Chapter 141 - A Night for Killing
As for spirit stones, the Special Task Force was probably the only organization capable of procuring so many of them without a care.
If Lu Xuan were to go about collecting such stones on his own, there was no telling just how long it would take him to collect that many.
“I have my sources,” Lu Xuan said. There was no way he would have told her that he knew about it due to memories from his past life.
However, what Lu Xuan did say only make Ming Yueyao find him even more enigmatic. She wondered just what kind of legacy he possessed that made it possible for him to have such powers.
“Although I have no idea where you heard such news, I don’t think that will be much of a problem, either,” Ming Yueyao said, nodding.
Trading four pillars that the agency had no idea what to do with for methods of crafting runic ammunition was, without a doubt, quite a bargain.
Regardless of the four pillars’ uses, nothing could be as practical and valuable to the Special Task Force at the moment as the secret of the runic ammunition.
A faint purple barrier was erected in midair, and the representatives of the Special Task Force thought their eyes were playing tricks on them. The faint purple color of the barrier was not all that obvious, and it disappeared into the night before long.
“The four pillars are actually meant for setting up a barrier!” Someone from the agency gasped in surprise. No one had guessed that the pillars were actually meant to be used for setting up a formation.
The four sacred beasts—the Azure Dragon, the White Tiger, the Vermilion Bird, and the Black Tortoise—took their positions in their respective directions, sealing the area within the formation.
Then, they saw Lu Xuan walking right into the barrier, after setting it all up with great speed.
Suddenly, a man was spotted walking into the brightly lit compound of the clan out of nowhere, which attracted the attention of the fighters on night guard duty.
“Who goes there?” One of them shouted. Then, a pebble zipped through the air and lodged itself right into the guard’s throat before he had a chance to react. Blood splattered everywhere as the man dropped dead on the spot.
