Evacuation

Chapter 50: Evacuation

The back residence of the Wang Family had been thoroughly cleared.

Xiao Cha raised her gun and fired at Old Master Wang's forehead, blowing his head to smithereens, ensuring the zombie couldn't die any deader.

Meanwhile, Lu Li approached Wang Siqi.

Blood gushed from the man, dyeing his mourning clothes crimson, but he was still breathing, glaring with pure hatred.

Lu Li looked at a large Red Sandalwood Carved Chi Case. A glass bottle floated into his hand from it.

Inside was the "Ice Soul Powder" that Wang Siqi had tried to trick Lu Li into using when they went to the Divine Heart Society.

Having survived in Mexico for many years, Lu Li had seen too many addicts and knew the fate that awaited anyone who fell victim to it!

This cursed substance irreversibly damaged the brain, causing one to lose their self and soul, turning them into a walking corpse. To say it was a fate worse than death would be an understatement!

Therefore, Lu Li harbored immense hatred for Wang Siqi, even more than he had for Toby previously!

With that, Lu Li unscrewed the cap with one hand and pried open Wang Siqi's mouth with the other, pouring the entire bottle of Ice Soul Powder down his throat!

Wang Siqi's eyes bulged, his body trembling uncontrollly. He struggled to force out, "May you die a terrible death!"

Seeing the man's agitation, Lu Li controlled the Kunlun Mirror, standing ready, wary of any "dying blow."

Fortunately, this surprise attack was too unexpected. Wang Siqi had no defenses whatsoever and no weapon within reach.

Having just ingested a pound of Ice Soul Powder and bleeding profusely, he was completely dead within seconds.

Only his eyes remained, staring fixedly at Lu Li, filled with unwillingness.

But it wasn't over yet! The moment the man breathed his last, the waiting Kunlun Mirror suddenly fluctuated.

Two inscriptions appeared on its surface—[Soul Snatch].

Lu Li felt his Magic Treasure poised for action, ready for something, waiting for his confirmation.

Curious about what his Magic Treasure intended, he sent a confirmation command in his mind.

The next second, the Kunlun Mirror suddenly emitted a faint suction, not much stronger than a person's breath.

Yet, this small force drew out an arc of faint blue substance from Wang Siqi's eyes.

The Kunlun Mirror absorbed this substance onto its surface and stored it, without any intention of consuming it.

Lu Li was bewildered, "Is this Wang Siqi's soul? What's it for?"

With his limited knowledge of cultivation, he was understandably confused and didn't understand the purpose of this action.

Fortunately, the pile of accompanying books should provide the answers!

~~~~~~~~~~

The soul extracted during [Soul Snatch] was invisible to Xiao Cha.

In her eyes, Lu Li was merely staring intently at the corpse.

However, she could understand. He must have deeply loathed the person who had tried to trick her into smoking opium.

The young lady simply reminded him, "Lu Li, let's go get the things."

"Okay."

Lu Li nodded and followed the young lady to where the burial objects were piled.

There were several boxes of gold and silver jewelry. Xiao Cha's eyes widened, and she said regretfully, "It's a shame we can't take it all."

Lu Li was completely uninterested in these treasures. Instead, his eyes lit up as he looked at a stack of books!

Sky Light Sitting and Forgetting Method, On Sitting and Forgetting, Brain and Nerves: Telekinesis...

"Excellent! They're all related to Spirit Refining!"

Without a second word, Lu Li stuffed these books into his waistband!

"We still have to see people when we go out later, don't stuff yourself too full!"

Xiao Cha said, stepping forward to help.

She lifted her top, revealing her fair, taut waist, and tucked a copy of Strange Stories from a Chinese Studio into her waistband, right against her abs.

Fortunately, the cultivation methods emphasized profound meaning over thickness.

And since they only took books related to [Sitting and Forgetting], they hid them on their bodies without much effort.

Of course, the Wang Family was merely a prominent family in Jinmen, and these books only went up to [Sitting and Forgetting].

Next, Xiao Cha helped Lu Li strap his gun back onto his leg.

At this moment, her expression was somewhat strange.

Having personally experienced the power of firearms, even the most foolish person would notice something was amiss with these weapons.

Especially the "Children's Rifle," its material was unheard of, and its power was outrageously high, making it a veritable "miniature machine gun."

Furthermore, with a few simple adjustments, the stock could be folded, reducing its length to just over a foot.

Not to mention the magical silencer and the terrifying bullets that split into two to inflict damage!

This is a killing tool far beyond its time; even the great powers might not possess it. Where did Lu Li get it?

However, everyone has secrets, and the transcendent world especially dislikes prying. The young woman didn't ask further.

She only knew that she and the man before her were accomplices, co-conspirators, and partners in crime. That was enough~

At this moment, the suona music was nearing its end, and the mournful melody had also calmed down.

It was time to leave.

~~~~~~~~~~

This surprise raid was exceptionally smooth, and they had plenty of time. Before leaving, Xiao Cha tidied up the scene.

As a constable from a family with a deep heritage, she naturally possessed strong anti-reconnaissance skills.

After cleaning up the few flaws, Xiao Cha and Lu Li returned the way they came, leaping over the courtyard wall.

Only then did the suona music completely stop, lasting no more than 4 minutes in total.

The two calmly walked towards the mourning hall, like a couple out for a stroll.

As soon as they arrived, they saw the suona musician clutching his chest and feigning pain.

Xiao Cha's subordinates were all smirking with schadenfreude. Old Zhong explained:

"This guy saw the Governor's daughter arrive and blew too hard, causing him to pull a muscle~"

As soon as he finished speaking, a large crowd of people rushed out of the mourning hall.

It turned out the Governor's daughter had finished paying her respects and was preparing to leave.

Upon closer inspection, Jiang Haiyan's expression was even colder, so cold it was almost fierce.

Moreover, there was a vertical line on her forehead, like a closed eye.

Xiao Cha whispered, "This woman has noble blood from the Jin people; she's born with three eyes, but her bloodline isn't strong enough for them to open."

Lu Li asked curiously, "Nobles from the Jin people have three eyes?"

"You don't even know this?"

Xiao Cha was a little confused. Such a bizarre tale, like the President of the Anglo-Saxon Federation being a werewolf, should be common knowledge...

But soon, the young woman could no longer care about anything else!

Surrounding this noble lady were many unmarried young men, but the elders and uncles of the Wang Family were also accompanying her!

These people were all experts, many having undergone Marrow Cleansing and Blood Exchange. Any one of them could kill Xiao Cha with a single finger.

Yet, they had no idea about the good deed the person before them had just committed.

Xiao Cha, whether from nervousness or excitement, had a flushed face, her long legs fidgeting, her whole body trembling.

Lu Li subtly touched Xiao Cha's waist, reminding her to pay attention.

Fortunately, Xiao Cha had good self-control and immediately composed herself, though the blush on her face remained, adding a touch of allure.

The young woman felt time pass incredibly slowly. After waiting for a long time, that detestable Governor's daughter finally left.

Only after her figure completely disappeared did the surrounding crowd disperse.

Xiao Cha breathed a sigh of relief and said:

"I hate her the most. Every time something happens, she calls me over to act as a bodyguard and add to the facade. Alright~ You should go back quickly; I'll stay here."

"Then be careful."

As Lu Li was about to leave, a young man in a white suit, with a dark expression, walked over unexpectedly.

This person was clearly dressed up, his face even powdered. He was one of those who had been surrounding the Governor's daughter earlier.

But the noble lady hadn't even glanced at him, which put him in a terrible mood.

With a displeased look, he said:

"Xiao Cha, you underwent Organ Refining and didn't report it to the clan. Have you no rules!"
