Bi Linglong was completely baffled, unable to understand what he was doing. He asked who was the most powerful, and then said that he was that person. What was the point of that? Did he think the other person would be scared by that?

Mi Li was also a little confused, but she had been with Zu An for so long that there were almost no secrets left between them. She immediately remembered that the other party also had the skill of "keyboard attack".

She was shocked. Although the "Key Comes" skill had the effect of making words come true, the side effects were also obvious. With his current spiritual power, he could not use it much, and could only use it for small and medium-sized matters.

Now he has transformed into Ying Zheng, and even if he really kills Xu Fu, he will not be able to escape the backlash afterward.

He might be reduced to ashes right from the start...

She wanted to stop him, but it seemed he had already fully launched his attack. Thinking of this, she couldn't help but feel complicated. This guy could have left just now; he didn't want her to self-destruct her soul. But didn't he know that they had signed a life-and-death contract? If he died, she wouldn't be able to live either.

However, she quickly came to terms with it, thinking that dying together like this wasn't so bad, at least it would be a spectacular death.

Xu Fu, on the other side, was taken aback at first, then burst into laughter and said, "Are you crazy or am I crazy? You think you've become Qin Shi Huang just because you said one sentence?"

Zuan didn't answer, but just stared at him coldly.

Xu Fu was about to make a joke when his expression suddenly changed, because he had sensed the change in the other party's aura.

With a loud bang, a loud noise suddenly came from not far away. Everyone subconsciously turned around and saw that the lid of the coffin under the five-colored tree not far away had flown out, as if it had been kicked open by someone.

Xu Fu frowned, looking in that direction with some surprise and uncertainty.

A faint soul flew out from inside. Mi Li's eyes widened instantly. Although the figure was blurry, she could vaguely recognize that it was the same as Ying Zheng from back then.

Xu Fu dared not delay and hurriedly waved his hand, causing several tentacles to emerge from the blood pool and grab at the soul.

Even if it's Ying Zheng's soul, so what? His great formation has a powerful suppressive effect on things like souls. It will immediately show you what it means to have your soul scattered.

To his surprise, although the tentacles had already wrapped around the soul, the soul seemed to have no substance, allowing the blood-red tentacles to pass right through it and quickly reach Zu'an's side, entering his body.

What's going on?

Xu Fu was completely bewildered. He vaguely sensed that a higher-level law had broken through the rules of heaven and earth here.

Zuan opened his eyes again, but unlike his previous playful and unrestrained manner, he now exuded a violent and oppressive aura.

"Xu Fu!" Zu An spoke, his voice quite different from his usual tone.

Bi Linglong subconsciously moved away from him. Although he looked exactly the same, she felt an unprecedented sense of unfamiliarity.

She used to think that Zuan was too frivolous and unserious, but seeing this dignified and composed guy in front of her, she suddenly felt that the old Zuan was better.

Mi Li looked at him with a complicated expression, because the person in front of her had the exact same demeanor and tone as the person from back then.

Xu Fu's heart skipped a beat, and he subconsciously took a step back, but he immediately felt ashamed of the fear he had felt. Why should I be afraid of him now?

He steadied himself, straightened his chest, and looked the other person straight in the eye: "Ying Zheng?"

Zu An said coldly, "How dare you address me by my name!"

Xu Fu laughed heartily: "Do you still think you're the Qin Shi Huang who unified the world? Wake up, times have changed."

Zu An frowned, turned his head and scanned his surroundings, as if recalling something. When he saw Mi Li, he was stunned: "Empress, you're here too?"

Mi Li snorted coldly: "What, you didn't expect that I had already broken free of the seal? Although I hated you for sealing me before, I have always respected you. But now I find out that you were betrayed by your subordinates and have been ruined. To be honest, I despise you."

Hearing her speak to him like that, a hint of anger flashed between Zu An's brows. However, he seemed to recall something and did not lash out at Mi Li. Instead, he suddenly turned to look at Xu Fu, his eyes like those of a fierce tiger ready to devour its prey.

Xu Fu then came to his senses: "I didn't expect that kid to have such a secret method to summon your soul."

"Summoning the soul?" Bi Linglong finally realized that her ancestor had summoned Ying Zheng's soul. She was terrified, thinking he had become a different person.

Only Mi Li knew that this was not the case, but in a sense, it was not much different.

Zuan looked at him as if he were an ant: "Tell me, have you decided how you want to die?"

"Do you think I'd beg for mercy in fear after hearing that?" Xu Fu asked as if he'd heard a joke. "Back then, I might have been afraid, but now..."

He paused, his voice turning cold: "Although we suffered heavy losses in that battle, you perished even more. Fearing that I would use you to activate this great formation after your death, you deliberately destroyed your pure yang body, and your soul vanished into thin air."

At this point, he couldn't help but frown. He had specifically checked back then, and it was true that Ying Zheng's soul had been scattered after that great battle. So what was going on with this remnant soul of his now?

However, considering that his current strength was far greater than before, he didn't care much about these details: "You only have a wisp of remnant soul temporarily possessing someone else's body now, and your strength is less than one-tenth of what it was at its peak. I don't know where you get the confidence to say these things to me."
