Chapter 384

Adam’s lips curled upward, naive? I want to see just who is the naive one.

He closed his eyes, and the exact location of the man from just now appeared in his mind, fid you really think I was just purely talking to you?

Adam opened his eyes, his figure flashed, and he disappeared from the room, following the location in his mind, he swiftly chased after the middle-aged man.

He had to act quickly, not because he was worried the other party would escape, he had planted a divine soul mark using the Primal Chaotic Azure Lotus.

The number of existences in this world capable of erasing it could be counted on one hand.

This was a newly discovered use for the Primal Chaotic Azure Lotus, and it was quite handy, rather, he was worried that if the other party was too careless, their superiors might notice something amiss.

He crossed street after street, eventually arriving at a bustling avenue, Adam knew this place, it was North City’s famous merchant district, those who lived here were all prestigious families and wealthy magnates.

The most dangerous place is the safest place, these guys are quite good at disguising themselves.

Adam had inspected this place before, but because there were many guards and numerous experts, it was impossible to thoroughly investigate every household.

The middle-aged man arrived at the back door of a remarkably grand mansion, after the guards carefully inspected him, he entered the estate.

Adam crushed a jade pendant, this was to notify the Book Saint that a situation had arisen.

He didn’t act rashly, instead, he hid in the shadows, carefully observing, he discovered that the estate was heavily guarded, even at the back door, every person entering or leaving underwent strict interrogation.

The status of the master here was clearly extraordinary, this was highly likely the core of the mysterious organization.

Adam circled around to the main entrance, he wanted to see whose estate this was.

When he saw the plaque hung high up, he was taken aback, on it were three large characters, City Lord’s Estate.

Adam took a deep breath, this was unexpected, the mysterious organization was actually colluding with the City Lord’s Estate.

Could this be bait thrown out by the Heavenly Court to lure the Book Saint to their doorstep? No, probably not.

If the Heavenly Court wanted to make a move, they wouldn’t need such trouble, their methods would be completely nonsensical, like they had nothing better to do.

Adam shook his head, denying his own thoughts, but he decided to err on the side of caution, he would tell the Book Saint and discuss the next step.

He turned to leave, but before he had gone far, an intense sense of crisis suddenly washed over him.

The azure sky turned grayish-purple, and all the people around him disappeared, it was as if Adam was the only person left in the world.

Ding! The Primal Chaotic Azure Lotus within his divine soul swayed slightly, and the scene before his eyes shattered like a mirror.

Right in front of Adam, a pale blue sword had shockingly appeared.

His body retreated violently, hurriedly dodging the sword.

"Oh? How did you break free? Is your divine soul strength really that high?"

A figure slowly walked out from the shadows, he had a slender build, appeared very young, and wore a blue robe, the sword flew backward into his hand, giving him the demeanor of a Sword Immortal.

Adam frowned, he hadn’t expected the other party to attack directly on the street.

"Don’t worry, a barrier has been set up here, putsiders cannot see what is happening in this alley!" The figure seemed to see through Adam’s doubts.

"Who are you?" Adam asked in a deep voice, mobilizing the spiritual energy in his body, ready for battle, the opponent was an expert at the Seventh Heaven of the Deity Realm.

The man smiled faintly. "Who am I? I’d rather ask who you are, why have you been looking for us? And even tracking our people!"

The corners of Adam’s mouth curled up, without blushing or skipping a beat, he said, "That disciple from the Burning Fire Sect was my close friend, he disappeared inexplicably, so naturally I have to investigate."

The man frowned, clearly not believing Adam’s explanation, but he didn’t press further. "No matter what your objective is, you’d best not interfere with our affairs anymore, otherwise, you’ll face the consequences."

Adam’s heart stirred, the other party didn’t know his relationship with the Book Saint, he decided to test the waters. "I naturally have no desire to interfere with your affairs, but if you’re related to the Heavenly Court, then I cannot sit idly by."

The man sneered, his voice playful. "Heavenly Court? You know of the Heavenly Court, which means you’re from the Heaven-Slaying Society? Then you cannot be left alive!"

Without another word, he raised his sword and thrust it directly at Adam.

Adam’s figure blurred, swiftly dodging, if he hadn’t recently broken through and was still at the Fifth Heaven, facing this man might have been difficult, but having reached the Sixth Heaven, it wasn’t much of a challenge.

A sword appeared in his hand, Adam moved like the wind, turning into an afterimage to evade the longsword, while his sword transformed into multiple sword shadows.

"Sword Opening the Heavenly Gate!"

Surprise flashed in the man’s eyes, he hadn’t expected Adam’s strength to be so formidable, nor his sword technique to be no weaker than his own, he could even launch a counterattack.

His figure blurred into a blue afterimage, nimbly evading Adam’s sword shadows, while his longsword turned into a blue rainbow, piercing toward Adam’s chest.

Adam smiled faintly, raised his sword, and formed a golden sword gleam that met it head-on, the two bursts of sword qi refused to yield to each other.

Horror flashed in the man’s eyes, the aura of the guy in front of him was only at the Sixth Heaven of the Deity Realm, a whole major realm lower than himself, how could they be fighting to a standstill?
