Jackie Chan Adventures: I, the Mirror God, Master of Fear

Chapter 212 Empty Valley Correctional Institution

Konggu Criminal Reformatory.

Xiaoyu was looking at the newspaper in her hand with great interest. The newspapers had been published very frequently lately, three times a day, and they were all about hot topics.

This is now Xiaoyu's only pastime besides cultivation.

"I told you, you can't blame me for not being interested in things I study, right? Look, this research and hypothesis about magic is quite good. It suggests that demonic energy is actually oxygen, and that the concentration of magic has decreased due to human destruction of nature, ultimately leading to humanity's inability to defeat demons."

Is that so?

Xiaoyu watched with great interest and replied directly, "Of course not. Look, it's only in the entertainment section. It's just a wild idea. Besides, don't we already know what magic is?"

"Xiaoyu."

Jackie Chan appeared on the rooftop of the tallest building of the Konggu Correctional Institution, a rare smile on his face.

Xiaoyu turned her head, her face lighting up with joy. She immediately stood up to greet Jackie Chan, took the food box from his hand, and asked happily, "Uncle Jackie, what brings you here today? Let me see what delicious food you've brought me."

Looking at Jade, Jackie Chan's smile became even more genuine: "You forgot? Today is New Year's Eve. Tru and I made some dumplings, with cabbage and pork. Come and have a taste."

"Wow~ Thank you, Uncle Long, this filling is my favorite."

Xiaoyu quickly opened the package, ignoring the heat, grabbed one and stuffed it into her mouth, then showed an expression of enjoyment.

The dumplings seem especially delicious today.

Jackie Chan watched as Jade ate with great relish, a hint of doting in his eyes. He hadn't seen such a lively girl in a long time.

Xiaoyu, her mouth full of dumplings, smiled at Jackie Chan and mumbled, "Delicious, Jackie Chan, your cooking is getting better and better!"

"Be careful not to choke."

Jackie Chan said with a hint of helplessness, "Also, how many times have I told you not to chew with your mouth open?"

"Purple has arrived, may you find joy in the purple path."

Xiaoyu gave a perfunctory reply and ate the dumplings in big bites.

Perhaps because of Jackie Chan, the Spring Festival, which was not very popular abroad, has suddenly become popular.

The inmates in the reformatory also received new food, and bursts of fireworks exploded in the distance, painting a brief but brilliant picture in the night sky.

Looking at this scene that had only appeared three years ago, Xiaoyu forgot to eat for a moment.

It seemed that even at only thirteen years old, she was reminded of some beautiful memories.
Jackie Chan also watched the fireworks, a hint of nostalgia in his eyes. Fireworks are rarely seen in the United States; in Jackie Chan's memory, he only saw similar scenes when he was very young or in videos.

After a long while, the two of them came to their senses. Xiaoyu quickened her eating pace and pointed at the fireworks: "Uncle Long, I want to play."

"it is good."

Jackie Chan nodded and was about to leave.

His and Xiaoyu's expressions changed simultaneously.

It seems like we can't play anymore.

The two of them turned to look at the outside of the Konggu Correctional Institution at the same time.

In the jungle, which was made even darker by the fireworks.

A pair of scarlet eyes slowly approached.

"Xiaoyu, you stay here in case we lure them away. I'll go and handle this."

A faint gray aura emanated from Jackie Chan, but it vanished instantly without him activating his armor.

Even if the armor has power, it will still consume a person's lifespan.

He will not summon his armor unless he is facing an invincible enemy, and even if he does, he will not actively use its power.

Just like a month ago when they were patrolling the world, the armor was more of a decoration.

Jackie Chan's body slowly rose into the air.

He clenched his fist, and a phantom two-handed sword appeared in his hand.

Jackie Chan dashed out instantly and flew into the jungle.

Zheng~
Without any further words, the sword flashed, exuding killing intent.

The entire jungle paused, and then large swaths of trees began to fall, and those scarlet eyes dimmed.

Jackie Chan frowned. He hadn't managed to kill the Holy Lord; the Holy Lord had vanished by the time he got close.

Is the Holy Lord just here to make a simple visit?

Jackie Chan thought it was unlikely; how could Shendu possibly be so bored as to take such a risk?

Jackie Chan now truly has the power to cut Shendu in half with a single sword strike. If he can capture Shendu's soul, he can send Shendu back to hell.

If it's just a simple provocation, then the Holy Lord would seem very foolish.
hum~
A sharp aura erupted from behind.

Jackie Chan's expression changed, and he turned his head, immediately seeing the scene of a large red head being cleaved in the moonlight. Jade also didn't hesitate to use her deadly strike; neither of them had any goodwill towards the demon.

Jackie Chan strode over and instantly appeared beside Jade: "Are you alright, Jade?"

"fine."

Xiaoyu responded, frowning slightly.

That was Tara. Did she just come out to provoke us and then leave?

Are demons that bored these days?

How can it be?

She thought for a moment, then raised her hand, and runes appeared one after another.

In an instant, it enveloped the entire Konggu Correctional Institution.

The demon's only goal is to release Howling Wind, which requires the Panku Box. Therefore, all we need to do now is activate the Extraordinary Detection Magic to find out if the Panku Box is in the prison.

hum~
A white light wave swept across.

The entire prison seemed to darken in Xiaoyu's eyes; only extraordinary fluctuations brought color to her vision.

For example, Uncle Long next to me is like a big light bulb.

After checking it over, Xiaoyu frowned.

He had an idea, and he channeled the power of magic into the underground. A vast network of underground tunnels appeared in her field of vision, but it was still devoid of any color.

This means that no one with extraordinary abilities has come to this prison.

Xiaoyu looked even more confused. What was going on?
Before she could react, her eyes were instantly filled with white light.

Immediately afterwards, the massive black aura suddenly began to increase wildly, and in an instant, it seemed that all the extraordinary beings in the world could sense this aura.

Jackie Chan's expression changed, and he rushed towards the direction from which the aura was coming without hesitation: "Xiaoyu!"

Xiaoyu sensed the magic disappear and her vision suddenly returned to normal. She reached out, and a fan appeared.

"Demons and monsters, leave quickly!"

The whispered incantation quickly turned the fan a vibrant green.

She followed closely behind Jackie Chan into a changing room in the prison.

She tightened her grip on the sealing magic. This was the first time she had prepared a sealing magic before the demon even appeared. This time, the demon shouldn't be able to cause any trouble, right?
Hey everyone.

Just as a prison guard who was washing clothes was about to say something, he saw Jackie Chan's face. His expression changed, and he became obsequious: "Mr. Jackie Chan?"

Jackie Chan nodded, raised his hand, and a gray domain spread out, enveloping the Empty Valley Correctional Institution.

The next moment, all the prison guards found their weapons rapidly appearing in their hands.

Most of the prison guards stared blankly at the weapons in their hands, and before they could react, the surrounding environment suddenly changed.

They came to the other side of the jungle with the imprisoned criminals.

The sudden fusion caught everyone off guard.

Because now, more than a hundred prison guards have formed a circle, surrounding more than a thousand criminals in the center.

They instinctively raised their guns and aimed them at the prisoners, their nerves becoming increasingly tense.

Some prison guards shouted at the criminals, telling them to put their hands on their heads and squat on the ground.

With nearly two hundred guns pointed at them, the prisoners' initial confusion quickly vanished, and their eyes became incredibly clear. They slowly raised their hands, not daring to utter a single word, for fear that these guys might accidentally fire due to nervousness.

A tense atmosphere was spreading, and the warden began contacting his superiors.

He looked around warily.

The warden's heart began to ease little by little when the prison guard in the laundry room said that it was Jackie Chan who did it.

Oh, it's Jackie Chan. That's alright then, he's a hero of humanity.
This idea just came to me.

The warden's heart, which had just relaxed, suddenly tightened.

"Fuck! Sade!"

"Yes, sir!"

"Now, pinpoint our location immediately and head to the nearest city."

"Yes, sir."

The warden glanced at the sun, then looked with some worry in the direction of the Konggu Correctional Institution.

Jackie Chan suddenly cleared the set. Does this mean there's a demon involved?
He shuddered and began urging his men to leave this damned place as soon as possible!
