How could a cat have such powerful force?!
The woman's stunned and pale expression was also etched with fear, due to the fact that she was immobilised! Like her body, tongue, she couldn't even speak!
In this situation, she likely couldn't use the twilight stone.
At this moment, the woman recalled her elder sister's words, she should have retreated while she had the chance...
Boohoo b*tch!
Xero felt that this woman seemed to have misunderstood, he hadn't actually released his aura or oppressive force to slam her to her knees. It was automatic due to the deteriorating talisman and dimensional seal chains.
Therefore, the reason was simple! Spiritual force was like a Qun Gong skill. If Xero had released his oppressive force in his unsealed state, it wouldn't be just the woman that would be slammed through the earth's core, the division of cats along with dumbass elder brother would also be reduced to fine dust...
And so, as explained earlier; the force was automatic due to Xero's invulnerable body. It was instinctive due to his nerves senses, this would cause the oppressive force to double by two times and would increase by the minute. Plainly speaking, it shared the exact same principle as a rebound attack, the same one that killed Golden Badge Assassin, Zhao Junyi.
This utterly helpless girl on her knees was kind of funny to Tianrui.
Meanwhile, he had already uncovered Xero's identity. Although they both somewhat get along at family reniouns and dinners, they coordinated very well in unusual situations like these.
The moment the wall was blasted open, Tianrui had already knew Xero was there.
He sighed and looked at his phone; only less than five minutes until the destruction of the solar system...
Reaching into his pocket to retrieve the talisman seal he had brought with him, he carefully put it on his back and stroked it slowly across Xero's fur.
Finally! The seal is back on!
The only thing Xero has to do now was to reinforce the chains from the dimensional seal. In doing this, he closed his eyes, and warped the orb in the middle as it generated new chains, this time, they were stronger than ever.
Xero checked his paws. Hmm... As expected, the new talisman was stronger than the old one.
He could clearly feel that his strength had been suppressed and curbed drastically. The first five months of the talisman seal was at its strongest according to Tianrui, so now... He didn't have to worry about controlling his strength, accidentally reducing chopsticks to sand; he could even jump around casually in radio exercise!
This was great news. It made him happier than him munching on custard bun snacks.
"To further advance this talisman, I used the same material but mixed it with two force reducing emeralds. This time, it should last for six years, which will be enough for you, little bro." Tianrui said these words in his mind, knowing Xero could hear it clearly due to his Mind Reading Ability, after all, he couldn't let the outsiders know the truth about his power.
In some sense, Tianrui felt that Xero's uncontrollable rapid advancement through realms as he got older was even a greater state secret than the most powerful brain in Yunzhou Nation.
Hence, he treated this matter as if it was his own secret; he had promised Xero's parents, Zhang Wei and Lin Mei, that he wouldn't speak about it with outsiders.
Naturally, if the government found out... Endless wars would happen.
And most definitely, they would use Xero's infinite energy as machine to further advance the earth's structure, and most definitely as a weapon.
Not only has Tianrui been researching multiple materials for the talismans all the time, he also kept his lips tightly shut when it came to this matter.
Xero thought that at the very least, he was truly appreciative of such an older brother.
If it wasn't for him, this world would have been long destroyed years before...
His wish was unity among all beings.
Looking at the immobilised woman, Tianrui turned his head over to Xero. "Sooo... What should we do with her?"
Xero shook his head -- what else could they do?
-- Of course, hand her over to the damn nation!
There's no way she'll be walking free through the streets.
From the beginning, he had no intention of actually harming her, since there wasn't any gain or value for eliminating one measly killer. On the other side, if they handed her over to the cultivation police department, it would significantly increase the investigation through Shadow Emblem.
Even if they kill one killer, there are still thousands upon thousands that are out there... so... helping the cultivation police department to get rid of the terrorist organisation from the source... this should be the basic quality of a model citizen who held up to the cores of cultivation.
Of course, Xero didn't plan to take credit for this deed.
After all, it would need the most powerful brain in Yunzhou Nation to sort out this mess.
Tianrui bent down for a moment to retrieve the stolen twilight stone from Su Wanqing's pocket. She looked like she had been paralysed by the Crimson Orchid Piercing Technique. He pointed at her and sighed in his heart. "Knock her out though."
After pondering for a moment, Xero did as he was told.
For the first time, Xero felt what it was like to cooperate with his brother.
...
The cat division had retreated, only Wu Lei, Little One and Lu Xian remained by the gym doors.
On the side lay Su Wanqing, who had already been wrapped up by Wu Lei and the other cats like a mantou...
Wu Lei gripped Xero's paws as tears pooled in its eyes. "It was amazing to fight side by side with Almighty Nine Tails this time! I really appreciate the opportunity! Don't worry Almighty Nine Tails, our engineering team will repair that wall specially for you!"
Xero: "..." He had recalled when he had saw an engineering team in Wu Lei's base, it wasn't that surprising, by two or four years, they would have built their own f**king nukes!
Xero didn't say anything and kept his astonishment in the depths of his heart as he waved goodbye to Wu Lei and the other cats.
Broken-hearted by their departure, he followed Xero with their eyes and waved their little paws.
To be able to fight alongside Almighty Nine Tails was an opportunity never to miss!
This time, if it wasn't for Wu Lei's help, who knew what could've happened...
Xero had barely left Wu Lei's line of sight when he felt an unfamiliar aura approaching...
That was Ancient Relic!
Xero stretched out his spiritual senses and saw that not too far away, Ancient Relic and Director Yue were holding hands strolling side by side, as they were drawing closer and closer.
Tianrui was also taken aback by the sudden appearance of these people and decided to approach them himself. "Hello teachers."
It was time for him to display his acting skills!
Director Yue froze -- why was there a family member at school grounds at this time? It was very unusual and she had especially notified the guards to not let anyone inside the school after four PM and teachers-in-charge not to keep students in after classes were over, in order to prevent those who wear the masks of protectors yet harvest from chaos.
Therefore, Ancient Relic and Yue Tianshen were instantly cautious of Tianrui.
This wasn't the strangest thing; there was also a woman wrapped up like a mantou? Was this a fetish or just cosplay kinks?
"And you're...?"
"I'm Zhang Huoji, Xero's older brother. I'm here to look for Zhang Xero." Tianrui showed his ID Card.
"Oh~~! Xero's older brother you say?"
After checking the ID Card and confirming his identity, he looked over to Director Yue. "Yeah. It's genuine. Xero's my student, he's here for the spirit sword exchange."
"I see..." Hearing Ancient Relic's explanation, she relaxed her guard and looked over to Tianrui. "So, what are you doing here at this time?"
"I was looking for Xero at first, but I encountered a Golden Badge Assassin and had to deal with her, which wasted some of my time..." He perked a thumb to the "mantou" on the ground.
"Shadow Emblem Golden Badge Assassin..."
Director Yue was shocked! An assassin had actually sneaked in and gotten in the school -- this was a serious matter!
"Do you have proof that it's an assassin specifically from that organisation?" Director Yue was still suspicious about the girl's identity and Ancient Relic also had some doubts. They had no reason to trust a stranger's words.
"If you two don't believe me, have a look at the large tied golden dragon badge around her neck to verify the truth for yourselves."
This ribbon belonging to a Shadow Emblem assassin was made of special material! And was direct proof of the killers' identity.
Ancient Relic inspected the dragon badge and gasped.
A real... Shadow Emblem assassin!
He was unusually sensitive to topics that had to do with the world of killers.
Moreover, looking at this woman tied up like a mantou and judging by the two melons that contain weapons which were still too big to be covered up, Ancient Relic wondered... was this the Master of the Ranks at Golden Badge?!
