The stolen magic is a bit magical

Lan Yao took a quiet breath and told himself that many seemingly unsolvable situations had turned out well under his guidance, and tonight would likely be no different!

Flying cars soar through the air.

It seemed to tear away the suffocating atmosphere.

That's just an appearance.

In fact, quite the opposite, the moment the flying car arrived, the entire audience held their breath.

This includes countless people in the darkness, including Yixiang.

Yi Xiang originally intended to give the snow turtle to Lin Xiaosu.

But Lin Xiaosu refused.

If the snow turtle were beside him, that person would absolutely not dare to show up.

So, the snow turtle stayed with Yixiang.

On the flying car platform, the flying car came to a stop, and everyone's heartstrings trembled.

The night wind rises, and the sky is empty, but it is precisely this emptiness that gives people the greatest sense of vigilance.

Suddenly, Lin Xiaosu's eyes lit up!
He took a step forward and arrived at the door of the flying car.

At the same time, he smelled a floral fragrance, a soul-summoning incense!
The incense to summon souls has been released!
The release point is in the void!
A chilling sensation swept past him. Perhaps he was originally going to pass through the flying car, but Lin Xiaosu just happened to take a step at that moment, and this chilling sensation went straight to his brow!

Within Lin Xiaosu's sea of ​​consciousness, the half of the Heavenly Dao Primordial Spirit, which had merged with all of his spiritual power, suddenly raised its head.

He looked up and saw a blurry figure!
The afterimage swept past.

The Heavenly Dao Primordial Spirit suddenly transformed into a sharp sword and slashed it down!
The phantom was half-annihilated by this sword strike...

Lin Xiaosu suddenly opened her eyes.

It is firmly locked in the void.

The next moment, he stepped over the ten-meter-long platform and onto the courtyard wall.

With a whoosh, a blue shadow flashed beside him, and the Blue Demon appeared in front of him.

Lin Xiaosu's figure had already disappeared. Lan Yao followed the direction he was flying in with lightning speed. They passed through the jungle ahead, three streets, and the riverside park. In the blink of an eye, the two of them had traveled at least ten miles in Jiangcheng at an inhuman speed.

Suddenly, Lin Xiaosu landed on the riverbank.

Lan Yao flashed and appeared beside him, her beautiful eyes fixed on his face.

This half of his face, at this moment, seems to blend with the starlight in the sky, giving people a strange feeling.

Lin Xiaosu's gaze slowly shifted and landed on Lan Yao's face, the corners of his mouth slightly upturned.

Lan Yao's heart skipped a beat: "Did you find something?"

She knew Lin Xiaosu's expression all too well.

Lin Xiaosu said, "There's bad news. That phantom has disappeared."

Lan Yao's heart sank to the bottom.

My damn confidence! How could I possibly expect to catch up with an invisible person with my detective skills? In fact, this person is clearly not human, he doesn't even have a physical body, he's practically a ghost.

Lin Xiaosu added, "There's also good news, do you want to hear it?"

Lan Yao suddenly raised her hand and grabbed Lin Xiaosu's hand: "Speak quickly!"

"I've found his true form!"

"The real form?" Lan Yao's heart nearly leaped out of her chest.

"When you fought against the Shadow King before, did you ever consider that the phantom he created that caused unrest in all directions was actually not important?"

"The important thing is the real body, right?"

"Yes, the true body is not destroyed, and the illusory image cannot be destroyed by physical means. But once the true body is destroyed, the illusory image will disappear on its own!" Lin Xiaosu said, "So, this is the secret to the Shadow King's immortality!"

The Shadow King roamed the world, leaving behind a legendary tale of immortality.

That's the real reason.

He killed people using "shadow magic".

The most bizarre aspect of shadow magic is that the shadow itself cannot be killed, at least not by physical means.

Even if you put an evildoer right in front of you, you can't kill him.

You can see and touch his true form, but you don't know it.

No matter how capable the members of the Hidden Dragon are, they can only avoid becoming the dead under this shadow. What ability do they have to deliver a fatal blow to the Shadow King?
Over time, Shadow King became the most mysterious and terrifying of the Hydra Kings.

"Where is his true form?" Lan Yao was a little confused. She felt as if she had stepped into a world of immortals and heroes. How could people have a true form and a false form?

"Follow me!" Lin Xiaosu darted forward, as fast as the wind.

The night breeze blew, wiping away the flush on his face.

Yes, his heart raced for a moment just now.

Because the piece he planted didn't bear fruit in Luoba Prefecture, but unexpectedly, the first fruit was borne in Jiangcheng.

What is this piece?
It was the brilliant plan he and the Holy Maiden of the Thousand Spirits devised.

That brilliant strategy came about quite by chance.

He accidentally discovered that after his Heavenly Star Tear entered the body of the Thousand Spirit Saintess, he could sense the location of the Heavenly Star Tear.

It was precisely because of this sudden discovery.

A bold plan was born.

He had the Thousand Spirit Saintess condense nine wooden rule flowers and give them to the Hydra.

The Holy Maiden of a Thousand Spirits came to Great Xia with a mission.

The high command of Hydra desperately wanted the "Thousand Spirits Relic," which could instantly heal injuries.

Very well, you want this relic, and you crave instant healing from your injuries, so I'll give you that ability.

However, I'm sorry to say, but you have to bear the consequences of having this ability.

What are the consequences?
Within twenty miles, Lin Xiaosu could sense his exact location!

He had calculated that as long as the Thousand Spirit Saintess gave these nine Wood Rule Flowers, which were imbued with his own Heavenly Star Tear Qi, to the Hydra.

Hydra will definitely target the most important and vulnerable people.

Who will be on the specific list?
Heavenly King!

Especially the Heavenly King who carries out the killing mission.

Tonight, the first fruit has ripened.

As the phantom of the Shadow King fled, Lin Xiaosu, relying on a general direction and precise perception of spatial turbulence, forcibly pursued it for more than ten miles. Just as the phantom was about to break free of its connection and even he could no longer reconnect, Lin Xiaosu was caught in the middle of the chase.

He suddenly sensed the energy of his Heavenly Star Tear!
What does it mean?
This indicates that there was a person whose body had been infused with the Flower of Wood Rules, and that he had arrived in Jiangcheng, less than twenty miles away.

Who could this person be? It could only be a true high-ranking member of Hydra.

Considering the current situation that the Shadow King has arrived in Jiangcheng, he is indeed the Shadow King.

If there is such a thing as truly fantastical detective skills, this is probably it.

Because this detective technique is no longer simply about following clues, or even about time travel under the all-seeing eye of the heavens; it also includes the application of chess strategies.

Once caught, the Shadow King will be doomed!
It was late at night by the river.

However, some people are still fishing.

This is actually quite normal.

The weather is getting warmer.

The streetlights behind us stayed on all night.

Many retired elderly people in Jiangcheng have a lifelong passion for fishing, and fishing by the river in the quiet of the night is their most enjoyable pastime.

For example, the one before you.

Sitting under the weeping willows, facing the Yangtze River.

A gentle breeze stirred, his hair flew, and he jerked the rod up sharply, pulling the fishing line taut as a fish struggled desperately below.

A smile appeared on the old man's face.

This is a person of Asian descent.

Judging from his attire, he should be an elderly man with a retirement pension of seven or eight thousand yuan.

He caught a white crucian carp, the most common fish in the Yangtze River. Under the starlight and streetlights, it had a beautiful appearance.

The old man nodded in satisfaction and tossed the fish into a fish basket at his feet. The lower half of the basket floated in the river, and there were still a few fish inside.

Suddenly, he looked up at the two people in front of him.

The two people's attire is actually quite common; they're just a young couple taking a stroll along the river.

The old man smiled, then stopped paying attention to them, and continued baiting his hook to prepare for the next cast...

Suddenly, the young man stepped forward: "Old man, where are you from?"

The old man smiled and ignored him.

The young man spoke again: "What? You came all the way to Great Xia, but you can't even learn the language properly? Is Shadow King this unprofessional?"

He is Lin Xiaosu.

Beside him was Lan Yao.

Blue Demon's eyes suddenly shone as brightly as the Yangtze River beneath his feet.

Shadow King?

He's actually an Asian?
really?
On what basis is such a judgment made?
From her perspective, she simply couldn't pinpoint what was wrong with the old man.

The old man in front of me frowned slightly...

Lin Xiaosu stared into his eyes and slowly added, "You can actually understand the language of Daxia, but if you speak it, you might give yourself away, so you try not to talk. It's a good habit, but unfortunately, now that I've already locked onto you and revealed my hand, there's no need to keep hiding anymore."

At this moment, the Blue Demon's entire body seemed to be enveloped in a hazy blue light.

This was a sign that she was about to make her move.

But she didn't act because she still couldn't make a judgment.

The old man finally spoke: "Young man, I didn't understand what you said. Are you sure you haven't mistaken me for someone else?"

The sound and the wording were perfectly normal Da Xia language.

"Not bad! Your Mandarin is very standard. It seems you truly deserve the title of Assassination King; you do have a good foundation in foreign languages!" Lin Xiaosu said, "Do you know why I targeted you so quickly?"

"Why?" The old man seemed somewhat confused.

Lin Xiaosu said, word by word, "Because... you have two shadows!"

Two shadows?

The blue demon's eyes shone brightly as he stared at the old man's shadow.

Are there two?

The light and shadows were blurred, and the streetlights were already very faint through the woods behind us. It would be good if we could see one shadow, let alone two.

However, she saw the old man's eyes.

At that moment, his gaze was infinitely cold.

It seems that just one look was enough to completely overturn the old man's image.

In that instant, her heart skipped a beat.

The old man's face suddenly split open!

Yes, it's the face!

Without warning, his face split in two, the two halves shooting towards Lin Xiaosu and Lan Yao.

The moment the face shot out, Lan Yao saw the old man's face clearly.

He is not of Asian descent!
Yellow race is just a mask!
It wasn't his face that cracked, but his mask.

The mask cracked open, revealing a Caucasian face, which was his real face.

Lin Xiaosu suddenly stretched out her hand, caught the mask that was shooting at him, and with a backhand motion, spun it out and shot it at the other half of the mask, where it exploded with a bang.

A cold yet familiar aura enveloped the Blue Demon.

Blue Demon's mind went blank once again.

This chilling aura was even more terrifying than the blow she received last night…

She was merely caught in the aftershocks, yet she already teetered on the brink of losing consciousness...

The next moment, the white old man suddenly transformed into countless ghostly figures.

The next moment, he darted across, a very narrow, sharp blade in his hand slicing across the Blue Demon's throat.

Blue Demon's consciousness was in complete disarray at this moment.

However, the muscle memory honed through years of bloody battles came into play.

She suddenly turned to the side.

An elderly white man walked past her.

The moment he stepped onto the embankment.

A sword cry!
A flash of sword light!
Incomparably sharp. (End of Chapter)
