Absolute Double Power
Verse-39

Along the corridor leading to Xi Xia's room, the bodyguards were already lined up on standby.

Shin Wu pushed the door and burst into the room. Then quickly check every corner of the room to make sure no other intruders are hiding.

Xi Xia followed inside shortly afterwards, followed by four bodyguards ready to fortify him.

There were no signs of forced demolition, or searches all over the place.

The room looked the same as when Xi Xia left it last time.

Shin Wu exposed every curtain and looked out the window, while Xi Xia began to inspect every desk drawer and cupboard to make sure none of his belongings were missing.

"It's weird" he murmured with a frown.

Shin Wu turned to Xi Xia and approached him.

The guards kept watchful around.

"Nothing is missing?" asked Shin Wu unsure.

"Nothing," Xi Xia shook his head quickly. "Everything is intact and these drawers seem untouched."

"I don't think the intruder had time to get in here" Shin Wu concluded. "Maybe the guards caught him."

"They said the intruder came out of my room" Xi Xia said. "The window was closed when I came out!" Xi Xia pointed at the first window Shin Wu came to when he entered the room.

Shin turned to the window and remembered the window was open when he entered. "That's weird," he murmured.

"That's what I said just now," Xi Xia refuted as she glared at her brother.

Shin Wu let out a short sigh and relaxed his body. A long, exhausting night! thought. Then lead Xi Xia out to return to the banquet hall.

A number of guards were placed in front of the door of Xi Xia's room starting tonight. They usually only guard at the gate of the estate or patrol the grounds.

By the early hours of the morning, the noble guests had already flocked out of the governor's palace past the fearsome lion statue curled up at the gate.

Hua Zu also mingled in that line, flanked by Shin Wu and Xi Xia.

Not far from the gate, the carriage of the nobles was lined up along the road waiting for their master.

An amazingly stunning carriage was already waiting for Hua Zu among the chariots of the nobles with a sais who was no less stunning—Dai Xiao Yu-sang sea god.

The noble guests gasped at the golden chariot that had appeared out of nowhere, for there was no such chariot in this world except in the fairytale land. Especially since the horseman also looked like an imaginary figure.

This man is really full of surprises, thought Shin Wu. Is she still the Hua Zu I know?

Hua Zu smiled faintly as Shin Wu turned to him with a flurry of unspoken questions demanding answers.

"There's still a lot of time, Shin Wu," Hua Zu said meaningfully, then turned to Xi Xia and nodded his head in a fleeting plea of self.

Xi Xia nodded back while smiling sadly. Will we meet again? thought grimly.

Then when Hua Zu started to climb into the carriage, the black cat on Xi Xia's lap jumped after the man.

Xi Xia flinched and scrambled to catch the little cat.

Unexpectedly, the cat stopped near Hua Zu's carriage and bowed towards the man, followed by all the horses that were all over the place along the exit including those of the nobles.

The crowd was screaming watching it.

"Who is this person to the point that the animals just pay their respects?" they were wondering at each other, with no one able to answer their uniform questions.

Shin Wu exchanged glances with Xi Xia with round eyes.

Tian Xu paled on his horse. Tian Xu's horse also bowed to Hua Zu.

The nobles gradually left as Hua Zu's carriage drifted away.

"Find out who the Nephilim are!" tio Jun commands with sign language to his guards which is automatically responded by bending over.

Tian Xu glanced at the horde of Tio Jun with an agitated look, then darted spurting his horse in the opposite direction to Hua Zu's carriage.

A moment later, a group of horsemen burst out following the Hua Zu carriage which looked like it was hovering on the ground.

"Newly last night exposing the face already got many fans," Xiao Yu clucked and shook his head.

Hua Zu only faintly smiled in response, remaining seated quietly in his carriage while the clamorous Tio Jun was already getting closer behind them.

Two of them stretched out their arcs aiming at the window of Hua Zu's carriage, while the others prepared to draw a sword.

SLASHY!

Two shadow bodyguards of aerokinesis expert Tio Jun soared into the air and shot a number of daggers towards Xiao Yu.

Simultaneously, the archers opened fire towards the window.

Hua Zu smiled again.

Xiao Yu tightened his horse's harness and in an instant the mount wriggled and transformed into a black dragon according to the color of the horse.

The horses of the pursuers behind them instantly flinched and soared furiously throwing their riders to slam and fall.

At the same time, the aerokinesis experts who were hovering were also blown away by the burst of flames in the dragon's mouth.

Hua Zu smiled faintly as he shook his head. "Remember where we are now" he warned Xiao Yu. "Stop wasting the energy of the universe on trivial things."

"Just a little magic," Xiao Yu said. "In addition to the many god races that were crushed, it should have helped the earth energy recover a little!"

"Their energy stones are hoarded for the personal benefit of certain groups" Hua Zu argued. "Human resources are really dying. You don't expect them to suffer much longer, do you?"

"Who is going down to earth?" grumbled Xiao Yu.

"You know Long Yue has not perished, the universe needs a new order to build a new earth" Hua Zu said in a flat murmur.

"I thought this was about Yeliushen?" Xiao Yu looked back and frowned.

"Submit New Yeliushen!" tukas Hua Zu's.

"I thought that meant the renewal of Yeliushen!" refute Xiao Yu.

"You mean renewing the rogues?" dengus Hua Zu's. "What's right?"

"Are you talking about Jian?" the Xiao Yu.

"You're the chief of the bandit sect?" reply Hua Zu.

"I came down to earth as a Flood!" mukas Xiao Yu.

"And I descended to earth as the Sword of Ilojim" Hua Zu said.

"Isn't it time yet?" Xiao Yu frowned, responding seriously to Hua Zu's expression.

"What are you thinking?" tegur Hua Zu's. "The Ilojim sword is not used for harvests on earth, but to uncover the veil of the temple!"

"Does that mean you'll bring the human race back to Shangri-La?" asked Xiao Yu.

"You are the god of the ocean, your understanding should be deeper than the ocean" Hua Zu said.

Xiao Yu laughed at himself. Then he screamed in surprise, "Oh, no! You don't intend to destroy yourself anymore, do you?"
