"Interesting. There will indeed be guests tonight..."
Two people slowly came out of the darkness. One of them, dressed in white, was a man in his twenties. He had a faint smile on his face and held an iron-bone fan in his hand. The person who spoke was him.
The other person was around 10 feet tall. His body was even larger than King Shen's. It was as though he was a small moving hill. The earlier frightening strength had been unleashed by him.
Xiao Chen's heart sank. These two people might be the Lv 5 martial artists of the Bloodmoon Hall. Their strength was not weaker than his. The man in white gently waved his folding fan and smiled and said, "Forget it. Take good care of our guests."
As his voice fell, countless bolts flew from all directions. The lethality of these bolts was very strong, and they were poisonous. Xiao Chen jumped up and used the Star-shifting Substitution. Even the raindrops in the air were shot back together.
"No, it's just that the Lord asked me to ask for him."The voice still echoed in the cold and bloody hall. After keeping the Full Moon Blade, Chu Qi turned to walk to the stone door behind the hall. After she pressed the mechanism, a passage slowly opened on the floor, and a rotten smell immediately came to her nose.Stone steps were leading down. The light was dim inside, and only a few flickering torches hung on the wall. Chu Qi stepped in and the clicking of shoes echoed slowly. The dungeon was very damp, with the sound of dripping water and the squeaking of mice.The air was filled with a dark and moist rotting smell. There were about a dozen rooms in the dungeon on the first floor, each of which was filled with all sorts of torture tools. There was still half of an arm or a corpse hanging from these instruments. The corpses had long rotted, and the corners were filled with skeletons. The rotten flesh had long been gnawed clean by the rats.
When the seven women in midair saw that the group was about to leave with Ren Yuntian, the leading woman bellowed. The seven of them once again propped up another blood-red killing formation to envelop the group. Xiao Chen's expression turned cold. "You're overestimating yourself! Since that's the case, I'll capture you all alive tonight and make you spill out everything!"At the end of his words, the Dragon's Wrath was instantly activated. With a loud boom, the dragon shadow dispersed the Blood Killing Formation of Seven-Night Queens. Xiao Chen then looked at Yang Qing and the others and said, "You go first. I'll hold them back!"Yang Qing and the others did not say much. They immediately took the unkempt man and went to the distance with Chu Qi. Seeing this, the Seven-Night Queens immediately went to chase after them. Xiao Chen shouted coldly, "Stay here!" Then he stretched out his hand and used the supernatural power of the Nirvana Realm. A huge black ha
"That's him! That's him!"With his eyes lividly furious, Yang Qing looked nothing like the man he usually was. He clenched his fists so tightly that they cracked as he struggled to keep his boiling emotions and his reddened face in control. But with his injury now aggravated by the spike in his emotion, he choked and coughed up a mouthful of blood."Hold on, Brother Yang!" A man quickly helped him up while two others kept a close watch on their surroundings.At the same time, Xiao Chen and Chu Qi maintained vigilance. His fingers gripped taut the hilt of his Blood Lotus Demon Blade as he scanned everywhere for any signs of their enemy, for he could not sense where was he nor where could he be coming from."That's him! That MUST BE him!" Yang Qing howled, his eyes now flushed red and veins throbbed at his temples with raging madness. The enemy's voice filled him with so much hate that Yang Qing looked as if he wanted to feast on his
Xiao Chen conjured a ball of light that illuminated their surroundings. In the dark, all they could see was the wet, moss-slicked walls. "Let's go," he said, already expecting what laid ahead.After an hour of plowing through the half-submerged tunnels, they finally saw light. The water began to deepen and ordinary people would have needed boats to leave the tunnel. But being mages—practitioners of arcane magic—they effortlessly leaped out of water and glided over the surface of the river to reach ground.With the vastness of Black-horn City, the sprawl of its outskirts were equally as large. They traveled on foot back to the outer peripheries of the city to hear the people whispering rumors about."Have you heard? Something big happened last night at the Bloodied Moon District. More than a thousand of Black Horn men were killed, including the members of two of its Halls... That's terrifying...""Is what you're saying true? But who
"I know what to do. Why are you so anxious?!"The brusque remark made many heads turn this way and the atmosphere turned suddenly palpably still. Whispering from over his shoulder, Yang Qing cautioned him. “Urm… Brother Xiao…”Xiao Chen said nothing. He waved a hand as if dispelling an imaginary smog of unease and leaned back into his chair. The servant came back just moments later and spoke softly into Lord Black Sand’s ear, saying, “It’s confirmed, my Lord. It can be done.”The commander of the Black Sands did not take his feet off the table. Still leaning heavily into his chair, he waved the servant away and narrowed his eyes at Xiao Chen, nonchalantly saying, “All right then. Tell me, where are these people now?”“With the Black Horns.”Despite his muffled tone, Xiao Chen’s voice rang like a tower bell on the words “Black Horns” in the silence of the hall that the same awkward silence pervaded the entire length and
The creases on the forehead of the elderly man in green only grew deeper as he sniffed at the contents in the jade vial. Then his expression shifted, and so did the gorgeous young lady in short skirt and Lord Black Sand when they realized it. Everyone in the hall peered curiously, their faces changing too as buzzing and murmurs began running through the hall.Beset with doubt and disbelief, the teal-robed elder tipped over the vial and a round little pill – glowing palely with a gloss of opal-white with hardly any flaws – rolled out and fell on his palm and a rich, aromatic smell of herbs filled the entire chamber, its scent soothing and invigorating.More furtive whispers began buzzing all around. Most might know little to nothing about concocting pills and elixirs, but it was apparent even to a layman that Xiao Chen's handiwork had better quality than the teal-robed elder's.The teal-robed elder could hardly suppress his indignation anymore a
"Nimbus ...... Nimbus obeys."After a long time, condensed smoke only a little peaceful down, when the night has come, the house candle flame flickering, vaguely illuminated her still trembling legs.Black Sand King Samson laughed: "That's good, I'd like to see, that kid is what exactly is the God, even more than the old man is still unseen ...... "Said the last, to the condensation of the two snow-white legs to look at the smoke, shook his head:" You can not do this. "Ning Yan froze, "Sh...... what?"The Black Sand King laughed morosely and coldly, "That boy is also followed by a beauty, but I see that he seems to be able to remain unmoved by it, this skirt of yours, it needs to be shorter again, dress up nicely tonight and go charm that boy."Ning Yan subconsciously looked down, and then short on ...... face a red, softly said, "Yes ...... Ning Yan obeyed orders."The Black Sand King laughed coldly, "really can't, go to find Ouyangzi to ask for
A moment later, Xiao Chuan took the mask off, and seeing her expression grow odd, he softly said, "Miss Ning Yan?"Only then did Ning Yan react and fixed her mind, no longer daring to be as bold as before, and even this time, even Xiao Chen's eyes, she didn't dare to look at them squarely, because that pair of eyes, as if they were the coldest thing in the world."What's wrong with you?" Xiao Chuan slowly walked over and handed the mask back to her, the moment Ning Yan received the mask, her body gently trembled and she couldn't help but take two steps back, looking at him at this moment, she was actually a little scared.Xiao Dust smiled gently, "Alright, it's alright, I'm going to take a bath, go and boil a bucket of hot water for me."Ning Yan was stunned, it seemed that along with this gentle smile of Xiao Chen, the boundless and endless feeling of coldness just now had suddenly disappeared again, and what followed was a sense of security, a warmth that d
