Otherworldly Affairs Office-Chapter 753: Shocking Secret of the Magic Realm (Part 2) (Subscription Requested)

As Pei Yan's words fell, everyone in the room fell silent. After a moment, Gu Shenghui sighed and said, "Yes, not to mention the Dark Council, even the Immortal Palace openly fights to the death with the Underworld now, but secretly there are countless connections. Ah, these intricate entanglements among the old powers have been rooted for thousands of years, making it extremely complex!"

"But, but even if the Dark Council still has connections with the original source of the Magic Realm, Vlad is clearly a man!" Wang Wenze, standing next to them, said in disbelief.

"Do you remember Lei Youting?" Pei Yan suddenly raised his head and asked.

"I remember!" Mei Simiao replied. He was the one who handled the follow-up work of the Jiayuan District case back then. Thinking of that little girl, he couldn't help but sigh: "After the Song Mingyuan case, she awakened her superpowers, but she was too young to qualify for the Investigation Hall. Wenlin and I sealed her memory and abilities, letting her live an ordinary life at home. Sadly, she still couldn't escape Little Vlad's clutches. Poor girl, she was inexplicably drawn into this event, ruining her family, ultimately disappearing."

"It was her. When I heard of that case, I was surprised. What was Little Vlad after, targeting a little girl? Only now do I understand. Severely injured and unable to maintain his original form, he chose to invade Lei Youting's body, using her body for regeneration. The present Moira is actually the former Lei Youting, only she changed her appearance to blend in with those from the Magic Realm."

Pei Yan pondered, "According to Xila, after the ancient invasion event, the four planes shifted the blame onto the defunct organizations at the time. Unlike the direct betrayal with the Underworld, the Dark Council, although outwardly becoming an underground organization in conflict with the three major churches, secretly, only the highest levels of the Council understand their connection with the original source of the Magic Realm. I've confirmed from Lin Junzhao that the source of the Magic Realm is a fusion of light and darkness, with the Dark Council being the inheritors of its dark powers. Moira, that is Little Vlad, was strongly recommended by his father, Vlad I, as the Child of Darkness in the Magic Realm, which is why she couldn't help but plot against me upon seeing me."

After listening to Pei Yan's account, Gu Shenghui was silently speechless for a long time before muttering, "Is this possible? If what you're saying is true, doesn't the original source know about the Dark Council's current actions? It doesn't make sense!"

"That's what perplexes me. If all this is true, there are several possibilities: One, the original source of the Magic Realm has lost control over the Dark Council; at the very least, the other side secretly defies its orders with mutual cunning. Two, the original source is aware of what the Dark Council is doing but is willfully indulgent for its own purposes, preparing to use them as a tool. Third..."

At the third point, Pei Yan didn't continue, and cold sweat kept dripping from his forehead. Next to him, Gu Shenghui added, "Third, the Magic Realm has fully sided with the Bloodfiend!"

"Exactly!" Thinking of this possibility, Pei Yan slumped into the corridor chair, exhausted, "It's the chaotic machinations of the Magic Realm's original source, akin to Candle Dragon, balancing between two camps to become the ultimate victor. The Hell Plane must have discovered something, thus breaking so completely with them."

"What should we do?" The barrage of negative news left Wang Wenze somewhat despondent, sitting beside Pei Yan in confusion.

"Hmph, I don't care what dirty dealings the Magic Realm has behind closed doors, but if Moira is Little Vlad, it means the bastard has been plotting against us from the start! Saying the Blood Curse is unbreakable, claiming he can't control the Vlad Clan, but look at the results!" Pei Yan said angrily, throwing a punch at the corridor column, creating a dull thud.

"Hehehe, now Little Vlad has become Moira, the Child of Origin in the Magic Plane. Any action against him would be a challenge to the whole Magic Realm, hehehe!" Gu Shenghui's face was filled with a sinister chill as he sneered, "Little Vlad must have become the Child of Origin after the Lei Youting incident. The Magic Realm's source knowingly chose him as the Child of Origin despite his actions — clearly stating their stance, they've never considered the opinions of my Investigation Hall. Very well, really well! As for the illusions, the Magic Realm keeps scheming against us. If we don't retaliate, aren't we just easy targets made out to be fools? Fine, let's teach him a lesson about how those who play with fire will perish by it."

"Can we retaliate? After all, Moira now bears the mantle of Child of Origin. Without concrete evidence, won't we be accused if we act hastily?" Seeing Gu Shenghui's demeanor, his companion, knowing he had killing intent, worriedly asked.

In response, Gu Shenghui and Mei Simiao exchanged a mysterious smile, "No worries. We have a secret weapon to deal with him that will absolutely ruin him!"

"Secret weapon? What is it?" Having his own concerns about this matter, Pei Yan's eyes lit up with excitement when he heard Gu Shenghui's words,

Gu Shenghui didn't explain in front of everyone, but whispered a few words in Pei Yan's ear. Upon hearing them, Pei Yan was delighted and exclaimed, "He's still alive?"

"Alive!" Gu Shenghui nodded, smiling.

Receiving the confirmed news, Pei Yan stood and paced back and forth. After pondering for a moment, he looked towards Gu Shenghui and pressed on, "Will this work?"

"We need to plan carefully. Once things are settled, I will send for someone to return from the Keystone Plane. Even if things don't work out, you can use Moira's past attempts against you as a pretext. If things escalate, the Investigation Hall will step in," said Gu Shenghui, patting Pei Yan's shoulder in encouragement, "Don't feel pressured, go ahead. I can assure you that the Investigation Hall, or our entire Superpower World, is no longer a loose organization. Facing the upcoming formidable foes, Investigation Halls across nations have put aside grudges, and a powerful Superpower Alliance is being built. With us as support, it is time to confront these arrogant bastards head-on."

"Hoo! With your assurance, I feel much more confident. Let's have a good conversation with Miss Xila, after all, I really like that big gift," Pei Yan said with relief.

Five minutes later, Xila watched as the group returned to the living room with solemn expressions. Unable to discern the outcome from their faces, she felt a pang of anxiety. If they were too intimidated by the Magic Realm's strength and chose to retreat, wouldn't her father's plan fall through? Would she really need to rely on the Daoist Realm source's power as a last resort to influence them?
