71 City Lord? (1/2)
CHAPTER 71
The chaos inside the auction hall is still rampaging but on the outside, everything looks fine. That is because the people attacking the auction house put an illusion barrier just outside the Auction House with a rare talisman called: Barriers Of Illusion. The barrier covered the entire land where the Auction House was, thus no one was able to find any difference.
Michael continued to run through the chaos happening in the auction hall. He carried Jing Fei on his arms like a princess. He is trying to find a place for Jing Fei for her to stay safe, but so far he hasn't found one.
Jing Fei started drooling as she looked at his face and Michael is thinking too much, so he hadn't notice it yet. Her pupils in her eyes turned into a heart shape inside her pupils.
She quickly wiped away her drool for Michael not to notice.
After minutes of searching, Michael decided to just buy a protection talisman in the shop after he didn't find any safe locations for Jing Fei to stay in.
He secretly brought out his phone, just enough for Jing Fei not to notice. He quickly bought a barrier talisman that can protect Jing Fei from any attacks above the Nascent Soul Stage. It cost him 50,000 PP to buy that.
\”Jing Fei, where is the direction of your father?\” He asked her.
\”Over there\” She pointed at a broken wall at a VIP room, that seems to be flashing with light.
\”Thank you\” Michael quickly disappeared from his spot and appeared inside that VIP room.
But when they arrived, he saw Jing Jin without his left arm fighting against a Blond Woman.
She is a fairly young, tall, slender woman with short, middle-parted hair and a prominent nose. She wore a dark-colored skirt suit. But the strangest thing he saw is the gun she was holding. (Yes there are guns in this novel, deal with it) He thought that guns don't exist in this world but apparently he was wrong.
\”Give up City Lord, you have already lost,\” The blond woman said calmly. She seems to be a calm and collected person. Rare for someone so young.
\”Never! You spiders have been a thorn on our side for far too long! If I were able to capture you, we will be able to extract your memories to find out about the insides and outs of the spiders\” Jing Jin said stubbornly.
\”You have already lost your left arm, just tell me where you put that treasure or else I will kill you here,\” She said in a monotone voice as she raised her gun, pointing at Jing Jin's head.
Michael put Jing Fei down on the ground and activated the Protection Talisman. The talisman released a barrier covering Jing Fei. She still can move around just a little inside the barrier.
The blond woman took notice of Michael when he laid down the protection talisman. She pointed her gun at him and with a single move of a finger, it shot. A violet bullet came out of the barrel on the gun, it shot directly to the head of Michael.
But Michael calmly looks at the speeding bullet and in a tiny fraction of a millisecond, he caught it.
She didn't look surprised when he caught the bullet, but instead, she continued to rain more bullets at him.
Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang Bang!
Michael pulled out a blade and deflected all of them easily.
Ting Ting Ting Ting Ting Ting Ting!
The City Lord took this opportunity and attacked her, but as he neared her she took out another gun and pointed it at Jing Jin's head. He was stopped from his tracks as he felt the cold hard steel of the barrel on his head.
\”Don't think for a second that I will let my guard down\” She said in a monotone voice as she clicks the rear end of her gun.
The gun was colored in a golden design, it had patterns going down from its barrel to its handle. It had a name on it and it says, Pa Ku.
\”City Lord, just tell me where that treasure is and we will all go out of here happy\” She calmly said.
\”Hmph, like I'll give that orb to you people. That orb is too dangerous to be left in the hands of thieves like you\” Jing Jin said as he smiled stubbornly.
\”Then die\” And with that, she pulled the trigger on her gun.
\”City Lord!\” Michael shouted.
Michael quickly moved away from his position to save Jing Jin, but he was too late.
