Chapter 769: Chapter 770 Enemy Tracks_1

"Strange..."

Having finally sent those people and Ghost Series Spirit Beasts away, Feng Yuan embraced Xiao Ji as he stepped into Foreyn Manor once more, yet at this moment he noticed something was amiss.

"What’s wrong?"

"It seems something isn’t quite right here..."

"It’s as if something to do with the spatial level has happened before..."

Feng Yuan was somewhat puzzled, as Qi Chen glanced at Xiao Ji in Feng Yuan’s arms and said

"Why are you carrying it? Aren’t you afraid it would be drawn into the Netherworld?"

"How could that be! Xiao Ji may be a Death-type Spirit Beast, but it is not susceptible to the pull of the Netherworld’s power, and it wouldn’t be happy left outside either."

Feng Yuan said with a dissatisfied curl of his lips, while Dou Yanlan, surveying the Foreyn estate which was continuously eroded by Netherworld forces, said

"There’s something off about that man called Li Gui."

"This spatial overlay isn’t man-made, although I don’t know what exactly happened, I can be sure that the culprit who caused all this isn’t here."

"Didn’t you notice he was paying attention to you?"

Dou Yanlan looked at Feng Yuan somewhat perplexed, and upon hearing Dou Yanlan’s words, Feng Yuan was stunned for a moment and said

"What?"

"That person seemed to be paying attention to you, and I believe you hadn’t met him before."

"Right, he was paying attention to me... Is it because of Xiao Ji, or..."

"Could it be those people?"

Agunas suggested, and after a moment of thought, Feng Yuan shook his head and said

"Not sure, if that’s the case then we’re in trouble; he seems to know about the things from before the guardian wars, his identity is not simple at all..."

"Hasn’t the connection point arrived yet?"

Feng Yuan looked at Little Green Snake somewhat puzzled; with a flick of its tail tip on its head, the Little Green Snake looked around and hissed, pointing in a direction with the tip of its tail, as Agunas translated

"That way, not too far away."

"There, huh... We must hurry, or else it’ll become troublesome to separate it again if we delay too long."

"Is that..."

Agunas exclaimed in surprise, looking at the huge Black Mist in front of him, inside which was a ferocious hunting-dog-like creature, Feng Yuan said, puzzled

"The Netherworld’s guardian, how could this thing be here?"

"The Netherworld?!"

"That’s not something you can deal with."

Feng Yuan quickly pulled Xiao Ji to the side, retreating while taking out the Dark Ancient Book. As if sensing the presence of living beings, the hunting dog within the Black Mist violently spewed out a jet-black flame.

"Impossible, to have no effect?"

Seeing the barrier he laid out with a wave of his hand being burnt through without any resistance, Agunas was somewhat astonished. Dou Yanlan, pulling Qi Chen, quickly ran towards the back. Watching Agunas trying to confront the creature, Feng Yuan stopped him in haste, saying

"Don’t try! Your true self might barely be able to handle it, but this avatar of yours can’t confront it at all."

As he spoke, Feng Yuan tossed the Dark Ancient Book into the sky, as golden characters turned into chains, shooting out in all directions. A long, ancient dragon roar sounded, the sky ripped open a large gap, and an ice-blue Eastern Giant Dragon, burning with blue flames, slowly emerged from the breach.

With the arrival of the giant dragon, the Netherworld’s guardian suddenly stopped its attack and trembled, the huge body of the dragon coiling around the guardian. The dragon hummed a low chant, and after a while, as it rose into the sky again, the Netherworld’s guardian had vanished without a trace.

"Go check carefully. I don’t believe that thing would appear here for no reason; surely someone has sneaked in."

Feng Yuan said to the dragon in the sky, which nodded slightly and drifted into the breach, disappearing from view. The golden chains shattered into golden characters that slowly descended.

Packing up the Dark Ancient Book, Feng Yuan looked at Agunas and said

"How could something like this happen and you all didn’t notify me at all?"

"You mean to say... that thing was..."

"How could we possibly recognize that thing!"

Agunas said exasperatedly, admitting that they could not possibly recognize a creature from the Yin World. However, the fact that a creature from the Yin World had appeared in the Yang World made Agunas feel uneasy. Glancing at Qi Chen and Dou Yanlan, it asked,

"How could something from there appear here?"

"I don’t know, that’s why I had it investigate. If nothing’s found, then fine, but if it does find something and doesn’t deal with it, wouldn’t that be asking for trouble?"

"Is it... taken care of?"

Seeing the golden characters sinking into the ground dispersing the black mist and restoring the surroundings to their original state, Qi Chen asked curiously. Shaking his head, Feng Yuan replied,

"No, the power of the Netherworld has only been temporarily dispersed. If we don’t hurry now to deal with the connection point, then it will be troublesome as the Spirit Beasts of the Netherworld might escape."

"Because the environment has disappeared?"

Dou Yanlan mused, knowing that the place had always appeared shrouded in a ghostly aura before, but now it had regained vitality. Although it still didn’t look all that great, that was only because it was a ghost house. It wouldn’t make sense for a ghost house to be bursting with vibrant flowers and shrubbery, as restoring that state after changes would be troublesome.

The sight of the garden previously blooming with flowers that everyone had seen was just an illusion created using a kind of phantasm technique; in fact, the garden had always been withered.

"Oh my! What is that! They’re not in danger, are they?"

Outside the overlapping area, Yun You followed Granny Mianlan patrolling around to prevent anyone from accidentally trespassing. Feng Yuan had warned that during the disconnection of the point, nobody else should break in. He couldn’t guarantee that intruders wouldn’t be pulled into the Netherworld by its power.

There were simply too many dangerous areas within the Netherworld. Even Captain Yan dared not assure his own safety if he were inside the Netherworld, thus everyone was on edge, terrified that some daredevil would trespass recklessly.

It just happened to be the time when the giant dragon appeared, and Yun You, seeing the dragon enveloped in pale blue flames in the sky, grew concerned about the safety of Feng Yuan and others.

"No worries, Agunas is still with him, and he seems to be quite familiar with these matters. There shouldn’t be any accidents..."

Granny Mianlan tried to reassure Yun You, although she herself knew that her words had many loopholes; she couldn’t think of anything better to say at the moment.

"Lorraine Tower, huh..."

Looking up at the dragon in the sky, Li Gui spoke with an unfathomable expression. Granny Mianlan glanced at Li Gui and said,

"No, Lorraine Tower is a giant dragon with huge wings, more similar to the dragon type Divine Beasts of Omeilia. This one looks more like Gitalien, but it’s definitely not them."

Granny Mianlan and Yun You, who had spent years in Maomu City, knew what Lorraine Tower and Gitalien looked like, but Li Gui, who had just returned, was not aware.

"What about Selta? Why don’t I see him?"

Granny Mianlan changed the subject. Li Gui replied with a hint of helplessness,

"He said he still had some procedures to finish, after all, isn’t this estate registered under his name?"

"Are you still holding a grudge against him?"

"No..."

"Then why did you do that? Although I have no idea how you came to know about it, I’m certain you did it on purpose!"

Granny Mianlan said somewhat angrily to Li Gui, who remained silent but locked eyes firmly with Granny Mianlan. With a sigh, she gave in and said,

"I was against telling you about it in the first place. I knew it would come to this..."

"It’s in the well? Do we need to go down?"

Feng Yuan looked at the dried-up well in front of him with some astonishment and asked Little Green Snake. The Little Green Snake shook its head and hissed something in response.

"It’s telling you to be careful, to not let the power of the Netherworld pull you in. It can start dealing with the connection point here now."

After thinking it over, Feng Yuan took out the Dark Ancient Book and handed it to Agunas, saying,

"I’ll trouble you with this."

Agunas rolled its eyes, flicked the Dark Ancient Book vigorously, and a series of golden characters surrounded Feng Yuan and the others, protecting them within. Big Cat seemed to find the object fascinating and meowed curiously as if saying something. Feng Yuan picked up Pomiti, who was on Big Cat’s head, and held it close.

Although Pomiti had been well-behaved throughout the journey, Feng Yuan was still worried it might run off. Theoretically, it wasn’t the kind of Spirit Beast that would be dragged by the power of the Netherworld, but now they were too close to the connection point. Who knew what accidents might happen?

"Let’s begin."

Feng Yuan glanced at Qi Chen and the others then nodded to the Little Green Snake. Xiao Ji clung tightly to Feng Yuan’s feet, vigilantly surveying the surroundings, while the Little Green Snake’s tail brushed the void, causing ripples to spread.

"Is it starting?"

Lorraine Tower, while patrolling, detected an unknown power surge not belonging to Gitalien’s Space Divine Beast and murmured to itself.
