Chapter 1375 Magic Trick
Lin Qiye frowned slightly: “Can you find their location?”
“My ‘fish seeds’ have already spread throughout Huaihai City, but besides the handbag, there’s no other way to identify members of the Ancient God Church. Before they make a move, it’s like looking for a needle in a haystack,” An Qingyu sighed.
“What about Pangpang and Cao Yuan? Where are they?”
“They’re both near the Huangpu River.”
“Have them guard the riverbank. If anyone tries to throw something into the river, stop them immediately.”
“Okay.”
Lin Qiye thought for a moment, “Also, Jiang Er should be able to track the locations of the other phone calls, right? Give me these locations, and I’ll follow the trail to deal with them before the situation worsens.”
“No problem.”
An Qingyu reported several addresses in succession. Lin Qiye memorized them and put away the radio.
He pressed his hand in the empty air, and Red Face, wearing a deep green caregiver uniform, appeared before him. “Director.”
“Red Face, take this handbag to An Qingyu immediately. Don’t reveal your true form in the city area, and try not to let others see you, understand?”
“Yes.”
Red Face took the handbag, transformed into a blur, and quickly disappeared into the alley.
Watching Red Face leave, Lin Qiye’s expression grew serious.
Eight signal sources dialing the same number meant there were at least eight members of the Ancient God Church here. Yiyu was dead, leaving seven more… Given enough time, it wouldn’t be difficult for Lin Qiye to track them down one by one, but the problem was that according to Li Qengqiang, less than half an hour remained before the disaster.
He wondered if there would be enough time…
Lin Qiye took a deep breath, transformed into a shadow of the night, and rapidly approached the nearest signal source.
…
By the Huangpu River.
Car horns and ship whistles mingled together. People dressed in lake blue or pure white clothes flowed along the riverbank. The calls of vendors from old shops along the street created a lively atmosphere throughout the Bund.
Among the flowing crowd, Baili Pangpang stood alone by the shore, looking down at the flowing river water below, his eyes slightly narrowed.
“This aura…”
“Pangpang, where are you now?”
The radio at his waist suddenly sounded, with An Qingyu’s voice coming through.
“I’m by the river in Pudong.”
“The Ancient God Church is suspected of planning to poison the Huangpu River. Keep an eye out. If anyone throws something into the water, stop them immediately!”
As An Qingyu finished speaking, Baili Pangpang’s brows immediately furrowed.
Looking at the flowing water below, he nodded decisively, “I understand.”
“Cao Yuan is on the other side of the river. He’ll handle that area. Communicate immediately if anything happens…”
Baili Pangpang was silent for a moment, but finally spoke up: “Qingyu.”
“What is it?”
“There’s something under the Huangpu River.”
“Something? What kind of thing?” An Qingyu’s voice sounded confused. “What did you discover?”
“I’m not sure exactly what it is, but there’s definitely something down there… and I can guarantee that this disaster is related to whatever’s down there.” Baili Pangpang took a deep breath, his voice extremely solemn. “I think we should gather at the riverbank as soon as possible.”
“…I understand. I’ll come over as soon as I finish things here,” An Qingyu said seriously.
The radio fell silent. Baili Pangpang hooked it back to his waist and continued walking along the riverbank, scanning his surroundings inch by inch, his vigilance at its peak.
Suddenly, a figure ghosted through his peripheral vision, passing through the rushing crowd to reach the railing by the river.
The figure was holding a black handbag.
He reached into the bag and took out a glass tube, seemingly casually tossing it. The tube traced an arc through the air, heading straight for the flowing river below!
Baili Pangpang’s pupils contracted. With no time to think, he quickly raised his hand and made a grasping motion in the air!
[Disarm All Things]!
Just as the glass tube was about to fall into the river, it suddenly froze, as if gripped by an invisible hand, then rapidly flew toward Baili Pangpang, landing firmly in his palm.
The figure who had thrown the glass tube, seeing this incredible sight, suddenly froze in place.
This feat of grabbing an object from thin air was witnessed by nearby pedestrians who were also admiring the river view. They were stunned at first, then reacted by applauding and cheering for Baili Pangpang by the riverbank:
“Great trick! Do another one!”
“That’s an amazing magic trick, how did you do it?”
“Probably has fishing line attached somewhere, but I couldn’t see any flaws in the execution. Very skilled!”
“Well done! You deserve a reward!”
“…”
People gathered around Baili Pangpang, asking him to perform again, with some even throwing coins in front of him. The lively scene attracted more and more pedestrians, their eyes filled with curiosity.
The distant figure who had thrown the glass tube realized he had been discovered. Without a word, he turned and rushed toward the buildings by the roadside.
Seeing this, Baili Pangpang quickly pushed through the crowd and rapidly pursued the figure!
After breaking through the crowd, a gleam flashed in Baili Pangpang’s eyes. A phantom image of a Taiji Bagua diagram flashed beneath his feet, and in the next moment, his form vanished from the spot.
Bang—!
The figure who had just rushed into a narrow, deserted road felt a gust of wind from behind. A foot struck heavily against his back, sending him staggering into the wall beside him.
“Ancient God Church?” Baili Pangpang coldly asked, holding the glass tube.
The Ancient God Church member, seeing that Baili Pangpang had caught up, revealed a vicious look in his eyes. A “Sea” level spiritual energy wave surged out frantically as he gripped a black fire blade sketched from nothingness, slashing a crescent through the air toward Baili Pangpang’s throat!
Beneath Baili Pangpang’s feet, the Taiji Bagua diagram flashed again. Before the black fire blade could touch his throat, it suddenly changed direction, instantly severing the man’s arm from the root!
“Gen Earth Binding!”
Baili Pangpang formed a hand seal, and before the figure could cry out in pain, black ropes burst from the ground, binding him tightly in an instant!
Under the pressure of Baili Pangpang’s “Klein” level spiritual power, the man had no strength to resist at all. His eyes looked at Baili Pangpang with terror, full of confusion and shock.
When did Squad 007 stationed in Huaihai gain another “Klein” level powerhouse besides their captain?!
Baili Pangpang twisted open the top of the glass tube, and a foul stench entered his nostrils. Enduring the nausea, he sniffed carefully for a moment, and anger rapidly rose from the depths of his eyes!
Crack—!
His palm suddenly exerted force, shattering the glass tube. The light red liquid flowed onto the ground, quickly evaporating and disappearing without a trace.
Baili Pangpang stared intently into his eyes and said grimly, “These beasts…”
