Chapter 83

If Meng Jiao had heard Zhao Shuo's muttering, she would definitely have scolded him endlessly, and his life would be in danger. What use is the demeanor of a strong person?

Having frightened off Meng Jiao, Zhao Shuo picked up her magical treasure. Gaining a high-level spirit-grade magical treasure was a significant harvest. When Zhao Shuo's attention turned to Bai Jianjia and the other appointed steward, he couldn't help but smile.

Bai Jianjia was quite clever. If it came to the proficiency in using divine abilities or the number of divine abilities she had comprehended, the early-stage Divine Ability Realm Bai Jianjia naturally couldn't match these two major stewards. However, even if you had comprehended many divine abilities, you still needed the magical power to use them.

Thus, the two major stewards met a tragic end. Bai Jianjia moved around the two stewards, and the lightning from the sky fell like rain, continuously bombarding them. The two stewards' faces turned pale; this was no way to bully people. Did she not know how to conserve her magical power consumption?

In just a short while, Bai Jianjia had consumed the equivalent of a hundred years of magical power, but the two of them combined probably didn't have a hundred years' worth of magical power.

Initially, they didn't have the resolve to fight to the death. By the time they wanted to fight, they sadly discovered that their magical power was insufficient to support them in using powerful divine abilities. They could only watch as Bai Jianjia used the ordinary lightning spell to brutally torment them.

Seeing the miserable state of the two stewards, Zhao Shuo couldn't help but smile and said, "Jianjia, do you need my help?"

Bai Jianjia shook her head and said, "I can handle it myself."

As she spoke, Bai Jianjia let out a delicate cry and shouted, "Spatial Chaos Blades!"

The two stewards' faces changed drastically when they heard the name of the divine ability. This was an extremely powerful spatial divine ability, far more formidable than the "Imprisonment" Meng Jiao had used earlier.

Visible spatial cracks appeared, and these cracks were like incredibly sharp knives. In the blink of an eye, the two stewards were torn to pieces by the Spatial Chaos Blades, and even their primordial spirits could not escape.

It was evident that Bai Jianjia was somewhat strained in using such a powerful divine ability with her current strength. However, she managed to use it with her deep magical power and successfully eliminated the two Divine Ability Realm experts.

Seeing Bai Jianjia's pale face, Zhao Shuo couldn't help but feel a pang of pain and said, "Why did you have to push yourself so hard? If I had helped, it would have taken a bit more effort, but we could have worn them down just the same."

Bai Jianjia smiled and said, "After all, they are Divine Ability Realm experts. Letting them die by the Spatial Chaos Blades is fitting for their status."

Zhao Shuo sighed and said, "Unfortunately, my opponent was incredibly cunning. Seeing the situation was unfavorable, he ran away without even retrieving his treasure. I wonder how such a person managed to reach the Divine Ability Realm."

Seeing Zhao Shuo's frustrated expression, Bai Jianjia couldn't help but laugh lightly and said, "You were going to kill them, and they were no match for you. Do you expect them to offer their necks for you to chop off?"

Zhao Shuo thought about it and agreed. Even if it were him, he would have fled in such a situation. Only a fool would stay and wait to die. As for dignity, well, you need to survive first before you can talk about dignity.

After swallowing several potent pills, Bai Jianjia's strength quickly recovered. When the two of them approached the entrance to the cave where the dwarf Li was in seclusion, Zhao Shuo slapped the trembling guide from Qingfeng Mountain, rendering him useless. Whether he could survive on the Death Island, a place full of dangers, was up to his own fate.

Looking at the cave, a thick mist obscured it. Without the guide from Qingfeng Mountain, it would have taken some time to find this place.

Bai Jianjia looked at the mist and said, "This is a maze array set up by the dwarf Li. It's not difficult to break through. Just bombard it until the array's energy is depleted. I believe the maze array in his lair is only symbolic and not very powerful."

Zhao Shuo rubbed his hands and said, "Jing Busu, Jing Bumie, and the others have gone to find Qingyi. Let's see who will succeed first—us in eliminating the dwarf Li or them in rescuing Qingyi."

Bai Jianjia smiled and said, "Although the stewards on the mountain are either dead or fled, and the others are no match, if a few of them decide to fight to the death, the brothers might not be a match. Aren't you worried about them?"

Zhao Shuo said, "There's no need to worry. As the saying goes, when the tree falls, the monkeys scatter. The fate of those stewards is enough to deter the others. I believe few will fight to the death for the dwarf Li. Even if there are, the brothers' combined skills are not without resistance. Besides, each of them has a low-level spirit-grade magical treasure, which greatly enhances their strength. A low-level Law Phase cultivator would be hard-pressed to withstand a few strikes from those treasures."

Nodding, the two looked at each other and then activated their magical treasures. Whether it was the Zhou Tian如意Purple Light Tower or the Dongfang Yiwood Green Dragon Seal, both were top-tier postnatal treasures. Under their bombardment, the maze array collapsed in no time, revealing what lay beyond.

Before them was a vast underground palace, which was extremely dark, perhaps fitting the dwarf Li's psyche.

The two cautiously entered the underground palace. Soon after, a rumbling sound came from behind them, and the entrance was sealed.

On high alert, they soon saw the dwarf Li's small figure sitting on a large chair. His face was full of joy as he laughed and said, "I wondered who dared to intrude on my Qingfeng Mountain. It's you two little brats!"

"Li, you seem to be quite injured," Zhao Shuo said.

The moment Zhao Shuo saw the dwarf Li, he immediately noticed that he was seriously injured. Otherwise, he wouldn't have gone into seclusion to heal as soon as he left the Jiuhua Secret Realm. After all, being pursued by several demon kings, even the dwarf Li would not have come out unscathed.

Zhao Shuo's mention of his injuries only made the dwarf Li furious. He wanted to strangle the two of them on the spot, thinking of how his injuries were all due to Zhao Shuo and Bai Jianjia.

However, the dwarf Li knew his own condition. His injuries were merely suppressed. If they were triggered, it would be troublesome. Therefore, he didn't immediately capture the two of them.

The dwarf Li was waiting for his subordinates. As long as his stewards arrived, dealing with Zhao Shuo and Bai Jianjia would be easy.

Unfortunately, the dwarf Li selectively forgot that he had gone into seclusion as soon as he returned and had forgotten to give his subordinates the spirit pills to replenish their magical power. As a result, the powerful Divine Ability Realm expert was forced to flee by the Law Phase cultivator Zhao Shuo and even lost his life.

Zhao Shuo and Bai Jianjia were somewhat wary of the dwarf Li. They didn't know the extent of his injuries. If they were not too severe, they might really fall to the dwarf Li. Therefore, they didn't make the first move, knowing that once they did, it would be a matter of life and death.

In this state of mutual suspicion, a full incense stick's time passed. Zhao Shuo's lips gradually curved into a smile, and he said, "Jianjia, the dwarf Li is seriously injured this time. Let's make our move."

At this moment, the dwarf Li finally sensed something was wrong. He had sent out a signal, but after so long, he saw no familiar faces. Even a fool would realize something was amiss.

Seeing the shock and confusion on the dwarf Li's face, Zhao Shuo laughed and said, "Dwarf Li, aren't you wondering why your lackeys haven't come?"
