"According to the agreement, you have retrieved nine talismans in total. The remaining three talismans will count as one of your contributions, so I cannot give you all of the Golden Rooster King's treasure."

As he spoke, several dark figures appeared on the ground.

“In my palace are stored those enchanting treasures. You can follow these shadowy figures there and take your share.”

In fact, Jiang Shinian could have refused to pay for this part of the treasure, just like the original Holy Lord.

On the one hand, he still needs this lackey to act for him in the human world and to distract the main characters, since he will inevitably need them in his later plans.

Secondly, he certainly doesn't lack these worldly things. Their few uses, besides practicing alchemical magic, are as start-up capital when entering another world, generating benefits and support for him, thus facilitating his actions.

Valon listened to Jiang Shinian's words, his eyes gleaming with excitement.

This result suited him perfectly. After all, Jiang had already bestowed upon him a considerable amount of wealth over the past ten years. After converting it into cash, he was not short of cash for the time being. It would be better to keep all those antiques and ancient gold coins and let them appreciate in value, which would be a true form of wealth.

Valon's thinking was influenced by his own impoverished minor nobleman background.

After all, the truly profitable industries are already filled with all sorts of giants and big shots. If he tries to force his way in, he'll only end up getting hurt. Making the treasures more valuable is the best way he can think of to make money right now.

"Boss..."

Just as Valon was pondering how to make money from money, Afen, who was standing next to him, spoke softly, interrupting his train of thought.

"Look at this."

Ah Fen held the communicator in front of Valon's eyes, which was playing footage of fully armed police officers on the move.

"The resurrection of the Holy Lord has caused too much of a stir..."

He swallowed hard, then said, "Right now, I'm afraid all the police in San Francisco are converging here. They've even deployed tanks downstairs. Those police officers are all elites; we're already surrounded..."

Valon frowned, then looked at the shadowy ninjas around him, and finally turned his gaze to Shendu.

"Don't worry, they've just surrounded us. I think the Holy Lord will find a way to get us out of here, right?"

"Hahaha!"

"Are you going to leave with your men? Our deal is that only you will receive the Golden Rooster King's treasure."

Jiang Shinian's hoarse voice echoed throughout the hall. The people he was waiting for had not yet arrived. He was not in a hurry. Since these people were useful to him, it was not unreasonable to deal with them first.

"Yes, Holy Lord, they are my subordinates, and I must be responsible for them!"

Valon said firmly.

Unnoticed by everyone, Tru, who was standing at the very back, paused slightly upon hearing this, but a flash of white light appeared in his eyes, and he fell silent again.

Jiang Shi Nian let out a low laugh.

"The Shadow Kingdom can also be traversed by ordinary people. Your men have already experienced it, but only for a short period of time."

"short time?"

Valon frowned. "How short?"

"For you mortals, staying in the Shadow Kingdom for half an hour is not a problem, but half an hour is enough for you to run to the ends of the earth."

Jiang Shinian's blood-red eyes stared at Valon, his brow adorned with mysterious golden markings that shimmered with a mesmerizing, lustrous light.

"However, this requires the Shadow Ninjas to carry you. If you rely on yourselves, you can only walk in the Shadow Kingdom. In that case, you won't even be able to get out of San Francisco in half an hour."

Valon frowned and looked up at Jiang Shinian.

"Will my men and I still be useful to you later? Otherwise, you wouldn't have let me get the treasure. So give me a condition: what price do I have to pay for you to let us leave this place together?"

"condition?"

Jiang Shinian cracked open his ferocious dragon mouth, revealing an evil smile.

"No conditions are required; I can take all of you away."

"No conditions required?"

Valon raised an eyebrow.

"My father once said that everything in the world already has a price tag attached to it."

His voice had a touch of magnetism.

Chapter 94 Demonic Phenomena

“You have been resurrected, and all twelve talismans are on you. The monkey allows you to transform at will, but the fact that you did this means that I and my subordinates will still help you at some point in the future, right? But I don’t understand why you would need human help in any other situation.”

His gaze was fixed on Jiang Shinian, as if he wanted to see through the devil's thoughts.

Jiang Shinian felt no fluctuation in his heart. He gently stretched his body, constantly pondering and feeling the surging power within him.

When he was resurrected, the dark energy had already strengthened his twelve talismans to a certain extent.

Now, he felt full of power, and given Jackie Chan's current condition, he absolutely could not defeat him.

"Valon."

Jiang Shinian spoke calmly, his hoarse voice echoing throughout the hall.

"Don't underestimate yourself. The twelve talismans are just the beginning. There will be many more places where you will be needed. Those places shrouded in righteous magic will block my way. Only humans can enter. Don't worry, you will get what you deserve."

Jiang Shinian knew exactly what Valon wanted to say, and simply shut him up with money.

"Very well, so be it, Holy Lord."

Valon shrugged. In fact, his goal all along had been to stay by Shendu's side. He said this only to find out what value he was to Shendu.

In his eyes, this holy lord had become the God of Wealth.

If he wants to make money, relying on his mafia organization is no longer enough; jewels, gold, antiques...

The Lord bestowed upon him more and more wealth, and he had become somewhat inseparable from this demon.

Although he's a chatterbox, loves to yell, and has an unpleasant voice...

But he gave a lot!

"Go! Take everything you can carry as quickly as possible, and destroy everything you can't take. Gather all the brothers here, and hurry!"

Valon turned around and gave instructions to his men.

Ah Fen and the others breathed a sigh of relief when they heard Jiang Shinian's conversation with Valon. It was good that the Holy Lord had a way to get them away; they didn't want to stay in prison.

"Yes boss!"

Rasu and the others quickly agreed and ran out.

In fact, when Jiang was resurrected, Valon had already arranged for his men to pack up their belongings, intending to leave directly. However, he did not expect that the San Francisco police would act so quickly, as if they had been prepared in advance, which caught him off guard.

It didn't take long for Jiang Shinian to see the Black Hand Gang gathering and assembling through the eyes of the shadowy ninja.

This is an ability he gained after his mask permissions were upgraded.

The original Holy Lord could use it himself, but after he came here, he could no longer use it.

"My men are assembled and ready to leave at any time."

Ah Fen and the others came in and reported the situation to Vallon. Then Vallon looked at Jiang Shinian and said something.

Jiang Shinian twisted his neck, making a cracking sound.

He stood up from the large bed. He was extremely tall, and the room was so high that it was almost too small to accommodate him.

"The shadows will lead you to my palace, take what is rightfully yours, and then leave. I will have the shadows take you to a place to stay."

Jiang's hoarse and deep voice rang out, and Valon nodded.

Jiang Shinian's scarlet eyes flickered.

Instantly, the darkness on the ground surged outwards wildly, spreading throughout the entire floor in an instant.

"Holy..."

Valon was startled and was about to speak when he was engulfed by darkness.

"Shh!"

A commotion arose outside the hall, followed by a flash of black light, and then silence returned in an instant.

Furthermore, apart from Jiang Shinian, there was no one else left.

After receiving the mask permission prompt, he discovered many abilities he had never had before.

He can now even transfer a portion of the power of the talismans to the Shadow Ninjas, which allows him to guide these mortals through the Shadow Kingdom without having to personally intervene.

Although he still had the seal left by that damned thing Lopez within him, preventing him from fully utilizing the power of the talismans, the simple combination of having the shadow ninjas carry him with his levitation and speed was enough to make them move at high speed through the shadows.

After sending all these people away, Jiang Shinian turned his gaze to the outside of the Black Hand Building.

At that moment, a loudspeaker blared from outside.

"Valon, neither of us wants bloodshed. We have the evidence of your crimes. Now surrender and we will not launch a military attack against you."

The sound was extremely loud, lingering and swirling in the air, and spreading throughout the empty Black Hand Building.

Outside the Black Hand Building, countless police officers, fully armed and wielding guns and bullets, carrying riot shields or firearms, stood ready for action.

A dozen or so armed helicopters circled in the sky, their rapidly spinning blades emitting a deafening roar.

On the ground, beside and in front of the heavily armed police, dozens of heavy tanks were also positioned, their fire aimed directly at the Black Hand Building.

In the distance, it seems that even more terrifying armed forces are approaching in this direction.

The command center for this operation was located in an inconspicuous spot surrounded by police.

Among them, Sheriff Blake was appointed as the deputy commander, but now he looked serious and said to a tall, thin white man next to him, "Are you sure you want to just raze the Black Hand Building to the ground like this?"

"You have already witnessed the power of magic. Congress has confirmed that the mysterious elements of this world should not be underestimated, and that demon has now been resurrected."

"His resurrection even caused boundless black clouds and flames, visible throughout San Francisco! Isn't the birth of such a terrifying phenomenon enough to demonstrate its immense power? That archmage once said that only magic can defeat magic. By gathering people together like this, you could very well be wiped out!"

"enough!"

The tall, thin white man immediately shouted.

After rigorous deliberation by Congress, the Ugly Kingdom established the Ninth District, dedicated to the study of the world's mysterious forces.

And he was none other than Kurret from District 9.

"A demon? An anomaly?"
