Chapter 401: Chapter 187: Seizing the Divine Spear_3

"No! Yoshio!"

He floated up again, his body already mutilated, but it was enveloped in a dim blue film of light.

As an old Elephant Level, his combat awareness was astounding, at the critical moment, he had reacted, reformed his Combat Body, and lessened the impact of the strike.

Gao Xin was also at the end of his rope. Even though he held the Hell’s Wart Gun, equivalent to adding a double supercharge, he couldn’t shatter the blue Combat Body with its power.

It was only here that Gao Xin realized how strong Yunzhong Tianyi’s blue Combat Body truly was.

Think about it, Sivina had managed to break Yunzhong Tianyi’s Combat Body only by relying on her own.

If Gao Xin didn’t have the Demon Blade with its innate energy armor-piercing effect, he wouldn’t have been able to break through Yunzhong Tianyi’s defenses at all!

"Rousi, why aren’t you running yet!" Gao Xin shouted.

Rousi was still muttering, "Impossible, he told me himself that the Quantum Ghost was left for me, just hoping that I’d obtain it and never betray Yakuzha."

Listening from the side, Luo Yi couldn’t help saying, "Doesn’t that mean it was left for Yamaguchi Yoshio? If you stay in Yakuzha, someday, that power will be taken from you."

"If he really didn’t want to leave it to his son, he should’ve let you fly far away! Not stay in Yamaguchi Village!"

"Keeping you here, it’s just as a Module archive. This is very common among many factions. Don’t you know that?"

"You can’t really expect to live out your days in Yamaguchi Village with Yamaguchi Shinko’s exclusive power, can you? That’s too naive..."

Luo Yi, well-informed and experienced, understood such matters in an instant.

His words struck right at the heart of the issue.

Suddenly Rousi was at a loss for words.

An innocent man bears no sin, but possession of a jewel does. How could people like Yamaguchi Yoshio and Yunzhong Tianyi let the power exclusive to the first Chairman fall into her hands?

Even though the Chairman had given it to her, they would definitely find a way to take it away.

Could the Chairman have not foreseen this? And yet, he only asked Rousi to never leave Yakuzha.

What kind of person was Rousi? Surely, she would adhere to this oath and would rather die than leave.

Putting the two together, it was destined that one day, she would die by the hands of Yamaguchi Yoshio.

"Never leave Yakuzha," the implication being to wait until Yamaguchi Yoshio grew up and could absorb that power.

Rousi was no fool. As she looked back suddenly, ever since the first Chairman’s death, she had never been sent on any missions, her rank perpetually stuck at Tiger Level.

After Yoshio took over, he hadn’t arranged any duties for her or given her any power, and she spent her days in Yamaguchi Village eating and drinking.

She had thought herself to be underutilized, merely because Yoshio disliked the foreign Black Hand, but now it seemed he was also worried that if she died, the Quantum Ghost Module would be destroyed.

As an archive, all she needed was to be well-kept.

Gao Xin had just realized this and couldn’t help but sigh, "It seems the first Chairman, no matter how wise and accommodating, no matter how caring and protective of you, was in the end still a political animal."

"Hehehehe... Hahahahaha!"

Rousi began to laugh madly, her scalp torn open, her head bubbling inside.

Yet she didn’t care and continued to laugh heartbreakingly.

"No one has truly loved me, never... I was born a doll..."

Feeling a little pity, Gao Xin couldn’t help but say, "You still have Luo Yan."

"Luo Yan... Luo Yan hates me, I know..." Rousi mumbled, her eyes brightening slightly at the mention of Luo Yan’s name but then dimming, her will to live already extinguished.

Unexpectedly, Gao Xin said, "Who said that? He confessed to me behind your back that he likes you a lot."

"Hm?" Rousi lifted her head.

Gao Xin, however, was no longer looking at her, as he slammed the Hell’s Wart Gun into Yunzhong Tianyi.

"Let’s go! There’s nothing worth lingering for in this damned place. Go find Luo Yan and leave with him."
