"High Priest, I have identified the person the Holy Lord is investigating."

Before the Red Priest could question him again, the man codenamed "Confucian Scholar" revealed his trump card.

The red priestess's eyebrows twitched slightly beneath her mask.

"Oh? Tell me about it."

The scholar immediately clapped his hands, and a young man with stunning good looks and noble temperament appeared on the holographic sand table.

It was Mingxi disguised as Yulanka Keyi of the Turan tribe.

"The Turan? You mean this Turan is that one?"

The Red Priestess tapped her fingers on the table, scrutinizing the man's stunningly handsome face. "If it's that one, her temperament is quite fitting. I've heard she loves to show off."

Every time, the person impersonating the other is someone of high status and good looks.

As soon as she finished speaking, the scholar shook his head: "Wrong, wrong, High Priest. Our people have already ruled out the possibility that this Turan Yulanka is Mingxi."

Everyone present knew who the "one" the Red Priestess was referring to was.

The first 16-year-old to win the Xinghai Cup in human history.

The most talented beastmaster in the league.

Contracted pets are either newly evolved forms or unique, rare species.

In many people's minds, she is already the strongest beast tamer in history.

At such a young age, he has already received numerous honors.

The most dazzling genius in the entire league.

His surname is Ming, and his given name is Xi!

The Red Priestess's face immediately darkened.

She felt that the scholar was deliberately trying to embarrass her!

Whether the scholar had such thoughts or not, only he himself knew. He seemed oblivious to the Red Priest's anger and explained, "This Turan is special because he was recently kidnapped by a group of space pirates and brought to Zetalem. He was auctioned off at the Cloud Ice Auction by Verina Shadowsong, the illegitimate daughter of the Shadow Raven family who possesses a special physique."

According to our surveillance footage, he and Verina had that kind of relationship, the kind where a kiss could result in a child.

The evidence is conclusive; this Turanian man is indeed a man, and the possibility of him being *that* person is extremely small.

Today he and Verina Shadowsong also entered the Crimson Corridor, and this person behaved very strangely during the hunt; he could use extraordinary abilities!

As he spoke, he pulled up a series of videos.

It was a series of scenes of Mingxi drawing her bow and shooting arrows in the crimson corridor, mainly showing the arrows appearing out of thin air between her fingers.

The other masked figures became increasingly shocked as they # Nоvеlight # looked.

They had naturally heard the legends of the Turan people.

"Could this person truly possess the bloodline of Geng Jintianyou? Has he combined the bloodlines of both humans and extraordinary beings?"

"It certainly looks like the legendary Gengjin Arrow."

"Not only that, he also seems to have the skill of defensive armor transformation, which is also Geng Jintianyou's skill."

"..."

The Red Priestess also fixed her gaze on the holographic sand table.

"Are you sure he's really not Mingxi? You all know what kind of genius Mingxi is. According to our investigation, she has at least two divine artifacts, one of which, the Star God Scepter, can change her appearance and even her genes."

With her abilities, it's not impossible for her to perfectly impersonate Turan Yulanka.

The scholar raised his finger and shook it, “No, no, it’s true that Mingxi has a divine artifact, and we did list him as a major suspect before, but you also know the situation in the Crimson Corridor. Even a divine artifact cannot be used in the corridor.”

He maintained the same appearance throughout, and was still able to release the Gengjin Arrow.

That's why I ruled out the possibility that he was Mingxi.

The scholar was very confident in his judgment: "He absolutely could not be Mingxi!"

"However, the reason I specifically mentioned him is that I think his situation is quite special, and the Holy Lord might be interested in it, High Priest, what do you think?"

The Red Priest frowned. The Confucian scholar made a lot of sense. All signs indicated that Turan Yulan Kakoyi could not possibly be Mingxi.

But she always felt...

The sense of oppression Tulan Yulanka gave her was unlike that of an ordinary person.

Is this the power of skewers?

She didn't think about it anymore.

“I’ve noted his story. If the Holy Lord is interested, then you should contact him. It would be best if you could bring him under your control peacefully, but if he doesn’t know what’s good for him...”

The floor tiles beneath her feet crumbled silently into dust, sending tiny specks of dirt flying everywhere.

The scholar quickly replied with a smile, "Your Excellency, I understand."

As he spoke, he switched to the holographic screen again.

A new image appeared on the screen.

A woman wearing a black trench coat and half a fox mask.

In the video footage, she is walking alone on a street in the eastern part of Zetalem.

Her steps were unhurried, her long golden hair was tied into a high ponytail at the back of her head, and the lower half of her face that was exposed was exquisitely beautiful.

What's most special about her is her eyes; she has a pair of very distinctive double pupils.

“This woman appeared in Zetalem a week ago,” the Red Priestess said. “She has no entry record, no identity information, and seems to have appeared out of thin air.”

But after she appeared, our three surveillance points in the eastern district were silently eliminated.

The other masked figures became agitated.

The Red Priestess rose and stood before the holographic image. "Double pupils? Could it be the Hercules from Lingyuan Star?"

The image freezes on the moment the woman raises her head.

Those unique double pupils faintly revealed shimmering shadows of silver and dark colors.

"The Hexing Clan?" a masked man exclaimed. "You mean the most mysterious tribe in the legends of Lingyuan Star?"

Did you have contact with the He Xing clan, the one who destroyed the source?

But wasn't this tribe extinct long ago? How could they appear on Zetalem?

The scholar nodded: "That's right, it is indeed He Xing Shi. I have studied this woman carefully, and her eyes are indeed He Xing Shi's silver dark double pupils!"

"But as everyone knows, the Hexing clan has long been extinct, and there is no longer a Hexing clan in the world."

We also discovered that she had been secretly investigating Mo Fengyi's whereabouts, and that she had already made contact with the Longhua dog that we had deliberately released.

In addition, we also found several pets around her that corresponded to the attributes of Lei Motian and others.

Therefore, this woman who suddenly appeared is highly likely to be the real Mingxi!

This judgment is very reasonable.

That makes perfect sense.

The Red Priestess nodded: "In that case, let's close the net as soon as possible. The Holy Lord has been waiting for her for a long time."

"Yes! I've already sent someone over!"

"Um."

The Red Priestess recalled the exaggerated celestial phenomenon she had just witnessed.

"You all saw that strange phenomenon, what are your thoughts?"

"I have received news from various places that the strange phenomenon can be seen not only on Zeta Star, but also in the Cloud Sea, Spirit Plain, Green Field, and even Blue Star!"

"A cosmic phenomenon?"

"If the information is correct, then it should indeed be a sign of the emergence of a god-level transcendent being. The only question is, which transcendent being is it?"

"...Priest, could it be the Holy Lord?"

The masked people looked hopeful.

"I hope so too."

The Red Priestess's tone also carried a hint of anticipation.

In a secluded alley in the eastern district.

The mysterious woman, He Xingxuanyao, who had been brought to the top of the organization, was leaning against a flowing wall, idly playing with a coin.

The coin twirled between her fingers, each flip briefly altering the refraction of light around her, making her appear sometimes clear and sometimes blurry.

"Sigh, Xiao Xixi is having a blast chasing girls and killing enemies, while I can only do fishing."

He Xingxuan sighed helplessly and muttered to herself in a voice only she could hear.

"I have given so much to this family."

He Xingxuanyao.

It was Yaoxuan.

Only Yaoxuan, who can speak human language at will and controls the power of destiny, is qualified to assume the identity of 'Mingxi'.

Since it is Mingxi's pet beast, it can naturally use the Star God Scepter.

To make its identity more natural, Mingxi left all seven gold ingots with it.

Only in this way can the judgment of the Advent Organization be successfully misled.

And they did succeed.

"thunder."

At this moment, Jin Yuanbao used 【gene simulation】 to become a supernatural creature of both Electro and Fairy types called Jolteon, sitting on a square wooden table like a figurine.

Several small silver flowers were scattered throughout the room, and they had all changed their appearance.

Hearing Yaoxuan's complaint, it rolled its eyes and couldn't help but express its dissatisfaction.

Their daughter, Xi Bao, lives alone away from home, and clearly puts in even more effort.

Akadama:? ? ?

୧꒰•̀_•́꒱୨

At this moment, Yaoxuan's ears twitched slightly.

Someone is coming.

Five, no, six humans.

There are also twelve pet beasts!

The six humans moved with light steps, clearly indicating that they were all extremely skilled beast tamers.

A slight smile played on its lips as it flicked the coin into the air.

The coin spun upwards, suddenly coming to a stop at its highest point, and then—

"Smack."

It held it between two fingers.

Face up.

"It seems my fishing skills are indeed quite good."

Yaoxuan chuckled and turned to look at the alley entrance.

Six figures appeared there like ghosts.

They were dressed in matching black combat suits and wore faceless masks, while their twelve pet beasts surrounded them.

At a glance, they were all pets of Saint-level or higher.

Six saints, six venerable ones.

That's a big investment.

"Miss He Xing, please come with us."

The man at the head of the group said in a hoarse voice, "Our master wants to see you."

Yaoxuan tilted his head: "Dogs bark in the deep alley, roosters crow atop the mulberry tree."

It looked at the newcomer and said, "Where did these chickens and dogs come from in my precious land?"

It elongated its tone.

"You little bitch, if you can't understand human language, we know a little bit of martial arts!"

The six people and twelve pet beasts moved simultaneously.

Lightning fast!

Yaoxuan leaned against the wall, watching the six assassins who were closing in.

So, we still have to get it done?

It sighed, shrugged, and said, "Fine, this is a good opportunity to stretch my legs."

She snapped her fingers.

Seven figures appeared beside it.

Jin Yuanbao naturally resembled a normal Rayquaza, with arcs of electricity crackling across its body.

Little Silver Flower was now a Crocodile, its silver scales shimmering like the cool moonlight.

Lan Yue Liang is an ice nine-tailed creature, its nine tails swaying like ice crystals drifting in the snow.

The young lady in the pink dress is from Florence, surrounded by beautiful petals and exuding a delicate fragrance.

Black Pearl mimicked the Ghost-type Hydreigon, with a wicked smile on its lips, making the Lucario-like Glitter beside it want to punch it on the head.

Finally, there is the Hercules form of Xue Qingting, with a pair of long tentacles on its head that gleam with a cold light.

Seven pet beasts, all exuding their full aura.

The leader of the Assassins squad, codenamed Night Owl, narrowed his eyes.

"...The intelligence was indeed correct; the attributes of these pets match those of the Mingxi pets."

"We must catch her!"

The twelve pet beasts immediately launched an attack.

Blacklist Card.

Bat with cloud-like patterns.

Sea Dragon Scorpion.

Demonic Leaf Demon.

Six-clawed lobster.

Rogue Bear.

Poisonous doll.

Stanweasel.

...

Twelve against seven, a significant numerical advantage.

"Formation A!"

The owl sneered.

The assassins moved at the sound, and the twelve pet beasts immediately split into three groups.

Four aerial units suppressed the airspace above, while five demon-type pets launched a frontal assault.

The remaining three pets roamed around causing trouble.

A standard squad hunting formation.

Yaoxuan raised an eyebrow.

“Little Skirt Sister,” it spoke, its voice as clear and cold as Mingxi herself, “falling petals in profusion.”

"Skirt~" Florence leaped up lightly, waving her hands, and emerald light spots fell like rain.

The ground was instantly covered with soft flowers and grasses, creating a colorful scene.

"Trying a quick attack?" Night Owl sneered. "You won't get the chance! Air team, unleash a barrage of air blades! Ground team, launch a surprise attack! Ghost team, use curse interference!"

The moment the command was given—

"snow."

Yaoxuan's second command.

"Ice—" Lan Yue Liang raised her head and roared, her nine tails radiating icy blue light.

The sky suddenly changed color!

Snowflakes the size of a palm fluttered down!

Even the fallen petals were covered by snowflakes, turning into an eerie environment overgrown with ice plants.

In icy and snowy weather, non-ice-type pets remain frozen.

"Oh no! The trajectory of the air blades has been deflected!" one of the assassins exclaimed.

The snowflakes disrupted the airflow, and the air blades launched by the Cloud-Patterned Bat and the Sky Crow were mostly scattered by the snowflakes in mid-air, losing only a fraction of their power when they landed on Yaoxuan's side.

"Dragon Star Break." Yaoxuan's third command.

"Krukruk!" Little Silver Flower spiraled into the air, its dragon wings flapping!

A burst of energy erupted from the ground, sweeping up scattered air blades, along with the poisonous gas spewed by the approaching Stanweasel, into the sky!

The view suddenly became clear.

"That's really good."

A look of appreciation flashed in Yaoxuan's eyes; he seemed quite satisfied with his friends' expressions of sincerity.

"Little Blackie, use Ghost Catcher on those few on the ground, curse them."

"Dream~"

The black pearl, nicknamed Little Blackie, reacted quickly, and with a wicked smile, disappeared into the shadows.

The next second, black shadows resembling human hands simultaneously sprouted from beneath the feet of the five pet beasts on the ground!

Ghost Catcher, a high-level crowd control skill.

One of the new skills Black Pearl has mastered.

Although the skill level is not high, when used in conjunction with curses, opponents will be silenced after one use.

Because Ghost Catcher can amplify abnormal statuses, doubling its power.

"roar--!"

Black Curtain Ka let out a painful roar, and black mist emanated from his body.

"Oh no! Quickly remove the negative status! We can't let the curse take effect!" Night Owl shouted urgently.

But it was too late.

“Thunderbolt.” Yaoxuan pointed to the sky. “Thunderstorm.”

"Ray!" Jin Lei Zi Yuan Bao was surrounded by thousands of lightning snakes and leaped into the sky.

"BOOM!!!"

Black lightning bolts, each over five meters in diameter, slashed down from the clouds!

It almost covered the entire battlefield!
