160: Chapter 160 I possess [Heavenly Secrets], and I will be invincible!
"I didn't expect you to be a victim of Chunibyo as well."
The woman in the red fox mask laughed so hard she shook, but her tone turned cold in the next second:
"Is your confidence based on this Tang Zheng with his Fighting God Talent? Unfortunately, it only lasts for a minute. If we really start fighting, he might be able to get away, but you probably won't!"
As she spoke, she raised a hand. Several figures suddenly appeared on the surrounding eaves, each holding a rifle, and two were even carrying rocket launchers.
Tang Zheng's expression became slightly solemn.
"With such detailed intelligence, the Resurrection Society really has planted moles in the official ranks. I suspect they're quite high-level, aren't they?"
Chu Xuan's expression remained normal on the surface, but his heart grew dark. At the same time, he wondered if that mysterious powerhouse was related to the Resurrection Society.
He used the black-rimmed glasses' inspection skill on Xinyue Fox, but it had no effect at all. The black-rimmed glasses didn't react, and he couldn't input any spirituality.
"Our power is beyond your imagination."
Xinyue Fox said playfully, "Tell me, what is your purpose in coming to me? What guidance has your [Heavenly Secret] given you? If you don't have a suitable answer, you'll be staying here today."
Chu Xuan set aside his distracting thoughts and said calmly, "I came here, naturally, to become one of the Twenty-Eight Mansions."
Xinyue Fox laughed again, her voice unabashedly mocking. "You, an official Night Watcher, actually want to become a Constellation Envoy? Setting aside the issue of your identity, you've killed so many of our members, even the Usher of Yinshan Village! By disrupting the Spirit Washing ritual, you are destined to be a God-forsaken pariah. What right do you have to become a Constellation Envoy? Have you lost your mind?"
Constellation Envoy?
The corners of Chu Xuan's mouth curled up slightly. "I was originally a member of the Resurrection Society; why can't I become a Constellation Envoy? Since you're so capable, you should have investigated my identity by now, right?"
Xinyue Fox continued to mock him. "We only found out that you were an ordinary person before this, only becoming a Transcendent during the Night Demon Incident at the Medical University, and then heading to Yinshan Village the very next day! You never underwent the Spirit Washing ritual, nor did you have a Guide. How could you be a member of the Resurrection Society?"
She finally asked the question!
Chu Xuan's eyes flickered.
He had previously gone out of his way to spend spirit money to take Tao Jiajia and the others onto the eerie bus, only to shoot them all after getting off. This redundant behavior was intended to let the fox witness his actions firsthand, thereby solidifying his identity as a member of the Resurrection Society.
But there were still many flaws. For instance, his identity as a university student was too simple and wouldn't stand up to scrutiny. Also, he hadn't taken those survivors to undergo Spirit Washing to earn spirit money later; instead, he had killed the White-haired Village Chief.
However, Chu Xuan had already planned for this.
When Xinyue Fox asked this question, Chu Xuan suddenly shook his head and chuckled. "It seems your power is still lacking. You didn't even discover that my Guide was actually Chen Yao."
"Chen Yao?" Xinyue Fox said in a low voice. "Don't think I don't know that you intercepted and killed Chen Yao before going to Yinshan Village. If he was your Guide, why did you kill him?"
"Because he tricked me into letting a Specter possess my body, so he deserved to die!"
Chu Xuan said coldly, "Don't talk to me about God's blessings or mutual redemption with Specters. Those are just lines you use to deceive newcomers! I have been summoned by [Heavenly Secret] and already know that the Specter inside me is harmful and useless. You people are just Traitors to humanity, willing to harm more people by letting Specters possess them just to earn spirit money!"
Xinyue Fox smiled. "In that case, why didn't you bring more official personnel here to act on behalf of heaven?"
"Act on behalf of heaven? You think too highly of yourselves! If you were Specters, I would kill you without hesitation to get spirituality value. But unfortunately... there's no benefit in it. I have no interest in being a dog for the officials!"
Chu Xuan said indifferently, "I awakened [Heavenly Secret], and I know how to turn danger into safety and find opportunities in dead ends!"
"I'm not like you wretched rats in the gutters, hiding your heads and tails, scurrying around, only daring to deceive and coerce ordinary people to earn that measly bit of spirit money."
"In this era of Specter invasion and the rise of the Transcendent, since I have awakened [Heavenly Secret], I am designated by the will of heaven and blessed with Supreme luck. I am the protagonist! If I'm going to do something, it has to be something big!"
"That's why I took the initiative to participate in the Night Demon Incident at the school, why I went to Yinshan Village to kill the Great Buddha, and why I came here today to find you!"
Chu Xuan had a proud expression.
What he was displaying now was the arrogance of a young man who, after being deceived and persecuted, suddenly obtained a massive Opportunity. All his actions seemed to be guided by something unseen, always yielding the greatest benefits, leading him to believe he was the protagonist of the era who looked down on everyone.
This massive Opportunity was the talent he had been portraying—[Heavenly Secret]!
And this behavior of a Chunibyo youth who looked down on everything could perfectly explain his various actions in Yinshan Village.
Chu Xuan's words undoubtedly infuriated the people present, who glared at him one after another.
Xinyue Fox caught the key point in Chu Xuan's words and immediately asked, "You said you took the initiative to go to the school and participate in the Night Demon Incident?"
"Naturally. Since you've planted official moles, didn't you investigate how I survived? All my foresight is guidance given by [Heavenly Secret]."
Chu Xuan said indifferently, "To you cowards, the Night Demon about to advance to S-rank is terrifying, comparable to mythical demons. But to me, it was just farming experience in a starter village. His Clones were my best supplies in the Early Stage!"
Everyone was stunned into silence.
Chu Xuan raised his chin slightly and spoke proudly, "And the Great Buddha of Yinshan Village, as well as those Lost Ones—you avoid them at all costs, but to me, they were just stepping stones on my path to becoming a powerhouse! I have [Heavenly Secret], and everything goes my way!"
This time, even Xinyue Fox was speechless. Everyone looked at Chu Xuan as if he were a madman, yet for a moment, they couldn't find a reason to refute him.
Because the facts were indeed so...
Thinking of this, everyone had different thoughts, but one idea popped up simultaneously—
Is [Heavenly Secret] really that strong?
Xinyue Fox couldn't help but ask, "So the next new guidance Heavenly Secret gave you is to become a Constellation Envoy of the Resurrection Society?"
"Exactly."
Chu Xuan said unhurriedly, "I've said it before: I'll kill whoever stands in my way! Was that Usher you mentioned the White-haired Village Chief?"
"When I wanted to kill the Great Buddha, he was chirping away, so I just killed him. Now I want to become a Constellation Envoy. Are you, Xinyue Fox, also going to block my path?"
Chu Xuan looked around at everyone and laughed loudly. "Do you really think I care about you nobodies? Since I dared to come here, I'm not afraid of you being driven to desperation!"
"If you comply with me today, then so be it; I won't forget your benefits in the future. But if you dare to block my path, I'll kill you all."
After speaking, Chu Xuan's gaze finally landed on Xinyue Fox, and the corner of his mouth curled up. "If you don't believe me, just try."
