Chapter 164 Rescue Arrives

Xun opened the photo Ye Jingjing sent and handed it to Xingyu. "I think it's someone from the cult. You can't tell from a wizard. They seem to be from the common people. She just gave them a routine notification and went to help."

Xingyu looked at the picture. It was quite far away, but she could still see the magical light and shadow and five or six figures covered in black on the other side. She opened the chat history and couldn't help but chuckle.

Ye Jingjing: [Senior Xunfeng, are you asleep?]

Ye Jingjing: [It's so late now, and I think I asked a stupid question—I saw people fighting outside, it was a wizard and a symbiote.]

Ye Jingjing: [After thinking it over, I wanted to report to you. I'm going over there to help; the wizard is about to lose.]

Kaoru: [I saw it. Be careful, I'm coming to help right away.]

"She didn't reply; she must have already transformed and rushed up." Xun leaned against the door, silently observing He Jin in the distance.

Xingyu felt a pang of jealousy at Ye Jingjing's words. "Why didn't she ask me? Did she tell Sister Li Shuang?"

"There's no activity in the group chat, so it seems like nothing's wrong. Now I'll say something—are you a little unhappy?" Hoshino Kaoru took the phone, added a few words, and then looked up at her with a strange expression.

"No, it's just that you really have the feel of a teacher, and she's starting to rely on you."

"It's one thing for her to respect me—but she might be a little afraid of you," Kaoru said after thinking for a moment.

"Afraid of me? Aren't you afraid of me?" Xingyu was completely bewildered.

"—Because of her relationship with Tang Ming, you always unconsciously look at her with a scrutinizing eye, but you're not very close to her. Plus, with Xingyu's reputation, she's probably under a lot of pressure."

Xun rolled her eyes at her and explained earnestly. Xingyu had always been the one who contributed the most among them, and she didn't want there to be any unpleasantness between Ye Jingjing and Xingyu.

"I—I don't know, I'm not very good at dealing with children."

Hearing Xun's "guidance," Xingyu felt a little ashamed. She recalled how she had been hot and cold, and her occasional probing attitude must have been very stressful for a sensitive child.

She subconsciously regarded Koba Kaoru as her companion and someone to fight alongside, and as a magical girl, she didn't "care" too much about their respective ages.

But she overlooked Ye Jingjing—after all, she was just a little girl who hadn't even graduated from junior high school.

"I'll go to Ye Jingjing's place. As for He Jin—if all else fails, just cripple him completely, purify the alien substances in his body, and leave him alive. This form, which is almost identical to a Void Beast, is very valuable for research."

"We really haven't done enough research on Void Beasts and Aliens—you go, I'll interrogate him; perhaps I'm good at these things?"

Xingyu nodded, waved her hand, and all the media in the base emitted a dazzling light, pure magic was poured into them, and after checking them, she flew to the university town with peace of mind.

Xun tilted her head and circled outside the range of the concealment spell, gently touching the ring in her hand. A purple gothic dress wrapped around her body, and after transforming, she walked in front of Tang Ming.

"Who are you----"

"The information matches up." Inside the safe house in the city center, Hua Lingyou looked at the confirmation in her hand and said, "He should have been taken away by the magical girl Xingyu. This address is very likely their base."

"Is this an unexpected bonus? We actually managed to find out where the magical girl is hiding—" Xiao Zhang smiled knowingly.

"It's not certain yet. Maybe it's just a place where they're secretly holding people." Zeng Que curled his lip. "They didn't even send them to the Demon Extermination Department—it seems they don't trust us at all."

"None of that matters. We don't know what happened to Tang Ming, but we have to go and rescue him," Hua Lingyou said decisively.

The old manager nodded. "Hopefully he didn't reveal anything. If he's forced to undo his transformation like you, that would be a bigger threat than the cult. We'd have no place to stand in Fangzhou City."

Zeng Que looked at Hua Lingyou with schadenfreude, Xiao Zhang lay on the side indifferently, and Hua Yiyou did not speak, sitting obediently in the corner. She had no reason or right to interfere in the organization's conflicts.

Hua Lingyou sighed, "If you want to interrogate me, forget it. I'll apologize when the boss returns. Now, gather your forces to rescue Tang Ming!"

Xunfeng brewed himself a cup of hot tea. Drinking tea late at night is not a good habit, but he couldn't sleep tonight, so he could only use black tea to dispel his drowsiness.

"You are—Kaoru? Magical Girl Kaoru?"

"Am I that hard to recognize?" Xunfeng slightly raised his chin, a faint air of cold arrogance rising between his brows.

"I'm not very familiar with it—don't let this magic circle shock me, it's useless anyway, I'm almost numb."

Tang Ming would definitely use a different approach when facing another person.

According to the organization's analysis, this Miss Xunfeng is not like Xingyu, who is as eager to eradicate the Void Beasts as she is. She has a proud yet peaceful personality and acts like a well-mannered young lady. As long as she is not excessively provoked, Xunfeng will not kill.

Xunfeng thought about it and realized it made sense, so he put down his teacup, elegantly pinched his fingers and drew a symbol in the air, and the blue magic circle under Tang Ming's feet gradually disappeared.

"I saved you from physical pain; how will you thank me?"

Tang Ming was stunned for a moment, then threw the question back at him: "You saved me, how do you think I should thank you?"

"Can you explain why you're causing destruction in the city? You're not beasts; what benefit do you get from killing and arson?"

Xunfeng asked curiously, "The Void Beasts destroy things randomly and chaotically, but you must have something to gain from it, right? But all this time, besides taking advantage of the chaos with the Void Beasts—it seems like you haven't done anything else?"

Tang Ming's heart skipped a beat, and his eyes darted away.

"Every time we spot you, you run away after only a few hits. We initially thought it was just that humanoid beasts had an instinct to seek advantage and avoid harm, but now it seems that we've been led by the nose all along."

"Miss Xunfeng, you're overthinking it. I'm just following the cult around taking care of enemies, purely acting as a henchman. As for any conspiracies or plans from higher-ups, how would I know?"

Tang Ming smiled and shook his head helplessly.

"You're not a member of the Order, none of you are. I suspect—you're probably even hostile to the Order." Xunfeng's words were startling. After saying that, she calmly picked up her teacup, while Tang Ming looked at her with suspicion.

"I don't quite understand your reasoning for this guess. I'm a bit confused. What do you mean by not being a member of the cult?"

Xunfeng interrupted, "When the Void Beast No. 3 appeared in the city last year, followed by Nos. 4, 5, and 6, attacking various parts of the city, where was the New Human Cult at that time?"

"The New Human Cult only began its large-scale infiltration of Fangzhou City this past month. You are a separate organization with no connection to the cult whatsoever—Xingyu was blinded by concern and was led astray by you."

Tang Ming remained silent, finally letting out a sigh. He hadn't expected that the unassuming Xunfeng would be so perceptive.

The organization's existence was completely unknown to the authorities before this. Now that the magical girl has confirmed the existence of a hidden "Void Organization" in Fangzhou City, their actions will no longer be as bold as before.

Tang Ming felt ashamed when he thought about how the organization was now "besieged on all sides" because he and Sister Hua had both exposed their existence.

Anmeng Insurance relies on its legitimate "identity" in Fangzhou City to act freely, seemingly in control of everything. However, even with all its strength combined, it is difficult to confront the magical girl head-on. Ultimately, it is because it is too weak.

"It's a bit shameful to be a villain to this extent—" Tang Ming murmured to himself.

"What did you say?" Xunfeng blinked.

"I want to say—regardless of whether I am a member of the Order or not, my companions have arrived."

Tang Ming smiled slightly, and with a struggle, he raised his hands, which were bound by chains, and pointed at the top of Xunfeng's head.

Xunfeng's pupils contracted, and he immediately looked up. The next instant, four jet-black hammers, each ten meters in diameter, slammed heavily onto the base's magical shield.

"pound!!!"

Xiao Zhang, Hua Lingyou, and two humanoid phantom beasts encased in crystal armor after their transformation manipulated giant hammers formed from alien matter, smashing them against the magic shield once again.

"Bang!! Crack—"

The medium supporting the magic shield shattered with a crash, and the second layer of magic input set up by Xingyu was instantly activated. Golden talismans flew out from below, retaliating against the four people outside the base.
