179: Chapter 180 The Moon Palace Collapses, Goddesses Descend to Earth, Disdain Jiang Chen's Home as a Doghouse!

Moon, Guanghan Palace.

Just five minutes ago, this place was the focus of the entire universe, an epic battlefield where Jiang Chen gathered the power of five "soft rice" meals to shake the Inspector of the Five Dimensions.

And now...

"Buzz—snap!"

The high-dimensional crystal chandelier hanging overhead, originally used to simulate a "starry sky atmosphere," flickered a few times before extinguishing completely.

Immediately after came a series of teeth-gritting mechanical shutdown sounds.

The comfortable air, previously maintained at twenty-six degrees, began to cool rapidly, and the gravity system started to malfunction; Jiang Chen tried to take a step, but missed his footing and almost floated up to the ceiling.

"What's going on?"

Jiang Chen grabbed a pillar, looking at the flickering lights around him, "What's wrong? Did the Xihe burn the solar cables again?"

"Don't look at me!"

The Xihe was wearing that golden bikini, fanning herself desperately with a fan (which was actually some kind of high-dimensional heat sink), "I put in the most effort just now! To coordinate with that shout of yours, my Golden Crows were exhausted; how would I have the strength to burn cables?"

"Alert."

Ling's voice sounded in the darkness, her red electronic eye becoming the only light source.

"Guanghan Palace core system... overload crash."

"Reason: The energy level of that 'Five-Part Soft Rice' attack just now was too high, causing the foundation logic circuits to melt. In layman's terms, the fuse blew, and it blew the transformer along with it."

Ling paused and gave a ruthless conclusion:

"Estimated repair time: three months (Earth time)."

"During this period, Guanghan Palace will be in a 'no water, no electricity, no gas, no gravity' state. Recommendation: Evacuate immediately."

The whole room fell silent.

No water, no electricity?

For these pampered goddesses, this was even more terrifying than the sky falling.

"No! Absolutely not!"

Change was the first to jump out in opposition, "This palace takes a milk bath three times a day, needs to sleep on a temperature-controlled cloud bed, and still has to watch Earth's soap operas! How can it work without electricity?"

"I also object."

Ji Linglong hugged the broken taichu divine sword, "My sword needs spiritual energy to be nourished; even the air here is leaking now, how can I nourish the sword?"

Gu Liuli was even more extreme; she pulled a huge suitcase out of the void (it's unknown how she conjured it): "Since we can't live here, let's move. It just so happens that I also want to experience the place where my husband grew up."

Everyone's gaze turned toward Jiang Chen.

Jiang Chen suddenly had an extremely ominous premonition.

"Wait... wait! Why are you looking at me?"

Jiang Chen shrank his neck, "My house? My house is very small! Really! It's just a normal residential apartment, and it's an old, dilapidated one at that!"

"Small?"

The Xihe snorted disdainfully, "Can it be smaller than my chariot? I can even live in a car... *cough cough*, I can live in a car, so why would I be afraid of a small house?"

"It's settled then."

Change waved her hand and made the final decision, "Since it's about experiencing life, then we'll carry it through to the end. For these three months, we will live in Jiang Chen's old home on Earth."

"Pack up! Descend to the mortal world!"

...

Earth, China, Jinghua City.

Xingfu Li Residential Area.

This is a typical old-fashioned residential area, with a small square downstairs where grandpas and grandmas play chess and take walks, and upstairs, anti-theft windows are hung with cured meat and underwear. It is full of the atmosphere of human life, also known as—being grounded.

But today, this "grounding" was a bit "hard."

Xinhuo Bureau Director Lei Keming was currently wearing a military overcoat like a gatekeeper, holding a thermos, squatting in the security booth at the entrance of the residential area, sweating profusely.

"Attention all units! Attention all units!"

Lei Keming growled into the micro-microphone on his collar, "The target is about to arrive! Repeating, the target is about to arrive!"

"Clear out all those stray cats and dogs watching the fun! Get that soldier king disguised as a cobbler to be sharp! And that agent selling jianbing guozi, set up the stall steadily; don't let your hands shake when the Goddess wants to eat a crepe!"

"Remember! This is the highest-level 'God Descent'! We must turn this old, dilapidated place into the safest special restricted zone on Earth! Even if a mosquito flies in, it must be male! No, wait, it must undergo political vetting!"

Just as Lei Keming was nervously deploying,

A Wuling Hongguang, which looked ordinary but had actually undergone comprehensive bulletproof modification (for the sake of being low-key), slowly stopped downstairs at Building 6.

The car door opened.

The first to come down was Jiang Chen, carrying large and small bags with a look of lovelessness.

Immediately after.

The style of the whole residential area changed.

Change was wearing a simple white dress, but the faint moonlight halo flowing on the fabric made her look like a special effect pasted on. As soon as she got out of the car, the surrounding air became ten times fresher, and the smog automatically dissipated.

The Xihe wore sunglasses, hot pants, and a tight tank top, with her fiery red long hair tied into a casual ponytail. She stepped onto the ground, and the cement floor made a "buzzing" sound, leaving a shallow footprint.

Ji Linglong was dressed in Hanfu (actually a taichu Daoist robe), carrying a long instrument case on her back (containing the broken sword). That otherworldly immortal aura made a passing poodle kneel down directly.

Ling was the most normal, dressed in professional OL attire, but her eyes, which had no emotional fluctuations, were quickly scanning the structural strength of the whole building.

Finally, there was Gu Liuli.

This Star Alliance Princess had changed into the currently popular JK uniform, carrying a pink schoolbag, looking just like a neighbor's little sister. But the bubble tea she held in her hand had a straw that automatically tracked her mouth, and the ice cubes in the cup never melted.

"This... this is the place where husband lives?"

The Xihe took off her sunglasses, looking at the six-story red brick building in front of her, with half of its outer wall skin peeled off.

She looked disgusted: "This thing... is for humans to live in? I thought it was a shed built for stray dogs."

"Shh!"

Jiang Chen hurriedly covered her mouth, "Big sister, lower your voice! This is called 'nostalgic style'! This is called 'human touch'! Besides, this is a school district house, it's very expensive!"

"Expensive?"

Gu Liuli blinked, took out a crystal that looked like a diamond from her schoolbag, "Can it be more expensive than this? This is a stone I picked up on the road just now, and I compressed it casually, turning it into a high-density carbon crystal."

Jiang Chen took a look at the fist-sized diamond and silently closed his mouth.

Talking about housing prices with an alien rich woman was the biggest mistake of his life.

"Alright, stop showing off there."

Change, worthy of being the head wife, took the lead in walking into the hallway, "Since we're here, we'll follow the host's customs. Everyone, retract your divine power; don't collapse the building."

The group marched mightily upstairs.

Room 602.

Jiang Chen took out the key, his hand trembling a little.

He had never thought in his life that one day he would bring such an "all-star lineup" back to this small nest of only 120 square meters.

"Click."

The door opened.
