"Are they here?"
Qin Shi's black eyes were like sharp swords as he looked towards the forest with vigilance. A wisp of dense spiritual power flashed in his sea of consciousness, causing his mind to sink.
Boom!
Suddenly, a loud sound came from the forest. The surrounding ancient trees all collapsed, and the ground split open like a winding dragon's spine. It actually cut the peak open.
Then, four pillars of light soared into the sky from the ravine, creating a strong resonance between them. A square-shaped barrier trapped the Xuan Group, the Hundred Clans, and thousands of disciples inside like a cage.
"Keke, little fellow, you're quite capable. I thought that the Bloodthirsty Dragon Shark alone would be enough to take care of you, but it seems that I've underestimated you." Then, a voice echoed in the clear sky, and dozens of figures shot out in all directions.
"It's the Fiend Race?"
Everyone raised their heads and looked at the clear sky outside the square-shaped barrier. A group of afterimages came like the wind, and their hearts couldn't help but be shocked.
There were about thirty people who came forward, and all of them were as beautiful as Pan An or as beautiful as a nation.
Weren't these the characteristics of the Fiend Race?
The moment the Fiend Race appeared, She Xi 'er trembled in Yu Luocha's arms. She raised her head and looked at the two leaders of the Fiend Race, shouting excitedly, "Uncle Silver Elephant, Uncle Cang Lang!"
"Xi 'er?"
Seeing She Xi 'er in Yu Luocha's arms, the two were obviously surprised, but only for a moment before their faces turned ashen.
The middle-aged man called Cang Lang was silent for a while, then immediately revealed a strange smile. He waved his hand, and the space around She Xi 'er violently trembled. She was suddenly grabbed. "Xi' er, come to uncle!"
"Xi 'er!"
The sudden abnormality startled Yu Luocha, but just as she was about to leap to grab She Xi 'er, Silver Elephant, who was beside Cang Lang, waved his hand. A silver light broke the barrier and pierced straight towards Yu Luocha's forehead.
Bang!
In the midst of the panic, Yu Luocha's beautiful eyes widened. By the time she regained her composure, it was already too late for her to dodge. Fortunately, a black-robed figure dashed down and flashed in front of her. In the next moment, a piercingly cold light shot out to meet her.
The D-shaped sword light blocked the light.
"Huh?
You blocked it? "
Silver Elephant clasped his hands behind his back, feeling a little surprised.
Seeing Silver Elephant's actions, She Xi 'er struggled with all her might in Cang Lang's arms. "Uncle Silver Elephant, I won't allow you to hurt Brother Stone!"
He wanted to raise his hand again, but She Xi 'er had already thrown herself onto Silver Elephant's back after breaking free. Her pink fists rained down on Silver Elephant's back.
Enduring the itching pain, Silver Elephant couldn't help but be stunned. He grabbed She Xi 'er off his back and said with a bitter smile, "Alright, Uncle Silver Elephant won't hurt her. Can you go back with Uncle Ash Wolf first?
I'll bring your Brother Stone back immediately. "
"Really?"
She Xi 'er questioned doubtfully.
"Of course it's true. Has Uncle Silver Elephant ever lied to you?"
Silver Elephant chuckled and coaxed him. He then waved his hand at Cang Lang and said, "Send Xi 'er back first."
After Cang Lang received She Xi 'er from the Silver Elephant, he hesitated for a moment before nodding and saying, "Then hurry up. The sacrificial ceremony will be held tonight. It will be troublesome if we delay the live sacrifice."
"Alright." Silver Elephant nodded in response.
Seeing that Silver Elephant had agreed, Cang Lang stood up with She Xi 'er in his arms and turned around. He faced the sky and leaped off the mountain.
Inside the barrier of light pillars, Qin Shi supported Yu Luocha and asked with concern, "How are you?
Are you hurt? "
"I'm fine. Where's Xi 'er?"
Yu Luocha's pretty face was pale. She forcefully waved her lily-white hand at Qin Shi before looking up at the sky.
Qin Shi couldn't help but be startled. He smiled bitterly and said, "Don't worry. Xi 'er is a member of the Fiend Race. The Fiend Race won't make things difficult for her."
Yu Luocha nodded and didn't say anything else.
After comforting Yu Luocha, Qin Shi raised his black eyes and said to Silver Elephant, "Haha, a dignified member of the Fiend Race is so heavy-handed against a woman who doesn't even have the strength to truss a chicken. Aren't you afraid of being laughed at?"
Silver Elephant, who was in the sky, laughed in surprise when he heard this. "Haha, you said that Yu Luocha is a woman who doesn't even have the strength to truss a chicken?
Are you joking with me? "
Qin Shi shrugged. He didn't want to argue with Silver Elephant on this topic. As far as he was concerned, no matter what kind of cultivation base Yu Luocha had, she was just a woman who needed to be protected and loved.
Since the Fiends had set up a ward in this area, they must have a plan. Now, all he needed to know was what their plan was and what the price would be.
He only hoped that the price wouldn't be too heavy.
To this end, Qin Shi clenched his fists and concentrated his psychic power on every inch of space within a thousand meters. If Silver Elephant suddenly attacked him at this moment, he wouldn't hesitate to take him down with him.
Sensing Qin Shi's change, Yu Luocha's cold expression melted. She gently held his arm, and when her beautiful eyes met his, it was as if she was declaring a kind of determination, a determination to live and die together with him.
"No matter what happens, I'll be with you."
Heart trembling, Qin Shi's expression changed slightly. Looking at Yu Luocha, who rarely showed such tenderness, he raised his hand and gently stroked her black hair. "Don't think too much, silly. Everything will be fine."
Yu Luocha nodded her head gently and leaned her body against Qin Shi again.
Putting his arm around Yu Luocha's shoulder, Qin Shi let out a long sigh and looked up at Silver Elephant with his deep, black eyes like sharp swords. "Tell me, what do you want?"
At this moment, Xuanyuan and Nangong Bing also rose to their feet and stood beside Qin Shi, waiting for Silver Elephant's answer with solemn expressions.
The only thing worth celebrating was that they had the Holy Spirit Flower, which was their last bargaining chip.
Silver Elephant looked down at them with a disdainful, murderous look on his face. "Haha, what do you want?
It took me so much effort to gather you here. Of course I want you dead! "
"Heh, how arrogant!"
Xuan Yun and Nangong Bing's faces darkened, their voices filled with anger.
Qin Shi didn't say anything. After a moment of silence, he raised the Holy Spirit Flower and laughed. "Haha, you want us to die?
Don't forget, the Holy Spirit Flower is in our hands. If you push us too far, you'll have to wait another thirty years. "
"Haha, Holy Spirit Flower?
Are you sure you really have the Holy Spirit Flower in your hands? "Silver Elephant was stunned, as if he had heard the funniest joke in the world. He stood with his hands behind his back and laughed.
"Hm?"
Qin Shi frowned his brows. Shortly after, his Divine Sense shook as a bad premonition rose in his heart. Thereafter, he pinched the Holy Spiritual Flower in his hand and a faint golden Spiritual Energy poured into the Holy Spiritual Flower from his fingers.
Touched by the weak spiritual power, the Holy Spirit Flower suddenly emitted a dark blue light. Then, in an instant, it became limp and finally melted.
Looking at the melted Holy Spirit Flower, Qin Shi's face turned green. "Damn it, we were tricked?"
"Kid, what are you doing?"
Seeing Qin Shi's actions, Xuan Yun was enraged.
Nangong Bing was also startled. But before the two of them could speak, Yu Luocha's beautiful figure rose into the air. She said sternly, "Idiots, can't you see?
This Holy Spirit Flower is fake! "
"Fake, fake?"
Xuan Yun and Nangong Bing trembled. Then, the Holy Spirit Flower in Qin Shi's hand completely dissipated, turning into a puddle of water that fell into the Heavenly Lake.
Seeing this scene, everyone's heart turned cold.
Qin Shi's black eyes looked down at the remaining water in his hand and smiled bitterly.
The Holy Spirit Flower was fake. That meant that they didn't even have their last bargaining chip.
Realizing this, the Xuan Group and Bai Clan's people all panicked. One by one, they went crazy and used all kinds of martial arts at the same time.
"Dragon Swimming in the Four Seas!"
Xuan Yun raised his hand as well, and a Flood Dragon that was connected to the sky and water surged up from the surface of the lake, abruptly biting down towards the silver elephant in the sky.
Nangong Bing followed up with two lightning bolts, "Lightning Fall Spear!"
But only Qin Shi, who was supporting Yu Luocha, stood on the spot. Raising his head, he looked at the bright light barrier around him. His heart sank into an unprecedented seriousness.
Lowering his head, looking at the attacks that covered the sky, Silver Elephant smiled calmly. He didn't even dodge and stood with his hands behind his back, "Hmph, overestimating yourself. If it was so easy for you to break free, we would have been eating sh * t for the past half a month."
Boom!
Suddenly, the bright light in the sky froze for a moment when it touched the barrier. Then, before it could even cause a ripple, it disappeared at the edge of the barrier.
Looking at the martial arts and spirit energy that disappeared, Qin Shi's gloomy face became serious again, "As expected, it's a spatial barrier?"
Holding his hands behind his back, Silver Elephant looked down at Qin Shi and said with a smile, "Do you still think you're qualified to negotiate with me now?"
Qin Shi's heavy heart felt like it was being crushed by a boulder. He raised his head with a cold expression. "You've really put in a lot of effort. However, what I'm more curious about is why you've put in so much effort to set up a spatial barrier to capture us.
"Don't worry, you'll find out tonight!"
With a cunning smile, Silver Elephant waved his hand at the four Fiend disciples beside him and said, "Close the barrier and send them back. We'll prepare for tonight's live sacrifice!"
"Yes, sir!"
The four Fiend disciples received their orders and leaped towards the four pillars of light. Immediately afterwards, profound magical symbols rose from the four pillars of light and began to converge towards the center of the pillars.
BOOM!
In the next moment, the space within a fifty kilometer radius was compressed into a spatial ring.
Silver Elephant held the ring and waved his hand, saying, "Let's go!"
After leaving the mountain peak, Silver Elephant and the others quickly returned to the altar at the back of the mountain.
Close to a thousand handsome men and women were gathered in front of the altar.
Sitting on the altar, Blue Eagle stroked his white beard leisurely. Upon seeing Silver Elephant, he smiled coldly and said, "Haha, how was it?"
"Everything is ready, High Chieftain."
Silver Elephant knelt down on one knee and handed the spatial ring to Blue Eagle.
After receiving the ring, Blue Eagle licked his chapped lips and a rare look of excitement appeared on his aged face. Clapping his hands, he exclaimed, "Good! I've been waiting for four thousand people to be sacrificed."
Standing beside Silver Elephant, the Wolf King lowered his head and hesitated for a moment before finally stepping forward and saying, "High Chieftain Blue Eagle, there's one thing I don't know if I should tell you."
"What is it?
Speak! "
Blue Eagle seemed very happy as he waved at the Wolf King with a big smile.
After a moment of hesitation, the Wolf King said with embarrassment, "She Xi 'er isn't dead..."
"What?"
The smile on Qing Diao's face stiffened. Then, he stood up abruptly, and a mighty spiritual pressure shook the surrounding woods. "Didn't someone spread the news when she and that bitch left the clan?
Why isn't she dead? "
The Wolf King felt a chill in his heart. Shivering, he quickly squatted down respectfully and said, "Reporting, High Chieftain, it was Yu Luocha who saved her."
"Yu Luocha, Yu Luocha!
It's her again! "
"It's been thirty years, a whole thirty years. Snake-Horned Dragon, you've really found yourself a good sister. But I want to see how she can ruin my plans without Hua Ling this time!"
Hearing the name Yu Luocha, Blue Eagle seemed to have been ignited. Waves of fierce anger shot up to the sky.
The people under the altar all trembled and lowered their heads.
Blue Eagle clenched his fists after a long time. "Forget it, hide her first and don't let those old fellows in the Elders Council know. When everything is ready, I'll kill her with my own hands!"
"Yes!"
The Wolf King nodded while shivering and hurriedly retreated.
Looking at the retreating Wolf King, Blue Eagle leaned back on the chair behind him and raised his head. The corners of his dry lips curled up into a strange arc, and wisps of undetectable spiritual light lingered around him.
