Chapter 546

~15 min read 2,926 words

On the way home from school, Xiao Yu first went to the park along the route.

"I must wash off the tattoo on my ankle, otherwise when I get back, if Long Shu discovers it, even if it's not a real tattoo, he'll definitely lecture me."

Xiao Yu put her foot under the water tap to rinse it, rubbing the pattern on her ankle with her hand; after rubbing for a while, she suddenly exclaimed.

"Ah~"

"What's wrong?"

Broly looked over.

"It won't wash off."

Broly reached over and helped rub it, discovering it really wouldn't.

"Maybe I shouldn't have used plastic wrap."

Xiao Yu suspected it was because she had pressed the imprint too deep.

"Don't you have any other way?" Broly asked, then proposed: "How about you bear the pain, I'll help you slice off the piece of skin on your ankle that has the tattoo, and then heal you."

"Uh, that sounds really painful. I think I can go back and try fire oil. Broly, you just come with me to the antique shop and help cover for me."

The pain-fearing Xiao Yu directly refused Broly's skin-slicing suggestion, instead requesting the Saiyan boy to help cover for her later.

Broly agreed, but when they returned to Broly's Antique Shop, they discovered the inside of the shop seemed rather messy.

"Dad, Tru, what happened at the antique shop?"

Xiao Yu, having pulled her pant leg down to her ankle, asked Dad and Tru who were cleaning up the antique shop.

"It was the Black Hand Gang. They disguised themselves as wealthy merchants buying antiques, but secretly stole the Fu Shu Dazuan. When they were leaving, we discovered them, so they threw Dad's antiques around everywhere. We caught some, but some were still smashed."

Tru explained.

"Fortunately, only a few ordinary antiques were smashed, and this precious blue-and-white porcelain in my hand wasn't damaged."

Dad wiped the blue-and-white porcelain beside him, saying with some relief; this was his shop's treasure.

"Uh, what about the Fu Shu Dazuan?"

Xiao Yu looked at the study, didn't see the Fu Shu Dazuan, and couldn't help asking.

"Don't make Dad say it a second time. That book has already been stolen by the Black Hand Gang."

"Ah, then why do you two still look so calm?"

"Because Jackie Chan has already chased after them. We believe he can resolve this matter well."

Whether it was Dad or Tru, both had great confidence in Jackie Chan.

"Okay."

Of course, Xiao Yu did too. She carried her schoolbag back to the attic room.

"What a pity we returned late; otherwise we could have filmed a new action movie."

Xiao Yu put down her schoolbag and said with some regret.

"Maybe it's not too late."

From the attic, Xiao Yu poked her head out and shouted down: "Dad, how long has Long Shu been gone?"

"About an hour. What's up?"

"An hour and he hasn't returned. Long Shu might have had an accident. Broly and I are going to find him!"

Finishing those words, taking the Agent Polaroid, Xiao Yu jumped onto Broly's back, preparing to set off to find Long Shu.

Broly remembered Jackie Chan's Qi, but had to distinguish it; he distinguished for a good while before setting off.

"Afeng, Jackie Chan followed us."

The Black Hand Gang and the others, having stopped their car at the fishing port, got out and were immediately sneak-attacked by Jackie Chan lying on the car roof.

"Catch him!"

Jackie Chan retrieved the Fu Shu Dazuan, but holding this thick book, he couldn't escape this time.

"Take this, Jackie Chan, Crow Sits on Airplane!"

A Fu leaped high, arms spread in Great Peng Spread Wings form, delivering a powerful flying kick that struck the Fu Shu Dazuan Jackie Chan was holding.

Jackie Chan, holding the Fu Shu Dazuan, was kicked flying by this kick, his head knocking against an iron cargo container stored beside the fishing port with a *dong* sound, and he directly fainted.

"Holy Lord, look what we've brought you."

The Black Hand Gang and the others brought the Fu Shu Dazuan and the unconscious Jackie Chan together to see the Holy Lord.

"My Fu Shu Dazuan, and Jackie Chan!"

The Holy Lord was extremely satisfied with the results of Walong's subordinates' work this time.

"You did very well."

He praised the four Black Hand Gang members.

"Uh, is it only verbal praise?"

The Black Hand Gang and the others were still very happy; it was rare to be praised by the Holy Lord, but La Su somewhat ruined the atmosphere by asking.

"Of course not. But I haven't achieved my goal yet. After you help me achieve my goal, I will definitely reward you properly."

The Holy Lord painted a big cake, then pointed at the Fu Shu Dazuan and Jackie Chan lying in La Su's arms, being princess-carried by La Su: "Hand the Fu Shu Dazuan to me. Tie Jackie Chan up for me. I haven't thought of how to use this guy yet."

"I think I can perhaps cast a power-weakening curse on Jackie Chan. As long as Broly comes to save him, he'll definitely be cursed. But that spell-casting Dad is a problem; the other party might be able to dispel my curse..."

The Holy Lord flipped through the Fu Shu Dazuan, which recorded many evil curses He had long forgotten, but how to deal with Broly was still a problem.

"Also, Holy Lord, don't forget they still have the power of the Talismans. Your Horse Talisman once helped Jackie Chan dispel a petrification curse."

Walong reminded the Holy Lord; they had once set a trap letting Jackie Chan be hit with petrification poison, but the Horse Talisman removed the effect.

"Shut up, Walong. I haven't forgotten this matter. Let me look for another evil curse!"

The Saint Lord scolded Walong with one dissatisfied sentence, then continued flipping through the Fu Shu Dazuan, but by this time Jackie Chan had already woken up.

"How did I get here?"

"You were caught, Jackie Chan."

"It was us who defeated you."

La Su, Afeng, and the Wednesday trio were quite happy; they seldom beat Jackie Chan, MVP A Fu didn't speak — if it were a normal fight, without any tools, his own skill is more powerful than Jackie Chan's.

Only, in real fights Jackie Chan can always use terrain and tools to win, but this time, the pier side had no tools or terrain for Jackie Chan to utilize.

"Welcome to my turf, Jackie Chan, you look just like a caterpillar right now."

Hearing Jackie Chan wake up, the Saint Lord came over this way holding the Fu Shu Dazuan, and began mocking Jackie Chan.

"Saint Lord, don't get happy too early, Dad and them haven't seen me return for a long time, they'll definitely contact Chief Black, someone will come find this place to save me soon."

"Oh, save you, of course, that's exactly what I want, but before you're rescued, I'll impose various evil curses on your body, so the people coming to save you will have terrible luck, be cursed."

"Saint Lord, you're so despicable."

"I'm a demon, not despicable, would I still lecture you on truth, goodness, and beauty?"

The Saint Lord's words were very reasonable, leaving Jackie Chan speechless.

And right at this moment, with a *pa* sound, the second floor window was smashed.

"Who is it?"

The Saint Lord looked toward the direction of the sound from the second floor, and saw Xiao Yu walking out of the room holding the Agent Polaroid, and Broly following beside her.

"Oh, Long Shu, he's been caught by bad guys."

Xiao Yu opened her mouth wide; before coming in she had thought her own Long Shu was inside fighting three hundred rounds of great battle with the Black Hand Gang bad guys.

"Ah, Xiao Yu, how come it's you guys who came over?"

Jackie Chan also saw Xiao Yu upstairs; originally he still wanted to lecture his niece, but reacting that Broly is also a District 13 agent, it turned into an inquiry.

"School ended, from Dad we heard you were chasing Black Hand Gang people, one hour still hasn't passed and you haven't returned, so we came over this side to find you."

"You guys really didn't come at the right time, come out, my ninjas."

The Saint Lord waved a hand, shadows throughout the whole building twisted, one black-clothed masked ninja after another emerged from the shadows.

"It's the Black Shadow Corps."

Xiao Yu couldn't help but retreat one step, because from the shadow in front of her, a black-clothed ninja also emerged.

"These things don't seem to be living creatures, but clumps of weak energy composed."

Broly observed the black-clothed ninjas before him; these ninjas gave him the feeling not of living things, more like familiars similar to water elementals.

"Broly, you bastard better not act rashly, right now Jackie Chan is my hostage."

The Saint Lord drew Walong's cane sword, placed it on Jackie Chan's neck, and threatened.

"Long Shu!"

Seeing this, Xiao Yu worriedly shouted.

"Broly, don't mind me, quickly take Xiao Yu and leave this place."

And Jackie Chan, compared to his own safety, was more worried about his niece's safety, he directly shouted for Broly to take Xiao Yu away.

"No, Long Shu, we can't abandon you, we must save you!"

Xiao Yu refused to leave.

"But with the situation like this, how are you guys going to save me?"

Jackie Chan asked a rational question.

"Long Shu, rest assured, my speed is very fast, enough to easily save you before the Saint Lord makes a move on you."

Broly seriously said to Jackie Chan below.

"Haha, I won't be careless, even if you hold the Rabbit Talisman, I can guarantee before you save Jackie Chan, I'll make him..."

The Saint Lord's words weren't finished, the hand holding the cane sword was grabbed.

"What are you doing?"

He turned his head somewhat doubtfully to look at the Black Shadow Corps ninja beside him, only to have the Black Shadow Corps ninja beside him seize the sword, kick him out with one kick.

"Saint Lord, your Black Shadow Corps soldiers, why are they attacking us?"

A Fu, La Su and the others also encountered ninja siege, and after driving these people back, the sword-holding ninja came before Jackie Chan, one sword slashing down toward Jackie Chan.

"Oh, no!"

Jackie Chan subconsciously closed his eyes, but the event of being slashed by the sword didn't happen, rather the ropes on his body were slashed apart.

Two Black Shadow Corps ninjas jumped down, respectively hoisted his left and right arms, and carried him jumping up onto the second floor corridor.

After placing Jackie Chan before Xiao Yu, these ninjas all knelt on one knee toward Xiao Yu, like loyal ninjas who completed their lord's mission.

"Wow, the Black Shadow Corps ninjas saved Long Shu, they seem to be listening to my words."

Xiao Yu said with eyes wide open.

"But, Xiao Yu, how did you do it?"

Jackie Chan was still somewhat dazed, couldn't understand how his niece subverted the Saint Lord's Black Shadow Corps.

"I think, this should be related to this tattoo on my foot."

Xiao Yu revealed the tattoo on her ankle, only to see that tattoo now faintly emitting a subtle black light.

"Oh, no, Xiao Yu, you actually really got a tattoo?"

Jackie Chan stared wide-eyed, a look like the sky was falling.

"Uh, don't be nervous Long Shu, this is just a pattern I drew and put on as a water transfer sticker."

Xiao Yu hurriedly explained.

"Damn it, Jackie Chan's niece, she actually stole my manipulation permit for the Black Shadow Corps."

After rescuing Jackie Chan, the Black Shadow Corps ninjas no longer attacked the Saint Lord and the others.

At this moment, the Saint Lord also saw the pattern on the girl's foot from below, and roared somewhat angrily: "You little thief!"

"No, you're the thieves! Go, my ninjas, take back the Fu Shu Dazuan that the Saint Lord and the others stole from Broly's Antique Shop!"

After discovering she could command the Black Shadow Corps, Xiao Yu's interest was completely aroused; she didn't have Broly help, but instead commanded the Black Shadow Corps ninjas.

"You bunch of stupid goods, I'm your master!"

The Saint Lord cursed angrily, but the Black Shadow Corps ninjas wouldn't listen to him; the Black Shadow Corps ninjas summoned by the Saint Lord throughout the entire building all pounced on them.

The Saint Lord is not weak, but two fists are hard-pressed against N hands; he was soon kicked by a Black Shadow ninja, sending the Fu Shu Dazuan in his hand flying.

Another ninja leapt over, caught the airborne Fu Shu Dazuan, went directly upstairs to the Second Floor, arrived before Xiao Yu, knelt on one knee, and presented the Fu Shu Dazuan with both hands.

"Saint Lord, run quickly, we can't beat so many ninjas."

Red light flickered in the Saint Lord's eyes, and he spewed flames from his mouth, driving back a group of ninjas.

With a wave of his hand, he raised a cloud of magic smoke.

He took the Black Hand Gang and the others away, yet escaped from the ninjas' encirclement.

"Truly unlucky, we were almost beaten to death by our own people."

"Former own people."

Ten kilometers away, at another Black Hand Gang secret base, La Su and the others said with lingering fear; clearly the Black Shadow Corps wasn't this powerful when fighting Jackie Chan, don't know why they're this powerful when fighting them.

"Saint Lord, now the Fu Shu Dazuan has been taken back by Jackie Chan and them again, wanting to recapture it will be difficult; what should we do?"

"The Fu Shu Dazuan, that's not important anymore; the methods for dealing with demons recorded inside have already been destroyed by me; you guys prepare, we're going to enter District 13 to seize the Talismans."

"Eh, then what about the Black Shadow Corps?"

"The Black Shadow Corps isn't that easy to manipulate; Jackie Chan and Broly's side will definitely have trouble."

"Several pages were torn off the Fu Shu Dazuan; there must be methods for dealing with demons on them."

Bringing the book back to the antique shop, Long Shu examined it, sighed, and spoke.

"Long Shu, the important thing now isn't the Fu Shu Dazuan, but Xiao Yu."

Jackie Chan lifted his niece up, pulled up her pant leg to show Long Shu.

"Aiya, this is an Archdevil's mark; having this on your body will definitely attract some calamity."

Long Shu exclaimed.

"But Long Shu, this pattern hasn't brought me any calamity; on the contrary, it even helped me save Long Shu..."

Xiao Yu hurriedly told of how she manipulated the Black Shadow Corps to save Jackie Chan from the Saint Lord's hands.

"Just let me keep it; I guarantee I'll make the Black Shadow Corps I command do good things; isn't there a saying: power used for good becomes good, power used for evil becomes evil?"

Xiao Yu showed an ingratiating smile to Long Shu; she really wanted to keep this ability to command the Black Shadow Corps.

"The words are correct, but that refers to powers without magic power; some powers are inherently incomparably dangerous, and will lead people into darkness."

"But I've tried; it can't be washed off."

"Magic must be countered with magic; a mark with magic power must be cleansed with a special demon potion; Long Shu has to go to the room to concoct the potion; don't come disturb Long Shu."

Long Shu's attitude was very firm, same as Jackie Chan; he wouldn't allow Xiao Yu to keep the demon mark on her ankle.

"One more thing!"

The closed door suddenly opened, and Long Shu poked his head out.

"Before Long Shu concocts the cleansing demon potion, Xiao Yu, you must not randomly use the power of the mark on your foot anymore, understand?"

"Uh, understood."

Facing Long Shu's serious gaze, Xiao Yu could only nod in agreement.

"Very good."

Long Shu satisfactorily closed the door.

"Sigh~"

Xiao Yu then sighed somewhat dejectedly.

"Broly, do you think this is reasonable?"

"What reasonable?"

"That Long Shu and the others insist on washing off this mark of mine; clearly as long as I have this mark, the Saint Lord and them can't command the Black Shadow Corps, and I can even have the Black Shadow Corps deal with the Saint Lord and them."

"I think they're just worried about your safety."

"But what danger is there in being able to command the Black Shadow Corps? Look, how well they listen to me!"

As Xiao Yu spoke, she had the ninjas perform acrobatics.

In Xiao Yu's room, a ninja tossed multiple ping-pong balls, a ninja performed blindfolded dart throwing.

Tap-tap-tap sounds rang out, displaying a wonderful human outline technique.

"Xiao Yu, you promised Long Shu not to randomly use the mark's power."

"Broly, you're my best friend, that's why I shared my troubles with you, but now you're not prepared to stand on my side either?"

"Uh, okay, I'm on your side; you want to keep the mark that commands ninjas, I think there'll be a way."

"Broly, I knew it; you and me are partners."

Xiao Yu was very happy; because of Broly's stance, her Happiness Value reached 60 points.

Yet she and Broly had only known each other for 17 days.
