The bottom floor of the tower.
This layer is structured like a giant well, surrounded by a well curb several meters wide, and the bottom of the well connects to the sea.
The black seawater surged and roared, and a huge black shadow swam beneath it, bringing a sense of unknown fear.
In mid-air, a black hole suddenly opened, and Xuan Tu stepped out from it, carrying a blood-soaked figure.
This person was none other than Lu Ze, a spatial rune ability user under his command.
Xuan Tu left the person by the well.
Lu Ze was covered in wounds caused by the spatial blades, and his tendons in his hands and feet were severed. He couldn't even stand up and could only lie on the ground in a sorry state.
His eyes were filled with fear.
The moment Xuan Tu appeared before him, he knew that his plan had been exposed.
Xuan Tu's ability to return alive from the spatial rift must mean he's already suspicious of him.
After all, he had personally crafted the teleportation artifact.
Having followed Xuantu for so many years, he knew that Xuantu was the type of person who would rather kill the innocent than let the guilty go free, so he was doomed this time!
However, death is not the most terrifying thing; the most terrifying thing is to be worse off than dead.
Lu Ze glanced at the surging seawater below and knew that it contained a giant sea monster raised by Xuan Tu.
The sea monster resembles a giant eyeball, with its body covered in thick, long tentacles, making it an extremely terrifying and horrifying creature.
He wriggled backward, trying to get away from the well opening, but then an invisible force bound his body, pulling him above the well opening and leaving him suspended in mid-air.
Blood flowed from his body and fell into the sea, instantly arousing the monster inside.
Thick, long, pillar-like red tentacles shot out like lightning.
Death was imminent.
Lu Ze was so shocked that his eyes bulged out of their sockets.
Xuan Tu stood at the edge of the well, with one foot dangling in the air, seemingly not worried about falling in at all.
Seeing the terrified expression on Lu Ze's face, he revealed a smile of interest.
Just as the red tentacles were about to wrap around Lu Ze, Xuan Tu leisurely controlled him to rise slightly, allowing him to narrowly avoid them.
Having narrowly escaped death, Lu Ze never wanted to experience that kind of terror again.
"Lord, I'm sorry, I was wrong. I shouldn't have tampered with the teleporter. I'll tell you whatever you want to know, I just beg you to give me a quick death..."
Lu Ze pleaded urgently, tears streaming down his face.
Xuan Tu: "But you know, I already know everything, so what do you suggest we do?"
He had already read Lu Ze's memories before he captured him and knew that he was sent by the Lou family, so why was there any need to ask him?
The only remaining value of this person is that he died a worthy death, which made him happy.
Under Lu Ze's horrified gaze, Xuan Tu flicked his finger, and a spatial blade flew over, slicing off a piece of flesh from his body.
The piece of flesh was as thin as paper, like a blood-stained butterfly with broken wings, and it floated down lightly.
The monster's tentacles extended, covered with countless suckers, which easily sucked up the pieces of meat and devoured them.
But such a small amount of meat is far from enough to even fill a tooth gap.
The monster's tentacles slapped the water's surface in dissatisfaction, splashing water high into the air.
Xuan Tu said, as if soothing a noisy child, "Don't worry, this whole piece of meat is yours."
As he spoke, he cut another piece of flesh from Lu Ze's body.
Lu Ze screamed repeatedly, wishing he could die immediately.
However, he couldn't even commit suicide.
He could only endure the torture of being slowly sliced to death while fully conscious.
He knew that this was Xuan Tu retaliating against him for tampering with the teleportation artifact and sending him into the spatial rift.
The pain he suffered in the spatial rift will be repaid to him a thousandfold!
After an unknown amount of time, Lu Ze, who had been suspended in mid-air, had become nothing more than a skeleton.
All the flesh on his body had been removed.
Only a head remained.
And he is still alive.
Because Xuan Tu used his healing powers on him, he was not allowed to die halfway through.
Human emotions have a threshold; when fear and pain exceed this threshold—
Lu Ze, who didn't die, went mad.
"Hahahahaha..."
"Mommy, I'm hiding! Come find me!"
"Hey, who are you? Big brother, have you seen my mom before?"
Lu Ze tilted his head and looked at Xuan Tu with a childlike, innocent expression on his face.
There was clearly no need to torture Lu Ze any further.
Xuan Tu's final spatial blade pierced his brow.
At this point, Lu Ze was completely free.
His spatial rune ability was also taken away by Xuan Tu.
A familiar feeling of weakness washed over me, and my body felt empty for a moment, all my superpowers vanished.
Xuan Tu turned and left, taking the elevator powered by crystal cores back to the 48th floor.
As soon as he came out of the elevator, Xiaoming came looking for him.
"Xiao Guang, Xiao Li made lots of delicious food, come quick!"
After delivering the message, he rushed off in a flurry.
Xuan Tu didn't go there immediately. Instead, he went back to the courtyard to take a bath before following the scent.
On the grassy bank of the Milk River, a square low table was covered with food.
Xiao Ming was already eating heartily, not even lifting his head.
Xin Sui smiled and greeted Xuan Tu, "You're here? Please have a seat."
Xuan Tu was momentarily blinded by her smile.
This bright and pure smile was exactly the same as the smile on Xiao Xin Sui's face in his memory.
Back then, she was smiling at the sunlight, the stream, and the shrimp. Now, she can smile so without any resentment at herself, who has killed her so many times.
Who knows what they're up to now?
However, as long as she doesn't set her sights on Xiaoming, let her be.
