Chapter 105: The Overlooked Event
In a loft in the northern part of the Royal City.
Miss Kirin held the bloody meatball in her hand and looked at the handsome youth before her. There was a hint of strangeness in her gaze behind the mask.
"So, you mean... this thing is what was left of the Goat Netherkin after using his life-saving technique, and you happened to see through his plan and intercepted it?"
"That's right."
Luo Wusheng nodded and shrugged. He sounded somewhat helpless as he said, "I don't have a deep understanding of a Nascent Soul Netherkin secret technique, and this life saving technique of his is quite peculiar— Upon careful consideration, it would be more appropriate to leave it to the Immortal Nation for disposal."
Upon hearing his words, Miss Kirin didn't know what to say for a moment.
He didn't have a deep understanding of Nascent Soul Netherkin secret technique? this life saving technique was quite peculiar?
Should these words be said by the Demon Sect Holy Saint? The only person who saw through the Goat Netherkin technique and captured him before he can flee back to the Netherland?
However, she started to contemplate the situation.
Was it really just a coincidence?
Thinking of the Holy Saint of the Demon Sect, who clearly only stood on the periphery but had a tremendous impact on the battle, Miss Kirin couldn't help but ponder.
In her view, although Luo Wusheng seemed to only manage the Demon Artifact Pavilion in the Royal City, he had secretly acquired a vast amount of information about the city. He seemed to know more about the specific plan made by the Netherkin Nation soldier within the Royal City than the Immortal Nation did in advance.
'His behavior when he spoke about the Netherkin Nation's plot the other day seemed like he didn't want to get involved, but today he chose to come voluntarily, If he had just been observing quietly, it would have fit my previous speculation, but...'
Miss Kirin couldn't fully comprehend what the other party wanted to do.
Just as she was lost in thought, she heard Luo Wusheng's seemingly casual voice.
"By the way, why did Miss Kirin come over here? Is there anything suspicious?"
"...I did feel something off."
After a moment of contemplation, Miss Kirin, who had snapped out of her daze, nodded. "I sensed some strange fluctuations in the aura here, so I came to investigate— Now that I think about it, perhaps it's related to this thing."
Her gaze fell on the meatball in her hand, which looked somewhat terrifying and disgusting. The Golden-Ranked member of the Six Gate Bureau sighed lightly.
There was something she didn't say.
The person who most aroused her curiosity was actually standing right in front of her at this moment.
Luo Wusheng raised an eyebrow after hearing her words.
Although he didn't know the principle behind the Goat Netherkin's technique, based on the fact that it could appear directly from within his eye space, it shouldn't be so easily exposed.
Luo Wusheng's gaze flickered.
He suddenly remembered the feeling of having overlooked something that occurred before he entered seclusion yesterday.
Due to unexpectedly entering seclusion until today, close to the time of the Netherkin Extermination Operation, he had forgotten about this matter.
But what exactly did he overlook?
He quickly made a decision in his mind.
"Now that I've handed over this thing and the battle tonight is nearing its end, I won't linger here any longer."
Luo Wusheng took a few steps back and bowed. "If Miss Kirin has any future matters, feel free to visit the Demon Artifact Pavilion."
With that, his figure gradually faded away.
He planned to use the new ability of his mind reading eyeball to gather intelligence in secrecy and see if he could discover anything.
Miss Kirin, still wearing her aloof demeanor, returned the gesture and intended to bring the meatball in her hand to the higher-ups of the Immortal Nation.
But just as she was planning her next steps and about to teleport away, her gaze was inexplicably drawn to an empty space, as if something had caught her attention. She looked in a certain direction.
In that empty space, the Holy Saint of the Demon Sect, who had just bid farewell, momentarily lost his stealth due to an intense emotional fluctuation, revealing his figure.
However, in the next moment, he disappeared into stealth again.
In that brief moment, Miss Kirin couldn't even see his expression clearly.
But this time, she could feel his presence swiftly receding through her spiritual awareness.
Then—
Boom!
Just as the girl was pondering whether something had happened to Luo Wusheng, a deafening roar suddenly resounded in the distant direction.
Miss Kirin's pupils contracted beneath her mask.
'That direction is...'
...
At this moment, Luo Wusheng, concealed in his stealth mode, was swiftly traversing through the Royal City.
His face wore a grim expression.
After bidding farewell to Miss Kirin earlier, he finally remembered what he had overlooked.
But it wasn't something he realized on his own.
'Damn it, does that guy need to make his presence known every once in a while when he's not in front of me? It's making me uneasy all over!'
Luo Wusheng felt his scalp tingling.
After entering stealth, he quickly found a secluded corner nearby and used the Shadow Peeping Technique.
The first target he locked onto was the bird that had fallen unconscious on the battlefield earlier.
However, when he saw the surrounding scenery, he was stunned.
Where was the bird? Was it still on the battlefield? It had clearly transformed into a deep and dense forest!
Could it be that during the battle of Nascent Soul expert, the bird suddenly regained consciousness and flew away from the battlefield? It even flew out of the Royal City?
Could an ordinary bird who had just withstand the presence of multiple Nascent Soul experts do such a thing?
In his moment of confusion, he instinctively prepared to switch to the next shadow to observe.
After all, he wanted to see the situation on the battlefield first.
But just as he was about to activate it, he noticed the bird's body floating up.
Without flapping its wings or struggling, it simply floated up and landed in a pair of rough palms.
Following the palms, Luo Wusheng saw a familiar figure.
It's the bald coachman in coarse hemp clothes.
Damn it!
Seeing the eerie smile on the coachman's face, Luo Wusheng's intense emotional fluctuation caused his stealth state to fail.
Fortunately, he is able to quickly regain his composure, and resumes his stealth. Otherwise, the abnormality on his face due to using this particular ability would have been exposed.
Shortly after, he saw the bald coachman gently tossing the bird from his hand.
The bird flapped its wings and flew up.
As the bird moved, the scenes perceived by Luo Wusheng's spiritual awareness through its shadow gradually changed.
The dense forest gradually came to an end.
In its place was a tranquil lake.
Within the lake, there was a pavilion with a monument inside, which bore only two characters.
'Ascending Immortality...'
Luo Wusheng's roared inside his mind.
He finally remembered what he had overlooked.
In the original story, the author briefly mentioned another significant event that happened around the same time as the Netherkin Extermination Operation, which was later revealed to Lu Yuliu by the Empress after having an orgy with the Empress Taoist Alter Ego.
'...The battle that happened in the Ascending Immortality Lake, this is the event that led to the Netherqueen breaking free from her restraint!'
'Because I informed the Immortal Nation in advance about the Netherkin Nation's plan, the Netherkin Extermination Operation, which should have taken place at least half a month later, was moved up—- Does this mean the operation that would make the Netherqueen free will also be moved up?'
No— After all, it's still early, so it's not necessarily...
Luo Wusheng wanted to view this matter optimistically and positively, but the scene perceived through the bird's shadow shattered his illusions.
In just an instant, a Tribulation Crossing gigantic Ape Netherkin appeared out of thin air and landed outside the Ascending Immortality Lake.
At that moment, the earth shook, and a deafening roar reached the Royal City.
