Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 559: Besiege (Request for Subscription)

Lelajin, who had utilized his formidable self-healing ability to regenerate from a pile of mud into human form, was now filled with endless fury. He was furious because he fell for that boy's trick due to his momentary carelessness. If it weren't for his current powerful strength, he would have been obliterated by this round of attacks.

If Pei Yan was known for his narrow-mindedness, then Lelajin was certainly not a forgiving person either. He held grudges against old "friends" who used to suppress him and would definitely not tolerate a nameless nobody who put him in a disgraceful situation escaping right before his eyes.

So when he caught sight of Zheng Jia Ru carrying Pei Yan and retreating from the battlefield, his eyes widened in anger. He turned and shot two slashes of Qi towards them, but before they could land, they were blocked by a figure. As the fists moved, the Qi slashes exploded in mid-air, the chaotic airflow blew the newcomer's hair, and a sinister smile revealed a set of black teeth as he said, "Your opponent now is us!"

"Are you Black Teeth?" Lelajin asked probingly, looking at the face of the person who flew towards him.

"Have I become that famous already?" Gu Shenghui, knowing that lies would eventually be exposed, showed no surprise, and said calmly.

"Although I don't think highly of your strength, the name Black Teeth does carry some weight within several planes! Moreover, knowing that the personnel attacking Disaster Territory comes from the Foundation Plane, we've collected a dossier on potential personnel!" Lelajin said as he rubbed his shoulder. With a casual wave of his hand, a flash of light appeared, dressing him in a new robe.

Gu Shenghui didn't speak, but cursed silently in his heart. It's either this Lelajin is so dumb that he doesn't know how to protect the source of information, or he doesn't intend for anyone here to return alive. Either way, his words exposed their close ties with the Foundation Plane.

Just like Pei Yan, the name of that organization immediately surfaced in his mind. This double-dealing lot, Gu Shenghui vowed to share this intelligence with investigation bureaus across nations upon his return. It was time for a full-scale purge of this cancer, at any cost to eliminate the hidden threat.

However, the immediate priority is to deal with this troublesome bastard. At this moment, Lelajin spoke grandly again after changing his outfit: "I have no mood to waste time with you now. Be sensible and step aside, hand over that boy's life to me! Perhaps I might spare....."

His words were interrupted by a mocking voice accompanied by a punch gust behind his ear: "Save your energy! The investigation bureau doesn't abandon its comrades!"

Being forcefully interrupted, Lelajin's face twitched, provoked multiple times. His anger was finally ignited. Without even looking, he twisted his body and launched a backhand elbow strike at the attacker's head. With a dull thud, his elbow collided with an obstructing palm, sending the person flying sideways.

Looking sidelong at the figure that was sent flying and feeling the energy emanating from them, Lelajin frowned and his face changed: "Who are you really?"

Xie Chujun stabilized his figure in mid-air, smiling as he countered, "You guess?" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

Upon hearing this, Lelajin's face became even uglier. Unlike Gu Shenghui and Pei Yan, whose blood-demon power was concealed by other abilities and went undetected, Xie Chujun was now exuding the same blood-demon aura as Lelajin, plunging Lelajin into perplexity. Since joining the Blood Demon, he knew this organization had grand ambitions, with operatives secretly lurking among major forces across different planes. Could this person be one of them? If so, would killing or exposing him affect the organization's plans?

While he was hesitant, the three people besieging him did not hold back. As he hesitated, Gu Shenghui, Xie Chujun, and Samikina launched an attack from three directions.

Facing the three's assault, Lelajin quickly fell into a passive position. Against Xie Chujun's relentless pursuit, he finally snapped after several heavy blows and shouted, "I'll spare the lives of you two, but don't be foolish and leave quickly!"

Saying this only provoked them further, and the two intensified their attacks. Furious and humiliated, Lelajin roared, "You're seeking death!" As soon as the words left his mouth, Demon Sect red light surged atop Lelajin's head. Boundless demonic Qi poured out from his robe. As he leaped out of the circle while waving his long sleeve, countless long arrows formed by demonic Qi suspended before him.

"Be careful! His death power is extremely troublesome! Do not get hit by the arrows!" Samikina warned as he mobilized his demonic Qi to defend himself, and uttered a reminder.

Taking advantage of the opening, Gu Shenghui set up a defense while also querying, "He's so difficult to handle! How did you deal with people like this on the Holy City front line?"

"Within the Holy City, there exist Princes and Demon God Guards whose strength and aptitude far surpass mine. These traitors have the Disaster Legion's strength boost, while top characters on our side were granted special powers by the Demon God. Only then could a delicate balance be achieved, but I don't have the privilege of receiving the Demon God's favor!" Samikina's voice revealed a trace of helplessness and unwillingness as he spoke.

During their conversation, swift arrows were raining down directly towards the three. Gu Shenghui dodged left and right and, when he couldn't avoid them, relied on his core to forcibly block them. Unfortunately, the opponent's demonic Qi flowed like a rushing river endlessly. These long arrows were controlled with precision by Lelajin; even if an arrow missed, it wouldn't disappear but instead turned around in mid-air to continue its assault.

After several rounds of siege, Gu Shenghui showed a flaw. A long arrow broke through his core defense and hit his arm. Watching the demonic Qi swiftly burrowing into his body at the point of impact, causing his skin to fester rapidly, emitting a foul stench, Gu Shenghui thought to himself that this was bad. As he retreated urgently, he continuously adjusted his core to expel the demonic Qi and repair the rotting wound.

As the three engaged in a fierce battle with Lelajin, Zheng Jia Ru, carrying Pei Yan, had already returned swiftly to the army. Seated at the central army, Sifuer had already witnessed everything happening on the battlefield through the light ball. Seeing Lelajin act maliciously and her uncle and Pei Yan struggling, her heart felt like it's on a hot pan, tormented, yet there was nothing she could do. All she could do was calm her troops and observe developments.

Thus, when she saw Pei Yan retreating from the battlefield, she immediately led several Personal Guards to the investigation bureau's tent to inquire, only to be roughly pushed aside by Zheng Jia Ru, supporting Pei Yan, and shouted angrily, "Get out! This is none of your business! Anyone who intrudes within 200 meters of this tent without being from the investigation bureau will be killed without mercy!"
