Seeing Yuwen Xiu hesitate, the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor, being an old and shrewd man, understood what Yuwen Xiu was worried about. He spoke in a hoarse voice, "Little guy, don't worry. The person I want you to kill has no background. The reason I'm using you is just to help the junior put on a show. With your intelligence, you should understand my intentions."
acting?
Yuwen Xiu's heart skipped a beat, and he immediately thought of the scene he saw in the outer hall of the auction today. He remembered that there were three women he really liked who were crying and begging to recognize that guy named Fufeng. And if he remembered correctly, there was another junior brother next to those three women.
Upon realizing this, Yuwen Xiu's mind suddenly cleared. It seemed that this powerful Spirit Venerable was the ancestor of that junior brother's family. Although he didn't know what the story was between these people, it was obvious that the appearance of the senior brother Fu Feng had affected that junior brother's pursuit of the senior sister, so he wanted to remove this obstacle.
Judging from the actions of this powerful Spirit Venerable who approached him, this junior brother probably not only wanted his senior brother dead, but also wanted to use this matter to gain favor with his three senior sisters. That's why he wanted to use him to kill someone and stage a good show of "eliminating demons and protecting the righteous path to avenge his brother, and being angry for the sake of a beauty".
Damn, does it have to be so tacky?
After figuring out the reasons, Yuwen Xiu was speechless. This kind of hypocritical behavior was disgusting. They had to use all sorts of high-sounding tricks to get a woman. Unlike the people of the demonic path, who were just being realistic. If they saw someone they liked, they would just snatch them away. If someone was disobedient, they would tame them into a furnace. Why would they make things so complicated?
Of course, Yuwen Xiu only dared to complain in his heart; he didn't dare to say a word out loud. Instead, he had to go along with the other party's wishes and say, "Oh, I see. I understand what to do! Please rest assured, senior, I will definitely cooperate well and help you play this role well!"
Yuwen Xiu knew perfectly well that whether he was willing or not, he had no choice, because this old monster hadn't come to discuss things with him. The reason he explained the reason to him was just to get him to cooperate and make the act more convincing.
He had no doubt that if he dared not agree, or even showed the slightest reluctance, the old monster would use some kind of soul-controlling technique on him, putting on a puppet show.
Thinking of this, Yuwen Xiu felt a chill run down his spine, fearing that the old monster might have some doubts about him. He grinned sinisterly and said, "Senior, to be honest, I really wanted to kill this Fu Feng during the auction. So I am happy to serve you. Being able to kill such a genius would be a great pleasure for me!"
"It's good that you have this awareness, which saves me the trouble of casting a curse on you."
"The Blood Demon Ancestor said with satisfaction."
Yuwen Xiu wore a stiff smile, but felt a chill run down his spine. This old bastard was definitely up to no good!
"You want to kill me?"
Several miles behind, a gaze pierced through the thick clouds, coldly watching the people on the ship; it was none other than Chi Yuan.
After leaving the auction house, he did not leave immediately, but hid in the shadows, waiting for a suitable opportunity to kill Ye Chen.
Coincidentally, no sooner had Chi Yuan left than Ye Chen followed him out of the auction house and entered a deserted alley next to it alone.
This was clearly a golden opportunity to kill Ye Chen. Chi Yuan didn't want to miss it while hesitating, so he decisively used the ninth-level Spirit Venerable experience card, intending to kill Ye Chen with lightning speed.
However, to Chi Yuan's surprise, he had just used up his ninth-tier Spirit Venerable experience card and hadn't even had a chance to make a move when he sensed a powerful aura emanating from Ye Chen, who then instantly disappeared right under his nose.
This put Chi Yuan in an awkward situation, because once the Ninth-Order Spirit Venerable Experience Card was used, it could not be stopped. His only choice was to make a move within the limited two quarters of an hour, otherwise he would never have another chance after the time was up.
Fortunately, after acquiring the cultivation level of a ninth-tier Spirit Venerable, Chi Yuan's abilities also increased significantly. His divine soul power was enough to cover an area of thousands of miles, so he immediately locked onto Ye Chen's location and used spatial teleportation to track him down.
"This demon has indeed harbored the intention to harm me, and he wants to use the methods from my previous life to trick me again."
Chi Yuan's gaze was cold. He was not surprised that Ye Chen wanted to harm him, but what surprised him was that the divine soul body possessing Ye Chen's body had actually reached the level of a high-level Spirit Venerable.
This means that even if Ye Chen is completely unprepared and not possessed, he probably wouldn't be able to kill Ye Chen with a single blow through a sneak attack.
"It seems we have no choice but to kill him outright. We must strike first and catch him off guard!"
A sharp glint flashed in Chi Yuan's eyes. His figure suddenly disappeared from the clouds and appeared above Yuwen Xiu's ship in an instant. Then, he slammed his right palm down. The vast spiritual power that had been waiting to be unleashed instantly condensed into a giant spiritual palm, which, with overwhelming force, swiftly and like lightning, bombarded the black mist on the ship.
"not good?!"
Within the black mist, the Blood Demon Saint Ancestor, who was possessing Ye Chen, suddenly felt a sense of crisis, as if a thorn was sticking out of his back. Almost the instant the sense of crisis struck, he turned around and struck out with a palm.
boom!
The two palm prints collided with a deafening roar, like meteorites crashing together. However, the hastily unleashed palm strike of the Blood Demon Ancestor was unable to withstand it for even a moment before being crushed to pieces by Chi Yuan's powerful attack.
"Blood Demon Shield!"
Seeing the giant palm of spiritual energy continuing to strike, and with no way to avoid it, the Blood Demon Ancestor had no choice but to activate a blood shield to block it in front of him.
boom!
The giant palm of spiritual energy slammed down like a massive laser beam. Yuwen Xiu and his group of Spirit King guards on the ship were blasted into dust without even uttering a sound.
Ye Chen, possessed by the Blood Demon Ancestor, managed to withstand much damage with the Blood Demon Shield, but he still suffered a heavy blow and was slammed into the ground by a palm strike, creating a circular crater over a hundred feet deep.
"You bastard!"
Blood Demon Ancestor cursed angrily, but had no time to be angry. He hurriedly used his spatial power to support Ye Chen's severely injured soul body and control Ye Chen's body to teleport away from the spot.
"Hmph, you're pretty fast."
Chi Yuan's eyes flashed with a cold light. He was about to give chase when he suddenly noticed a golden Qiankun bag, shimmering with a hazy golden light, floating in the original location of the ship.
Upon seeing this, Chi Yuan's eyes showed a strange light. The palm strike just now had even severely injured Ye Chen's soul body, yet this Qiankun bag seemed to be completely unharmed after such an attack.
Chi Yuan immediately took it into his hand, wiped away the divine soul imprint on it in the blink of an eye, and then put it away and chased after Ye Chen in the direction he had fled.
