Bai Qiushui originally thought it was his long-suppressed true essence suddenly releasing, breaking through the seal all at once.
But unexpectedly, there was another factor.
"How did you know I am a descendant of the White Emperor, and why do you know I was imprisoned here?" Bai Qiushui was still puzzled.
Xu Hei was also confused by this.
The timing was just too coincidental, right when he was captured and about to escape. It didn't make sense.
Lin Ziye explained, "It's said that a rogue cultivator delivered the ssage. Normally, a rogue cultivator's ssage wouldn't reach the teacher, and even if it did, the teacher wouldn't believe its contents."
"But there was a black dog by his side, the sa one that repelled two Demon Lords."
"With this dog as proof, the teacher believed the ssage after receiving it and risked sending deep into enemy lines to scout the location of the Sea God Sect."
Xu Hei suddenly understood.
It was Hei Huang and Han Te, secretly arranging for a big shot to rescue him!
No! It was to rescue Bai Qiushui.
They just happened to save him along the way.
No wonder it was such a coincidence; everything made sense now.
"Boom!!!"
Suddenly, Xu Hei collided with an invisible wall, producing a dull sound. Water rippled, and countless complex patterns appeared beneath the sea surface. Formations erged in the distance, quickly converging.
In an instant, the butcher's limbs were locked by the formation, unable to move.
"Formation?"
Lin Ziye squinted his eyes and imdiately noticed a group of people chasing after them, led by Blood Vengeance and three other gamblers.
It seed the formation here was set up in advance, lying in ambush, and they just happened to run into it.
Xu Hei's face darkened, and he shouted, "You go quickly, don't worry about . I have my own way to escape!"
Xu Hei's serious expression made Lin Ziye's heart tremble. He quickly nodded and said, "Alright!"
Lin Ziye was not indecisive. He drove the watercraft at full speed, heading into the distance, and soon disappeared from sight.
At this mont, Blood Vengeance and his group closed in, surrounding Xu Hei's puppet butcher from four directions.
Xu Hei said coldly, "Did you set up this formation in advance?"
"That's right. When you were distributing pills to others, I guessed you might try to escape, so I set up the formation here in advance, waiting for you to take the bait!" Blood Vengeance replied calmly.
"Then how did you know I would escape in this direction and not another?" Xu Hei asked.
"I set up formations in other directions too, a total of eighty-one places. As long as I intercept you in one place, the remaining eighty will quickly converge, forming the Eighty-One Lock Chain Formation."
Blood Vengeance patiently explained.
The Eighty-One Lock Chain Formation was a unique secret technique of his Vajra Sect, specifically used for large-scale capturing of prey. Although it covered a large area, its drawback was that it could only target one person.
If Lin Ziye were also captured, the formation's power would be dispersed, allowing both to escape.
However, targeting Xu Hei alone was enough.
As long as he obtained the wealth on Xu Hei, it would completely compensate for the loss of the eighty-one formations.
Moreover, capturing the escaped steward would be a great achievent, and killing him on the spot would earn him many contribution points, directly promoting him to a third-level steward.
As for ng Hao, he would definitely be demoted for serious dereliction of duty.
Xu Hei's expression remained calm. At this mont, his true self was fleeing at full speed, already reaching a critical point. If he continued forward, he would lose sense and control over the butcher.
"I wonder what fate awaits the butcher. Farewell!"
Xu Hei sighed inwardly, hesitated no longer, and his true self accelerated, turning into a stream of light, rushing into the distance.
As for the butcher's fate, it was left to chance.
However, as long as the butcher wasn't completely destroyed, given his level of refinent over the butcher, he might be able to reclaim it if he encountered it again!
At the sa ti.
In the cloudy sky, Old Master's scolding voice echoed, "You two young people, ganging up on an old man, have no sense of martial virtue! I'm not playing with you anymore, goodbye!"
Leaving those words, Old Master turned and left without hesitation.
"Coming here and wanting to leave? Stay!"
An angry shout ca from beneath the sea, and the seawater ford a ferocious giant mouth, rushing towards Old Master in the sky.
The shadow in the sky also spread out, seemingly trying to intercept.
"A friend from afar, isn't it delightful?"
Old Master just laughed, and the scroll beneath his feet lifted him up. His body rged into the book, turning into a flying leaf that vanished into the void.
The Nightmare Demon Lord said, "You go after that old man, I have so personal matters to attend to."
The Devouring Demon Lord didn't speak, just snorted coldly, and the shadow beneath the sea also vanished into the void, disappearing without a trace.
...
Blood Vengeance waved his sleeve, and countless blood-colored flying needles shot out, piercing into the butcher's body, embedding in every joint and bone.
But to his surprise, the joints and bones inside the butcher seed endless, countless in number.
"This person is strange, probably having cultivated so demonic art, with more than one body inside." Blood Vengeance said in a deep voice.
Others also cast spells, shattering the butcher's armor, exposing his body. Beneath the pitch-black skin were countless joints and muscles, various organs twisted together, making one's scalp tingle.
"What kind of monster is this!"
Everyone was astounded.
"I heard this person is called Ye Kong, originally just at the Foundation Establishnt Stage. Sohow, he had a stroke of luck, breaking through to Core Formation, and was noticed by the Protector, becoming a steward."
"Damn! This person looks disgusting, let's burn him clean first!"
A man with a sharp mouth and monkey cheeks released a fire lotus, spewing flas that engulfed the butcher's body, charring it black, burning off limbs, and even half of the head.
"Enough!"
Blood Vengeance noticed sothing was wrong and quickly stopped the flas.
Previously, the butcher in front of them had so reactions, seemingly brewing so move, but as ti passed, there was no movent.
Blood Vengeance thought the other was pretending, staying vigilant, but even as it was nearly burned to death, there was still no movent.
"What kind of trick is this person playing?" Blood Vengeance squinted his eyes.
And at that mont, all the butcher's eyes simultaneously turned, locking onto the four people.
In the next second, countless octopus tentacles shot out, stabbing towards Blood Vengeance and the others.
"Attack!"
Blood Vengeance's face darkened, quickly summoning his magical treasure, launching various attacks at the butcher. Five-colored lights flashed continuously, the booming sound like firecrackers, stirring up waves.
However, the butcher also began to counterattack, forming a thick whale armor on its surface, deflecting all attacks back, with heads protruding from its face and dozens of arms appearing, looking extrely ferocious.
Having lost Xu Hei's control, the butcher began acting on instinct, like a corpse puppet!
"Go all out!" Blood Vengeance shouted.
...
After several breaths of attack, the sky darkened.
Everyone's hearts tightened, quickly stopping their attacks, kneeling on the ground, bowing to the sky, "Greetings, Protector!"
In the dark sky, a pair of eyes like whirlpools appeared, scanning everyone, finally stopping on the butcher's broken body.
"Whoosh!" The butcher's figure flew into the sky, disappearing into the dark clouds.
Everyone held their breath, not daring to make a sound.
"Did you do this?" An icy voice ca, like a ghost whispering.
Blood Vengeance and the others didn't dare to lie, quickly nodding, "Yes!"
