"This is an anti-human Heterodox Sect that specifically targets human geniuses. Its power is comparable to the Pantheon Sect. It seems this ti, they were after you."
Instructor Wang looked at Chen Yu, his expression grave.
Chen Yu: "..."
’A Heterodox Sect, and they’re after ...’
Looking at the bodies on the ground, Chen Yu was silent for a mont.
Although he knew nothing about the Divine Authority Council, he was familiar with Heterodox Sects.
For example, the Pantheon Sect!
That was one of the most infamous Heterodox Sects.
They had deep ties to the Alien Races.
Their power was unimaginably vast.
The fact that this Divine Authority Council could be compared to the Pantheon Sect was enough to prove how terrifying it was.
’They found so quickly after my ability test. Could it be that the Divine Authority Council has influence within the rcenary Association?’
’Or maybe... ng Li and the others?’
’No, that doesn’t seem right. ng Li and her group left before the test.’
’The ability to track here so accurately makes it more likely that the leak ca from the rcenary Association.’
’After all, the rcenary Association is an organization with a very diverse and complex mbership.’
’Captain Xu reported it, so maybe the higher-ups in the rcenary Association found out. It’s not impossible that so of the top brass are from the Divine Authority Council.’
Of course, this was all just his speculation.
"It seems this place is no longer safe." Instructor Wang stood up, his gaze turning to the night sky.
"Are we moving out now?" Chen Yu asked, looking at him.
Instructor Wang pondered for a mont before saying, "Let’s head back to the villa first. I need to report our new route."
Chen Yu nodded and, without asking any more questions, turned and walked toward the villa.
Instructor Wang’s gaze fell upon the two ard young n. "Get rid of the bodies first."
"Yes, sir."
The two nodded and imdiately got to work. Instructor Wang glanced at the night sky before turning and following them into the villa.
...
On the edge of a cliff in the wilderness outside Lin City’s safe zone, a man in a black cloak and hood stood against the cold wind, quietly gazing at the lit-up city.
A mont later, another man in black appeared from a short distance away, quickly arriving before the hooded man.
"My Lord, the plan has failed."
The man in black stood before the hooded man with his head lowered, like a schoolboy admitting his mistakes.
"What about Chen Yu?"
the hooded man asked without turning his head.
The man in black replied, "They never even fought. They were all captured by Chen Yu. I only saw him use so sort of ice-based ability."
The hooded man slowly turned around and looked at the man in black. "So you’re saying you didn’t manage to scout out his other abilities?"
Cold sweat beaded on the man’s forehead as he imdiately dropped to one knee. "I apologize, my Lord. It is my fault. I..."
"Do I look like I want your apology?" the hooded man cut him off before he could finish.
BANG! BANG! BANG!
The man in black imdiately kowtowed, smashing his head against the ground. Gravel flew, and blood trickled from his forehead.
"Enough. Get up," the hooded man said faintly.
The man in black scrambled to his feet, bowing respectfully. "Thank you for your rcy, my Lord. This subordinate will gather more n at once. I will definitely bring this Chen Yu before you."
"There’s no need," the hooded man said flatly.
The man in black froze, looking up at the hooded man in surprise.
"My Lord, are you going to act personally?"
The hooded man looked at him, his gaze calm. "Don’t ask questions you shouldn’t be asking."
The man in black tensed and quickly lowered his head. "I’m sorry, my Lord. This subordinate spoke out of turn."
"Go to Jingzhou and wait," the hooded man said coolly.
"Yes!"
The man in black nodded, and with a flicker, his figure vanished into the night.
Watching the man leave, the hooded man’s expression remained indifferent as he turned his gaze back to Lin City.
He watched quietly, as motionless as a statue.
After a while, a graceful figure erged from the darkness and appeared before him.
The cold moonlight illuminated a captivating face.
She was a woman of exquisite features and a stunning figure.
Her eyes seed as if they could steal one’s very soul.
"Boss, aren’t you cold, standing out here in the middle of the night?" The woman’s voice was lodious and pleasant to the ear.
The hooded man looked at the woman before him. "It’s been a while. You’re getting more and more insolent."
Hearing this, the woman looked completely unconcerned. "Cut the crap. You’re just the boss in na. I take my orders from the Chairman."
"What? You want my position?" the hooded man asked.
The woman pouted. "I wouldn’t want it. It’s a killer job. Life is much more comfortable at the Superpower Academy."
"Enough. I called you here for serious business. This matter is of great importance, and you must complete this mission."
the hooded man said with a solemn expression.
The woman blinked, looking at the hooded man, and held out her hand. "And the benefits? You have to give a down paynt."
The hooded man: "..."
"I don’t have it with right now. I’ll give it to you later."
"Bullshit! This is the third ti. You’re not giving any reward? You expect to work for free? I’m not doing it!"
With that, the woman turned to leave.
"This is the Chairman’s will," the hooded man said.
Hearing this, the woman stopped and looked back at him. "You’re not just using the Chairman’s na to get to work for free, are you?"
"..."
The hooded man’s expression was grave. "This matter is extrely important. It concerns the future of the Divine Authority Council."
"Tch, you’re exaggerating again," the woman said with a look of disdain.
The hooded man said, "An S-rank Awakened with triple abilities. Tell , does that not concern our Divine Authority Council?"
At these words, the woman’s expression turned serious.
"An S-rank Awakened with triple abilities?"
The woman stared at the hooded man in disbelief.
"Mm," the hooded man nodded. "We only learned about this recently. He’s a newcor. And he’s about to join the Jingzhou Superpower Academy."
The woman’s face changed. "Do you have any idea how much attention an S-rank Ability User draws? Are you sending to my death?"
"I’m not asking you to kill him," the hooded man said flatly.
Hearing this, the woman’s expression softened slightly.
"Then what do you want to do?"
"Get close to him, win his favor, and do your best to convert him. Besides, you have a major advantage."
the hooded man said.
The woman subconsciously glanced down at herself.
The hooded man said, "I’m not talking about your body. I’m talking about your identity."
Woman: "?"
"My identity?" she asked, looking at him in astonishnt.
"This newcor is also from Qing City."
The woman frowned.
As if by magic, the hooded man produced a file folder and handed it to her. "Here is the file. You’ll understand once you read it."
The woman opened the folder, took out the docunts inside, and scanned them quickly. After a long mont, she looked up at the hooded man.
"Do you understand now?" the hooded man asked coolly.
The woman casually shredded the file in her hands and nodded lightly.
The hooded man said, "Rember your mission. If you can complete it this ti, you can finally relax for good."
"You’ve said that many tis before," the woman said with a pout.
"The Chairman said this himself. Once it’s done, you may go to the Azure Sky World."
"Really?"
The woman’s eyes lit up.
The hooded man nodded. "Of course. You can verify it with the Chairman."
The woman nodded. "Fine. I’ll trust you one more ti."
"Rember, get close to him, win his favor. If the opportunity arises, you can even beco his woman. That would increase your chances, but only as a last resort."
"Do I look like so flighty, romantic woman to you?" the woman glared, shooting daggers at the hooded man.
"This is for you." The hooded man took out a small vial and handed it to her.
The woman took the small vial, opened it, and a look of delight appeared on her face as she saw the purple liquid inside.
"Didn’t you say you didn’t have anything with you?"
"This is my own. You can use it first, but you’ll have to pay back later," the hooded man said faintly.
"Stingy," the woman muttered, pouting as she put the vial away.
The hooded man gave her a deep look. "I will provide you with so support. When the ti cos, you can naturally close the distance between you. As for how far you take it, that’s up to you to decide."
"Support?"
The woman looked at the hooded man.
The hooded man: "I will naturally inform you when the ti cos."
After speaking, the hooded man flickered and his figure vanished into the night.
The woman stood on the cliff’s edge, pondering for a mont, before her figure also lted into the darkness.
