Chapter 210: Who on Earth Is This Guy?

~7 min read 1,307 words

"Bang!"

In just one round, Balun was sent flying and crashed heavily onto the ground. Seeing this, Xia Liuqing's expression changed drastically, and he hurriedly helped Balun up.

"Go!" Alarm bells rang in Balun's heart. He could feel that the strength of the three people before him was unfathomable. "The strength of these people is too terrifying. Who on earth are they?"

Watching the two figures fleeing in a sorry state, Xiao Qing felt a bit unsatisfied: "Benefactor, are we just going to let them go like this?"

Lin Xuan shook his head lightly: "No rush, the good show has only just begun."

The battle in front of the pavilion had already entered a white-hot stage. The coordination between Xiao Zizai and Lao Meng was seamless; even Ma Xianhong's white puppets were beginning to feel overwhelmed.

"Is this the puppet you are so proud of?" Xiao Zizai mocked, "Copied abilities are barren after all."

Ma Xianhong's expression was uncertain. He discovered that the abilities copied by the white puppets appeared so powerless when facing these two.

This feeling made him exceptionally angry, and he could only look for opportunities to counterattack while dodging.

The night sky of Biyou Village was dyed crimson by the firelight. Thick smoke rose, and tongues of fire swallowed house after house, waking the sleeping villagers. Panicked shouts rose one after another; people carried buckets and shouldered tools, scrambling to put out the fire.

Yet in the midst of this chaos, the battle between Wang Zhenqiu and Harichagai showed no signs of stopping.

"Let me show you what true power is." Wang Zhenqiu's expression was calm as he formed hand seals, "Love Massage!"

A peculiar force instantly enveloped Harichagai. This was a special ability that struck directly at the spirit, capable of plunging an opponent into an illusion.

"What... is this..." Harichagai felt the scene before him begin to distort, his consciousness gradually blurring. In his field of vision, Wang Zhenqiu's figure became illusory and ethereal.

"Damn it... how could I lose to a... sissy..." Harichagai struggled to say these words, then collapsed heavily to the ground, falling into a coma.

Wang Zhenqiu looked at his fallen opponent and sighed lightly: "Finally, some peace and quiet."

However, just as he prepared to leave, a large number of villagers suddenly surged out from all around. Among them were ordinary people and Outsiders alike. The firelight illuminated their angry faces.

"That's him! It's these people who are destroying our village!" a villager shouted loudly.

Several Outsiders took the lead, and all sorts of abilities came attacking toward Wang Zhenqiu. Some controlled flames, some condensed Qi blades, and some even attempted to use mental power to influence him.

"Why bother?" Wang Zhenqiu shook his head and formed seals again, "Collective Massage!"

An invisible ripple spread out, and all the villagers rushing toward him collapsed to the ground as if their strength had been drained. This method showed Wang Zhenqiu's exquisite control over his abilities—making the opponents faint without causing substantial harm.

Just as he turned to leave, he suddenly sensed a powerful aura. Looking up, under the moonlight, three figures were standing on a nearby roof, though he did not know when they had arrived.

It was one man and two women. The man did not look old, yet he gave off an unfathomable feeling. The two women were stunningly beautiful, but their every gesture carried a sharp, piercing temperament.

"This aura..." Wang Zhenqiu's heart jolted. Although he did not know the other party's identity, just by standing there, they gave him a sense of oppression he could not contend with.

Lin Xuan glanced at him with a playful look in his eyes, then turned and left with Xiao Qing and Xiao Bai, as if he were completely unconcerned with the situation at hand.

"Wait!" Wang Zhenqiu wanted to pursue and ask, but the figures of the three had already vanished into the night.

He immediately took out his phone and dialed a number: "Hello, Hao Yi? Help me look into someone... no, three people. One man and two women, the man is..."

He described the features of Lin Xuan and the others in detail, especially that heart-palpitating aura.

"Good, notify me as soon as there is news." After hanging up, Wang Zhenqiu looked toward the pavilion. Reflected in the firelight, that building appeared particularly striking.

"It seems the real good show is yet to come." He muttered to himself, then stepped toward the pavilion.

The fire continued to spread, with cries and sounds of fighting intertwined. This originally tranquil village was experiencing a massive transformation on this restless night.

Moonlight spilled through the treetops, casting mottled shadows in the dense forest of Biyou Village. Heiguan stood in an open space, facing Liu Wukui and Zhong Xiaolong. The air was filled with a tense, sword-drawn atmosphere.

"Finally met some interesting opponents tonight." Heiguan loosened his wrists; the launcher on his arm gleamed coldly in the moonlight.

Liu Wukui snorted coldly: "Don't get too cocky. Five Directions Jiedi!" As his words fell, four Beijing opera masks with different designs appeared out of thin air and slowly rotated around him. Each mask emitted a unique energy fluctuation.

"A bit interesting." Heiguan examined the masks with interest, "However, defense alone won't win against me."

Zhong Xiaolong had already quietly circled to Heiguan's side: "Flick Finger Divine Skill!" A sharp burst of Qi erupted from his finger, aiming straight for Heiguan's vital points.

Yet Heiguan's reaction was shockingly fast. His launcher activated instantly, and Dharma Artifact marbles shot out like meteors, not only blocking Zhong Xiaolong's attack but also forming a complex attack network.

"Good coordination." Heiguan praised while dodging, "But it's still far from enough!"

Liu Wukui and Zhong Xiaolong exchanged a glance and immediately launched a tacit cooperation. The Five Directions Jiedi masks dispersed to form a perimeter, while Zhong Xiaolong's Flick Finger Divine Skill launched constant surprise attacks under the cover of this defensive circle.

"Now!" Both attacked at once, a powerful combined strike roaring toward Heiguan.

Dust rose everywhere. When the dust settled, Heiguan was lying on the ground laughing heartily: "Satisfying! Truly satisfying! However—" his voice suddenly turned cold, "it's time to let you see true strength."

The next moment, Heiguan's figure suddenly vanished. When he appeared again, he was already behind the two. Liu Wukui and Zhong Xiaolong did not even have time to react before they were struck by a powerful force and fell unconscious.

"Too weak." Heiguan shook his head and took the Dharma Artifacts from the two, "I'll keep these things for you for now."

He turned to leave, but suddenly sensed a heart-palpitating aura. Looking up, under the moonlight, three figures had appeared not far away, though he did not know when they had arrived.

It was one man and two women. The man did not look old, yet he gave off an unfathomable feeling. Heiguan understood instantly that the strength of this young man before him was far above his own.

"Hello." Heiguan said simply, then walked away quickly. It was only after walking a distance that he took out his phone and sent the photo he had just secretly taken to the Temporary Worker group.

"Have you seen this person?" Heiguan asked in the group, "Feels very unusual."

Soon, Wang Zhenqiu replied to the message: "I've seen them too. That kind of aura... is not something an ordinary Outsider could have."

Heiguan looked at his phone screen, lost in thought. In his many years of experience, he had never encountered an existence that made him so wary. But the most important thing now was to complete the mission; as for the identity of that Mysterious Person, it wouldn't be too late to check later.

Putting away his phone, Heiguan continued to rush toward the center of Biyou Village.
