The fortune telling was so accurate that I accidentally accumulated a huge amount of merit!

Chapter 891 Deja Vu
Long Ling now truly believed that the little paper doll wasn't just being dramatic, but had genuinely suffered a great deal.

The others in the Special Administration Bureau gasped in shock when they saw this.

This was supposed to be an incredibly sturdy magical artifact, but after being hit by these hidden weapons, it crumbled into pieces like tofu dregs.

Fortunately, the little paper doll went to test the waters first, and Brother Long discovered the blind spot.

Otherwise, when they use their magical weapons to defend against these hidden weapons...

This made everyone in the Special Administration Bureau completely afraid to think about it anymore.

Knowing that these hidden weapons were originally meant for them, everyone felt a chill run down their spines.

The young man who handed the magical artifact to the dragon spirit was almost speechless at that moment.

“Brother Long…”

Although Long Ling was somewhat troubled by the current situation, he was not entirely helpless.

His body now contains a portion of the dragon essence from both the fire dragon and the ice dragon. No matter how powerful the hidden weapons in this place are, there is a critical point.

After thinking for a moment, Long Ling took out the ice ball again and injected some of the cold air into the secret passage.

The hidden weapons made of energy waves were frozen by the cold air and crashed to the ground without merging into it.

However, as more and more ice blocks appeared on the ground, the hidden weapons continued to rain down.

Long Ling immediately realized that the cold air alone had limited effect on these hidden weapons.

"We need to find out the firing principle of these hidden weapons first."

While Long Ling and the other members of the Special Administration Bureau were discussing the matter.

The little paper figure looked at Xie Xuzhi, who stood beside him like an outsider, and suddenly felt a little sorry for him because he didn't know any Xuanmen techniques. It was no different from being ostracized.

He immediately moved closer to Xie Xuzhi.

She comforted him in a childlike voice, "Director Xie, don't be discouraged. Everyone has their own expertise. Although you don't know any esoteric techniques, you're smart and shrewd."

Xie Xuzhi: ...

Looking at the little paper figure racking its brains to comfort him, he thought that he should wait until this matter was over.

We should find some proper learning materials for the little paper doll instead of always having it watch videos. Look at it now, it uses all sorts of random words.

"Thank you for still thinking of comforting me."

The little paper figure chuckled: "No need to be polite, we're old acquaintances."

As he spoke, the little paper figure stretched out its tiny palm and patted Xie Xuzhi's shoulder, as if to say, "We're good brothers."

Xie Xuzhi was truly at a loss with the little paper doll, so he simply changed the subject.

"I didn't lose heart. I was just thinking about the information I had seen before. Some of the mechanisms in this secret passage were somewhat similar to those in an ancient book I had seen before."

His insistence on coming in wasn't because he felt uneasy about not personally contributing as the director of the Special Administration Bureau.

Often, those in positions of real power have no need to empathize with those below them.

There's no need to even care about their feelings.

Xie Xuzhi was able to control most of the Xie family's businesses, as well as a large number of affairs at the Special Administration Bureau.

He is definitely not someone who seeks fame and fortune.

If he were worried that he wouldn't know any mystical arts and would be ridiculed by his subordinates, then he wouldn't be in this position at the Special Administration Bureau.

Not to mention, suppressing those old hands in the Special Administration Bureau and those from various mystical families.

Xie Xuzhi insisted on coming in for only one reason: he suspected that the person in charge of the underground palace was Jia Feng.

Whether considering the strength of the Xuanmen sect or its strategies, Jia Feng is definitely not simple. Xie Xuzhi worried that if the people from the Special Administration Bureau were to face Jia Feng, they would surely suffer a great loss.

Now, the only person here who can rival Jia Feng is him.

The little paper figure didn't know the real reason Xie Xuzhi came in, but it heard Xie Xuzhi say that these mechanisms looked familiar.

It immediately asked excitedly, "Have you remembered the details?"

No wonder the little paper doll was so enthusiastic; although it's a magical artifact, that doesn't mean it won't hold grudges.

Since being created by its master, the little paper doll has only suffered a few grievances and injuries.

Most importantly, the little paper doll hates the energy wave that makes it lose its way.

Thinking of this, the little paper figure touched its arm, which no longer hurt, and felt more and more aggrieved.

I wish the owner were here~
At this moment, the little paper figure never even considered the possibility that Long Ling or Xie Xuzhi would help it vent its anger.

This makes it worth mentioning that the little paper figure has a very clear sense of boundaries.

No matter how good her relationship was with Long Ling or Xie Xuzhi, her attitude towards them and towards Yun Ran, her master, would never cross the line.

Xie Xuzhi thought for a moment before saying, "I saw those documents before I was ten years old."

Perhaps because he was very young at the time, Jia Feng was wary of him, but the wariness he showed was different from that he showed towards adults.

That's why he had the opportunity to see the books in Jia Feng's study.

If Xie Xuzhi hadn't witnessed this situation today, he probably would have almost forgotten about it.

The little paper figure suddenly became a little anxious. Things seen before the age of ten were a bit suspicious.

Human memory is still very clear.

Especially for cubs, some things are etched in their memory and may be remembered very clearly.

But some things are not so important, and therefore are easily forgotten.

If only Director Xie had the same talent as their owner, he would almost be able to remember everything he saw.

"Say as much as you can remember, just in case it comes in handy!"

As a result, Xie Xuzhi said, "I have an excellent memory. I can remember things from my childhood, but this memory is too far away. I need to recall it again."

Upon hearing this, the little paper doll's eyes widened in surprise. It turned out that Director Xie had the same qualifications as its host.

Then, the little paper figure felt even more regretful.

It's a pity that someone with such talent was misled as a child into believing that he was not suited to learning esoteric arts.

Afterwards, he was subjected to such a vicious curse that he almost died.

The little paper doll projected this onto himself, (⊙o⊙)…, no, he was almost about to explode with anger!!!

I wonder how Xie Xuzhi felt when he learned the truth.

A person so intelligent, who planned everything, even risking his own life to calculate everything.

In the end, he was told that the path he had taken was planned from the very beginning, including his death.

How cruel that is.

The little paper doll sighed, then flew to Xie Xuzhi's shoulder and sat down.

He even reached out and put his arm around Xie Xuzhi's head, offering a comforting hug.
