Chapter 1929: The Whereabouts of the Golden Bone
"Mr. Xiao!"
"We’ve found the whereabouts of the thirteenth Golden Bone!"
As soon as the phone was connected, Long Qie’s somewhat excited voice came through from the cell phone.
Upon hearing this news, Xiao Zheng’s mind was instantly blown, becoming completely blank.
"Hello? Mr. Xiao, are you still listening?"
"Hello?"
It took a while before Xiao Zheng was startled awake by Long Qie’s somewhat urgent words, and then he quickly said, "I’m still here, is the news you just mentioned true? Have you really found the whereabouts of the thirteenth Golden Bone?"
"That’s right, but this Golden Bone involves a very large organization." After a pause, Long Qie continued, "It’s a serious matter, why don’t you come to the headquarters now, and we’ll discuss it face to face?"
"No matter what organization it is, as long as it involves the Golden Bone, I will not compromise!" A sharp glint flashed in Xiao Zheng’s eyes as he said, "I’m heading to headquarters now, wait for me."
After saying that, he hung up the phone.
Half an hour later, Xiao Zheng arrived at Sky Net headquarters.
Upon entering Long Qie’s office, he found that not only was Long Qie there, but Evil Eyes and Titan were also sitting nearby.
Seeing Xiao Zheng come in, the three of them stood up simultaneously.
Xiao Zheng gestured for them to sit down, then asked, "What exactly is going on? Who is the Golden Bone you’ve found in the possession of?"
The Golden Bone concerns his life.
Collecting all the Golden Bones is the most important thing for Xiao Zheng.
Upon hearing this, after the three exchanged glances, Evil Eyes said to Long Qie, "This matter should be explained by you. After all, you were the first to discover the news, you’ll know more details."
Long Qie nodded, cleared his throat, and began, "Actually, the matter of the Golden Bone should start from after the events at the Southern Border..."
After listening to his narrative, Xiao Zheng finally understood the whole story.
It turns out that after they eradicated the Demon God Sect, they looted everything that belonged to it and its affiliate forces, then brought it back to headquarters for sorting and planning.
While organizing some classics, a brother responsible for sorting suddenly found that one of the documents recorded the location of a Golden Bone. He immediately reported it to Long Qie, who then conveyed it to Xiao Zheng.
"So whose hands is this Golden Bone in now? Is it in the hands of the Demon God Sect?" Xiao Zheng asked.
Upon hearing this, Long Qie shook his head and said, "The thirteenth Golden Bone is in the hands of a Saint Heir of the Bright Church. The Demon God Sect also intended to seize this Golden Bone, but for some unknown reason, the Demon God Sect let the Saint Heir of the Bright Church take it back to the West."
"The Bright Church? The thirteenth Golden Bone fell into the hands of the Bright Church?" Xiao Zheng’s face showed a hint of surprise, then he couldn’t help but frown deeply.
No wonder Long Qie’s tone had seemed so serious over the phone.
So the thirteenth Golden Bone was actually linked to the Bright Church.
Although Xiao Zheng had never interacted with people from the Bright Church, he had definitely heard of its name. It is absolutely the largest religious power in the entire West, if not globally. There are countless experts, even the Blood Clan led by Hades can only submit to its suppression.
Xiao Zheng had once asked Hades about matters regarding the Bright Church.
Because at that time, he was curious why Hades would lead the Blood Clan to settle long-term in remote towns or mountains away from human major cities.
Back then, Hades’ tone revealed deep fear towards the Bright Church.
At that time, she gave Xiao Zheng a direct comparison.
That is, when fighting two equal-level Bright Sect followers and Blood Clan members, without using any trump cards, one equal-level Bright Sect follower’s combat power is equivalent to ten equal-level Blood Clan members!
This is not only due to the innate restraint of power but also because of the Bright Church’s formidable strength!
It is this kind of extremely unequal power that makes even a proud and overbearing figure like Hades lead the Blood Clan to live in remote towns and mountains away from major cities.
The Bright Church is absolutely the most challenging enemy in the world!
Actually, these are not the main concern.
The one point that truly makes Xiao Zheng wary of the Bright Church is because Hades once told him, if there is a person in the world who could possess power beyond the Supreme Realm, that person would absolutely be the Church God of the Bright Church!
This is a renowned title throughout the entire West!
Although it’s unclear if this Church God revered as closest to divinity is still alive, everyone has heard of his name and legends!
Xiao Zheng fell silent, for a moment not knowing what to say.
Seeing him with a furrowed brow, the three—Long Qie, Evil Eyes, and Titan—couldn’t help but sigh. They could understand Xiao Zheng’s mood at this moment, for if it were them, their expressions would definitely be worse than Xiao Zheng’s.
All because of the Bright Church!
After who knows how long of silence, Xiao Zheng’s tightly furrowed brows relaxed, followed by a determined brilliance bursting from his gaze: "So what if it’s the Bright Church? I’ve said it, in this world, no one can stop me from getting the Golden Bone!"
"Moreover, in terms of strength and number of experts, we shouldn’t be much inferior compared to the Bright Church. If it really comes to a fight, it’s uncertain who would win!"
Feeling his imposing aura, the three—Long Qie, Evil Eyes, and Titan—were equally inspired.
Actually, at their level, no matter what they encounter, they wouldn’t really feel fear. After all, practicing martial arts is all about a relentless pursuit. If one were to cower at every encounter, how could they ever break through?
Long Qie laughed heartily, "I figured Mr. Xiao wouldn’t be frightened by the Bright Church. To be honest, when I first learned about the Bright Church, I was taken aback. But once I calmed down, I believed we still have a chance to obtain the Golden Bone."
"What’s the difference to a fight, we’ve already been through a sea of corpses and blood, there’s no reason to fear a mere Bright Church!" Titan said with great boldness.
Though perhaps the Bright Church shouldn’t be described as ’mere,’ it certainly demonstrates their determination to support Xiao Zheng.
Faced with their trust and support, Xiao Zheng would be lying if he said he wasn’t moved.
With the support of his brothers, Xiao Zheng was even more confident about the upcoming action!
