A fight broke out in the rear. Mochizuki Satoru risked his life to buy time, while the king fled in panic, not daring to look back.

"Elena, what happened?"

"I don't know. Something must have happened on the island while we were away. Let's run!"

"Boom!"

A bolt of lightning swept across the vast land, relentlessly pursuing the King and Elena. Anthony, a descendant of the gods, possessed the ability to manipulate lightning. As a Nathan Guardian, he was mentally controlled, severing his connection with the tree and rendering him unable to teleport and intercept them.

As the distance shrank, and only a few meters remained, Elena knew she had nowhere to retreat, so she took the initiative to engage Anthony.

"Are you crazy? Anthony!"

"Boom!"

The only response she received was a surge of electricity that coalesced into long spears, shooting towards her, resulting in both sides suffering severe head injuries.

Wang's expression changed drastically. Unable to stop the two, she fled in disarray, frantically pulling out her phone to call her mother for help.

"Dududu..."

"call out!!"

"Da da da!!!"

More than a dozen extraordinary individuals were in hot pursuit. Wang was as anxious as a grasshopper on a hot pan, his legs felt as heavy as if they were filled with molten lead, but he dared not stop.

A few seconds later, the call connected.

"Mother, save me!! I'm on the island, I've been attacked by guards, they..."

"boom!"

Before she could finish speaking, a pebble flew by and knocked her phone off her hand.

"Your Majesty, what's wrong?!"

"Little guy!?"

The anxious voices of Li Chan and Li Muxuan came through the phone. They realized that something had happened to Wang, but they were far away and powerless to help.

"call out!!"

Wang tried to retrieve her phone, but one of her pursuers unleashed a blue energy chain that wrapped around her throat and slammed her onto the beach. The chain continued to tighten, and Wang gradually lost consciousness from suffocation.

"thump!"

Another supernatural being picked up a phone, ignored the threat coming through the microphone, and threw it into the sea.

The arrest operation was successfully completed, and the king and his two guards were taken back to the palace for rehabilitation.

Meanwhile, in the living room of a house in a small European town, Li Muxuan's face was gloomy. In his anger, his rough hand inadvertently exerted force, and the phone shattered into dust.

"Bastard!"

"I'll show you how to tear down your dilapidated palace!"

"Father, what...what should we do!"

Li Chan was extremely anxious. Not long ago, she received a phone call informing her that her daughter had abdicated the throne and gone to the Trinity Gate to atone for her sins. She had returned safely without incident. She never expected that only two hours later, she would encounter such misfortune.

"Stay here, I'm going back."

Undeterred by the Nasen guards, Li Muxuan hurriedly got up and left.

........

July 29th, 7 PM.

Inside the board office at the headquarters of Nadutong, Zhao Fangxu, Xu San, Xu Si, and a few others were eating instant noodles while sitting in front of their computers, filtering through documents about extraordinary individuals in the database.

Since the news of Feng Baobao's death came, the three have been severely punished. In addition, with the death of Liao Zhong, the head of the South China region, Zhao Fangxu has been suspended from his duties, and Xu San and Xu Si have been demoted.

"Hisssssssssss~"

The group busied themselves trying to find more clues about people in China who possessed the ability to disguise themselves, hoping to indirectly locate Feng Baobao. The supernatural forces in Tokyo refused to hand over the DNA data of the corpse, so they couldn't be sure of the truth and even suspected that it was a smokescreen.

"Uncle, you're really not lying to us?"

Exhausted after a long day, Xu Si slumped in his chair, his eyes glued to the screen for over ten hours. His mind was foggy with fatigue, and even now, he still believed that the company had probably found someone and hadn't informed them.

Zhao Fangxu shoveled a mouthful of instant noodles into his mouth, sweating profusely as he muttered complaints:

"Bullshit! If we really found it, would we hide it from you?"

"You heartless bastards! If it weren't for you and that bastard Zhang Chulan, would I have been ruined like this by you?"

"Isn't it just immortality? Do you really think it's something special? I know plenty of people in the next department who have this stuff. If it weren't for the fear of causing trouble and affecting ordinary people, the company wouldn't bother with Feng Baobao."

"Hey, calm down, it was my fault."

Xu Si quickly stopped, surprised, and changed the subject: "Is there one next door too?"

"Go away, don't try to trick me into saying anything."

Zhao Fangxu kept his mouth shut, not uttering a single word. He took a sip of hot soup, casually pushed the instant noodle container aside, and continued his investigation.

After about ten minutes, staring at the photo of the elderly man on the screen—his rebellious demeanor and the name on it—Xu San had a sudden inspiration and shouted:

"Uncle, Fourth Brother, come here, we've found something."

"Oh? They're here."

"What?"

Zhao Fangxu and Xu Si gathered around, curious about the old man on the screen.

"Is it related to him?"

"Li Muxuan! Don't you remember him?"

"This is a record I found with Nathan. This person has a blood feud with the Trinity Sect. Didn't we just see it in the documents a while ago?"

After Xu San's reminder, the two of them remembered and roughly understood what he meant.

"San'er, are you sure it's him?"

Zhao Fangxu narrowed his eyes. This was rare good news. With their current capabilities, finding Feng Baobao would be like looking for a needle in a haystack. If they could do this favor for the Sanyi Sect and get help from that living deity, they might still have a chance.

"That's right! The company has had intermittent contact with Nathan, and there are records of information about this old Deng. He's not a native islander; he smuggled himself over there in the last century, about sixty or seventy years ago?"

Xu San scrolled through the mouse, displaying more information about Li Muxuan, and spoke eloquently:

“The names match, the timing matches, the leader of Quanxing Sect faked his death using witchcraft back then, how could Li Muxuan, who was traveling with him, not have made preparations?”

Zhao Fangxu and Xu Si's hearts were pounding; their intuition told them that there was definitely a chance.

“If I remember correctly, the document we saw before mentioned that Zuo Ruotong, the 41st leader of the Sanyi Sect, was highly respected by the sect members. The 42nd and 43rd leaders were his junior brother and his disciple, respectively. Li Muxuan was the fuse that caused his death. The Sanyi Sect members will not let him go. If we use his whereabouts as a bargaining chip, we will definitely be able to get their help.”

"Moreover, Zhuge Yu in the document comes from the Wuhou School and is skilled in divination and Qimen Dunjia. Coupled with his uncle Jiang Mo's divine abilities, even if he can't find the baby directly, he can at least save a lot of effort."

Xu San copied the files to his computer, preparing to set off that very night.

"Let's go! Let's give it a try." Xu Si couldn't sit still any longer.

"Uncle, shall we go together?"

"Okay, you guys go ahead, I'll keep investigating. Keep in touch by phone."

"to make."

They hit it off immediately. Zhao Fangxu stayed in the office, while Xu San and Xu Si used their remaining authority to travel to Sanyi Gate by helicopter.

.......

April 7, 30:3 in the morning.

On the fourth floor of the Sutra Repository, Jiang Mo was still awake. He was full of energy, his spirit eternally residing in the three realms, constantly cultivating and accumulating knowledge.

Right now, he's examining the three jars of bullet ants stored in special containers, establishing a preliminary spiritual connection with them, and chatting casually.

These mutated creatures possess intelligence approaching that of humans, yet they are ignorant and naive, like newborn children. Their previous manic, painful, and bloodthirsty emotions stemmed from the effects of drugs within their bodies.

After things calmed down, things became much more peaceful. The three little creatures were also quite surprised, because Jiang Mo was the only human they had been able to communicate with in the past few years. They even regarded him as one of their own and envied his freedom.

With a "bang!", Jiang Mo lowered his gaze, activated his true magic, and the jar-shaped container was decomposed into wisps of white mist. The three bullet ants left the cage and excitedly crawled around Jiang Mo's fingers.

"Uncle-Master, these little guys seem to really like you? Are you communicating with them?"

Chengzhen looked at the scene before him and felt curious. He took a piece of mung bean cake, put it on the table, and fed it to the three bullet ants.

"Yes, they treat me like one of their own. If I'm well cared for, I have great potential for the future."

Jiang Mo gazed at the small, dark figure eating on the table, his thoughts drifting away.

When his avatar swept through the various states of supernatural forces, he saw many half-human, half-supernatural creatures, but he never saw any powerful non-human beings.

Will it happen? It probably will.

Jiang Mo muttered to himself. He didn't know either, but he had a vague premonition that in some hidden corners of the world, there must be creatures as powerful as him, or even more powerful than him, and that he might have the opportunity to communicate with them in the future.

"eat...."

"You eat too..."

A faint mental fluctuation came, and the three-headed bullet ant dragged pieces of mung bean cake crumbs to Jiang Mo's fingertips.

"I'm not hungry, you guys eat."

Jiang Mo responded with a faint smile, saying that he quite liked these little guys and decided to raise them as spirit pets.

"Buzz!"

Colorless ripples appeared in the space, and Zhuge Yu's figure appeared, a look of surprise still lingering on his face. He brought a message.

"Uncle-Master, Senior Brother, people from the company outside are requesting an audience. They claim to know Li Muxuan's whereabouts."

"?"

Chengzhen frowned: "Bring him in."

Chapter 282 Equal Trade, Li Muxuan's Signs Revealed

Upon arriving at Sanyi Gate for the first time, Xu San and Xu Si felt refreshed and invigorated. The air here was completely different from that in the bustling city outside, and staying here made them feel their bodies relax unconsciously.

Under a sky full of stars and a bright moon, towering palaces were bathed in the silvery moonlight, appearing ancient and sacred.

Xu San and Xu Si were gradually engrossed in watching when suddenly their vision blurred and the scene shifted, and they found themselves on the fourth floor of the Sutra Repository.

Several white-haired powerhouses seated at the front, their expressions devout and respectful, surrounded a young man in black who sat cross-legged on the ground. His identity was self-evident. Xu San and Xu Si immediately bowed and said:

"We, Xu San and Xu Si, greet Venerable Xuan and all the seniors."

"sit."

Jiang Mo smiled slightly at them, gesturing for Zhuge Yu to pour tea for the guests.

"Thanks..."

"Please forgive me for disturbing you so late at night."

The Xu brothers accepted the teacups, appearing somewhat reserved. The elder they were speaking to was undoubtedly a legend standing at the pinnacle of extraordinary individuals worldwide.

The other senior figures also held incredibly high positions and possessed unfathomable strength, making them far more formidable than any leader of a major sect or faction they had ever encountered before.

Although the Xu brothers were extraordinary individuals, their cultivation level had not even reached the threshold of Grandmaster, making them worlds apart from the Sanyi disciples present. They dared not put on any airs.

"It doesn't matter."

Jiang Mo remembered these two young men; he had seen them during the battle at Longhu Mountain and knew they were from the company. He decided to skip the unnecessary steps and said:

"Let's skip the formalities and tell us your conditions. Do you want us to owe you a favor, or do you want us to help you, or do you want us to take away the Eight Extraordinary Techniques?"

Jiang Mo was not surprised that they had tracked Li Muxuan's movements; with the company's nationwide intelligence network, it was only natural that they could do this.

"This...please forgive me, sir."

Jiang Mo's directness surprised Xu San and Xu Si. Now that things had come to this, there was no need for them to hold back, so they spoke frankly:

"Feng Baobao, the little girl you know who was created by the Eight Extraordinary Techniques, she went missing some time ago and her whereabouts are currently unknown. We would like to ask you and Senior Zhuge from our sect if there is any way to rescue her?"

"I'm not a warlock, there's nothing I can do."

Jiang Mo frankly admitted that Xu San and Xu Si were frozen in place, seemingly quite surprised that even the living god they had placed the greatest hopes on was helpless.

The two looked to the other disciples for help, hoping to find another way through Senior Zhuge.
