"My lord, I will arrange for soone to bring them back imdiately!" The middle-aged man looked frantic as he was about to turn and leave. The sacred artifact was too important to the Yulei Sect, and no loss could be afforded.
But before he could get far, he was stopped by the elder's calm voice. "There's no need. They are likely already dead!"
Glancing at the silver coin in his hand that shone with a silver glow, the elder nodded in satisfaction, then pocketed it. He straightened the round hat on his head before pacing towards the wall adorned with a large Hexagram.
The middle-aged man, having been stopped, imdiately understood what the elder intended to do and hurried over to support his arm. "My lord, even if they're dead, we need to retrieve the sacred artifact..."
The elder ignored his words, rely casting a profound glance at him.
Feeling the gaze from his side, the middle-aged man's heart trembled, and he quickly shut his mouth, saying no more.
With a CREAK, the large Hexagram on the wall split and opened to either side as the elder flicked a switch, revealing another space behind.
Three Pyramids, each one and a half tis the height of a man, appeared dazzlingly before them. Under the bright lights, small, faintly flickering Hexagrams floated above each step of the Pyramid closest to them.
The middle-aged man circled the Pyramid in front of them and then returned with a troubled expression, holding two Hexagrams that had lost their luster.
"My lord, they bear the Bizarre divine prohibitions of Belles and Palr!"
The elder's face remained calm, showing no surprise. He nodded, then started walking outside. "Fadika, retrieve a ring, then have Romiel make preparations!"
Upon hearing this order, Fadika, who was following the elder, suddenly lifted his head. His voice was urgent as he tried to persuade, "My lord, we have yet to fully control the power of those rings. If sothing were to happen..."
Fadika was abruptly interrupted by a dismissive wave from the elder before he could finish.
"We need even more powerful Strength to retrieve our sacred artifact," the elder said, looking directly into Fadika's eyes with a serious tone. "Fadika, we don't have much ti left."
Under the elder's gaze, Fadika's initially hesitant eyes slowly beca resolute.
"Very well, my lord, I'll go right now!"
"Mmm!"
As Fadika's figure receded, the elder slowly turned to look at the Hexagram on the wall, murmuring, "Oh, God! Please open Your eyes and look upon Your most faithful believers."

These Yulei Sect followers sure know how to hide themselves well, Chu Feng sighed, looking at the information he had just received on his phone. Social elites, business tycoons, governnt officials—it seed their mbers were everywhere, yet ordinary people remained completely unaware of their existence. If it hadn't been for this incident exposing them, I might still not know who stood behind the Holy Advent Society...
Putting away his phone, he turned his gaze eastward. He wouldn't rest easy until he completely eradicated the Yulei Sect. Moreover, the silver coin could forcibly imprison an Evil Spirit within a human body, reducing it to a re source of Strength. With such a significant function, I don't believe they would give up easily. Furthermore, I now have seven silver coins in my possession—almost a quarter of the total number. If our roles were reversed, I certainly wouldn't let matters rest so easily either.
To eliminate this hidden foe, Chu Feng didn't mind spending a little ti to crush them thoroughly.
Speaking of which, I've never actually seen the diterranean coast. I wonder if I'll get lost?
Pushing the joking thought aside, Chu Feng's figure suddenly transford into a streak of rainbow light and vanished over the horizon in an instant. This trip, I must level the Yulei Sect headquarters to the ground. Only then will this hatred in my heart be settled.

Inside the Exorcism Agency building in New York, Lin Qiu and Taran, having just finished their work, were sitting on the sofa savoring liquor from Chu Feng's private collection.
"Taran, drink less, you're getting drunk!" Lin Qiu said, feeling sowhat helpless as she looked at Taran's flushed face. He never used to drink heavily. Why has he suddenly consud so much...?
"It's fine, all of Chu Feng's liquor is good. If I get drunk, I can just sleep here!" Taran took another sip from his glass and waved his hand, unconcerned, his eyes slightly blurred.
"Aren't you afraid he'll suddenly co back?"
"HIC... If he cos back, so what? What can he do to ? What would he dare do to ?"
Looking at Taran, who was obviously drunk, Lin Qiu took a deep breath and helplessly patted her smooth forehead. "Alright, alright! Looks like I'll have to sleep here with you tonight. You keep drinking. I'm going to confirm the source of the silver coins with Jas again and then get so blankets."
"Why get blankets? Chu Feng's... HIC... rest room has everything, doesn't it?"
Ignoring Taran, who was hugging a pillow and mumbling, Lin Qiu shook her head and left the office. She then tried to call Jas. Seeing that no one was picking up, Lin Qiu's brows furrowed slightly.
What in the world is Jas doing? Ever since he brought back those silver coins, left a ssage saying he was on holiday, and disappeared, she'd been worried. If his phone hadn't been reachable before, she might have reported him missing by now. But today, to her surprise, his phone went unanswered, making Lin Qiu wonder if sothing had happened to him.
Right, where did Jas live again? She carefully searched through her phone records; she rembered recording his address in her phone. How can it be missing? Having searched every possible place, Lin Qiu frowned even more.
For so reason, she had a persistent feeling that sothing was not right, but she couldn't pinpoint the source. Unconsciously, her eyes drifted back to her phone, and she considered trying Jas's number one more ti.
But when she opened the dialer, she was shocked to find that the call log from monts ago had mysteriously vanished. At the sa ti, that Bizarre feeling intensified! With confusion in her heart, Lin Qiu opened her contacts list, searching for Jas's number. But even after scanning the contacts list from top to bottom, she couldn't find his number.
This strange situation finally sparked a faint suspicion in her.
She looked around her office; the empty surroundings didn't seem amiss. She then took out the Warning Crystal, but it showed no changes.
Strange? Lin Qiu shook her head, starting to wonder if there was sothing wrong with the liquor from Chu Feng's collection.
Just as she lowered her head to look at her phone, her body abruptly froze. It took two or three seconds for her to return to normal.
Odd... didn't I co here to get blankets? Why did I take out my phone and the Warning Crystal?
