Bubbles surged up in the pool, and Su Xiao stared intently at that spot, instinctively taking two steps back.
Now, the entire main hall was enveloped in a barrier, becoming a cage. Su Xiao glanced around and realised that escaping wouldn't be easy, especially with whatever was in the pool not giving him any ti to do so.
With a splash, the pale green pool water overflowed and spread to Su Xiao's feet. He faintly saw sothing floating beneath the pool.
His Counterattack Shield appeared by Su Xiao's side, and the energy of the Qingsteel Shadow enveloped his Dragon Slayer Flash. The situation was clear now. In this room turned into a cage. He and the creature in the pool were the only ones left who could survive.
Gradually, long dark green hair floated up to the surface, and imdiately after, a stunning woman erged from the water.
Through the pale green pool water, one could see that this woman was naked, her full body covered in long, dark green hair flowing with the rippling water.
The woman glanced at Su Xiao and smiled at him, unbothered by her alluring curves being exposed to his gaze.
"Do you like what you see?"
The woman gave Su Xiao a seductive look and sat on the pool's edge with her legs crossed, only her private parts concealed by her thighs.
A red light flickered in Su Xiao's eyes, and he lifted one foot, walking towards the woman.
"You must be tired from your journey. Co closer, and I'll make you experience the utmost pleasure."
As the woman called out, Su Xiao approached her slowly, the red light in his eyes becoming more pronounced.
When Su Xiao reached the woman, she looked at the knife in his hand.
"Put it down. It's quite inconvenient, and you might end up hurting . Can you bear to harm a woman about to be beneath you?"
As she spoke, the woman's nails elongated.
Swish!
The long knife sliced through, cutting the woman's throat almost in half. The red light in Su Xiao's eyes quickly faded, and he jumped back. Thanks to the effect of his "Mind Blade," he was not chard by the woman.
"Wouldn't it be better to be quietly devoured by ? Why struggle? Your actions will only make your death more painful."
The woman smiled, and the wound on her neck quickly healed, with no sign of blood.
Although there was no blood from the woman's wound, the Qingsteel Shadow energy infiltrated her body, causing the smile on her face to gradually fade.
"Using energy to corrode , is that your choice, mortal?"
As the Qingsteel Shadow energy penetrated the woman's body, her appearance changed. Her fair skin turned black, and her entire body started to swell.
In an instant, the woman's initially frail body expanded to the extre, turning into a four-ter-wide atball.
From the mont this woman appeared, Su Xiao only felt malice, a thick and malicious malice.
The atball rolled and plopped into the pool, gradually sinking to the bottom.
Su Xiao stood by the pool, noticing that the pale green pool water inside was decreasing. Realising this, he imdiately threw an alchemical bomb into the pool.
He stepped back and ignited the alchemical bomb.
Boom!
The pale green pool water splashed, and the pool's edge cracked. The water inside the pool began to burn.
As it burned, the pool water rapidly decreased, and in no ti, the flas were extinguished, revealing the bottom of the pool.
An unknown creature stood at the bottom of the pool. The beast had no muscles or skin; it was just a skeleton. If one looked closely, one would see that although the creature had no powers or skin, it had internal organs within its skeleton. Its skull contained eyeballs and a brain, among other body tissues. The creature's skeleton was wrapped in a thin mbrane as if the flesh had been peeled away while it was still alive.
As for where the creature's flesh had gone, the answer lay in its weapon. The creature held a peculiar weapon, which seed to be a leg bone of so kind of animal, wrapped in its fresh, red at.
This unique weapon resembled holding the leg of a skinned beast in one's hand.
Taking advantage of the fact that the creature remained motionless at the bottom of the pool, Su Xiao imdiately used the Eye of the Apostle to investigate the creature's information.

...
Shu Xiao's mouth twitched after seeing the information about the Orphan of Resentnt.
"Oh, damn."
Shu Xiao muttered softly. He rarely lost his composure like this, but this ti, he faced an opponent that was too strong. Not to ntion the astonishing attributes and stamina attributes, even just the skills, all at the lowest level of LV.20, were enough to make Shu Xiao drink a pot.
Moreover, the only LV.20 ability was an aura type. Even if this big boss stood next to Su Xiao without doing anything, if Shu Xiao didn't consu recovery potions, he could only last for more than 20 minutes before dying.
"Phew."
Under the water pool, Resentful Orphan Resus exhaled a cold breath. The 'Inner Bent Knife' covering the muscle tissue in his hand rotated a few tis as if he was finding the proper grip. It was a blunt weapon with no blade.
Boom!
The entire main hall shook, and dust fell from the ceiling.
With a whoosh, the Orphan of Resentnt, Resus, jumped out of the water pool and stood not far from Su Xiao.
"Mortal, do you know what you've done? The Magic Association and the Holy Church were about to compromise with , and you dare to interrupt my evolution. I was just one step away from becoming a god."
Without eyelids, the eyeball of the Resentful Orphan Resus looked incredibly eerie, embedded in the eye socket.
When the Resentful Orphan Resus stood in front of Shu Xiao, he realised that this was very tall, at least over 3 ters tall.
"Mortal, I'm talking to you. Leave your last words."
The Resentful Orphan Resus pointed the muscle-bent knife in his hand at Shu Xiao.
"This used to be my line, but it's not a big problem that you're saying it now. As for the last words..."
Shu Xiao took out a cigarette, lit it, and took a deep drag. Perhaps this was his last cigarette.
"No last words. If you're capable, just kill ."
Su Xiao dropped the cigarette in his hand, and his gaze beca exceptionally sharp.
"Boring last words."
He suddenly disappeared from where he stood without any apparent movent from the Resentful Orphan Resus.
Boom, the sound of a burst of air ca, and the gust of wind from the Resentful Orphan Resus charging blew Su Xiao's black hair. When Su Xiao caught sight of the Resentful Orphan Resus' figure, the muscle-bent knife in his hand was already smashing towards him."
