Nightmare Apostle

Chapter 1351: Chapter 867: Annihilation of a Family

In that ghost dream, Yang Xiao had witnessed the Opera Robe Ghost being besieged and killed by a group of experts in front of the Heavenly Water Pavilion. It was Hanjiang Jun’s sudden betrayal and backstab that led to the demise of the Opera Robe Ghost.

The magic artifact in Hanjiang Jun’s hand was seen quite clearly by Yang Xiao, it was a brass handle, but to be precise, it was actually a steelyard. It even had what looked like scales engraved on it.

At this moment, Yang Xiao could hardly contain his excitement inside. After searching for so long, he finally found it!

Sure enough, it was in this guy’s hands. He actually stole my Ghost Lantern handle. Damn it!

This item is extremely important to Yang Xiao. With it, he can piece together the Ghost Lantern completely. Once his spiritual power increases in the future, he’ll have the means to contend with the Opera Robe Ghost!

A true man should have no unfulfilled ambitions under the heaven! He has endured indignities and hidden for so long, at last, he sees a hope to turn the tables.

And conveniently, the item is in the hands of the Master of Withered Bone Pavilion, it’s simply a godsend opportunity.

Bear in mind, the other two suspects are the Great Joyful Red Lotus Buddha and a vice president of the Union Headquarters, neither of whom he can afford to provoke.

Although the Master of the Withered Bone Pavilion is also not someone he can handle right now, the fact that this person is an Evil Cultivator naturally places Yang Xiao, as a Second-level Deputy Director of the Patrol Defense Office, in a moral high ground with no worries.

It can be said that as long as he locks down this person’s location, Yang Xiao can report upwards, leveraging the Patrol Defense Office’s status to summon a first-level expert from headquarters to kill the Master of Withered Bone Pavilion, and he would find an opportunity to loot.

But as the Bone Burning Taoist said, the Master of the Withered Bone Pavilion’s movements are mysterious. To find him, one must first confirm the location of the Purgatory.

So for Yang Xiao, what he needs to do now is to quickly capture the two other protectors of the Withered Bone Pavilion, the Great Protector and the Fifth Guardian, and get the other two maps and corresponding numbers from them.

Regarding the so-called numbers, Yang Xiao has a guess. They are either related to the method of opening a secret realm or the coordinates of a crucial point.

After fiercely questioning the other party, until there was nothing more useful to extract, Yang Xiao, upon the Bone Burning Taoist’s bitter plea, kindly had the Mirror Ghost finish him off. frёewebηovel.cѳm

He had the Mirror Ghost temporarily store the body in an unused box; a Ghost Level mid-upper Angel Envoy’s body will surely come in handy in the future.

After handling the body, Yang Xiao began calculating the spoils of this operation. Overall, it was quite bountiful. The Bone Burning Taoist had two magic artifacts on him, a thigh bone, and a prosthetic leg connected to a rotten foot. Both are of decent quality, especially the latter item. If it were used by a typical Angel Envoy, it might have caused an unexpected turnaround.

In comparison, the two magic artifacts in Song Ziming’s hand were more ordinary, but Yang Xiao doesn’t blame him; having something is better than nothing.

Besides that, there were a large number of low-level magical artifacts. Yang Xiao assigned these to subordinates for handling. By Tong Han’s training, no one dares to pocket the association’s property now.

Leaving the Mirror World, Yang Xiao sent a message to Xi Menxiu in charge of contact, informing him that he had eradicated a group of Evil Cultivators in Qinghe Town and shared his plan.

After hearing the plan, Xi Menxiu praised it highly. On one hand, it gave honor to their Rongcheng Patrol Division, and on the other hand, it smeared dirt on Marquis Zhengdong and An Nan Marquis, achieving a double-win.

Xi Menxiu promised to relay the plan to Director Nalan immediately and told Yang Xiao to await good news.

After putting down the phone, a trace of caution appeared in Yang Xiao’s expression. Ming Yue’s words uncontrollably surfaced in his mind. Back near the Rongcheng Union Headquarters, someone blocked Marquis Zhengdong for him.

That person was shrouded entirely in a black cloak, making their face indiscernible, with golden dragon scales faintly visible on their body.

Combining with the sturdy woman by their side, Yang Xiao had at least 70% certainty to confirm that person was his superior, Nalan Shuo.

But up to now, Nalan Shuo hasn’t actively contacted him, seemingly unwilling to tell him this fact.

Nalan Shuo is hiding secrets from him; what puzzles Yang Xiao is that he clearly used the Human Bone Staff to probe Nalan Shuo from a short distance long ago, but the opponent’s spiritual power was only close to Fierce Grade level.

With such a level, not to mention confronting Marquis Zhengdong, even encountering Qu Muzhi is far inferior.

Yang Xiao is not worried that Nalan Shuo would harm him; he’s only worried that Nalan Shuo might face troubles he can’t solve without telling him.

You must know, Yang Xiao is not the same as before. Besides the ties within the Patrol Defense Office, he is now quite popular outside as well, with friends such as the Second Demon Taoist in Xiang Ma Town, the Esoteric Cannibal Buddha, Elder Sheng Dean of Yiling Academy, the Old Clan Leader Yang Qianhe of Ru Lin Academy. These are all friends of Yang Xiao.

Let’s wait and see for some time now. When returning to Rongcheng, Yang Xiao plans to find an opportunity to test Director Nalan.

After resolving the Bone Burning Taoist’s affair, for the next few days, Yang Xiao settled down in Xiang Ma Town. Daoist Qingfeng visited him, bringing several healing elixirs.

During the battle with the Bone Burning Taoist, Yang Xiao was also injured, and moreover, the use of magic artifacts also brought backlash. freeweɓnovēl.coɱ

Especially the healing properties of the pitch-black human leather, Yang Xiao now feels a somewhat dry roughness in his palm, seems this item must be used cautiously in the future.

His good brother Fu Qingzhu also sent a message. With the help of experts sent by Tonghan Sect, he has completely controlled the situation.
