Divine Beast Adventures - Chapter 552: A Person Blessed with Luck
Edited by Aelryinth
Back at the Xinjing City military division, Huang Juyun was furrowing his brow.
It had already been a few days, and there was still no news from Zhang Che. God knew how he was doing.
Of course, he wasn’t worrying about Zhang Che’s safety. In the whole of Jingzhou, there was probably not a single beastmaster who could threaten him.
What he was worrying about was why there wasn’t any progress on Zhang Che’s side after a few days. Zhang Che should have informed him long ago if he discovered anything and had the military coordinate with him, striking at the evil cult in Jingzhou.
However, Huang Juyun wasn’t aware that Zhang Che wasn’t targeting the evil cult in Jingzhou, but the entire organization, wanting to take down the nest of the largest evil cult in all of Hua Xia!

After another two days, the growth of the spiritual herbs in the field was looking even more optimistic.
Some of the herbs whose grades weren’t high were growing at a speed visible to the naked eye. The spiritual force on them was increasing day after day.
It could be seen that in the near future, the spiritual herbs growing above the spiritual crystals would more or less rise in rank, with the exception of some of the top grade ones! It was incredibly gratifying!
Huang Juyun even wondered… if he transplanted some ordinary herbs over to the field, would they transform into spiritual herbs in the future?
Well, he decided against it after thinking for a bit.
After all, Zhang Che that kid had a pet with the ability to sense spiritual herbs. The herbal field would be filled up with spiritual herbs sooner or later. Using ordinary herbs to bump up the numbers was not worth it at all.
Suddenly, Huang Juyun’s personal terminal vibrated, informing him of a new notification. He quickly opened it and saw it was Zhang Che who had sent him a message.
He quickly opened it and took a quick glance before freezing on the spot. His mouth opened slightly, not daring to believe what he just read.
That freaking kid was truly too daring! He had actually followed the Freemasons in secret and crossed the waters to the coast!
That wasn’t the end of it. Zhang Che also said that those cult members were probably returning to their headquarters, and that as long as he continued tailing them, he’d discover the location of the Freemasons’ headquarters sooner or later!
With that, they might be able to bring down the Freemasons, the largest evil cult in all of Hua Xia, and the organization with the deepest feud with them, in one fell swoop!
“Haha, good, good! I knew this kid was better than the others, but I didn’t expect him to follow the Freemasons to their nest! I’ll see how this evil cult is going to continue surviving!” Huang Juyun burst out laughing, feeling unusually comforted.
Once Zhang Che found where the Freemasons’ nest was, not only could they destroy it in one go and exact revenge for them ambushing Zhang Che and Huang Tielan, this would also add a nice shining line to his resume.
More importantly, bringing down the Freemasons was a good thing to the government, the military, and even the common folk!
After his initial excitement died down, Huang Juyun replied to Zhang Che’s message, telling him to watch out for his safety. The Freemasons were one of the largest evil cults in Hua Xia, after all. Heavens knew how many experts they had in their nest. It would be very dangerous if he was slightly careless.
He even warned Zhang Che to not take action by himself after he found the Freemasons’ nest. The boy should inform him and wait for him to contact the local military, and gather forces to strike at them hard, aiming to bring them down in one go!

In a densely populated residential district in Xinhua City, Huanan…
He Luotu was looking at the information his men had sent back from various locations, his brow slightly furrowed.
Recently, the Freemasons have suffered a rather huge setback. Their branches in many places were unable to operate normally. Their members could only keep in secret contact, afraid of exposing themselves.
Of course, He Luotu had expected this long ago. In truth, he didn’t care about losing those weak members at all.
The only thing annoying him was that the Bei Du branch had failed to achieve their objective after investing so many resources, only killing a few unimportant ordinary university students. It was far from his expectations.
Not only that, the Bei Du branch had lost almost all of their senior members in that operation. The branch was now a mess, troubling him to no end.
The consequences of this were slowly showing itself. The government had increased their intensity in dealing with cult organizations, and some of his clones were already feeling dissatisfied with him.
“Splitting myself up to take over others indeed have quite a few side effects. We can actually be affected by the leftover soul of the possessed. Although it’s not serious, it’s a headache regardless.”
He Luotu frowned, annoyed with this matter, but he could do nothing about it.
This clone of his was similarly affected by He Luotu’s soul remnant. There seemed to be some estrangement between him and his other clones. It was impossible for them to work with a hundred percent unity.
This matter was very profound. They were all clones of the same soul, but their opinions had started to differ now. This was a problem this supreme demon had never thought of.
Fortunately, the clones’ main objective was the same. They were all working to open up the spatial barrier and allow the demons to descend into this world once more, or connect to the spatial tunnel in the beast world. At that time, they’d be able to confront their enemies and fight for the endless lands.
“It’s time for us to move. If this continues, it’s truly a little too passive…” He Luotu mumbled to himself after a long time. Afterwards, he contacted his other clones through a unique soul method.
Although Mercury was enormous, and He Luotu had no idea where his other clones were exactly, he could communicate with them by exhausting a certain amount of soul force.
That tiny bit of soul force used to communicate with his other clones didn’t count for much. He could regain it from those devout cult members.
Soon, He Luotu contacted his other clones, and after an intense discussion and argument on a spiritual level, they finally reached a consensus. They couldn’t allow the Hua Xia government and military to continue striking at their factions.
As a result, going forward, all the evil cults in not only Hua Xia, but all regions scattered across Mercury, started moving in secret. They would cause huge incidents or start to infiltrate the government and military, deepening their roots into human society and develop even more rapidly.
On the surface, very few knew the link between the strange movements across all of Mercury. They only thought some crazy people were doing crazy things since the beast swarm was slowly nearing. At the worst, some conspirators wanted to usurp greater authority, and were coordinating all of this in the dark.
Nobody realized that there were actually remnants of the demons left in Mercury after their retreat.
That was, until Zhang Che followed the Xinjing branch cult members to the Freemasons’ headquarters.
Zhang Che never thought he would become the hero of all of humanity and discover this huge shocking secret.
He was indeed blessed with the world’s greatest luck, like a man destined to become the savior of the world.
Of course, Zhang Che never wanted to become the savior of the world or whatnot. He only wanted to have the strength to keep him and his family safe in times of crisis.
