Chapter 80

The feeling of being thrown through the air came again, this time landing in the embrace of a gaunt figure, as if colliding with a skeleton.

A medicinal pill with a strong fragrance appeared in his mouth, instantly dissolving and completely healing Xu Xiaoshou's injuries.

He suddenly opened his eyes, drenched in cold sweat, and found himself in the arms of Elder Sang.

"Hehe, brat, didn't I tell you I wouldn't lie? As long as you have a breath left, I can save you!"

Xu Xiaoshou almost punched him. Just a moment ago, he was half in hell.

I don't think you came to save me; you came to kill me!

If you were a bit slower...

At this moment, the situation on the scene changed dramatically.

After throwing Xu Xiaoshou, the masked man, due to the "Jin Zhao Tian Fen," weakened his control over the "Restraining Sword Qi" of the nine elders.

This fleeting opportunity was not missed by anyone!

"Attack!"

The nine old men with gray hair instantly broke free from the sword qi, rushing forward with their spiritual energy surging, causing cracks to appear in the void.

Elder Sang had just finished feeding Xu Xiaoshou the pill when he saw Ye Xiaotian, unable to hold back any longer, tear a large piece of spatial fragment from the sky and smash it toward the masked man.

A large hole appeared in the sky, quickly repairing itself.

But in that instant, Xu Xiaoshou almost got sucked into the spatial fragment, and if not for Elder Sang pulling him back, he would have been gone.

"Stop!" Elder Sang roared.

Xu Xiaoshou was stunned. Wasn't this the best opportunity for a combined attack? Why stop?

And the power of this "Tearing Heaven Hand"...

Xu Xiaoshou swore, this was the most shocking spiritual technique he had ever seen.

No one paid attention to Elder Sang. Ye Xiaotian's "Tearing Heaven Hand" instantly appeared in front of the masked man, smashing down.

Whoosh!

The masked man calmly extended a finger, and this time Xu Xiaoshou saw it clearly—it was a sword intent attached to the finger, looking frail.

However, the next moment, a white light pierced through the spatial fragment, actually penetrating Ye Xiaotian's figure!

The expected splash of blood did not appear; it was just an afterimage!

"Boom!"

The spatial fragment smashed down, completely shattering the void, and a massive black hole formed.

Xu Xiaoshou's jaw almost dropped. Was there any chance of survival?

No!

He suddenly looked up. In his "perception," the masked man who was hit was also an afterimage.

A figure appeared in the sky. Before Ye Xiaotian could steady himself, two fingers had already pierced his throat.

"Ugh!"

Blood spurted, dyeing the ends of Ye Xiaotian's white hair red, and his eyes were full of shock.

The masked man appeared in front of him, sneering.

"Your spatial attribute is good, but your combat awareness is weak. I guessed it..."

He grabbed Ye Xiaotian with his other hand and looked down at the nine elders, who were stunned, and said coldly, "If you move, he dies."

"You..."

One of the elders tried to speak, but the masked man's two fingers sliced through, and an arm instantly fell into the void.

"Even speaking is a problem."

Silence!

At this moment, time seemed to stop. Everyone held their breath, afraid to say a word, fearing that any movement would result in the loss of the Inner Court Dean of Tian Sang Ling Gong.

Xu Xiaoshou's eyes were full of shock. He clenched his fists, feeling his blood boil.

Perhaps this person was a member of some evil organization, but this was the first time he had seen someone who could suppress the entire scene with their own strength.

Grandmaster was already the limit of his current cultivation.

And the nine elders present, he was sure, were all at least at the Grandmaster level.

Including the combat-injured Xiao Qixiu, the hostage Ye Xiaotian, and the Elder Sang holding him, their cultivation was likely even stronger.

Yet, this group of over ten people, working together, could not even scratch the masked man.

This was true strength, this was true recklessness!

As long as your cultivation is high enough, there is no such thing as not being able to enter the Inner Court, no such thing as a veteran innate assassin, all of it is just trash...

"Slap!"

Elder Sang slapped Xu Xiaoshou on the head, pulling him out of his trance.

"What are you thinking, young man!"

"Don't learn from this kind of person, you'll die quickly!"

Xu Xiaoshou: "..."

He "oh"ed, not saying anything more, but a strange belief was taking root in his heart.

Elder Sang sighed. How could he not know what this young man was thinking?

Looking at the masked man, he fell silent.

Indeed, this was a man who had once dominated an era. His mere appearance once again captivated everyone.

"I thought you wouldn't come tonight," said Elder Sang.

"If it wasn't you, you would have taken him," the masked man looked at him.

Elder Sang sighed, "Go, I won't stop you."

The nine elders were immediately anxious, but seeing Ye Xiaotian's pained expression, they couldn't say a word.

Yes, what could they do if they didn't let him go?

Tian Sang Ling Gong was both large and small.

This time, they had mobilized all their forces to catch the person. If they continued to fight, it would damage their foundation.

The masked man clearly had no intention of leaving, holding Ye Xiaotian and saying, "I just want one thing, I won't hurt anyone."

"With me here, not even a blade of grass or a tree from Tian Sang Ling Gong will you take!" Elder Sang was furious.

Xu Xiaoshou suddenly understood. The masked man wanted a sword?

What sword could cause such a commotion, making Tian Sang Ling Gong go to such lengths to protect it?

He was very curious, but this was clearly not the time for him to speak. Xu Xiaoshou naturally knew when to keep quiet and not make jokes.

The masked man laughed lightly, "Do you think you can always guard it?"

"Are you threatening me?" Elder Sang was so angry that his hood almost flew off, "Tian Sang Ling Gong is my second home. If I don't guard it, where will I go?"

Xu Xiaoshou really wanted to ask, "Where is your first home?" but he held back.

Don't be cheeky, don't be reckless!

The masked man said nothing, suddenly looking at Xu Xiaoshou, "Give me this person, and I'll leave."

Xu Xiaoshou: ???

What the heck, aren't you here for the sword? Why are you targeting me?

Is this world crazy? Everyone is after me?

I don't think I'm that great!

"You, are, looking, for, death!"

Elder Sang, like a dragon whose scales were touched, was enraged.

In an instant, white smoke appeared in the air, the void distorted as if burned by high heat.

"Step by step by step!"

The masked man's laugh was eerie, his hoarse voice grinding at the soul.

"Wen Ming, right? Wait for me, I'll come back for you." He sliced through the void with his fingers and disappeared.

Wen Ming?

Xu Xiaoshou was stunned for a second, then nodded frantically.

Yes, yes, yes!

My name is Wen Ming, you must come back for me!

The name is the signal, remember it well, don't forget!

"Even if your name is wrong, I remember your face..."

The lingering voice faded, and Xu Xiaoshou was instantly stunned.

What the heck!

Just remember the name, why remember my face!

"Who is Wen Ming?" Elder Sang looked at him, then asked.

"This is not important!"

Xu Xiaoshou waved his hands, panicking, "Do you know where I can get plastic surgery? I'll be right back!"
