"Oh well, I'm not one to be intimidated, so I'll just tell you." Fengchu, completely deflated, leaned against a pillar in the pavilion and said.
“A large group of people came to snatch it, all wearing the same wholesale night clothes. But later they started fighting amongst themselves and split the upper and lower parts of the Dark Scripture in two.”
They split into four groups, each heading in a different direction...
Xia Xiang's heart skipped a beat. This meant that besides Dong Zhuo and Ye Siyi, there were now two other sixth brothers.
"What does 'unyielding to power' mean?" Xiu asked, somewhat puzzled by his words.
"Same question," Xia Xiang silently raised her hand.
“Threats and violence cannot subdue them,” Sun Shangxiang explained speechlessly. “I will help you catch up on your Chinese lessons when I have time, so don’t worry.”
"No need!" Xiu and Xia Xiang both refused in unison.
Then they were silently watched by the other three...
"Fengchu, why didn't you say something so important sooner?" Sun Shangxiang looked at Fengchu again, and sprinkled itching powder directly onto Fengchu's fair calves.
The other three looked at each other in bewilderment.
"Ah—uh~"
Fengchu screamed, but Xia Xiang's antidote immediately sealed her mouth shut.
"This is a huge scandal for the Pang family, don't you think?" Fengchu was being tormented by the group until she cried.
"So, there are three other people like Dong Zhuo who might cultivate the Dark Scripture?" Guan Yu felt that the world was too difficult; it was already chaotic enough, but now this kind of thing was happening.
Dong Zhuo was already difficult to deal with; if three more Dong Zhuos appeared, the world would collapse.
"In that case, the situation is really bad," Sun Shangxiang said, frowning in thought.
Xia Xiang and Xiu exchanged a glance; this should be considered a matter for the Silver Dimension itself.
But if it involves the demon realm, they have no choice but to intervene. How can they balance the order of space and time? It's a difficult situation.
"Tch~" Feng Chu scoffed lightly, "Do you think the Dark Scripture is as easy as cabbage, that anyone can practice it?"
"I've traveled all over the world in the past few years, and I've found three-quarters of the original Dark Manual, but I haven't been able to find the answer key for the rest."
Hearing that the answers had been found, the group breathed a sigh of relief, but when they heard that the reference answers hadn't been found, they felt like punching him.
"Over the years, I've secretly been keeping an eye out for anyone using the Dark Scripture, but I haven't found anyone. A few days ago, I sensed something amiss and went to investigate, almost losing my life at the hands of this madwoman!" Feng Chu glared at Xia Xiang angrily.
"It's all a misunderstanding, a misunderstanding," Xia Xiang explained, feigning composure.
"I was out having fun when I saw a strangely dressed person doing strange things in a strange place. So I was afraid you were plotting something, and I decided to tie you up so I could have a good talk with you."
Phoenix Strange Chu snorted coldly, turning her head away, unwilling to see the four of them.
"Brother, the more important thing for us right now is to break Dong Zhuo's Five Ghosts Transporting Technique and rescue the other students of Dong Han Academy," Guan Yu reminded him. "We can talk about the Dark Scripture later."
“Yes, Phoenix Chick, lend us the Dark Scripture to take a look,” Sun Shangxiang said. “Even if there’s no way to undo it, we can at least take a look at the Five Ghosts Transporting Technique and see if we can figure out its principles.”
"So many people have already seen it, so what's a few more people seeing it? Besides, we're not going to do anything bad after seeing it."
“No!” Fengchu refused outright. “I have already sealed those three copies. I absolutely cannot take them out. I myself cannot even see them.”
"Never mind, he doesn't even know it himself, judging from his appearance." Xia Xiang raised her hand, and the rope was untied. "Let's go, let's go find Dong Zhuo."
The remaining three clasped their hands in farewell to Fengchu and then followed Xia Xiang away, leaving Fengchu there fuming and furious.
"Actually, we still don't know where Dong Zhuo is," Guan Yu said.
"It's alright. Since he's taken hostages, he'll make his demands." Xia Xiang leaned back on the large sofa in the Cao residence, eyes closed, seemingly resting. Just as she finished speaking, Xiu received a call from a mysterious man, his tone somewhat perfunctory...
