Lighting Lanterns in the Mountains and Seas

Chapter 677: Pursuit and Kill


People both on and off the stage wore expressions of shock. Since the unfolding of the Heavenly Mirror image, it was the first time there was such a synchronized reaction, even when they saw their own team members being killed, it didn't garner such a response.

The way they masked themselves was quite stylish, a piece of cloth with two holes, covering the face so much that not even a bit of the face shape could be seen.

After the initial shock, the reaction was, is this personnel from our Heavenly Court Team? Why are they so heavily masked?

Manxi turned his head to look at Mulan Jin, and sent a message: "What is this about?"

Mulan Jin replied via message: "I would like to know too."

Manxi glanced again at the various supervising personnel below the stage, sending a message: "It seems like someone was watching when they came in. It probably wasn't aimed at your daughter. Mulan Order Master, you have Shi Chun escort your beloved, afraid you've shot yourself in the foot."

He had realized it was because the location of the three-thousand team had been exposed earlier, leading to the ambush.

If only one team was pursuing, it might be suspected that the outside world had gotten the number of Shi Chun's team. But with three different teams chasing, it certainly wasn't exposed outside. The confidentiality measures he had outside weren't for show, the greatest possibility was being watched at the entrance when entering.

Why he didn't think it was aimed at Mulan Qingqing was because of Mulan Jin's status and position. To brazenly plot against Mulan Qingqing with premeditation, did they really think Mulan Jin's power was just a bluff? The likelihood of three families doing so simultaneously was almost zero. The key is that doing so has no meaning.

Thinking back and forth, there's only Shi Chun in the three-thousand team worth targeting.

Getting Shi Chun out of Life Prison to cause trouble for his own daughter, he didn't know if Mulan Jin regretted it.

Whether Mulan Jin regrets it, he didn't know. The current issue is, he had given his guarantee to Mulan Jin. If something happened to Mulan Qingqing under his watch, he wouldn't be able to account for it.

He quickly issued an order to the person next to him: "See who are the ones attacking the three-thousand unit."

Understanding the enemy is essential for planning.

Hence, the mirror image quickly adjusted its capture.

Mulan Jin kept a stern face watching, indeed feeling a bit regretful. Who knew Shi Chun would be marked by three teams as soon as he entered the battlefield. He now very much wanted to know which narrow-minded factions were at play, that someone out for twenty years could still be remembered.

The Mountain River Map locked onto the red light spot, enlarging it to reveal the "Five Three Three" number.

In close cooperation with it, the Heavenly Mirror image shifted after several transformations and eventually focused on the flight scene of a group, mainly giving the shot to the leader with auspicious clouds on his belt, a delicate-featured woman, with a decent face under the helmet.

Among the line of generals observing behind Manxi, someone immediately spoke up to remind him: "It's 'Immortal Transformation Pavilion's' Zhu Qingqiu, Earth Immortal Great Success Realm, among our lineup competition in the Nanshan Team, can rank in the top five."

Manxi raised his hand to indicate, the Mountain River Map and Heavenly Mirror images switched fast again.

The Mountain River Map soon locked onto the white light spot, rapidly enlarging the "Two Seven" number.

Linked with it, the Heavenly Mirror image transitioned, quickly fixing onto the squad's leader, a gaunt-faced man.

From among the generals observing behind Manxi, someone promptly provided information, "'Afan Palace' disciple Lu Yin, Earth Immortal Great Success Realm, among our competition in the East Victory Team, can rank in the top five."

Manxi waved his hand again, the Mountain River Map and Heavenly Mirror images continued switching.

The Mountain River Map locked onto a blue light spot, enlarging the "Seven Nine" number, the Heavenly Mirror quickly fixed onto the team leader amongst them, a yellow-faced man.

A council general promptly reported his background, "'Wu Wang Sect' disciple Jie Yunzhao, Earth Immortal Great Success Realm, in the strength lineup ranking in Beiju Team, can rank in the top five."

Manxi waved his hand again, the Mountain River Map and Heavenly Mirror images kept switching.

The Mountain River Map locked onto another blue light spot, enlarging the "Six Eight" number, the Heavenly Mirror images soon fixed onto the team leader amongst them, surprisingly an old man with a wrinkled face.

A council general provided the report, "'Proud God Palace' disciple Wu Shuang, a handyman disciple, but competitive in demonstrating remarkable power, Earth Immortal Great Success realm cultivation, his strength in East Victory Team is also ranked in the top five."

Manxi immediately turned his head towards the cold-faced Mulan Jin, transmitting a message: "They're all experts only one step away from the Heavenly Immortal Realm. No need to doubt, it's definitely aimed at Shi Chun. Moreover, the Commanders of these three families must be involved, otherwise such precisely targeted deployments can't be done by just anyone.

It's likely that all sides are aware of Han Bao's existence, naturally understanding his strength. Without the ability to suppress Han Bao, probably they wouldn't send anyone to target. The possibility of targeting your beloved is low, given the teams have run far, it's too late to return and aid now. Kindly advise the Order Master to have your beloved quietly separate from Shi Chun, and temporarily avoid the confrontation."

The target is in quick motion, hard to pinpoint an exact location, making it difficult to contact through transmission here.

Mulan Jin kept a stern face responding via transmission: "I can't reach her."

Indeed incapable of reaching her, or rather there's no contact information between father and daughter, no matter what the father gives, the daughter refuses, let alone the Mother-child Talisman, always requesting face-to-face talks whenever needing anything.

Manxi was speechless on the spot, had vaguely heard about their father-daughter relationship, yet couldn't avoid frustration in his heart. It only added difficulty, with three families and four teams of experts converging in attack, fearing no one could save them now.
