The night descended upon Shengjing City, and with the abduction of the two young masters of the He family, the family launched a full-scale search, both openly and covertly.
Secretary Xiao Li changed into ordinary clothes and drove alone towards the outskirts of Shengjing City.
Three figures hid within the clouds in mid-air, these being the He family's Fourth Grand Elder, the He family patriarch He Kuang, and the Wang family patriarch Wang Wu. "Fourth Uncle, the bait has taken the hook."
"Hmph, once they've taken the bait, they won't escape. I never imagined these Fusang folk could hide so deeply. The main base of the Myriad Races Church is actually there, and they have so many Lord-level experts." The Fourth Grand Elder spoke with a cold tone.
A figure flickering with lightning descended from afar. The newcomer was Lin Zhan's father-in-law, the Thunder Lord Zhang Zhen. "Fourth Uncle, there's more that I didn't expect. That fool from Fusang, who calls himself the Sixth Heavenly Demon King, has advanced to become a Quasi-King. This time, the Myriad Races Church that came to Hua Xia has two Lord-level experts."
"Brother Zhen, you've arrived quite quickly." He Kuang and Wang Wu also greeted him with smiles.
The Fourth Grand Elder and the elders from the Wang family held positions in the Human Royal Court and were also on friendly terms with Lin Hai and Lin Shan in private, hence their informal address.
Furthermore, our great Hua Xia is a land of etiquette, and respecting the old and cherishing the young is a virtue of our nation. During times of foreign invasion, all humans in Hua Xia are brothers bound by blood.
Zhang Zhen said with a mischievous grin, "Fifth Brother, it's not that I was slow to arrive, but my niece by marriage, An family, urged me to come quickly. She heard that a certain little punk was kidnapped for exploiting his position, and my brother-in-law and his wife have already come to our doorstep this morning."
Before Zhang Zhen could finish speaking, the others burst into laughter. Wang Wu said, "Fifth Brother He, my Er Zhuang is single. Brother Zhen must not be talking about Er Zhuang."
He Kuang's old face flushed red from their laughter. Regardless of the reason, on the surface, it was the He family's young master who was caught exploiting his position in a hotel and subsequently kidnapped. It was an embarrassing situation, and now it had gotten worse with in-laws showing up at their door.
"What kind of damn idea was that little punk thinking of? Where will I put my face now?"
All four were Lord-level experts, and the Fourth Grand Elder was a veteran Lord, even at the Half-step Quasi-King level. They didn't take the two Lord-level experts from Fusang seriously at all. They followed Secretary Xiao Li, flying through the air, chatting and laughing, towards their destination.
Secretary Xiao Li parked the car in front of a private manor in the suburbs. He carefully looked around, and finding no one following, he pressed the doorbell with confidence.
Soon, a man opened the door and welcomed Xiao Li in. "Is Mr. Yamamoto here? I need to see Mr. Yamamoto immediately."
The man led Xiao Li to the manor's basement, which had been converted into interconnected rooms suitable for long-term stays.
In the largest room, Xiao Li met a lecherous old man wearing a traditional burial garment of Fusang. He was also the leading Lord-level expert of the Myriad Races Church this time, the Fourth Elder of the true Myriad Races Church headquarters, "Yamamoto Dairo."
Yamamoto Dairo's sinister gaze fixed on Xiao Li. "Why are you here instead of assisting Meizi?"
"Mr. Yamamoto, Miss Meizi and Miss Nilvia have been kidnapped," Xiao Li said, kneeling fearfully before Yamamoto Dairo.
"Hmph, was it the He family who did this?" Yamamoto Dairo asked with a heavy tone. After all, if Yamamoto Meizi was kidnapped by the He family, it would mean their exposure. With the fierce tigers of the He family, they would be chopped into tiny pieces.
"It shouldn't be the He family, because the He family's young master and second young master have also been kidnapped. They and the two young ladies are currently... hmph, discussing life in their room. He family's Eighth Master has already arrived and has investigated that it was done by the remaining members of the Hua Xia Myriad Races Church," Xiao Li recounted all the information he had learned from He Lao Ba.
"Baka! The Myriad Races Church in Hua Xia are all a bunch of idiots. Not only were they wiped out, but they also disrupted our plans. They all deserve to die! Come, invite Mr. Takeda here." Mr. Takeda was the second Lord-level expert of the Myriad Races Church who had come this time.
In no time, a burly man was brought in. Yamamoto Dairo immediately spoke to him, "Mr. Takeda, the situation has changed." He then had Xiao Li explain the matter again to Mr. Takeda.
"Someone, send people out to investigate Meizi's whereabouts. We must find her," Takeda instructed his subordinates after listening.
"No need to look, we've already found them for you," He Kuang said, emerging with a blood-stained tiger-head saber.
"He Kuang, it seems this was all arranged by your He family. But you must not have expected that two Lord-level figures would be here, right? I wonder if your He family can still be so glorious after you die." Mr. Takeda looked at He Kuang and spoke sinisterly before laughing.
A flash of the saber and a head fell. Before Takeda could finish laughing, the Fourth Grand Elder, hidden in the shadows, chopped off his head. "Did no one teach this idiot that villains die from talking too much? And he's still concerned about my He family. Do you know how many experts my He family has?"
Wang Wu also walked in from outside. The two iron halberds were also stained with blood. He chuckled, looking at the headless Takeda, "Fourth Uncle, you're a Half-step Quasi-King, yet you sneak attack a mid-level Lord like this? That's not very dignified."
The Fourth Grand Elder flicked the blood from his tiger-head saber. "What's dignity worth? It's better to be sneaky. Otherwise, this old man would have already gone to join our eldest brother and the others." The eldest brother the Fourth Grand Elder mentioned was naturally the He family's deceased First Grand Elder and several brothers.
"That makes sense. What about the remaining one, Fourth Uncle? Should we kill him?" Wang Wu nodded and then looked at Yamamoto Dairo, asking.
Yamamoto Dairo, looking at the tragically dead Takeda and the others, was filled with panic. "Baka! Those intelligence department guys all deserve to die! Didn't they say there was only one Lord in Shengjing, He Kuang? Where did these people come from?"
"Baka! You detestable fellows, you all deserve to die..."
"Slap!" Yamamoto Dairo, before he could finish speaking, was sent flying and crashed against the wall.
"Seeing you talk annoys me. Fourth Uncle, this useless one can be handed over to the Human King Hall for interrogation," Zhang Zhen said, slowly emerging from the shadows, and sent the incessantly yapping Yamamoto Dairo flying with a spear.
"My goodness, Brother Zhen, you just knocked away a high-level Lord? That's too fierce!" He Kuang and Wang Wu looked at Zhang Zhen casually sending flying an expert of the same level as themselves with a bit of surprise.
"Basic move, don't be surprised," Zhang Zhen said imposingly, carrying his spear.
The Fourth Grand Elder let out a tiger's roar, and a blood-red tiger flew out, crashing into Yamamoto Dairo's body. Sudan Novel Network
"Pfft," Yamamoto Dairo spat out a mouthful of blood and fainted.
"I'll hand him over to the Human King Hall first. Fifth Brother, you'll have to figure out how to explain this to your in-laws," the Fourth Grand Elder said with a booming laugh as he flew away, carrying Yamamoto Dairo.
