"I advise you not to go too far, otherwise, if we fight to the death, it will definitely not benefit you either."
Grandmaster Long Zaitian, his eyes sharp, was still searching for the person lurking in the shadows.
No matter how hard he searched, he couldn't find the person in the shadows, which made him feel even more gloomy and terrified.
Three minutes passed, Long Zaitian noticed that the person in the shadows was not speaking, which made him very unhappy.
"Sir, what exactly do you want?"
Xiao Tian, hidden in the shadows, remained silent. What did he want? He figured that since Grandmaster Long had already misunderstood his identity, why not just accept that he had made a mistake?
Suddenly, Xiao Tian had a wicked idea.
"So? What do you want?" Xiao Tian asked rhetorically.
Grandmaster Long's expression darkened, and he became somewhat certain that the Bodhi Group probably really knew what he had done in Luo Cheng.
"Do you really have to keep going on like this, relentlessly? Even a rabbit will bite when cornered!"
Xiao Tian, hidden in the shadows, almost burst out laughing, and continued his soul-searching question, "You're a rabbit? You?! Who can you bite?"
Long Zaitian felt deeply humiliated, his eyes turned fierce, and the energy within his body gradually became violent.
"Sneaking around like this, have the guts to come out and talk it out. I'll settle things with you, or I'll force you to come out and kill me."
Seeing Grandmaster Long Zaitian's apparent exasperation, Xiao Tian found it amusing and continued to provoke him, saying, "You think you can just come out like that? You're like a rabbit in a corner, aren't you? Then come and bite! I'm afraid you can't even pinpoint my location. Heh!"
Long Zaitian's expression changed involuntarily, his heart filled with immense anger. As a powerful Shackle Realm, he could get whatever he wanted in Luo Cheng, and it had been a long time since anyone had dared to provoke him like this.
"I'll count to five. This is your last chance. In five seconds, I, Long Zaitian, will make sure you die a horrible death! I, Long Zaitian, mean what I say!"
Grandmaster Long has started playing psychological warfare. His expression is cold, and he appears calm, composed, and at ease, as if he has the whole situation under control.
Xiao Tian, who was observing the outside world from inside the Kamui Dimension, couldn't help but laugh, bursting into laughter.
The laughter lasted for five seconds, a slap in the face to Grandmaster Long.
Long Zaitian's palms began to sweat. The person in the shadows was truly terrifying. He had already deployed his mental network, radiating outwards. Even Shackle Realm Evolver knew invisibility could be sensed by him.
Long Zaitian was filled with dread. Just how powerful were the experts from the Bodhi Group?
Could it be the legendary telepathic communication? Is the real body spying on him from an extremely distant place using advanced technology?
Thinking about it this way, Long Zaitian felt it was increasingly possible, and a vague unease began to creep into his heart.
"Your Excellency, you have truly angered me."
Xiao Tian was laughing so hard he almost fell to the ground. This Grandmaster Long was truly a show-off.
" Grandmaster Long, I truly pity you. You are still so weak and vulnerable."
Upon Long Zaitian's eyes narrowed. These words reminded him of a terrifying being he dared not recall, a horrifying figure like Yanluo King of Hell.
"Are you one of Jiang Xuan's men?"
Jiang Xuan?
Xiao Tian was surprised. The name evoked his memories. According to the Primordial Hongmeng Plan, in the Blue Star section, Jiang Xuan was a high-ranking member of the Jiang Family family of the Bodhi Group. He was also a messenger closely connected with the Jade Void Jade Void Palace, one of the Three Great Sage Lands of Country H. According to the plan, he was a minor character with a significant presence who would help the protagonist of the plan, Chu Feng.
Xiao Tian quickly grasped the situation; it turned out that Grandmaster Long had a grudge against the Jiang Family.
He could hear a slight tremor in the man's voice when he uttered the name Jiang Xuan; it was a fearful, almost uncontrollable dread.
"Hehehe... So many years have passed, and you still remember? Do you know why I didn't attack you directly?"
Long Zaitian frowned deeply and sneered, "Haven't you Jiang Family broken your promises enough? Do you think I'd believe you?"
" Long Zaitian, considering the good deeds you've done for Luo Cheng, I'll give you a chance."
Upon Long Zaitian was alarmed and couldn't help but wonder if the people from the Bodhi Group hadn't discovered what he had been doing.
"What do you mean?" Long Zaitian felt a surge of hope. He had done it discreetly, and no third party knew about it. Although the Jiang Family the Bodhi Group was incredibly powerful, they shouldn't find out so easily, right?
Within the Kamui Dimension, Xiao Tian's lips curled into a cold smile. "Tell me about the strange occurrences in Luo Cheng. Recount to me every single detail of your actions."
Xiao Tian was bluffing; he didn't know why Luo Cheng was marked with a dangerous, hostile red cursor on the world map in his mind.
Grandmaster Long Zaitian, a prominent figure in the city, may be involved.
Upon hearing Long Zaitian was deeply shocked and his body trembled slightly.
"They found out! They found out after all! I knew it! Why did the Bodhi Group send these three mysterious guys to Luo Cheng? They must have found out!"
Within the Kamui Dimension, as an avatar of the Undying Deva Path, Xiao Tian had seen all sorts of people. He possessed a keen insight into the myriad aspects of the world and the inner thoughts of people, as well as a vast amount of data analysis, simply by observing their facial expressions and eyes.
Xiao Tian immediately realized something was off about this guy; he'd been tricked correctly.
Xiao Tian couldn't help but laugh.
Grandmaster Long heard the mysterious person laughing in the shadows, and his face darkened. He asked, "What are you laughing at?"
"I'm laughing at your utter ignorance. You think you can get away with what you've done? Little do you know we've already found out. I'm giving you a chance, but don't be ungrateful. With your abilities, you should know you can't beat us. Don't even think about running away."
Long Zaitian narrowed his eyes, wondering if this was a bluff.
"Ridiculous! Since when did you start interfering with my killing of useless women and children, such a shameful thing? Now that I've successfully escaped from there, you can kill me, but you have no right to interfere."
Xiao Tian sneered; this guy was still putting on an act.
The cold laugh sent a chill down Grandmaster Long's spine. He thought to himself, "So I can't fool them after all?! They've really found out?"
Long Zaitian wasn't the kind of fool who would readily lay down his arms; he would never let an opportunity slip by until he was completely desperate.
call out!
In the darkness, Long Zaitian moved at supersonic speed, escaping at an incredible pace.
Seeing this, Xiao Tian couldn't help but sneer. He came out of the Kamui Dimension and used the Ruyi Divine Ability Seventy-Two Transformations to transform into a very small dragonfly. He then used the Kamui Intangibility the space and leap over to intercept it.
"Escape? It seems you truly don't care about your own life."
boom!
Long Zaitian, leaving a charred, torn trail behind him. In front of him was a large crater, from which a terrifying aura of flames emanated. Had he been any slower, he would have been struck.
"What terrifying power! What a bizarre attack!"
Long Zaitian was shocked. He hadn't expected the mysterious man to be so powerful, Bodhi Group to be so cautious with him this time.
Long Zaitian felt terrified; he feared he truly wouldn't escape his fate today.
"Why are you running? It's pointless. I told you, if I wanted to kill you, you would have been dead already."
Long Zaitian's face was grim. He looked around and said, "What do I want?"
"Hehe, you should behave yourself. Next, write down all your mistakes in a letter of apology and confession. I will submit the letter, and then we'll see how your merits and demerits balance out. That's up to your own fate."
Do merits and demerits cancel each other out?
Long Zaitian was surprised. When did the Jiang Family of the Bodhi Group become so humane? Was this still the Jiang Family of the Bodhi Group he knew?
Long Zaitian's first reaction was that something was fishy.
"Your Excellency, you seem to be joking."
Within the Kamui Dimension, Xiao Tian sneered. This guy had reached this point and was still stubbornly refusing to listen. It seemed he had no choice but to give him a strong dose of medicine.
" Long Zaitian, I advise you to just be honest and do as I say, otherwise you'll understand why the Hua'er are so red."
In an instant, several fire snakes Fire Python appeared in the crater that Xiao Tian had blasted open. They were extremely intelligent and terrifying. In the blink of an eye, they arrived in front of Long Zaitian and were about to swallow Long Zaitian up.
At this Long Zaitian finally understood the difference between himself and this mysterious figure.
"Damn it! I can actually sense the presence of death!"
Long Zaitian felt a chill run down his spine, and a coldness spread through his body, making his body feel unresponsive.
"Good!"
He didn't want to die; he still had unfinished goals. To die in Luo Cheng, especially at the hands of the Bodhi Group and the Jiang Family family, would be such a loss.
Inside the Kamui Dimension, Xiao Tian sneered, "Go ahead, I'll be watching you. You can't escape my surveillance. In this world, you're definitely not the only one who can escape my watch."
Long Zaitian's face was gloomy, and he remained silent before turning back.
Back in the villa, Long Zaitian went to his secret room, a place of absolute safety where he could be sure he would be all alone.
"Are you going to write it or not?"
Long Zaitian was extremely unwilling, his eyes filled with humiliation and anger.
" Bodhi Group! Still as domineering as ever! As long as Long Zaitian, he will destroy you all sooner or later!"
Inside the secret room, Long Zaitian began to brew tea, preparing to rest properly. He decided to escape first and leave Luo Cheng.
"Heh heh heh... Still trying to play tricks? You really think you can do whatever you want just by hiding in this little secret room? You think I won't find you? I gave you a chance, but it seems you didn't cherish it at all."
Long Zaitian, who was enjoying his tea, suddenly changed his expression. He felt as if someone was grabbing his neck, and he saw a snow-white hand suddenly appear out of thin air, like a ghostly hand.
Long Zaitian was terrified and filled with horror.
"I didn't even sense him! Has his Invisibility Technique technique surpassed my mental strength? Could he have reached the Late Shackle Realm? Or even the peak?"
Long Zaitian was terrified. The Jiang Family of the Bodhi Group must be thinking too highly of him, actually sending such a powerful person!
"Your Excellency! I... I was wrong! Cough cough... Your Excellency, please give me another chance. I will definitely change my ways."
In the past, Xiao Tian would have simply sneered and snapped Long Zaitian Zaitian's neck. But the current situation was different; he wanted to know why Luo Cheng was marked as a red cursor on the world map.
"Hehehe! Long Zaitian!"
Long Zaitian felt the force on his neck growing stronger, and he was horrified. At this moment, he truly felt the breath of death.
"Your Excellency! Stop! Let's talk this out! I, Long, will tell you everything I know. I have many more ancient artifacts and rare treasures that I can offer you!"
"Hahaha! Long Zaitian, you've finally realized the value of things."
Feeling the pressure on his neck ease slightly, Long Zaitian was able to catch his breath, feeling both frustrated and sneer inside.
"As expected, the Bodhi Group is still the same old thing."
" Long Zaitian, I've given you your chance. Cherish this last opportunity and offer me the treasure you've obtained. Afterward, write a proper letter of apology."
"Yes, Your Excellency." Watching the hand disappear into thin air, Long Zaitian's eyes narrowed, his heart filled with horror.
"Still can't detect him, this person is too strong!"
This time, Long Zaitian dared not take any chances. Although he had many other lightly lethal and terrifying firearms capable of killing Evolver, he did not believe they could kill such a powerful being at the Shackle Realm.
The Shackle Realm is equivalent to King Level creature among spirits. Powerful King Level creatures can ignore the damage from the Wood-Sea Bullet, and the human portion of the Shackle Realm is even more extraordinary.
Long Zaitian took out paper and pen, gathered his thoughts, and began to write down what he had encountered and done in Luo Cheng.
"Write carefully. If it differs significantly from what we've found, or if you've even concealed anything, your fate won't just be death. You should understand that it's very easy for us to make you wish you were dead, hehehe..."
Long Zaitian's face was grim. He couldn't help but recall the cruel days in the Elite Life-and-Death Camp of the Bodhi Group. He really didn't want to remember those nightmarish memories again, and he didn't want to go back to those days at all.
That place was even more appalling than the world's most terrifying prisons; it was simply not a place fit for human beings!
Those who manage to emerge from there are either insane, incredibly powerful and reduced to puppets, or corpses that are carried out.
His ability to break free back then was due to a multitude of unforeseen circumstances and a great deal of good fortune; at one point, he even considered himself the chosen one.
But as time went on, he realized that he was nothing; the clown was himself.
Within the Kamui Dimension, Xiao Tian watched Long Zaitian wrote down everything he had done in Luo Cheng on a piece of paper, ignoring the meaningless actions on the first few pages. Xiao Tian was so eager to leave the Kamui Dimension and give this idiot a good beating.
What about eating and drinking, trading antiques with men and women, wiping out a family that committed countless evil deeds, wasting one's abilities for a little money, food, and tea—why even write about such trivial matters?
However, this also confirmed Xiao Tian's suspicions: if what Long Zaitian wrote was true, then that guy was truly incredibly bored.
Eight hours later!
After more than thirty pages, Xiao Tian finally reached the crucial content.
Long Zaitian received an antique from a small merchant—an ancient general's helmet—which allowed him to enter the underground tomb in Luo Cheng.
Inside the tomb, Long Zaitian was threatened and forced to find various kinds of blood and meat for the tomb's owner.
Xiao Tian was excited; things were finally starting to get interesting.
