My Waste Husband

Chapter 991

Someone once proposed such a worldview.

In the world of ants, they had their development of civilization. They had their own scientists, artists, and ants who belonged to all the other professions.

They developed their own kind of science. It might even be very advanced.

Even so, their science couldn't explain everything.

For example, why big drops of hot water would fall from the sky? It would cause floods and kill countless ants.

Why would big flashes strike and destroy their colonies?

Phemonons like these came and went fast. None of the ant scientists could explain those. So they categorized them as supernatural phenomenons.

What they didn't know was that a human being spilled a glass of hot water caused the flood. And their colonies were destroyed by a driving- by car, and the flashes were its headlights.

People living in the small society created by

Recluse Association were like those ants. They believed Recluse Association when the organization told them the rock over their heads was the sky.

At this moment, Henry, Andrew, and the others were standing in front of a stone wall, which was located at the edge of the city.

Before scientists had proven the theory of spherical earth, many people had tried to reach the end of the earth. In the end, they realized that the end didn't exist.

But in this city, this wall represented the end of the world. On one side of the wall, it was the home for people living there, and the other side of the wall was full of monsters.

Standing in front of the stone wall, Andrew said, "About eight years ago, we discovered a gap that could lead us to the center of the earth. The gap shifted its location closer to us due to crustal movement. We went in and found countless of Alvin League's monsters. From that day, the battle had begun. The air here is full of spiritual matter. Cultivation of Qi is one of the most important things for everyone here. But because of the difference in talent, there aren't many Qi- controlling Realm masters. There are only about sixty people who have reached Qi- controlling Realm, and only one has reached the Transformation Realm. As for Qi-concentrating Realm, no one reached there yet."

Henry was shocked by what Andrew told him. This was only one of many small societies of Recluse Association, and there were more than sixty Qi- controlling Realm masters. Henry was in awe of the power of this two thousand years old organization. How many Qi- controlling Realm masters the organization had if put all of its societies together?

"You don't have to be surprised."

Andrew shook his head helplessly, "The number may sound scary, but it is nothing in reality. The air here makes them more sensitive to Qi. They are cultivating Qi from the moment they were born. They also have a head start because their elders would help them. Even so, there are only a couple of dozens of Qi- controlling Realm masters within the population of sixty thousand. They are too weak for those monsters."

Finished his words, Andrew sized up Henry, "I heard what you have done in the Zhu Family of the Captial. You defeated all three Mr. Zhus. I guess you are probably very close to Qi-concentrating Realm?"

Andrew didn't know Henry's real capacity. He only speculated based on the stories.

Henry smiled but did not speak.

With a sigh, Andrew continued, "You're only in your twenties, and you taught yourself to reach the later stage of the Qi- controlling Realm in less than six months. With your talent, if you were born here, you could have reached Qi-concentrating Realm already!"

"Commissioner Andrew!"

Sackcloth Visitor suddenly spoke, "I don't think your purpose today is to show Henry how miserable you are."

"You're over-worried, Sackcloth Visitor."

Andrew smiled, "I just cherish the talents. Henry is one of our own, and I personally appointed him as the prison warden. I don't need to sell him my miserable face. I just wanted to let him know more about Recluse Association."

Henry's expression did not change. Deep down, he knew that Andrew wasn't putting on a miserable look for him.

Although Andrew used a depressing tone, Henry knew Andrew's true purpose was to show off the power of the organization.

In a small society with dozens of thousand of population, everyone was cultivating Qi. That's the true power of Recluse Association! Andrew was trying to threaten Henry. Even the organization was scared of the prisoners of the eighteenth level of the City of Hell, Henry still couldn't defeat Recluse Association. People of the organization with similar talent as Henry achieved far more than Henry had done. That was Andrew's true message to Henry. At this moment, everyone was waiting in front of the stone wall. Two men walked over. They wore red cloaks, and their faces were hidden under the hoods.

The moment Henry saw them, he sensed danger. Henry could tell both of them were masters no weaker than Silver Visitor. Henry was sure that both of them had reached Qi-concentrating Realm. Andrew was definitely here to show off the power of Recluse Association.

"Please open the door."

Andrew took out a diamond- shaped badge from his belt and held it in his hand.

The two men took a look at the badge and didn't say a word. They walked to each side of the stone wall and stood at a distance of thirty meters apart. They circulated Qi on their palms and pounded heavily on the stone wall at the same time.

The moment their palms hit the stone wall, an invisible Qi wave rose upward. Then, there was a rumbling sound, and the wall that connected the top and bottom of the underground area cracked open in the middle. The two sides of the wall moved apart slowly.

"The machinery inside is powered by spiritual energy. It must take at least two Qi-concentrating Realm masters together to open up the stone wall. All the cities of Recluse Association operate like this."

Andrew explained it to Henry while, again, showing off the power of Recluse Association.

The stone wall didn't open for too wide. There was only a three-meters wide opening, which barely enough for two adult males to pass side by side. The moment the wall was open, a strong smell of blood burst out.

"Henry, in the area where there are a lot of Alvin League's monsters, we call it... Purgatory."
