Chapter 706: Chapter 79 The Killer is An Xuan

Consuming what you value most at will, using what you can’t touch the most as a bargaining chip, employing any means necessary, rightful or not, to achieve your own ends, everything is outcome-oriented.

This is the operational model of the group.

[We are sorry]

Soon, Nian Quan’s account stopped Sending messages, but a random number account added Nian Quan as a friend and began to message: [Just to prove that we are indeed comrades-in-arms of your mother]

——Comrades-in-arms? More like employers.

Just through this message and means, Nian Quan could confirm that the person contacting him through his mother’s account was definitely the group company, and indeed the one his mother truly served.

Based on the intelligence analysis obtained from An Jing’s side, his mother, as an employee of Little Heshan, served the Shouyang Mountain Group, while also receiving ’extra earnings,’ which was evident from the Lianshan Group’s storage card in her possession.

Of course, possessing a Lianshan Group card doesn’t mean she served the Lianshan Group. However, since Nian Quan’s target is Luofu, and he uses the identity of Shouyang Mountain Group as a cover, with a true serving motive in the background, then this power is either Xuandu or Lianshan.

The reason this power suddenly approached him is clearly because they saw him getting close to An Jing and his mother having connections with them, thinking they could leverage his mother’s connections to build a relationship with him.

So, would he go?

Only a fool would!

Nian Quan wanted to block that account and say exactly that.

If he were alone, he would definitely not go. Facing a calculating group alone is fraught with risks. Although the group wouldn’t likely attempt to kill him, such as kidnapping a college genius in Luofu Group’s hometown—breaking the unspoken rules—they definitely have many ’methods’, which Nian Quan might not be able to resolve even if he discovers them.

But now, he is not alone.

These people came for An Jing.

Nian Quan is well aware that his past value, though gradually increasing, was never enough to make them take the risk of contacting him.

If they wanted to contact, they could have reached out during the time he emerged with the Heavenly River Sword Skills after his mother’s death.

Now, contacting after An Jing’s major success, their purpose is too apparent.

"Third garbage disposal plant..."

Exhaling a breath, Nian Quan fell silent for a moment, thinking, sent several delayed messages, and then headed towards the Floating Dust Plains.

Regardless, at least to know, how many powers are currently observing An Jing and himself.

And, no lying.

He indeed wanted to know what bizarre truths could come out of the mouths of these corporate dogs.

Floating Dust Plains, third garbage disposal plant.

Cultivators have yet to become Immortal Gods, they are naturally also human. The garbage produced daily by Xuanye City is mountainous and oceanic, most of which can be recycled; hundreds of thousands of recycling huts select recyclable parts, and the remaining hard-to-recycle materials require garbage processing.

Purification, incineration, dissociation, crushing, precipitation, saturation, compression... the enormous and square garbage processing plant stands tall on an Earth Pulse Node, like the coffin of Giant Gods, its black walls like the palaces of Underworld, majestic and towering, turning all matter into equal ashes.

Nian Quan arrived at a vacant area of the third garbage disposal plant, where a large amount of dark wastewater flows. This highly corrosive toxic water, containing massive amounts of Demonic Qi and Calamity Qi, could only be purified little by little over time and releases terrifying toxins that could corrupt the human body. A small fraction of it rises into the sky, intensifying the Fiend Cloud’s acidic corrosiveness.

Nian Quan stood on this black water, ice-blue ripples spreading like water waves, gradually extending a white frost trace.

Looking around, he saw no one, but he wasn’t anxious or rushed, instead calmly stating, "There’s no need for mystification, speak plainly."

As he spoke, the black water surged, rising up into a pure water humanoid.

This scene slightly narrowed Nian Quan’s eyes—a gesture he had learned from An Jing to mask his true thoughts. He indeed was surprised because, with Nian Quan’s talent, he could perceive that an expert had intricately separated ’pure water’ and ’toxins’ from the poisonous water using a highly subtle Water Element skill, using it as raw material to construct their own body.

This level of skill could truly be called divine, illustrating the idea of ’skill becomes the method, method approaches the principle,’ hence being known as ’Divine Skill’.

This is at least a Purple Mansion.

"What is the truth?"

He asked.

[Since you have come, naturally we will tell you]

The face of the water-being, devoid of features, displayed a curve of a smile. With a wave of its hand and standing at the center, the dark water receded, leaving only clear water to form a seat. It gestured for Nian Quan to sit down: [We know, after your mother died, you obtained the Sword Intent and then soared high into the skies, becoming the hot new-generation genius of Xuanye City, with your own channels of information. We cannot lie to you, for you would discern the truth.]

[You are qualified to know the true situation, and we will tell you everything plainly.]

Thus speaking, the water form smiled again: [Everything stems from a divine object from the Ancient Dao Court Era, the ’Heavenly Mystery to Unity Guardianship True Talisman’, which was one of the Heavenly Dao Divine Talismans from long ago, presiding over the Path of Life and capable of reaching through the heavens.]

[Even if the Heavenly Dao underwent drastic changes, it is still shattered and its effectiveness is less than a ten-thousandth of its full potential, yet it remains a treasure that can move the True Lord.]

The water-being didn’t hide or speak nonsense but directly informed Nian Quan of their side’s ’truth.’

In ancient times, during the periods of world calamities, to combat the Heavenly Demons, various inheritances of Primordial Spirits and Immortal Gods on earth joined hands in preparing many plans, among which the Heavenly Profound True Talisman was one. Although the majority of these plans failed, those artifacts crafted by all Immortal Gods and inheritances still possessed incredible powers and privileges.

Over a hundred years ago, the Luofu Group, utilizing the most advanced Great Void techniques, detected the forthcoming return of the Ancient Immortal Ruins. They prepared beforehand, such as developing the Floating Dust Plains on a large scale, constructing Chonggang Town at the original entrance, and intent on continuing to develop the Wilderness to bring the entrance at North Lake Swamp of Cloud City also under their control.

This intention to monopolize the Ancient Immortal Ruins was discovered and hindered by other groups, thus the development of the North Lake Swamp District failed, and even the development actions targeting the Wilderness areas around Xuanye City concerning the Floating Dust Plains repeatedly failed.

Decades ago, when the Ancient Immortal Ruins intersected with the Tianyuan Realm, Luofu seized the initiative, sending an elite squad to explore it first. However, as a core Cave Heaven of the Ancient Dao Court, the Ancient Immortal Ruins had been entirely remodeled, with its various daoist rules and regulations completely different from those of the Tianyuan Realm. Additionally, it was extremely strict in demonic energy detection, not allowing even a trace of Demonic Qi to pass through certain checkpoints.

Apart from this, some more core facilities would classically suppress the entrants’ powers, so even if one forcibly cracked open the doors, upon entering, the power of the Cave Heaven would suppress their movements completely.

Only those with core privileges could enter with their original power intact.

"The Heavenly Profound True Talisman is such a privilege."

Nian Quan whispered softly, understanding what the Water Man wanted to say: "It is a treasure jointly crafted by the Immortal Gods and All Mountains inheritances from the Ancient Times, possessing the highest level of Great Dao privileges. With it, one could freely enter and exit those facilities."

[That is true, but it’s not just that,]

The water-being said: [You underestimate the group too much. As the legitimate inheritors of the Tianyuan Realm from the Ancient Dao Court, we hold numerous Great Dao privileges in our hands... However, within the Ancient Immortal Ruins, there exists a group of inheritors who are the ’Pure Land People’ opposing us]

[They are the original inhabitants of the Ancient Immortal Ruins, or rather, the descendants of the technical staff from the Beitian Shipyard back then. They do not wish to cooperate with us to jointly develop the Ancient Immortal Ruins and restore the glory of the Dao Court. They put obstacles on many Great Dao privileges]

[However, part of the privileges of the Heavenly Profound True Talisman also stems from them—unless they seal it themselves, they cannot block the Heavenly Profound True Talisman]

[Of course, relying on this alone is not enough to counter the Pure Land People in terms of privileges, but at least, with it, we have an additional bargaining chip in negotiations]

Nian Quan fell silent for a moment, then slightly nodded: "So, Luofu retrieved this True Talisman from the Ancient Dao Court ruins, and when they brought it to Xuanye City, you took action."

"The True Talisman was stolen; that is the true cause of the great chaos in Xuanye City at that time. The person who obtained the Heavenly Profound True Talisman wanted to escape but was blocked."

"Among them, a suspect fled into the black market of Xuanye City, and Sky Surveillance Bureau conducted a sweep of the black market. My mother died in that operation."

"You are saying, Xuanye City is my enemy, aren’t you?"

[No]

The water-being raised its hand, shaking a finger: [To be honest, it was not Sky Surveillance Bureau who killed your mother—or rather, not entirely. She was indeed injured by the aftermath, which led to her death, but there was someone else who actually killed her]

Pausing for a moment, it seemed to want to leave a suspense, but seeing Nian Quan silently watching, it shook its head: [The conflict is very复杂, I can explain our onAnimationFrame to you later]

[Now, to put it simply, we suspect that An Xuan obtained the Heavenly Profound True Talisman]

[He is very suspicious; he took the Heavenly Profound True Talisman from your mother]

[It was An Xuan who killed your mother]
