From Abyssal Invasion to Bursting Stars with a Single Sword

At that moment, Liu Lanying suddenly spoke up, "Child, leave, don't worry about me. I've longed to be reunited with your teacher."

027 looked up, his pair of pitch-black eyes glaring angrily, and he said with anger, "So you're willing to be a lapdog for the creator, huh?"

This time, he didn't cover his eyes with multicolored colors, and Lu Heng saw anger in them.

He wore a black mask on his face, so only his eyes were visible; from these eyes, one could tell that he wasn't very old, probably in his twenties.

"It was you who invited me into creator," Lu Heng retorted, "Do you have any right to talk?"

"Let me take the madam and leave, we can settle our issues at another time," 027 said with a hint of urgency in his voice.

Because 013 was nearby, and if he couldn't quickly get Liu Lanying away, once 013 returned, they wouldn't be able to escape.

Lu Heng frowned and thought for a moment, feeling that taking advantage of the situation seemed somewhat inappropriate.

Moreover, there was no hostility between Lu Heng and 027, in fact, there was a bit of gratitude.

So he didn't want to see them die at the hands of creator organization.

Thus, Lu Heng slowly withdrew the force in his hands, preparing to let them go.

Just then,

a crow's caw came from outside the window, and 013, transformed into a Black Crow, flew in from outside.

027 reacted quickly, letting go of Lu Heng's hand, raised his palm, and spread his five fingers to release a shockwave, pushing the Black Crow out of the room.

013 returned to human form, hovering mid-air, and clashed with 027 using a Spiritual Field.

Both were top-notch Superpower Users of the Spiritual system, and while it seemed there were no physical attacks on the surface, they were crushing each other with their Spiritual Fields.

The collision of the two spiritual powers created a whirlwind that rustled the trees in the courtyard.

Leaves tore off the trees due to the spiritual power and whirled upward with the wind, forming a spiral column of leafy twister.

Lu Heng followed out into the courtyard and saw the two clashing with their spiritual powers in mid-air, not joining the battle immediately.

At that moment,

due to the commotion of the clash of their spiritual powers, many people in the sanatorium were alerted.

Lights began to turn on in the three buildings one after another.

Security personnel, holding flashlights, saw people flying mid-air and the winds breaking the trees in the courtyard.

The situation was clearly a battle between Superpower Users.

Such matters were beyond the means of ordinary security personnel, so they didn't step forward to intervene and immediately ran back to the guard room to call for help.

...

In the courtyard, the clash of spiritual powers between 027 and 013 intensified.

013 spoke up, "027, hand over the organization's Holy Artifact, and we can discuss the other matters."

027 snorted coldly, "That's also called a Holy Artifact? Just some cursed object for a Demon to cling to life."

013 continued to persuade, "I can assure you, if you just return the Holy Artifact, the organization won't pursue your desertion."

027 snorted again, "I never joined your organization in the first place, so what desertion are you talking about?"

The situation was indeed unique.

The member with the designation 027 in creator organization was actually Chen Xuesong, a professor from Kyoto University Biological Energy Research Institute.

And the current 027 had taken Chen Xuesong's identity, infiltrating the creator organization.

Strictly speaking, this 027 had never joined the organization.

Seeing negotiation was futile, 013, the Black Crow, turned to Lu Heng and ordered, "028, aren't you going to make a move? Cut off his limbs first."

Hearing this, 027 immediately tensed up.

Because he was well aware of Lu Heng's Combat Power, let alone the fact that he was currently clashing with 013 using spiritual power, he couldn't confront Lu Heng directly even without 013 in the picture.

He immediately spoke, "Lu Heng, I'm aware of everything you've done in creator, and once I'm caught, you'll be next."

This indeed was a problem.

Once 027 was taken by the organization for interrogation, the acts he had committed previously could very well be exposed.

013 even felt that 027's Spiritual Field was not inferior to his own.

Without a third party's help, this standoff wouldn't yield a winner anytime soon.

Moreover, he couldn't afford to delay here much longer.

The sanatorium's security must have already called the police, and it wouldn't be long before Iron Blood's people would arrive, and then he'd be facing pursuit from Iron Blood.

013 spoke gravely, "028, regardless of whatever you've done in the past, I promise that I'll absolve you of it from this moment forward. Just capture 027, and I assure you, you'll only have merit, not faults."

This offer was quite tempting.

Unfortunately, 013 had no idea what exactly Lu Heng had done.

Killing a member of the organization was hardly worth mentioning.

The real issue lay with the Sikes Biotechnology Information, a significant trap that would greatly harm creator organization.

It was doubtful that 013's rank could handle such a big mess.

Lu Heng looked at 013 and asked, "Are you sure you can handle everything?"

013 paused for a moment, sensing something dangerous in Lu Heng's words, but he still promised, "I'm sure, no matter what you did, the organization will not hold you accountable. If you're still not at ease, you can just kill 027 as a way of silencing him. Just make sure to retrieve the organization's Holy Artifact before you do."

His words were incredibly cunning.

Indeed, Lu Heng was concerned about the possibility of 027 divulging information detrimental to him if he fell into the hands of creator.

Killing him outright would permanently eliminate any future threat.

However, Lu Heng did not act immediately, but instead turned his head to survey the surroundings.

At that moment,

a roar came from the direction of the gate, as Derek Wolf in Werewolf Form smashed through the entrance and charged in, furiously roaring at 027 in the air.

Once again, he'd been played by 027, running in circles outside before realizing something was wrong and rushing back.
