Wu Master was taken aback, no wonder he felt that Xia Xin’s aura just now was sowhat similar to the Abbot’s.
So it’s because of this connection?
While Xia Xin and others were dealing with Qin Sai, Jiangli and Fu Shiyan were still in the cave.
Seeing Xun Tianhai suddenly rush out, Jiangli was about to make a move when Pei Jiu, who followed behind, engaged Xun Tianhai with the Mage Sword.
This platform could accommodate two people.
However, with three people, it beca cramped.
Especially with Xun Tianhai and Pei Jiu still entangled in a fight.
The area beca even smaller.
The two were almost pressed against the edge of the platform and the mountain wall.
Pei Jiu’s talent was not as good as Xun Tianhai’s, and having been injured earlier due to forcibly taking the Soul Capturing Nail, he was even less of a match for Xun Tianhai now.
He was constantly at a disadvantage, struggling to defend himself.
Yet, he didn’t forget to tell Jiangli, "Abbot, quickly stop the Puppet Formation, I’ll hold him!"
On hearing this, Jiangli quickly focused all her attention on the Puppet Formation.
She sped up and drew a formation on the existing Puppet Formation as an overlay.
At this mont, Xun Tianhai seed to receive so kind of instruction and erupted once more, swinging his long blade rcilessly at Pei Jiu’s head.
Pei Jiu raised the Mage Sword to barely block the long blade.
In the next second, Xun Tianhai lifted his foot, kicking Pei Jiu in the abdon, sending him flying off the platform.
Pei Jiu’s body fell uncontrollably backward.
Xun Tianhai was relentless, throwing the long blade in his hand, which pierced through Pei Jiu’s heart.
Pei Jiu’s body stiffened, rapidly falling towards the cliff below the platform.
Just as Jiangli finished the last stroke, she glimpsed Pei Jiu’s figure in the corner of her eye, her brow twitched, and she swiftly raised her hand, letting a cluster of red threads fly out, wrapping around Pei Jiu’s body with a swish.
At this ti, Xun Tianhai turned his head, wanting to strike at Jiangli.
Jiangli slapped her palm on the ground formation.
Xun Tianhai’s movents imdiately ceased, like a machine suddenly without power, maintaining the posture of extending his hand, standing there motionless.
Seeing this, Jiangli pulled Pei Jiu’s body up, grabbed Xun Tianhai’s hand, and tapping the ground with her toes, she leaped up with both Pei Jiu and Xun Tianhai.
At the sa ti, ng Hongyao and others also halted their actions.
Fu Shiyan instantly rushed to the edge of the cliff.
Seeing Jiangli co up, he cooperated seamlessly, receiving Pei Jiu and pulling Jiangli up as well.
The two quickly brought Pei Jiu and Xun Tianhai up.
Xun Tianhai had already passed out by then.
Pei Jiu had a long blade sticking in his heart, and he was continuously coughing up blood.
Jiangli glanced at the precise spot where the long blade had entered.
Precisely and unerringly, it pierced Pei Jiu’s heart.
Jiangli’s expression darkened, she looked at Pei Jiu sowhat ambiguously.
"You didn’t have to do this, he couldn’t have hard ."
Pei Jiu gave a bitter smile, speaking while coughing blood, "I was dood from the start, this is just as well, just as well..."
Jiangli furrowed her brow.
Pei Jiu gasped desperately for breath, "I was biased against the Abbot before, it was who did the wrong things, and I caused all of this. Having such an end is what I deserve... Abbot, I, I have one last request..."
Jiangli softly asked, "What?"
Pei Jiu glanced at the unconscious Xun Tianhai beside him, "Don’t, don’t tell him... how I died... just, just say I was killed by a ghost..."
He had overestimated himself, thinking he could contend with Xun Tianhai.
Such an end was sothing he had contemplated before.
It was what he deserved.
If it weren’t for him, Xun Tianhai and the others wouldn’t have been manipulated.
Things wouldn’t have escalated to this point.
He didn’t want his death to cast a shadow over Xun Tianhai.
