Chapter 109 - Who in the World Can Fly?

The city center.

Longye walked aimlessly through the streets, looking at the towering buildings all around, feeling as if he were in a maze, with no idea where to go.

Even when he tried to send out his divine sense to investigate, he could feel some kind of power in this world obstructing him, preventing its release.

Unable to use his divine sense, he could only observe with his eyes, just like a mortal.

However, as he walked, there were people coming and going everywhere, so many that they were impossible to count.

There were simply far too many mortals in this world. He felt that this city alone had at least several million people!

To search for a trace of Lord Demon Sovereign among these millions of people one by one was no different from looking for a needle in a haystack.

Perhaps I should first find a high vantage point, get a general outline of the entire city in view, and then decide where to start searching for Lord Demon Sovereign…

Longye was lost in thought as he walked, and before he knew it, he had arrived at the side of a road.

A crowd of people stood at a crosswalk, waiting for the red light.

Hmm? Why have these mortals stopped moving?

Oh well, it's none of my business.

Longye looked curiously at the crowd that had suddenly stopped in front of him. Not understanding why, he walked straight through them and, without a second thought, proceeded onto the road with its dense traffic.

The crowd waiting for the red light saw this and couldn't help but look stunned.

Seriously, bro? You're just gonna jaywalk like that?

You're not afraid of dying!

If you're going to jaywalk, at least find a place with less traffic! You dare to cross with this many cars?!

As Longye walked to the middle of the road, speeding cars were forced to either swerve to avoid him or slam on their brakes.

In an instant, the previously smooth-flowing road became congested.

The driver of a car that had nearly hit him broke out in a cold sweat. He couldn't help but roll down his window and start yelling at him:

“Are you fucking blind! Didn't you see the red light!”

“Are you trying to die?! Asshole!”

“If this was a bigger truck, you'd be dead already!”

Longye's brow furrowed. He turned his head coldly to look at the cursing driver and slammed a fist onto the car's hood.

BANG!

With a heavy thud, the entire front of the Hummer caved in!

The male driver was dumbstruck with shock, unable to say another word.

Other drivers who had been about to start yelling as well saw this and silently swallowed their words.

Almost all the drivers stopped at the crosswalk simply watched him go with their eyes.

Why are the mortals of this world so noisy, always cursing people for no reason…

If it weren't for the fact that I'm looking for Lord Demon Sovereign and don't want to cause unnecessary trouble, for his disrespectful attitude, I would have slapped him and the car into pieces!

Longye walked on, silently passing judgment on the mortals of this world.

After crossing the road, he stood on the street and scanned the towering skyscrapers, looking for the best vantage point.

A central tower, a head taller than the other skyscrapers, came into his view.

Looking around, it seems that's the tallest building. That's the one!

Longye leisurely walked to the base of the Central Tower and looked up at its peak.

A woman standing by the roadside noticed him, sized him up curiously for a moment, then lowered her head to look at her phone again.

In just that brief moment, Longye bent his knees slightly, and with a standing jump, he instantly turned into an afterimage and flew straight to the top of the tower.

The woman caught a glimpse of something flash past out of the corner of her eye. When she looked up again, she saw nothing, and the man who had been standing there a moment ago was gone.

“Th-That spot... wasn't there a man there who just suddenly disappeared?”

The woman looked left and right, and after confirming the man's figure was gone, she asked her companions in astonishment.

“Was there someone there just now? I wasn't paying attention.”

“If he's gone, he just left. What else could it be? Don't make a big deal out of nothing.”

“Don't tell me he was some handsome guy you couldn't bear to see go?”

“No, it's not that! The guy, he seemed to... fly into the sky!”

The woman tried her best to explain.

She felt that she hadn't seen wrong just now. The man really had, in the moment she lowered her head, shot up into the sky and disappeared in the blink of an eye!

“Flew into the sky?”

Her companions were stunned for a moment, then couldn't help but roar with laughter.

“Hahaha, flew into the sky~”

“Are you telling a joke? Who can fly?”

“You really cracked me up~”

Amidst the women's teasing and joking, the woman's face flushed red, and for a moment, she began to doubt herself.

That's right, who in the world can fly…

I must have seen it wrong…

The woman silently chided herself. She casually glanced up and froze.

I think I see a figure faintly standing on the edge of the Central Tower's roof…

……

On the roof of the Central Tower.

Longye stood on the edge of the building, looking down from on high at the entire night view of the Magic Capital.

He never thought that mere mortals could create such a prosperous metropolis in this world.

It was just that these towering skyscrapers and the countless number of people made him frown, feeling troubled.

In such a large and dense city, how was he to find Lord Demon Sovereign?

Never mind Lord Demon Sovereign; right now, he couldn't even contact Meizhi and Yingnü.

Longye stood at the edge, thinking for a long time. Unconsciously, the noise from below grew louder, and more and more people began to gather.

“Look, you guys! There's a person up there!”

“It's true! He's standing right on the edge!”

“How did he get up there?”

“That's not important! The important thing is, it looks like he's lost all hope and is going to jump!”

Just then, firefighters and police arrived one after another, setting up a cordon to maintain order.

The person in charge held up a megaphone and shouted up at Longye on the roof:

“You up there! Come down quickly!”

“Whatever you do, don't lose hope! Life is still beautiful!”

“Think of your parents! Think of your children! Think of your friends! There's no hurdle in life that you can't get over!”

“...…”

“What are these mortals jabbering on about?”

Listening to the noisy crowd below, Longye frowned. He looked around, but there was no one else besides him.

Where is this person who's lost all hope? Why don't I see them?

“It really is you…”

Seeing the crowd below gathering, Longye was just about to leave when a familiar voice suddenly sounded from behind him.

Longye whipped his head around, his eyes showing incredulous surprise. He saw Lin Fan standing behind him at some unknown point.

“Lord Demon Sovereign?!”

With that, Longye strode forward, placed a hand on his chest, and dropped to one knee.

“This subordinate, Longye, greets Lord Demon Sovereign!”

Lin Fan raised a hand wearily.

“Alright, get up.”

After learning from Meizhi that the other three Great Demon Generals had also arrived, he had immediately gone out to search for them, standing high in the sky and looking down over the entire Magic Capital.

Hearing that the commotion here was especially large, he had hurried over to take a look, and sure enough, it was another one of the Four Great Demon Generals.

“Tell me, what are you doing here?”

“Lord Shang said that we were not to attract too much attention in this world. Therefore, this subordinate wanted to use the high ground here to search for you, Lord Demon Sovereign.”

Longye explained respectfully with his head bowed.

Lin Fan glanced at the crowd of indeterminate size that had gathered below, then shot a speechless look at Longye.

You've already made yourself extremely conspicuous, you know…!

The whole city is talking about someone trying to commit suicide by jumping off the Central Tower...

“Come with This One. This is no place to talk.”

Sensing that people were about to come up to the rooftop behind them, Lin Fan placed a hand on Longye's shoulder and, in an instant, vanished with him in a flash.

When the rooftop door opened, everyone was baffled.

There wasn't a single soul on the roof of the Central Tower…
