Chapter 504 They Can't Stop You
Chapter 504 They Can't Stop You
To prevent the kidnapped sage from crying out, Xu Ning grabbed a colorful rope and swiftly used a "giant's reins" technique on Azar's face, sealing his mouth shut.
After "Ape's Reins," he casually followed up with "Four Horses Binding." Although this binding method was complicated, Xu Ning was skilled in it and quickly subdued the Great Sage.
Satisfied, Xu Ning pulled and tied Hazard's wrists and ankles. He turned his head and saw that Kong was still holding the female scholar in the same position. Both the hostage-taker and the hostage-taker stared in disbelief at their tied "samples".
"Don't just stand there, gag and tie her up, it won't look good if she screams later."
When his younger brother messed up at a crucial moment, Xu Ning immediately stepped in to help.
The female scholar blushed as she glanced at the Great Sage, tears welling up in her eyes. She covered her mouth with both hands and shook her head repeatedly, indicating that she would absolutely not make a sound.
Just as Sora was feeling a bit awkward, another person squeezed in with a "whoosh"—it was Desia, who had followed him.
After glancing around, Dixia roughly guessed what Xu Ning and Kong were going to do.
"Alright, you can go do whatever you want. I'll keep an eye on this girl. As for this thing on the ground... let's put it in a bag. It looks too ugly like this."
Dixia glanced at Xu Ning with disdain, reached out and stuffed the Great Sage into the cloth bag, then took the female scholar who was lying in her empty arms.
Xu Ning was quite satisfied that he had only captured the two great sages and that the dream had not returned to its beginning.
He sent Sora with Paimon to accompany Dina Zede, while he himself went to find Nel.
When Xu Ning saw Nilu again, although the little flower girl was still standing there with her eyes closed, Xu Ning could clearly sense that she was not at peace.
It seemed that as time went by, something she was extremely worried about would happen.
Xu Ning walked over and stared at the double-horned gold ornament on her head for a while.
"very nervous?"
Upon hearing Xu Ning's voice, Nilu opened her eyes and smiled, "No... actually, a little bit, I'm just afraid..."
Xu Ning noticed that although Nilu was talking to him, her gaze kept unconsciously drifting towards the doorway where the Great Sage might appear. He knew exactly what was going on.
"Are you worried that people from the Order of the Church will appear there and try to stop the performance of the Dance of the Flower Goddess? Didn't I tell you, leave everything to me? You just need to hold the Flower Goddess's Birthday Festival perfectly to the end."
Nilu nodded, but couldn't help asking again, "But... what if the person who comes... you can't handle them... what if it's a disciplinary officer, or even..."
"Even if the Great Sage himself comes? Do you think I'd be afraid just because he comes!" Xu Ning laughed heartily.
If I was 70% confident before, I'm now 90% confident.
“Nilu, look, you’re about to go on stage. They haven’t shown up yet, which means the Flower Goddess’s Birthday Festival will definitely be a success. You must believe in yourself. No matter what obstacles there are, they cannot stop your devout dance.”
Upon hearing Xu Ning's words, Nilu finally shifted her gaze from the entrance to the Grand Bazaar and walked intently to the center of the theater stage.
"Everyone……"
Nilu had just uttered two words when a sudden burst of noise erupted.
Although no one in the audience spoke, it was as if countless voices filled with mockery and insults were emanating from them.
Seeing Nilu's tense face, Xu Ning shouted loudly from the side, "They can't stop you..."
Although Nilu couldn't hear Xu Ning's voice at all amidst the noise, she unconsciously looked in Xu Ning's direction at that moment.
Seeing Xu Ning waving his gourd and shouting loudly, Nilu felt her heart suddenly settle down.
"Sorry to keep you all waiting..."
Nilu spoke again, and this time all the sound vanished instantly.
But with a piercing "beep," the Flower Goddess Festival returned to its starting point once again.
"The phase duration exceeded expectations, and the scenario architecture collapsed. If this continues, all previous efforts may be in vain."
A cold voice sounded.
"Then we should speed up the 'harvest' process. Giving up at this point is unacceptable..."
"But that would result in casualties!"
"So what? We can't turn back now. Let's continue. Compared to the outcome, these are just insignificant costs."
Sora and Paimon stood in their rooms, both looking somewhat dejected.
"Did it fail again?"
Xu Ning couldn't help but laugh as he looked at the two of them.
"We haven't succeeded, but we haven't failed either. We're sure we'll succeed this time."
