Winter returned quietly, saying:
"The preparatory ritual for the plan has two steps. First, receiving energy; second, transferring energy."
“Originally, the more difficult part of preparing for the ceremony was the second step.”
“We have prepared sophisticated instruments to transfer this portion of energy used as a ‘primer.’ However, instruments are inanimate objects and cannot cope with unexpected situations, nor can they guarantee a 100% success rate. So it’s difficult.”
"And now, you've arrived. This second step is no longer a problem."
"but……"
Dong Gui's piercing gaze suddenly fixed on her: "On the condition that you have no ulterior motives!"
No sooner had he finished speaking than Salgano moved.
He simply crossed his hands in front of him, and a golden longsword appeared. Instantly, he released the pressure of a ninth-level supernatural power!
"Bang!"
"Hmm..."
In an instant, Hua Changle was like Sun Wukong facing the Five Finger Mountain, and was crushed to the ground with a bang.
The hardest part of his knees made a heavy thud against the ground, preventing his body from being completely crushed.
She struggled to support her body, resisting the oppressive force that felt like gravity magnified dozens of times.
The bones in my body were cracking and popping, and my heart was pumping blood faster!
So heavy!
I can't breathe!
Hua Changle strained until her gums bled before she pried open her throat to let air in, preventing her from suffocating.
"Sir..."
She pleaded silently.
"Arno".
Winter returned softly.
The oppressive force immediately lessened considerably.
"Haa...hahoo..." Hua Changle's neck veins bulged as he desperately sucked in air.
She trembled as she looked up, her fearful gaze tentatively meeting the elderly man seated in the high chair: "Sir... Ah Jiu dares not... dares not..."
Dong Gui sighed softly, stood up, and gently patted the top of her head:
"Good child, you've suffered. But whether you dare or not is no longer relevant."
Alarm bells rang in Hua Changle's mind, but the next moment!
"Gee!"
Hua Changle's pupils suddenly contracted.
Like a puppet, she lowered her head slowly, only to see the long sword suddenly piercing her body!
Blood dripped from the tip of the sword, and a golden circular magic circle flashed around the edge of the sword.
With a flick of his wrist, Salgano drew his longsword. The boy's slender body leaned forward slightly, then fell heavily backward.
[Flowers are always joyful!]
Hua Changle's eyes were open; she had not yet lost consciousness.
But she couldn't move...
That longsword is strange!
Blood gushed out, and she felt cold.
She was scared, and a sob almost escaped her throat, but she managed to hold it back.
I'm so scared...
Will I die?
Dong Gui nodded, and Salgano took out a vial of medicine, squatted down, pried open her mouth, and poured the medicine into her mouth.
The boy was thrown back to the ground, but the wound on his abdomen had stopped bleeding.
Salgano, who had stood up, did not see that the boy's eyes, which were disguised as black, turned scarlet for a moment.
The next moment, the boy lost consciousness and fell into a coma.
Winter Returns tapped the ground lightly with his walking stick: "Take him with you. He is not allowed to leave your sight until the ceremony is complete."
Salgano frowned slightly: "Sir, is someone beside you?"
Dong Gui's eyes were sharp, and his tone left no room for doubt: "Planning is above all else!"
Salgano immediately bowed his head: "Yes, sir!"
He will absolutely obey his master's words and decisions, and will never disobey them.
Because without his teacher, he would not have been able to escape the abyss in his heart back then, and he wouldn't be who he is today. His teacher's kindness is equivalent to being reborn.
From that moment on, Salgano Villa's life belonged to the gentleman!
Salgano scooped the person up from the ground, draped him in his arm, turned around, and walked to the wall.
The hidden door in the wall opened, and Salgano led his men into the deep passageway.
——
Night falls.
Although it was past midnight, marking the beginning of the Great Heat solar term, the cool, moist air at the bottom of the canyon and beside Binglun Lake had significantly reduced the summer heat. The overall feeling was quite comfortable.
However, Hua Yuezhi, who was on duty in front of Kazmir's residence, felt uneasy and somewhat anxious.
He is disguised as the guard "Mountain" and is on duty at Kazmir's residence tonight.
According to Lele, the ceremony preparations should have started by now, and Lele should have sent a message to notify everyone before the ceremony began.
However, starting in the afternoon, he did not receive any messages from Lele.
Hua Yuezhi's heart skipped a beat: Could something have happened to Lele?
However, he immediately dismissed this possibility.
The ceremony is about to begin, and they wouldn't harm Lele at this time. Lele plays a crucial role for them, and given the fanatical behavior of the "deification faction," even if they discover Lele is an undercover agent, they would squeeze every last drop of value out of her before taking action. It's impossible for them to suddenly harm Lele at this crucial moment.
However, not being killed doesn't mean there's nothing else going on.
Hua Yuezhi immediately realized: Lele may have already been taken into custody by them!
The purpose is to ensure the completion of the preparatory ceremony!
Hua Yuezhi suppressed his worries.
At that moment, Kazmir walked over and entered the residence.
With a quick glance, Hua Yuezhi noticed that Kazmir was in a bad mood. Even his steps seemed hurried, as if he was looking for something.
Sure enough, Kazmir came out again shortly afterward, his face even more pale.
Nanqi hurried over at that moment and whispered something in his ear.
"What?" Kazmir exclaimed.
His face looked grim.
He then quickly left.
