"You killed him just to reduce the number of competitors?"
"Of course not... I killed him because he had it coming."
"Our Young Master has lived in the Suspended Jade Realm since he was a child. He's never traveled far or made enemies with anyone. How could he have had it coming?"
"Just because his brother is Tianhuai!" The assassin's voice grew colder. "Anyone who acts as a lackey for that dog-thief... has it coming, and his brother is no exception."
At these words, the black-clad figures all paused, but then they angrily retorted:
"Harm doesn't extend to family! You have a grudge against Tianhuai, so why kill our Young Master?"
"Harm doesn't extend to family?" The assassin sneered. "You should tell that to the thousand-cut dog-thief... See if he believes it?"
Rustle—
A soft sound came from the side.
The assassin froze, as if sensing something, and frowned, looking towards the shattered remnants of the round table...
A young figure, his neck pierced by a long sword, staggered to his feet from the pool of blood, his enraged gaze fixed on the surrounded assassin.
He spoke hoarsely, word by word:
"My brother... is not a traitor!!"
The assassin's brows suddenly furrowed!
"Watch out!" Spade 9 seemed to sense something, and with a sudden pull on Chen Ling and Jian Changsheng's arms, he crashed lightning-fast into the nearby window!
Boom—!!!
At the same moment, a terrifying shockwave erupted from within the Young Master's body, instantly sweeping across the street!
Oh dear.
After much internal debate, Sun Buming finally took a bite of the last meat bun.
The next moment, a huge crash echoed from the nearby restaurant, like a sudden clap of thunder, startling Sun Buming so much that his hand trembled, dropping half of his meat bun directly onto the ground where it rolled away towards the middle of the road.
Shards of glass mixed with wood splinters rained down from the sky, along with a large amount of coins and banknotes from the cash register, and countless king crab legs, eliciting gasps from pedestrians on the street.
Sun Buming looked up, his small round sunglasses reflecting the raining food and money, his mouth involuntarily agape in shock…
"It's... raining king crab?"
After a brief moment of stunned surprise, pedestrians on the street quickly snapped back to reality and rushed forward, one after another, to pick up the scattered coins and banknotes on the ground, creating instant chaos.
Found money, in any era, is a hard-to-refuse sight... except for the king crab, of course. Although most of these passersby had never eaten king crab, they had little interest in the food that had fallen to the ground and gotten dusty. Their eyes were only on the coins and banknotes.
Sun Buming adjusted his small round sunglasses, and after a moment of silence in front of the bun shop, he sighed deeply and also walked towards the middle of the road.
The figure in the black Tang suit walked step by step through the noisy crowd, past the money and delicacies scattered everywhere, and finally stopped slowly in an unnoticed corner…
He bent down and picked up the half-eaten bun, covered in wood splinters and dust.
"Luckily, nothing else stuck to it," Sun Buming muttered to himself, carefully brushing off the wood splinters, then popped it into his mouth and chewed slowly.
He happily squinted his eyes like a cat, savoring the last bits of his delicious lunch. After a long while, he patted his belly contentedly.
"—Splendid!"
He strode towards the bun shop, where the fiery red lion dance head awaited him.
Not far from him, three figures, like swallows, leaped directly from the second floor and landed steadily on the ground.
Chen Ling and the others looked up, only to see that the second floor of the restaurant was now permeated by a strange aura, as if it had swallowed all light… It was a domain.
"Huh, he's still alive after that?" Jian Changsheng recovered and exclaimed in surprise. "Is he really from the Puppet Divine Path, and not an Asura from the Weapon Divine Path? That vitality is simply insane!"
Spade 9 frowned, recalling the previous scene, and seemed to realize something, muttering to himself, "This guy... No wonder the Suspended Jade Realm sent him."
"By the way, did we really have to make such a messy escape? Those two guys earlier seemed to be only Fifth-rank. With you here, Senior, we could have at least packed up the king crab and taken it with us, right?" Jian Changsheng looked at the only two crab legs left in his hand, apparently heartbroken.
"Theoretically, yes... but recently, it's not convenient for me to act."
Jian Changsheng looked at Spade 9 in confusion. "Why?"
"If nothing goes wrong, those guys from the Book Divine Path have also arrived in the Heavenly Pivot Realm. If they detect my path fluctuations, it will attract a few people I'd rather not meet." Spade 9 sighed. "So, it's better for us to be cautious... If we get caught in that domain, things will become very troublesome."
"Understood." Jian Changsheng nodded slightly. "Then let's head back for now."
Just as he was about to turn and leave, his peripheral vision suddenly caught sight of a familiar figure across the street, holding a lion dance head and swaying as he walked into the distance, his steps suddenly freezing!
Jian Changsheng rubbed his eyes, his mouth gradually widening…
"What's wrong?" Spade 9 asked, puzzled by his reaction.
"H-h-h-h-Heart!!!" Jian Changsheng's eyes widened abruptly, and he pointed at the distant figure in the Tang suit who was about to leave. "It's him!! It's him!"
"Who is he?" Chen Ling was utterly confused.
"That bastard!! He was the one who kicked us out of the carriage when we arrived!" Jian Changsheng gritted his teeth.
Chen Ling's gaze followed the direction of his finger, and the moment he saw the figure, he recalled the lion dance boy performing on the street earlier... His brow subtly lifted.
"Fate, oh fate!! You little brat... I've caught you now, haven't I?!"
"I'll kick your head in!"
Jian Changsheng, like a powder keg that had been suppressed for a long time, finally found the right target for his fury. Without a word, he shot out like an arrow, sprinting menacingly towards the lion dance figure!
Seeing this, Spade 9 was about to call him back, but in the blink of an eye, Jian Changsheng had already run far away.
"Seriously... I just said we needed to be low-key! Low-key!! And he just ignored me?!" Spade 9's face darkened, like an exasperated patriarch.
He turned his head and said earnestly to Chen Ling:
"Heart, I know you're much more stable than Little Jian. Next time he does something like this... you have to stop him."
Chen Ling pondered for a moment. "Senior... I might have to leave for a bit too."
"? What are you going to do now?"
Chen Ling extended his hand, pointed to the second floor of the restaurant, which was covered by the domain and in the midst of a chaotic battle, and stated firmly:
"We left through the window so suddenly just now, the letters my senior brothers and sisters sent me are still on the table... I need to go get them back."
As his words fell, without waiting for Spade 9's objection, Chen Ling stepped into the void and directly plunged into the battlefield of the two wildly operating domains!
Audience Anticipation: 3
Spade 9's eyes widened. He looked at Jian Changsheng, who had vanished without a trace, then at Chen Ling, who had plunged back into the two Fifth-rank battlefield without hesitation, and was so furious he nearly had a heart attack... He put one hand on his forehead, muttering to himself:
"What a mess..."
