Magic City Airport.
Lu Mei looked calm and composed. Being watched by onlookers was something she had long grown accustomed to.
Most people only glanced at her before looking away—after all, what kind of decent person would brazenly stare at a beautiful woman with a lecherous gaze?
However, very quickly, Lu Mei sharply sensed a line of sight that made her extremely uncomfortable. She frowned and looked toward Jun Yaojin beside her. The latter also happened to glance over, it was clear she had noticed it as well.
The two of them subtly swept their eyes toward the source of the gaze and discovered a strange group of four. The man in the middle, wearing a silver leather jacket, smiled at them with ill intent.
Seeing this, Lu Mei felt that the aura around the man in the silver jacket was particularly unpleasant. She couldn't help but lower her voice and say to Lu Jun, "Look at those people over there. They've been staring at me the whole time. Their eyes are a bit…"
When Lu Jun heard this, he felt uncomfortable. Anyone would be angered if their girlfriend was deliberately ogled with lustful eyes.
He had already noticed the silver-jacketed man and the other three. Despite their odd appearances, the strength in their auras shocked him, they were all mid-to-upper-level Super-tier mages.
Since when had such powerful international Super-tier mages secretly entered the territory of China?
Lu Jun didn't recognize the four of them. After all, no matter how familiar one was with the original story, real people always differed somewhat, and the vast world was filled with countless beings, it wouldn't be limited to just a few known characters.
However, that didn't prevent him from giving the silver-jacketed man a small lesson.
He let out a cold snort and released the suppression on his vast aura. Instantly, a layer of white-gold radiance surged from his flesh and blood. Metallic divine patterns emerged, and a kind of supreme, noble sharpness overflowed.
Basharil originally wanted to see just who Lu Jun was, someone capable of winning the favor of two beauties. But when his gaze swept over, the dazzling white-gold brilliance seized his entire field of vision.
"Ah—!"
The silver-jacketed man, Bashalio, let out a miserable scream. His body staggered and collapsed to the ground as he clutched his eyes, streams of bloody tears flowing down his face.
The travelers present were alarmed and confused, all turning to look, what kind of accident had just happened?
Immediately after, Lu Jun's expression remained indifferent. With a thought, his Psychic Element azure star ocean trembled, and a strange fluctuation spread out, concealing Lu Mei and the other two.
Suddenly, the surrounding crowd felt inexplicably that something was missing. Soon after, they completely forgot that Lu Jun and the three others had even been part of the group.
Under Lu Jun's exquisite Psychic Magic, they became utterly ordinary. Passersby who glanced at them would subconsciously ignore them. Even as they walked through the crowded airport, the crowd automatically parted to form a path, yet no one noticed anything amiss.
At the same time, Lu Jun had a sudden inspiration. With a single thought, the star constellations formed, and Soul Capture and Mind Control · Mortal World was released, manipulating a mysterious aura that quietly infiltrated the minds of the four in silver.
Ever since he had mastered the Super-tier Psychic Magic True Dreamscape, his control over souls and memory alteration had grown increasingly proficient. It wouldn't hurt to test it on these few people.
He attempted to peer into their memories—not only to determine whether the silver-jacketed man was good or evil, but also to learn their origins and keep them under surveillance. Such powerful individuals, once they erupted into violence, would cause immense destruction. He had to be cautious.
Moments later, under the inducement of the fluctuations Lu Jun released, the spiritual souls of the four underwent bizarre changes. In the shadows of their minds, demonic silhouettes appeared.
Secondary personalities split off, each one baring a ferocious, sinister grin. Working both internally and externally, they excavated the hosts' memories and transmitted them to Lu Jun.
Seeing this, he let out a sigh of relief. None of the four possessed Super-tier Psychic Magic—otherwise, they would certainly have noticed something wrong.
Soon after, Lu Jun gradually learned the identities of the four: the silver-jacketed man, the silk-clad man in colorful robes, the short man, and the pot-bellied middle-aged man with gold teeth. His expression turned shocked as he muttered, "So it's them."
The Silver Ornament Society's leader Bashalio, along with three high-ranking members of the Scoundrel Society—ranked from First to Third Boss—Red Ornament Society's leader, the man in colorful silk; Black Ornament Society's leader, Taike; and Gold Ornament Society's leader, Gold Tooth!
It could be said that all of Su Lu's under-the-table forces had been dispatched.
Lu Jun had some impression of them. Bashalio was an Ice Element Super-level mage with extremely high cultivation. He had once slaughtered his way through a battle, nearly preventing Mo Fan and Mu Ningxue from escaping alive. He also had a unique and perverted taste, extremely lustful, specializing in the torture and murder of women.
Of course, at that time, Mo Fan had only just reached peak High-Tier and had not yet broken into Super-tier, while Mu Ningxue had only just advanced to Super-tier Ice Magic.
That incident would occur roughly one year later in the original timeline.
When Su Lu led the entire Asian Magic Association to make a move against the slumbering Black Dragon Emperor in the Tyrant Mountains of Italy and enslaved it, Silver Ornament Society's leader Bashalio had made outstanding contributions.
It was Bashalio who was responsible for collecting Titan Hearts and the hearts of human children from various countries, his hands were soaked in blood.
However, his end wasn't much better. After Mo Fan caught him red-handed and reported him, Su Lu coldly abandoned him, and he met a miserable death on the spot.
As for the other three, Lu Jun also happened to know a thing or two. They were figures who appeared two to three years later in the original timeline during the incident where Su Lu strangled Feng Zhoulong's fusion magic research.
Unfortunately for them, by that time Mo Fan had already reached full magical maturity—almost all elements at Super-tier , plus Heavenly-Seed-level cultivation methods. He even had two main elements at second-tier mastery and commanded fusion magic, directly killing the three of them in seconds, dying even more miserably than lowly lackeys.
As for the current Lu Jun, setting aside both sides' demon transformations and emperor-level taboo trump cards like the Ancient King's armor and robe, at most he could only fight Mo Fan to a draw.
"Hehehe, none of you are good people. What exactly are you plotting by coming to Jiuzhou?"
Lu Jun sneered repeatedly, his expression playful. To be honest, forget these few—he wasn't even afraid of Su Lu himself.
The Black Dragon Emperor incident and the Feng Zhoulong affair were indeed disgusting. The former had nothing to do with him, and the latter would most likely not happen again in this lifetime.
But if they dared provoke him, he wouldn't mind erasing Su Lu altogether.
"Since that's the case, let's add a little more spice."
The moment killing intent rose in Lu Jun's heart, he immediately detonated the two strands of Psychic Element sharpness that remained within the eyeballs of the silver-jacketed man, Bashalio.
On the other side, Bashalio rubbed his damaged eyes and roared madly, "Damn it! It was definitely him…"
He recalled Lu Jun's appearance, vengeance surging in his heart. Beside him, the pot-bellied man with gold teeth frowned and said, "Bashalio, don't forget our mission. Be careful of that lord's punishment."
"Don't worry, I won't ruin the big plan." Bashalio said with a twisted expression. "I just want to find that man after the mission ends, kill him, take his female companions, and make him watch with his own eyes as his girlfriend is humiliated to death."
Yet before long, he suddenly realized in shock that the appearances and figures of Lu Jun and the other two in his memory were gradually becoming blurred.
When Bashalio looked again toward where Lu Jun and the others had been, the space was already filled by other crowded travelers. Scanning the surroundings once more, his spiritual sense found no trace of them at all—nothing but emptiness.
"This… how is this possible? No…!"
Bashalio tried desperately to recall his memories, but there was no longer any trace. He had forgotten many things. Cold sweat poured down as he couldn't help but suspect that he had encountered some kind of rule-defying, bizarre phenomenon.
Just as he was about to question the other three companions, a sudden, intense stabbing pain assaulted his eyeballs.
Bang! Bang!
Two sounds of flesh tearing rang out. Bashalio let out a scream of agony that echoed throughout the airport as he collapsed to the ground. His eyes had already gone numb, he could no longer feel their existence, yet the pain did not stop. Instead, it drilled relentlessly deeper into his brain.
