As Jiang Yuan and Liu Zhaodi watched the group of people file out, the entire island in the lake became much quieter.
"You're the slut, your whole family are sluts!" Liu Zhaodi cursed back fiercely as she watched Wan Jin walk away.
"Swearing won't vent my anger; I have to take action!" A nameless fire ignited in Jiang Yuan's heart. He helped Liu Zhaodi put on the black robe he had prepared beforehand and instructed her again, "Remember, once inside, act according to the situation. The Holy Spirit Beasts are rather stupid; you can easily fool them!"
"Okay!" Liu Zhaodi sensed a slight change in Jiang Yuan's attitude. She couldn't help but wonder if men all had masochistic tendencies. She was usually so obedient, but in return, she was met with estrangement. Today, he first forcibly kissed her and then bit her, but Jiang Yuan was actually being nicer to her.
"Forget it, you're just as clumsy. You should just stay quiet the whole time! I can do it myself!"
Jiang Yuan took out a black robe and covered himself with it before calmly stepping into the Holy Spirit stronghold.
This Holy Spirit stronghold was very large. Following Liu Zhaodi's guidance, Jiang Yuan arrived at a side hall, which was guarded by only one man in black robes.
"Why are you back so soon?"
As soon as Jiang Yuan and Liu Zhaodi stepped into the side hall, the black-robed man sitting on the array inside asked them a question.
The moment the two entered, they realized there was only one person in the side hall, so they didn't intend to hold back.
Mind control!
"A hundredfold stealth kill!"
The two acted like partners who had worked together for many years. Liu Zhaodi used her mind control technique, which had even tricked Jiang Yuan twice. The man in black robes was caught off guard and instantly fell for it. In his dazed state, Jiang Yuan thrust his spear toward his head.
This shot was imbued with the power of a ninth-tier energy gathering technique, and Jiang Yuan also activated triple shackles. It can be said to be a fusion technique of divine energy and ancient martial arts power. Divine energy is the main force for explosive power, while ancient martial arts is the main force for power. The two complement each other, and the next shot pierced the head of the black-robed man.
The man in black robes—is dead!
A golden flash appeared, and at the same time, a blood-red stone also appeared.
The black-robed man who fell never understood how he died, but it was a good thing for him, as he was able to end his life without realizing it and avoid the pain of death.
With a loud bang, the death of the black-robed man made it impossible for it to control its transformation. Its original form was revealed in the side hall, which was a holy spirit beast comparable in size to a lion.
"I'll collect the spoils first, then I'll share them with you!" Jiang Yuan glanced at Liu Zhaodi, and after she nodded, he collected the ninth-tier crystal core and the blood-red stone that had been dropped. In the end, he didn't even leave the corpse of the Holy Spirit Beast behind, and put it directly into his personal space.
Devouring requires fresh corpses, and such corpses are the best choice.
"The next lone one is in the backyard!"
Liu Zhaodi reported the situation again: the bloodstains had not been cleaned up, and they were destined not to stay for long, as the enemy would return soon, and they could only defeat them one by one.
"Go quickly!"
The two used the same method to kill three black-robed men in succession. Two of the black-robed men contributed crystal cores, and all three men also had blood-red stones appear. These blood-red stones had the same name: Beast Source.
Jiang Yuan remembered the Beast Source; it was the item dropped by the first heavily injured Holy Spirit Beast he killed. He didn't expect that four Beast Sources would drop in a row. Although he didn't know the specific function of this item, that didn't stop him from collecting it.
"Jiang Yuan, my clone has been captured!"
Suddenly, Liu Zhaodi's expression turned grim. She continued, "They're on their way back now and should be back in about three minutes."
"How many more men in black robes are there here?" Jiang Yuan immediately asked.
"Four of them, all concentrated in the main hall!" Liu Zhaodi had already located their positions, but she still worriedly said, "We'd better retreat. All four of them are at the ninth level. If they try to launch a sneak attack again, we have no chance of winning!"
"We have a chance of winning, but I'll have to trouble you a little!"
Jiang Yuan looked at Liu Zhaodi with a smile, and Liu Zhaodi knew that nothing good ever came of his gaze whenever he looked at her like that.
The main hall's door was violently kicked open, and a man in black robes escorted the staggering Liu Zhaodi inside.
"You bunch of good-for-nothings are still here!" Jiang Yuan pushed Liu Zhaodi toward the center of the main hall.
The other four were affected by the commotion and turned their attention to it, but the first thing that caught their eye was Liu Zhaodi. Wan Jin had shown them what their target looked like before, and it was this woman in front of them.
"Isn't this the human woman Your Highness is looking for?"
"It really is exactly the same!"
A hint of disdain arose in the hearts of the four. With such a level of skill, how dare they fight against their prince? They were truly courting death.
"His Highness has already crippled this woman's cultivation, but she still has many accomplices. Two of you go and help His Highness! And two more of you help me take this woman to a safe place and lock her up!" Jiang Yuan shouted almost in a commanding tone.
Upon hearing that it was His Highness's order, the man in black robes immediately became terrified and had no doubts. After all, this man had brought the human woman here, so he must have been authorized by His Highness.
"You two go provide support, I'll go with Wolf to lock this woman up!"
Soon, the four men in black robes divided the tasks. Two of them led Liu Zhaodi to the place of imprisonment, one in front and one behind. Moreover, because Jiang Yuan had specifically instructed His Highness to cripple Liu Zhaodi's cultivation, the two men were extremely relaxed.
"Exposing your back to the enemy is not a good habit!"
Jiang Yuan coldly stared at the black-robed man walking ahead who was completely unprepared. His Five Elements Bloodline silently activated, and his powerful spear, like a dragon emerging from the sea, stabbed towards the back of the man behind him. However, at that moment, Liu Zhaodi also struck a deadly blow, using her mind to control the person in front of her. Her elven bloodline surged, and countless leaf blades slashed across the body of the person she controlled.
In an instant, both men in black robes were seriously injured. Because their attacks were spread out, neither of them managed to kill the other instantly. The two men in black robes immediately activated their talents to prepare for a counterattack, but little did they know that in Jiang Yuan's eyes, such injuries meant certain death.
