Finding the Middleman

Once a person gets suspended in the air, they would lose their center of gravity and their strength. Especially since Edward was in such a strange posture, his limbs and body could not exert any strength.

His feet seemed to struggle twice, but it was futile.

Seeing this, Zhi Tong attacked again. “The power of the evil spirit—Vengeful Spirit!”

As soon as he finished speaking, Edward’s eyes widened in shock because he saw a pale female ghost appear in the sky in front of him!

The ghost was dressed in a blood-red wedding dress. She had black eyes and red lips, but her face was terrifyingly pale! In the next second, an even more terrifying thing happened. The ghost suddenly opened its mouth. It was as big as the bottom of a pot as if it wanted to swallow Edward!

“Ah!!!”

However, the ghost did not devour Edward. Instead, it suddenly let out an extremely ear-piercing scream. The frequency of the sonar was extremely high, far exceeding what ordinary people could withstand. Even Duo was prepared because he knew how powerful Zhi Tong’s move was. However, even so, he could not help but frown.

The Vengeful Spirit was one of the high-level mental cultivation techniques of Zhi Tong’s power of the evil spirit. Its destructive power was not inferior to Chi Lian’s high-level holy power, and it was extremely difficult to guard against!

The vengeful spirit floated in front of Edward and released a sonar attack when he was caught off guard.

Edward received all the damage from this attack in the most direct way. Blood seeped out of his ears, nose, mouth, and eyes under the high-frequency pressure of the sonar!

Pfft!

In the end, Edward suddenly spat out a mouthful of blood, and his entire body instantly went limp. His hair, which had an ability attached to it, returned to normal, and he fell to the ground with a thump.

This attack completely made Edward lose his ability to fight. His aura was so weak that he was almost dead.

Zhi Tong looked at Edward’s tragic state and felt a trace of pity in his heart.

Of course, he knew that his pity was a little ridiculous. It was not an exaggeration to say that this person was heinous. Countless people had died at his hands in this world.

Zhi Tong only sighed. He differed from ordinary people. If he could do something meaningful with his talent, he would not have ended up like this!

“Uncle Duo, I’ll leave it to you.” Zhi Tong exhaled softly and left this sentence before turning around and leaving the house.

Duo looked up at Zhi Tong and knew that he could not bear to see the other party die.

Without hesitation, Duo slowly raised his hand and said softly, “The power of repose—Purgatory!”

As soon as he finished speaking, a rich black gas rose around Edward. The gas was like what he had just used. It was not smoke, but the ink that had exploded.

The gas spiraled up and finally formed a huge black ball that wrapped around Edward. Then, it spun quickly.

About half a minute later, the black ball gradually dissipated, and Edward’s body turned into a wisp of black smoke and disappeared. There was not even a trace of bone or blood.

“Dead?”

Seeing that Duo was out, Zhi Tong couldn’t help but confirm.

Duo nodded. “He’s dead!”

Hearing this, Zhi Tong couldn’t help but sigh and say helplessly, “If I didn’t know his background, I would have thought he looked like a good person, seeing him do that woman’s hair just now.”

When Duo heard Zhi Tong’s sigh, he couldn’t help but raise his hand and pat his shoulder gently. He said, “What the eyes see might not be true. Such a person deserves to die. He’s not worthy of sympathy.”

If they had no choice but to kill him, who knew how many innocent people would have died at this person’s hands?

Zhi Tong naturally knew this logic. He was just sighing for no reason.

“Let’s leave as soon as possible. This town is not big. I’m afraid someone will notice that he’s gone soon.” Zhi Tong waved away the emotions in his heart and said to Duo.

Duo nodded and looked up at the distant sky. The colorful aurora rippled in the night sky like a layer of colorful gauze, mysterious and beautiful.

Such beautiful scenery could only be seen briefly. The two said nothing and quickly returned the way they came. That night, they left this town.

The next morning, Si Yue and Yun Buyao found the ancient sect member who was in the porcelain business in Indonesia under Chi Yang’s lead.

“Lords, I’m a disciple of the ancient sect, Doramy.”

Doramy was a Malay and was also the first batch of ancient sect members that Bai Zhou found. This year, he was almost forty years old. He had come to Indonesia to do business since he was in his twenties. Until now, he had already settled down for over ten years and knew a lot of local things in Indonesia.

After a simple greeting, Doramy said, “Michelle and I have been friends for many years. It’s been many years since she led the way for the people looking for Ao Duo. It’s difficult to find Ao Duo here, especially for outsiders like you. Michelle has to lead the way.”

“Isn’t the Michelle you’re talking about a person who sells wind chimes? Why does this person have to lead the way for us to find Ao Duo? What’s her relationship with Ao Duo?” Yun Buyao asked curiously.

She initially thought that Doramy and Michelle had known each other for many years and should know some inside information, but Doramy shook his head and said, “I don’t know about this. Michelle doesn’t seem to want to mention anything about Ao Duo. However, as a middleman, Michelle has to collect a fee to lead the way for others, so it’s hard to say what her relationship with Ao Duo is. It might be a master-servant relationship or a cooperative relationship.”

Yun Buyao nodded thoughtfully, but there was nothing wrong with Doramy’s words. Since Michelle was the only person in Indonesia who could find Ao Duo, Ao Duo must have trusted her.

“I’ve already informed Michelle. Let’s set off now!” Doramy said.

The streets of this city were chaotic, and the main roads and alleys were interspersed. The environment was very worrying. Under Doramy’s lead, they followed him through narrow alleys. There was also an unpleasant pungent smell in the air, and they could see ditches of various sizes everywhere.

Yun Buyao had never seen such a dirty and messy capital. She frowned and pinched her nose along the way, she could barely withstand this harsh environment.

Finally, after walking for almost an hour, they stopped in a noisy market. In front of them was an extremely simple shop. Wind chimes of various shapes hung on the roof outside the door.

This was Michelle’s shop.

“It’s here. Lords, please follow me in,” Doramy said.
