The sound of metal clashing.
Crisp and jarring.
That dagger that should have easily pierced Lin Yang's body.
But at that moment, it was as if it had hit something indestructible and was bounced back forcefully.
Sadi Peng's face turned deathly pale instantly.
He stared wide-eyed at Lin Yang, utterly astonished.
"How can this be?!"
As he spoke, he gripped the dagger in his hand, suddenly activated it, and his body turned into a wisp of green smoke.
They vanished without a trace.
The next second, a sharp aura suddenly appeared beside Lin Yang.
Sadi Peng, dressed in black and masked, appeared out of nowhere.
He stared coldly at Lin Yang:
"How did you see through me?"
Lin Yang looked at him expressionlessly and said calmly:
"Your eyes betrayed you right when you were taking the picture."
Sadi Peng's pupils contracted.
She never expected that her carefully crafted disguise would be seen through by Lin Yang at a glance.
He snorted coldly, his tone revealing a hint of disdain:
"Hmph, I knew I underestimated you."
"But so what if you see through my identity?"
"You think you can stop me from leaving?"
As he spoke, he activated the dagger again, his body turning into a wisp of smoke, about to disappear.
However, at this moment.
A thunderclap suddenly resounded in the sky, and a thick bolt of lightning struck not far away.
Sadi Peng's voice abruptly stopped.
His body was struck by lightning and instantly turned into charred remains.
"How, how is this possible? How could you break my invisibility?" Sadipeng's voice was filled with disbelief.
Lin Yang remained expressionless as he approached Sadi Peng step by step.
"Is it great?"
Sadi Peng couldn't help but say, "That, that's the power of my artifact spirit, how could you possibly..."
Lin Yang shook his head.
He kicked Sadi Peng hard.
This kick was powerful and heavy.
However, at this moment.
The dagger in Sadi Peng's hand suddenly transformed into a fat man, blocking his way.
This fat man looks rather simple and honest.
But he exuded a powerful aura.
"Crack!"
A crisp sound
The fat man's body shattered instantly, turning into specks of starlight that dissipated into the air.
Sadi Peng was struck dumb, frozen in place.
"My spirit..."
He cried out in anguish, "You...you actually destroyed my artifact's spirit!"
Lin Yang calmly replied, "So what?"
Sadi Peng suddenly looked up at Lin Yang, his eyes revealing a deep-seated hatred:
"We, the Nine Ministers, will not let you get away with this, absolutely not!"
After saying those words, Sadipeng finally breathed his last.
His body went limp and fell to the ground.
"The Nine Ministers?"
Wang Zhenqiu walked forward curiously and glanced at Sadi Peng twice:
"This guy is actually one of the Nine Ministers?"
Fatty Wang also came over, looking puzzled:
"Old Wang, do you know what these Nine Ministers are?"
Wang Zhenqiu stroked his chin and explained:
"You've probably heard of NaDuTong, right?"
"That's an organization that specifically manages us Outcasts."
"But in this world, besides us superhumans, there are also Spirit Masters, and the Spirit Management Bureau is responsible for managing them."
"Spirit Master?" Fatty Wang scratched his head. "What's that?"
“Spirit Masters are different from us supernatural beings.”
"They relied on the power of the artifact spirit."
Wang Zhenqiu continued:
"A weapon spirit, as the name suggests, is a weapon that possesses intelligence."
"These artifact spirits can take human form and possess various magical abilities."
Fatty Wang's eyes widened: "That's amazing?"
Wang Zhenqiu nodded:
"That's right, and these artifact spirits are all very rare."
"The Nine Ministers was an organization founded by Xu Fu."
"Their names come from the Three Dukes and Nine Ministers system of the Qin Dynasty."
"This organization has been opposing the Bureau of Control and Management, trying to control more artifact spirits."
After hearing Wang Zhenqiu's explanation, Lin Yang...
He frowned:
"I never expected that this Sadi Peng was one of the Nine Ministers."
"But why has he been following us?"
Wang Zhenqiu said, "So I don't know why the Nine Ministers are following us!"
"Luckily, Yang-ge, you have sharp eyes."
"Otherwise, we really don't know how long they would keep tormenting us."
Wang Zhenqiu said admiringly:
"So, Yang-ge, you're really amazing!"
“The people of the Nine Ministers have always been cunning. I didn’t expect you to be able to see through their disguise.”
Lin Yang glanced at Sadi Peng's corpse: "Alright, let's deal with this body first."
"To avoid causing unnecessary trouble."
As Lin Yang spoke, his gaze swept over Professor Chen and his group like a sharp blade.
They all looked tense, as if they were shrouded in invisible pressure.
"Professor Chen, didn't you notice anything wrong with Sadi Peng?" Lin Yang's tone was somewhat skeptical.
Professor Chen hurriedly explained:
"Comrade Xiaolin, I really didn't expect that."
"My knowledge of him is limited to academic matters."
"His private background has never been discussed."
Hao Aiguo echoed:
"Yes, Comrade Xiao Lin, we've all been blinded by him."
The others nodded in agreement, indicating that they knew nothing about Sadi Peng's true identity.
Seeing this, Fatty Wang widened his eyes and threatened:
"I think you're not unaware of the situation, but rather in cahoots with him!"
He just finished speaking.
Hao Aiguo hurriedly defended himself:
"Comrade Xiao Wang, you can't just falsely accuse people. We are completely innocent."
Fatty Wang snorted coldly:
"Innocence? I think you're just trying to trip me up behind my back!"
Upon hearing this, Professor Chen hurriedly said:
"Comrade Xiao Wang, please rest assured."
