Chapter 1625: Agency Members Mobilize
The sleeve of the theatrical robe brushed against the void, emitting a crisp sound that was difficult for ordinary people to discern.
This was a signal.
The moment the signal was sent, in an abandoned shop next to Jinghong Tower, a pair of sharp and playful eyes opened in the darkness!
Clang—!!!
An exotic curved blade inlaid with peculiar diamonds swept out from the closed shop door like lightning, directly shattering the shop door, and after spinning half a circle in the air, it fell straight toward the top of the carriage!
With a soft sound, the man who had rushed to the top of the carriage while cursing was directly decapitated by the blade!
The slaughter didn't end there. The curved blade seemed to be guided by something, circling around the carriage and beheading all three or four people who had rushed to the front. Bursts of dazzling light flashed across everyone's eyes, blinding them so they couldn't see what was happening.
Gurgle, gurgle...
Hot blood sprayed like a fountain, directly drenching the citizens who had rushed to the front. They stood frozen in place for a moment. In the dead silence, only a head with wide-open eyes rolled in front of them.
A breeze carrying the smell of blood blew across the street. At some point, a young man with bronze-colored skin was already standing on the carriage.
A few strands of gold-like hair were mixed in with his white hair. As the breeze blew, the gold rings at the ends of his small braids collided, emitting a series of light sounds... He was shirtless, holding the hilt of the golden curved blade with one hand. His fingers, covered in rings of various colors, exerted a slight force, and he pulled it out from the top of the carriage!
He stood proudly on top of the carriage like a perfect ancient Greek statue, looking down at the terrified crowd drenched in blood, a wicked smile curling at the corners of his mouth:
"Why aren't you continuing to charge forward?"
"Come on..."
"Continue?"
The tragic deaths of the first few people directly scared this group of irrational citizens into freezing in place. At this moment, fear overcame their instinct for survival. Their bodies were covered in sticky, warm blood, which was the best "sobering agent."
"Murder... murder!!!!!"
"Who are you? How dare you kill people in the street in the Cangyun Domain?!"
"The Dragon-Twisting Warriors and Cang Yun-jun won't let you go!"
“……”
Hearing the terrified shouts and accusations from below, the figure on the carriage laughed arrogantly!
"Who am I?"
"Hahahaha... you guys, look down at the ground?"
The crowd, which had been crowded together, now looked down one after another... As they gradually retreated, they saw that the scarlet blood that had just sprayed was now outlining the shape of a playing card on the ground around the carriage.
——[Jack of Hearts].
Dusk Agency...
Is it someone from the Dusk Agency?!
At this moment, everyone's gaze toward the carriage changed.
They were indeed sick, and if they didn't get timely treatment, they certainly wouldn't live long... But if they provoked someone from the Dusk Agency, they probably wouldn't even live to the next second... The headless corpses on the ground were the best proof.
The Jack of Hearts on the carriage looked down at the crowd below with disdain, the curved blade in his hand flashing with a deadly cold light. He pointed to the carriage beneath him.
"You rabble..."
"This carriage, and the person inside, are taken by our Dusk Agency."
"If you want to die... you can try taking another step forward."
In an instant,
The street fell into dead silence.
……
Meanwhile.
Inside the carriage.
Even though the outside was in a mess, the inside of the carriage remained quiet. A pair of hands picked up a teacup at a leisurely pace, poured a cup of hot tea into an empty cup on the table, and then gently handed it to the weakly coughing Mr. Han...
"Mr. Han, since your body hasn't fully recovered, don't be in such a hurry to risk your life."
In the carriage, which had previously only contained Mr. Han, a figure sitting cross-legged had appeared out of nowhere. Light cyan hair was tied behind his back, a few loose strands of hair scattered casually. On that fair neck, a snake-shaped tattoo looked eerie and ferocious.
"Cough, cough, cough, cough, cough..." Mr. Han sipped the hot tea, which eased his condition slightly. He carefully examined the young man who had been outlined in the clear breeze, a complex look flashing in his eyes.
"You are... from the Dusk Agency?"
"Correct."
The young man raised his hand gently, pushed a playing card in front of Mr. Han, and said lightly, "Dusk Agency, Queen of Diamonds. I have long admired Mr. Han's great name."
"Why would someone from the Dusk Agency appear here?"
Mr. Han was a bit puzzled.
The Queen of Diamonds looked at him quietly, smiling without saying a word.
Mr. Han seemed to realize something:
"Red King... is in the Cangyun Domain right now?"
The Queen of Diamonds didn't answer this question directly, but smiled helplessly. "Mr. Han's fanfare in entering the city was simply too great; it would be hard for Lord Red King not to notice."
"It was my negligence. When I went to the Lingxu and Tianxue domains before, it was still normal... I didn't expect that the situation in the Cangyun Domain had deteriorated to this point." A bitter look appeared on Mr. Han's face. "I've made a fool of myself in front of the Red King."
"Mr. Han has a connection with our Dusk Agency, so Lord Red King naturally won't stand by and watch."
The Queen of Diamonds bowed respectfully, then said lightly in a tone that brooked no refusal, "Since Mr. Han is here, Lord Red King would like to meet with you... If it's convenient for you, please come with us."
Mr. Han lifted a corner of the curtain. The pool of blood and messy corpses beside the carriage came into view. He looked at the vast crowd behind him, and a bitter look appeared on his face.
"This is the Cangyun Domain. How can we get away under the eyes of everyone?"
The Queen of Diamonds smiled slightly:
"That, Mr. Han, you don't need to worry about."
……
"Where are the Dragon-Twisting Warriors?!"
"Dusk Agency members killed people!! Why is no one coming to deal with them!?"
“……”
Under the impact of blood and death, the citizens had completely sobered up from the previous chaos and disorder, and began to pursue the Dragon-Twisting Warriors behind them who were still arresting citizens.
Seeing the Dusk Agency suddenly descend from the sky, the Dragon-Twisting Warriors were also a bit confused. They looked at each other at a loss for a moment... But after discovering that the Dusk Agency members were truly killing people indiscriminately, some couldn't help it anymore and roared as they rushed forward!
Seeing this, the Jack of Hearts on top of the carriage narrowed his eyes, holding the curved blade and about to do something. The next second, a light tapping sound came from inside the carriage.
The Jack of Hearts' movements paused slightly.
He didn't strike with the blade again, but instead folded his hands in front of his chest, watching the few people flying toward him calmly...
"Idiots..."
"If it weren't for Lord Red King forbidding it, I would have chopped every single one of you..."
Disdain flashed in the eyes of the Jack of Hearts, and his words of contempt reached the ears of the few Dragon-Twisting Warriors. They were stunned, and the next second, their killing intent soared. The terrifying power almost compressed the air until it exploded!
However, just as they were about to touch the Jack of Hearts and the carriage...
Endless rose petals exploded directly in front of their eyes!
