Concealment (1)

Figures moved at the entrance to the underground parking garage.

With a cane in one hand and a gun in the other, Li Dongze rushed into the underground parking garage and quickly scanned the scene with his sharp eyes.

He first saw the unconscious Xu Yingying, then the less obvious bloodstains on the ground and a few damaged private cars. As a Scout, it was not difficult for Li Dongze to tell that there had been a short and dangerous battle here.

Xu Yingying wasn't dead, which meant that the situation wasn't at its worst yet.

The Spirit Realm Walkers scanned the scene with equal vigilance and speed. Immediately, they saw a figure walk out from the shadows of the back of the car.

Instantly, everyone instinctively turned their guns toward him.

"Don't shoot, it's me…"

Zhang Yuanqing quickly raised his hands and sized up the Spirit Realm Walkers besides Guan Ya and Li Dongze.

The muscular man in the gym suit looked like a gym instructor. He was at least six feet tall, his muscles bulging with power. He wore red half-finger gloves.

The beautiful woman in the ink painting cheongsam had her hair tied up in a classic bun. She had a graceful figure and looked quite old, but her face was fair and exquisite without any wrinkles.

The middle-aged man in the miner's hat and dark brown construction clothes was dark-skinned and weathered.

The young woman in the white racing suit had an oval face, fair skin, thick eyebrows, and a heroic spirit. She held a long black blade in her hand.

The other two armed men had no special temperament or appearance.

When they saw Zhang Yuanqing emerge from the shadows, Li Dongze and Guan Ya's tense expressions relaxed visibly, as if relieved.

After the meeting ended, they received a call from Wang Tai saying that Primordial Beginning had discovered Ou Xiangrong at Songhai University. He had kidnapped Xu Yingying and was up to no good.

Li Dongze and Guan Ya were shocked. They immediately called the captains who had yet to disperse and rushed to Songhai University.

Along the way, Li Dongze's face was tense and his heart was heavy. He was afraid that Primordial Beginning would attack recklessly.

After newcomers became Spirit Realm Walkers, they would often become arrogant when they experienced extraordinary power for the first time. Coupled with their shallow experience and lack of knowledge, it was easy for them to get carried away.

Seeing that Zhang Yuanqing was safe and sound, both of them heaved a sigh of relief.

"Is he the Night Wanderer?"

The impatient Big Muscle first asked Li Dongze a question. After getting an affirmative answer, he looked around the underground parking garage and asked in a rough voice, "Kid, where's Ou Xiangrong? Which way did he escape?"

In his opinion, a Level 3 Bewitching Demon was not something a Level 1 Night Wanderer could deal with. It was obvious that after a short exchange, Ou Xiangrong fled hurriedly in fear of the other Official Spirit Realm Walkers.

If Ou Xiangrong had not fled for a long time, if he pursued now, he might be able to catch him with his scout's tracking ability.

Li Dongze, Guan Ya, and a few other captains stared at Zhang Yuanqing, waiting for his answer.

"He didn't escape!" said Zhang Yuanqing.

He didn't escape? Everyone felt a chill as they raised their guns and looked around in surprise and alarm.

Then they heard the rookie, who was just starting out, point to the shadows behind him and say, "I took him out."

What did he say? The Fire Master almost dug his ears, wondering if there was something wrong with his hearing. He immediately lost his temper and said in a muffled voice, "Don't joke with me. This is not an occasion for you to show off your humor."

Li Dongze and the others were also stunned. Then they frowned and looked at Zhang Yuanqing with more caution.

Why are you so fierce? Can't you speak nicely? Don't tell me you're from the Crimson Fire Gang… Zhang Yuanqing explained patiently,

"I'm not lying. His body was in the back of the car. Go over there and see for yourself if you don't believe me."

Big Muscle looked that way. The columns protruding from the wall formed intersecting shadows with the body of the car. He couldn't see into the corner from his position.

He immediately went over to check.

"Wait a minute." The middle-aged man in the miner's hat stepped forward. He glanced at Zhang Yuanqing and said to the burly man, "I'll go take a look."

Big Muscle saw his colleague's grave expression and seemed to remember something. He looked warily at Zhang Yuanqing and nodded.

Zhang Yuanqing noticed that Li Dongze and Guan Ya were looking a little strange. The others were looking at him with undisguised wariness.

At this moment, the middle-aged man in the miner's hat approached the back of the car slowly but steadily. Then he stared blankly somewhere, his eyes widening in shock.

"Boss Tang?"

Big Muscle felt a chill when he saw the stunned look on his companion's face. His upper muscles suddenly swelled, ready to attack.

The captains immediately became vigilant.

Tang Guoqiang looked like he had been bewitched.

But soon, they saw Tang Guoqiang "recovering". He leaned over and dragged a corpse out into the spotlight.

The corpse was wearing baggy camouflage pants, a black vest, and a black jacket. The face was a bloody mess, and the eye sockets were empty, but the facial features were vaguely recognizable.

It was indeed Ou Xiangrong.

The underground parking garage fell silent as everyone stared blankly at Ou Xiangrong's body.

Li Dongze's expression changed from serious to stunned. He muttered to himself, "Oh my God, oh my God…"

Guan Ya looked at the body and then at Zhang Yuanqing. Then she thought of something and looked thoughtful.

A beautiful woman in an ink-painted cheongsam walked over quickly in high heels. She stopped by the corpse and examined it carefully before pursing her lips.

"It is indeed Ou Xiangrong."
