Xia Mu wanted to mention that big, dumb guy, but she swallowed her words.
"Don't worry about it. This is the fate of the outcasts. Neither Fenrir nor I could have escaped it before. We're already incredibly lucky to have come this far..."
Jormungandr said softly, "I am very grateful to Xia Mi. This future is what she fought for for us."
"Ah."
Xia Mu burst out of the darkness and returned to the surface from underground. The sunlight was dazzling, but he did not avoid it. He stood straight in the sunlight, with the towering building, Genji Heavy Industries, in front of him.
Although he could see ordinary people walking around normally and employees working in the building, he could sense gun barrels pointing from all directions.
They'll just wait for the order to completely wipe out the area within ten meters of him, and there might even be rocket launchers or something similar.
Hi everyone.
To everyone's surprise, Xia Mu waved...
Chapter 258 Accompany Me to the End of the World
"The patriarch."
In the cluster of Japanese-style buildings, in the central, simple and elegant living room, Tachibana Masamune sat at the head of the table, watching the video display on the wall.
Princess Kaguya was reporting: "Due to the sudden intervention of the Demon Clan, our encirclement of Natsuki has created a loophole. He has evaded our pursuit through the underground tunnel and is now at the foot of the Genji Heavy Industries building."
Tachibana Masamune's hand, which was holding the teacup, hadn't moved for a long time.
"Show me all the surveillance footage that shows him."
"Yes."
Scenes of Xia Mu appeared on the screen, nothing particularly extraordinary, but he was just so reckless, seemingly impervious to any means of harm, and he always managed to find the best route to escape.
"Stop! Rewind for one second."
As Tachibana Masamune watched this scene on the video, he slowly put down his teacup.
A bullet struck Xia Mu squarely between the eyebrows, but scales suddenly sprouted from the collar of his shirt and blocked his view. The bullet not only had no effect on him, but was also crushed into pieces of iron.
"What exactly is going on..."
Tachibana Masamune couldn't deny that he panicked at that moment.
He is now helpless against an opponent whose true depths are unfathomable.
If only I had just killed him back then...
He couldn't help but think that way.
Looking back now, Natsuki, whom I mistakenly thought was Uesugi, wasn't actually that strong. It's just a pity that Erii's identity gave him such a good protective shield, and he acted so well.
"He can act...he can even act..."
Tachibana Masamune rubbed his temples, feeling a sharp, throbbing pain in his head.
"Evacuate the Minamoto clan's heavy industry."
He waved.
At the same time, the fire alarm sounded throughout the Genji Heavy Industries building, and thick white smoke suddenly billowed from the upper floors.
Under the organization of the building staff, the crowd, though in a state of panic, left through the emergency exits in an orderly manner.
For island nations like these, which are prone to volcanoes and earthquakes, they have rehearsed this scenario countless times.
"Evacuated?"
Fifteen minutes later, Xia Mu slowly walked into Genji Heavy Industries. The entire first-floor lobby appeared to be empty.
The area outside the building had been cordoned off, and several fire trucks arrived, pretending to put out a fire.
"Bang bang bang bang..."
The intense gunfire was masked by the sirens of the fire trucks, and the gunfire was directed at the area around Xia Mu.
"Since the area has been cleared, I won't stand on ceremony."
Xia Mu took off his sunglasses and threw them aside. He stretched out his hand, recreating a scene reminiscent of the famous painting from The Matrix. All the bullets stopped in front of him, as if they had hit an invisible shield.
"Whoosh whoosh..."
The next moment, the bullets returned along the same path under the horrified gazes of the hybrids, instantly causing people to fall behind their cover, with the sound of bullets entering their bodies echoing continuously.

A burst of intense white light engulfed the entire lobby, plunging it into a sea of white, high-temperature light.
Word of Power: Blazing!
Mixed-race people are essentially blind.
Xia Mu walked straight ahead, controlling the metal in the lobby, turning it into more than a dozen blades that ravaged the entire floor, causing screams to fill the air.
"The elevator has been stopped."
He pressed the elevator button, but there was no response.
“Why not just collapse the whole building?” Jormungandr said.
Xia Mu grinned: "Don't be too murderous, Little Dragon Girl."
"Little...Little Dragon Girl?"
Xia Mu seemed to see Jormungandr's blank expression.
“Yes,” he shrugged. “The Snake Clan isn’t a real enemy to me. There’s no need to go too far. I still need them to help me dig out the White King’s bones.”
"Actually, Uesugi Erii received the Dragon King's blessing, and her bloodline issue has been resolved. Do you still intend to have her fuse with the White King's bloodline?" Jormungandr asked.
Xia Mu's expression calmed down considerably as he walked up the stairs: "If she doesn't become a dragon, how long can Erii live?"
"In the past, the dragon blood erosion depleted too much of her life force. Even if she is not eroded now, her remaining lifespan will not exceed... ten years," Jormungandr said.
"That settles it then, I have no other choice."
Xia Mu went up to the second floor, but it was empty.
He continued walking upwards.
“Xia Mu, taking this step means you will definitely be involved in Ragnarok. Think it through,” Jormungandr said seriously.
Xia Mu walked all the way to the fifth floor, but there was still no one there.
"Does this mean I can just stand aside now?"
"If you ignore her and spend these last ten years with her, you can stay on the sidelines until the end."
“I don’t understand, but I don’t need to understand, because… she has to stay with me to the ends of the earth.”
Jormungandr fell silent.
Xia Mu sighed softly... This guy still wasn't provoked.
The sixth floor was different from before. Xia Mu saw a bald middle-aged man standing in the center, carrying two ancient-looking long swords on his back.
Hei Inuyama!
"It's been a long time, Head of the Inuyama family."
Xia Mu smiled and waved.
"Among the Eight Snake Clan, I'm probably the one with the deepest ties to your interests..."
Inuyama He looked at him and sighed softly, "We could have continued to cooperate deeply in the entertainment industry and even made a fortune globally."
Apart from the contracts with mainland China, Xia Mu's management contracts have always been signed under Inuyama He's company, so it's fair to say that the two have a conflict of interest.
His upcoming Hollywood film, in particular, shows promise for international success.
It's understandable that Inuyama He felt so regretful.
“Head of the Inuyama family, this will not affect our cooperation.” Natsuki unexpectedly shrugged.
Inuyama He was stunned, his expression one of utter disbelief: "The Snake-Headed Eight Families are besieging you, yet we can still continue to cooperate?"
"Why not?"
Xia Mu smiled and said, "You're just following orders. Once the person in charge of you disappears one day, there will be no reason for you to be hostile."
"idiot!"
Inuyama He, as if pricked by a needle, suddenly drew his twin swords, shouting, "How dare you disrespect the patriarch!"
Xia Mu looked at him and shook his head: "A respectable yet pathetic loyalty."
laugh…
It was as if nothing had happened, except for a slight change in the sound of the wind.
But suddenly, more than a dozen blades flew out from behind Xia Mu, fiercely cutting around his entire body, like a storm of blades.
"Ding ding ding..."
He remained motionless, but sparks and lightning clashed violently around his body.
Word of Power: Moment!
Angers hasn't arrived yet, but Inuyama He can probably reach level 8 with 256x acceleration!
"Ding!"
The blade's edge struck him, sending up a series of sparks, but it failed to penetrate even slightly.
"While I may not be as fast as you... I possess absolute defense..."
Xia Mu spoke slowly, "Sorry, it doesn't work on me."
No hybrid can use the power of words continuously, so when Inuyama He can no longer sustain it, that will be the moment of his defeat.
"You've done your best. Take advantage of the time you still have to escape. Don't risk your life. I'm looking forward to deepening our cooperation in the future."
The sounds of collision gradually subsided.
Exhausted, Inuyama He leaned against the stairs.
"You won..."
