"ah--"

A scream echoed all around, startling the birds flying overhead.

A strong fishy smell filled the air.

Yi Changsheng took a step back, covering his bleeding right eye with his hand. Large beads of sweat slowly slid down his forehead, and blood stained his hands, sliding down his scarred face, falling from mid-air to the ground, spreading out like a blood lotus in bloom.

As if sensing danger, the birds and beasts quickly left that place.

Yi Changsheng's hand trembled as he covered his eyes, the pain shooting from his eyes to his nerves.

Feeling the pain, Yi Changsheng shuddered, which reminded him of when he was injured by the fox demon.

In his entire life, Yi Changsheng was only ever hurt by that fox demon; from then on, he was the one hurting others!

Although his body would hurt during the backlash, he had experienced backlashes for hundreds of years and was already used to the pain they caused.

Being hurt by others is different; this feeling and the pain caused by the backlash are very intense, and it also terrifies him.

The backlash was just painful; he was confident it wouldn't kill him.

But if you get injured and bleed, it could very well cost you your life!

As Jiang Yuan said, he feared death and was afraid of dying!

Therefore, he acted with extreme caution, and he killed all those who questioned him or disagreed with him, leaving no future trouble.

Only in this way can he rest easy and no one can threaten him!

Centuries have passed, and he has forgotten what it feels like to be hurt by others.

But now, he remembered it again.

It remains a vivid memory.

He was scared!

Yi Changsheng gasped for breath, one eye fixed on Jiang Yuan, no longer as confident as before, but filled with fear.

Seeing her, a sense of fear welled up in my heart.

Besides seeing Jiang Yuan's face, he also saw that the pen she raised seemed to have transformed into a sharp knife.

He was only in a daze for a moment before his eye was injured.

Jiang Yuan looked coldly at Yi Changsheng, who was filled with fear, and sneered.

She once said that the more you desire something, the more you fear it.

Yi Changsheng was afraid of her, but he was even more afraid that she would kill him.

He was afraid of dying.

I was terrified.

If there is anything in this world that Yi Changsheng fears, it is probably death!

"Who exactly are you?" Yi Changsheng questioned, his other eye fixed on Jiang Yuan.

Who exactly is she? How can she be so strange?

Let him guess?

How did he guess?

All he could guess was that she, like him, had possessed someone else's body.

But how would he know which powerful figure possessed Jiang Yuan's body?

Jiang Yuan sneered and did not answer Yi Changsheng's question.

Some people are worthy of her answer, but some are not.

Or rather, she felt that talking to the other person lowered her status.

Yi Changsheng is the second type.

Jiang Yuan's shadow flashed and disappeared from Yi Changsheng's sight. When she reappeared, she was already behind Yi Changsheng.

She somehow produced talismans in her hands and, mimicking Yi Changsheng's actions, pasted them around, imprisoning Yi Changsheng within the formation.

He loves formations so much and has studied them quite a bit, so now it's his turn to enter the formation.

I wonder how he'll break her 'killing formation'!

Yi Changsheng looked at the golden light emanating from the talisman in front of him, his face grim.

Rune Array!

Jiang Yuan also knows how to use talisman arrays!

How could she...?

This is...

"No, no...no, how could this be...how could you..." Yi Changsheng exclaimed in astonishment, turning to look at Jiang Yuan.

Before he could finish speaking, Jiang Yuan waved his hand, and Yi Changsheng retreated a few meters and entered the formation.

"Ah—" Yi Changsheng screamed in agony.

Killing formation!

When did she learn the killing formation?!

When was this killing formation drawn?

No, that's not right. This killing formation has no deterrent power and poses no threat whatsoever!

"Ha, ha, you only imitated the drawing method of the killing formation, but your formation has no soul!"

"The power of a killing formation doesn't rely on the formation itself. The formation is only used to trap the soul; the most important thing is the soul inside!"

"The more souls there are, the deeper their resentment, and the heavier their malevolent aura, the stronger the formation will be!"

"Your killing formation is completely powerless!"

After entering the formation, Yi Changsheng, who was frightened just moments before, discovered that the formation had no deterrent effect on him whatsoever.

Without the support of the soul, he could break this formation in the blink of an eye!

He was startled when he entered the formation.

Now, he felt relieved.

A killing formation without power is not worth worrying about!

Jiang Yuan looked at Yi Changsheng, whose expression had immediately changed, and a smile appeared on his otherwise cold face.

Jiang Yuan took out a talisman, which immediately caught fire.

"Guard your heart," Jiang Yuan shouted.

As soon as he finished speaking, the talisman burned to ashes.

Yi Changsheng frowned deeply.

Guard your heart?

What is that?

Before Yi Changsheng could think it through, he felt something staring at him from behind.

Yi Changsheng turned around and saw a crack appear in the void in front of him. A ghostly messenger walked out from the dark and bottomless crack.

Looking at Yi Changsheng, her fox-like eyes were filled with boundless resentment. She enunciated each word clearly: "Yi—Chang—Sheng!"

Shouxin's frail body trembled, as if surprised and excited at the same time.

"I knew it... I knew you were still alive, I knew you couldn't die so easily!" Shouxin said excitedly, several pure white tails sprouting from his back, and even his captivating face turned into a fox face, while his body remained human.

When Yi Changsheng saw the underworld official in front of him, he was stunned. At first, he only felt that the face was somewhat familiar, until her face turned into a fox, and then Yi Changsheng remembered who she was.
