Li Wenhe turned his head and looked coldly at Arthur.
Blood beads flowed down his cheeks onto his fair chin, creating a sharp yet broken beauty.
Arthur: "You're not convinced? I'll release your blood and break your bones one by one in a moment, and see if you're still so tough."
He paused, then turned to look at He Wangyao.
He Wangyao's heart tightened immediately, and only one thought came to her mind: Boss, where are you?
This Arthur is clearly a lunatic. Boss, if you had arrived a moment later, we might not be intact anymore!
Although Mingzhuo said he wouldn't die young, that's completely different from not losing an arm or a leg!
Arthur glared at He Wangyao with a sinister look: "What did you just say? Say it again if you dare!"
"Your extraterrestrial god is a complete weakling! He has to rely on devouring souls and flesh to gain power, which shows he's a piece of trash!" He Wangyao still dared to be cheeky.
Arthur raised the dagger with a cold smile.
He Wangyao closed his eyes in fright. He was just a master of empty talk, having learned a whole bunch of Ming Zhuo's way of speaking, but he hadn't even mastered one-thousandth of his skills.
The expected stinging pain did not come; instead, a slight clicking sound came from beside my ear, which sounded somewhat familiar.
He Wangyao quickly opened her eyes and saw Arthur looking at her with a terrified expression. The dagger he had raised high was falling inch by inch, but it wasn't aimed at He Wangyao's face.
Li Wenhe, who was standing nearby, reacted quickly. When Arthur's hand was shaking so badly that he could not hold the dagger, he quickly bent down and caught the falling dagger.
Then he and Tang Zhen quickly exchanged a glance, and Tang Zhen hurriedly turned around to reveal the rope tied behind his back.
That dagger was incredibly sharp; Li Wenhe had learned his lesson before and knew its effectiveness.
They cut the ropes binding Tang Zhen in a few swift movements without alerting anyone.
Once Tang Zhen's hands were freed, he glanced at He Wangyao, paused for a moment, and then quickly stepped forward to cut the ropes for Li Wenhe, He Wangyao, Pei Di, and the others.
He Wangyao then noticed that a doll was sitting on her shoulder.
Its posture was languid, with a touch of the casual nonchalance of someone in a superior position, and its dark eyes were fixed on Arthur.
In the dim light, it appeared eerie and sinister.
Arthur was trembling all over. He felt as if his consciousness was trapped in an endless nightmare, from which he could not break free.
What exactly is that thing? Why did it render me completely immobile?
He tried to issue a warning to alert Madam Luo and the others to the unusual activity, but it was all in vain.
It must be that Ruan Mingzhuo who's here, that cunning and treacherous woman!
Li Wenhe took the dagger and stabbed it into Asena's palm without hesitation.
The excruciating pain allowed Arthur to break free for a moment, and he couldn't help but cry out.
"A divine messenger?" Someone walked over, looking at them with a puzzled expression. In the dim light, he could only see Arthur facing him sideways.
"Get out of here!" Luo Wenxin suddenly spoke, changing his voice so that it sounded very similar to Arthur's.
Li Wenhe shoved the still-dripping dagger into Asena's hand and pulled his hand up.
Blood trickled down the dagger, and the man glanced at it before retreating.
This divine messenger, though possessing a baby face, has recently undergone a drastic change in temperament, suddenly developing a penchant for torturing and abusing hostages. He'll even stab his own people in the back if he's displeased.
He dared not disturb Arthur's enjoyment and gestured for the others to leave.
Asena: "..."
These bunch of useless trash!
Tang Zhen lowered his voice and asked Li Wenhe, "What should we do now?"
He Wangyao quickly replied, "Wait for our boss! Little Mumu is here, so she'll definitely be here too, but it's not convenient for her to show herself yet."
Tang Zhen glanced at the puppet with a complicated expression.
He was truly astonished; he never imagined that such a highly accomplished person as Qingfeng Langyue Rumingzhuo would also raise evil spirits!
No one knows what the origin of this puppet is. Liao Hongmei just said that a powerful ghost is attached to it. She doesn't even dare to sense that power, just like last time at Hongguang Building.
Tang Zhen's feelings were somewhat complicated. So, Ming Zhuo had become so powerful that he could keep a ghost king-level ghost as a pet?
Isn't this going a bit too far?
Just then, the strange chanting stopped, and the scene fell silent.
When everyone looked up, they realized that the burning incense had already burned to the end.
Liu Shuang's parents and other ordinary people who had been controlled began to walk onto the altar one by one.
Holding candles, the villagers prostrated themselves on the ground with piety and expectation, shouting: "Slay this place of filth and restore our Pure Land of Bliss!"
He Wangyao suddenly had a bad feeling. He looked at the large cauldron burning on the altar and wondered, "Could these people be used as sacrificial offerings?"
Before Li Wenhe could answer, a group of people walked over.
"Your turn, go up and bleed them out!"
Everyone was startled. Luo Wenxin lowered her head and pretended to speak in Arthur's voice, "Isn't it time yet?"
Upon hearing this, the leader's expression immediately turned strange.
Li Wenhe had a bad feeling; they had been exposed!
Sure enough, the next second, those people drew their weapons, the tips of their blades gleaming eerily in the dim light, and slashed at the group of people.
Li Wenhe and Tang Zhen reacted the fastest, quickly parrying several attacks and protecting everyone as they retreated.
However, he suddenly heard a rustling sound under his feet. Li Wenhe became alert and lit a talisman, throwing it over. The firelight illuminated everything in front of him, making everything clear.
