"This mysterious woman is very likely a key figure, or at least an important executor."

"at last."

Su Chen's eyes became deep.

"If Emperor Lufa really revives, it will definitely be an earth-shattering event."

"His return will inevitably bring about a series of chain reactions."

"We can conduct a reverse investigation and sort out all recent events related to the Nether Demon, especially those seemingly 'unusual' injuries, locations with unusual energy fluctuations, or major events that appear isolated but have some kind of coincidence in time or location."

"By linking these events together, we may be able to discover new patterns in the activities of the Nether Demons!"

"We may even discover their connection with that mysterious woman or the power behind the scenes."

Su Chen's analysis is progressive and logically clear.

The situation that seemed to have no clue at all was instantly analyzed into three clear investigation directions.

Huan Ying and Wu Gang nodded repeatedly, their faces full of admiration.

"Wow! Brother Su Chen, you are so awesome!"

Wu Gang couldn't help but admire.

"In such a short time, you've come up with so many key starting points! It's incredible!"

Her beautiful eyes lit up when she welcomed Su Chen, and her eyes were full of love and admiration as she looked at him.

"Yes, Su Chen, you always see what we overlook. This way, we have a clear direction!"

"Then let's split up."

Su Chen said.

"Xiaogang, you have a wide network of contacts. Find a way to coordinate and retrieve the surveillance footage around the Demon Suppression Tower and along the possible routes. The workload may be huge, so I'm going to have to work hard on you."

"No problem! Leave it to me, Brother Su Chen! I guarantee that the task will be completed!"

Wu Gang immediately patted his chest and promised that he was excited to contribute to the team.

"Welcome. You are quite sensitive to online information. You will be responsible for collecting and organizing all recent reports on Nether Demon-related incidents at the base, especially those that are unusual and illogical. You will screen and analyze them to see if you can find any connections."

Su Chen looked at Huan Ying and his tone became much gentler.

"Yes! I will definitely search carefully and not miss any suspicious clues!"

Welcome to nod seriously.

"Then I will be responsible for going out to visit and investigate."

Su Chen stood up.

"On the one hand, we will conduct an on-site survey of the places where the Nether Demon has appeared recently to see if there are any clues that we have missed. On the other hand, we will try our luck and see if we can directly find some traces of the Nether Demon."

After the three of them had divided the work, they immediately started to act.

Wu Gang hurriedly left the base and used his connections to coordinate the retrieval of surveillance footage.

Welcome to turn on the computer and devote yourself to the collection and analysis of massive amounts of information.

Su Chen also left the base.

He wasn't wandering aimlessly.

Instead, based on the information he had, he went straight to a small courier shop on the other side of the city.

Li Haotian’s “Everyday Express”.

As soon as he walked to the door of the express store, he saw a girl with a stern face and a distant and cold look in her eyes walking out of the store.

The girl seemed to be worried and walked hurriedly. When she went out, she accidentally bumped into Su Chen's shoulder.

"..."

The girl just raised her eyes and glanced at Su Chen coldly.

Without any apology or expression, she walked right past him and left quickly.

Su Chen looked at the girl's departing back, paused, and a strange look flashed in his eyes.

This face...seems familiar.

After a moment's thought, he remembered.

Isn't this the girl with unique temperament that he accidentally saw on the road when he first arrived in Hope City?

I felt that she was a little special at that time, and I didn't expect to meet her again here.

More importantly, Su Chen vaguely felt a faint but real aura of the Netherworld Demon from her, as well as a strange energy fluctuation.

Combined with the information he knew, the girl's identity was about to be revealed -

The Tibetan cultivator, Li Youer!

A girl who carries the resurrection gene left by Lufa in her body and has been possessed by the Netherworld Demon Chi Ming Kula for a long time.

No wonder she is so cold and aloof.

It would be difficult for anyone to remain cheerful after suffering from the long-term torture of the Nether Demon and the pain of genetic conflict.

Su Chen looked at Li Youer's back as she gradually disappeared around the corner.

His eyes flickered slightly, and a plan instantly formed in his mind:

This Li Youer, possessed by the Nether Demon, is a moving trouble in herself.

The aunt is the son of the aunt.

It just so happened that I needed a reasonable excuse to get in touch with the Gengqi Vajra.

Rather than...

Let’s start with the Chi Ming Kula on her body!

Solving it not only eliminates a hidden danger, but also serves as an opportunity to naturally ask Huanying about the whereabouts and information of Gengqi Vajra.

Well, kill two birds with one stone.

After making up his mind, Su Chen retracted his gaze, adjusted his expression, pushed the door and walked into "Tiantian Express".

The space inside the store is not big, and there are some packages piled up waiting to be sent and received.

A young man wearing a courier's uniform, with a slightly haggard and stubborn look on his face, was sitting behind the counter sorting documents.

It was the former summoner of the Xingtian Armor, Li Haotian.

Li Haotian heard someone coming in, without even raising his head, and asked habitually:

"Send or pick up a courier?"

"I find you."

Su Chen's calm voice sounded.

Li Haotian suddenly raised his head, and when he saw that the person coming was Su Chen, his brows instantly frowned.

His eyes were filled with vigilance and a hint of subtle complex emotions.

"It's you?"

His tone was filled with obvious impatience.

"I should have said it before, I have no interest in being an armored warrior! Stop disturbing my life!"

Su Chen showed a playful smile on his face and walked slowly to the counter.

"Do you think I'm the kind of person who likes to force others to do things, or go back on my word?"

He paused and glanced at Li Haotian's slightly decadent face.

"I came to you just to... send something by express delivery."

"Expressing something?"

Li Haotian frowned, feeling even more confused.

"What is it? We only accept ordinary packages here."

Su Chen didn't say anything, but just reached into his pocket, slowly took out something, and gently placed it on the counter.

It was a device full of technology, shaped like a dragon head, and completely fiery red.

Xingtian Armor Summoner!

When he saw the summoning device, Li Haotian's pupils suddenly contracted and his body shook uncontrollably!

He stood up suddenly and put his hands on the counter.

He stared at the summoner intently, his breathing becoming rapid.

This... isn't this his Xingtian summoning device? !

Su Chen actually wants to send it away? !

Although he had already decided to give up, when it appeared before his eyes again, he still felt an indescribable pain and confusion.

"You...what do you mean?"

Li Haotian's voice was a little hoarse.

He tried hard to appear calm, but his slightly trembling fingers betrayed his inner excitement.

He subconsciously wanted to reach out and take it, but then suddenly pulled his hand back.

His eyes were full of resistance.

"I...I'm not sending this! You take it!"

Su Chen seemed not to notice Li Haotian's struggle, and just said lightly:

"Help me deliver it to the 'Happy Dumpling House' in the next city. Once there, someone will naturally receive it. That's... the new summoner of the Xingtian Armor."

After saying that, Su Chen stopped looking at Li Haotian, turned around and walked out of the store.

Only those words and the summoner lying quietly on the counter remained.

"A new...summoner?"

Li Haotian stood there blankly, Su Chen's words exploding like thunder in his ears.

He looked at Su Chen's departing back, then lowered his head to look at the Xing Tian summoning device on the table, his expression extremely complicated.

New Summoner...

Isn't this what he's always wanted?

Take off the burden, return to normal life, and let someone who is more capable and willing to take on this responsibility take over.

But...why?

Why did his heart ache so much when this moment finally arrived?

It's like a piece of me was gouged out.

The sense of loss of being replaced, the unwillingness hidden deep in his heart that even he himself was unwilling to admit.

At this moment, it was like a surging undercurrent that almost swallowed him up.

"Is this really what I want?"

Li Haotian muttered to himself, his eyes blank.

He stood in front of the counter for a long, long time, like a sculpture.

The sunlight shone on him through the glass window, stretching his shadow very long.

Finally, he took a deep breath.

As if he had made up his mind, he slowly stretched out his hand, trembling, but with great determination, and once again grasped the cold and familiar Xingtian summoning device.

Feeling the familiar touch coming from the summoner, the confusion in Li Haotian's eyes gradually faded away.

In its place was a complex and ambiguous determination.

He put away the summoner, picked up the express delivery slip on the table, and wrote down the address of "Happy Dumpling House".

Then he locked the shop door and got on his delivery motorcycle.
