Strange Cards

Chapter 334 A Subtle Feeling of Unease

"A general born of revenge?"

Chun casually found a rock to sit on, looked at Gu Nian, and swung her two fair and slender legs.

"Is that woman named Liu An important to Little Gray Hair?"

"Could anything be more important than his little catgirl?"

Gu Nian shook his head, lit a cigarette with his only remaining left hand, and said.

"Xiaoya."

"It was wrong of me not to take care of you much when you were little, but you should have some concept of family."

"I'm happy that you've turned everyone from the other world into brothers and sisters, but I still want to talk to you about the meaning of family."

Chun blushed instantly when she heard Gu Nian call her Xiao Ya, but Gu Nian acted as if he didn't notice and continued.

"Liu An, although Shi Yu calls her Sister Liu An, Liu An holds a much higher place in Shi Yu's heart than her sister."

"In Shi Yu's heart, Liu An holds a much higher position than his adoptive mother."

"Give Shiyu a knife, then tie his mother and Liu An to your front. You must kill one of them to save the other."

"Shiyu's knife will plunge into his mother's heart without hesitation in the next second. Liu An is too important to him."

"After he was seriously injured and fell into a coma in the first battle after obtaining the Mysterious Card, it was Liu An who treated him. When his cancer was not cured, it was also Liu An who tried his best to treat him."

"Liu An didn't use chemotherapy, but instead used a more difficult but more effective surgery to help him."

"Liu An performed a massive surgery that would normally require the cooperation of at least twelve people. Even with the assistance of mechanical equipment, it was still an extremely challenging task for her."

"Moreover, Liu An treats him like his own child. Under various circumstances, Liu An has basically become the most sensitive target in the Southern Base."

"To move is to die" is no joke.

Chun pulled out a lollipop from somewhere, tore it open, and popped it into her mouth.

"Could it be that they...?"

Gu Nian nodded.

"The person who caused Liu An's death was a hunter who had recently joined the Northern Base, and he died a day after killing Liu An."

"As for why it takes a whole day, it's because Liu An is to be buried that day, and Shi Yu is available to help."

"In the end, Shigure will go to find the murderer who directly killed Ryuan, and thus the demon in his heart will be born and turn evil."

"Liu An's death caused a riot at the Southern Base, and Qi Wu, as the Southern Hunter, could only try his best to restrain the remaining Southern Hunters, but he could not restrain Shi Yu."

"Shiyu is the sixth headhunter without the Hunter Base. Even the chief hunter Fengchuan doesn't have the strength to contend with Shiyu now."

"Even if he temporarily sealed Shigure's Asura power with the tattoo on Shigure's left arm, that was only a small part of Shigure's Asura power. The vast majority of the Asura power was in that sword."

I won't reveal the script for now, but I can tell you about the ending first.

"It depends on whether you want to hear it or not."

Chun nodded and said.

"Although I quite like how things are going."

"But I still want to know how this exciting event ends."

Gu Nian nodded, stubbed out his cigarette, put Bai Lei back in its sheath, and carried it on his back.

"In the end, the hunter who had just joined the Northern Base was killed by Shigure using the exceptional opportunity of the Hunter God Bullet."

"The Northern Base felt they had been humiliated and were about to make a move when Shigure struck them all down with a single blow, leaving them all severely injured."

"If it weren't for Liu An's daughter, that little girl named Liu Yu, stopping Shi Yu at the last moment, Shi Yu would have slaughtered the entire Northern Base."

"They seem to have forgotten the cruelty of the Asuras."

"Shigure can be that nice guy, but before that, Shigure has another identity called Shura."

"The script will soon tell of Shigure's death."

"At that time, the thirteenth sinner will be able to return to his rightful place."

……

Under his identity as a hunter, Shi Yu quickly completed the procedures for leaving the country and then headed straight for the grand auction house.

Shi Yu, relying on her wealth, directly entered the VIP second floor, where she slowly browsed through the items to be auctioned.

"Well enough."

"This piece of jewelry looks alright; it's perfect as a birthday gift for my sister."

At that moment, Shiyu felt a sudden, inexplicable pang of fear, followed by a wave of panic that swept over her entire body.

"What happened?"

A shockwave instantly erupted around Shigure, pushing everything around the VIP room to the side.

Shigure thought an enemy was attacking, but after losing contact for a while, she realized that she was abroad and there was no way she could have an enemy who knew her.

After realizing she was being overly sensitive, Shiyu used Time Flow to restore the VIP room. Then, after sitting on the leather sofa, a maid poured her a glass of iced juice.

The cold juice went down, but Shiyu's inner turmoil did not subside.

What's wrong with me?

"Have we been fighting too frequently lately, making us a little sensitive?"

Shigure's belief in himself was not without reason; after the Battle of the South China Sea, Shigure was in a sensitive emotional state for a long time.

Even the slightest rustle of wind would make Yu think that an enemy was attacking, but what Shigure didn't know was that these physical conditions had nothing to do with sensitivity.

A was surprised to sense the power that was faintly budding within Shigure's body, but was not yet fully formed.

"A completely new capability?"

"A prophet? No, not like that."

"I remember this kid's card fusion coefficient is ∞. It's impossible that he exceeded the coefficient by fusing twelve spade cards."

"Although there is a risk of turning into a demon by fusing thirteen cards, it is impossible for me to develop demonic abilities by fusing only twelve cards."

Neither A nor Shigure knew that this was a newly developed ability of Shigure, and even A did not realize that the source of this power was actually the Spade card.

Only under special circumstances will this new ability fully awaken and lend a helping hand to Shigure.

However, the time is not right yet, so Shigure can only passively borrow a small portion of this new ability.

Shi Yu patted his face, drank the juice in one gulp, lit a cigarette, and started smoking.

"Never mind, let's not worry about it."

"I quickly took this piece of jewelry back to China, waiting to celebrate Liu An's birthday."

"I must get this Azure Ocean dress for my sister."

……

Qi Wu saw Liu An, who had just received the news but was relentlessly pressing him for the source of it, and helplessly slapped his forehead.

"Liu An, go back. You can't complete this mission."

"When Xiaoyu comes back, let him go there in person."

"The danger level is too high. Only a light rain of natural disaster level can reliably handle this mission."

Liu An, slightly out of breath, stared intently into Qi Wu's eyes.

"Boss, tell me with your hand on your heart."

"Is this mission related to what happened back then?"

"Is it related to the deaths of my son and husband back then?"
