1189 Obey or Be Executed! (1/2)

At the square of the Joyous Palace.

Tang Xiu stood quietly on the two-meter high square concrete platform, watching the surrounding environment. Ever since he landed here, he was keenly aware that the concentration of the world's energy in this place was several times stronger than that of Kyoto.

And… it wasn't due to an array! It was caused by a small spiritual vein deep under the isolated island that connected to the deep ocean floor. However, something made him curious. Someone, apparently a powerful expert with astonishing magical power, had sealed it off to only spread out for about tens of kilometers radius at most This isolated island could have been transformed into a paradise on earth otherwise.

Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!

A group of moving figures flickered fast from afar and quickly appeared in front of Tang Xiu. The excited-looking Mo Awu, Tang Guang, Kuwako Yamamato, Hei Xiong, and Xue Sha… everyone was focusing on Tang Xiu.

The harvest they just obtained was great.

Even the invisible Tang An was also wearing a beaming face. What she obtained was even more than Mo Awu and the rest, and she stuffed all those valuable stuff into the interspatial ring Tang Xiu bestowed her.

”Where's Gong Wan'er?”

Finally, Tang Xiu took back the vision that set to the distance and shifted to the crowd in front of him.

”She left with Kitagawa and hasn't returned yet,” answered Kuwako.

Tang Xiu frowned and slowly said, ”We'll wait for another half an hour. But if they still don't come back in time, we won't wait for them any longer.”

20 minutes later.

Two fast-moving figures bolted from afar and soon appeared in front of Tang Xiu and the rest. The two people who returned this time brought two big black suitcases each. It was evident that they were carrying heavy objects given how they put those suitcases on the ground.

”Where did you just head to?” asked Tang Xiu lightly after carefully observing them.

Kitagawa angrily glared at Gong Wan'er before he cupped his fists and replied immediately, ”We went to the Gene Camp's stronghold, Boss!”

”What for?” asked Tang Xiu with a frown.

”General Fukuda has been operating in Japan for centuries, so we thought that he definitely hoarded a lot of treasures there,” answered Kitagawa. ”That's why I headed there with Gong Wan'er. We also exterminated the remaining genetic warriors those Buddhist Sect's monks have missed, and sneaked into the stronghold and found the Gene Camp's secret vault. The things in these four suitcases were taken from the Gene Camp's treasure vault and many more things are still on the shore.”

Tang Xiu's brows raised and he ordered. ”Open them.”

Immediately, the four big black suitcases were opened and a surprised expression appeared in Tang Xiu's eyes. There was no gold or silver in those suitcases, three of which contained some precious jewelry, jade, some antique paintings, and calligraphies. But the last one was full of precious herbs even to Tang Xiu.

”Well done.”

Tang Xiu waved and all the objects in the four suitcases flew up and quickly entered his interspatial ring. Then, he took out two jade bottles and threw them to Kitagawa and Gong Wan'er, speaking to them lightly, ”You've made a contribution, and these pills are your rewards. Wait until I've sorted everything up and I'll bestow you another great fortune.”

Some great fortune?

Kitagawa exchanged glances with Gong Wan'er. But when he was about to leave to take the rest of the loot, the latter suddenly said, ”Boss, will Kitagawa be punished if I report what he did?”

Tang Xiu squinted and asked, ”What exactly do you want to report?”

Kitagawa's expression enormously changed and shouted fiercely, ”Cut the crap, Gong Wan'er!”

Gong Wan'er took out a string of golden rope the size of a chopstick from her sleeve and said, ”This is the treasure we obtained from the Gene Camp's vault. I have no idea what this thing is. Also, Kitagawa kept the other one, but it's a fist-sized metal ball which I have no idea what is it either.”

Kitagawa's face changed dramatically and glared at her with hostility. Then, he spoke very unwillingly, ”What I took from the Gene Camp's vault was originally mine, Boss. It has a special meaning to me.”

”Just take it out,” said Tang Xiu.

Kitagawa shivered a bit and gritted his teeth as he took out the fist-sized metal ball from his sleeves. Then, he said, ”This is it. It's just a common thing.”

Tang Xiu's eyes flickered as he noticed the small runes etched on the metal ball. A suction force suddenly shot from his palm and attracted the metal ball in Kitagawa's hand. He then cast a secret art and applied it to the object, causing golden light to suddenly glow from the seal rune and gradually turn into a dazzling golden star.

Crack!
