Unimpeded, this is the recent target of the Kangyang District Realm Walker team’s pursuit— one of Black Unusual's closest aides, a third-level Wu Gu Master. On their way to the meeting venue, Li Dongze calmly advised: “Based on information we gathered from the spirits of previously defeated Wu Gu Masters, ‘Unimpeded’ is a third-level Wu Gu Master with experience likely exceeding 90%, representing the pinnacle of an Elevated Stage existence.” Zhang Yuanqing nodded seriously. The combat strength of Evil Organizations surpasses that of ordinary Orderly Professions. With Unimpeded’s experience at 90%, even a third-level Night Wandering Deity— if less experienced— would likely be overwhelmed and knocked down upon encounter. Guan Ya smiled, “Don’t worry—we have numbers on our side.” While the Evil Organizations are strong, the Orderly Professions boast significantly greater group size in comparison. Not long after, they arrived at their destination—a quiet private venue nestled within a bustling area. The place is named the "Green Vine Wellness Studio," specializing in beauty, wellness, and leisure services. The interior features abundant greenery, with lively pets—cats and dogs—strolling through lush lawns. The decor embodies a classic Chinese style: elegant, ancient ambiance, featuring wicker chairs, round tables, wooden carvings, and ink wash paintings. As they entered the studio and walked along the paved grass path, Zhang Yuanqing admired the scenic views, while Guan Ya remarked beside him: “This is one of the assets owned by the Bǎi Huā Association. It serves as a regular outpost for our team. The person in charge is the Green Vine Captain.” Seeing Zhang Yuanqing look puzzled, she explained with mild frustration: “The woman who wears a painted silk robe, has a full chest and round hips— that’s her.” Zhang Yuanqing suddenly understood: "Ah! She’s a Scorpio!" Guan Ya silently muttered under her breath. After walking for several minutes, they reached a sunlit room measuring thirty square meters in size. At the center stood a rustic long wooden table, with about a dozen Realm Walkers seated around it. Zhang Yuanqing followed the Chief to open the door and surveyed the scene— recognizing several familiar faces: the racing suit-wearing elder leader Bai Long, the elegant woman in a silk robe named Green Vine, the tall, well-built man in a tight-fitting outfit, Da Ji Ba, and the middle-aged man wearing a miner’s hat, Tang Guoqiang. As for the others, he did not recognize them yet. Was that the miner’s hat? What function could it serve to make one's head strong as iron? Zhang Yuanqing stared at Tang Guoqiang again—the owner of an architectural company who had changed his clothes but insisted on wearing the hat. Previously, he hadn’t found it odd. Now, he realized— many items carried by Realm Walkers were props. "Ah, our Night Wandering Deity has arrived!" Bai Long raised her eyebrows with a warm tone. "How about your experience working under Li Dongze? Not satisfied? Come to me anytime—you’ll have fine wine and meat, and beautiful women on hand." Da Ji Ba chuckled: “I think I’m not going to grow any prospects under Li Dongze—unless he starts sending me girlfriends.” The official Realm Walkers gathered at the long table turned their gaze toward Zhang Yuanqing—curious, assessing, kind—and instantly made him the center of attention. While his experience in the She Ling Tunnel had only brought him minor recognition, after conquering the Jinshui Park, the ID ‘Yuan Shi Tian Zun’ quickly elevated him to a star status within the Longhai Branch. Li Dongze opened his mouth— instinctively wanting to step in and shield Zhang Yuanqing from potential embarrassment—but then thought better of it. Zhang Yuanqing said solemnly: “Perhaps in just a few months, Chief will have to follow me around.” The group was momentarily startled—then burst into laughter, beginning to tease Li Dongze. Li Dongze guided two subordinates to seats and cleared his throat before saying: "Let’s get down to business." The Realm Walkers at the table resumed their smiles. The Green Vine Captain, as host, explained: “Our eyes on the ground spotted Unimpeded at the Rumen Plaza neighborhood villa district this morning—but we still can’t determine whether it's a place of concealment or a site of active collaboration.” Guan Ya leaned close to Zhang Yuanqing and whispered: “Our Bǎi Huā Association’s eyes are roaming animals—scattered throughout Longhai.” Roaming animals? Yes—that is, the Wood Demon, another title for the Sage-level Wood Demon. Zhang Yuanqing nodded slightly. Tang Guoqiang frowned: “That villa district is familiar to me—it's where affluent residents live. To capture them, we’d have to clear the entire area.” Da Ji Ba immediately disagreed: “No—we can’t do that. Clearing it would create too much noise. Unimpeded will definitely flee and escape. We must strike swiftly—surprise him completely.” He disliked over-preparation—just go in and act. Li Dongze paused thoughtfully: “Clearing the area is indeed not ideal—it might scare off Unimpeded. I propose two options. First, request Fu Bai Fu Chang to intervene for a swift resolution. Second, use props to isolate Unimpeded’s villa from the outside world—then execute a closing-in strategy.” A man with a somber demeanor raised his eyebrow: “Fu Bai Fu Chang is currently engaged in pursuit of Black Unusual and may not have time to assist us here. We must prepare thoroughly, design our plan carefully—and not rely solely on him for support…” Zhang Yuanqing listened attentively—there were 15 official Realm Walkers gathered, five captains and ten elite members, forming a dedicated task force in the Kangyang District focused exclusively on Black Unusual. Such a group should be more than sufficient to handle one third-level Wu Gu Master. “I have a question…” Zhang Yuanqing raised his hand. The others turned to him. “What if ‘Unimpeded’ is also an Evil Organization member controlled by the Fallen Cup, like Ou Xiangrong?” Zhang Yuanqing asked. Ou Xiangrong had escaped capture precisely because the power of the Fallen Cup surged—what was originally a fatal force became a reserve asset. Da Ji Ba grinned: “Don’t worry—we have props specifically designed to counter evil forces.” Zhang Yuanqing nodded, reassured. Today, Green Vine wore a pale-off-white silk robe and looked warmly at Zhang Yuanqing, smiling gently: “What more do you have in mind?” First deploy the Red Dance Shoes, then activate the Cat King Speaker to command attention, then exchange visual contact with the young comic, then summon the Ghost Bride—once that sequence is complete, even a third-level Wu Gu Master would either fall or be severely weakened. As for me—the host—I’ll remain behind and manage everything from the shadows… Zhang Yuanqing shook her head: “I’ll follow the arrangements of the captains.” Though she offered no concrete suggestions, the captains were satisfied with her attitude. The Green Vine Captain said: “First, notify Fu Bai Fu Chang to confirm whether we proceed under Plan One or Plan Two. In either case, it’s best if the operation takes place at night—this will minimize disruption and impact. “And regarding that villa district—replace as many of its staff as possible with our own people. Not all—the ones we keep should be integrated into our team.” …… On the second floor of the villa, Fu Qingyang wore a crisp white suit and a stylish short ponytail, his expression stern as he knocked on Ling Jun’s door. “What’s up?” Ling Jun, in contrast to Fu Qingyang’s style, yawned and complained: “I played cards with my ideal match until dawn—could I possibly sleep just a little longer? Oh, don’t worry—I’m not the type to stay loyal only to your rabbit lady.” “The officer from Fenghua District reported that they’ve located Black Unusual and are preparing deployment,” Fu Qingyang said. “I’d like you to join them as well.” “Have we found Black Unusual?” Ling Jun’s eyes lit up—she immediately became energized, stepping toward the stairs—only to pause after a few steps. Fu Qingyang expected her to say: “I’ll change my clothes,” but instead, Ling Jun replied: “Wait—I’ve scheduled an evening appointment with my girl. I need to let her know and reschedule for another time.” Fu Qingyang’s expression grew even more stern… …… At exactly Twelve O’Clock, three black business cars arrived at the villa, parking quietly in a secluded area. The doors opened—official Realm Walkers of the task force stepped down one by one in silence and order. Zhang Yuanqing looked toward that distant villa—since Fu Bai Fu Chang had other commitments, this arrest operation would be fully managed by the task force. A young man dressed as a security officer stepped forward from the shadows and approached Green Vine, speaking softly: “Captain, Unimpeded is inside—I saw him enter personally.” Green Vine’s gentle face was now filled with gravity. Gently stroking her orange cat in her arms, she said quietly: “He hasn’t been discovered yet, has he?” The young man shook his head: “I wore a mask and only glanced at him—didn’t pay much attention. The subsequent surveillance is being handled by Xiao Q.” Xiao Q was the bird that Ling Jun raised. Green Vine nodded. She opened her inventory, reaching out from the void to grasp a piece of dry wood—two fingers thick and half a foot long. In her view, information about the prop material appeared: [Name: Mystical Garden] [Type: Auxiliary] [Function: Barrier, Sealing] [Introduction: A powerful living wood that mostly rests dormant. When touched to soil, it awakens and transforms its surrounding area into a garden—isolating it from outside world, allowing only entry and no exit, lasting for thirty minutes.] [Note: The introduction already clearly explains the cost—I can hardly add anything more.] She glanced around her colleagues and advised: “We have just half an hour.” She briefly summarized the cost of the prop. Then she pulled out a red rope, tied it securely around the orange cat’s body, stroking its head gently. “Go!” The orange cat leaped lightly to the outside, swiftly heading toward that solitary villa standing in darkness.
