Volume 1 The Beginning of Chaos Chapter 197 Trapped in the Night Visit
With a rough judgment of the enemy's current situation, the work of the investigation team has become simpler, on the one hand, it has sent people to search for the remaining traces of demons on Elysium, and on the other hand, it has sent more people to explore everywhere, and carried out a dragnet search work, believing that this demon who has already appeared will have nowhere to escape in a short time.
The result was very disappointing, and it took more than half a year, but the investigation team could not find even the slightest clue, and even made people wonder if the other party had already fled elsewhere and deliberately used some unknown means to interfere with the investigation methods of the General Administration.
This possibility does exist, but it does not help much in the current situation, and the General Directorate, in addition to strengthening the vigilance of other sub-bureaus, can only order the investigation team to continue to maintain the status quo and intensify the search until the whereabouts of the other party are found, after all, from the current situation, there is no other way to think of it.
Just when the investigation team was at a loss, Mu Bai's strange promotion path gradually entered everyone's field of vision, as the only fairy demon who had faced the demon race in the present world, any situation about Mu Bai could not be easily let go by the investigation team, let alone such a big incident!
It's a pity that the investigation team didn't find too much suspiciousness after a series of investigations, Mu Bai's strength is already good, although he has shown amazing combat power in the competition, but in the eyes of the staff of the Paradise Pavilion, there is nothing to be suspicious.
In terms of work, Mu Bai can also be called diligent, for more than a year, he has never stepped out of the Paradise Pavilion for half a step, and has received praise from many fairies and demons, both fame and communication skills are impeccable, and it is not worth saying anything to be able to become the new owner of the Paradise Pavilion.
Although after some investigation by the investigation team, it was confirmed that there was nothing suspicious on Mu Bai's body, but Shang Bodong didn't think so, and his intuition told him that there must be some problems that had not been discovered, and Mu Bai's body was definitely not so clean!
Out of his intuition accumulated over the years of handling cases, Shang Bodong immediately put the breakthrough in finding the demon clan on Mu Bai's body, and then asked Yun Lan about Mu Bai.
It's a pity that Yun Lan's understanding of Mu Bai is only on the surface, although these initial impressions can also be used to confirm the information obtained by the investigation team, but they failed to let Shang Bodong get anything useful from it, so he had no choice but to go out to explore Mu Bai's reality in person!
Although the change of ownership of the Elysium Pavilion is not a big deal for the forces of all parties, it can be regarded as a new thing worth mentioning within the scope of Ancheng, and the attention of the immortals and demons around Ancheng has not completely dissipated, so Shang Bodong can only carefully cover his whereabouts so as not to be seen.
It is also a subordinate institution of the Heavenly Court, and the status of the Immortal Demon Administration Bureau is not weaker than that of the Four Seas Dragon Palace, and even more so in terms of authority, although the Ancheng Branch is only one of the many sub-bureaus, it is far superior to a gray organization like the Paradise Pavilion.
Shang Bodong, the director of the Ancheng Branch, is too high to visit the island openly, otherwise it will not be Shang Bodong's own face that will be lost, but the face of the entire Ancheng Branch and even the Fairy and Demon Administration.
It stands to reason that this kind of private investigation work, Shang Bodong should not have done it himself, but it is related to the traces of the demon clan, and it is not good to fake it, if you ask the investigation team to re-investigate, there is a suspicion that you can't trust the other party's ability, after all, the previous investigation results have been placed there, and Shang Bodong can't do too much.
It is not difficult for Shang Bodong to change his face, after dressing up, if he is not a person with unique skills, it is really not an easy thing to see through Shang Bodong's disguise at a glance.
Quietly went to the island, Shang Bodong was not in a hurry to find Mu Bai's whereabouts, and walked aimlessly, this was the first time he came to the Paradise Pavilion, and he also wanted to see what was unique about the rumored "Fairy Demon Paradise"!
"Your Excellency, the director is so Yaxing, it's just a bit incomprehensible to change his appearance and land on the island in the middle of the night, if such an act is spread, wouldn't it be undignified?"
As soon as he landed on the island, Shang Bodong was keenly aware of the visitor's gaze, but the other party was just a touch of it, and when he couldn't figure out the doorway of the Paradise Pavilion, Shang Bodong didn't care too much, and thought that every guest on the island would be probed, so he could get to the bottom of it.
It's just that as soon as the person who came opened his mouth, Shang Bodong noticed that something was wrong, not only because the other party was able to reveal his identity in one bite, but also because the breath on the person who came was a little dark and obscure, and just by the tone, he could judge that the other party was probably not good!
"If I'm not mistaken, you should be Mu Bai, right?"
There was a layer of pitch-black mist around the person who came, and Shang Bodong's eyes could only faintly see the silhouette of the other party's figure through the fog, but a feeling of no reason made Shang Bodong guess the identity of the other party in an instant!
"I've long heard that the director of the Anseong Branch is not a good stubble, I didn't expect it to be so powerful, it seems that my decision is right, even if I risk being exposed, I have to keep you here tonight!"
As the words fell, the fog around the person gradually dissipated, and a handsome man with fluttering clothes appeared in front of Shang Bodong, his eyes full of murderous intent.
Although Shang Bodong had not seen Mu Bai with his own eyes, he also knew that the face of the person in front of him was not Mu Bai, and after seeing this, his brows furrowed slightly, and he said with some puzzlement: "Since you have taken the initiative to show your body, why don't you show your true face, it's time like this, is it possible that there are any other concerns?"
"Worried? It seems that I still looked at you highly, I thought that my whereabouts had been discovered, but I didn't expect it to be just crooked! It's been so long, and I haven't even figured out what the person you're looking for looks like, it's really disappointing!"
The words of the person made Shang Bodong's face change suddenly, but he thought clearly about the cause and effect of the matter in an instant, and the demon clan after losing his flesh was like a toothless tiger, and rebirth was the best way for the other party to recuperate.
The investigation team is also very aware of this, and regards it as the top priority in the process of pulling the net to investigate, and any fairy demon within the scope of Anseong has not escaped this kind of investigation, but he didn't expect to be defeated under the light!
didn't try to capture the other party, in the face of a demon clan who had been planning for a long time, Shang Bodong did not have the absolute certainty of victory, rather than taking the risk of fighting, it was better to leave and then make another plan, even if the demon clan whose identity was exposed, no matter how strong it was, it was not to be afraid!
Although the idea is correct, but since the other party dares to appear in front of Shang Bodong, he must have been fully prepared, from the moment he started to seize Mu Bai, Xiao has never relaxed his vigilance, and becoming the new master of the Paradise Pavilion through Mu Bai's identity is the most important part of the plan!
The rising black fog covered the sky and the sun, and it was only in an instant that the entire island was completely buried, and one after another lost shadows walked out of the island, and without hesitation, the power in the body was exerted and integrated into the clouds in the sky, which immediately made Shang Bodong feel breathless.
The scene in front of him made Shang Bodong's mood like falling into an ice cave, without taking a closer look, the situation on the island can be seen in full view, the year-long operation is enough for the other party to extend the tentacles to the entire Bliss Pavilion, no wonder the investigation team has found nothing, in the face of a group of puppets who are completely obedient to the orders of the demon clan, it would be really strange if they could still find evidence against Mu Bai!
was in a desperate situation, but Shang Bodong did not choose to give up, how many times he gritted his teeth and survived the life and death moments, although this time was thrilling, it was not the most dangerous one!
A golden light emerged from the surface of Shang Bodong's body, and in the face of the heavy pressure that constantly attacked him, the golden light did not flinch at all, and in a moment's effort, he shrouded the rest of Shang Bodong's body, completely isolating the golden light inside and outside into two worlds.
Xiao's face was a little ugly, the nature of this golden light was extremely strange, it seemed to be as thin as paper, but it was unharmed under the pouring of the demon cloud, and several attempts ended in failure, in exchange for only a faint ridicule on Shang Bodong's face.
"Don't be too complacent, this golden light can protect you for a while, but it can't protect you for a lifetime, if you are not mistaken, this characteristic of isolating space also needs demonic power to support, as long as you are trapped here and constantly consumed, sooner or later it will still be a dead end!"
Although the strength of the owl is not one in ten due to some special reasons, his vision will not decline because of this, just a little look can see Shang Bodong's embarrassing situation, and he sneered without saltiness, his eyes were full of coldness.
"You're right, but with the level of attack just now, if I want to exhaust my demon power, it will take at least ten days and half a month, and after such a long time, I don't know who will die in the end?"
In the face of the enemy's ridicule, Shang Bodong was not afraid at all, Shi Shiran sat down cross-legged, although the enemy's strength and power made him difficult to match, but he was not without flaws, he did not give any explanation before he came out, once the missing matter was discovered, it would inevitably attract the attention of the investigation team.
Combined with his move of leaving Yun Lan alone before going out, as long as he scrutinized it a little, it should not be difficult to find that the problem lies with Mu Bai's body, and as long as the reinforcements arrive, for the investigation team, a demon clan at the peak of the Demon Emperor is not a tricky character to deal with.
Shang Bodong's calm performance made Xiao's face change, and he commanded the heavy clouds to roar down, slamming into the golden light, and between the black air rotations, the momentum was considerable.
In the face of such an earth-shattering method, the enveloping range of the golden light was significantly reduced by more than half, and in the blink of an eye, only Shang Bodong's body was left to spare more than a foot around his body, and he could barely protect Shang Bodong, who was sitting cross-legged, and it was a little difficult to stand up even if he was in it!
Originally, it was just a casual try, but the sudden change made Xiao Xiao's heart overjoyed, and when he was just about to say a mocking sentence, the smile on the corner of Shang Bodong's mouth was revealed, and the Xiao Xiao, who had always been cautious, immediately realized that something was wrong, and stretched out his hand to invite a dark cloud to fall fiercely, but the result was as useless as always, and even the effect was not as good as before.
Just after a little thought, Xiao Xiao sensed the problem, the larger the enveloping range of the golden light, the larger the attack area, the reason why Shang Bodong would search the enveloping range of the golden light, presumably also took this into account, fortunately, he was not in a hurry to make a mockery before, otherwise he would have to lose face in front of the other party.
In a flash, Xiao had carefully analyzed the situation in front of him, although he didn't want to admit it, but Shang Bodong's difficulty was indeed a little unexpected by his expectations, and this time the shot was somewhat reckless!
