Chapter 85 Victims of the Water System
Queen Jiuyou was not afraid of her. As a monarch of a thousand years, she had never been afraid of anyone except the king. She had no reason to be afraid of a human mage.
"Stay here," Wu Ku said calmly, his aura becoming sharp and imposing, as if he were an insurmountable barrier, no matter where he stood.
"This is not a high-level mage." Mu Bai narrowed his eyes, appearing calm on the surface, but his heart was in turmoil.
"Yes, not a high-level mage." Su Ming had seen Mu Qiannian's furious side before. Compared to Wu Ku now, he was nothing but a small fry.
"He..." Ge Xin was speechless, staring intently at Wu Ku.
"Is it that amazing?"
Even more powerful than her brother, Mu Qianjin concluded that her ice bow posed no danger to someone of this level.
As for Green Brother, he only knows that Wu Ku is powerful. He has no experience of contacting super-level mages, and he has not had much contact with high-level mages either.
"Victims?" Jiuyou paused for a moment, then made a judgment in her mind.
His magical skill wasn't high, but his control over water was so great that he could only be a victim.
This society cannot tolerate the survival of the victims; the people in the Court of Judgment have always regarded the victims as a thorn in their side.
A plane was circling overhead above Helan Mountain. Jiang Shaoqing's home was not far from here, and with the plane's high speed, he arrived in no time.
However, he did not go down, but instead ordered the plane to circle in the air.
A torrential downpour began, and Jiang Shaoqing had a bad feeling about what caused it.
Rainy days always make people feel irritable, but this rain makes people feel even more so.
His uncle asked him to come to Helan Mountain to keep an eye on Wu Ku. He still had no news of Wu Ku, but his uncle told him later that Wu Ku must be in Helan Mountain.
"Wu Bodhisattva, Wu Ku, did you cause this rain?" If Wu Ku caused this rain, then that's the real trouble.
This rain stretched for tens of kilometers, covering a vast area; even a level 3 water mage would find it difficult to achieve such a feat.
ding ding ding...
Jiang Shaoqing opened his eyes. The cell phone in front of him rang, but there was no music. It was a special communication phone used by the military.
Jiang Shaoqing picked up his phone.
"Hello!"
"Latest intelligence, source uncertain, indicates that Wu Ku is a member of the Black Vatican, and the Bo City disaster was his doing. Moreover, reliable intelligence suggests that Bo City was merely a rehearsal. I now order you to arrest Wu Ku!"
The uncle's calm voice came from the phone, causing Jiang Shaoqing's expression to change drastically.
"I've already dispatched the Forbidden City Army to Helan Mountain, but it will take some time. Wu Ku is very powerful; you're probably no match for him. I don't expect you to subdue Wu Ku, but you must stop him!"
"We cannot afford a disaster as severe as the Bo City catastrophe that we are just rehearsing."
"I see."
Jiang Shaoqing hung up the phone, squinting. Was Wu Ku the source of that disaster?
Source questionable?
This question is worth pondering, but it's clearly not the issue now. Regardless of whether Wu Ku has any problems or not, we need to address it in advance.
The fact that my uncle was able to make this phone call suggests there's a high probability of anything happening; we just need one more piece of decisive evidence.
"Five kilometers to the west," Jiang Shaoqing said. He hadn't been doing nothing while he was stopped here.
He had already identified the location of the torrential rain that stretched for dozens of kilometers.
If Wu Ku caused this rain, then the epicenter of the downpour is where Wu Ku is.
Jiang Shaoqing jumped off the plane without needing any protective measures; his magic was enough to allow him to land safely from high altitude.
Six-winged wind appeared behind him, and a wind barrier appeared, preventing the torrential rain from hitting him.
Jiang Shaoqing swooped down, leaving the rain behind him.
Rumble~~~~~~~~~~
"Wu Ku!" Jiang Shaoqing landed safely and stood in front of Wu Ku.
?
Jiuyou was stunned for a moment. Just as she was about to make a move, a person suddenly appeared in the sky, which surprised her. She then considered whether or not to fight.
She wasn't afraid of those two people combined; she was afraid that someone else might suddenly appear.
"The Lord of the Dead?" Jiang Shaoqing noticed Jiu You not far behind him, and also saw Su Ming, Mu Bai and others in the distance. Wu Ku was standing in front of him, his face unchanged.
He maintained a faint smile, which Jiang Shaoqing perceived as mockery, a mockery that they had only just discovered his true identity.
"Lord of the Ghosts, I know you possess wisdom and understand human nature. This situation has nothing to do with you. You'd better leave as soon as possible," Jiang Shaoqing said.
"Are you threatening me?" Empress Jiuyou frowned, displeased.
"I'm just reminding you that this person has serious problems, and I have to catch him," Jiang Shaoqing said, pointing at Wu Ku.
"Heh, how could your small frame possibly defeat a victim of a higher class? You should train for another two years. Do you think you'd still be standing here safely if I weren't here?" Jiuyouhou said disdainfully.
Seeing that nothing had happened, Su Ming was getting anxious. It was obvious that someone had a grudge against Wu Ku, and that this person was a super-level mage. He shouldn't have gotten involved.
Su Ming ran out, and all three people's eyes were on him, including the people behind him. They didn't know why Su Ming ran out at this time.
The overwhelming pressure from the high-level mage made it difficult for him to breathe. Su Ming bypassed Wu Ku and Jiang Shaoqing, ran to Jiu Youhou's side, and whispered, "Sister, let's not get involved in this. Let them fight it out, we can just stay away and watch the show."
"Why keep them so far away? I'm not afraid of them. Even if they team up, I can beat them to a pulp and teach them a lesson in no time," Jiuyouhou said disdainfully, looking down on Su Ming.
"Hehe." Su Mingqian chuckled twice. "You're probably not afraid, but this has nothing to do with us. Just watch the show, don't get involved."
After thinking about it for a moment, Jiuyou agreed.
This matter is indeed related to him; she wouldn't have been prepared to take action if she hadn't sensed the murderous intent.
Jiuyou followed behind Su Ming, who circled back from the side with his standard smile on his face.
Wu Ku responded with a smile.
Jiang Shaoqing frowned. They had all heard what he said and never expected that this young man would be related to the Lord of Ghosts, and it seemed that their relationship was quite close.
But now is not the time to worry about that.
After Jiuyou leaves, he can focus on dealing with Wu Ku.
Wu Ku was also a victim, as Jiu You Hou said. As the Lord of Ghosts, he had existed for a very long time and his knowledge was certainly broader than Wu Ku's. Moreover, Wu Ku's performance was definitely extraordinary.
The victims of the water system.
