Chapter 1785 - 805: Bone Tiger_2

Immortal.

Immortals, gods, cultivators, they have many names, but they always refer to those in ancient records who could soar through the skies, traverse the earth, and do the impossible!

Nowadays, immortals have become elusive, with only treasure fragments left in the mortal world, merely referred to as... Artifacts.

Even as artifacts, their power is extraordinary. If one could obtain the Immortal Relics and acquire a complete artifact, that would be... a true Immortal Treasure!

Then, the Third Prince who wields such a thing, apart from the one above, who else in the world is his match!

"This matter must not be publicized or spread. After I discuss with the Third Prince, we will make further decisions."

"Yes!"

"Everything awaits Mr. Xu’s arrangement!"

"Thank you, Mr. Xu, for your effort!"

Mr. Xu laughed heartily again.

These compliments made him feel immensely pleased.

"It’s all for the Third Prince, there’s no such thing as effort; you’ve overcredited me, overcredited me! Hahahaha!"

The unique voice was unpleasant to hear, but no one dared show it.

Once the feast was over, Mr. Xu discreetly disguised himself and left the residence to secretly head to... Anqiao Pavilion.

In a secret chamber.

Mr. Xu respectfully handed over the items.

"The Red Immortal Relic, hm... I’ve heard about it. There were always fragmented news coming from that border area, but its whereabouts were unknown. Didn’t expect Mr. Xu to have the means to obtain such an item."

"Chance coincidence, sheer luck..."

In front of this lord, Mr. Xu was extremely cautious and nervous, completely different from his previous complacency at the residence.

"I’ll take the items. I’ll send them back to you in a couple of days."

"Yes! Yes!"

Mr. Xu dared not show any sloppiness and slowly retreated.

After Mr. Xu left the secret chamber...

Hiss.

In the darkness, a candle suddenly ignited, illuminating part of this person’s silhouette, and a set of the latest documents on the table.

"Hei Ao, from Tianyuan Town, Jue Sect Disciple, when in combat, his skin is covered in a black hue, using a unique cultivation technique to seal..."

Two fingers picked up the page and burned it to ashes using the candle flame.

The person in the dark slowly stood up and blew out the candle.

At that moment, one could see the token hanging at their waist, with a prominently engraved... ’Seven’ character.

"Second brother, is this your doing... how could our royal family’s bloodline, the Emperor’s abilities, appear in a minor character from a mere borderland? And still... so weak!"

"If this really is your handiwork, then seventh brother can only, clean the house on behalf of the family!"

...

Underground organization base.

"Mi Tu, why did you call me back in such a hurry?"

Zhuge Shi said discontentedly.

He was quite interested in a certain man right now.

He was just about to find an opportunity to probe that man further.

Unexpectedly, he received a notification from the organization and had to return to the organization base first.

However, Zhuge Shi’s discontent improved considerably upon seeing the two slaves, number 99 and number 100, standing beside Mi Tu.

"Got it done so quickly? As expected, you are indeed the one with the strongest abilities in this aspect within the organization. Slave 99, Slave 100, listen to orders! Come over here!"

The people beside Mi Tu, like spirit slaves receiving orders, walked over to Zhuge Shi and stood there like robots, waiting for the next command.

"A bit stiff."

Zhuge Shi said discontentedly.

"Give them more tasks, and they will become more flexible."

Mi Tu said coldly, paused, and continued.

"This time you are called back not by me. But by Bone Tiger."

Zhuge Shi sneered.

"Bone Tiger? He has no right to order..."

"It’s a command from the Master."

"..."

Zhuge Shi fell silent.

She frowned and said: "Did the Master come? Isn’t he in the Imperial Palace?"

Mi Tu replied coldly, "You don’t need to worry about that, you just need to know the command has been issued. Whether you execute it or not is up to you. I’m only responsible for notifying."

Zhuge Shi’s expression darkened.

She disliked the tone Mi Tu used to speak with her!

However, considering Mi Tu’s status and importance in the organization, she held back her displeasure.

But her voice became colder as well.

"Tell me, what does the Master want us to do?"

"Eliminate someone."

"... Who?"

"Mr. Xu, the favorite beside the Third Prince—Xu Changzui!"

"That old thing?"

An image of an old eunuch vaguely appeared in Zhuge Shi’s mind, and her brow furrowed slightly.

Being heavily relied upon by a prince, the old thing’s strength is naturally extraordinary. To kill such an important figure, truth be told, it’s exceptionally difficult; any slight mistake could lead to significant trouble.

"Just Bone Tiger and me?"

"Don’t rush; Deceit Rat and Qianshe will also act, but they haven’t arrived in the Capital yet. Shadow Monkey might also participate, but he is too unpredictable; currently, it’s planned for the four of you to act together."

Zhuge Shi sneered.

"He’s coming too? No need! Just us is more than enough!"

Mi Tu glanced at her, "Confidence is good, but make sure not to fail and ruin the Master’s plan."

"Hmph!"

To this, Zhuge Shi just snorted coldly.

She disliked Mi Tu, and she disliked others in the organization, especially Shadow Monkey, that arrogant guy was particularly detestable to Zhuge Shi.

"By the way, you don’t need to investigate the Jue Sect matter anymore; I have some leads."

Suddenly remembering something, Zhuge Shi said.

But Mi Tu shook her head.

"It must be investigated, and the effort must be intensified. Now, it’s found that the Jue Sect people might have connections with the court. If so, it poses a threat to the organization."

"The court?"

Zhuge Shi was taken aback.

She was just investigating that man’s connection with the Jue Sect, how could it involve the court as well.

"A mere Jue Sect? Are they even qualified to connect with the court? Don’t they know the court was the earliest to start raising demons? As for now, how many demons the court harbors, perhaps even that old Emperor isn’t clear!"

Zhuge Shi said with a sneer, and Mi Tu did not accommodate her.

"This is none of our business; the organization will continue to investigate the network behind Jue Sect. When you are needed, you will act. In the meantime, don’t get involved with Jue Sect to avoid trouble."

"No need for you to worry; I’ll manage my affairs, not you!"

Taking Slave 99 and Slave 100 with her, Zhuge Shi left in strides.

Watching Zhuge Shi’s departing figure, Mi Tu’s expression grew colder.

Zhuge Shi doesn’t like her, and she doesn’t like Zhuge Shi, either; lacking discipline, acting independently, reckless, and without rules, she’s practically a walking trouble magnet.

Turning away, she resumed working on the research and improvement of the Slaves.

Not long after, a figure suddenly appeared behind her, and in the darkness, a pair of bone hands, noting any flesh or blood attached, emerged, embracing Mi Tu!

"!!!"

Mi Tu was initially startled and then shouted angrily.

"Bone Tiger! Let go!"

A flippant voice came from behind and released the large bone hands.

"Why such a temper still, right, what about that pink hair? Wasn’t she supposed to arrive in the Capital before me? Why isn’t she here?"

Mi Tu turned back coldly, seeing a humanoid skeleton composed of bones.

"Cover your flesh; this is the Capital. Exposing flaws indiscriminately and drawing trouble in, when the Master blames us, you’ll pay dearly."

The words ’the Master’ seemingly held sway.

The skeleton chuckled lightly, and from within its bones, marrow seemed to secrete outwards quickly covering its white bones, coagulating into flesh.

Like living bone breathing flesh into life, soon, a tall, handsome, robust male was formed.

"Still enjoys being angry; don’t worry, I’ll cover up flesh when outside."

Bone Tiger spread his hands, looking helpless yet affectionate, seemingly infatuated with Mi Tu.

But everyone in the organization knew he acted this way with every woman, making it nauseating.
