Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!
The dark assassins moved with lightning speed, their bodies powerful and well-trained, wielding magical weapons of various forms. They shot upward like a sudden whirlwind—
Charging toward the trench-coat girl at the end of their line of sight!
"Hm?"
"What the hell?!"
Wanda's pupils shrank sharply.
In her haste, she raised her hand and released a surge of scarlet energy, attempting to repel the incoming dark assassin.
Clang!
The scarlet energy collided violently with the spiral-shuriken-shaped magical weapon.
A deafening, heart-piercing noise exploded across the air.
A shockwave rippled outward.
It actually managed to momentarily halt Cui's ambush.
"A senior sorcerer?"
Ms. Agness looked mildly surprised.
"Gan!"
"Wen!"
"Cui!"
"Finish it quickly!"
Dark-Qi Wizard Dao Long gripped his curved staff tightly and let out a hoarse, guttural roar urging them on.
As for the Demon Lord?
He wasn't afraid in the slightest!
Stone-petrifying magic, talisman-removal spells, even the incantation used by the Celestial Warriors to seal the Flame Demon—he knew them all by heart!
He was practically a walking encyclopedia of Jackie Chan Adventures lore.
In the original story—
The Demon Lord's physical body had once collapsed, leaving him trapped in a barren demon hell as a disembodied soul, completely helpless.
Until Dao Long acted.
He reforged a golden body for him!
That alone proved the deep foundation and terrifying power of this Dark-Qi Wizard.
He had lived for centuries. Even Uncle's master, the Grand Sorcerer Fang, had once lost to Dao Long!
Without question, Dao Long possessed power on the level of a true grand sorcerer.
Even if he often lost to Uncle…
That was just protagonist-halo nonsense.
"Searching high and low…"
"And it falls right into my lap."
Shen Du narrowed his eyes, instantly locking onto the short Dark-Qi Wizard—the iconic villain of the series.
Dao Long!
Based on his deductions, Dao Long absolutely knew the spell to remove the restraints placed by divine relics!
Without the suppression of divine relics, the ancient demons' power would skyrocket—possibly surpassing high-rank demon level and stepping into the extreme tier!
Maybe even becoming kings!
Of course…
The title "Demon King" meant nothing to ancient demons.
Compared to that, Shen Du was far more interested in becoming Multiversal Unique.
And the Dark Council meeting wasn't far away.
The primary topic of this council: how to kill the Demon Lord.
He had to attend!
He could even offer some suggestions.
"Hah?"
"Who's attacking my little sister-in-law?!"
A towering demon with pale-blue skin and golden battle armor suddenly let out a soul-splitting roar.
He immediately noticed the dark assassins closing in.
Then he summoned lightning-qi, scorching sparks crackling across his body. Gripping a lightning spear, he hurled it with all his might!
Whoosh! Whoosh! Whoosh!!
Like an arrow released from a divine bow.
The lightning spear broke the sound barrier, its tip gleaming with razor-sharp metallic light as it tore toward the dark assassins—Gan, Wen, and Cui!
"That's Fourth Sister-in-law?!"
"I've been so rude!"
"I didn't even realize Fourth Sister-in-law was here."
Shame flashed across the beastlike stone-lion face of Earth Kui—a simple-minded brute with bulging muscles.
Crash!!
He suddenly raised both hands, manipulating the earth beneath them. A towering cliff surged straight upward, blocking Gan, Wen, and Cui's path!
Crack!
Crack!
The lightning spear came crashing down like divine judgment.
Even though Wen swung his giant hammer, blue glowing tattoos erupting with dazzling power—granting him terrifying strength—he still couldn't withstand the lightning spear!
His form exploded on the spot.
His soul instantly banished back into the pocket dimension.
However, dark assassins possessed the same traits as shadow-spirit troops—they couldn't truly die, only be sealed!
"Cui!"
Dao Long barked.
Dark Assassin Cui manifested once again—
And fearlessly charged straight at Wanda!
Then the Dark-Qi Wizard's eyes swept across the deck, searching through the gathered mutant elites. When he spotted the Monkey King, he swung his curved staff—
Transforming him into a dark assassin!
"Shan!"
"Catch that rebellious girl!"
…
The young Eastern man with a classic gold-thread rat-tail suddenly saw his skin shift into a brownish tone, pointed ears sprouting, pupils turning pitch-black and round—filled with confused frustration.
Caught off guard, the Monkey King didn't know how to counter the transformation. The Fighting-Buddha had never taught him such things!
Screech!
The Monkey King morphed into a soaring eagle, following the Dark-Qi Wizard's command and diving toward the Scarlet Witch!
His beak curved like a hook, extremely durable—
It looked like it could pierce steel!
"You still dare stay here?!"
Dao Long's grin turned cruel. He swung his staff once more, unleashing waves of foul, corrupting energy—attempting to transform every mutant elite into his slaves!
If he succeeded—
The dark assassins would grow to an unimaginable number!
After all, anyone qualified to reside in Cruise City was a high-level talent—mutants with rare gifts, most at Gamma level or above.
The whole reason Dao Long came to Genosha…
Was to expand his dark army.
To gain the power to stand against hellish monsters—and even defy the Demon Lord.
"The talismans will all be mine!"
The Dark-Qi Wizard's hoarse voice echoed, his face twisted with cruelty.
His magic was nearly unstoppable!
Even mutant elites couldn't resist it!
Swoosh! Swoosh! Swoosh!
The foul energy wrapped around several finely dressed mutant elites.
Changing them at the genetic level.
Moments later, the unlucky ones transformed into dark assassins one after another!
By the time everyone reacted, it was too late!
A hundred mutant elites fell under the Dark-Qi Wizard's control—becoming his unwavering servants.
Crackle!
A surge of brilliant lightning spread outward—
Forming a net!
It actually blocked the corrupting energy!
"Go!"
"Hurry, get out of here!"
The Weather Witch raised her arms, summoning wind and rain to buy precious seconds for the Talos couple.
Everyone scrambled to escape!
"Shall I take care of the stragglers for you?"
"…Mr. Huang?"
Agness shot a sideways glance, as if ready to unleash a deadly magical blast at the Weather Witch at any moment.
But then—
Cruise City suddenly shook violently!
As if struck by the most terrifying earthquake in history!
"This—"
"It's lifting off?!"
Someone shouted in disbelief.
The colossal cruise ship—meant for international voyages, weighing tens of thousands of tons—rose straight into the air!
Countless rocks and wooden structures cracked, collapsing as landslides cascaded down the mountainside.
The scene was breathtaking—overwhelming in its visual power.
Even Shen Du couldn't help admiring it.
Only Big Brother Zhou Lan could compare to something like this!
"Gravity control?"
"Comparable to Zhou Lan!"
The two demons widened their eyes.
At last, they understood the terrifying extent of Magneto's power.
"Damn!"
"You dare slaughter my people?!"
Magneto growled, voice trembling with fury.
His heart was bleeding.
The mutant elites he had recruited so painstakingly—Genosha's future pillars, many at Alpha level—had all fallen under the Dark-Qi Wizard's command!
How could Magneto not rage?!
Whether Dao Long or Agness—both would pay in blood!
Buzz!!
Countless metal particles, wrapped in electricity, surged in from all directions like meteor showers. They formed a magnetic storm coil, trapping the two evil sorcerers within.
Sparks danced violently, heat so intense it curled hair and burned brows.
But the pair showed no fear.
Because Magneto didn't understand the simplest, most ancient truth:
"You must defeat magic with magic."
"Magneto,"Shen Du advised lightly.
"Lord Demon,"Magneto bowed his head, desperate to vent his rage and destroy the two sorcerers.
"Unfortunately,""That request is outside our agreement."
Shen Du waved his hand.
Invisible telekinetic force flowed out, gently wrapping the rebellious girl in the blood-red coat—lifting her off the ground, bringing her toward him.
"Gan!"
"Wen!"
"Cui!"
"Shan!"
"And all of my assassins!"
"Capture that girl!"
Swoosh—
A cloud of magic smoke billowed up.
Dao Long and Agness teleported to safety.
They appeared atop a mountain peak, roaring in fury—
Ready to battle the Demon Lord!
In Jackie Chan Adventures, the Dark-Qi Wizard had demonstrated such boldness before—transforming the Dark Hand Four into the ultimate Gray Samurai.
Full armor, lightning effects, dramatic flair!
But right now…
There was no need.
With the Monkey King and the mutant elites, their mission could still succeed.
"Good thing we're members of the Morningstar Hermits."
"Otherwise, even I'd be scared."
Agness feigned fear.
"Cut the act, Agatha."
"And remember—let me borrow the Darkhold afterward."
Dao Long added his price.
"That depends on whether you can catch that girl."
Agness suddenly turned serious.
The Darkhold—
The immortal parchment—
Containing countless dangerous, corrupted spells.
A true encyclopedia of dark magic.
As for the Morningstar Hermits—
They were an ancient organization with a long, far-reaching history.
Born from spiritual-vein nodes that birthed small pocket realms.
They had interfered in the magical world many times.
