Soul Trigger

Chapter 583 Dowry
Meanwhile, inside the toilet, Illuminati members, who were frantically yelling into their headsets, were slamming the toilet door in anger.
What is this idiot doing?! Why did he suddenly go crazy and attack Yuanling's heir? Has he lost his mind?!
If I had known this would happen, I shouldn't have used him as the detector to search for the "Ascension Wheel" in the first place; I should have let "Sky Eye" do it...

Suddenly, he noticed the changing image on the miniature computer on his arm. His eyes narrowed, and he abruptly pressed the invisible earpiece next to his ear to switch channels.

"I didn't give any instructions, so why did the location start changing?"

A voice came from the other end:

"Lord Snowd just took command, indicating the time is right. 'Vector' did a great job."

He was immediately confused:
"Vector? His madness was instigated by Lord Snowd?!"

"No, the Eye of Truth is right here, so if he actually colludes with the core plan, everything will be exposed."

So we didn't tell him anything, but I think his 'digital detection' ability had already figured something out on its own and made a decision immediately.

Lord Snowd believed that his efforts could not be ignored and that immediate action was necessary.

"What exactly is going on? Why are they keeping it from me, the one in charge of the operation?"

“I said there is a true eye at the rally, so everything on the surface must just be a smokescreen.”

"You mean... the search for the 'Ascension Wheel' is just part of a smokescreen?" The operations commander in the restroom calmed down.

"Not entirely, but our real objective was already confirmed by 'Heavenly Eye' after we entered Shulong."

No wonder the higher-ups agreed to send this guy over to work together; the real "detector" was here:

"So what exactly is our current goal, as seen by the Heavenly Eye?"

The opposite side is a flat road:
“Seize that heir of Yuanling and take him away.”

You should join too, and hurry.

……

At this moment in the exhibition hall, Willard's hands were filled with spiritual energy, which was constantly being poured into the exhibit "The Grave Robber's Gaze".

But anyone with a discerning eye could see that the "Gaze of the Tomb Raider" in his hand was not the same as before.

This ballista device is even more miniaturized and sophisticated, and is decorated with mithril silver.

This is precisely the cutting-edge spiritual product of "the gaze of the tomb raider," namely "wild ambition."

Crafted from the personality relic extracted from the deceased Echo-class Immortal with a specialization in Sensing, it possesses a much stronger spirituality than "The Grave Robber's Gaze," and its efficacy is several times greater than the exhibit version.

And it retains a portion of its original spiritual core power:

Lucky experts. This helps the psychic tool target their goals in a more coincidental, yet more accurate way.

When Willard saw that the tip of "Wild Ambition" was pointing towards Ji Li, who was walking towards him, and that Ji Li was not avoiding the gaze of the heir of the Ling family, his eyes froze, and an absurd idea popped into his mind.

He shifted slightly, using his back to shield "wild ambitions," and smiled at Ji Li who was walking towards him.

It's him?

If something went wrong with "The Grave Robber's Gaze," causing it to point at Ji Li and malfunction strangely, then...

"Wild ambitions" would never lead to this situation.

Moreover, the range of the tomb raider's gaze is only a few hundred meters, but the Wild Wish has a range of kilometers.

If the heir of Yuanling could be identified as a "treasure" or a powerful figure within a range of several hundred meters.

However, the radius of one kilometer already encompasses the entire gathering site. No matter how outstanding Yuanling's heir is, there are still the Lord of Calamity and the King of Lonely Tomb within the range.

No matter how you look at it, ambition doesn't apply to him, which means...

He is a "treasure," not a "strongman." And the treasure lies within him!
Upon realizing this, even after holding a high position for many years, Willard's heart began to pound and his pupils dilated at the sudden discovery.

It's not impossible.

Yuanling's heir only returned to Shulong in the last few months, and several events, especially the Dragon Leap Festival in which he was involved, led to Tengjun's emergence from seclusion and the expansion of the dragon veins.

The Ascension Wheel might really be on his person...

What he didn't notice was that a pair of crimson-gold eyes were burning intensely in the corner.

Just as Willard's mind raced, considering the next steps for delivering the message and stabilizing Ji Li, the voice of his subordinate, transmitted through a spiritual spell, echoed in his ears first:

"Commissioner, there's news. The Illuminati are here."

Willard immediately turned his head, his eyelids twitching, and instantly locked onto two men in the crowd: a bearded man in a trench coat approaching from the front, and a slender, tattooed man with a buzz cut and a military bearing.
The fully echoing immortal "Rifling" and the illuminating immortal "Colonel Storm".

He glanced at Che Chan-ho, who was being escorted away by ninjas and Yuanling guards, and understood completely:
Did the Illuminati realize this before we did?
Upon confirming that the two men were clearly different from the others, he realized that the Ketonians might be planning a forceful attack, and his back was instantly soaked with cold sweat.
Oh no, we still haven't been able to get in touch with Mr. Salvador.

But we absolutely cannot let them take Ji Li away... But there isn't a single Prince of the Underworld near the exhibition hall, and with just one Imperial Guard and the other oddballs present, we simply can't stop any of them!
Just as Willard was racking his brains for ideas and strategies to snatch Ji Li away, Ji Li suddenly stopped. Hmm?
Willard looked puzzled, then glanced over and saw a figure shrouded in a black robe rushing towards Ji Li like an arrow.

A pair of eyes burning with crimson gold, and the terrifying aura emanating from them, not only gave him a jolt but also a strong, tangible feeling of being pierced through:
The Eye of Truth!

I was instantly drenched in cold sweat.
She was there the whole time?!
Shu pulled Ji Li's head close to his mouth and whispered a few words. Willard then noticed a change in Ji Li's expression:

The rumors are true; the Eye of Truth has a close relationship with the heir of Yuanling… Our plan has undoubtedly been exposed, and she is a paradox…

Willard looked at the two Illuminati members over there.

The two people also stopped in their tracks, looking at Ji Li and the other person with surprise.

The next moment, Ji Li and Shu left the field at an extremely fast speed.

The three men, each with their own ulterior motives, exchanged glances, their expressions shifting rapidly before nodding in a fleeting moment.
That's right, now it's not about which side Ji Li should be assigned to.

The problem now is that we must work together to have any chance of snatching Yuanling's heir from Paradox's grasp. As for the rest, we'll talk about it later!
In an instant, three streams of spiritual energy erupted simultaneously—

"Rifling" opened his trench coat, revealing a dense array of magic bullet guns inside. Pulling them out unleashed a barrage of bullets that bombarded Ji Li's path, raising a high wall and eliciting gasps from all sides.

Colonel Storm roared, his voice like a thunderclap, and a blue tornado rose up around Ji Li, shooting straight into the sky.

Willard seemed to have an infinitely expanding domain beneath his feet, which enveloped Ji Li, but quickly hit a wall, letting out a muffled groan.

Damn it, this is the Reflection Academy, and the Nest Master is here too. We have to hurry!

The three of them suddenly cooperated with perfect understanding, but Ji Li abruptly stopped and raised his arm behind his back.

Enveloped by the fireflies, his arm rapidly extended into a massive six-barreled machine gun, its iridescent energy barrage instantly engulfing the "rifling" figure. He then turned to Shu beside him, puzzled, and asked:

"Why are you dragging me along when these few weaklings are all nobodies? If you brought a squad of Imperial Guards over, they would have been killed by now."

A hint of panic flashed in Shu's eyes, because the reason she pulled Ji Li away was not because of these people, but for other reasons.

But the reason no longer needs to be stated by her:

"Because she didn't try to drag you away because of these few weaklings..."

A cold female voice echoed throughout the exhibition hall, and a ghostly green spiritual energy swept in from all directions.

It pierced through the storm, shattered the earth's boundaries, and transformed into a giant dog's head, disappearing into the swirling dust.

The "rifling," which had just been dazed by Ji Li's barrage of attacks, had barely risen from the smoke and dust when, before its soul trigger could even react, it was bitten to pieces by the green, ferocious kiss.

Torrential sprays of blood erupted violently in all directions—

puff! ! ! !

Screams echoed everywhere, and the calamity master's maniacal laughter gathered in the center of the exhibition hall in the eerie green wind.

Her image materialized atop the coffin encasing the "Moon Devourer":
Prison tooth smoke.

The surrounding dog-tooth ninjas immediately knelt down.

Yan Xiyu, who had transformed into a red lightning bolt and was charging towards Willard, frowned and glared at the fierce woman with green hair.

At the moment when all the fanged ninjas knelt down and the guards of the Yuanling Prince's Mansion were stunned, Cha Chan-ho finally broke free from the layers of escort, still somewhat bewildered by the scene before him:

what happened?

The blue storm swept him away in an instant; it was none other than Colonel Snowd the Storm.
"You did a good job this time, but since things have come to this, let's get out of here!"

Old Eight was full of questions:

What did I do?

But the eerie green spiritual energy that descended from the sky intercepted the storm on the spot:
"Where are you going, dear guests?"

Yuya Xun spread his arms wide, and his spiritual energy shot straight to the top of the sky:
"Today, you will witness the greatest ceremony ever..."

Her gaze settled on Ji Li, and she tenderly cupped her hands, pressing her fingers together beside her face.
"The most amazing engagement ceremony ever!"

With a click, the "coffin" beneath her feet, containing the "Moon Devourer," opened, and its contents were lifted high by layers of eerie green spiritual energy.
"My dear, are you satisfied with my dowry?"

Shu's eyes suddenly blazed with crimson gold, and Ji Li was also stunned—

The figure being carried by Yuya Kaoru like a cat was tall, with curly brown hair and large areas of vitiligo on his face.

It is El Salvador.
