Chapter 289: Chapter 190: The Secret Realm’s Situation

"Is Su Yu inside?"

A young man’s voice called out.

Hearing the man outside mention Su Yu by name, many people inside the room realized it at least meant he was likely on their side.

Many members of the special organization began to wonder the same thing: could this be reinforcements? After all, the strange phenomenon here had far exceeded their initial assessment.

It made sense for the special organization to send more people,

But...

After what had just happened, no one dared to be the one to open the door. Only Su Yu—who knew his older brother quite well, after all—recognized the voice as Su Xing’s in an instant.

Still,

he was a little puzzled.

Why would Su Xing show himself now?

’It was true that with so many things happening, the name Su Xing wasn’t as well-known in the special organization as it used to be. Only the few Sequencers from Southern Cang City might recognize it immediately. But still, this didn’t fit Su Xing’s usual style of keeping a low profile.’

Indeed, if Su Xing hadn’t reached an understanding with Li Longxuan, he certainly wouldn’t have revealed himself. But now, things were completely different.

He had always stayed hidden before, primarily to avoid being targeted by the Martial God Hall and the Spiritual Sect. But with Li Longxuan’s help, he now had a powerful enough protective umbrella in Cang City. He no longer needed to be as cautious as before.

Of course,

with Li Longxuan’s prestige and influence,

even if Su Xing revealed his identity to a few people, Li Longxuan could have easily helped him cover it up again.

But

after everything he had been through,

Su Xing now had more than enough strength to protect himself.

Besides, with a great battle looming,

there was little point in continuing to hide.

"Who’s out there?!"

Someone inside shouted, mustering their courage.

At the same time, Su Yu immediately started to run over and open the door for Su Xing.

But,

they weren’t fast enough.

The question had barely faded when, just as Su Yu started to move, the crisp SNAP of breaking metal echoed through the room.

BAM!

The tightly shut door suddenly swung open. A tall man and a girl who looked very much like a student walked in, passing through both the doorway and an energy barrier.

"Sorry about that. It was so quiet I thought no one was in here."

Su Xing tried to hide the broken doorknob behind his back, but quite a few people still saw it. The sight made the ordinary people’s eyes twitch, while the Sequencers remained calm.

After all, breaking a doorknob

wasn’t some incredible feat.

Anyone with decent training and physical strength could do it, even if they weren’t an Extraordinary Being. What truly puzzled the Extraordinary Beings from the special organization was that neither of the two newcomers had the slightest trace of an Extraordinary aura.

’Ordinary people?’

’But... how could ordinary people have made it through the fog to get here? And what about that thing outside the door just now? Where did it go?’

Their minds immediately started racing.

It was perfectly normal, of course.

The path of the Martial Artist was one that naturally made it easy to conceal one’s aura.

Furthermore,

Su Xing’s power far surpassed that of any Sequencer in the room, leaving them with no hope or ability of seeing through him.

Just then, Su Yu’s voice cut through their thoughts. "Big bro, what are you doing here?"

"Big bro?"

None of the Sequencers present had been involved in the early investigation of the mysterious expert. They only knew the names "mysterious expert" and "Su Xing"; they had no idea what either of them looked like.

Now,

hearing Su Yu’s words,

it all clicked into place.

’So...’

’Su Xing was here for his brother?’

’But,’

’the organization’s records say Su Xing is a regular person, right?’

’How did he get through that dense fog without being corrupted by it?’

"Let me introduce myself. I’m Lu An, one of your brother’s teammates. Our organization has some files on you, so I wanted to ask: how did you get through the fog?"

Lu An was the one who had been standing beside Su Yu earlier.

Su Xing’s gaze rested on him for a moment, and he suddenly understood why the man was speaking that way. It was obvious they’d mistaken him for a normal person.

"Just got lucky, I guess."

Su Xing said with a smile. And in a way, he had been lucky. He and Lu Anning had encountered almost nothing on their way over besides Hanhan and that woman.

"Lucky?"

Lu An was clearly taken aback for a moment, but he quickly accepted Su Xing’s explanation. After all, most of the ordinary people who had survived this long had done so through sheer luck.

Good luck,

there was no shame in admitting to being lucky.

He just hadn’t expected an ordinary person like Su Xing to have the guts to venture into a place like this from the outside.

"Then..."

"Did you see the thing outside the door?"

Lu An asked.

"No."

Su Xing said, shaking his head.

He truly hadn’t seen it, but his senses as a Martial Artist had felt it. The thing, however, seemed terrified of Su Xing; it had vanished the moment he drew near.

Hearing that Su Xing hadn’t seen it, Lu An felt both relieved and disappointed. He was relieved that his comrade’s brother hadn’t run into danger, but disappointed that they still didn’t know what the creature looked like.

"What was that thing?"
