Chapter 176: Chapter 36 Emperor’s Blood Divine Abnormality
"No need, I can handle it myself."
An Jing had his own ideas.
To deal with the True Demon Sect and potentially stronger enemies behind them, like the Heavenly Demon and possessed followers, he must bring out all his strength.
And revealing his full power would surely attract attention from others, so he needed to conceal his appearance and have his own hidden weapons.
Concealing his appearance was easy, with a Bulletproof Poncho on and altering his aura, no one would recognize him.
However, hiding his weapons was more challenging.
An Jing’s true weapons were naturally the Blood Fiend Sword created by Coalescing Qi into Soldiers and the Sword Spear integrated into his body, but he would prefer not to use such telltale Divine Skills unless necessary.
Thereby, An Jing planned to enhance Mundane Martial Weapons with Divine Skill as his overt methods.
Take for example, the Mysterious Iron longsword from the Tianyuan Realm; its quality was much higher than ordinary weapons in the Embracing the Void Realm, almost qualifying as a Magic Artifact embryo. Once enhanced, it could even be comparable to some average Magic Artifacts.
Alloy shields, on the other hand, could defend against various hidden weapons including crossbows and arrows. As a defensive gear capable of blocking ordinary bullets and small Sword Boxes, its reliability far exceeded what most would expect.
In this regard, An Jing was always cautious.
As for the rest, pistols and Thunder Beads worked against common troops, Sword Boxes against formidable foes, and while Sword Boxes were energy-intensive, Icefall not only allowed for assassination but also reduced consumption with its nearly silent feature, making it an excellent opening move for stealth attacks.
"You will certainly manage."
After helping An Jing inventory his equipment, Huo Qing also believed in An Jing’s capabilities.
But as he prepared to go fetch the goods for An Jing, he still shook his head and said, "Still, I must tell you not to think about taking on many alone. Call for as much help as you can, at least to draw some attention away and cover your bases."
"I will."
An Jing smiled slightly; the reminder had struck a chord with him, bringing to mind an idea.
Indeed, he could report to the authorities!
Of course, this reporting wasn’t about naively going directly to them.
Given that Constable Chen was part of the True Demon Sect, or at the very least a contact point, it was clear that the officials of Ming City had already been compromised and were as porous as sieves.
If Shu Zheng were still present and the Heaven’s Will Demon Sect existed, Ming City, despite being a demon’s den, would only have broodlings at most. But now that the broodlings had left their nest, Ming City had turned into a cockroach nest, with Heavenly Demon Followers everywhere.
Reporting by himself would be utterly useless and could even alert the Chongyi Building, perhaps even leading them to him.
More importantly, he needed to gather evidence— to prove to the City Magistrate that what had entered the city was not from the Heaven’s Will Demon Sect but from the True Demon Sect.
"It seems I need to find a way to actively provoke the True Demon Sect into targeting me."
With this thought, An Jing already had a plan in mind: "Entice a portion of the True Demon Sect’s followers to make a move against me, then use them as a knock on the door to remind the City Magistrate—this way, even if there are many Heavenly Demon Followers within the government, I can at least hinder their control over the Earth Vein."
"It could also tie up many from the True Demon Sect, aiding my assassination plan against Chongyi Building."
An Jing pondered his next moves, while Huo Qing had everything prepared for him.
Even when fetching the ammunition, explosives, and Thunder Beads from the storeroom for An Jing, Huo Qing also brought him a piece of inner armor.
"Bulletproof Spiritual Garment."
He smiled at An Jing showing him: "While it may not significantly reduce the impact, it’s an additional layer of protection, and most importantly, it’s light and won’t hinder your movements."
"Good..."
Lifting his head, An Jing looked at the pure black bulletproof undergarment with a moment of surprise: "This is quite generous."
This type of lightweight Spiritual Garment is worth around one to two hundred Good Deeds; the best materials can even fetch a high price of over three hundred Good Deeds.
The one Huo Qing sent over must have been prepared by Iron Hand for him, a bit large for An Jing, but just as useful.
Without declining, An Jing nodded, reached out to accept it, and sincerely said to Huo Qing, "I won’t be polite, then."
Huo Qing waved his hand dismissively, "Just survive, that’s good."
There was no need for more words between them. As soon as the Spirit Qi Furnace was full, An Jing slipped out of the junkyard and silently returned to the Embracing the Void Realm through the Wilderness.
The sooner he returned, the sooner the Great Void Passage would begin to cool down. An Jing was about to act against the True Demon Sect, naturally, he didn’t need to stay in the Tianyuan Realm for too long.
Having hidden all his equipment well, he placed them in a private room at the tea shop.
An Jing stepped outside, and the skies were filled with silvery blossoms, with the snow growing heavier.
Kanming City had arrived at the pre-dawn hours, but apart from the slightly lit underlayer of the clouds, the entire city was dark as if it were deep into the night.
The aftereffects of Frost Calamity were nearing.
Feeling the familiar cold wind, the familiar chill, An Jing felt no fear.
Having mastered Martial Skills and possessing many powerful Magic Artifacts, he would not be defeated by nature.
So, would he still be defeated by the followers of the Heavenly Demon?
Absolutely not. Definitely not!
However, just as An Jing was preparing to leave to scout Chongyi Building,
He turned his head, raised an eyebrow, and looked toward the tea shop entrance.
There, a veiled girl had gently opened the door and stood before An Jing.
She was slender, not very tall, only reaching up to An Jing’s chest, but it was clear that this was only due to her age. The girl had hair as soft as crow feathers, black and long, trailing down to her waist, which against the falling snow covering Kanming City, appeared even more profound and mysterious.
Yet, what stood out the most were the girl’s eyes.
Ordinary people’s eyes are white with brownish-black pupils, and although ancient bloodlines or mixed Demon Spirit heritage could cause variations, the whites of their eyes are usually white.
But the whites of this girl’s eyes were a deep, profound black, with only the pupil in the center shining bright as Merging Gold, clearly showing a Divine Abnormality.
With Mysterious Yang eyes and Golden Sun pupils... the Emperor’s Blood Divine Abnormality, the "Mysterious Yang Eye"!
"Hello."
She seemed a bit nervous, clutching the front of her dress tightly with one hand, but when she saw An Jing turn his head, she seemed to make up her mind and calmed down, "I have something... I need to talk to you about."
"You’re the one that old lady wanted to hide." An Jing didn’t remain silent; he gave her a once-over and nodded, "If that’s the case, why come out?"
"...I told the old lady that you had already noticed my presence," the girl was silent for a moment before she calmly said, "But the old lady said it’s fine, that you are a good person and would pretend not to know."
Her voice was like the song of nightingales in a serene mountain wilderness, so pleasant it hardly seemed of this world. Even the Sword Spirit, which usually didn’t pay attention to An Jing’s interactions with others, focused, "This voice... is it ’Immortal Sound’?"
"An Jing, this girl might possess Immortal God lineage, born with Divine Abnormalities. She naturally holds the ’Huaxian Sound’ Divine Abnormality."
"Understood," An Jing sighed. The moment she stepped out, revealing her unique eyes, he put together the information he had gathered from Magistrate Zheng, and guessed her identity.
——Emperor’s Blood.
The one being sought after by both the authorities and the True Demon Sect from Da Chen, was her!
