Hei Tian's eyes turned when he heard this, and seeing Li Yu's ashen face, he immediately smiled sinisterly, "It's amazing that the Jade Palace Sword Master still remembers my voice."
As the words fell, Heitian's face suddenly melted, and his flesh and blood squirmed, transforming into the face of a pale, beardless, feminine young man.
When Li Yu saw this face, his eyelids twitched violently, and murderous intent surged. Without saying a word, he formed a sword gesture with both hands. The flying sword hummed softly, penetrated the restriction in the blink of an eye, and stabbed at the feminine young man's eyebrows.
Seeing this, the feminine young man not only did not hide, but instead raised his head to meet the flying sword, allowing it to pass through his forehead.
Bang!
The power of this sword caused Heitian's body to explode into a bloody mist, and along with the explosion, there was a hoarse laugh.
“Hahaha…Thank you, Jade Palace Sword Master, for rescuing me!”
Li Yu suddenly came to his senses when he heard this. He was so angry that he lost his mind and let this old ghost take advantage of him again, and he escaped!
Hatred and guilt were rising in his heart, and his Dao heart was showing signs of cracking.
At this moment, a clear and quiet voice sounded in his ears, inexplicably calming the anger in his heart.
"Friend Li, please be patient."
Li Yu came out of her emotions, looked up at Xiang Sheng, and felt ashamed when she saw that she had no intention of blaming her.
He was not a dull person, and he had realized at this moment that Xiang Sheng had not been targeting him before, but had deliberately set up a trap to lure the Pantheon into taking action.
However, his impulsive sword strike ruined the opponent's painstakingly prepared plan.
Thinking of this, Li Yu's face became more and more guilty, and he sighed bitterly: "Fellow Daoist Xiang, I am really sorry."
"Fellow Daoist Li, there's no need to blame yourself. Even if you didn't take action, I believe that person would have found a way to escape the ban."
Xiang Sheng looked up at the sky and said calmly, "If you really feel bad about this, why not tell me who that person is?"
Li Yu's eyes flashed with hatred upon hearing this, and he said in a deep voice, "He is the Third Hall Master of the Pantheon, the Thousand-Faced Old Ghost. He is extremely skilled in disguise and concealment. Countless Xizhou geniuses have died at his hands over the years!"
At this point, Li Yu was silent for a moment, then said in a low voice, "My Taoist partner and two children were all killed by this man."
When Xiang Sheng heard this, he couldn't help but look at Li Yu again, and he understood.
No wonder he became so uncharacteristically impatient when he saw the Thousand Faces Palace Master. It turned out that they had a deep blood feud.
Li Yu was still immersed in regret. The more he thought about it, the more unwilling he became. He couldn't help but sigh: "The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost is extremely difficult to kill. Daoist Fellow's ambush and killing today was originally a great opportunity, but it was all because of me..."
He was halfway through his words when he suddenly felt something and looked up at the sky.
The clouds rolled, outlining a human face. That face was not the feminine young man from before, but the face of an old man.
However, Li Yu, who was very familiar with blood feuds, recognized him at a glance. This person was none other than the Thousand-Faced Old Ghost!
The monks of the Pantheon are all extremely cautious in their actions, and the Thousand-Faced Old Ghost is the best among them. He always kills people by calculation, and once his sneak attack is blocked, he will retreat immediately. Why did he change his temper this time and turn back?
He didn't hesitate for long before he heard the Thousand-Faced Old Ghost speak gloomily, "Do you really want to fight to the death?"
Li Yu was stunned when these words came out, and then he turned his head sharply to look at Xiang Sheng.
He immediately recalled that Xiang Sheng had been looking up at the sky ever since the old ghost ran away.
Was this also her doing? Was it not that the Thousand-Faced Old Ghost was unwilling to leave, but that she had trapped him in some way?
This Xiang Sheng actually calculated the actions of the Pantheon exactly?
An unprecedented strange feeling arose in Li Yu's heart.
Facing the Pantheon, he often felt powerless. This was because for a long time, the Pantheon had been the only one plotting against them. They had tried to plot against the Pantheon, but they had repeatedly failed and were allowed to escape.
When it comes to Xiang Sheng, this unwritten rule seems to be broken?
Xiang Sheng naturally had no idea that Li Yu would have so many thoughts in this moment.
Facing the threat from the Thousand-Faced Old Ghost, she raised her lips in a sarcastic arc: "Are you worthy of this?"
The world suddenly became quiet.
The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost stared at the slender figure on the ground with cold eyes and fell into deep silence.
Since he became the master of the third hall, he has encountered at least eight hundred battles, but he has never seen such an arrogant enemy.
The Thousand-Faced Old Ghost was also depressed.
The Third Hall Master has always been in charge of all matters related to suppressing the forbidden areas of Dongzhou.
In the hands of the previous leaders, Dongzhou had always been peaceful and nothing went wrong. Why did it get out of control when it came into his hands?
He sent a message directly to Heitian, ordering him to go to Dongzhou to cut the Gordian knot and quickly eliminate the source of the out-of-control situation. However, he did not expect that within two days, he would receive a message for help from Heitian.
He couldn't figure out the secret, and immediately realized that there was something fishy. If he continued to send people, they would most likely never return.
To be on the safe side, he directly used his trump card, his spirit left his body, and quietly descended into Dongzhou through the gap in the Dongzhou Heavenly Dao that the Pantheon had opened long ago.
For a temple master like Heitian who climbed up from the bottom of the Pantheon, the Pantheon had already planted devices in his soul. Even if he gave up his own cultivation, he could still be easily possessed by the Pantheon.
Just after he took control of Heitian's body, he saw the scene of Xiang Sheng and Li Yu fighting. Seeing that Xiang Sheng was seriously injured and was trying his best to kill Li Yu, he was reluctant to miss such a once-in-a-lifetime opportunity, so he attacked directly without thinking too much.
This move immediately fell into the other party's calculations.
He felt something was wrong and immediately backed out.
Fortunately, Li Yu was a very sentimental person. When he changed his face to look like his son's, he immediately became furious and broke the restriction, allowing him to escape back to the rules of heaven.
