Chapter 346: Space Distortion
"Recently, there seem to be quite a few more flies around here." Lingyun stood before the floor-to-ceiling window and sighed softly.
"Looking at it this way, someone in the Lion King Organization wants to make a move against us." The Destruction Power at Liuli's fingertips flickered and vanished. "Lingyun, do you want me to destroy these flies here?"
Over this period, perhaps because she had become Lingyun's familiar, Liuli's Destruction Power had recovered rapidly, and her strength was already showing signs of surpassing Lingyun's.
"No, there's no need for you to act. If you act, the traces will be a bit too obvious. Your actions a while ago have already made the other side wary." Lingyun waved his hand slightly.
"Are we just going to let them spy on us here?" Liuli said with a look of indignation.
"Just because you don't act doesn't mean I can't!" Lingyun smiled faintly and tapped his finger on his own brow. "If a tiger doesn't show its might, they really take me for a Hello Kitty!"
A circle of invisible ripples spread out from his body, instantly enveloping the area of several hundred meters around the Villa, and all the Shikigami hidden around the Villa were instantly captured by Lingyun.
"Extinguish!" Following Lingyun's soft shout, the invisible spiritual sense ripples instantly erupted with terrifying power, grinding all the Shikigami into fragments. At the same time, a sliver of power carrying Destruction Power followed the invisible connection between the Shikigami and their masters, giving them a fierce blow.
Lingyun did not intend to hold back with this move; as for the final outcome for those hit by his spiritual sense attack, it would depend entirely on their luck.
"A spiritual sense attack, huh? Those guys' luck is really quite bad!" Feeling the ripples that were difficult for ordinary people to perceive, Liuli chuckled and said.
"It's just a small warning. I hope the people from the Lion King Organization can accept this lesson; otherwise, the consequences are not something they can bear." Lingyun looked into the distance, not knowing what he was thinking.
"By the way, Lingyun, I received some not-so-good news earlier." Liuli said suddenly.
"Did something happen?" Lingyun asked.
"I received intelligence earlier saying that the Meiya sisters, who once caused a huge disaster in the North Sea Empire, appeared near Itogami Island last night. As soon as they acted, they wiped out a small detachment of the Special Zone Security Force, causing huge casualties, and even shattered one of the areas of Itogami Island." Liuli said. "Now these two dangerous elements should have already infiltrated Itogami Island."
"The Meiya sisters? I've heard Lingyun mention that these two come from an organization called the Library, belong to the First Team Philosophy, are witches of Ashidang, and are internationally wanted Level 1 criminal mages. These two once held a dangerous Magic ritual within the territory of Ashidang in the North Sea Empire, and the huge disaster caused an entire prefecture to disappear." Lingyun had spent quite a long time by Nangong Nayue's side, so he also had some understanding of the origins of various criminals. "Ten years ago, they caused a huge disaster on Itogami Island, but ended up being beaten half to death by Na Yue, were almost thrown into the Prison Barrier, and finally escaped Itogami Island with their lives. Now that they actually have the guts to return here, they must have some reliance."
"If I remember correctly, their target this time should be the witch who manages the entire Library and is locked in the Prison Barrier, Xiandumu Aye." Liuli said.
"Xiandumu Aye?" Lingyun raised his eyebrows slightly, unable to help but think of the woman in a kimono he had seen in the Prison Barrier before.
"A witch, someone who exchanged her own soul to be granted powerful strength by a Devil, huh." Lingyun sighed, "Speaking of which, Na Yue is also a witch!"
"Regardless of whether she's a witch or not, as long as you act, Lingyun, there won't be any problems, right?" Liuli covered her mouth and chuckled, her eyes flashing with an inexplicable light.
Just as the two were talking, an invisible ripple suddenly swept past them.
Lingyun's eyes narrowed instantly, and several silver Space Arrays unfolded around his body. The arrays expanded rapidly, then flew directly out through the window, enveloping the entire Villa.
"That feeling just now, it was a space displacement, right?" Because her specialization did not lean toward this aspect, although Liuli felt it, she was not very certain.
"It was indeed a space displacement. It seems there really is a problem." Lingyun said.
Just at this moment, the door was suddenly pushed open, and Ashtarte, dressed in a maid outfit, walked in.
"Visually confirming search target." Ashtarte's gaze fell on Lingyun, and she spoke expressionlessly. "Reporting current status. At the scheduled contact at nine o'clock this morning, contact with the Instructor was lost."
"Na Yue is missing?" Lingyun and Liuli looked at each other, understanding that this matter was likely not that simple.
"The response procedure for this situation was instructed by the Instructor beforehand." Ashtarte said calmly. "Set Yese Xiayin as the priority protection target—that is what she instructed."
"Is that so? It seems Na Yue knew long ago that this kind of thing would happen." Lingyun nodded slightly. "Liuli, the matter regarding Xia Yin will be left to you for now. Although this girl has now ascended to become an Angel, she doesn't have any combat power herself."
"What about you?" Liuli asked.
"Me? Since the other side's target is the person in the Prison Barrier, then I will go to the Prison Barrier to wait for them." Lingyun said. "But you need to be a little careful. Before, the Lion King Organization couldn't easily make a move against us because of Na Yue. Now that Na Yue is missing, it's inevitable that some people will stir up trouble. Whether it's Xia Yin, who has transformed into an Angel, or Ashtarte, who possesses the Divine Vibration Wave Driving Formula, both could become their targets. You need to pay a little attention to this."
"I know. Both Xia Yin and Ashtarte are members of our household. If the people from the Lion King Organization really dare to make a move against them, I will let them see what a witch of destruction is." Liuli replied.
"Then I'll go to the Prison Barrier side to take a look first." An extremely complex Space Array unfolded beside Lingyun. "Sky Dragon, Giant God Soldier, Winged Dragon of Ra, let's go!"
Three streams of light of different colors instantly swept to Lingyun's side and landed steadily on his shoulders. A silver light flashed, and Lingyun disappeared into the array with them.
Although the Prison Barrier was a hypothetical world constructed by the magic maintained by Nangong Nayue when she entered a dormant state ten years ago, hidden in the gaps of space, Lingyun possessed the coordinates of Nangong Nayue's main body, so finding the Prison Barrier was not a particularly difficult matter.
Seeing Lingyun disappear, Liuli flicked her right hand slightly, and a small Scythe pendant appeared in her hand.
"Let's go, Ashtarte, we're going to find Xia Yin."
