Swish swish——
A series of black mists followed, but fortunately, all of them possessed fire-based spiritual techniques.
"Hahaha, you think that just because you've trapped me, I can't deal with you? How naive."
Ji Rufeng's gaze towards Ji Jiuying and the others was as if it were poisoned. Suddenly, his eyes sharpened, and he condensed a chilling, sinister power in his hand, muttering a few words.
Swish swish——
A row of assassins, their entire bodies wrapped in black cloth except for their eyes, appeared behind the old man.
Ji Jiuying and the others narrowed their eyes slightly, their red lips parting slightly; "So this is what assassins are like?"
Ye Qingchen narrowed his eyes. Had Ji Rufeng been possessed? He had actually raised so many assassins.
At Ji Rufeng's command, about five hundred assassins launched an attack on Ji Jiuying and her group.
Even being burned by fire couldn't stop their reckless pace.
Boom boom—
Black and red flames collided repeatedly in the air.
Soon, the air was thick with the stench of blood. The bright red blood and the mangled corpses made the place even more eerie.
However, the black mist and the assassins came in an endless stream, like a tide.
"Xiao Jiu, we can't kill them all at this rate. We must eliminate the source first," Feng Che said.
"Hmm~ Qingchen, be careful."
After speaking, Ji Jiuying nodded to Feng Che, then glanced at Ji Rufeng who was still casting a spell. Feng Che then leaped up and launched an attack on Ji Rufeng.
Taking advantage of the opportunity, Ji Jiuying flashed behind Ji Rufeng and slapped Ji Rufeng's head with her right hand, using the Soul Searching Technique. In an instant, fragments of Ji Rufeng's and the old man's memories surged forth like a tide.
The old man and Feng Che were both shocked! Soul Searching Technique! They never expected that someone in this world would practice Soul Searching Technique!
After a short while, Ji Jiuying released Ji Rufeng. So that's how it is! The Feng family is truly disgusting.
Ji Rufeng lay on the ground, her mind in turmoil. When she came to her senses, she realized that he was not mentally impaired. This meant that the soul-searching technique she cultivated was definitely a legitimate, divine-level soul-searching technique, not the incomplete and evil technique he cultivated!
What is this girl's true identity? How can she possess so many life-saving skills and spirit pets? And why is she protected by so many powerful figures?
Ji Jiuying used her soul technique to extract the old guy from Ji Rufeng's body, and then used the Immortal Binding Rope to bind the old guy—or rather, to bind a black figure.
Ji Rufeng collapsed to the ground.
By this time, Ye Qingchen and Lian Qingcheng had almost killed off all the assassins.
Ji Rufeng sensed something, and the greed in his eyes intensified. "Now I'm a little curious about who you really are? How come you can cultivate a god-level soul technique?"
"Since you're so eager to know, then go ask the King of Hell!" Ji Jiuying sneered, conjuring up Nine Heavens Profound Fire in her hand and attacking the dark figure on the ground.
Unexpectedly, it all came to nothing!
Ji Jiuying's eyes turned cold as she saw two black-clad men with the strength of a Spirit Venerable pulling the old man on the ground aside.
"Third Elder!"
The compasses on the two men in black emitted a dazzling red light, pointing towards Ji Jiuying. Ji Jiuying and Feng Che exchanged a glance, and a bad premonition spread in their hearts.
The shadowy figure suddenly let out a sinister laugh, "So, you're that wretched girl. It's all so easy to get you."
"You two go up and capture that wretched girl alive!" the old man ordered the two behind him.
The two black-clad Spirit Venerables headed straight for Ji Jiuying, but were blocked by Feng Che. Instantly, the two Spirit Venerables, Feng Che, and Ye Qingchen became entangled.
"Hehehe, confidence is a good thing, but arrogance will bring you big trouble!" Ji Jiuying drawled out the last syllable.
With her eyes slightly narrowed, she gently raised her hand, and before the old man could react, a slender little hand grabbed his throat tightly and lifted him up.
The old man opened his eyes wide, his body twisting and turning in the air as he tried to break free from her grasp, but Ji Jiuying's hands, bound by her soul power, remained motionless.
The old man narrowed his eyes, a calculating glint in them, and slowly extended the black mist toward Ji Jiuying's hand.
Seeing this, Ji Jiuying released Xiao Huang'er. A phoenix fire surrounded Ji Jiuying, preventing the black mist from getting close.
puff--
The old man spat out a mouthful of black blood.
Ji Jiuying once again condensed a ball of Nine Heavens Profound Fire, and was about to launch an attack on him when a Spirit Venerable's spiritual power attacked her from behind.
"Little Jiu, be careful!" Ye Qingchen shouted.
Ji Jiuying suddenly turned around and used the old man's body to block the spiritual energy. The old man spat out another mouthful of blood, and Ji Jiuying disgustedly threw him to the ground.
"You wretched girl, how dare you treat this old man like this! When the main family finds out, you will face endless slaughter." The old man stared at Ji Jiuying with a sinister look and said.
Ji Jiuying toyed with the Nine Heavens Profound Fire in her hand and smiled coldly; "It's really not good for others to know about this, so the three of you can only give up your lives here today."
With a gentle wave of his hand, the Nine Heavens Mystic Fire roared and instantly ignited in the old man's soul. Engulfed in flames, the old man was reduced to ashes before he could even cry for help.
"Third Elder!"
The two men in black gasped in alarm. They hadn't expected the young lady, who had grown up on this low-level continent where spiritual energy was scarce, to be so powerful. However, capturing her was their mission; otherwise, they would die anyway.
After confirming the old man's death, Ji Jiuying also joined the battle.
Seeing this, Feng Che no longer concealed himself and directly unleashed his greatsword, using his signature move.
The two men in black looked on incredulously.
"Second Young Master, how could you betray the Feng family?"
The man in black never expected that the second young master, who had been traveling the world for ten years, would appear on this lowly continent and even lurk beside the young lady to protect her.
"Betray the Feng family? Heh heh heh, is protecting my niece a betrayal of the Feng family?" Feng Che sneered.
"But the Feng family's ancestral precept is to..."
"What kind of bullshit ancestral precepts are these? They're utterly absurd!" Feng Che interrupted the man in black.
Ancestral precepts? Haha~ How utterly ridiculous. Ever since his little sister disappeared, he has no desire to return to the Feng family. Although he has been searching for his little sister under the guise of traveling the world all these years, he has been monitoring every move of the Feng family.
Therefore, he was aware of the matter of tracing the great formation, which is why he followed the Third Elder to various realms.
Unexpectedly, he actually found his younger sister's daughter first.
Upon hearing this, Ye Qingchen recalled that Ji Jiuying had previously used the name Feng Wan. He was certain that the Feng family of Cangyue Kingdom had no connection with Ji Jiuying.
He had also investigated Feng Lan's background; it was very mysterious, just like these other people, including the middle-aged man behind Ji Jiuying.
Which Feng family are they referring to?
Ye Qingchen discovered that more and more mysteries surrounding Ji Jiuying seemed to be emerging!
Before an incense stick had burned, the two men in black were subdued and bound to the ground with the Immortal-Binding Rope.
