Xie Zhou watched as the black aura that had separated from the city lord's body slowly coalesced and dispersed. Hearing from the system that it possessed the power of all living beings, Xie Zhou felt a bit strange. How could a sealed evil entity possess the aura of the power of all living beings?
Shouldn't the power of all living beings be something that only pure and righteous spiritual beings can comprehend?
No matter how you look at it, this sealed object exudes an aura of evil; how could it possibly have anything to do with righteousness? Xie Zhou frowned slightly as he carefully examined the sealed object.
The ball of gas seemed to sense Xie Zhou's gaze, and its shape changed even faster. Just as it was about to fly towards her, "Whoosh!..." With a faint flame inside, the ball of gas rushed towards Xie Zhou with lightning speed, and a muffled groan came from inside the ball of gas, "Roar... Boom...".
Seeing that the thing was about to rush towards him, Xie Zhou bent down and dodged to the side. The strange thing seemed to know that this move would not hit him, and it stopped abruptly from its forward momentum.
Xie Zhou dodged the dangerous attack, patted his chest, and muttered to himself, "My god, this thing is really fast..."
Before Xie Zhou could even rest for a short while, the sealed object returned with a vengeance, resulting in a comical scene. Xie Zhou had been traversing the heavens and the earth, but the unknown thing behind her kept following her.
The rumbling sound behind her was incessant, and Xie Zhou was getting a little annoyed. Did this thing have a very strong connection with her? No matter where she went, this thing always followed her.
Although Xie Zhou was able to perfectly dodge each attack without getting hurt.
The other survivors who witnessed this scene, including the stewards and the heads of the four major families who were seriously injured, were all astonished. They wondered what kind of sacred object it was, since the thing came from the city lord's body.
This is what troubles Xie Zhou so much, after all, Xie Zhou's strength on their side has long been at its peak, extremely powerful, and they are genuinely afraid of the power Xie Zhou releases.
The onlookers and the forces cultivated by the four major families in the case that had been suppressed were all stunned. Some were dead, some were injured, and a few survivors hid on the side, watching the scene unfold.
The scattered crowd took the opportunity to leave the training ground, while the unconscious city lord lay unresponsive to the side. The steward was also seriously injured, but he was still concerned about the city lord. The remaining members of the city lord's guards...
He still harbored some resentment, so he shouted, "The city lord's guards, assemble! Protect the city lord!"
The steward was worried that the family heads might launch another surprise attack, since the remaining forces still outnumbered their guards. The guards lined up and surrounded the city lord and the steward.
The steward was checking the city lord's injuries, but the city lord had no wounds and was lying on the ground with his eyes closed. The steward had no choice but to carry the city lord back to the city lord's mansion and close the gate tightly.
Now that this has happened, the family heads are terrified and extremely flustered. The city lord who just caused the riot was a complete stranger to them, and that terrifying aura was still fresh in their minds. So they led their men and slunk away.
Now, the scene became much quieter, with only Xie Zhou and that unknown thing left to fight.
"System, can't you get rid of this thing? Why does it always follow me, and when I attack it, it absorbs my attacks?"
The system was also in a dilemma. After the two sides caught up, the system also detected what this thing was.
Then he told Xie Zhou, "There is a strange little beast living in this Dongxi. This little beast is not yet mature, but it may be influenced by the instinct of the sealing wood, so it is a bit naughty. This time it has taken you as another target."
"Hmm, you said there's a small beast inside that thing, but I still can't see it. So how do we make it reveal its true form?"
"Why not try the power of all living beings?"
This isn't a solution, even though Xie Zhou is full of energy today. He just can't get the words out of his mouth, and following her around like this is just too annoying.
Seeing that every attack he launched missed, Xie Zhou was filled with rage. He had no choice but to try using the power of all living beings. After all, the system had detected the power of all living beings in the sealed object's body. Since there was some connection, the one who tied the knot must untie it.
Xie Zhou then increased his speed, and several afterimages flashed through the air, followed by a dark mass that maintained a certain distance.
There was an obstacle in front of him, and Xie Zhou suddenly stopped. The dark mass, however, did not slow down and slammed into the wall. Xie Zhou then raised his hands.
A great deal of light emanated from her palms; that was the power of all living beings. This power controlled the energy mass, transforming it into several chains that bound it.
Soon, the cloud of gas shrank, revealing its true form. Just as the system had described, a small beast with shiny black fur appeared, its appearance indescribable, resembling a strange creature.
"Ha ha……"
Xie Zhou then picked it up and said, "So this is what you are. Tell me quickly, how do you possess the power of all living beings? What exactly are you?"
The little beast bared its teeth, looking both cute and fierce, which made Xie Zhou chuckle. He hadn't realized that this thing could bewitch people's minds.
