One person: Started at Wudang, got hit on the head by Lu Zu's sword.

Page 206

As the flames from the explosion subsided, the spreading sound waves and shockwaves slowly receded, and the terrified expressions and shattered limbs of the NaDuTong Company employees quickly returned to their original positions.

It was as if nothing had happened.

Only the employees of NaDuTong Company, who were standing still as if in a dream, looked completely bewildered.

What just happened?

Or, was what just happened real?

Wow! So many people have come to welcome me?

Lu Xuan stepped out of the train carriage, with Er Zhuang, whose face was dark, on his shoulder.

If Erzhuang still can't figure out who's behind this, then all those years she's spent in the dark web, reflecting the darkest side of human nature, will have been for nothing.

"Master Lu?"

Upon seeing Lu Xuan appear, everyone present quickly surrounded him as if they had found their pillar of support.

The remaining employees of Natotong Company quickly dispersed to check the train station and suspicious persons.

"Master Lu, what just happened?"

"Yes! It feels like I'm dreaming."

Was that a bomb?

Old Zhang stumbled over from a distance, trying to suppress his fear and shock, and adjusted his glasses.

Is this even a human being?

Despite having made countless plans and contingency plans, when he actually witnessed Lu Xuanzhen's legendary extraordinary abilities, Old Zhang couldn't help but feel despair.

Can this guy even be considered human?

Is this still the world of supernatural beings I know?

"Master Lu, are you alright?!"

Old Zhang forced a sincere smile onto his face, but anyone could see the panic and guilt he felt for failing to protect his friend.

Old Zhang has even started planning how to shift the blame onto those who are involved in shamanic practices.

But looking into Lu Xuan's eyes, Old Zhang's heart skipped a beat for a moment for no reason.

"Master Lu, I..."

"You're Old Zhang?"

Lu Xuan's voice rang out, his gaze deep and mysterious, as if he were speaking with profound meaning.

"Isn't it better to have the chance to be a human being? Why do you have to be a dog for Bihe Ren?"

Upon hearing this, the previously chattering employees of NaDuTong Company instantly scattered into a circle, surrounding Old Zhang and eyeing him menacingly.

They had gathered around and made a fuss because Lu Xuan was there. They didn't need to worry about their safety at all, nor did they think there was any problem that could stump Lu Xuan. They trusted and even admired Lu Xuan.

Someone who is qualified and willing to actively participate in the event to welcome Lu Xuan, and who has managed to get by in the Northeast region of Anydotong, is someone that Lao Zhang wants to get rid of along the way. How could he be incompetent?

Naturally, upon hearing Lu Xuan's words, they didn't even refute or ask any questions, but instead surrounded Lao Zhang, a colleague they had known for a long time.

Their trust in Lu Xuan is evident.

Seeing that so many people had surrounded him without saying a word, he realized that they had completely surrounded him.

Old Zhang's heart suddenly pounded, his temples throbbed from the impact of the high blood pressure, and he felt as if all the strength in his body had vanished.

Has my identity been discovered?

No! That's impossible. At most, he'll just suspect me.

I am a senior executive at Nadutong Company, I am a deeply hidden spy, I... still have a chance.

He has no evidence, he has no evidence, I still have a chance!

Thinking of this, Old Zhang managed a weak smile.

"Master Lu, have you misunderstood something?"

A sword light, like a waterfall, instantly engulfed Old Zhang.

Old Zhang instinctively wanted to resist and used the methods of the shamanic lineage to try to summon the spirit he had invited to worship.

Suddenly, an ancient and sinister aura slowly spread, and it seemed as if something in the darkness was beginning to awaken.

But that will hadn't had a chance to manifest yet.

The all-pervasive, all-encompassing sword light flashed past, erasing the contract between them.

"Who goes there?..."

An angry will surged from the darkness, but before it could say anything more, it vanished completely in the sword light.

"May the spirits of heroes from all ages possess me..."

Old Zhang let out a roar from the depths of his bones, and the true power hidden in his bones and buried deep in his blood, which even the shamanic lineage had concealed, began to awaken.

An endless, gloomy, and terrifying black aura swept and spread, and hideous souls manifested from Old Zhang's body.

"Awaken! My heroic spirits, the spirits of all generations of Higanbana ninja..."

"Let the world see your power."

An endless fervor appeared on Old Zhang's face. Bihe Ren was his lifelong goal and his only belief. In his eyes, Bihe Ren's future was the future he wanted.

There's no future like this, that's not the future I want! Damn it!

With a flash of sword light, the ghostly spirits that had appeared on Old Zhang's body were completely annihilated by the sword light before they could even emerge.

Then, there's the flesh and bones of Old Zhang.

Old Zhang's smile vanished before it could even fully bloom.

How could that be? Those are the heroic spirits of my ancestors throughout the ages!

How could it have disappeared so easily?

Old Zhang had no time to think; endless pain had overwhelmed his reason and even touched his soul.

The sword light was all-pervasive, yet incredibly gentle, melting away his fur inch by inch, and then the flesh beneath his skin.

After the flesh and blood dissolve, what remains are tendons, bones, veins, bone marrow, and essence...

Even! It has its own soul!

"No! No, please let me go! Let me go!"

Old Zhang's face—no, it was no longer a face, not even a bone—was left, only a soul worn away inch by inch.

Lu Xuan's sword light was not simply killing people; it was about slowly tearing him apart inch by inch before grinding his bones to ashes.

Feeling your flesh, bones, veins, and even your soul being slowly and painlessly torn apart.

Old Zhang thought himself resolute, but he found that his will was utterly vulnerable under such pain.

"I'll tell you everything, just let me go! Let me go!"

Old Zhang let out a series of mournful cries, overwhelmed by the burden.

To outsiders, he was engulfed by the sword light in an instant.

But for him, it was a long and agonizing process, and he couldn't even feel the passage of time.

Unfortunately, Lu Xuan didn't have any questions.

"I just want to torture you!"

"I was planning to save you for last, but you just had to come and die..."

For the first time, a hint of murderous intent appeared in Lu Xuan's eyes.

Whatever happens in the world of supernatural beings is ultimately a matter for the domestic supernatural beings community. How dare these remnants of the Bihe Ren have the right to interfere?

These people are like poisonous thorns, causing endless harm.

Only by annihilating them all!

The death of Old Zhang amidst the sword light was a long and agonizing process, but to the outside world it was only a fleeting moment.

Old Zhang's body exploded with a bang, turning into a pile of bloody mud. His flesh, bones, and even his soul were ground to a finer state, and his soul was scattered.

Unfortunately, it seems like they used too much force!

Lu Xuan shook his head, looking at the "corpses" that Old Zhang had smeared all over the ground. From Old Zhang's memories, he saw the remnants of Bihe Ren and Shi Die's scheme, as well as Shi Die's existence.

The latter is currently more than 100 kilometers away, waiting for the outcome of this operation.

Shi Die looked into the distance, her sinister face reflected in the mirror.

He looked down at his phone, which hadn't received any messages yet, and frowned.

"What's going on? Why haven't we heard from Old Zhang yet?"

Suddenly, Stone Butterfly seemed to sense something.

Looking up, I saw the figure of a young Taoist priest appear out of thin air on the glass curtain wall in front of me. It seemed that the figure had also traveled through endless distances to see me.

Then, the voice of the young figure rang out.

"Don't worry, you'll meet soon."

Chapter 202: Like a dead dog.

This was the first thought that came to Shi Die's mind when she saw Lu Xuan's figure appear on the glass curtain wall in front of her.

No, this must be a hallucination.

How could Lu Xuan have escaped unscathed with so many explosives?

Even if Lu Xuan wasn't injured, the explosives planted this time could overturn the entire train; there was no way there wouldn't be a commotion.

Therefore, this must be an illusion...

Just as Shi Die was frantically trying to convince herself, the glass curtain wall in front of her rippled like water, and then Lu Xuan's figure walked out from it.

"No, no, no, how could this be?"
