The petite figure belonged to a sixteen or seventeen-year-old girl.
Her looks weren’t exceptionally beautiful, but she was pleasant to look at, with gentle brows and eyes, exuding a quiet girl’s temperant.
She gave off the impression that she would silently record everything you say and execute it ticulously.
She glanced at Jiang Ye, curiously asking, "Do you know ?"
"Young Master." An old man in black behind her stepped forward to remind her of sothing.
"It’s fine." The petite girl waved her hand with a smile, "I’ve already rembered."
"You’re my classmate, right?"
She looked at Jiang Ye, smiling, "I haven’t returned to school for over half a year, almost forgot."
Jiang Ye’s expression remained calm, not speaking.
The petite girl before him was indeed his forr classmate from the ninth class, who had gone missing for over half a year—
Xia Qing!
Back then, she often brought him water.
Jiang Ye rembered her quite well.
But now, upon her reappearance, she almost didn’t recognize Jiang Ye.
"Core mbers of the Divine Concealnt Organization undergo a bizarre ritual, reconstructing the body and acquiring so abilities of the Shadow Race."
"There’s a saying that after successful reconstruction, the body remains, but the consciousness is no longer the sa."
Jiang Ye recalled what Chen Zilu told him: "This ritual is called ’Shell Snatching’ in the ten provinces of the Eastern Domain."
Simply put, it’s like Possession.
Of course, what’s involved is far more complex and evil than an ordinary person can imagine.
Is the current Xia Qing still the forr Xia Qing?
Jiang Ye didn’t know, but he was already prepared not to treat her as a classmate.
"Jiang Ye."
Xia Qing looked at Jiang Ye, smiling, "I rember half a year ago, you were far from the First Break, how did you achieve it so quickly? Seems you had quite a few encounters."
"How about joining us?"
"Beco one of us, and you’ll gain power far stronger than now."
She persuasively said: "You and I both have Original Talent, we should know our limits are quite low."
"Look at , forrly just an average student, now I’ve achieved the First Break."
"It won’t be long before I reach the Second Break."
"Those Martial Arts masters will be under my feet." Xia Qing stood with her hands behind her back, a formidable aura erupted from her body.
Boom!
An almost tangible Martial Arts Qi Spirit surged madly.
But this Martial Arts Qi Spirit wasn’t fierce and domineering like other Martial Arts Masters.
Rather... it carried a hint of sinister, eerie characteristics, making one feel like falling into an ice cave.
Jiang Ye’s face remained calm, looking at her, "How do I join you?"
"Very simple." Xia Qing smiled lightly, spreading her arms, "Share a bed and pillow with , then you’ll know what to do."
"Share a bed and pillow?" Jiang Ye tilted his head, "Is it what I’m thinking?"
"Exactly what you’re thinking." Xia Qing smiled broadly.
"Young Master."
At this mont, the old man in black beside her whispered, "This lad doesn’t intend to join us, he’s secretly activating Star Energy."
"No need for your reminder." Xia Qing snorted coldly, "I’ll show him the gap between us now."
As she finished speaking, her aura burst like a hurricane.
In an instant, the entire underground space seed frosted, extrely cold.
"Whizz!"
In the next mont, Xia Qing’s figure suddenly vanished from the original spot.
A pristine white fist straight towards Jiang Ye.
"Kill!"
Jiang Ye also erupted instantly, pale silver starlight shone, protecting his arms.
"Boom!" "Boom!"
The two were like war machines, battling fiercely, causing trendous rumbling sounds.
Jiang Ye didn’t attack but kept defending, seemingly suppressed.
"See, Jiang Ye?"
"This is the current ." Xia Qing said coldly, "Your own cultivation will only widen the gap."
She still harbored thoughts of recruiting Jiang Ye.
But Xia Qing didn’t know that Jiang Ye wasn’t showing his full strength.
"The exit is blocked, it’s the only way to fight!" Jiang Ye’s mind was incredibly calm, "Xia Qing is manageable, but those in black..."
While fighting, his gaze swept over the dozen or so people in black.
Earlier, during his conversation with Xia Qing.
He had roughly gauged their strength.
Basically, they were all First Break experts!
And the black-clad elder beside Xia Qing had an aura far stronger than the others.
Though not up to Second Break standards, definitely stronger than an ordinary First Break.
"Only by first killing the strongest one, can it be easier to deal with the rest." Jiang Ye’s thoughts flashed like lightning.
But with his current strength, how to kill that black-clad elder?
What Jiang Ye could think of.
Only one thod.
"Boom!" "Bang!"
"Bang!" Jiang Ye and Xia Qing kept fighting, retreating, seemingly completely suppressed.
"Join us or die here." Xia Qing said coldly.
Her offensive grew increasingly fierce, not planning to continue entangling.
Clearly, she knew too, this place might have already caught attention from outside, unsuitable for staying long.
If Jiang Ye didn’t heed, she could only kill him.
"Clang!" After an intense physical collision, Jiang Ye kept retreating, seemingly unable to withstand the force.
He had already retreated near the black-clad elder.
Suddenly.
Jiang Ye abruptly turned and launched an attack towards the black-clad elder.
"Overestimating yourself!"
The black-clad elder saw this and snorted coldly, a trace of disdain flashing in his eyes.
Being completely suppressed by the Young Master and still wanting to ambush him?
"Young Master, this lad is obstinate, let finish him!"
"If you like, you can just knock him out and take him back!" The black-clad elder finished speaking and slamd a palm at Jiang Ye.
But Jiang Ye suddenly erupted, his speed doubling instantly, so fast that no one reacted.
Gale Step!
"Whizz~" Like a phantom, instantly appearing before the black-clad elder.
Suddenly a high leg raise, sweeping out a leg whip.
Starlight shimred!
Gale Step, Beauty Path Chasing, Pretending, Hitting a Stone with an Egg, Foot Path is also Path... erupted simultaneously at this mont!
[Pretending: 150% critical hit damage increase when underestimated by opponents]
[Hitting a Stone with an Egg: Against opponents with realm higher, chance to increase 100% damage and cause sustained bleeding]
[Foot Path is also Path: Active effect, double foot damage increased by 50%, lasts 60s, 10-minute cooldown]
"Die!!"
This hit was like Tai Mountain falling.
Drawing an astonishing silver arc in the air.
Unleashing a terrifying whistling, hacking fiercely at the black-clad elder.
"Whoosh!"
Over a thousand strands of compressed Star Energy, operating in Starry Sky Secret Technique, under multiple buff boosts, erupted violently from the toe.
Damage increased by 50%, 150%, 100%, 50%...
"Nine Luminaries Star Stepping"!
The black-clad elder’s face changed dramatically; as the strongest on scene, his reaction was swift.
But Jiang Ye’s speed was too fast, this sudden eruption was beyond even his expectation!
Before he could raise his hand to block, he felt searing blood spurt out.
"Buzz!" A cross star brilliance shone.
Boom——!!!
Starburst blinded, like a galaxy, with damage amplified to the max, bombarding the black-clad elder like a cannon.
"Shluush~!"
Dark red blood gushed forth.
The black-clad elder, already blown apart at the waist by Jiang Ye, splitting him in half on the spot!
