"You're not from there?" The masked man was unusually fixated on this question, almost neurotically. Seeing that Black Owl had no reaction, he wondered to himself for a while, then suddenly realized, "Could it be that you, like the Ninth King, are also from the Black Purgatory?"

After saying that, he began to excitedly mutter to himself: "No wonder, no wonder the Ninth Prince was willing to give you his own warhorse; in that case, you must be the former... No wonder my senior brother couldn't find you anywhere, it turns out you've been by the Ninth Prince's side all along! The Ninth Prince is really bold, he actually dared to keep you by his side and even let you parade around in public!"

"You are from Black Purgatory." Upon hearing his neurotic words, Black Owl's beautiful, peach-blossom eyes suddenly darkened, and a hint of bloodlust appeared.

Killing intent, murderous aura.

Like a raging storm, the wind whipped at the hair on his shoulders and back. Dressed in a black, close-fitting outfit, he looked like a demon god emerging from hell.

"You've been looking for me?" A cold, murderous smile played on Black Owl's lips. "You know, I've been looking for you all along too. It's like finding a needle in a haystack, only to have it come to me without any effort at all!"

"You..." The masked man was somewhat alarmed by the sight of the black owl: "You're clearly not him, how come..."

"How am I still alive? How can my martial arts have improved and I have the ability to settle old scores with you?" Black Owl's longsword thrust at the masked man again, each move aimed at vital points and each move was fatal.

The masked man, forced to exchange two blows with him, was even more shocked: "Your cultivation has actually improved to this extent, could you be the Venerable One...?"

At this point, the masked man's eyes suddenly flashed with a thousand rays of light, and he excitedly shouted, "Wang An, there's no need to chase him anymore! Quickly gather everyone to capture Xiao Chen! Capture him, and each person will be rewarded with ten thousand taels of gold!"

Ten thousand taels of gold!

The masked men in black went crazy. Even those who were drugged and lying on the ground struggled to get up and try to make this windfall.

Ji Fengming: "?!"

What happened?

Are these people really that fickle?

Just a moment ago they were yelling about arresting Wang An, and now they're talking about arresting Black Owl?

"Hey you guys, can't you show me some respect? I'm with him, so if you're going to arrest someone, arrest them together!" Ji Fengming protested, fighting as he moved closer to Hei Xiao.

The men in black all gave him a look as if he were an idiot, and they didn't even want to fight him anymore. Instead, they all swung their weapons at Black Owl.

"Brother Hei, we can't beat him..." Ji Fengming tried to grab Hei Xiao's shoulder and persuade him to run away if he couldn't win, but before he could even make a move, Hei Xiao turned around and almost sliced ​​off his claws with a sword: "Damn it, Brother Hei, what are you doing? When you get angry, you even attack your own people?"

"Stay away from me," Black Owl's bloodshot eyes flickered, his tone a mix of pain and cruelty.

Ji Fengming was shocked and realized something was wrong.

"You still want to take me back? Then you'll all die!" Black Owl was like a demon god, his long sword dancing in a blur of afterimages.

The long, silent street was now dominated by screams and blood. Soon, the streets and rooftops were littered with corpses.

The blood on the roof flowed down the grooves of the roof tiles, forming a trickle that dripped along the eaves, mingling with the blood on the street below to form a blood stream.

Ji Fengming was extremely anxious. He remembered Ji Fengyao's instructions not to let Hei Xiao engage in a fierce fight with others.

He also wanted Black Owl to stop, but Black Owl was now in a semi-mad state and wouldn't listen to him at all.

Just then, the masked man laughed arrogantly, "So it was just a case of qi deviation. A pet will always just be a pet!"
