Chen Guang got Xin Qin and Wu Miaowan to bring the people from Guangding Headquarters to rest. Many people were injured by Ouyang Tianxing's attack. Other than the unlucky old man who died on the spot, many others were injured. Fortunately, they had the battlefield doctor, Wu Miaowan. Although her medicine box wasn't big, it was filled with all the necessary items.
Xue Lin and her troops had retreated not far away. Once the order was given, Xue Lin immediately brought her people back.
As for the martial artists who had retreated, Chen Guang gave Xin Qin full authority to deal with them. Those who were certain that they were going to die and that staying behind would only be sending themselves to their deaths, the ones who escaped the fastest and shouted the loudest didn't need to come back.
Since they had become wolves that couldn't be tamed, they couldn't blame others for settling the score later.
As for people like Taoist Cang Song and Fist Tyrant Pan Da, the top experts in their sects stayed behind, and the elders who left to ensure that their disciples would continue, they were welcome to return.
Of course, it didn't take a genius to know that once those inner strength martial artists who escaped heard that not only did Chen Guang not die, but he even counterattacked, they would definitely piss their pants and run back to beg for the bureau chief's forgiveness.
The bureau chief didn't care whether he forgave them or not. Anyway, he didn't expect much from them from the start. From the start, he was just waiting for Liuli to show off and bring him flying.
However, the two deputy bureau chiefs who had lost their master would definitely have a huge knot in their hearts. It wouldn't be easy to get over it.
At this moment, the bureau chief and Wenwen held Jiu Li, who had betrayed them and turned into a guide, and headed towards the underground base of Shadow Alliance in the mountains.
"Kid! Hurry up! "
Wenwen was very anxious at the moment.
"That's right! Don't think that I'll let you off easily just because you haven't killed anyone. Don't think that you can pretend that nothing happened just because you're a professional uploader. You've ruined my reputation! "
The bureau chief was even more anxious now.
Fortunately, Jiu Li did not disappoint him and Wenwen. Without much effort, they finally found the antidote in the underground warehouse.
This brat was clearly a smart one. With his identity, he should not have the right to know the password to this storeroom, but he actually raised his hand and entered the password. Also, he heard that almost all the Shadow Alliance warriors had been drugged by Ouyang Tianxing, but he did not seem worried at all. He was definitely not one of the unlucky ones.
To be on the safe side, the two of them even let Jiu Li try one on the spot to confirm that there was no problem.
However, Chen Guang wasn't in a good mood at the moment because he saw something he didn't want to see in the warehouse.
The items on the shelves were human skin masks!
These masks looked exactly the same as the old men in Yan Jing. Ouyang Tianxing was not lying. Although he did not know what other tricks he had up his sleeves, he was really planning to take drastic measures to replace the crown prince with a civet cat just by looking at these masks that could pass off as the real thing.
If it weren't for Chen Guang's sudden appearance, he would have succeeded.
"How are these things made?"
When Chen Guang took a sniff, it was filled with the smell of medicine from the morgue.
Jiu Li wanted to say something but stopped.
"Do you really think I won't kill you?"
Chen Guang raised his eyebrows.
Jiu Li said helplessly, "I don't know the exact process, but from what I know, to make a standard mask, at least a few hundred lives have to be sacrificed. Every mask has to be made from a living person, slowly adjusting the person's appearance so that they look like the person in the photo. When the time is right, they are killed and the mask is removed. But in the process, there are many failures and few successes. As for those failed test subjects, sigh, I don't approve of it! However, they did say that they were test subjects. In the end, they were all killed. "
Making a rough count, Chen Guang estimated that there were over a hundred masks here. "That means that tens of thousands of innocent people have lost their lives because of this? Can't they use synthetic ones? Do they have to make it so bloody? "
Jiu Li thought about it. "No, I heard that they tried before, but the effect of synthetic ones isn't very good, and it's easy to leak the information. With Mr. Ying's personality, he would definitely choose a more convenient method. The real data will be more than this, not less. After all, during the process of kidnapping people, there will be some resistance, right? "
As Chen Guang sucked in a cold breath, he exclaimed, "Fuck! I let Ouyang Tianxing die too easily! If I knew this, I would have captured him and cut off his fingernail-sized flesh every day. I would have cut him to death slowly for a few years! "
"Alright, alright, what did you do? Since when did your taste become so heavy? If he's dead, then he's dead. Anyway, this won't happen again. "
Wenwen poked his shoulder. She didn't feel good about it, but since the culprit had been executed, there was no point in pursuing the matter.
Chen Guang patted the back of Wenwen's hand impatiently. "Please be more respectful when you speak to His Majesty the Holy Emperor!"
"Yo, is your tail growing? His Majesty the Holy Emperor? His Majesty? His Majesty! I'll give you a kidney! Kidney or not? How about a kidney? "
His Majesty the Holy Emperor walked out of the underground base with Sect Master Wen. The Shadow Alliance members who were still alive were squatting on the ground with their hands over their heads. There were also a few Pi Jin experts patrolling the area, who had been bandaged by Wu Miaowan but could still move.
On the other side, Pan Da, the boxing tyrant, was lying on the ground with a few seriously injured people, crying out in pain. His luck was pretty good, and his martial arts were profound enough to protect his heart meridian at the critical moment. Although the injury on his chest looked terrifying, he had barely escaped with his life this time.
"Chief, Xue Lin said that they'll be here for a while."
Xin Qin braced herself and continued to do her job as the Deputy Chief.
Chen Guang's heart ached when he saw her like this. He patted her shoulder. "Thank you for your hard work."
"It's alright, I … I can still hold on …"
She was strong in front of others, but now that this was over, she couldn't help but feel sad every time she thought of her master's tragic death.
Chen Guang quietly pulled her to the side. "I have something to tell you. Call Little Miaomiao over too."
Two minutes later, Xin Qin and Wu Miaowan stared at him with their mouths agape. They almost thought they heard wrong.
"You … Can you say that again? Our master isn't dead? "
Xin Qin tried her best to suppress her overly excited emotions and said in a low voice.
Wu Miaowan squeezed Chen Guang's shoulder tightly, afraid that he was just teasing them. "Although I hope you're telling the truth … but … but how is that possible!"
With a mysterious smile, Chen Guang asked, "Have you guys forgotten? I'm the omnipotent Grand Magister Wright Chen! "
"But aren't you an Earth Grand Magister? Don't tell me you're a dual cultivator of necromancy? But … that's not very good, right? " Wu Miaowan said hesitantly. She was in a dilemma. She hoped that her guess was true, but she also felt that it wasn't very appropriate.
Chen Guang patted her head. "What nonsense are you thinking? I'm such a decent person, how could I possibly learn necromancy? You've read too many web novels. Wake up."
Xin Qin and Wu Miaowan didn't know how to ridicule him from which angle. A person who talks about rasengan has the cheek to say that we've read too many web novels?
"In short, I can't explain it to you more clearly now, but you have to believe me. I've never lied to you. I've already saved Senior Xin and Senior Wu's lives, but I can't say for sure whether you'll meet them again in the future."
At this moment, it's impossible for Chen Guang to prove anything to the two of them. Hence, he could only make use of their absolute trust in him to dispel the sorrow in their hearts.
Xin Qin was skeptical. "You're really not talking nonsense?"
Wu Miaowan also asked. "You're really not teasing us?"
Chen Guang nodded heavily. "I swear on my two real names, Chen Guang and Wright Chen. If I'm lying to you, I'll be struck by lightning and die a horrible death!"
"Don't make such a deadly oath. We'll believe you, okay?"
Xin Qin hurriedly covered his mouth and secretly glanced at the slightly anxious Wenwen in the distance. She secretly felt a surge of sweetness in her heart. As he said, he really cares about me.
"Alright, that's it then, huh? When Xue Lin comes later, I'll ask her to cooperate with you to deal with the aftermath. I think there's still a lot of people in this underground base. These people have to be captured and interrogated one by one. Don't let any of them go. Especially that one called Jiu Li! "
Chen Guang pointed at Jiu Li, who was squatting down with the others, and specially reminded her.
His voice was a little loud, and Jiu Li heard it. She raised her head with a pale face. "I'm really wronged!"
Chen Guang didn't know how wronged Jiu Li was, nor did he want to know. He didn't even wait for Xue Lin and the others to arrive, but turned around and left with Wenwen.
"I'll go back alone. Why are you following me?"
Wenwen asked Chen Guang, who was running side by side with her.
Chen Guang's face was calm. "I'm worried about you. Besides, don't you want to say something?"
Now that he was free, he had gone through untold hardships to make a comeback. Now that he had such an amazing martial power, if he didn't show it off in front of her, how could he be worthy of the hundreds of thousands of years he had spent in the True Martial Land?
Don't you look down on me?
Don't you think you can handle everything by yourself?
Don't you think you'll harm me if you bring me along?
Don't you think I'm a burden?
Hehehehe!
Wenwen looked back at him and took a deep breath. After a long time, she said, "Thank you."
She really didn't want to admit that it was really difficult for her to say those words to Chen Guang.
Chen Guang suddenly felt comfortable. "At least you have a conscience. My hard work wasn't in vain."
"Hard work? What hard work? If you had this ability, you should have shown it earlier! Sect Leader Xin and Sect Leader Wu died so tragically, but you! What the hell are you thinking! "
Unexpectedly, Wenwen suddenly exploded.
She had been holding it in, holding it in, holding it in.
She didn't want to fight for Xin Qin and Wu Miaowan. She didn't want to blame Chen Guang for other people's matters, even if she always felt that he was wrong. But according to Wenwen's previous principles, even if she knew he was wrong, she would support him unconditionally.
However, it was different this time. Lives were lost, and it was the lives of two people who were like masters and mothers to the woman he cared about very much.
If Chen Guang didn't court death himself, Wen Wen would think that he might still be forcing himself to smile. In that case, she would let him off the hook for now. When everyone's emotions had completely stabilized in the future, she would step forward to uphold justice for Xin Qin and Wu Miaowan.
Previously, she had found a random excuse to ruthlessly knock this fellow's head. Actually, it was because Wenwen was angry in her heart.
In the end, not only did this guy not show any signs of repentance, he even had the cheek to come to her and ask for credit!
She couldn't stand it anymore!
Chen Guang didn't expect that not only would he not be able to show off, he would also explode. How could he explain to Wenwen that he really wasn't hiding his strength before, but that he was really that weak and only became strong at the last moment?
But that didn't make sense at all.
"What if I told you the truth, that I really didn't hide my strength, and that I paid a huge price to stimulate my life's potential, and that was how I managed to obtain invincible strength in that helpless moment? Would you believe me?"
Chen Guang took a deep breath. He couldn't let this injustice go to waste. Otherwise, he would feel too vexed.
He decided to tell a white lie so that his seemingly invincible strength in the Land of True Martial wouldn't be in vain for hundreds of thousands of years.
