The facts proved that the captain of the Great Xia Airlines, who had once piloted a bomber, indeed had rich experience and extensive knowledge. He managed to stabilize the plane and, upon receiving the air traffic controllerâs instructions, landed it safely in an open area.
Passengers disembarked under the crewâs guidance and sought shelter in hastily erected tents.
Surviving the ordeal, the passengers were still trembling.
âWhat a heavy rain.â
âItâs been a long time since North State had such a heavy rain, and there was no weather forecast.â
âCould it be the Dragon King showing his powerâ¦â
Yu Xiheng handed over two cups of hot water. âAre you okay?â
âIâm fine,â Si Fuqing shook her head. She looked up and moved her fingers slightly. âThis rain is somewhat unusual.â
However, she did not sense any force of Yin-Yang or the energy surge of evolved beings.
Humans are always powerless against true natural disasters.
âWe wonât be able to leave for a while,â Yu Xiheng said. âLetâs stay here for a while.â
The center of the torrential rain was in Shan City, but the surrounding cities were also affected.
Sijiu City also experienced a heavy downpour.
This sudden rainstorm instantly exploded across major social media platforms.

Shan City was right next to Sijiu City and was also a major metropolis.
However, because it was located at the junction of tectonic plates, earthquakes often occurred, and Shan City always had earthquake prevention measures in place.
But this time, the series of natural disasters brought by the rainstorm left Shan City without adequate rescue measures, forcing them to seek external assistance.
At the Ji household.
âThat was terrifying,â Mrs. Ji patted her chest. âThose few claps of thunder frightened Qingwei so much. It took a lot of effort to get her to sleep. Luckily, we are fine here.â
Ji Longtai watched the news and shook his head. âWith such a level of torrential rain and earthquakes, many people are likely to perish.â
After watching, he didnât pay much more attention.
There was nothing he could do to help.
At this moment, there was a loud knock on the door.
Who could be visiting at this time?
It was still raining outside.
Ji Longtai frowned as he went to open the door.
His expression was initially extremely impatient, but upon seeing the emblem on the visitorâs clothing, he instantly became respectful.
âI wonder what important matter brings you two gentlemen to the Ji household?â
The Thousand Army Alliance had taken the initiative to come to the Ji household!
Ji Longtaiâs expression turned to one of pleasant surprise.
âItâs like this, everyone who joins the Thousand Army Alliance pledges lifetime loyalty to the Alliance,â the young man said indifferently. âMiss Ji Qingyao is currently on the front lines of the rescue effort, but the situation with this rainstorm is not optimistic. We need you to sign a consent form for the return of her remains.â
âThisâ¦â Ji Longtai was momentarily horrified, but a few seconds later, he calmed down. âAlright, Iâll sign it. If⦠thereâs no need to return her remains. In life, she is a member of the Thousand Army Alliance; in death, she is its ghost.â
The young manâs eyes narrowed, and his voice grew colder. âSign it.â
Without the slightest hesitation, Ji Longtai signed the consent form.
Mrs. Ji did not stop him either.
âCongratulations to both of you,â the young man put away the consent form. âFrom today on, Miss Ji Qingyao has no further ties with the Ji family.â
Ji Longtai frowned, finding the remark somewhat displeasing, but he had done nothing wrong.
Even the Thousand Army Alliance had determined that the situation with this rainstorm was not optimistic. Ji Qingyao was on the front lines, and whether she could return alive was unknown. He seized this opportunity to show the Thousand Army Alliance his allegiance to them.
Ji Longtai said, âLet me see you two out.â
From inside the house, a heart-wrenching scream suddenly echoed, âMom!â
