"Little Tutu, what's wrong? What are you thinking about so intently?"

Old Fang waved his hand in front of him.

Xuan Tu came to his senses. "I know where the Heavenly Demon Bone is. What did the Heavenly Book ask you for?"

Old Fang: "Hey, isn't it strange? That day, the book actually asked me to give it the bottle of wine you gave me earlier."

"It's a book, you can't drink alcohol with it, what's the point of having it? I haven't had enough to drink yet."

The last sentence can no longer be called a hint, but an explicit statement.

Xuan Tu tossed him another bottle of wine.

Old Fang accepted it with a big smile.

"Since I'm already here, I'll go look around. I'll message you later and you can come pick me up."

Xuan Tu didn't speak, but just nodded at him.

Continue to arrest people to ask questions to the Heavenly Book on his behalf.

"My lord, I've found out. The Heavenly Book says that the Sands of Time are in Bright City, with a man named Shui Duoduo."

A bar near the Heavenly Book Building.

A Star Vortex Realm (Tier 5) ability user replied to Xuan Tu.

Xuan Tu handed over a spatial storage bag.

There are 100,000 Xuanjing coins inside, which is the reward for this person.

"Thank you, sir, thank you..."

Xuan Tu erased this person's memory of asking about the Heavenly Book and prepared to capture the next person to ask.

At this moment, the mental imprint in my mind was activated.

The leader, Styx, is summoning him.

Xuan Tu's figure disappeared from the spot and arrived at a residence inside the city.

After setting up a spatial domain around the house, his spiritual body entered the main hall.

But they discovered that Styx wasn't alone inside; Oriole was also there.

As soon as the sparrow saw him, it snorted and turned its head away, looking like it didn't like him.

Xuan Tu remained unmoved and gave a faint greeting to Minghe.

"A-Tu, I heard from A-Que that you bullied her?"

Styx asked with a smile, without any intention of questioning.

Xuan Tu: "She came to my territory to kill my people, I was just teaching her a lesson."

Styx laughed and gave him a mocking once-over.

"Your woman? When did you get a woman? You didn't even tell me, that's so unfair of you."

Xuan Tu: "Don't you know now?"

He didn't want to talk much about himself and Xin Sui, so he changed the subject: "What do you want to see me about?"

Styx stopped laughing and said seriously, "The Oriole has found 'it's' whereabouts; it's in your City of Light."

Huang Que seized the opportunity to mock, "I think you should let me take over as the deputy leader. The item is right on your territory, but you couldn't find it. I, the head of the intelligence association, have to step in."

Xuan Tu ignored her question and asked, "Where?"

Huang Que stamped her foot in anger and pointed at Xuan Tu, complaining to the Styx River.

"Look at him! Chief, you'd better teach him a lesson for me, or I won't tell you where 'it' is!"

Styx shrugged. "I can't beat him, how can I teach him a lesson for you?"

The sparrow pretended to punch him, saying, "And you call yourself a leader!"

Styx slid to the side, dodging her punch.

"Alright, alright, stop fooling around, we need to get down to business."

"Look, Atu is getting impatient. If you don't speak up, he'll leave. How will you handle that by yourself?"

Huang Que reluctantly stopped, temporarily suppressing his dissatisfaction with Xuan Tu.

"It's on a kid named Shui Duoduo. Shui Duoduo is only at the Great Star Realm and not very strong, but since he has it, his strength can't be determined by his realm."

"Just in case, you and I will work together to subdue him and get it."

Xuan Tu frowned upon hearing the name "Shui Duoduo".

It's him again...

But that's fine, it's good to get both things done at the same time.

*

Inside the room.

Shui Duoduo sat cross-legged on the mat.

The fist-sized Six Paths Divine Box floated in front of him with one corner pointing downwards, constantly spinning.

After catching Huang Que a few days ago, he did not kill her directly.

Instead, she sent the hourglass into the No. 5 door that was imprisoning her, letting the hourglass devour her time.

As one of the seven high priests of the Earth's core, Huang Que has a long lifespan, which should allow him to extract a considerable amount of the Sands of Time from the hourglass.

Slow and steady wins the race.

Previously, in order to kill Crimson Frost as soon as possible, he had to speed up the extraction process of the hourglass so that he could rescue his sister quickly.

But Huang Que has already been imprisoned in the Six Paths Divine Box by him, and unless she can break the box, she will not be able to get out.

If that's the case, there's no need to rush things.

Take your time; the extracted sands of time will be finer and of higher quality.

Three days have passed, and it's finally coming to an end.

However, at the very end, Shui Duoduo discovered that Huang Que, who should have been devoured by time and died of old age, had actually turned into a tiny doll the size of a palm!

His expression changed.

The oriole he caught turned out to be just a substitute!

Rather than a true oriole.

not good!

Shui Duoduo realized something and immediately got up to find her sister and take her away.

However, at that moment, two figures appeared out of nowhere in the room.

Yellow bird!

And... the Mysterious Path!

The moment Shui Duoduo saw Xuan Tu, alarm bells rang in her heart.

Not to mention the current him, even the him before his rebirth, was no match for Xuan Tu!

run!

Shui Duoduo had absolutely no intention of confronting him head-on.

He immediately threw away the hourglass that he had just finished eating.

—Although the “Yellow Bird” he had captured earlier was a puppet stand-in, the time on it was real.

So the hourglass had a full meal.

The hourglass and the water seemed to understand each other perfectly, and immediately created a realm where time slowed down.
