Chapter 321: Chapter 286: Taoist Descends the Mountain (Part 2)

The streets were in a mess.

The ambulance shuttles were busily transporting the injured.

A police officer stood in front of the cordon, facing the reporters and spoke confidently,

"There is reason to believe that the target of this terrorist attack was a religious figure."

"We have already issued a tracking order."

"Everyone who sees him, please report it immediately."

After the officer finished speaking, the on-site host took back the microphone and began analyzing the terrorist attack for the camera.

The live footage spread rapidly online.

And Wu Xiaode was there at the scene.

Wrapped in silent Demon Mist, he stood next to the interviewed officer, silently listened to the broadcast, and then fell into deep thought.

Which part went wrong?

Was Shen Feixue’s call tapped, or was there a mole among the police?

The information was too scant to make a judgment.

Perhaps like this...

Wu Xiaode took a step forward and turned into an alley, walking to a secluded spot before looking up at the surveillance camera beside the white street light in the corner above.

The mist dispersed.

His face was exposed under the camera.

"Book of the Dead, start timing," he said.

The Book of the Dead quietly opened, revealing a line of ice crystal small print:

"This book is not a timing tool."

"But timing is related to the Law of Time, and I believe you have such superior ability," Wu Xiaode said.

The Book of the Dead paused for a moment, and again displayed a line of ice crystal small print:

"Measuring time is merely a basic capability, I am fully up to the task."

"Start timing:"

"00:01"

"00:02"

"..."

Wu Xiaode stood there, waiting in silence.

There weren’t many people in this alley.

——Being new and unfamiliar with this world, he could only use this crude method to evaluate the situation.

If the police arrived first, and they came to protect him, it would prove that public authority still had deterrence, and he would go with them and inquire about Shen Feixue’s whereabouts.

If someone else came first, it would prove that the entire surveillance system was unreliable—

He would need to avoid the light and walk in the dark, thinking of other ways to find Shen Feixue.

Time slowly passed.

The sounds around gradually disappeared, and the alley grew even quieter.

Thud... Thud...

Amid the heavy footsteps, a three-meter-tall Mobile Battle Armor appeared at the end of the alley.

Looking back.

At the other end of the alley, another Mobile Battle Armor was packed with various weapons, armed to the teeth.

Wu Xiaode glanced at the Book of the Dead.

"01:13."

In one minute and thirteen seconds, they had sealed off the streets and sent two Mobile Battle Armors to kill him.

The answer was quite clear.

The Mobile Battle Armors took big strides, began running, and increased speed toward him.

Wu Xiaode looked up at the surveillance camera on the wall.

"Don’t you know I am a Taoist?"

As soon as he finished speaking,

he suddenly disappeared from the spot.

——He disappeared completely, no longer visible and his trace undetectable.

The two Mobile Battle Armors suddenly slowed down, unsure of what to do and stopped in place.

A few moments passed.

Mobile Battle Armor

Wu Xiaode crouched on the surrounding wall, closely observing the two Mobile Battle Armors, finding them rather interesting.

Because it was clear that these two Battle Armors were manned.

Rather than being driven, they resembled portable mechanical exoskeletons equipped with various weapons.

——It seems that exoskeletons and their accompanying combat gear have become quite common.

Having been able to hold down a speeding truck with one hand before, the enemy likely had a combat plan specifically targeting him.

How did they plan to kill him?

Curious, Wu Xiaode simply snapped his fingers.

A dense array of bronze arms emerged from the Void behind him, quickly assembling into a bronze Enchanting Demon statue and landing on the surround wall.

Wu Xiaode patted the statue.

The statue suddenly came to life.

"Heehee, master, do you want to ask them about their plan?" the bronze Enchanting Demon giggled.

——Although made of bronze, any pose she took was incredibly seductive.

"This Mecha is operated by two people, ask them about their situation," Wu Xiaode said.

"Can I appear before them?" the Enchanting Demon asked.

"It’s better not to."

"Then I’ll just use my voice—dealing with humans, this level should be sufficient."

Standing on the wall, the Enchanting Demon let out a long "hmm" from her nostrils, causing Wu Xiaode’s ears to heat up and his heart to race.

"Don’t use it on me," Wu Xiaode said.

"I didn’t. This is a Charming sound, targeting not master you, but just those two below," the Enchanting Demon explained.

Wu Xiaode took a breath and shook his head.

"Gentlemen, tell me," the Enchanting Demon continued, "what was your plan just now?"

The cockpits of the Mobile Battle Armors popped open, revealing two burly men.

"I am equipped with mini biological wave tracking bombs. A direct hit would cause the body to disintegrate—this is a biological bomb, specifically aimed at human tissue," one man said.

"I’m equipped with a high-power combat engine. One punch can blast a truck away, killing a slightly skilled human is no problem," said the other.

Wu Xiaode nodded slightly.

The technology of this epoch was truly incredible.

No wonder that in a few years, they would master the technology of energy regeneration and even use technology to achieve immortality for humans.

Among the numerous divine spirits, the vast majority came down to save the world, but some immortals were really attracted by such a life.

After all, it seemed there wasn’t much entertainment in Heaven.

Wu Xiaode thought to himself.

"Master..."

The Enchanting Demon looked at Wu Xiaode and spoke softly.

"Have them call the police and turn themselves in," Wu Xiaode said, snapping back to reality.

"Dear brothers, please call the police and turn yourselves in, start anew, thank you," the Enchanting Demon said coquettishly.

"Okay," both men responded in unison.

They took out their phones and began to make calls.

Shortly after.

The police arrived.

When the police saw the two Combat Mechas, they were instantly on high alert and immediately dispatched several Combat Mechas to the scene.

The two were tied up tightly and loaded onto a police van.

The police did not leave immediately; they continued to investigate in the alley.

—After all, this incident was truly unbelievable.

Wu Xiaode looked at his watch.

He had no time to play with them anymore.

He jumped down from the wall and walked back under the surveillance camera.

The mist dispersed.

Taking advantage of the police being distracted elsewhere, he silently said to the camera, "Want to get into prison? Come find me again."

In an instant.

His entire figure disappeared again.

—Even public surveillance cameras could be accessed, so he believed reading his lip movements would be a trivial matter.

Not playing with you now, off to find Shen Feixue!

Wu Xiaode vaulted over the wall, flew through a cluster of buildings, and landed on a large schoolyard.

This was a middle school.

It was still early, and there were hardly any people on the schoolyard.

Wu Xiaode simply stopped there and snapped his fingers.

The bronze body of the Enchanting Demon burst apart, reverting into numerous bronze hands.

The thousands of bronze hands reassembled to form a creature with a fox head, a woman’s head, and a Devil’s head.

Wu Xiaode reached out and gently patted it.

The creature instantly came to life.

Its Devil head asked solemnly, "Is it a serious matter?"

The woman’s head, in a drunken teasing tone, asked, "Or are you seeking some fun?"

The fox head asked, "Or perhaps you want to play a game of Cosprey?"

The Devil was proficient in summoning, the woman excelled in intelligence gathering, and the fox knew how to disguise—

These were the three abilities of the King of Evil Ghosts, Rester.

"I am looking for a woman, Shen Feixue, I saw her in this world twenty-one days ago," Wu Xiaode spoke.

Both the Devil and fox heads closed their eyes.

The woman’s head glanced around, then suddenly smiled and spoke,

"People seen twenty-one days ago? That might be tricky, but your follower is already here, it should have detected the woman’s scent in the Taoist Temple; it would be easiest to let it handle this."

Follower?

Wu Xiaode paused, then, sensing something, turned back.

A mechanical dog was sprinting towards him from a distance, its tail wagging as if it was about to bark "woof woof."

"Bone Dog?"

Wu Xiaode expressed his surprise.

He waved his hand, and a mist drifted over, concealing the Bone Dog.

The Bone Dog charged up to him and lightly leaped into his arms.

"I am a juvenile bone dragon, please don’t treat me like a dog," it said seriously.

Wu Xiaode looked at its continuously wagging tail.

Forget it, better to show respect, after all, if it turned into a bone dragon later, he might not be able to beat it.

"Okay, but why are you here?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"This world is full of the scent of disaster, and each disaster helps me grow stronger, so I need your help," the Bone Dog said.

"No problem, by the way, I am looking for a woman named Shen Feixue, did you smell her scent when you were in the Taoist Temple?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Indeed, there were some women’s hair in the Taoist Temple, I smelled their scent—but I must clarify one thing, I am not a dog—we bone dragons possess a sense of smell a million times stronger than dogs," the Bone Dog said.

"Can you lead me to her?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"That’s very simple."

The Bone Dog stuck out its nose, sniffed the Void for a good while, then finally spoke,

"Ah... I can’t find her."

"Huh?" Wu Xiaode was baffled.

Bone dragons were not known for making empty boasts.

"Yes, it seems that this matter has become complicated," the King of Evil Ghosts’ woman head also intervened.

"Very complicated," the Bone Dog said.

"Both of you, what do you sense?" Wu Xiaode asked.

"Divine Power—there is a strong Divine Skill shielding Shen Feixue’s tracks, preventing anyone from discovering her," the King of Evil Ghosts’ woman head said.

Divine Skill!

Only immortals could unleash Divine magic.

But why would they do this?

Wu Xiaode glanced at his watch.

The watch’s hand was still pointing at "Danger," and the word was gradually changing from white to red.

When "Danger" turned black, Shen Feixue and her child inside would die.

The divine spirits of this world had actually shielded Shen Feixue’s tracks, allowing her to fall into danger, moving step by step towards death!
