Realm of the Night God

Chapter 857: Mutual Destruction



After returning from Duan Head Mountain, Yang Hao Ran hadn't left his villa, and Old Man Wu was the same, so he wasn't aware of some things that had happened outside in the past few days.

Of course, if the City Governor of Le Cheng had really died as Bai Xue said, then this news shouldn't have spread throughout Le Cheng yet, or maybe only some officials knew about it, otherwise, there would definitely be night guards coming to report to him.

"I went out today and ran into Deputy Team Leader Zhou, and this news is what Deputy Team Leader Zhou told me. But looking at his expression, he seemed to still have some sadness about the City Governor's death, which really made me puzzled - what was there to be sad about for this old man who had forgotten his gratitude?" Bai Xue said with a smile.

"From your perspective, the City Governor deserved to die, but from some people's perspective, the City Governor's death was a pity, after all, our City Governor of Le Cheng had done many practical things." Yang Hao Ran responded with a smile.

"Then, from the perspective of the Divine Envoy, was the City Governor's death a pity or not a pity?" Bai Xue asked with a smile.

Yang Hao Ran only smiled and didn't directly answer, instead asking Bai Xue another question.

"Do you know how he died?"

Bai Xue smiled mysteriously and gave Yang Hao Ran a playful look.

"Take a guess."

Bai Xue's face fell, as she had wanted to tease Yang Hao Ran, but he didn't take the bait.

"He died suddenly, and as for who killed him, there are many speculations. According to Deputy Team Leader Zhou, the City Governor was likely killed by those two demon hunters, because in the past few days, the City Governor had only been in contact with those two demon hunters, and they must have secretly left some deadly means on the City Governor's body, causing his sudden death."

Bai Xue paused slightly before continuing, "Of course, it's also possible that someone from the Administrative Institute did it, just like you said, the City Governor's position is one that many people want to take, and someone might find an opportunity to kill him and take his place, which is also a reasonable thing to do."

Yang Hao Ran nodded and didn't speak, falling into deep thought.

Initially, he had let Bai Xue join the Spirit Police not only to use the official power to protect her but also for another purpose, which was to make a big move.

However, the great chaos in the world was beyond his expectations, disrupting his plans, and he had to remake them. Now, with the City Governor's sudden death, which was also beyond his expectations, his plans had to be changed again.

"Heh heh, Divine Envoy, what are you thinking about?" Bai Xue asked with a smile, seeing Yang Hao Ran's thoughtful expression.

"Nothing, I don't know how Team Leader Luo's injuries are recovering, let's go take a look." Yang Hao Ran said with a smile, then stood up.

"You're not busy, why do you have time to go see Team Leader Luo?" Bai Xue asked with a puzzled expression.

"If I don't go see Team Leader Luo now, I'm afraid you might not be able to see him in the future." Yang Hao Ran said, then walked out of Bai Xue's bedroom.

His words made Bai Xue's doubts even stronger, and seeing Yang Hao Ran had already walked out of the bedroom door, she quickly followed him out, putting on her mask before leaving.

Yang Hao Ran gave a brief instruction to Xiu Juan, then took Bai Xue to the Spirit Police headquarters. Although he still had many things to handle, he had put the Administrative Institute's matter as his top priority.

Yang Hao Ran's decision to do so naturally had his considerations.

With Yang Hao Ran's current strength, the prohibition array set up by the Spirit Patrol Headquarters was like a mere formality to him. However, he didn't make a big show of it, partly because it wasn't very polite, and partly because he didn't want to reveal his true strength. The latter was more important to him, and it was genuinely true.

When they arrived outside the array, neither of them sealed their power fluctuations, but instead tried to suppress their strength as much as possible. As a result, their strength didn't seem particularly impressive, not to the point of being intimidating.

Although their strength was suppressed, the people inside the prohibition array would definitely be able to sense their arrival. However, even after standing outside the array for a long time, no one came out to greet them or chase them away.

"Brother Divine Envoy, something seems off," Bai Xue said, furrowing her brow as she spoke to Yang Hao Ran.

"There's definitely something off. Let's not worry about it too much and just go in and take a look," Yang Hao Ran replied.

"Should I... just break through the array?" Bai Xue asked for Yang Hao Ran's opinion.

Yang Hao Ran nodded lightly, and after getting his approval, Bai Xue waved her hand, releasing a green light that shot forward and hit the empty space in front of them.

The empty space was initially devoid of anything, but after being attacked, a light screen immediately appeared. However, this light screen formed by the prohibition array was no match for Bai Xue's attack, and it was broken through in an instant.

With Bai Xue's current strength, she could have destroyed the entire array with one blow. However, she didn't do so, instead controlling her strength to only break through a small opening that could fit the two of them.

No matter what, Bai Xue had been a Spirit Patrol officer in the city for a long time and still had some feelings for the place. Even though the deceased administrator had abandoned her for the greater good, she didn't vent her anger on the Spirit Patrol organization and was still quite polite towards it.

This could be seen from the fact that she only broke through a small opening in the array instead of using brute force to destroy it completely.

Yang Hao Ran took a step forward and entered the array, with Bai Xue following closely behind. As they entered the array, the true situation inside the Spirit Patrol Headquarters was revealed to them. However, the current Spirit Patrol Headquarters was vastly different from the one they had in their minds.

The entire headquarters was in a state of chaos, with a fierce battle raging on. There were over ten people participating in the battle, some fighting in the air and others on the ground. Various magical techniques and artifacts were clashing, causing the entire headquarters to shake continuously, even making the earth tremble slightly.

Apart from the people fighting, there were many injured people lying on the ground, some of whom had already lost consciousness due to severe injuries. Others, although not unconscious, had lost their combat strength and were lying on the ground, gritting their teeth in pain.

"What's going on? Why are they fighting each other?" Bai Xue asked, her face filled with surprise.

Among the people fighting, there were some that Yang Hao Ran recognized, knowing that they were all members of the Spirit Patrol. However, there were some people that Yang Hao Ran didn't have a deep impression of.

"Are they all Spirit Patrol officers?" Yang Hao Ran asked Bai Xue.

"That's right, they're all Spirit Patrol officers. However, some of them were recently recruited, so you haven't had a chance to interact with them," Bai Xue replied.

"Since they're all Spirit Patrol officers, yet they're fighting each other to the death in the headquarters, it seems that my guess was correct - the Spirit Patrol is indeed in trouble," Yang Hao Ran said calmly.

"Brother Divine Envoy, did you guess that the Spirit Patrol would have a major incident?" Bai Xue asked.

"I didn't guess it too early. When you told me that the administrator had suddenly died, I suspected that the Spirit Patrol might have a major incident, so I temporarily put aside other matters and brought you here to take a look. It seems that my guess was correct," Yang Hao Ran replied calmly.

"What should we do now?" Bai Xue asked Yang Hao Ran.

At this time, Bai Xue was feeling a bit anxious, but she didn't take action on her own. If Yang Hao Ran wasn't here, she would have done things her own way.

"Let's stop them first," Yang Hao Ran said.

Although he didn't understand what was going on, letting them continue fighting like this wasn't a solution, so Yang Hao Ran felt that they should first stabilize the situation.

As soon as Yang Hao Ran finished speaking, Bai Xue responded with a sound, and then her body shot up into the air. A dense, demonic aura emanated from her, and her powerful demonic strength burst out of her body like a flood, dyeing the sky green.

In order to achieve the desired deterrent effect, Bai Xue didn't suppress her power anymore, releasing all her strength.

"Stop!"

Bai Xue's voice was like thunder, echoing throughout the Spirit Patrol Headquarters.
