Mysterious Séancer: My Doll Can Really Show Its Power
Chapter 256 Joint Encirclement and Suppression! No Longer Acting on a Whim
Beside the vast wellhead.
An elderly man, nearing the end of his life, sat cross-legged on the edge of the well, wearing a straw hat and a raincoat, holding a black object that looked like a fishing rod, seemingly fishing from the well.
Old Xu stepped aside and said to Li Bai, "Go ahead, Group Leader Luohan wants to see you this time."
As Li Bai stepped forward and passed through the iron gate, he felt an extremely sharp and sinister aura, along with what seemed to be the low breathing of some kind of creature.
Clang, clang!
As Li Bai approached the Locked Dragon Well, he heard the clanging of chains coming from the vast, abyss-like opening of the well.
Could it be that there really is a dragon locked in this well?
Upon approaching, Li Bai discovered that the Locked Dragon Well was no less than a hundred meters in diameter, and it was pitch black when viewed from above.
Both the old man sitting cross-legged on the edge of the well and Li Bai appeared extremely small in the face of the Dragon Locking Well.
The endless darkness inside the well sent a chill down Li Bai's spine at the mere glance, as if a ferocious beast lurked within, ready to emerge at any moment!
Stunned by the scale of the Dragon Locking Well before him, Li Bai was momentarily lost in thought.
Because of the Ghost Festival this year, the air above the Locked Dragon Well is filled with deathly winds, making the clothes of the old man and Li Bai rustle loudly.
A moment later, the old man coughed twice, bringing Li Bai back to his senses.
He hurriedly said to the old man, "Excuse me! Team Leader Luohan, you were looking for me?"
As Li Bai spoke, he looked behind the Arhat. The light shone from in front of the Arhat, leaving not a single shadow on the ground.
"Stop looking. You guessed right, I'm just a ghost."
Luohan, holding his black fishing rod, sat motionless on the edge of the well and said, "I asked you to come here today because I have a favor to ask you."
Li Bai hurriedly replied, "Please speak!"
The Arhat moved slightly, clang!
The sound of chains clanging rang out.
Only then did Li Bai notice that the Arhat was wearing an iron chain as thick as a bowl.
One end of the iron chain pierced through the emaciated body of the Arhat, while the other end extended into the pitch-black depths of the Dragon-Locking Well.
As soon as the Arhat moved slightly, the clanging of chains echoed from inside the well.
Looking at Li Bai, Luohan sighed and said, "When the time comes, please help me cut off the iron chains binding me."
Li Bai had no idea what the iron chain was made of or what its origin was.
But he felt that the chains worn on the body of this Luohan group leader must be extraordinary.
Li Bai asked in surprise, "Me? Can I?"
"You? Of course you can't."
Luohan glanced at the peach wood sword on Li Bai's back and said, "But your sword is acceptable."
Li Bai: "......"
Suddenly, Li Bai felt as if he had become the servant of the peach wood sword on his body.
It's the sword that I use to get things done; I'm just the one carrying it to its destination.
The reason for all of this...
Li Bai said speechlessly, "If I had known, I wouldn't have lent him the sword back at Qingyu Mountain!"
Hearing Li Bai's words, Luohan laughed and said, "Child, lending someone a sword is always better than lending someone your life, isn't it?"
Li Bai asked in confusion, "What do you mean?"
Luohan nodded and said, "That's right, I did lend my life out. But fortunately, my time for lending my life is almost up. Ten years have passed in the blink of an eye..."
As he spoke, he shifted his body again, clang clang—
The sound of chains being dragged echoed continuously inside the Locked Dragon Well.
Pointing to the edge of the Locked Dragon Well beside him, Luohan said, "Come sit down and chat. We have plenty of time; it'll be tomorrow night."
Li Bai walked over and, imitating the Arhat, sat cross-legged on the edge of the well.
Luohan smiled as he looked at the peach wood sword on Li Bai's body.
He nodded and smiled, "Your sword carries Yang Ning's aura. I can feel it. He's changed. He's no longer the impulsive child he once was."
Li Bai: "???"
Isn't Yang Ning just acting on a whim?
Li Bai said cautiously, "Ahem, well, Group Leader Luohan, you probably don't know him very well."
Luo Han shook his head: "No, it's because you don't understand him."
Li Bai disagreed, arguing, "In terms of wealth, he's worth tens or hundreds of billions. In terms of power, he can kill whomever he wants, and he really will kill whoever he wants. Isn't that just acting on a whim?"
Arhat: "Of course not, it's all about following fate."
"The people he wants to kill are all those with whom he has a connection."
Li Bai was speechless for a moment. He seemed to understand what the Arhat meant by "acting according to one's nature" and "acting according to fate."
Do as fate dictates; those you kill are those with whom you have a connection.
That would mean acting on impulse, which would mean killing whoever one wants!
They don't even consider fate?!
It's one thing for ordinary people to act on impulse, but if Yang Ning acts on impulse!
Thinking of Yang Ning's unpredictable strength, Li Bai couldn't even imagine what it would be like if he acted recklessly!
Rivers of blood? Mountains of corpses and seas of blood?
Li Bai shook his head vigorously, his voice trembling slightly: "Team Leader Luohan, could it be that Master Yang was just acting on a whim back then?"
Luohan nodded and said, "Yes."
This single word filled Li Bai with boundless respect for the person before him!
This one word represents a bloody battle!
Luo Han continued, "A five-year-old child falls into the hands of a madman and is tortured for two years using spirit possession techniques. Do you think this child would have any goodwill towards the world?"
Li Bai paused for a few seconds, then murmured, "Then...and then what happened?"
Luohan's voice was extremely calm, as if he were talking about something so ordinary: "The special management departments of six countries—Xia, Sakura, Gaoliang, the Grassland, Nanyang, and Tianxiang—jointly launched a bloody battle to encircle and suppress them, resulting in a pyrrhic victory."
"A crushing defeat? A victory? We won?"
Li Bai found it hard to believe; how could they have won?!
How could the special affairs departments of six countries, working together, actually defeat seven-year-old Yang Ning?!
and many more!
Having gathered the resources of special management departments from six countries, shouldn't they be able to defeat a seven-year-old child?
Why do I find this so unbelievable?
Li Bai felt that there seemed to be something wrong with his understanding.
But he couldn't worry about that. He was puzzled, "If we won, why is there still this 'Little Master Yang' today?"
Luohan turned to look at him, a puzzled expression on his face: "Child, your way of thinking is a bit strange..."
"Why should he be excluded just because we won?"
Li Bai: "???"
"Team Leader Luohan, you've gathered elites from six nations! Wouldn't a victory solve everything once and for all, eliminating future troubles?!"
Luohan remained silent.
Li Bai sensed that he seemed a little embarrassed.
"Child, when our special agents from six countries attacked Qingqiao, our objective was not to kill Yang Ning."
"It's to prevent him from acting impulsively."
"Later, we achieved our goal, so we won, didn't we?"
Li Bai: "......"
Li Bai understood what the Arhat meant.
So even if all the elites from your six nations gathered together, you weren't confident you could kill them?!
Immediately, Li Bai thought of the foreigners who were preparing to arrest Yang Ning.
"And this time, those Westerners who were preparing to arrest Master Yang?!"
Luo Han nodded at the opportune moment and said, "Yes, that's right, these Westerners do indeed have an adventurous spirit."
"Influenced by maritime powers, Westerners have always admired this spirit of adventure, which is indeed something that we Easterners lack."
"But I don't recommend that our young people learn from them. After all, caution has its advantages, right?"
Li Bai: "Of course!"
