Stuck in a Chinese novel

I finally fixed chapter 276 which was a headache because of some rules and regulations.

And also because I had to pull an all-nighter.

Anyway, it's fixed now so you can read it. Enjoy!

"The barrier is down!" The man who was at the scene yelled and made his way to the facility along with his men. They didn't know what the situation inside was but they knew one thing for sure and that was that the biker was inside.

While the backup was on the way, they couldn't wait for it because the biker could flee at that moment. So even if they couldn't stop the biker, they could at least stall him until the backup arrived.

"We have to keep him here!" The official yelled before they entered the facility but as soon as they did, they all froze.

"I'm afraid that would be a little difficult for you. After all, you're all frozen here." The voice they heard was gentle yet full of power. Although their bodies were frozen, a chill went through their bodies which wasn't the frozen kind.

Fear enveloped them as a figure walked past them, his clothes white in color. The black-haired man didn't even turn to look at them and kept walking until he was out of their sight. They were all left behind, frozen in fear and frozen in real as well because none of them could move a muscle but even if they could, they would never even think of doing so because whoever that black-haired man was, he was out of their league. They should just count themselves lucky he didn't kill them.

"You." Wei Jun was confused or shocked, he couldn't even tell himself.

"Me." A middle-aged man playfully said before his expression turned downcast and he said, "You don't even seem surprised to see me."

"Oh, I'm surprised. I'm very surprised to see you, sect master." Wei Jun said as he took a step back.

That was correct. The one who called Wei Jun was none other than his sect master, the current sect master of the Thunder Cloud Tempest sect. Wei Jun didn't know what was going on but given the fact that there were no warning bells ringing up in his gut or no sirens in the distance, he at least knew he wasn't in danger.

Or at least that was what he believed in because he knew there was no way he would be able to defeat that monster.

"Relax," The sect master said before he stepped forward, "I'm just here to take you out of here."

"Why?" Wei Jun asked, even though he knew he should be just happy such a strong help came for him but he couldn't help but be paranoid about it. Wary was the word to go to but when it came to the people who were truly strong, he wasn't just wary, he was straight-up paranoid.

"I was asked," The sect master replied.

"By who?" Wei Jun asked.

"I can either tell you, or we can get out of here because if we didn't very soon, a very troublesome old man would come. I wouldn't be able to guarantee your safety then." The sect master clearly avoided the question but the reason he used could have been completely sensible and Wei Jun was smart enough to know one simple fact. Expect any random and the most illogical thing in this messed up world.

"Okay." Wei Jun simply said and stepped forward. The sect master moved and in an instant, he was before Wei Jun and before he could even react, the scenery in front of his eyes changed to greenery.

His first thought was that he was in the middle of a dungeon again which wasn't a good experience last time but he was relieved to see a building on the other side of the green forest.

Wei Jun turned to ask the sect master some questions but just as he turned, there was no trace of him.

"What the…? Where did he go?" Wei Jun asked no one in particular.

[Gone]

[He left the moment he dropped you]

Came a reply from the system which didn't really help Wei Jun but before he could follow up, a single notification appeared in his view.

[The paused update can now be continued]

Before Wei Jun could even think about it, a sound came from the system.

[Uh-oh]

'What do you mean by uh-oh? What does uh-oh mean?' Wei Jun asked as he somewhat panicked. He didn't quite like this part so he was very, very worried about it.

[Weeellll~~~]

[You remember how the first update went?]

[This time there are two]

'So, twice as bad, right?'

Wei Jun was sure he would be able to bear the horrifying pain from back then, and if that pain was twice as hell, he still would be able to tough it out if he had to.

[Yeah, well, except]

[You know how in those ridiculous riddles one always fails where the question is what's 1+1]

'Two!' Wei Jun hurriedly replied as an ominous sense struck him.

[Yes]

[Logically]

[But sometimes]

[1+1 is 11]

'You bleep son of a bleep whose bleep are deep in scorching bleep bleep bleep bleep bleeeeeeeeeepppp.'

[Wow]

[Never knew you could be more passionate than that]

"BLEEP YOU!!!!"

[You just said bleep]

"FU*K YOU!!!"

[Now was the real one]

[Main quest IV complete]

[An update will start soon]

[Brace yourself]

Somehow the warning from the actual robotic system was even worse.

Quake!!!

The whole earth shook. Wei Jun turned in the direction of the city where tall skyscrapers could be seen. Wei Jun knew it was the familiar city in which he had been living for the past few months.

But right now, dark clouds enveloped the entire city, and the thunder crackled above them. The shaking of the ground only worsened as time passed by and it wasn't long before the ground split up.

'Wait. Ground split up?'

Something that never happened before happened. The ground literally broke apart and the tear in it widened to the point it felt like the whole city would be swallowed up in it.

The pushed-up buildings were heading closer to the mountains and the mountains themselves were moving away from the approaching city. Everything was expanding and when something would expand, it was usually because they were making space for something bigger and newer.

And wasn't he right?

Throomm!!!

Buildings taller than before rose up in the sky in the middle of the already-standing buildings. And it wasn't just the buildings either. New houses, new roads, new everything was sprouting from left and right.

It was a scene Wei Jun hadn't ever seen even in his wildest imagination even if the fact had to be noticed that Wei Jun had no such thing as imagination.

But his days as a realist were probably over as he saw the scene of the entire city rearranging itself and new things appearing in the midst of it.

However, the best part hadn't even arrived yet. The part Wei Jun was in no way looking forward to.

"AAAARRGGGHHH!!!!!!!"

Pain.

A lot, lot, lot of pain.

"Find them!" A man yelled to the rest of his subordinates as he himself got busy searching for the survivors. Today had been an epic fail. They lost the organization the CSF literally came into existence for and then they also lost the man who brought the law enforcement of the city, of the whole empire, to its knees and then spit in their faces by escaping from their hands.

If that wasn't worse already, then the fact that they lost a lot of officials in that mission of theirs was even more of a disgrace they would never be able to erase. Even if they were to capture the biker and end him, the losses they recurred that night would remain with them forever to come.

"This is going to be a headache to report to the top brass." The man said as he tried to enter the facility. As he did, he found a lot of bodies among them. All of his comrades lay lifeless on the ground, never to be awoken again.

They were killed by some sort of a sword from the wounds on their bodies. He ignored them and looked for survivors until he arrived at a room that was broken more than the others.

As he entered, the first thing his eyes fell on was the headless body of a girl. She was naked, but other than fact, she was also glowing.

As he searched for the head, he found it lying not far away from the corpse.

"Rin?" He questioned himself, unsure whether or not the face he saw was the same one or someone else because the Rin he was familiar with was a little, little, little different from how he remembered.

"You cannot compare an angel with a human." The man heard a benevolent voice and hurriedly turned, panicking that it was an assailant but he calmed down when all he saw was an old man with a long white beard, a head full of white hair, and clothes of the same color.

"Who are you, Sir?" The man warily asked. There was a very good chance that the old man was a CSF top official given that this place was only allowed for the people of the CSF and this old man had to have passed through proper checkups.

"I didn't." The old man said.

"Pardon?" The man asked.

"I didn't pass the proper checkups and I have been here since the beginning of this event." The old man said which only confused the man. The old man chuckled and said, "Very well. Since your brain cannot comprehend it anyway, why don't you just sleep?"

It wasn't a suggestion. The old man simply waved his hand as soon as he stopped speaking and the man fell asleep.

The old man ignored him and stepped towards Rin's headless body. He waved his hand and the head floated over to him which he grabbed with utmost care by the hair and then also took the body, disappearing into a white-colored hole that appeared out of nowhere.

And all that was left was silence.
