267: underground factory

“Spirit Treasure is dead, so Tongtian should rise?”

Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning frowned, then fell into deep thought.

He pinched his fingers and seemed to be muttering something.

After a long time, Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning began to re-examine Song Zhong.

“When I was in Cangnan, I originally thought those ancient gods were your biggest trump card.

Now it seems you have another fortuitous encounter.

Your destiny has become increasingly unpredictable.

Even the destiny of Spirit Treasure has become blurred.”

Song Zhong said indifferently, “If everything is pushed to the extreme, the 緣分 is bound to end early.

Wouldn't it be boring to calculate everything so clearly?

Fellow Daoist, why don't you come with me and see what Bai Li Pang Pang will do?”

Celestial Worthy of the Primordial Beginning hesitated, seemingly changing his mind.

“Alright, the will of Heaven is hard to fathom. The rest depends on his own fortune.”

…

Bai Li Pang Pang, riding the [Yaoguang], swiftly flew over Guangzhou-Shenzhen.

Soon, they arrived at a desolate bay.

Various abandoned factories were located here.

This place was once prosperous, but as industrial technology updated and iterated, it became history.

“Pang Pang, why did you bring us here?” Lin Qi Ye asked.

Bai Li Pang Pang looked at one of the factories, a complicated expression flashing in his eyes.

“Don't you want to know about the Baili Family? I'll tell you now.

Actually, my surname isn't Baili.

And my real home is here.”

Under the astonished gazes of Lin Qi Ye and the others, Pang Pang recounted everything the Baili Family had done…

“Bastards!”

Shen Qingzhu, also an orphan, had bloodshot eyes. He could best understand Bai Li Pang Pang's current feelings.

“How could the Baili Family do such inhumane things for the sake of so-called Forbidden Object research?”

“Are the lives of human sacrifices not lives? This isn't a factory at all; it's Hell.”

“So they were so audacious behind our backs.”

Galan clenched her small fists, her face puffed up with anger, and said furiously, “They deserve to die… they deserve to die…”

Pang Pang gave a tragic smile, “So, do you understand now why I did what I did back then?”

Lin Qi Ye patted Pang Pang's shoulder and said, “Don't worry, Pang Pang, no matter what happens, we'll always stand by you.”

Pang Pang rubbed his eyes and said, “Seriously, the wind by the sea is too strong, blowing sand into my eyes.

Alright, let's hurry and rescue those people in The factory!”

The group followed Pang Pang, winding through a hidden path in the woods.

Soon, they arrived in front of an abandoned factory.

It was unknown how long this place had been abandoned. Weeds and vines covered the walls, and The factory's doors and windows were rusted, looking like they would crumble at a touch.

“Pang Pang, is The factory you mentioned here? This place doesn't look like anyone's here?” Cao Yuan, who had regained consciousness, asked.

“What we see now is just a disguise Bai Li Xin used to cover it up.”

Pang Pang pointed to a water tower in the corner of the yard and said, “The real entrance is there.”

“I see.” Cao Yuan said.

Just as they were about to go over, footsteps suddenly came from the desolate woods beside The factory.

Several big men with guns walked out.

Their eyes were fierce, staring menacingly at these outsiders, and they loudly asked, “This is our Black Shark Gang's territory. If you know what's good for you, scram.”

After speaking, the muzzles of their guns were pointed at the group.

“There really are people guarding here!” Lin Qi Ye said, his Star Blade already unsheathed, ready to act.

But Pang Pang stopped him.

“Lin Qi Ye, can I handle this myself, please?”

Lin Qi Ye looked at Pang Pang in surprise. Although his words were a question, his tone carried an undeniable authority. Just hearing his words made one feel a desire to submit.

Pang Pang was indeed different from before.

“Okay!” Lin Qi Ye nodded.

“Thank you!” Pang Pang said.

This exchange between the two completely ignored the few gangsters opposite them, which made the other party feel insulted.

“The sun must have risen from the west today. You little brats, you don't think you can beat us with a few broken knives, do you?”

“Exactly, watch fewer TV shows. Beyond seven steps, a gun is fast; within seven steps, a gun is both fast and accurate,” said a bald man with letters tattooed on his head.

Pang Pang was fearless and scoffed, “Oh really? Then try shooting. I bet your gun will backfire.”

“Hahahaha…” Pang Pang's words amused the bald man. “Did you hear that? He said my gun would backfire. Why don't you say there are no bullets in my gun?

Who do you think you are, Yan Shuangying?”

With that, a hint of ruthlessness flashed in the bald man's eyes, and he pulled the trigger.

After a gunshot, Pang Pang still stood perfectly fine.

The bald man looked at his right hand, which had lost its thumb, so shocked that he didn't even feel the pain.

Damn it, it backfired, it really backfired!

The pistol actually backfired!

“F*ck!” The bald man tightly gripped his wound with his left hand and angrily shouted, “Shoot them dead!”

The other subordinates quickly opened fire.

But a strange scene occurred: the remaining four pistols all backfired without exception.

The bald man was stunned. It was one thing if he was unlucky, but how could all the pistols backfire?

Pang Pang moved his fingers slightly, and several fragments sliced across their necks.

Blood flashed, and the gangsters guarding the place died unnatural deaths.

“Lin Qi Ye, there are Forbidden Object Users guarding inside later. I'll handle them; you just focus on the rescue.”

Pang Pang quickly arrived before the water tower. The Blood Ruyi glowed with an enchanting light, directly blasting the water tower into 碎渣.

Beneath the ground, a steel door appeared before everyone.

Sensing the commotion outside, the steel door slowly opened, and seven figures walked out from inside.

“Who is it that dares to act so presumptuously here?”

The leader held an old music box in his hand, his eyes filled with Killing Intent.

After seeing clearly who the newcomers were, a look of shock appeared on that person's face.

“Baili Tuming? How are you here?”

“Heh heh, what, is it strange for me to come home and take a look?” Pang Pang smiled with his hands behind his back.

The seven Forbidden Object Users guarding the place across from them had solemn expressions. Baili Tuming's appearance here indicated that something big must have happened to the Baili Family.

“Attack!”

With a command from that person, all seven simultaneously took out their Forbidden Objects, but the next second, those Forbidden Objects flew to Pang Pang's side.

“Lin Qi Ye, hurry up and go in!” Pang Pang shouted loudly.

Lin Qi Ye and the others rushed into the underground factory with their knives. The Forbidden Object Users were about to stop them when a blood-red light blocked their way.

Upon entering the underground factory, Lin Qi Ye and the others were immediately shocked by the scene inside.

Within the vast factory, dense steel frames stood, and on each row of frames, countless transparent vacuum bags hung.

And inside the vacuum bags were tiny children.

Transparent tubes were inserted into those vacuum bags, drawing out the children's blood.
