestly completing this world is the proper way to go. Everything else is secondary.

It was quite coincidental, as his real life encounter with a foreign enemy aligned with the plot of overseas invasion and war.

Due to Chu Tiange’s early warning and Xie Jiuxiao’s observations, the situation was under control on their side, and they were not caught off guard by the large-scale foreign invasion. Thanks to Qiu Wuji’s central coordination, a situation resembling “closing the door to catch the thieves” had formed.

Disciples of the Cloud Horizon Sect advanced, blocking the eastern sea, while Qiu Wuji personally set up a massive sword formation in the distant seas.

The influx of enemy forces was temporarily interrupted, and breaking through Qiu Wuji’s restricted area wasn’t something that could be accomplished quickly.

Meanwhile, the overseas experts who had entered earlier were merging with the demonic forces, attempting to launch a two-pronged attack from the inside and outside, seeking to overthrow the world.

The demonic forces had remained hidden in various places since their defeat in the battle between Yan Qianli and Qiu Wuji. Their essence and life force had been severely damaged, and they went into hiding, waiting for the right moment. Now was their chance, and they emerged once more, causing chaos in the world of cultivation.

This was the basic backdrop, not too cliche but not entirely original. Xianxia stories generally fall into a few templates, and ensemble cast dramas often involve various factions. The key was how it was executed specifically.

For Chu Ge, it’s not just about writing. He also needs to observe if there are any plot twists happening within this established storyline. You could say he’s one of the most exhausted authors in history. Which other author has to manage all this? He has to worry about the antagonists and his own main character. It’s just a lot to handle.

Fortunately, the world’s most powerful person is his wife, and the number one figure in the demonic path is the Little Flame. Both the righteous and the demonic sides are his people. Along with Xie Jiuxiao and Abbot Great Compassion, whom he had essentially recruited within the story, he still maintained a sense of control and confidence.

The current plot is already in progress. The demonic forces are wreaking havoc throughout the land, mainly to disrupt the righteous path’s attention, with demon-hunting campaigns happening everywhere, and no one knows what the true intentions of the demonic path are. Chu Tiange has been putting out fires everywhere for quite some time.

In reality, the demonic path’s true intention is to split into two groups. One group, led by the Nine-Headed Serpent, plans to launch a surprise attack on Yunxiao City, removing this ‘watchtower’ that overlooks the Divine Continent. The other group, led by Yan Qianli himself, is heading south to conspire with the Gu Clan, essentially consolidating the southern region.

Meanwhile, a “king” from overseas was lurking somewhere, secretly observing the situation.

In the midst of a battlefield with chaos everywhere, Qiu Wuji indeed didn’t have the luxury to focus on her romantic relationship with Chu Ge. She hadn’t even seen the detailed plot outline and was working based on what would be expected of the Cloud Horizon Sect’s leader.

“As per Chu Tiange’s report, overseas is a land of many nations. Although they might share a common goal for the completeness of the Heavenly Dao, they can’t be completely united. For example, whether to invade our land or negotiate for common advancement, there will be differences among factions,” Qiu Wuji was currently in a meeting with Xie Jiuxiao, Abbot Great Compassion, and others. “The overseas passage is no longer a secret, and Chu Tiange has drawn a rough map. Who is willing to go on a mission overseas to disrupt the enemy’s rear?”

Abbot Great Compassion said, “This humble monk is willing to go.”

Qiu Wuji questioned, “Aren’t there still significant matters at your temple?”

The significant matter referred to the Bodhi Tree, which sealed the Buddha from the Heavenly Realm and was currently under research. This was undoubtedly a top priority for cultivators of the mortal realm, not to mention that even a century of seclusion might not be enough. Yet, he was willing to take the initiative to go overseas?

Abbot Great Compassion smiled faintly, “It can be considered significant or insignificant. The Heavenly Dao is there, and the affairs of the Heavenly Realm aren’t as crucial. On the contrary, for the promotion of the Buddha’s teachings, overseas territories are untamed lands. I wish to go and spread the Dharma.”

Qiu Wuji bowed, “Great Master, your foresight is remarkable.”

“In that case, my temple is relatively weak. I hope that Sect Master will take good care of it.”

“Of course, you may proceed with your journey, Great Master. The affairs of the Hongfa Temple are my, Qiu Wuji’s, responsibility.”

On the other side, Chu Ge swiftly typed, only mentioning, “Xie Jiuxiao and Abbot Great Compassion were meeting with Qiu Wuji.” As for the meeting’s content, the characters were acting it out themselves. His main focus is on the Nine-Headed Serpent’s night raid on Yunxiao City.

“The dark night is windy, and the high clouds of Yunxiao City obscure the moonlight. The entire floating city seems to merge with the shadows, indistinguishable from the night.”

“Countless eerie figures gradually form on the ground, taking on strange shapes. Vaguely, nine thick shadows rise against the wind, slowly blotting out the sky, surrounding the entire Yunxiao City.”

“With a few light sounds, the protective formation around Yunxiao City shatters abruptly. Countless shadows swarm in, their eerie cries piercing through the long night.”

“Xie Jiuxiao was on his way back from the Cloud Horizon Sect, less than a thousand miles from the city when he sensed the disturbance. His expression changed, and he hastened his return.”

“However, a one-eyed giant slowly materialized in front of him, smiling and saying, ‘Lord Xie, this path is blocked.'”

“Xie Jiuxiao, on the other hand, remained calm and said, ‘With just you?'”

“‘I need not defeat Lord Xie, I only need to delay for a while, and that will be enough.'”

“Xie Jiuxiao burst into laughter, looking to the sky, ‘You’re welcome to try!'”

“The one-eyed giant suddenly turned around, only to witness a brilliant flash of swords within the city. Those were not the swords of Yunxiao City, but the swords that severed the ends of the earth and seized the vastness of heaven and earth.”

“Chu Tiange.”

End of excerpt.

This excerpt was purely instinctual because at this moment, Chu Ge’s consciousness was observing within the book.

Only in a true life-and-death battle can one observe if there are any variables.

Chu Tiange was currently in a fierce battle with the Nine-Headed Serpent.

He had only reached the Divine Transformation realm, whereas the Nine-Headed Serpent was a Crossing Tribulation realm powerhouse, someone who could stand on equal footing with Yan Qianli. This was a battle across realms, a typical life-and-death struggle.

In fact, Chu Tiange had encountered the Nine-Headed Serpent in a previous encounter overseas, during which he had barely escaped with his life. However, this time there was no escape; he had to protect the countless disciples within Yunxiao City, including Xie Yun’er.

The advantage was that he wasn’t fighting alone. Yunxiao City didn’t solely rely on Xie Jiuxiao; there were many Divine Transformation stage powerhouses within the city, and the city itself was a formidable treasure. With the home-field advantage, after Chu Tiange withstood the initial attack, Yunxiao City quickly organized and, in cooperation with him, faced the Nine-Headed Serpent.

Can a group of Divine Transformation cultivators take on a Crossing Tribulation powerhouse?

It depends.

When there’s a main character among this group of Divine Transformation cultivators, then yes…

But what if the father Heavenly Dao intentionally observes and doesn’t directly write the outcome?
