Chapter 6021 There is a Killer
Meanwhile, in Yu Ranran’s elegant pavilion.
David stood by the window, his gaze seemingly piercing through the layers of the building, fixed on the divine messenger surrounded by his admirers.
Yu Ranran was temporarily lured into the quiet room next door by him under the pretext of researching a meditation array that required absolute silence.
As David observed, the guards outside the attic were much looser than they had been two days earlier, and the intervals between their patrols had become longer.
Especially some of the remote trails leading to the treasury area, which were almost empty at this time.
“A messenger from the Divine Race… a sixth-rank Immortal…”
David muttered to himself, a cold glint appearing in his eyes.
This was an opportunity—a chance to connect with the gods, gather information, and perhaps even discover the whereabouts of the Soul Refining Crystal!
The old fox Yu Wuji suddenly loosened his guard, revealing his true intentions: he wanted to use others to do his dirty work or explore possibilities.
Since that’s how it is, then let it be!
David’s figure flashed, as if merging with the shadows, and he left Xiuge without a word.
He did not rush straight into the treasure room, but like the most patient hunter, he followed a deliberately loose path, using his understanding of the Jade Immortal Palace’s formations and the concealment properties of chaotic power to avoid all possible eyes and ears, and quietly continued his journey.
The treasury room is a tightly guarded and very important location.
But at this time, because of the arrival of the divine messenger, most of the attention was focused on the area at the main entrance of the warehouse where the offerings were exchanged.
David appeared like a ghost in a secluded corner behind the treasure room.
There is a small hidden door here, which is used for emergency evacuation or transport of special equipment, and the door is heavily guarded.
However, all this is no obstacle for David, who possesses some of Fei Qing’s memories and the power of chaos.
His fingertips flickered with a chaotic gray light, like the most skilled key, gently piercing the forbidden knot, silently and temporarily “paralyzing” and “assimilating” it.
The small door opened slightly quietly.
The warehouse was brightly lit.
Yu Wuji personally accompanied Envoy Yun Ting to count the piles of glowing spiritual crystals, medicinal herbs, ores, and other offerings.
Several Protoss guards scattered to maintain vigilance.
David seemed to blend into the boundary between light and dark, his aura completely hidden, and his gaze quickly swept across the warehouse.
Its purpose is not this ordinary offering, but rather… the storage place for the Soul Purification Crystal!
According to Fei Qing’s memories and the information he had obtained from Yu Ranran over the past few days, the Soul Refining Crystal should have been stored in the deepest part of the treasury, in the Xuanbing Room, which was personally guarded by Yu Wuji!
Like a slippery fish, he moved through the shadows of the large shelves and stacks of inventory, avoiding the occasional passing warehouse clerk, and crept towards the direction he remembered.
Deep inside the warehouse, the temperature dropped significantly.
A heavy, dark iron gate, carved with ice runes, appeared before them, its surface shimmering in the light and emitting a cold aura.
This is the Xuanbing Room!
Just as David was about to break down the door, he suddenly heard footsteps and soft voices behind him!
It was Yu Wuji and Yun Ting, the envoys who had just completed the handover of power, who were walking in this direction!
It seemed like Yu Wuji was showing off the wealth of the treasury to the envoy, or… did he deliberately direct the envoy here?
David’s heart pounded, and he immediately hid behind a tall pile of ice-element ores, completely concealing his aura.
“Please take a look, Your Majesty, this is the Xuanbing Room where some special supplies are stored.”
Yu Wuji’s voice rang out, carrying a hint of almost imperceptible tension.
Envoy Yun Ting walked to the door of the Xuanbing Chamber, felt the fluctuations in the restrictions on the door, and nodded: “The protection is acceptable. Master Yu, are those unfinished Soul Crystals gathered here?”
“Appropriate.”
Yu Wuji replied, “It will take a few more days before it can be released.”
Yun Ting’s envoy stared at the door of the Xuanbing Chamber, his eyes gleaming, and suddenly said, “Open it. I want to see the progress with my own eyes.”
Yu Wuji’s expression changed slightly: “Messenger, the condensation process must not be interrupted, just in case…”
“I know what I’m doing.”
Envoy Yun Ting’s tone was undoubtedly filled with the arrogance typical of the gods, “Or perhaps Lord Yu has something… that is not appropriate for this envoy to see?”
The atmosphere suddenly became tense.
David, who was hiding in the shadows, sneered inwardly.
Yu Wuji, that old fox, was indeed planning something sinister. He had deliberately led the envoy to the Soul Refining Crystal storage location, hoping to use the envoy’s hand, or perhaps his own, who might be hiding nearby, to disrupt the situation!
A look of struggle crossed Yu Wuji’s face, but he finally sighed, as if giving in: “Since the envoy insists… fine.”
He stepped forward, formed a hand seal, and released several beams of spiritual light that landed on the door of the Xuanbing Room.
The runes on the gate lit up one by one, the cold air became more and more intense, and the gate let out a deep rumbling sound as it slowly opened inwards.
A more subtle and ominous aura, mixed with a faint and soul-disturbing wave of hatred, emanated from within the door.
A glimmer of satisfaction flashed in Yun Ting’s eyes, and he stepped inside.
Just as he was about to step into the Xuanbing Room…
There was a sudden change!
A hazy, gray sword light suddenly appeared from the shadow of a pile of ice attribute ore beside them without warning!
Its speed was so high that it seemed to penetrate the boundaries of space, heading straight for Yun Ting’s vital point behind him! Wherever the sword light passed, even the air itself emitted a faint hissing sound as it was eroded and annihilated!
This is the blow David has been waiting for!
The target was not Yu Wuji, but this divine envoy!
Envoy Yun Ting truly lives up to his reputation as a Tier Six God; his reaction time is incredibly fast!
As the sword light struck his body, a dazzling silver divine light suddenly burst out from his body, the fitting inner armor automatically appeared, and at the same time, his body was forcibly twisted to the side!
Hiss!
The hazy sword light pierced through the silver divine light, leaving a deep mark on the high-grade inner armor, almost piercing through it!
The remaining chaotic power seeped into his body, causing Envoy Yun Ting to groan and his face to instantly turn pale!
“How dare you!”
Envoy Yun Ting was shocked and furious. He turned around and shouted, and at the same time, a flash of light appeared in his hand. A long sword, shining with bright silver light and shrouded in lightning, was already in his hand. He slashed ferociously in the direction the sword light had come from!
However, David quickly retreated after his attack, without further provocation.
The figure disappeared into the shadows once again like a ghost, and darted away towards the outside of the warehouse!
The goal has been achieved: attack the envoy, create chaos, and test the reactions of the envoy and Yu Wuji!
“Stop him!”
Envoy Yun Ting was furious because someone actually attacked him in the warehouse of the Jade God Palace!
This is really embarrassing!
He moved as fast as lightning, chasing after him, his thunderous sword light cutting through the air!
