Chapter 514: Chapter 514

The Black Robed People were also startled by the explosion, and at the same time, the pointer on the Compass swirled chaotically.

This meant that the people they were trying to capture had already scattered and escaped.

This small Feng Shui Sha caught them off guard, and they hadn’t expected to suffer such a loss.

"Damn it, why did the explosion happen suddenly? Maybe it has already alerted the nearby Special Administration Bureau."

The Little Paperman could clearly hear the gritted teeth in their voices.

If it weren’t for its owner’s instructions not to expose its identity, it would have rushed forward to give these people a few hard punches.

Unable to openly confront these people, the Little Paperman sneakily made a few Sha Qi Balls, sized them up, and then hurled them towards the leader.

Another "bang" echoed.

"Who’s there causing trouble!"

One explosion might be accidental, but the second one, especially as it directly attacked them, made the Black Robed People sure that someone was secretly messing with them.

The Little Paperman immediately laid flat, camouflaging its body with leaves, lying amidst the fallen leaves on the slope. ʀᴇᴀᴅ ʟᴀᴛᴇsᴛ ᴄʜᴀᴘᴛᴇʀs ᴀᴛ novel(ꜰ)ire.net

Unless someone had eyes as sharp as a hawk, there was no way they could find its true self.

As for the Compass, it had already been disrupted by the Feng Shui Sha here, so there was no hope of locating it.

Seeing the Black Robed People looking like they wanted to jump in anger, the Little Paperman almost laughed but managed to cover its mouth tightly.

"Hall Master, there’s no one else here."

The Black Robed Person holding the Compass carefully checked the surroundings. If there were other people or living beings here, he’d be able to find them.

He never dreamed that his Compass, which could detect life force, even if plants and creatures had turned intelligent, could detect nothing.

He simply hadn’t thought that the Little Paperman was a Magic Artifact that had developed spiritual wisdom, a higher-level life force that the Compass couldn’t detect.

"No matter who’s causing trouble, don’t let these people go. They dared to use millennia-old ice to ambush the elders. If we don’t eliminate them, we won’t have peace!"

The few of them planned to spread out and pursue, no matter how many they could catch; they had to bring back these people who dared to challenge power and skin them alive as a sacrifice!

Just as they were about to spread out, the Little Paperman sneakily tossed out some Thunder Flowers, which, by chance, struck them.

The several screams in the night sounded particularly eerie, and the Little Paperman held its ears in sympathy.

Estimating that the people had fled far away, the Little Paperman was ready to tackle the Black Robed People, when it heard quick footsteps approaching.

The Little Paperman immediately shrank back, and soon saw people wearing Special Administration Bureau uniforms appear.

The leader was someone the Little Paperman was quite familiar with, Shen Zhe, who was in a team with Yun Ran previously.

Seeing the Black Robed People rolling on the ground in agony, Shen Zhe’s face slightly changed.

He had since been promoted and was no longer a mere task force leader. With more authority, he knew more things.

"Arrest them all and take them back!"

After the Special Administration Bureau people tied them up, Shen Zhe looked around at the situation here.

Clearly, he was uncertain as to what these Black Robed People were doing here.

In the past, wherever the Black Robed People appeared, something major was bound to happen.

Suddenly thinking of the large serial car accident nearby in the afternoon, Shen Zhe almost immediately determined it was related to these Black Robed People.

"Boss, this place is supposedly a pretty fierce Feng Shui Sha; seems like those Black Robed People were startled by this Feng Shui Sha."

Seeing his subordinates getting more absurd, Shen Zhe said nonchalantly, "Get someone to break this Feng Shui Sha!"

The subordinate had been joking, but hearing the boss’s command, he immediately straightened up, "Yes, Boss!"

When Shen Zhe left, he looked back in the direction where the Little Paperman was lying.

For some reason, he felt that there was something very familiar nearby.

The Little Paperman watched as Shen Zhe’s subordinates fiddled with Magic Artifacts nearby for a long time before finally breaking the Feng Shui Sha.

When the surroundings finally returned to calm, the Little Paperman flew out again and twisted its body.

Now it understood why those people previously hid in this Feng Shui Sha place.

Here not only could cover the bloody aura on them but also conceal their life force, which had been locked onto by others.

Unfortunately, the Black Robed People were obviously more skilled and managed to find them still.

If its owner hadn’t discovered their tracks and sent it to help, those people would have perished here today.

By now, the sky was slowly lightening, and it needed to return.

On its way back, the Little Paperman was less cautious, whooshing back to the hotel and sticking to the window.

If outsiders saw this, they’d likely just think it was a sticker someone had placed.

Once Yun Ran woke up, the Little Paperman immediately came over to claim credit, eager to replay everything that had happened before.

It especially emphasized its agility, not being discovered by anyone.

It recounted how it had toyed with the Black Robed People.

"Master, I also heard one of the Black Robed People is a Hall Master, and they mentioned Dark Palace Elders, millennium-old ice, or something like that."

Yun Ran had seen Black Robed People before, yet knew even if captured by the Special Administration Bureau, nothing could be learned from them.

These people had prohibitions placed on them, which the Special Administration Bureau couldn’t break, nor could she.

Luckily, Yun Ran never wasted energy on this; not finding their origin nor knowing their intents didn’t bother her.

If these people sought trouble, she’d deal with each one, a pair—she’d deal with a pair.

But now, Yun Ran felt that maybe her original father knew some inside information about these Black Robed People.

He probably knew some of their weaknesses too; otherwise, how could the millennium-old ice injure some elder?

Yun Ran took out her phone and messaged Xie Xuzhi, relaying the limited clues from the Little Paperman.

This kind of professional matter should be handed over to professionals.

After breakfast, Yun Ran once again took a bus to Qingfeng Temple; today, she aimed to set up the defensive array of Qingfeng Temple.

The bus had just reached not far from the mountainside when Old Liu suddenly hit the brakes.

"Miss, there’s someone lying on the road ahead!"
