Back then, in his haste to save lives, Yang Xiao did not manage to retrieve the magic artifacts from Qiu Huai De’s body in ti. Those artifacts were left in the corresponding Mirror World, and he wasn’t sure whether they had gone out of control.
Using the Soul-Capturing Mirror, Yang Xiao returned to the Mirror World; fortunately, everything was as usual.
This ti, not pressed for ti, Yang Xiao first recovered three artifacts belonging to Qiu Huai De: the Space Bone Fan, an Ancient Sword imbued with Thunder Power, and a protective half-piece of Chain Armor.
Then, he had the Mirror Ghost drag an empty box from the secret chamber, pieced together the two severed parts of Qiu Huai De’s corpse, and tossed them in the box.
The Mirror World has one great advantage: here, ti seems to lose its significance, even though it’s been days since Qiu Huai De’s death, his corpse remains fresh.
This is very important for Yang Xiao - the corpse of a fresh Apostle is far more valuable than a rotten body, and the selling price is higher too.
Counting Qiu Huai De, Yang Xiao now has three quite decent corpses in his possession.
Qiu Huai De, the Bone Burning Taoist of the ten guardians of the Withered Bone Pavilion, all are You Level Middle-grade corpses. Previously, the Elder Pu of Yiling Academy he caught was much poorer, only at the Half-step Ghost Level.
Elder Pu also died, but it was unrelated to Yang Xiao. That man’s psychological resilience was too weak; he was literally scared to death by Sui Chengguo’s tactics, truly a waste.
Because of this incident, Yang Xiao also criticized Sui Chengguo briefly, since that guy still had so value, and Sui Chengguo admitted his mistake, promising to be mindful next ti.
Yang Xiao secretly decided in his heart that when he captures that punk Sheng Youjun next ti, he must be present during Sui Chengguo’s interrogation, otherwise if he’s questioned to death, it’d be another waste, and he’d be left only to sell the corpse.
Returning to Fu Qingzhu’s office, upon seeing the Bone Fan, Fu Qingzhu’s eyes lit up. For him, it was not just a magic artifact but a step toward realizing his future dreams.
To minimize risk, Yang Xiao brought Fu Qingzhu into his own Mirror World, and here, Fu Qingzhu channeled his spiritual power and soon mastered the Bone Fan.
Although Fu Qingzhu’s talent couldn’t compare with Yang Xiao or Qu Muzhi and others, it wasn’t too shabby. Under Yang Xiao’s guidance, he quickly adapted to the Bone Fan.
"What a wonderful treasure!" Joy surged in Fu Qingzhu’s heart, his eyes filled with fervor.
Having settled matters here, Yang Xiao left; he needed to return to the Patrol Defense Office to find Nalan Shuo.
Shortly after Yang Xiao left, Fu Qingzhu summoned his subordinates. A middle-aged man wearing sunglasses quickly walked into Fu Qingzhu’s office, naturally leaning forward, and asked in a low voice, "President, you called for ."
"Where are those traitors held?" Facing the Union’s man, Fu Qingzhu’s expression was serious, exuding an air of authority.
"In Prison No. 5, I’ve assigned a captain to guard them specifically, rest assured." The middle-aged man answered.
"Pick the two strongest from inside, and at deep night, knock them out and quietly bring them over, without letting anyone know."
"Understood." Without any redundant words, the middle-aged man accepted the order and left.
After the middle-aged man left, the solitary Fu Qingzhu took out the Bone Fan, slowly caressing it with his palm, his eyes sharp as mories filled his mind of Qiu Huai De once using this Bone Fan to imprison dozens of skilled individuals and gaining imnse power.
"Chairman Qiu, thank you so much..."
...
Returning to the Patrol Defense Office, Yang Xiao first went to his office from when he was a team captain. Beibei, Da Xiong, Yu Shu, and Xi nxiu were all there; the group naturally indulged in a round of chit-chat, having been out of touch for so long.
Even more to Yang Xiao’s surprise, Beibei’s spiritual power level had already broken through to the Grudge Level, becoming a genuine Fierce Level Apostle.
Through the introduction, Yang Xiao recalled that, before his imminent departure to Myanmar and Thailand, Beibei had received a Ghost Script, clearly having gained quite a few benefits from it.
Speaking of which, Beibei showed a sly smile, mysteriously telling Yang Xiao that she had already mastered a second magic artifact.
"What good thing is it?" Yang Xiao blinked, very curious.
Beibei cautiously extracted an earring from her clothing pocket, its craftsmanship rustic and grand, with a polished Bixi dangling below.
"I call it the Thousand-mile Eye." Beibei grinned, "It’s really powerful."
Hearing this, Yang Xiao was intrigued. "Just by wearing this earring, can you see beyond your extre sight limits, a divine artifact for peeping?"
He had seen similar treasures before, during the "Thousand Prison Country" incident, on a very young female apostle.
"No, just by wearing this earring, you can eavesdrop on voices within a certain range." Beibei explained while wearing the earring.
Yang Xiao: "??? Then why call it Thousand-mile Eye, isn’t it Sharp-Hearing Ear?"
"Tch!" Unhappy, Beibei rolled her eyes dramatically, grumbling, "Mind your own business; it’s for confusing the enemy."
"Alright, alright, as long as you’re happy." Yang Xiao was always tolerant of this bunch.
"How far can this Shar... Thousand-mile Eye hear? Are there any limitations?" Yang Xiao asked.
"With my current ability, I can only hear within approximately 200 ters radius; I need to see the person’s photo and have that person in mind."
Facing Yang Xiao and the other two teammates, Beibei had no reason to hide. "If during eavesdropping soone is talking to him or there’s any sound around him, I can hear it too, and share with the person standing beside ."
"Sounds quite useful." Yang Xiao nodded. This ability is very handy for reconnaissance, not only combat-type magic artifacts count as good treasures.
Moreover, a 200 ters range is Beibei’s limit, far from the artifact’s limit. If he were to use it, he estimated at least 1000 ters at the very least.
