Chapter 1046 None of them are human
Xiang Yueqi paused for a moment, then raised her chin and smiled gently: "It's alright, I can afford this fine."
Besides, while electrofishing is wrong, he clearly electrocuted a strange beast, so Vice Minister Xiao should probably give him some discounts.
Qi Yingxuan: "..." This damn rich man!
Seeing that his henchmen had been wiped out in less than a round, Black Dragon was so angry that he wanted to tear everyone present to pieces!
Knowing that you have to pick the softest persimmon to squeeze, they immediately targeted the only girl present, Ye Wanxi.
Its massive body thrashed about, ready to pounce and engulf her, strangling her mercilessly.
Those who had already noticed the black dragon's movements narrowed their eyes, a murderous intent flashing across them simultaneously.
Before anyone could react, Jiang Lin had already rushed out, leaving behind the words, "Leave that dragon to me."
"Tsk, this guy..." Qi Yingxuan, who was a step behind Jiang Lin, complained unhappily, but ultimately respected Jiang Lin's wishes and chose to stand by and not interfere.
“This black dragon is no match for the fourth brother. The second brother will stay here and keep watch, just in case. We’ll go help our eldest brother.”
Before Jun Wuduan could speak, Ye Wanxi had already rushed to Fengtian Domain.
While Jiang Lin was locked in a fierce battle with the Black Dragon, Feng Tianyu had already caught up with the Ghost Gate, which had opened up to the size of a hula hoop.
However, when he was about to deal with the gate of hell and seal it before it opened, he discovered that the gate of hell... was actually an illusion!
Feng Tianyu's expression changed slightly as he searched for the true Ghost Gate around the black hole.
It took a lot of effort and time to determine the true direction of the Ghost Gate. Just as they were about to make their move, they felt a huge suction force coming from the edge of the black hole.
Even though Feng Tianyu noticed the anomaly and reacted quickly, he still couldn't escape being sucked into it.
When Ye Wanxi arrived, she witnessed this scene. Without thinking, she grabbed Feng Tianyu's clothes and was sucked in along with him.
In the blink of an eye, the two entered another otherworldly space, which was pitch black and they couldn't even see each other's faces clearly.
Just as Ye Wanxi and her companion regained their footing, they vaguely saw a dark shadow darting up from behind them.
The two were startled and immediately retaliated.
A scream rang out, and the dark figure seemed to fall into darkness, swallowed by something, and vanished without a trace.
Feng Tianyu breathed a slight sigh of relief, then grasped Ye Wanxi's hand, frowning as he asked, "Why did you come in too?"
Ye Wanxi grasped Feng Tianyu's hand back, her anxious heart calming down slightly, and she breathed a sigh of relief: "I saw you being sucked into this black hole from afar, and I was so anxious that I didn't think much about it."
Feeling somewhat guilty after speaking, he quickly changed the subject: "Where is this place? Isn't that black hole the Gate of Hell?"
"It should just be a smokescreen, but it's so cleverly designed that somewhere behind this black hole must be connected to the real Gate of Hell. The other party reflected the scene at the Gate of Hell onto the black hole and arranged some yin energy similar to that when the Gate of Hell is open, which can easily lead people to misunderstand."
Once they get close to this black hole, they will be sucked in.
The only way to leave this place is probably to find the real Ghost Gate as soon as possible and destroy it. Otherwise, not only will they be unable to close the Ghost Gate and thwart the other party's ulterior motives, but they themselves will likely become stepping stones for the other party.
After listening to his explanation, Ye Wanxi felt that the arrangement of the black hole was very familiar.
"Mirror image, it's him!"
The things she and her senior brother encountered when they accidentally entered the Yin-Yang Mirror that day were not much different from what happened today.
The person who orchestrated everything behind the scenes is about to be revealed.
What exactly does he want to do?
Feng Tianyu's face was ashen. There was no light in this place, and the slightest carelessness could lead to an attack.
He simply closed his eyes and used his other senses to confirm the location of others.
Shortly after the first attack, four strange noises came from several different directions.
Gleaming daggers, sharp longswords, massive axes, and sturdy spears all thrust towards the two men in an instant.
Feng Tianyu and Ye Wanxi acted simultaneously, each intercepting two weapons and simultaneously kicking them away, disarming the weapon-wielders.
Several more screams rang out, and the group disappeared again.
But the very next second after they disappeared, a dense rain of arrows shot towards the two of them.
Given their current position, if they didn't dodge, this rain of arrows would be enough to turn them into pincushions, leaving not even a corpse behind.
Feng Tianyu's eyes narrowed slightly. With a flick of his wrist, he swung the intercepted spear, transforming it into a massive circular shield.
Thud, thud... One arrow after another entered the encirclement only to be shot down by the spears. In no time, layers of arrows piled up at the feet of the two men.
Ye Wanxi wasn't idle either. She used the tip of the dagger to pick up the arrows on the ground, her ears twitching slightly to discern the direction from which the arrows came, and then returned the arrows to their original positions.
More screams rang out in the darkness, and soon the number of arrows flying towards them decreased until they finally stopped.
"Just how many people are hiding in this space?" Ye Wanxi's expression was solemn, her gaze filled with apprehension and wariness as she looked around.
Feng Tianyu remained silent, seemingly waiting for something.
Before long, several figures flew down from above the two men, aiming straight for their heads.
Feng Tianyu seemed to have anticipated their appearance. With a flick of his spear, he pierced through the chests of two men like skewering strings. At the same time, he curled his right hand into a claw and reached for the chest of the only survivor.
With a soft "plop," blood splattered out, but the object Feng Tianyu was looking for was not found in the other person's chest.
"Senior Brother!" Ye Wanxi exclaimed in shock when she saw the blood on Feng Tianyu's hand reflected in the light from the blade. "Are you injured?"
"It's nothing." Feng Tianyu shook his head, shook off the two people hanging from the spear and the corpses in his hands, and said coldly, "They're not human."
"What?"
"These are not human beings; they have bodies, but no hearts."
"No heart?" Ye Wanxi's heart skipped a beat. She thought of Wu, who was the opposite of her. He didn't have flesh and blood that truly belonged to a human, but he had a beating heart.
"So this place really is..."
As soon as Ye Wanxi finished speaking, the spear in Feng Tianyu's hand suddenly flew out in a certain direction in the darkness.
*Pfft—Crack—*
A sound similar to cloth tearing echoed in the space, followed by the sound of glass shattering.
A small crack appeared in the dark space, and light shone through it, illuminating a familiar figure in the corner.
