Chapter 32 Chapter 32

The crow curtain dropped by Xuanyin covered the entire exhibition hall. Except for Cheng Shuhui and others who were released by her, everyone else was still covered in it.

These people, like the nightmare beasts, had lost their way. They carefully avoided the nightmare beasts that were running around like headless flies while looking for an exit.

But the strange thing is that although the exhibition hall is very large, it is not without boundaries. However, they groped towards the edge in their memory in the darkness for a long time, but could not touch the edge at all.

It felt like being thrown into a foggy illusion, and even if you walked in a straight line, you couldn't get out.

If they knew about the concept of ghost wall, this word would definitely come to their mind at this moment.

Gu Yu stood in the darkness, and even with his ability, he couldn't tell the direction.

Prince Jin Keqi, also known as Jin Qi, asked him, "How is it?"

Gu Yu shook his head. "I can't find the exit at all, but I sense an extremely powerful divine power. It's as if this place is a realm supported by divine power."

Jin Keqi gasped. "So powerful? I just saw a woman falling from the sky. So this was caused by her divine robe? This Federation truly has hidden dragons and crouching tigers, and they're all female dragons! Tell me, is this the Federation testing us, or is it a third party causing trouble?"

"It doesn't look like the Federation is prepared." Gu Yu listened to the shouts of the Federation members nearby. "Those Federation leaders are also trapped here."

"In other words, they let the enemy touch the heart center of their own country, and succeeded? Ha! This really opened my eyes!" Jin Keqi said sarcastically.

At this moment, something came flying towards them and Gu Yuyi reached out to grab it.

It was an egg, ice-cold, with a strong fluctuation of life inside.

Jin Keqi came over to take a look: "What is it?"

Suddenly, all the nightmare beasts around froze, turned their heads to look over one by one, and the surroundings fell into absolute silence.

Jin Keqi felt countless gazes staring at him in the darkness, and even felt a little creepy.

His expression grew serious, and he silently grasped the buckle of his divine robe: "That's not right, Lao Gu, drop what you have in your hand."

Gu Yuye took out the divine clothing buckle and said, "It's too late."

Just as he finished speaking, a tentacle slammed down, and all the nightmare beasts roared, growled, and squeaked as they pounced on him.

Looking from the outside, several rays of divine light fell vertically, and the fluctuations of divine power were so strong that they could almost make people around them faint.

Then, from behind the crow curtain, there was a sound of fierce fighting.

Xuanyin watched all this from above and nodded, saying that this was what made it lively.

These so-called strong men should have taken action long ago. They are obviously very capable and can do more with just a flick of their fingers than eight or ten people fighting each other to the death. But why do they just stand there and watch the fun?

Suddenly, she seemed to realize something and waved her hand. A crow flew to the ground, picked up something and handed it to Xuanyin.

It was a very delicate little box. She smelled it and it indeed had that strange bloody smell, but there was no way to open the box from the outside.

The system asked: "Is there something wrong with this thing? Is there also some kind of wild beast egg inside?"

"No, I just care more about the taste."

The system reminded: "The rescue team is here."

Xuanyin put away the small box and waved her hand. The entire crow curtain began to dissipate little by little, turning into black divine power, which gathered towards her like a whirlwind and enveloped her figure.

Cheng Shuhui and others were staring at this scene closely below, wanting to wait for the divine power to dissipate to see her appearance clearly, but after the divine power dissipated, the person disappeared!

Looking at the center of the exhibition hall, the Imperials were fighting fiercely with the giant octopus nightmare beast. Several of them were fighting against one tentacle, and they were almost bleeding from their heads. The Federals, on the other hand, were squatting in groups with their heads in their hands, and the nightmare beasts basically did not attack them.

When the federal troops who rushed in to rescue saw this scene, the corners of their mouths couldn't help but twitch twice.

Shame on you! So fucking shameful!

…

Xuanyin left the exhibition hall along the underground passage and quickly took a magic pill, which was like a shot of cardiotonic, but her hands and feet were still shaking and weak.

The system flew beside her worriedly: "Are you okay? I let you act so cool just now and kept you suspended in the air. Now you know the pain."

Xuanyin said, "I need a place to stay. The Saltwater Goddess is the same as the Stone Goddess. After being possessed by the gods, I will become my own appearance. If I get too close, Cheng Shuhui will see through me.

"But my physical condition has improved a lot now, so it's not a big problem. However, the power of this Saltwater Goddess is greater than I imagined. It turns out that it can not only trap nightmare beasts, but also make them lose their direction and goals, which is equivalent to a period of confusion."

System: "Of course, you personally created those crows one by one, full of your hard work. Isn't that amazing? When you took them to the Divine Tower for certification, the Divine Tower was speechless."

Xuanyin: "I only pinched 36 of them."

"That's just a small thing. To protect your huge backpack, I had to help you fool all the surveillance cameras along the way. It took up a lot of my energy. So where are we going next?"

Xuanyin said, "As a sister who hasn't left the association yet, knowing that something happened in the exhibition hall where my brother is, of course I have to rush over."

Xuanyin went to other buildings and then came out of them.

At this time, the sun was scorching in the sky, the air was full of aircraft, and people were rushing from all directions. The army surrounded the entire association in three layers, and the rescue team rushed in urgently.

Xuanyin mixed in with the crowd and squeezed outside the cordon outside the exhibition hall, looking at the exhibition hall with a look of worry and shock.

"What happened? Ouch, it's shaking again!"

"Didn't you hear the alarm earlier? It must be that a nightmare beast appeared in the exhibition hall."

"It's so scary that a nightmare beast would appear in our association."

The exhibition hall was shaking constantly, and the glass windows and facades were falling down. Looking in from the window, one could see tentacles dancing wildly, accompanied by bursts of divine power of various colors. It was particularly magical.

There were also media reporters at the scene holding cameras and filming continuously. They were originally reporting on the imperial delegation, but they didn't expect to encounter such an accident. At this moment, they were like dogs that had smelled something, and they couldn't wait to squeeze into the exhibition hall to broadcast live.

Xuanyin wanted to move forward eagerly, but was pushed away by a group of media people. Soon, her clothes were messed up, her shoes were stepped on several times, her hair was disheveled, and she looked very embarrassed.

Until two gunshots were heard, and a flying vehicle overhead warned: "Crowd, evacuate outside. Do not crowd around the exhibition hall. Those who disobey will be treated as obstructing rescue!"

The crowd finally quieted down.

Xuanyin retreated to the side, leaned against a pillar, took a breath, and smoothed her messy hair.

The system circled above her head twice. "Wow, now it's impossible to tell you've been possessed! Even if you fall down now, it'll just look like you were stunned by the crowd."

Xuanyin ignored its teasing, maintaining a worried look on her face while communicating with it through her consciousness: "Can you help me improve my previous alibi? Also, did you record the process of Cheng Li Zixin meeting that man in the garage?

The system said, "Yes, I originally wanted to eat some melons, but I didn't expect that the video I recorded was quite important. Do you want me to send the video to someone?"

Xuanyin thought for a moment: "No rush, no rush now."

Suddenly, there was a cry from the front.

“It’s out! It’s out!”

Xuanyin hurried over and saw people coming out of the exhibition hall one after another. Some were walking out, and some were carried out.

Cheng Shuhui not only walked out by himself, but also supported an injured person.

Cheng Shuhui raised his head and saw Xuanyin. His expression suddenly relaxed. He was about to come over, but was stopped by someone: "Student, you can't leave for the time being. Please cooperate with our investigation."

"Oh, okay, can I talk to my sister? Let her go home first."

The soldier who spoke glanced back and said, "You don't need to say anything. Everyone in the association today needs to be questioned."

Xuanyin was indeed questioned.

"What's your name? Why did you come to the association today? What did you do after arriving at the association? Where did you go? Where were you at 2:30 in the afternoon?"

Xuanyin answered all these questions one by one. The only criticism she had was that, given her status, she shouldn't have been at the association today. But she blinked and said, "I came to send my brother here, and I ran into my ex-fiancé. He drove my car to the garage and didn't give me a parking space in return. Then I went to the garage and couldn't find it. At 2:30, I was looking for my car in the garage when I heard that something had happened to the Imperial Diplomatic Corps at the exhibition hall, so I rushed over."

The person who was questioning asked someone to verify and soon confirmed that the ex-fiancé Wen Yan had deliberately parked the car in a dusty corner on the third floor of the garage.

That is indeed very difficult to find.

Not only is it difficult to find, even if you do find it, you won’t be able to open it if your skills are not good enough.

What kind of petty ex-fiancé is this?

"Where were you looking?"

"I started looking on the first floor of the garage and found the second floor, but the garage was so huge and there were all kinds of cars, so it took me a while to look."

"Your flying car doesn't have a positioning system installed?"

"Yes, but the positioning system doesn't show which floor it is on."

It was confirmed that Xuanyin was captured by the surveillance cameras at the entrances and exits of the first and second floors of the garage. As Xuanyin's background was clean, Xuanyin's suspicion was cleared and the questioning ended there.

When Xuanyin drove away from the Spirit Master Association, it was already dark. Cheng Shuhui sent her a message saying that his investigation was not yet finished and asked her to go home after finishing it so as not to worry her mother.

After returning home, she briefly told He Zhiyi what had happened during the day, emphasizing that Cheng Shuhui was fine and was just under investigation, and asked her not to worry.

In the evening, I practiced my physical training as usual, took a bath, then took out new lotus seeds and began to pray.

After doing all this, she leaned against the head of the bed and took out the box that she had hidden so well that she had not found it during the body search just now.

The box is completely black on the outside, without a single crack, and looks like a complete alloy lump, but if you shake it, you'll find something inside.

The system munched on yam slices. "I don't understand. What's so special about this thing that you have to study it over and over again?"

Xuanyin said, "It smells like blood."

"Ah, after such a fight, it's normal for people to be injured and bleeding. Maybe this thing is an exhibit in the exhibition hall, and it got stained with blood."

"No, this smell is very special."

The system came closer and activated its olfactory system: "What's so special about this? Blood can have two smells?"

I smelled it for a long time but couldn't smell it.

Xuanyin didn't say anything, lost in her own thoughts.

After a long pause, he said with a complicated expression, "This smell reminds me of my senior brother. He is immortal, and his blood... is very special."

"Hmm?" The system came over: "Tell me, tell me!"

"His blood has powerful healing properties. Since I was born, my body and spirit haven't matched, and I've been plagued by illnesses, both major and minor. I've been critically ill several times. My senior brother prepared a special tonic for me, but the effect was always mediocre. Later, he added his own blood to the prescription."

"Wow! Using blood as medicine! You said before that the medicine you're taking now is missing a crucial ingredient, so its effectiveness is greatly reduced. Could that ingredient be your senior brother's blood?"

Xuanyin nodded: "That's right."

She looked at the impeccable box in her hand and said, "I took that medicine until I was ten years old. As I grew stronger, my senior brother changed my prescription. But as soon as the medicine was changed, I had a very strong withdrawal reaction. That's when we learned that my senior brother's blood was addictive."

"So you quit later?"

"Of course I did. It took me several years. I've given it up physically, but psychologically...anyway, whenever I smell my senior brother's blood, I feel all wrong. It's like a cat's claws scratching my heart."

The system suddenly realized: "So, the smell of blood you smell now makes you feel this way again?"

Xuanyin nodded: "Although it was only very slight, like a feather scratching the tip of my heart...but, how is it possible?"

She said in a low voice: "How come I came across something related to my senior brother here?"

The system pondered for a moment, "Could it be that someone here has a physique very similar to your senior brother? After all, this is the God-descended Star System. There are people with physiques that break through the SSS level, which is almost as strong as a solid wall. It wouldn't be surprising if someone with a similar immortality appeared here."

Xuanyin frowned. In her heart, her senior brother was unique, and she was reluctant to think about the possibility that someone else would be similar to her senior brother, but she also knew that what the system said was right.
