Cannon-Fodder Heiress Turns the Tables by Fortune-Telling-Chapter 744 - 742: Turns Out the Special Administration Bureau Folks Are Pretty Ruthless Too (Second Update)
With the arrival of Wanqi Yu and others, the situation of confrontation instantly changed.
Those pretending to be maintenance workers pulled out their Magic Artifacts, trying to fight Gu Yuan and his team desperately, hoping to escape.
Wanqi Yu immediately recognized their Magic Artifacts and exclaimed, "You are the Black Robed People!"
Xuan Chu, who had already gained the upper hand, paused with his hand full of talisman papers.
What! These people turned out to be the notorious Black Robed People!
Their identities exposed, the few of them instantly looked extremely dangerous.
As Black Robed People, if their faces were revealed, the only thing awaiting them was death.
"Damn!"
Seeing them about to fight desperately, Gu Yuan directly threw a handful of talisman papers.
Immediately, a series of crackling sounds erupted.
Just by listening, one could feel how painful it was for those subjected to the attack.
Gu Yuan, not satisfied with just one handful, threw several more handfuls.
Because he was wealthy and extravagant, he could afford it!
The crackling sound was even more lively than the firecrackers of a store opening celebration.
Wanqi Yu: ...
So, was his urgent rush here a bit redundant?
After the talisman papers were used up, those who wanted to fight with Gu Yuan were now lying on the ground in a battered state, powerless.
The work uniforms they wore were unrecognizable, tattered and torn, resembling beggars’ clothes.
The air gradually filled with the scent of blood, and Gu Yuan glanced at his subordinates.
"Take them downstairs. Even if we can’t pry their mouths open, we absolutely cannot let them die!"
The Special Administration Bureau had some experience capturing Black Robed People, knowing that these people often carried special Prohibitions.
They might truly know nothing, merely used as disposable tools.
Or, they might know some things but could never express them; once they spoke, death was certain. 𝑓𝘳𝑒𝑒𝓌𝘦𝘣𝘯ℴ𝑣𝘦𝑙.𝘤𝑜𝑚
The subordinates quickly took modified ropes from their bags.
They tied up the few who were covered in wounds, their clothes soaked with blood, but not in mortal danger.
As the subordinates prepared to take them away for detention, Gu Yuan tidied his hair.
"We’ve received some good news; it’s time for us to head down."
With that, he contacted Xie Xuzhi, who was still at the mountain’s base, as he walked.
[Boss, I caught a few Black Robed People who knew their way around!]
After sending the message, Gu Yuan looked at Wanqi Yu approaching him and saw the indescribable expression in his eyes.
He chuckled lightly, "Why that expression?"
Wanqi Yu sighed inwardly; what could he say, he had really expanded his horizons. Who knew people from the Special Administration Bureau could be so dogged?
His mentor’s men had intercepted Black Robed People many times, and he had participated, but had never seen the Black Robed People so wretched before.
He could only say, indeed, ’city folks’ really know how to play.
"Nothing, just thinking, you managed to handle them on your own..."
Gu Yuan quickly waved his hand, "No no no, if it were just me, they would certainly choose to run away.
But your appearance blocked their retreat, making them subconsciously give up on escape.
Thus, they were forced to confront me directly, but I’m not stupid; this isn’t a martial arts arena where rules matter, right?"
Wanqi Yu reminded himself secretly, it’s best not to provoke the people from the Special Administration Bureau in the future. These people play unpredictably.
"By the way, how did you recognize those people as Black Robed People?"
Gu Yuan didn’t doubt Wanqi Yu’s words, he was genuinely curious.
Wanqi Yu lowered his eyelids, masking the emotions in his eyes.
He said lightly, "I’ve crossed paths with them before, and just recognized their Magic Artifacts. The ones those people carried were commonly used by low-ranking Black Robed People."
Gu Yuan took a deep look at Wanqi Yu. The people at the Special Administration Bureau had plenty of dealings with the Black Robed People, yet he hadn’t noticed.
This indicated that Wanqi Yu’s connection with the Black Robed People was not ordinary.
But, since Yun Ran vouched for Wanqi Yu, Gu Yuan was willing to turn a blind eye and not probe into the secrets of the Wanqi Family.
"I see, then let’s head down the mountain. I have made findings here, but I want to see what others have discovered."
Both Yun Ran and Xuan Chu had discoveries, but the Dragon Spirit, which initially heard the Dragon Roar, was now scratching its ears in vain, finding nothing.
As he walked, he kicked away stones in his path, cursing under his breath.
"What a damned place, I am a Dragon Spirit, and yet I can’t find any clues about my kin. Is there any justice in this?"
For a moment, the Dragon Spirit felt a conspiracy theory brewing, thinking the Guardian Dragon Spirit here looked down on him, a Jiao Long that transformed into a dragon.
So despite knowing he was searching for them, they didn’t even make a sound, as if they weren’t dead yet!
The four Guardian Dragon Spirits: Ha, if they could move and tell others their location, they wouldn’t be trapped here for so many years!
"No, I must find the location of those useless fellows; otherwise, wouldn’t Yun Ran laugh at me? Then add fuel to the flames in front of the Junior Master Uncle, how will I save face?"
With that, the Dragon Spirit heedlessly split half of its Dragon Soul and directly sent it into the Five Emperors Mountain’s body.
The Dragon Spirit’s face instantly turned from rosy to pale and weak, looking like someone recovering from a severe illness.
The Dragon Soul, newly entering the mountain, initially believed it could freely penetrate the mountain body and find the other Guardian Dragon Spirits.
Suddenly, a whirring sounded in the Dragon Soul’s ears, and by the time the Dragon Spirit realized something was amiss, it was too late.
With a cry, it spat out a mouthful of blood.
Trying to recall its Dragon Soul, it found it was already caught by an unseen force, unable to move.
The Dragon Spirit, caught at its own game, glared viciously at the mountain where it sent its Dragon Soul.
"You damn place! There’s actually a Spirit Capturing Array here!"
No wonder the Guardian Dragon Spirits couldn’t respond, and he couldn’t find them. Not only were the mountains anchored, but even the Dragon Spirits were captured.
The Dragon Spirit formed seals again, attempting to recall its Dragon Soul, but there was no response, not even a slight echo.
Dragon Spirit: ...
Really pissed off, just wait. He’ll tell the Junior Master Uncle; if they don’t reclaim lost ground, he’d rather stay at sea forever, never coming to the human world again!
Now, he and whoever laid down this spirit-binding array are archenemies!
