Although Mo Shuwan, who was being held in the palm of the hand, could not see the monster's movements, she could guess that it was bending over as the monster's arm descended.

However, Mo Shuwan was wrong. The monster didn't bend over; instead, it knelt directly in front of the young man and uttered a muffled sound, "Master......"

The young man stepped on the monster's arm and jumped onto its shoulder, patting the monster's head with a smile. "You're still alive after all this time. Very good, very good. The warriors selected from that side are currently on our territory. We'll capture them as a gift when I return."

The monster stood up and, under the young man's command, headed towards the place where the monster had rioted. Meanwhile, Mo Shuwan, who seemed to have been forgotten while being held in his palm, was experiencing a huge uproar in her heart.

What does "the soldiers selected by that side" mean? Are the soldiers he has referring to Wen Zuo and his men who are currently outside?

Who exactly is he? And what is the monster's identity?

The more Mo Shuwan thought about it, the more her scalp tingled. She felt as if she had touched on something that Zheng Shanhe had just said was not suitable for her to know right now.

As the monster drew closer, Zheng Shanhe's expression grew increasingly grim. "Don't let the dark creature get within ten meters."

Although there were quite a few dark creatures, Zheng Shanhe's request was not a problem for Wen Zuo and his group. It was only ten meters; they could stop them.

Zheng Shanhe got out of his wheelchair with a cane. He squatted down and painstakingly drew a huge pentagram on the ground. After the pentagram was completed, he added some strange patterns in the middle and finally connected the points with lines.

Zheng Shanhe placed dozens, even hundreds, of black crystals in various key positions on the pattern. More and more sweat beaded on his forehead. Finally, after placing the last black crystal, a look of relief appeared on his face. However, his exhaustion was obvious. He was so exhausted that he collapsed on the ground and couldn't get up for a long time.

As the power of the black crystal gradually seeped into each line, Zheng Shanhe shouted in a deep voice.

"Come in, everyone, let's get out of here!"

Although they didn't know Zheng Shanhe's intentions, he certainly wouldn't joke about his own life. Wen Zuo and the others squeezed into the huge pentagram he had just drawn. After Wen Zuo helped Zheng Shanhe up from the ground, they found that Arou, Cheng Leikai, and Zou Zhiqing had not yet come in.

"Lei Kai, what are you doing! Let go of Sister Zou!"

Chen Leikai's eyes had turned scarlet as he stared intently at Zou Zhiqing. "The game will only be more exciting if you stay."

Supported by Wen Zuo, Zheng Shanhe suddenly clutched his chest in pain, completely losing all strength. He weakly roared, "Come in quickly!"

Zou Zhiqing cursed under his breath and suddenly used brute force to pull Cheng Leikai into the pentagram. The moment they entered, the monster's figure appeared where they had just been standing, and a putrid stench hit them, making everyone feel suffocated.

Seeing the fully formed pentagram array on the ground, the young man froze, then roared with a grim expression, "Stop them!"

Those standing inside the pentagram only saw a giant hand rushing towards them. Just when they thought they were about to be struck by this hand, the pentagram emitted a dazzling light, and the next second, everyone disappeared under the monster's palm.

The young man, his face grim, jumped off the monster's shoulder and stared at the ground where the pentagram should have been, now completely distorted. "Damn it, how did those guys from that race end up here?!"

Mo Shuwan is still in the monster's grasp, and it is unknown what the monster plans to do. It has not yet handed her over to its so-called master, and when it attacked Wen Zuo and the others just now, it used its other hand.

"Master...the world...the core...is about to collapse..."

"I know they can't wait any longer, and neither can I. Let's hurry up and capture those guys." The young man thought that this world was just a low-level world among the three thousand minor worlds. Even if people from that race appeared here, they wouldn't be any powerful beings. He smiled, "If I can capture them, I can at least lead an army when I go back this time, right?"

Leading an army?

Mo Shuwan tried hard to catch some key words in the young man's words, and after piecing together the information she had just heard, she helplessly realized that neither of the two strange guys next to her were mentioned in the forum posts about the dark world.

What secret is being hidden? Does that group refer to Zheng Shanhe?

Feeling like her head was about to explode, Mo Shuwan sighed silently and listened to the monster and the young man's intermittent conversation. As time passed, she finally felt a little relieved. Although she didn't know what the monster was thinking, it seemed that the monster didn't intend to hand her over to the young man.

As long as she remains in the monster's hands, she still has a chance to escape, and may even be able to uncover more secrets as a result.

The group, who had appeared thousands of miles away, looked around in shock. The monster's figure had vanished, and the endless stream of dark creatures had also disappeared. Just as they were about to ask Zheng Shanhe what had happened, they were thrown to the ground by a tremendous force.

"Depend on!"

"Yun Chen, what are you doing!"

"There's a bug." Yun Chen frowned and threw away his clothes, which were bulging with a huge bulge inside. He said with disgust, "I don't like bugs."

"insect?"

Chen Jiaxu, who happened to be standing next to Yun Chen's discarded clothes, bent down and lifted the clothes. He was immediately shocked and gasped. It really was an insect, and it was another kind of disgusting and chilling insect in the dark world, besides parasites.
