Chapter 147: They're Coming Back! (Please Subscribe)
To some, He Mao Chunilang's alarmist remarks seemed intentionally exaggerated, but they did strike a chord with many people.
In the past few decades, while human technology has continued to advance, the frequency of major natural and man-made disasters has also been increasing.
Let's not even mention the once-in-a-millennium or once-in-a-millennium events that attract attention.
At least in the few hundred years of recorded history, extreme weather events have been occurring more and more frequently.
When it's hot, it's hotter; when it's cold, it's colder.
Volcanic eruptions and earthquakes have occurred one after another, causing countless heavy casualties.
The water crisis has erupted, and to make matters worse, half of the grain-producing areas in the United States have turned into deserts, while the other half has turned into swamps.
Before the appearance of the extraordinary, all of these could be blamed on the geological movements and climate cycles of the Blue Star itself.
But after the appearance of the extraordinary...
There is no doubt that there are now more scapegoats.
Even if there are no extraordinary individuals coming forward to verify, it cannot stop some well-intentioned people from using their rich imagination to attribute some natural disasters to the extraordinary forces.
He Mao Chunilang's appearance and subsequent actions are just a disguised confirmation of this view.
In the Sakura City, within the He Mao clan's mansion.
He Mao Chunilang has almost become the master of the mansion, although he has not yet succeeded as the clan leader, he is already the one who calls the shots in the family.
This Yin Yang Master has naturally adapted to the sudden change in his status.
And at the first opportunity, he had the clan move all their collections out.
"Junk, junk, still junk!"
"Is this the heritage of our clan?"
"These so-called master's legacies, the ancestors' collections, are there no usable items among them?"
"Could it be that none of these are genuine?"
He Mao Chunilang flicked his azure-colored sleeve, causing a gust of wind that made several elderly members of the clan shiver and tremble with cold.
They complained with their heads down, but dared not argue with He Mao Chunilang.
After all, who doesn't know that he is the talented extraordinary, the true Yin Yang Master in Sakura City!
And in the entire Sakura City, besides him... there is no second true extraordinary!
If he says they are fake, then they must be fake!
He Mao Chunilang spent an afternoon counting the collections and books in his house.
Finally, he realized that he couldn't find any cultivation resources or the correct knowledge of mysteries in the mortal world.
Just when he was about to give up and focus on the upcoming ritual...
He Mao Chunilang suddenly discovered something unusual in the clan leader's thermos.
He reached out with his clean right hand and grabbed the thermos directly from the clan leader's hand.
Then he sniffed the tea fragrance and his spirit shook:
"What's going on with the tea in here?"
"Wait, this is... a tea bag?"
"Quick, tell me! Where did you get this tea bag? I want them all!"
He Mao Chunilang was somewhat excited. Although the tea in the thermos had little effect on him now, even a small effect was better than nothing!
The clan leader didn't dare to delay and quickly recalled the origin of the tea bag.
It was not something he bought, but a gift from an old friend in the ancient Eastern country.
He felt good after drinking it, so he has been drinking it continuously these past two days.
Now seeing Koma Junichiro's reaction, the clan leader understands that these tea bags may be even better than he thought!
Not long after.
Through the family's network, Koma Junichiro learned the origin of these tea bags, and it turned out to be the recently mysterious Nierbo!
That place is known as the "Land of Ten Thousand Buddhas."
It is reasonable for such a place to have mysterious powers appearing first as the great era is about to begin.
However, as the investigation reports became more detailed.
The organization providing the tea bags was traced back to the Eastern investors in the city of Gade.
The information of the six businessmen, including Director Huang, who were the first batch of investors in Gade, appeared on Koma Junichiro's desk.
Some rumors about them were also dug up.
"Behind these six people, there must be a real mysterious force, just like that fox-faced witch."
"Also... the Yun family, a family of exorcists, based on their name, is likely to have a connection with the ancient Eastern country."
"They must have a friendly cooperative relationship with that fox-faced witch, otherwise they wouldn't have come to give me a ride."
Koma Junichiro speculated as he watched the latest videos of Director Huang and others.
In the video, the chubby Director Huang was improvising a set of swordsmanship on the live platform.
And he was also selling products.
The best-selling product, the health tea bags, had long been sold out.
They were selling various wooden ornaments that had participated in temple blessings, as well as agricultural and sideline products from the city of Gade, which were produced in factories invested by them.
It seemed to be because of the influence of the health tea bags.
Under the principle of "loving the house and its crow," these agricultural and sideline products also had good sales.
If you were observant, you could see fleeting comments in the comments section, mentioning deceptive words like "grains and oils" that would quickly disappear.
Koma Junichiro instructed the steward next to him to order everything in Director Huang's live stream.
Then he watched the performance clips of Director Huang and those named disciples.
Suddenly, his pupils contracted a few times and he said:
"These people should have come into contact with real cultivation methods. I don't know if they have spells."
"But at the very least, like me, they have enhanced their five senses and are no longer ordinary people."
"In one of the rumors, a named disciple, like a king in a movie, single-handedly defeated dozens of armed militants. It's very likely true!"
"By the way, those who have offended them probably didn't end well."
Koma Junichiro suddenly thought of something and asked aloud, quickly receiving a positive answer.
This was also the consensus judgment of various forces on the six active individuals in Nierbo and Gade City.
At first, no one paid much attention, but after confirming their extraordinary abilities, the subtle connection between Director Huang and the unlucky general was uncovered.
The unlucky general was killed as a warning to others because he had offended the mysterious force behind Director Huang and the others. This kind of thing could naturally be inferred.
And then... there was nothing more.
Before analyzing the depth of the mysterious force behind Director Huang and the others, and how they would retaliate, there was no possibility of tearing their faces apart.
Even if there were important figures who wanted to do something, they could only mobilize their own people. Trying to drag others down in the current situation, where everyone knows, would be extremely difficult.
Especially in a place like Nierbo, where everyone's interests are intertwined, it is even more unlikely that any force can exert any influence.
After all, in this world, it is often difficult to accomplish good things, but it is easy to do bad things.
Apart from keeping an eye on them and trying to establish friendly contacts, there were not many actions that everyone was willing to take.
And Director Huang and the others seemed to have been prepared for this, treating all forces equally.
As long as they are willing to engage in peaceful communication, they are welcomed and willing to sell their increasingly well-known fist product: health tea bags.
The production of these tea bags is not enough to meet the growing demand as their popularity increases.
As a result, Huang and others have come up with various tactics such as live streaming sales and timed sales, causing headaches for intelligence personnel stationed in Nielbo.
With the addition of Kamo Junichiro to the buying frenzy, it is clear that the tea bags that have received extraordinary recognition will become even more difficult to acquire. This will also give intermediaries the confidence to raise prices.
Kamo Junichiro set aside the intelligence from Huang and others and turned his attention to the information about the Star of Enlightenment Church in Korea.
Currently, the Star of Enlightenment Church has gained support from many influential figures in Korea and is trending towards replacing the First Sect.
At the same time, he also noticed the connection between the changes in the Star of Enlightenment Church and the capture of the two brother priests who went to Nielbo.
There are even bold speculations among intelligence personnel that the mysterious force behind the Star of Enlightenment Church is likely the same group as the Nielbo Gade Temple.
Even the Red Snake Sect was attacked and defeated in their base in Korea because they offended the Star of Enlightenment Church.
This forced the leader of the Red Snake Sect to take desperate measures, turning the entire temple into a demonic cave and setting fire to Sakuradu.
The fact that the White Bone Giant is the leader of the Red Sect has been confirmed from the beginning due to constant surveillance.
"It may not be the same group, but it could be a collaboration between extraordinary forces."
After entering the Qi Refining stage, Kamo Junichiro believed that he had gained insight.
He could see that the Fox-faced Priestess, the Exorcist, and the White Bone Giant from before all possessed different mysterious powers from the beginning.
In addition, there were the rituals and disaster warnings requested by the Fox-faced Priestess.
Kamo Junichiro was more inclined to believe in prophecies from the mysterious world or the perception of a major change approaching.
Therefore, they had to cooperate with each other and gradually reveal their mysterious side in the mortal world in order to obtain their help and complete some auxiliary tasks.
And he, Kamo Junichiro, was fortunate to be part of this plan.
He was dedicating himself to saving Sakuradu, saving the entire Cherry Blossom Kingdom, and even human civilization!
This sense of mission and responsibility made Kamo Junichiro feel good, after all, which young person hasn't fantasized about saving the world?
Not to mention that Kamo Junichiro came from a family of Yin-Yang Masters with this traditional education.
He deliberately hinted at this aspect, indicating to those bureaucrats that he was engaged in a great cause.
So... he had to ask for more money, even if Sakuradu couldn't contribute. These bureaucrats and the wealthy landowners behind them should be willing to support his righteous cause with some financial assistance.
While Kamo Junichiro was thriving in Sakuradu...
In the Grotto-Heaven in the teapot, buried on the mountaintop...
Because he recently drew many ordinary quality buildings from the gacha.
In addition to the small black house, there were several newly decorated tile-roofed houses on the mountaintop, and they were filled with furniture.
Huang and the other six people came to the burial ground once again.
The first time, they were led by ghosts to the main house.
And then, they widened their eyes in surprise when they saw two snake women in the dazzlingly beautiful kitchen, cooking and serving tea and food.
They served as maids, serving tea and food to everyone.
Rat Daoist sat at the head of the round table in the main house and said lightly after everyone sat down:
"Don't be nervous, they are just two poor snake women."
"I saw them helpless and took them in. I also let them handle some chores in their spare time, which can be considered as bringing some life to my burial ground."
Upon hearing this, Huang and the others lowered their heads and dared not look again, but they flattered Rat Daoist for his compassion.
But in their hearts, they were shocked that there were really demon women in this world!
The Mouse Taoist seemed to have seen through the thoughts of these named disciples.
After taking a sip of spiritual tea, he casually said,
"Don't be surprised. Besides the Snake Girl, there are also the Rabbit Girl, Cat Girl, and even the Fox Girl..."
"However, they are not the animals that you see in storybooks."
"The animals that become spirits are demonic beasts, each one more ferocious and larger in size than the last."
"The reason I say they are pitiful is because they are actually the tragic descendants born from the integration of demonic beast blood and mortal bodies by evil cultivators."
"They are all unfortunate people born with defects!"
In the Mouse Taoist's sigh, Huang Zong and the others fell into contemplation due to the immense amount of information.
Demon women, demonic beasts, evil cultivation, descendants of experimental creations...
Why did they have no knowledge of such legends in the real world?
In today's society, it would be impossible for something to happen without leaving any traces, let alone such a significant event.
Could it be that these things never happened in their known world?
How vast is the mysterious world that they are unaware of?
Could it be true that there is a super large secret realm where the ruler is the one who draws the boundaries, and where even ordinary people who have never appeared in reality live?
As the Mouse Taoist treated them to a meal, Su Ping allowed Huang Zong and the other five to eat the meat of demonic beasts.
By the way, Su Ping specifically allowed Huang Zong to film the entire process with his equipment.
Except for the Mouse Taoist, who did not show himself.
The huge bone frame of the demonic beast meat, the details of the clothing and accessories of the two Snake Girls, and various fruits and vegetables that Water Blue Star did not have.
They all appeared in the footage.
Huang Zong was well aware that if this video content were to be exposed, it would have a significant impact on various forces in the outside world.
It would also lead to many associations!
After all, anyone with a bit of intelligence could deduce from numerous details that the mysterious circle is much larger than they imagined, which would be a terrifying result.
But since this was what the master requested, as a named disciple, he naturally had to do his best.
As for the outside world being frightened?
What does it have to do with him, a named disciple?
Even if he only revealed a little bit of the truth about the mysterious world in advance, it could be considered as a wake-up call for those who are bold.
It would tell them not to act rashly.
The depth of the mysterious realm is much deeper than everyone imagined!
It's possible that Water Blue Star hasn't discovered any traces of the mystery for hundreds of years.
Not only because of some catastrophe that caused them to be severely damaged and go into hiding.
But because their perspective was too narrow.
It's possible that the real world is just one of countless mortal worlds controlled by the mysterious big shots!
Before, they were simply too busy or chose to let them be?
And now!
Clearly, regardless of the reason.
They are coming back!
