Chapter 743 Someone is coming! (3k)
“I’ll tell you everything I know, and according to our agreement, please spare my life.”
After speaking, the Ancient God Sect Leader who revealed the Ferryman’s location looked at Su Jiu’s expressionless face and begged in a humble tone.
“Li Qin, I %& you￥%…”
On the other side, the Black-clad Bishop’s forehead veins bulged, trembling on his pale face, but he dared not move because of the long sword around his neck.
The urgent tone of the two made Su Jiu and the other person almost sure it was true. After they looked at each other, Su Jiu suddenly smiled and said to the ground, “Although you answered correctly, with a score of two to one, you lost.”
“You’re not fighting fair…”
The Sect Leader’s eyes widened, staring intently at the smiling pretty face, as if seeing a god of death walking from hell.
“Sorry, these are the rules I set.”
Putting away her smile, the Blood Clan Girl’s blood eye turned cold, and she slashed the loquat branch across the opponent’s neck. As blood splattered, she shook off the blood on the loquat branch and walked towards the office.
She understood that if the other party had not mentioned the “piglets,” she might have left him to legal sanctions. However, for members of the Ancient God Sect who crossed the line, killing one was not a loss.
“I won’t die…”
On the other side, the Black-clad Bishop, who had despaired, saw this scene, his heart skipped a beat, and a look of ecstasy appeared on his pale face, almost as if he were celebrating at halftime.
“Those are her rules, I didn’t say I wouldn’t kill you.”
But before he could finish speaking, a indifferent male voice came from beside him, followed by a pain in his neck. He didn’t feel anything, but he saw an upside-down face looking at him coldly.
After kicking off the corner of his head, Ren flicked the black blood off the black sword and quietly followed.
“Room 4 in East Third, let me see…”
At the front, Su Jiu arrived at the third chain of rooms, then passed through the storage rooms, her gaze sweeping over the number plates, 301, 302…
“304, this must be it—hey, this is quite neat.”
Finally, she stopped in front of a seemingly clean door. The door and the ground looked like they were cleaned and tidied regularly, with almost no dust. Her gaze fell on the lock with the key inserted.
“There are no signs of formations, nor are there any signs of people inside.”
After inspecting with her mental power, Su Jiu put on white gloves and turned the key. The door was opened with a “click.” At this moment, Ren had already arrived at Su Jiu’s side, holding a black blade, the two of them on the left and right.
“Uncle, keep watch for me.”
After looking at each other, they nodded. The Blood Clan Girl’s eyes narrowed, she raised her blood-stained small leather shoes, and exerted force.
With a “bang,” the door was kicked open, and smoke and dust filled the inside. An office could be seen in a corner on the west side, and a faint moonlight could be seen spilling into that corner, with dust particles floating in the smoke.
When the smoke and dust dissipated, a White Crow Mask was found on the desk, and several stacks of documents were scattered in the corners of the office desk.
Without thinking too much, Su Jiu walked to the desk and first wiped the dust on the desktop with her gloved fingers, then looked at the relatively clean documents on the desk. She turned to Ren beside her and whispered,
“Uncle, this was placed here deliberately, but it’s most likely not for us to see.”
“Open it and take a look,” Ren instructed, picking up the White Crow Mask from the desk. His gaze carefully examined the silver-white thread patterns in the eye area, and his expression became increasingly gloomy.
They were exactly the same, even the details.
“Okay.”
Nodding, Su Jiu extended her fair hand, and her dark blue fingertips tore open the file bag, took out one of the documents inside, and began to read it under the moonlight…
[Blue Whale Plan]
[Executor: White Crow]
[Assistants: (A passage of illegible text), Singer (×)]
[Using eight islands in the Zhu Sha Group Islands as the guidance, and the blood of a certain number of marine creatures as the lure to cast a formation to summon a King-level God… In exchange, the God will return the body of his sister…]
Looking at the text above, Su Jiu frowned, feeling something was wrong. Some key parts were crossed out, and in addition to the deceased Singer, there seemed to be another person assisting…
Moreover, this information was given too abruptly, like a staged script.
“Could it be…”
At this moment, Ren also leaned over to look, his eyes showed thought, and he murmured, “Was the Red Tide incident caused by Senior Brother? But he has always loved the sea…”
“Uncle, you experienced Senior Brother’s betrayal, so you will subconsciously think this is true intelligence.”
Su Jiu did not agree with Ren’s words. She rubbed the text with her fingertips, and her intuition told her that this was very likely a scheme by the Ancient God Sect.
Targeting the Senior Brother whom she had never met.
Is it to let the official forces investigate him? What benefit would this bring to others?
“The mask is real, and the Red Tide can also match. He has done a lot of disgraceful things over the years, making it really hard for me to believe this kind of scoundrel.”
Ren chuckled, but his laughter was inexplicably helpless. It was as if he had returned to that day, and the sounds of the old man and Tong arguing were still vivid in his mind. He was only twenty years old that year.
It was raining that day, heavily. It was the summer he hated the most.
In the rain, the Tang Bian Youth and a short figure stood opposite each other. Their auras continued to escape, and the rain seemed to freeze.
The old man looked up at the youth and said faintly, “Are you sure you want to do this?”
“Mr. Li, I’m quitting the Night Watcher!”
The youth smiled and casually threw the Shiyu Order from his waist onto the ground. The rain splashed half a meter high, landing on both of them, and then evaporated into mist.
This action angered the Night Watchers who were watching. Some cursed, some spat, and some were regretful. Six figures silently stood behind the youth.
They were old and young, but they wore the White Crow Mask.
The old man looked at the youth deeply, then bent down to pick up the Shiyu Order, and said in a somewhat hoarse voice, “Once you leave, you are no longer Night Watchers…”
He paused, looked at the youth again, met his dark eyes, and said softly, “However, the tavern is still open for you.”
“Forget it.”
The youth paused, shook his head, and walked towards the thin youth holding the black sword in the distance. He lowered his head to meet the stubbornness in the boy’s eyes and gently patted his shoulder:
“Ren, she doesn’t blame you. live on with the flame of [Zero], strive to become stronger, until you can protect everything you cherish.”
“Senior Brother, are you really not coming back?” the thin youth asked, biting his lip. He suddenly realized that Senior Brother seemed to have returned to the way he was before, like a brother and father.
“I can’t go back.”
The youth turned and walked into the distance. With a wave of his hand, he was covered in a straw cape, black, with a hint of blood color at the hem. A crystal cross dangled by his pocket, swaying slightly.
“An arrow shot out cannot be taken back.”
…
While Ren was reminiscing, he suddenly sensed something. “This is bad!” He subconsciously put the mask into his懷, and then looked towards the direction outside the door.
“Someone is coming, and many of them.”
Beside him, Su Jiu’s expression also became serious. She put the file into her ring and also looked at the door. After a few seconds, she saw several strong figures wearing Dragon Hunter outfits rushing in.
Behind them, a thin figure stood with its head bowed, looking a bit embarrassed.
“Miss Bai, did you bring them here?”
Su Jiu shouted lightly, her blood eyes showing a hint of displeasure. She thought that this outsider Night Watcher had heard Bai Ni Si’s words, and didn’t expect her to be so unprincipled and sell the news directly…
Selling it was one thing, but selling it to these Dragon Hunters made the situation even more complicated. They even brought three War God level experts, including one Intermediate War God.
Bai Linlin lowered her head, not daring to meet Su Jiu’s gaze. Although she did not make a mistake from her perspective, she still felt uneasy in her heart.
The leading Dragon Hunter, who looked around thirty years old, wore a blood-colored hunter medal on his chest. He glanced at Su Jiu, and finally his gaze fell on Ren’s face, saying indifferently:
“Ren, the Town Guard of Fuzhou Town, why didn’t you report this case related to [White Crow] to your superiors?”
“Grand Commander, I am not an ordinary Touring Envoy, but a Town Guard, half a rank higher than you. Is this the tone you use?”
Ren calmly blocked Su Jiu behind him, and as he spoke, he raised his black long sword and pointed it forward, saying faintly.
Elder and Grand Elders who are stationed in a place are called Town Guards and have more power, while those who are not stationed are called Dragon Country Touring Envoys, and as members of assassination organizations, they only have temporary power.
“Heh heh, as the Grand Commander of Hua Nan Prefecture, I am also an Intermediate War God. Your words don’t apply to me.”
The middle-aged man said with a fake smile, completely unfazed by Ren’s threat. Instead, he looked meaningfully at the documents scattered on the ground,
“Everyone knows that our Town Guard’s Senior Brother is White Crow, and the murderer of these serial killings also wore the White Crow Mask. If you don’t know how to avoid suspicion, we can help.”
After saying that, he slightly raised his hand, and the Commander-level Dragon Hunters who followed quickly flashed their figures and surrounded Su Jiu and the other two. One of them who had reached War God level also advised:
“We are not only representing the Dragon Hunters. We have already sought instructions from our superiors before coming.”
Hearing this, Ren looked at these colleagues and sighed. He could only slowly lower his weapon. Just as he was about to ask Su Jiu to lower her weapon too, he found that her eyes were fixed on the ceiling beam.
“What’s wrong?”
He was slightly stunned.
The next moment, white flowers bloomed in Su Jiu’s eyes, her mental power was maximized, and she held the loquat branch, bent over, and assumed a defensive posture. The pale blue iris hairpin in her hair also emitted a crystal-like glow.
“Someone is coming.”
