Black Feather was furious, but that didn't mean she had lost her reason.
After flying for a few seconds, she sensed something was wrong. After all, she should have reached her destination by now, given how short the distance was.
She instinctively looked back and discovered that she was still in the same spot, not having moved forward even a single meter.
“There’s an anti-air array here!”
“Hmph, they’ve been the local overlords for so many years; they do have some tricks up their sleeves.”
Bang! Bang! Bang!
Several bullets were fired toward the two sisters in the sky. The twins easily dodged them and landed on the ground.
“It’s them!”
“They’ve trespassed into the Qi family estate! Shoot to kill!”
The Qi family had originally made their fortune in Wang City through arms smuggling, so they were never short on guns.
Even a Sequence 6 had to retreat in the face of such a hail of bullets.
Black Feather’s eyes gradually turned crimson. Since the last incident, the spirituality within her body had become increasingly violent.
If this continued, she would lose control sooner or later.
And a Sequence 6 who lost control would be a disaster for both their organization and the city.
“Thieves!”
“You all must die!”
Black Feather roared, and the lotus crown on her head erupted with brilliant light. She charged forward through the rain of bullets, pressing her right hand toward the security personnel who were firing.
Snap.
Snap.
The heads of those security personnel spun a full one hundred and eighty degrees, and their bodies slumped to the ground.
Black Feather stepped forward and kicked the gate open. She casually picked up a firearm and charged into the Qi family courtyard.
“Halt!”
“Rat-tat-tat—”
“You...”
“Rat-tat-tat—”
Gunfire and screams became the dominant melody of the moment.
Seeing this, White Feather also picked up a gun and joined the bloody carnival.
The man in the trench coat, however, vanished silently, as if he had never appeared at all.
“The enemy’s firepower is too fierce! Where are the transcendents?”
“Quick, notify the higher-ups! The enemy is at the door!”
“Don’t be afraid, brothers! Now is the time to earn your glory!”
“I’m hit! Help me, help me!”
Black Feather and White Feather were like gods of slaughter; no one could stand in their way.
...
Having just returned to his apartment, Yin Yang looked surprised. He sensed that his array had been activated!
He had previously ordered the blade-wielding ghost to place some items in the woods, making slight modifications to the Qi family’s defense array to turn it into a charging array.
It would absorb the life force of those who died within the Qi family estate.
The more lives lost, the more energy it would store.
When enough death energy was stored, the defense array would transform into a sacrifice array!
This was why he had used potions to catalyze the growth of cockroaches and rats.
First, it was to have them destroy the stability of the Qi family estate as much as possible, making it easier to bury explosives later and maximize the destruction.
Second, the Qi family would definitely kill the rats and cockroaches they saw. Since these creatures reproduced very quickly, they could continuously repeat the process of dying, slowly accumulating death energy.
However, when he had visited the Qi family last time, he saw that the death energy accumulated by the array wasn't very much. If he relied only on those cockroaches and rats, it might take a year to complete the array’s transformation.
Yin Yang had been thinking about how to speed up the process, but he hadn't expected such a major development today.
Connecting this to the Black Feather and White Feather he had seen earlier, and the fact that they had been asking about the Qi family, Yin Yang could roughly guess the truth.
He glanced at Canned Food on the sofa and silently closed his bedroom door.
Canned Food’s ears twitched. It looked around the room before finally fixing its gaze out the window.
...
“Bureau Chief, transcendent fluctuations have been detected in the direction of the Qi family!”
“Bureau Chief, someone near the Qi family reported hearing gunfire inside the estate.”
Inside the Security Bureau, Wang Dong was in the middle of an ‘interrogation.’ Hearing his subordinate’s report, he couldn't help but grin.
“Gunfire?”
“Not only did they surround my Security Bureau, but they’re also hoarding firearms?”
“Hahaha! Good, good, good!”
“Old Huang!”
“Present!”
“Leave some brothers to watch over these scum. The rest of you, get fully armed and follow me to the Qi family!”
“Yes, sir!”
...
West District.
Liang Family Shoe Repair Shop.
Liang Guan pushed open the door and stepped out, dressed in a sharp suit like an elderly gentleman.
He tapped his feet lightly, feeling the softness of his leather shoes.
“Rather than letting outsiders take the divinity, it’s better to leave it to a local like me. I’m sure Qi Xiangyang must think so too.”
As he spoke, he walked unhurriedly toward the Qi family, continuing, “That old fellow Qi Xiangyang is treacherous and cunning.”
“He always likes to plan before acting. Since he dared to reveal the divinity, he must have made thorough preparations.”
“Is he planning to lure us there and then turn us into a part of his strength?”
He muttered to himself like a madman, but in the next moment, a raspy voice sounded from behind him.
“It’s very possible.”
Xia Zhiqiu appeared as if out of thin air. Liang Guan wasn't at all surprised, as this was one of the abilities of a Ghost Messenger.
“But regardless, we have to try, don’t we?”
“How do we split the divinity once we have it?”
“We’ll decide that after we get it.”
“Fine.”
...
The sky gradually darkened.
Within the Qi family estate, screams filled the air.
Black Feather and White Feather had already fought their way to the front of the main house, leaving fifty or sixty corpses behind them.
“Old Third, you really are a jinx!”
Qi Hai’s expression was grim, but Qi Jiang looked excited.
“Those two are really beautiful. They’d make lovely dolls for my collection. I’ve never played with Sequence 6 dolls before!”
Qi Hai took a deep breath and turned to look at the basement entrance.
Thud.
Thud.
Thud.
A series of heavy footsteps echoed from the basement, accompanied by a faint dragging sound.
“Perfect timing.”
“There’s no time like the present. Let’s do it today. Send the word: move out.”
“Yes!”
Qi Jiang looked thrilled. He took out his phone, dialed a number, and shouted, “Heh heh heh... Do it!”
Boom!
Boom!
Boom!
One powerful pressure after another rose from outside the manor.
Although the Qi family only had one Sequence 6, Qi Xiangyang, they had a significant number of Sequence 7s!
Qi Xiangyang had long ago sensed that his breakthrough wouldn't go smoothly, so he had called back all the experts in the family early on and ordered them not to act no matter what until they received his signal!
Otherwise, those people would have moved to stop Black Feather and White Feather the moment they charged in.
One Sequence 7 after another rushed into the manor, their target clearly being the two sisters.
Their sequences might be lower, but as long as their opponents weren't Sequence 5, human wave tactics were still effective!
Only then did Qi Xiangyang emerge from the basement of the old house, looking extremely bizarre.
He wore a Thorn Crown on his head, its sharp thorns piercing through his flesh. Just looking at it made one’s scalp tingle.
His chest was bare, and his exposed skin was covered in black and red incantations.
But the most eye-catching thing was a loose outer garment stitched from the facial skin of young girls.
The hem of the garment fluttered in the wind, and it was as if the painful wails of those girls could still be heard.
“Ascending to godhood... it happens today!”
