Chapter 578: Chapter 288 Going Home_2

Tao Linlin suggested, "Is there a possibility? Your uncle and aunt were planning to go to the Holy City to see you, but before they could leave, they were taken away?"

Long Dangdang shook his head, "That doesn’t seem likely. If that were the case, they would’ve asked for leave from the Priests Temple before leaving. Besides, there’s no way they would tidy up the house so thoroughly without leaving. No matter how you look at it, none of these possibilities seems reasonable. The only logical explanation is that they packed up their belongings without telling anyone and quietly left the city on their own, somehow disappearing."

Yes, from the clues that can be found so far, Long Dangdang’s analysis is the most reasonable. But why would they do this? There seems absloutly no reasonable reason for them to act like this!

For a moment, their thoughts were at a deadlock. But regarding this situation, Long Dangdang had already anticipated it before he returned. If a case that even the Temple Headquarters couldn’t solve was cracked by them so easily, then the Temple Headquarters was too useless.

"Don’t rush, let’s calmly think it through. Or maybe we could ask their friends they knew prior if there were any signs," Ling Menglu suggested.

Long Dangdang grinned bitterly, "The Temple Headquarters have already investigated these aspects in their report. The conclusion is that nobody knew that they were leaving and there were no signs prior. This is really too strange."

Long Kongkong had also calmed down by now, "No matter what, people cannot just vanish into thin air!"

After a couple of days of contemplation, Long Dangdang’s mood had somewhat settled, "Everyone has come from afar, let’s go and have a meal first. Then, I’ll go to the Priests Temple to inquire about my father’s recent whereabouts to see if I can find any clues."

With nothing at home, they naturally had to go out for a meal. Not far from the Long family, there was a restaurant where they often went to when they were young, Long Leilei and Ling Xue often took their younger brothers there.

Walking out the front door, carefully closing it, Long Dangdang paused for a moment before turning towards his companions.

However, what none of them expected was the sudden appearance of a dark green glow above their heads, without any warning. Long Dangdang instinctively looked up, and everyone else followed suit.

In that split second, two dark green lights shot out from the glow, landing squarely on Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong.

The change happened too fast for anyone to react. Ling Menglu let out a yell and, without hesitation, activated her Divine Hammer of Light. A wave of orange light surged forward, targeting the dark green glow.

However, all of this was futile, a powerful force easily deflected the Divine Hammer of light, and both Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong bodies were suddenly enveloped by the dark-green light, before vanishing into the glow.

Everyone’s faces paled as they attacked the dark green glow. At the same moment, three overwhelmingly powerful auras appeared in the distance, quickly approaching.

Both Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong felt dizzy. Just as they were being lifted, the only thing Long Dangdang could do was reach out and grab his brother’s hand.

Long Kongkong instinctively activated his Elemental Vortex Spirit Furnace. To his surprise, it actually absorbed the spiritual power, and the amount of power was even comparable to when they devoured the Demon God in the Demon Crystal.

Previously, they had had significant gains in the Devil Realm, and before this return, at Long Dangdang’s request, Long Kongkong had filtered and transformed the energy they had absorbed. But the problem was, this filtering and transformation didn’t make Long Kongkong advance in ranks.

Long Kongkong’s inner and outer spiritual power had already reached the peak 6th rank, and in theory, his breakthrough to the 7th rank should have been a natural progression. However, for some unknown reason, when he began absorbing spiritual power to make the breakthrough, his body seemed to be restrained by something, as if a high wall stood in front of him that he couldn’t cross over, no matter what. He had failed to break through despite several attempts.

Long Dangdang originally hoped that Long Kongkong would also break through to the 7th rank to enhance their security. However, he did not expect Long Kongkong to be unable to break through. Neither he nor Ling Menglu were able to help Long Kongkong find the reason. The only explanation now seemed to be that Long Kongkong was also affected by the Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace. Or perhaps, as twins, they had to break through together?

Because of their parents’ situation, they didn’t have time to ponder these problems too much and had to return to Soaring Dragon City first. The biggest beneficiary from last time was undoubtedly Vast Ocean. The Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace, now replenished with as much as 85,000 spiritual power, was undergoing further repairs. Not only had its Different Means Same Goal ability fully recovered, but it also began to exhibit some other capabilities.

At that moment, suddenly being drawn in by this sudden force, Long Kongkong naturally activated his Touch of the Abyss to its full extent immediately. Weakening the enemy was the best way to strengthen himself. Without Long Dangdang having to control it, the Clear Moon Vast Ocean Spirit Furnace immediately sprang into action, combining with Long Kongkong, and bearing the overwhelming spiritual power that he could not accommodate.

But this process only lasted for one second. The very next moment, everything around them had changed.

They found themselves in a dark green world filled with oppressive feelings. After Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong’s bodies were drawn in, they felt as if they were floating in mid-air, with great pressure coming from all directions. They had to fully stimulate their spiritual power, just to ensure they could move.

Long Dangdang held Long Kongkong’s hand, feeling the spiritual power he transferred. The devouring effect of Touch of the Abyss was still in place, absorbing at an astonishing rate the bizarre power that bound them.

And then, a figure slowly approached them from a distance.

It was a woman, clad in dark green armor, with a slender, straight figure. But her complexion was an abnormal pale white, and her eyes were a grayish brown. She clearly wasn’t human.

In her right hand she held a grayish-white longsword that looked like it had been carved from bone. With every step she took, the space around her trembled slightly.

Undead! A chill ran through Long Dangdang’s heart.

They had even speculated earlier, wondering if their parents had left voluntarily and where they might have gone. This sudden appearance of an undead seemingly brought all speculation back to square one, but for Long Dangdang and Long Kongkong, now was not the time to consider these things. Because now, the first thing they had to do was to survive from her attack.

Without any hesitation, Long Dangdang activated his contract space. Luckily, the weird space they were in didn’t affect the activation of the contract space, and both Little Evil and Little Eight were released.

Long Kongkong also activated his contract space, and the Rat King, now so fat that it was the size of a water tank, scrambled out. This time, it didn’t waste any words, clearly sensing the deadly threat Long Kongkong was facing. As far as it was concerned, the influence of the blood pact required it to live and die with Long Kongkong. Naturally, it couldn’t let Long Kongkong die! If that happened, it would be finished too.

"Who are you?" Long Dangdang asked in a deep voice. His body was lifted by Little Eight, and their bloodline connections made the oppressive force around them seem to lighten a bit.

The undead woman stared at him but did not answer his question. The next moment, a ghostly white sword light lunged at Long Dangdang.

Long Dangdang did not back away. In this situation, backing away meant death. The fact that the opponent could attack them here demonstrated her strength. Indeed, she was a 9th rank undead warrior, who had been a warrior known as Sword Saint before her demise.
