At that moment, Xiao Cangqing was in a village where the suburbs met the countryside.
The surroundings were quite pleasant,
though it looked a bit run-down compared to the city.
But Xiao Cangqing hadn't dared to enter the city. Throughout his escape,

Xiao Cangqing felt profoundly grateful for the wise choices he'd made. Just as he'd feared, the Lighthouse Empire had pinned the blame on him.
Seeing Green Forest City get bombarded by the Lighthouse Empire's most advanced and bizarre weapons made Xiao Cangqing hesitate on his initial plan to return.
Just then, a news alert popped up that made Xiao Cangqing break out in a cold sweat.
'The leader of the New World Organization? How could it suddenly be me?'
