Chapter 1904: Chapter 1877: The News Brought by Avril

"That shouldn’t be possible."

Angel shook her head and said, "Even though our visit to Eagle Country was leaked, no one knows our true purpose here, and certainly no one knows we would be at the church today. If someone really did leak our whereabouts, then there’s only one explanation: there’s a traitor among us..."

"That’s impossible."

Before Angel could finish speaking, Mandala couldn’t wait and interrupted, "Only Starving Ghost knows we’re here at the church today, and they wouldn’t betray my brother."

"I know they wouldn’t betray your brother, but if it’s not them, then there’s only one explanation: there’s an unseen hand pushing all this from the shadows, and this mysterious hand is likely the same person who spread news about Tianxing going to Japan."

Listening to Angel’s words, Lu Tianxing didn’t say anything, but furrowed his brow slightly, deep in thought.

Avril appearing here is definitely not a coincidence; the world doesn’t work out so conveniently. Yet, Avril is here, even signaling him with her eyes, clearly wanting to convey something to him.

As for whether Angel’s words are correct, only after meeting Avril will he truly understand what’s happening.

"Angel, Manman, wait for me here for a moment. I’ll go find Avril and ask her about the situation and why she’s here," Lu Tianxing said, raising his head.

"Brother, do you really want to find this woman? What if she’s teamed up with others to trap you?" Mandala said, looking at Lu Tianxing.

Upon hearing this, Lu Tianxing smiled faintly and said, "Manman, don’t worry about me. If I dare to seek her out, I have a way to leave unscathed. Besides, Avril wouldn’t dare turn against me now; it wouldn’t benefit her at all."

"Wait for me here; I’ll be back soon."

With that, Lu Tianxing said no more and walked in the direction Avril had left.

Meanwhile, Angel and Mandala took out their phones, narcissistically snapping photos, like ordinary tourists.

Lu Tianxing walked quickly, soon catching sight of Avril walking in front. However, Avril didn’t pause and continued forward until she disappeared into a hidden corner.

Lu Tianxing followed closely, and upon turning the corner, immediately saw Avril standing nearby, as if she was specifically waiting for him.

"Lu Tianxing, what exactly are you trying to do? Do you know what you’re facing by appearing in Eagle Country?"

Avril’s tone was heavy as she saw Lu Tianxing approaching, "Do you think you’re dying fast enough? Do you know how many forces are watching you? Do you realize the dangers you face in Eagle Country?"

Lu Tianxing ignored Avril’s words, taking out a cigarette and lighting it, blowing out a smoke ring. He looked at Avril with a faint smile and said, "Are you worried about me?"

"I just don’t want to die with you if you die."

Avril glared at Lu Tianxing, her voice icy, "There are no secrets in this world. You think you’re being mysterious, but ever since you stepped into Japan, countless eyes have been watching your every move. Since your arrival in Eagle Country, various forces have started converging here, targeting you, intending to eliminate you. Do you understand?"

Lu Tianxing’s face turned somber upon hearing Avril’s warning, realizing that his presence in Eagle Country attracted attention from many forces, but hadn’t expected them to appear in Eagle Country, ready to move against him.

"What’s going on? Tell me, what exactly happened?" Lu Tianxing said seriously, taking a deep breath and looking at Avril.

"Even I don’t know all the details."

Avril gave Lu Tianxing a deep look and said, "After you wiped out the Shankou Family, rumors spread worldwide saying you are rising to prominence, intending to temper yourself against powerful figures from various forces. Given time, you’ll hunt down and destroy all opposing forces, leaving none alive. In Tokyo, you killed Kawakami Renichi, vanquishing a late-stage Mythical expert as a middle-stage Mythical, inspiring awe among many. Numerous forces now see you as a thorn in their side, wishing to eliminate you quickly."

"Had you left Japan after handling the Shankou Family, returning to China, you might have remained safe. But appearing in Eagle Country granted these forces the perfect opportunity to act. Unless they can’t find you, if they do, they’ll certainly come in full force, intending to bury you here, because your survival means their future demise."

"And the most crucial point is, it’s now widely rumored that you possess the Four Symbols Ring."

Lu Tianxing’s face turned dark and unpleasant at Avril’s words. It’s undoubtedly someone intentionally orchestrating this, aiming to use others to kill him and leave him no avenue for escape.

"Are you here today to kill me as well?"

"Do you think I’d kill you now?"

Avril looked at Lu Tianxing, calmly saying, "I just don’t want to die here, dragging us both down. Judge, I understand your strength is formidable, but this time, you’re not facing a single mountain but countless ones. You can move one mountain, but do you think you can move the others? Staying here is a dead end for you, understand?"

Lu Tianxing remained silent before finally saying, "Avril, I need your help."

"Help you?"

Avril snorted coldly, "You’re delusional. Helping you means the Church won’t spare me. I’ve informed you enough; make your own choice! Words exhausted, farewell."

With that, Avril didn’t give Lu Tianxing a chance to speak further and turned away to leave.

Lu Tianxing stood there motionless, just watching Avril’s back in silence.
