<h4>Chapter 471: Crow Tengu</h4>
He still maintained his perspective, but it was now obviouslyced with some measure of uncertainty.
“You did what?” Mo Changhao instinctively thought that to be ridiculous, but soon capitted on second thoughts, “Actually… had I been in your shoes, I would’ve done the same as well.”
“What?!” Mo Changhao was startled again, “The albatross is dead? They’re true survivalists that never seem to perish in the line of duty. They’re elites in every right! How did they die?!”
They had unwittingly begun to specte and speak about their uncertainties.
“I don’t know.” Zhou Xianlong sighed, “Truth be told, I’ve kept a close watch over Little Qin over thest year or so. There’s no way he would have had any opportunities to execute his duties and functions as King Yanluo. But still… don’t you think that everything happening right now is far too coincidental?”
Zhou Xianlong turned around and gazed deeply at Mo Changhao, “Ever since enrollment, he’s only redeemed his merit points on one single asion. And do you know what he asked for? Neither treasures nor artifacts, but Yin spirit stones. It’s almost as though he can advance in his cultivation without putting in any effort at all.”
He got to his feet and began to pace about, “Have you heard about Valley County? Two Emissaries of Hell have shown up to broach the idea of interoperations between theherworld and the mortal realm!”
“And do you know what the top brass’ assessment of this matter is?” Zhou Xianlong turned around and recited their conclusion word for word, “The mannerism of speech and action of these two Emissaries of Hell tells us that they have an intimate understanding of the mortal realm… They definitely know everything that is happening in the mortal realm! In other words, Hell has an insider in the mortal realm!”
“That’s right. What a perfect coincidence.” Zhou Xianlong shook his head wearily, “Over thest month, we’ve escted this matter and been granted full authority to thoroughly investigate these coincidences.”
Mo Changhao shut his eyes.
Zhou Xianlong sighed, “The master of the Sword of the Yellow Emperor has emerged from reclusion.”
“That’s him.” Zhou Xianlong nced up at the ceiling wistfully, “He has personally instructed us to stand down. To his mind, it doesn’t matter whether Qin Ye is human, or if this is a mere coincidence, or otherwise. What’s more important is that it has already been two years since Qin Ye’s emergence in the cultivation realm. Anything he has set out to do would have already beenpleted, or at least be nearpletion. The fact that he’s not harmed the interests of the mortal realm in the slightest means that there’s no harm in letting the matter rest.”
Momentster, Zhou Xianlong continued hoarsely, “But… how do you expect me to let things rest like that?!”
He gazed deeply into Mo Changhao’s eyes, “And I’vee here precisely because I’m looking for answers.”
Mo Changhao could empathize with Zhou Xianlong’s feelings. It wasn’t an exaggeration to state that Qin Ye was absolutely outstanding. The rate of his cultivation growth was incredible. He was neither arrogant nor impatient, and had even propelled the First Academy of Cultivators into stardom with the publication of his paper. A talent like that would most certainly be the centre of attention of any institution around.
“I’ll render my fullest cooperation.”
The car slowly rumbled along the city’s main avenue.
It cruised along, whizzing past the regr cars around them with ease as it attracted a series of envious stares.
“Brother, I’m afraid this isn’t a local car.” The passenger behind the cab driver yawnedzily, “Earlier, while you were enthralled by the car, I managed to get a look at its license te. It’s just a series of numbers. I think it might be a car from Daehan.”
The supercar whizzed along the roads. The ss on both sides were tinted, and nobody was able to peer into the vehicle. Otherwise, they would have realized that the driver was in fact ady.
She was dressed in a dapper woman’s suit with an earphone stuffed into her ears. She wore a pair of exquisite earrings that were clearly encrusted with diamonds. Even the pendant on her chest was clearly carved from the most luxurious jade piece.
All eyes were on the supercar. If they could see past the tinted mirrors, they would realize that thedy was the only one in the car right now.
Just then, a red coloured hand suddenly reached out from behind her.
It looked like a human hand, but a closer inspection would reveal that there were only four fingers on the hand. Furthermore, the red hue wasn’t anything like the usual pink hue of the healthy human body. Rather… it appeared grisly, almost as though someone had been yed alive, revealing the scarlet muscles beneath the human skin!
“Head… east…”
Drip… There was the sound of a water dropletnding in the vehicle. Thedy immediately raised her brows without flinching in the slightest, “This car is very expensive…”
Lee Jung-sookpletely turned a blind eye to the presence of the wed hand. Instead, she simply flicked open her cigarette case, picked out her cigarette of choice, and then pulled out her diamond-encrusted lighter. Then, she lit up and took a deep drag of her favourite orange-scented cigarette, “Crow Tengu, ck Yaksha… I would be grateful if you could truly kill me and dispose of me for all eternity.”
The one on the left sported hideous appearances, with one eye and a mouth filled with canine teeth like a ferocious beast. His entire head was covered with white hair, while its body was covered with bloated veins. He wore an onmyoji’s cap over its head.
The other entity appeared far less daunting. However… he was a dog!
The head of the dog appeared no different from that of a human being. He wore the snow-white robes of an ancient hunter with a high ck hat. Soft strands of ck hair hung loosely by the sides of his head. He appearedpletely calm and cid - a stark contrast next to the ferocious creature beside him that appeared ready to explode in fury at any time! That said, the Yin energy emanating from the Inu Yaksha was far more terrifying than that of the Crow Tengu beside him!
“You’d best not be ying any tricks on us.” The Inu Yaksha crossed his legs and ran his razor-sharp ws along the windows of the car, emitting a hair-raising screech, “You might be immortal, but… immortals still feel pain…”
Bang!
Yet Lee Jung-sook wasn’t frazzled at all. She continued to chuckle softly, “But that also makes sense. After all, I’m the only one who can freely enter and exit the Array of the Nine Gods. Who else could you approach for help but I?”
“[in Nipponese] Fool! Stop!” ck Yaksha snapped as his entire body erupted with terrifying Yin energy. In an instant, his hair turned ck, and his eyes turned bloodshot, just like a hellish asura.
“Cough, cough…” Just then, Lee Jung-sook coughed softly. The eruption of Yin energy had caused the temperature within to suddenly dip, so much so that the interior of the vehicle was now covered with ayer of frost. Crow Tengu’s golden pupils narrowed slightly. Then, with a cold snort, he sat back down onto the rear seats.
The car continued driving into the outskirts of the city. The entire journeysted another twenty minutes before they finally stopped.
Lee Jung-sook was in attendance personally. Naturally, every single key Samsung personnel located in Eastmount had to be present as well!
Lee Jung-sook first put her slender, pale leg and her scarlet heels out of the car, and then with her head held high and a graceful poise, she finally stepped out.

1. So the author provides these details, but then goes on to talk about the car as though it’s a 4 seater. I’ll presume that this is one of Ferrari’s 4 seaters that have 949 horsepower in the parallel universe.
