Naming Technique of the Night

Chapter 856: 523, Master and Knight

Midnight, bustling yet filled with a sense of impending doom.

On the rooftop of a high-rise building, Si Nianhua stood in the shadow behind a neon sign and said, “Aren’t you going to complete your mission?”

Ji Guanya stood beside her and sighed, “When I received this mission from Boss Li Changqing before returning, I didn’t expect it to cause such a ruckus. I thought I just needed to protect him.”

Si Nianhua pondered for a moment and asked, “If this person only needed protection, wouldn’t it be boring? Let’s move. I’ll go find the secret training ground of the Mysterious Business Department, and you go locate those people in the A02 base. This ruthless guy used himself as bait to buy us some destruction space; if we can’t complete it, we might as well seek death and apologize to our respective bosses in Inner World.”

Ji Guanya curled his lips, “It’s not that strict on our side.”

However, despite his words, he turned and left.

The two places Qing Chen wanted them to sabotage: one was the secret facility used by the Mysterious Business Department to secretly detain Time Travelers. For instance, if Jinguji Maki were captured, she would be held here before being brainwashed.

According to estimates, this place held at least two thousand Time Travelers.

Previously, he and Yi had launched an online publicity campaign, and now they needed these two thousand witnesses to come forward.

The other place was where another group of voluntary pledgers gathered.

According to intelligence, although this group had not yet appeared in public, they were undergoing secret training at the A02 base and would be ready to serve as soldiers for the Mysterious Business Department in a month.

If Qing Chen crosses over again, these people would certainly be involved in the combat.

Since it was impossible in Inner World, he would kill them in Outer World.

From the beginning, Qing Chen knew what he was facing, so whether it was killing with a knife or taking on apprentices and children, some things had to be done.

At this moment, Si Nianhua, holding binoculars, saw through the neon sign a young man in white hunting clothes standing on another rooftop hundreds of meters away.

Just as she looked over, the young man seemed to sense it, turned his head, and nodded slightly towards Si Nianhua with a smile.

Si Nianhua’s heart skipped a beat!

This sixth sense, being able to detect a gaze from hundreds of meters away, was something only an A-Class could have!

The next moment, Si Nianhua suddenly bent over, feeling a blade pass behind her.

Without hesitation, she dove off the rooftop, not daring to look back to see who had ambushed her!

It was too dangerous!

In the distance, Jindai Yunlo saw her jump off the building, and a grappling hook flew from his sleeve, hooking onto the structure.

The young woman swung back to the staircase and climbed down agilely like a gecko.

Jindai Yunlo chuckled, “Interesting. Quite a few helpers. Daytime extends greetings to you all… quite imposing, but unfortunately, you’re enemies.”

On the rooftop where Si Nianhua had stood, the Shikigami, Ma Mian Luo Cha, stood at the edge holding a Nine-ringed Blade. The figure, half horse-faced and half human, was incredibly burly, over three meters tall with bulging muscles.

With each breath, flames spouted from the horse’s nostrils.

Under the night sky, Si Nianhua pondered in shock, such a formidable figure, why didn’t he join the hunt for Qing Chen?

Instead, he was here, watching the commotion?

…

…

In the Dotonbori direction, Qing Chen didn’t linger in battle but immediately turned and left.

In the communication channel, Jindai Yunwu said, “Follow him, mobilize teams from the other two directions to encircle him. He must not leave alive tonight.”

Qing Chen ran south along Dotonbori Avenue at high speed.

Jindai Yunwu, Jindai Yunye, and Jindai Yunjue formed a triangle and followed behind him.

However, Qing Chen’s escape speed was so fast that they couldn’t catch up for a while.

Jindai Yunwu said, “Yunye, Yunjue, you two are fast. Flank him from the sides.”

Among the seven chosen ones of the Jindai clan, only four were Onmyoji: Yun Yi, Kong Yu, Yun Luo, and Yun Wu.

The other three inherited another tradition called “Qieshe Yumian”: Yun Xiu, Yun Ye, Yun Jue.

This Qieshe Yumian was supported by the Jindai family’s unique Breathing Technique, focusing on swordsmanship.

Its three most famous techniques were the sword draw, iai, and Qieshe Yumian.

No regular blocking training, no other moves, just these three techniques.

Ordinary transcendent beings of the same level mostly couldn’t withstand the first move. Despite the Jindai family’s questionable conduct, their blade skills were undoubtedly masterful.

The Qieshe Yumian inheritors had strong physiques, naturally faster than the Onmyoji.

Jindai Yunwu didn’t want to reveal his Onmyoji cards at this point, so he ordered Yun Ye and Yun Jue to hold Qing Chen for just one minute.

One minute was all he needed to kill the Master of Daytime on the spot!

Jindai Yunjue and Jindai Yunye exchanged glances and leaped onto the low rooftops flanking the street, moving with extreme agility.

The short katanas at their waists swayed in their sheaths.

Qing Chen fled along the long street at such a speed that the crowd seemed to retreat behind him.

Everyone thought he was escaping, but no one knew he was only selecting the most suitable battlefield for himself.

Leaving the sniper’s range and shaking off those Mysterious Business Department members who couldn’t keep up, he then sought the perfect place to kill.
