Chapter 1807: Take Care of My Loot

Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation

In a star zone that was not a heavenly dao-level projection in the Eastern Eight Zone, a man in a silver mask sat on a couch in a luxurious hotel.

In the living room across him were video projections of a few people in masks sitting upright.

“Is there news from Royal?” Silver-face asked in a deep voice.

“No, I don’t know what that Zhao Xuan is doing. He has been staying inside Xuan Palace these days. Not only is he rejecting any visitors, he has blocked all calls. Nobody can contact him at all.” The man in an inexperienced youth’s mask was clearly a little impatient judging from his tone.

“Can we confirm which pieces of information on the internet are true?” Silver-face glanced at the people present and asked.

“We can’t. We’re guessing that there is a lot of information that Zhao Xuan got people to spread on the internet as a distraction, and the authenticity of the information online is questionable,” the man in the inexperienced youth’s mask answered.

“I think that there is a high chance of that one piece of news about a half-step dominator-level powerhouse being true.” At that moment, a man wearing a mask with a child’s face suddenly spoke, “Perhaps only a half-step dominator-level powerhouse would be able to capture the two of them alive.”

Child-face spoke and suddenly turned his head to look at the man in a golden robe and white mask next to him.

The remaining people also looked at him.

“I only know that Royal definitely doesn’t have any half-step dominator-level ancestors guarding them.” The white-mask continued, “As for whether Zhao Xuan is hiding his ability, I’m not too sure about it either.”

“You’ve been working with him for so many years. Didn’t you sense anything wrong?” Child-face continued asking.

“The three of us took care of different things. We’d basically only contact each other through video calls when something happened. We would only meet in-person if we encountered something that required us to gather and work together. It’s been close to 10,000 years since we’ve seen each other,” white-face explained, “Therefore, it’s possible that he had secretly elevated to rank-9 and past that to dominator-level.”

“Now the problem is, regardless of whether it was Zhao Xuan or someone else, the person who attacked Zang Kong and Wu Ning is most probably a half-step dominator-level powerhouse. Also, this person might still be in Dongxuan City.”

“Zhao Xuan isn’t showing himself on purpose, and the fact that he’s not clarifying any rumors proves that he wants the news to continue developing. Even if our spies have been rooted out entirely, it’s impossible that we wouldn’t be able to find any news on the internet. He knows that and is waiting for us to rescue them. This is an overt plot!”

“It also proves that he has someone or something powerful backing him up!” The man in an inexperienced youth’s mask said with certainty.

The man in the silver mask fell silent momentarily. “Since that’s the case, I’ll go with you guys. If there’s really a half-step dominator-level powerhouse guarding Dongxuan City, I’ll buy you guys some time. However, it’s impossible for me to fight that person. I can only stall him for you guys for ten minutes at most. If the commotion is too great, we might attract the guardian.”

“Ten minutes is enough. All of the heavenly dao-level powerhouses of the organizations in the Eastern Eight Zone are under our watch. None of them have headed to Dongxuan City. Apart from Zhao Xuan, there are no other heavenly dao-level powerhouses in Royal.”

“If Zhao Xuan is at half-step dominator-level, as long as Lord Blackguard can stall him, we can enter right away and locate Zang Kong and Wu Ning. If Zhao Xuan isn’t at half-step dominator-level, as long as Lord Blackguard can stall that half-step Dominator, we only need one to two people at most to keep Zhao Xuan busy. The rest won’t need much time to locate the two of them. As long as Zhao Xuan is hiding them in Dongxuan City, we’ll find their exact coordinates simply by scanning with Divine Telekinesis after entering Dongxuan City.”

White-face sounded sure.

“What if Zhao Xuan hides the two of them in his Kingdom?” Child-face asked in a teasing tone.

“Then we’ll kill him!” White-face gave that answer without hesitation at all.

“You’re such a cruel man.” Child-face’s teasing tone was even heavier now.

“Alright, stop the nonsense. To be safe, apart from me, at least three people among us should participate in the mission this time.” Silver-face glanced at the people present.

“Count me in.” Child-face was the first to respond. “I haven’t been to Royal’s headquarters yet.”

Swollen-face glanced at the remaining people before speaking, “Count me in too.”

Child-face turned to look at white-face as soon as he heard that, “Didn’t you say you would kill Zhao Xuan just now? What? You can’t bear to do so now?”

White face merely glanced at child-face before nodding. “I’ll go too.”

“Three people should be enough. I’ll stay here and continue monitoring the organizations’ movements. I’ll inform you guys if there’s anything,” the man in an inexperienced youth’s mask said.

“Alright then.” Silver-face nodded lightly. “The three of you will gather at my hotel and we’ll head to Dongxuan City together. We’ll rescue the two of them today.”

After the discussion ended, silver-face turned off the communication device and waited for the three of them to arrive patiently.

…

Deep in Xuan Palace in Dongxuan City, devastating shrieks echoed throughout the entire palace.

Zhao Xuan’s punishments were getting more and more cruel, tormenting Zang Kong and Wu Ning to the extent that they wanted nothing more than to die.

However, they did not reveal anything useful.

Zhao Xuan frowned deeply. He was getting pissed these past few days. The reason being was that he realized that this was not because his interrogation techniques were not cruel enough, but rather because Zang Kong and Wu Ning believed in that Aza from the Black Abyss too much.

In reality, the two’s combat strength had dropped to minor dao-level. They could not handle his heavenly dao-level techniques. They had collapsed from his torture from the beginning, and they had revealed everything personal about themselves. However, Zhao Xuan could not get them to reveal anything about the Black Abyss at all.

Now he regretted a little bit that he had tortured them until they had collapsed.

Zhao Xuan flung his sleeves in disgust when he looked at the two of them who would shiver and even pee their pants from a mere glare of his. He slowly walked over to his throne. “Maybe I should get a psychic to fix their heads before interrogating them again?”

Just as Zhao Xuan was thinking what to do next, he suddenly raised his brows and lifted his head to look into the sky.

“So they’ve finally come after holding back for so many days?”

Almost at the same time, a figure quickly consolidated inside Xuan Palace.

However, that figure exuded no aura at all.

If he did not appear within Zhao Xuan’s field of vision directly, he might not have sensed his arrival.

Feeling shocked, he cupped his hands immediately. “Senior.”

The person who came was Lin Huang’s mirror clone. He was dressed just like how Lin Huang was earlier. He was wearing a white robe and a golden mask on his face.

Apart from not being able to use the Goldfingers in Lin Huang’s body, the mirror clone was almost identical to him. He even replicated his God Weapons.

After all, God Weapons were a part of Lin Huang’s body.

Moreover, he had exactly the same Kingdom and number of Dao seals that Lin Huang had mastered.

Naturally, Zhao Xuan could not tell the difference.

The mirror clone nodded slightly at him, and then said casually, “There are four people here. One half-step Dominator, and three people who have a similar level of ability as you.”

Zhao Xuan’s expression changed slightly when he heard that. He had been confident because he knew that Lin Huang would come. Never had he thought that the Black Abyss would send a half-step dominator-level powerhouse as well.

“Then… should we hide for now?” Zhao Xuan hesitated for a second before asking.

“No need.” Lin Huang’s clone glanced at Zhao Xuan. Naturally, he knew what he was thinking at the moment.. He said in a calm tone, “Just take care of my two spoils.”
