Chapter 1625 Encountering the Sakura Organization Again
"Kid, you're quite clever. I've also noticed it. It seems someone has targeted my friend."
The scruffy Taoist stroked his chin. "I've made another discovery that you probably haven't noticed."
"What discovery?"
"These people seem to be ninjas from Wa Country."
"What makes you say that?"
"Their movements and actions."
Chen Xuan really hadn't noticed this. He asked, "What should we do next?"
"The South China Sea is our Xia Country's territory. How can we let Wa Country trample it at will? Of course, we'll deal with them! Moreover, I don't think my friend has met with misfortune. He was likely captured by the people from Wa Country. If we make a strategic retreat and then launch a surprise attack, we might be able to rescue my friend."
"I agree!"
Chen Xuan and the scruffy Taoist immediately returned to the villa, just in time to encounter the Wa Country ninjas preparing to escape.
"Where are you guys going?"
Chen Xuan looked at the people in front of him, sneering.
"Why have you returned? Didn't we say it would take a few more days to translate?" The fake Professor Wu thought they hadn't discovered anything and asked with a frown.
Chen Xuan suddenly drew a dagger and placed it on the fake Professor Wu's neck.
"What do you want?"
The fake Professor Wu shouted at the scruffy Taoist, "Aren't you going to control your friend?"
"Stop with the nonsense. Tell me quickly, who are you? Where did you take Professor Wu?"
Chen Xuan said coldly.
The fake Professor Wu saw the situation and immediately understood that he had been exposed. He quickly drew the dagger from his waist and lunged at Chen Xuan, but was kicked to the ground by Chen Xuan.
The others also tried to attack Chen Xuan and the scruffy Taoist, but they were dealt with in a flash.
"Who exactly are you? If you don't tell me, I'll kill all of you right now!"
The fake Professor Wu said, "We are from the Sakura Organization of Wa Country. My name is Shi Ye Hao Er. We originally wanted Professor Wu to decipher a curse for us, but Professor Wu refused because we are from Wa Country. So, we had no choice but to abduct Professor Wu."
"Abducting Professor Wu is one thing, but why did you impersonate Professor Wu?"
Chen Xuan asked, confused.
"From the exchange information between Professor Wu and Xuan Miao Daoist, we learned that you also possess a piece of the inscription. We believe the inscription you have is similar to ours, so we impersonated Professor Wu to trick you into handing over your inscription."
"So that's how it is!"
Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes. "Where is the real Professor Wu?"
"He's in the secret room upstairs,"
Shi Ye Hao Er said, glancing upstairs.
The scruffy Taoist said, "You stay here and watch them. I'll go upstairs."
Soon, the scruffy Taoist returned and told Chen Xuan that Professor Wu had been found in the secret room.
"Then what about them?"
Chen Xuan looked at these Sakura Organization members, feeling a bit troubled.
"Kill them!"
The scruffy Taoist made a throat-slitting gesture.
Chen Xuan did not hesitate and eliminated the Sakura Organization members. Then, he and the scruffy Taoist went to the living room, where they met the real Professor Wu.
"Mr. Chen, Xuan Miao Daoist, thank you so much. If it weren't for you, I would still be imprisoned by them."
Professor Wu was thin, but he was very happy to have escaped.
"You're welcome, Professor Wu. We were just passing by, and besides, we came to ask you to translate the inscription," Chen Xuan said with a smile.
"Yes, Old Wu, don't be so polite," the scruffy Taoist chuckled.
"Then I won't be polite," Professor Wu said.
"Professor Wu, what exactly happened?"
The scruffy Taoist asked curiously, "Why did the Sakura Organization members ask you to translate the inscription, and what did they mean by our inscriptions being similar to theirs?"
Professor Wu said, "Let me say this first. I have also seen your inscriptions. There is indeed a connection between the inscriptions you have. They all originate from the inscriptions within the Bronze Gate. As for their specific meaning, I cannot ascertain it for now."
"What? There's actually a connection?"
Chen Xuan was very surprised. "Did the Sakura Organization also have someone who entered the Bronze Gate?"
The scruffy Taoist said, "I remember that during the Xuanmen grand operation of the organization, there was a feng shui master from Wa Country. Could this be his doing? Almost all the feng shui masters in Xia Country who entered the Bronze Gate have died, but I haven't heard that this Wa Country feng shui master died."
"That's possible."
Chen Xuan hadn't expected that there was such a feng shui master from Wa Country involved in that grand operation.
"Professor Wu, what does this inscription mean?"
Chen Xuan asked urgently.
He was more concerned about the content of the inscription.
Professor Wu said, "I haven't figured it out yet, but I can confirm that this inscription is likely related to lifting curses. If we can find all the inscriptions, we can definitely resolve the curse and even achieve immortality."
"That's truly wonderful!"
Chen Xuan was overjoyed.
His risky trip to the underworld earlier seemed to have been worthwhile.
"Also, I heard some news from the Sakura Organization members."
"What news?"
"The forbidden land that recently opened in the South China Sea might contain other inscriptions. The Sakura Organization has also sent people there. It seems that some of the people who went before have already been trapped within the forbidden land."
"The South China Sea forbidden land also has inscriptions? Could the Qintianjian have come here for the inscriptions too?"
Chen Xuan narrowed his eyes.
"It's very possible. This inscription might involve the secret of longevity," the scruffy Taoist said in a deep voice.
Professor Wu also said, "I've heard that many people covet this inscription."
Chen Xuan couldn't help but ask, "Didn't they say they had already found the secret of longevity? Why are they still looking for this?"
"Unknown," the scruffy Taoist shook his head.
Since the Sakura Organization members died here, Professor Wu could no longer stay in this villa. The scruffy Taoist quickly found a new residence for Professor Wu, and then Chen Xuan and the scruffy Taoist bid farewell to Professor Wu. wΑp.kanshu伍.net
Boom!!
The next morning, a sudden roaring sound echoed.
Following that, the heavens and earth began to shake violently, as if an earthquake had occurred.
"What's happening?"
Chen Xuan also jumped out of bed abruptly. Wearing his pajamas, he rushed outside.
Upon reaching the outside, he saw that the balcony was already crowded with people, all looking into the distance with horrified expressions.
Chen Xuan also looked over and saw that the sky in the distance was extremely overcast and oppressive.
On the surface of the sea, several massive water pillars were wildly swirling, spanning the heavens and earth, as if they were going to swallow everything.
Lightning flashed and thunder rumbled in the sky.
And on the distant sea, a huge island seemed to have appeared in sight. It was certain that there was no such island yesterday; it seemed to have appeared out of nowhere overnight.
Everyone's gaze was fixed on the island.
The scruffy Taoist walked over and said in a low voice, "Chen Xuan, our luck is really good. The South China Sea forbidden land has reappeared. We need to prepare to set off!"
