The Pu Family Deploys

Pu Jianyue's gaze flowed as he swept his peripheral vision over his surroundings, as if looking for something...

After a slight hesitation, he spoke indifferently:

"Consider yourselves sensible."

After speaking, his figure swayed, and he soared into the air right before everyone's eyes, flying out of the broken ceiling!

Pu Jianyue causing such a scene at the Canal Gang was to attract the Silver King. Now that he had done all he could, he couldn't actually take action to teach these people of the Canal Gang a lesson. Putting aside whether he could win against them or not, the news of Six of Hearts appearing had already spread. If those Eighth-Tier or even Demigods took action after hearing the news in a while, he would definitely die without a doubt.

Seeing "Chen Ling" finally leave, the members of the Canal Gang finally relaxed their hanging hearts, faces showing the rejoicing of surviving a disaster.

"What are you still standing there for??"

That Seventh-Tier expert spoke through gritted teeth, "Quickly go inform the Pu Family and the higher-ups of the South Sea!! Are we really just going to let him move around freely in the Domain?! That's a World-Ending entity!!"

The Canal Gang only had two Seventh-Tier experts and didn't dare to clash head-on with Chen Ling. But the Pu Family was different. The Pu Family was the number one Divine Path organization in the South Sea. Not only did they have Demigods and Eighth-Tier experts holding down the fort, they also had more confidence even when facing the Mockery Calamity.

The Gang Leader originally wanted someone to secretly track Pu Jianyue, but thinking carefully, the tracking skills of these people definitely couldn't compare to Six of Hearts, who was best at disguising himself. Moreover, their Canal Gang had managed to escape a disaster with great difficulty, so why would they take the initiative to provoke this Plague God... Such a level of enemy, it was better to let the Lord of the South Sea and the Pu Family get headaches over it.

On the other side, Pu Jianyue darted toward a secluded alleyway at extreme speed without looking back.

His figure split into brush strokes to teleport again and again, recovering his human form again and again. In the blink of an eye, he had already run several kilometers, his nervous heart almost jumping out of his chest!

Was the Silver King watching him?

Had the Lord of the South Sea and those high-tier Divine Path Possessors chased after him?

At this moment, Pu Jianyue completely lacked the domineering aura from earlier and was just sprinting Risking One's Life. He had done what he should have done. Regardless of whether the Silver King took the bait, there was only one thought in his mind, and that was to shake everyone off.

"Move faster, leave no traces, escape as soon as possible..."

Pu Jianyue muttered to himself. His peripheral vision caught sight of a sewer manhole cover nearby. His eyes lit up, and his figure instantly turned into a massive amount of brush strokes, disappearing within it.

...

"The Six of Hearts, Chen Ling, has shown up at the Canal Gang!"

The words echoed in the sky above the Pu Family. Han Meng, who had just walked into the Courtyard, suddenly stopped in his tracks.

He looked at the figure frantically running in the Pu Family to deliver the message. First, shock flashed in his eyes, followed by a trace of confusion emerging...

Chen Ling wasn't in the Pu Family?

How could this be... Did he guess wrong?

Even for Han Meng, at this moment, he felt confusion towards his own reasoning. He originally thought he was about to catch Chen Ling, but unexpectedly, in the blink of an eye, Chen Ling had appeared in a place he had never envisioned.

Not only Han Meng, but the others who were interrogating and being interrogated were also stunned.

Six of Hearts?

He was actually really in the South Sea Domain?!

So the two Councilors were really killed by him? Then what were they still interrogating for right now??

"Everyone in the Pu Family above the Sixth Stage, come with me! Track down the World-Ending Calamity Chen Ling!!"

A thunderous loud noise came from deep within the Pu Family. The Head of the Pu Family actually walked out of his room personally. Rank 8 Aura dissipated out, stirring the world as if it were the color of ink. In the next second, his figure turned into a stream of light and disappeared into the horizon.

The Pu Family was the pillar of the South Sea Domain. Now that the Mockery Calamity had revealed its traces, the Pu Family had to take the lead. With the Family Head personally taking action, those elders of the Pu Family also took action one after another, flying toward the direction of the Canal Gang!

"What? Do you still want to continue interrogating?"

Pu Chunshu looked coldly at the person in charge who had been incredibly tough just now, interrogating him alone, and spoke with a trace of mockery.

Hearing that the real Six of Hearts was at the Canal Gang, the person in charge's face couldn't hold on either. They had just caused such a huge commotion searching the Pu Family... and as a result, before the interrogation even ended, the real culprit had already exposed himself outside, making them, this group of officials, appear extremely foolish.

"... There's no need." The person in charge took a deep breath, "It seems this time was a misunderstanding..."

"I don't care whether it was a misunderstanding or not. I only know that now that the Mockery Calamity has appeared, we members of the Pu Family are charging at the very front, and what about you guys?" Pu Chunshu sneered. "Do you guys want to go with us to track down the Mockery Calamity?"

The person in charge's face turned pale, not saying a word.

They were just investigators and officials of the case, lacking such high-tier Divine Pathways to track the Mockery Calamity? How was that any different from seeking death?

"I know you were acting on orders, but the Pu Family also needs face." Pu Chunshu said indifferently, "After this incident is over... we will properly settle this account."

After speaking, Pu Chunshu erupted with Sixth Stage Aura, closely following those streams of light in pursuit!

With all the high-tier Combat Power of the Pu Family deployed, only some Juniors were left behind. The entire residential compound quieted down, and those officials who were halfway through their interrogations also looked at each other in blank dismay.

"What are you still standing there for?" The person in charge walked through the Courtyard, heading straight for the main gate, his complexion looking somewhat unsightly.

"Retreat!"

Everyone immediately walked out of the Pu Family as if fleeing for their lives, got into the vehicles at the entrance, and left amidst bursts of rumbling sounds.

Seeing this, a flash of pleasant surprise flashed through Pu Shu's eyes!

"Cousin, they left! They didn't even get to interrogate us!"

Pu Shu's hanging heart was completely put at ease. Originally, he was still worried that the things he had done would be exposed, but now it seemed that they wouldn't come back to interrogate anyone in a short time... No, it should be said that it was hard to say whether this group of people could even continue working in the government in the future.

This meant that he was completely safe!

Pu Shu was in a very good mood. He suddenly felt that the Six of Hearts wasn't that annoying now, actually jumping out to cause trouble at such a coincidental time and bailing him out.

"Mm." Chen Ling looked in the direction the Pu Family members left, and absent-mindedly replied.

Hearing of his whereabouts, the Pu Family's reaction was actually this huge?

Deploying so many people in one breath just to surround and block him? Under the encirclement and suppression of so many Sixth, Seventh, and Eighth-Tiers, could that idiot successfully escape? Right now wasn't the time for him to be caught in the net yet.

But it didn't matter...

If Pu Jianyue, this tool man, became useless, then he could just create a new "Six of Hearts."

"Cousin, it's Han Meng!" Pu Shu saw Han Meng's figure from afar, a sharp light flashing in his eyes!

Pu Shu had just luckily escaped a disaster, and knowing that no one would dare to provoke the Pu Family in a short time, it was exactly a time of lawlessness. Now that he happened to see his old enemy walking over, it was naturally impossible for him to swallow his anger.

He sneered, "Cousin, it's time to go beat him down a bit... What do you say?"

Seeing Han Meng walking toward them, Chen Ling's expression was somewhat subtle. He glanced at Pu Shu, who was currently highly spirited, and finally nodded:

"Go ahead, I'll back you up."
