"Tap tap tap..."

Odin turned on his eight-legged steed, and the thunderous neighing of the horse gradually faded into the distance.

The white light in the rainy night disappeared as he went away.

Xia Mu was a little stunned, not understanding why Odin would suddenly let him go.

Is it because he doesn't have dragon blood and can't be a puppet? Or has he already accomplished what he was supposed to do?

"The dragon's incantation that released the power of words has also disappeared..."

With a hiss, the Murasame in Xia Mu's hand fell to the ground.

"Maybe it really is over..."

His vision went black, his body fell forward, and he lost consciousness...

Tokyo, Genji Heavy Industries, inside the monitored room of Kazushi.

"Who are you?! Where is my brother?!"

Uesugi Erii leaned weakly against the kotatsu table. Through her blurry vision, Genjiro roared at her while holding two swords.

Yes, roar...

She could even see his tonsils trembling violently in his throat as he roared.

Why did my brother suddenly become so fierce...?

She doesn't understand.

"thump."

The girl collapsed onto the kotatsu table and completely lost consciousness.

"Ok?"

Yuan Zhisheng frowned.

"Child, don't be hasty. A man must remain calm when facing important matters."

Behind him, Tachibana Masamune walked out of the passage.

"Father, everything that happened today is too bizarre. The entire Genji Heavy Industries has been thoroughly investigated, but there's absolutely no record of this girl entering or leaving. Unless she passed through all the walls and suddenly appeared..."

Genji turned to Tachibana Masamune and said, "According to existing records of Words of Power, there is no Word of Power that can do such a thing."

This celebrity really wants to retire.

Tachibana Masamune nodded, a fleeting hint of anxiety in his eyes: "How's the investigation on Princess Kaguya going?"

Yuan Zhisheng reached out and pressed the left earpiece. Soon, the gentle female voice of the super AI Kaguya came through: "All surveillance equipment in the country has been searched, but no trace of Young Master Mu has been found."

"Abroad?" Yuan Zhisheng quickly asked.

Princess Kaguya said, "My abilities are limited abroad. I suggest you allow me to contact Norma at the academy headquarters and ask her to help with the search worldwide."

Genjiro frowned and looked at Tachibana Masamune: "Dad, should we ask Norma from the academy headquarters for support?"

“Asking Norma for help is tantamount to exposing Xiaomu to the academy’s eyes,” Tachibana Masamune said in a low voice. “If they discover Xiaomu’s extremely unstable bloodline, the consequences will be unpredictable. We must not let the academy’s main campus know about Xiaomu’s existence unless absolutely necessary.”

Genji shook his head, disagreeing with his opinion: "We're forced into this situation now. Even with Kaguya's extensive surveillance within the country, they can't find Koki. This means we're helpless in the short term, unless we issue a bounty throughout Tokyo's underworld. But that would be too conspicuous to cover up, and besides..."

He looked at Tachibana Masamune and said softly, "Kimichi is very unstable. Every little delay brings huge risks. I think you, Dad, don't want to see the news of him destroying half the city."

Tachibana Masamune remained silent for a long time.

Genjiro stood still, awaiting his decision.

He knew that Tachibana Masamune would make the right choice because he was the head of the Snake-Headed Eight Family.

"This girl..."

Tachibana Masamune's gaze suddenly fell on the unconscious Erii: "Can't we find out her identity either? Kogi's disappearance is inextricably linked to her. If we could find out her identity..."

“Princess Kaguya is doing her best to find information about her,” Genji shook his head, “but if the other party could move Koki away without anyone noticing, then all traces of her must have been completely erased…”

Tachibana Masamune nodded, without holding out much hope.

"We've found her information."

At that moment, Princess Kaguya's voice suddenly rang out.

Genjiro and Tachibana Masamune were taken aback: "So fast?"

“Xia Liyi, a Chinese idol star, a pure and innocent little queen,” Princess Kaguya said directly, “Her information has been sent to you in its entirety.”

Genjiro and Tachibana Masamune opened their phones and read the messages she had sent.

"Not a hybrid? Just an ordinary person? How is that possible?!"

Yuan Zhisheng stopped swiping the screen: "Did you make a mistake?"

"After comparing their figures and appearances, the similarity is 99.9%. Even twins wouldn't have such a high degree of similarity," came Princess Kaguya's voice.

Genjiro looked at Erii with a strange expression: "Someone who can freely enter and leave this place is actually an ordinary person?"

“Ignore her, give her a sedative and keep her asleep to prevent her from suddenly disappearing again,” Tachibana Masamune raised his head and quickly made up his mind. “Kaguya-hime, request Norma’s assistance and search for Xiao Mu’s whereabouts in China by following the clues of this Xia Liyi.

"Yes."

Princess Kaguya immediately took action.

Genjiro and Tachibana Masamune walked out side by side, and the heavy metal door behind them slammed shut, leaving Erii alone, slumped over the table.

They didn't even glance at her again.

Kassel College.

"Norma received a request from the Japanese branch and began tracking Karii in search of Uesugi's trail."

"Target locked on China, the last place Xia Liyi disappeared."

"An hour ago, Xia Liyi drove her supercar onto the elevated highway, and then a torrential downpour began. She disappeared in the rain..."

With Norma's powerful computing capabilities, clues were quickly found and sent to Tachibana Masamune and Genjiro's phones.

Meanwhile, in the office of the principal of Kassel College.

The handsome, silver-haired old man leaned back in his chair, dressed in a black suit, a red rose tucked into his lap, swirling a wine glass in his hand, tilting it slightly to observe the color of the red wine left on the rim.

A fine red wine, amber in color.

This man, of course, is the legendary figure Hilbert Jean Angers, who lives on a "beast-like desire" for revenge against the dragons.

"Uesugi Muki, the most mysterious head of the Uesugi family among the Snake-Headed Eight Families, lives a secluded life and almost no information about him can be found."

Norma's voice rang out in the office: "According to the clues provided by Princess Kaguya, his disappearance is related to Xia Liyi, the rising star of China, and her last appearance was in Lu Mingfei's hometown."

"Oh?"

The wine glass in Angers' hand was placed on the table with a crisp, resonant sound.

"Uesugi wood?"

A gentle smile appeared on the face of the old-fashioned British aristocrat.

"From the same family as my old friend..."

Chapter Eight: Chu Zihang?

"Well…"

Xia Mu's eyelids trembled slightly, her eyeballs rolled around, and finally she slowly opened her eyes.

A ray of slightly dazzling sunlight illuminated his face, causing him to close his eyes again.

"you're awake?"

A soft, youthful voice came from behind.

When Xia Mu opened his eyes, he only saw a handsome profile in the sunlight.

But when he turned completely around, he suddenly became expressionless with a blank face.

"You are…"

Xia Mu searched through his memories of this life, but found no recollection of it.

The boy stared into his eyes, his gaze heavy with something weighty, but he still spoke in a flat tone: "Chu Zihang."

"Chu...Chu Zihang?"

Xia Mu almost bit his tongue.

Having lived in this world for so many years, I never noticed anything unusual. But in just one day, the Dragon Clan world has completely invaded me. Following the little monster, the indiscriminate killer senior brother has also appeared.

"You know me?"

A strange light flashed deep in Chu Zihang's eyes.

"You don't recognize me?"

Xia Mu said something else entirely.

Chu Zihang frowned: "Should I know you?"

Xia Mu stared at him without saying a word.

Senior, aren't you a fan of high-quality idols? Aren't I the highest-quality idol right now? I promise I won't let things fall apart...

"Where is this? Where did you find me?"

He looked around.

Facing the ruthless senior brother was like facing Erii; Natsuki understood their personalities, so he wasn't flustered at all.

“This is my home,” Chu Zihang said, staring intently into his eyes, not missing a single subtle change in his expression. “I found you near the exit of the elevated road.”

Xia Mu asked in surprise, "What a coincidence?"

“Unfortunately,” Chu Zihang said expressionlessly, “every time a sudden downpour like this happens, I go to check out the area near the elevated highway…”

“And,” he handed over his phone, “the latest news headlines, take a look.”

Xia Mu took the phone, and the first thing he saw on the screen was a headline in bold: Shocking! Pop star's car found in the middle of nowhere! Completely totaled!
