Now, the situation was, how could this American lady from the a.s.sociation of Superpowered Beings be her former "ally"? One was in Europe and the other, in America? Although it was not impossible, it was still too much of a stretch.
Is she really from the church? Or is she trying to lay a trap? Regardless, she can indeed manipulate the fallen angel.
Since this matter was related to such a critical secret, Elder Huayu dared not be careless. The sword in her hand was filled with qi, and the leaves in the dense forest started fluttering from the aura emitted.
Victoria's skin tingled, her breathing turned heavy, and her blood slowed to a stop, as the killing intent enveloped her. Her brain sent out dangerous signals, urging her to run for her life.
Although the young generation's top experts were not worse than the last, and Jie Se and Dan Chenzi were known to have the potential of reaching Half-Step Gokudo, but Elder Huayu was no ordinary person either. She could be ranked among the strongest demon descendants. As the Liuyun Temple leader, her background and strength were in a completely different league from Victoria.
Li Xianyu's plan was quite detailed. If this were to be exposed, then he would activate Plan B and directly call on Elder Huayang to fight against Elder Huayu.
However, that would mean that the plan had failed. No, there was no failure. Since the evidence was obtained, they could just leave.
Victoria was about to summon the fallen angel to fight, but just then, she felt something locked onto her. In the corner of her eyes, she saw a copper mirror sliding out of the sleeve of Elder Huayu. The mirror aimed right at her.
"Deity Detection Mirror!" Victoria's heart sank.
The mirror was the most precious treasure of Liuyun temple, which could only be controlled by the master. It was a mental artifact. The mirror light of the mirror could absorb mental energy, and the target's consciousness would enter a trance for a split second.
Victoria was not a mental power awakener. She couldn't be immune to such attacks. Elder Huayang couldn't help her because the "master" of Huayang was not Victoria, but Li Xianyu.
If the scene was with Li Xianyu, his mental power could be immensely boosted by Elder Huayang and be easily immune to the light from the mirror.
The fallen angel was in essence, private property. Only the master could fully mentally fuse with her and utilize her power after signing the contract.
"The Deity Detection Mirror had locked onto me. I may not be able to summon the fallen angel before Elder Huayu kills me."
What to do? What to do? In less than a second, all kinds of ideas flashed pa.s.sed her eyes. Victoria did not doubt that as long as she showed any flaws, she will receive a sharp and decisive attack from the Elder.
"I'm not necessarily exposed. I'm just exposed to my ident.i.ty, which makes her suspect at most. I have a chance to rescue…" Victoria took a deep breath. She looked at the Elder Huayu without any panic, wearing a slight smile. "Do you find it strange? The cultures of Europe and America came from the same source and are inextricably linked. "
"Our McCarthy family has always been a secret member of the church. At the end of the 18th century, the church secretly supported forces in the United States. The McCarthy family is an undercover force arranged by the church in the United States. At the end of the 19th century and the beginning of the 20th century, the United States seized the opportunity of World War I and developed rapidly. The McCarthy family benefited from it. It grew and developed from a small chess piece to become the spokesman of the church in the United States. By the end of World War II, the McCarthy family had become a powerful force in the church that could not be ignored. "
"The fallen angel is under the control of my McCarthy family, and Dan Chenzi is also the material of our family's interest." Victoria's face seemed to scream "Hallelujah" as she proudly continued, "I shouldn't have told you this, but you are too suspicious of me. To cooperate smoothly, it was okay to disclose some secrets to you. You're an outsider, but I hope you keep it secret. "
All these talks about a huge family being undercover since the era of World War I and World War II were beyond Elder Huayu's comprehension, but she still felt in awe from the sheer scale of the secret.
Since she was a child, Elder Huayu was taught of only things in the world of demon descendants, so she has never completed nine years of compulsory education. She was immediately fooled due to her lack of understanding of foreign history.
In front of her, Victoria seemed to have unfolded a dark epic history unknown to the European and American demon descendant community.
The vigilance in her eyes gradually subsided, and she thought to herself:
If she was not a member of the church, then she would not have mastered the fallen angel. It is thus not surprising that the McCarthy family is a member of the church. If she's fake, what's the purpose of the appointment today? Dan Chenzi's mental talent is exceptional, and it's normal for them to take notice. This group of greedy foreign devils, in the beginning, I knew that we were dealing with the devils.
"If even the slightest detail of what I've told you today is leaked, the McCarthy family won't let you off easily," Victoria said indifferently.
"Hmm, I can only try to help, but I can't guarantee that Dan Chenzi will get baited." The Elder Huayu silently took back the mirror and haggled. "His ident.i.ty is extraordinary. If you can't give me a satisfactory reward, I won't help you."
Seeing that, Victoria was relieved. She cheered for herself in her heart. Victoria, you have such a talent for acting. Oscar owes you a little golden man.
"Don't worry, our family will enter the Great Deities Palace this time. I can promise you that we will share half of the treasures we get in the Great Deities palace." Victoria drew a huge circle in the air with her finger and figuratively sliced the imaginary cake into half.
Half to me?
"How can I believe you?" Elder Huayu's eyes already started to sparkle.
The superpower a.s.sociation of the United States was a force that cannot be reckoned with. When the Great Deities Palace opens, there will be many parties vying for benefits. If there were to be any tacit help from the McCarthy family, Elder Huayu will be sure to gain immense benefits.
"We both have the weakness of each other, don't we? The details of the cooperation will be settled after the Forum Conference. Our family will send more powerful elders to contact and discuss with you. I just want to say h.e.l.lo to you in advance," Victoria concluded.
"Well, I'll wait for your news," Elder Huayu replied.
Victoria stopped talking, put on her cloak again and disappeared into the forest.
…...
She walked back and forth in the mountains for over half an hour and was sure that no one was following her. Then she secretly returned to Lianghua temple. Under the cover of night, she dove to Li Xianyu's room.
You Mengyu and Xia Xiaoxue had already returned to the room in advance, and could not wait to say, "Hurry up, hand it over."
Victoria's back against the door as she heaved a sigh of relief. "My legs were almost s.h.i.+vering, but it's so exciting, I feel like the FBI's ace agent."
She took off her cloak and showed them the recording equipment at her waist. After giving it to Xia Xiaoxue, she poured herself a gla.s.s of cold water and drank it up. She then burped in a very unladylike manner.
Just now, her spirit was extremely tense. In addition to fearing that Elder Huayu exposed her, this was the first time she had never done this kind of thing before and felt a little nervous.
"Has he recovered yet?" Victoria wanted to go to bed to have a rest, but there was no place as Li Xianyu and Thunderbolt Battle Lady were already there.
"Let me soothe your mind," Hua Yang said with a grateful smile as she emerged from her body. "Thank you. I'm almost about to start fighting."
It was dangerous as they were almost revealed. Fortunately, this foreign girl was witty. With her explanation, even Huayang was almost fooled.
Victoria waved her hand and asked, "What are you going to do next? Expose her face to face at the Forum Conference?"
Elder Huayang nodded. "Tomorrow will be the time to settle our debts."
Seeing Elder Huayu again tonight, Elder Huayang was far from being calm, and only with her strong willpower could she restrain her endless hatred boiling in her blood.
Her hatred for the Elder Huayu was far greater than her hate for those foreign devils. No matter how fierce the enemies were, how could it be compared with the betrayal of an elder sister? If it had not been for Huayu's betrayal, her life would never have been like this. She would have been married to Li Wuxiang for a long time, and he would not have entered the Great Deities Palace. They would have lived a happy life, and the young man lying on the bed now would have been her son.
Huayu had ruined her life. She will dearly pay for it.
Watching Elder Huayang enter Li Xianyu's body, Victoria woke up Thunderbolt Battle Lady. "Mission accomplished. Hmmm, well, you can now go back to your room to sleep."
Thunderbolt Battle Lady woke up p.i.s.sed. She twisted her body, covered her head with the quilt, and went back to sleep.
Victoria left her alone, poured another gla.s.s of water and stood in front of the computer to watch the duo clipping videos. Only three of them were awake in the room now. Two of them are asleep in bed. Unparalleled War Spirit and San Wu had left for a long time.
"Are you going to cut out the back part?" Victoria asked.
"Of course, the latter part is an accident," Xia Xiaoxue said. "We only need the first half anyway."
Victoria was a tad disappointed. She thought that the second half was the peak of her acting. It was like a three-point shootout in the last second from the midfield.
On the other side, Elder Huayu returned to her residence and sat on the bed, recalling the details in the forest. She didn't notice anything, but she was still uneasy. Then she called her eldest disciple, "Xuan Cheng, help me to check Victoria of The a.s.sociation of Superpowered Beings and the McCarthy family. The sooner the better. "
More than ten minutes later, her disciple called, "Master, Victoria McCarthy is the Group Leader of Group 68 from the a.s.sociation. Her personal information and the background of the McCarthy family have been sent to your mailbox."
Elder Huayu sat on the bed and looked for the email sent by her disciple for a long time. She wasn't too familiar with how to use her mobile phone.
The first half of the email was Victoria's personal information and deeds. Elder Huayu glanced at it and quickly skipped it. In the second half, she focused on the history of the McCarthy family.
"It rose in World War I and peaked in World War II. Until now, the McCarthy family is a major shareholder of the a.s.sociation of Superpowered Beings and has several consortiums under it."
This was public information. Of course, there won't be any details on the McCarthy family being the undercover of the church in the United States. However, the historical coincidences slightly dispelled the doubts of the Elder Huayu.
"Baoze group should have more detailed information. I'll ask them for it tomorrow." Elder Huayu turned off her mobile phone and started meditating.
...
The next morning, early in the morning, before the commencement of the Forum Conference, the audience was already fully seated.
Today would be the last day of the conference. To be exact, it was only half a day!
By noon, the top three would be decided. Who would be the champion in the younger generation of Demon Descendents? It would all be decided today.
