190: Chapter 190 War Begins
After an unknown amount of time, the boy, whose heart had somewhat died, seemed to perceive something and silently raised his head.
He saw Young Miss Xing Yan clenching her fists, looking at him with a face full of disappointment. Behind her, Chi Xie had also transformed into human form and was hiding behind the sofa, eating the food Taotie had left behind while enjoying the drama.
“Qian Mo, do you believe me?”
“Ah...”
The boy didn't seem to react in time.
“I actually don't know her... and I don't have some so-called husband...”
Xing Yaoyan saw the boy's eyes slowly light up, but they were still much dimmer than before.
It was clear he believed her a little, but was still unsure.
“Forget it... I'll explain to you later. Right now, I want to know... Chi Xie!”
The Flame Tiger, who had been quietly watching the drama from behind, suddenly jolted.
“Where are the others?”
“After the incident happened, I signaled them to hide...”
Chi Xie quickly replied.
Phew~ Thank goodness...
Xing Yaoyan's heart, which had been hanging by a thread, finally relaxed.
“By the way, are you very close to Qian Mo?”
“No, no, no... we only met recently, how could we be close...”
He hurriedly shook his head.
“Then you told him everything about us?”
Xing Yaoyan gave him a subtle look.
“Yes, that Young Miss Xing Yan visited us before and met with us. Because she pitied the tragic fate of us Star Beasts, she specifically decided to sponsor us privately... yeah, that's it.”
Although this boy was a friend of a late friend Moss had specifically mentioned before leaving, telling him he didn't need to be on guard against him, he still fulfilled the instructions Xing Yaoyan had given earlier.
Xing Yaoyan nodded gently upon hearing his words.
“Leave the outside to us later, just remember to hide well. Also, if you hear that it's quiet outside, quickly send out people you trust. The Security Bureau's subsequent cleanup work will definitely require people to go back for statements. There must be no flaws in this part.”
Xing Yaoyan instructed.
“I understand, Sister Yan. Dream Beast taught us all this before, it'll be fine... then I'll be going now...”
Watching Chi Xie's figure disappear out the door, Xing Yaoyan prepared to turn back and check on Qian Mo's state.
Turning around, she saw the boy still staring straight at her.
“What are you looking at? We have to leave quickly. It's a mess outside now. As an Enforcer, do you still have the leisure to be slacking off here?”
The girl criticized the boy as a matter of course, completely oblivious to the fact that she, also an Enforcer, had just been so annoyed by the crowds that she wanted to go on a killing spree...
“I'm curious...”
Qian Mo finally spoke.
“Before, I always thought Star Beasts couldn't transform into human form...”
This single sentence from the boy caused Xing Yaoyan's body to tremble imperceptibly.
“But after seeing Chi Xie, I realized that Star Beasts can also become human... Do you remember the family member I mentioned to you before, the one I've been looking for?”
Xing Yaoyan swallowed hard, but still spoke with feigned calmness.
“I remember, what about it? You don't suspect I'm her, do you?”
Qian Mo didn't answer her question directly.
“Actually, your voices are quite similar, and both of you are in wolf form. More importantly, back at the Amusement Park, I seemed to sense her feeling within Young Miss Xing Yan's golden Demonic Power...”
“Young Miss Xing Yan...”
The boy suddenly looked at the girl before him with extreme seriousness.
“Please don't lie to me. Are you her or not? Is Xing Yan actually Xing Yaoyan...”
“Hehe... what if I am, and what if I'm not... So if I'm not, you don't want to take responsibility for taking this Young Miss's first kiss anymore?”
They say people don't know how capable they are until they push themselves.
In her desperation, Xing Yaoyan used a direct confession that she would have been absolutely too ashamed to say before, instantly turning the serious boy's face bright red and effectively diverting his attention, temporarily avoiding the topic.
“I... no...”
Qian Mo felt his brain suddenly stall.
Did he just get an official status?
Suddenly, a massive explosion sounded from the boy's side.
In an instant, countless clouds of dust cut off Xing Yaoyan's vision.
“Qian Mo! Are you okay!”
Although her perception told her the boy's vital signs were still strong, she couldn't help but shout in concern.
“I'm fine...”
The dust slowly dissipated, revealing Qian Mo's exposed palms covered in powerful golden stripes. He was gripping a long iron flagpole tightly with one hand, his eyes fixed on the 'werewolf' across the hole.
That person was covered in pitch-black fur, and his head had turned into a wolf's head, looking exactly like the image of a werewolf in Xing Yaoyan's memory.
“The good atmosphere was ruined by a guy like you... You deserve to die...”
A powerful Aura suddenly erupted from the boy, causing his black Enforcer cloak to flutter violently.
He slowly took out his gloves and put them on, covering the mysterious golden patterns on his hands. A huge black phantom of a Balance Scale appeared, and just as he was about to strike...
“Brothers! Come quickly! We found Enforcers! As long as we kill them, we can join the Star Cult and gain the ability to control this power!”
The werewolf let out an excited howl to the sky. In the next moment, Xing Yaoyan could feel over a dozen more humanoid malicious red lights popping up around them besides him.
“How did it suddenly become so many...”
Xing Yaoyan clearly remembered that before she entered, there were only a few malicious red lights in her danger perception. Now, it had suddenly multiplied many times over.
“However... they're just some unstable Fourth-Ranks... easy to deal with.”
Crimson Demonic Power surged out of her body, its density so thick it faintly gave off the feeling of Demonic Qi that only a Seventh-Rank Great Demon could form.
“Qian Mo, the left is yours, the right is mine.”
The girl's golden eyes suddenly lit up.
“Okay! Let's go together!”
In an instant, red and black intertwined, with flashes of gold appearing from time to time...
...
At this time, inside Yun Long's office.
He was sitting in his chair with headphones on, eyes closed to rest.
Suddenly, the sound in the headphones vanished. Simultaneously, all the electrical appliances in the room seemed to lose control, emitting ear-piercing alarms.
But they soon vanished at the same time, and the office suddenly became dead silent.
“I knew you would come.”
Yun Long slowly opened his eyes, his gaze locked onto a white-robed figure who had stood by the floor-to-ceiling window at some unknown time.
“The Star Cult's Second Seat Priest, Lei Ting...”
“Hehehe...”
A raspy voice sounded as the white-robed figure slowly lowered the hood from his head, speaking slowly:
“You should call me teacher, Xiao Long... Long time no see, I've missed you quite a bit...”
