Yun Qianzai remained unconscious, unable to react to Ji Yuan being captured, not to ntion himself being taken away. He was utterly powerless in the situation.
The only one who could respond to Phoenix Peach was Ran Kui.
He had been pushing himself with sheer willpower, which was the only reason he managed to fight for so long, but now he thought the battle was over.
With his resolve spent, all his injuries surged forward at once, leaving him unable to move.
Even so, he forced himself to stand, but as soon as he got up, he coughed up blood and fell back down.
"Third brother, you... you must go, you must bring our junior brother back, leave this to ."
Ran Kui’s weak voice resonated, yet he still strained to finish his words.
"That old demon must be at the end of his strength, be careful, it’ll be fine, rember to protect yourself first."
"Okay..."
Phoenix Peach’s eyes were slightly red with urgency; she had never expected that a mission on Black Dragon Island would end up like this.
Even the thods given by their master had been used—there was nothing more to be done.
At this final mont, their junior brother was still taken away.
She wiped her eyes with the back of her hand, then stood up, tossing out over ten talismans from her sleeve to paste them around her... at this mont, she regretted not being an Array Master.
Otherwise, she could have set up an array around here.
"I’ll go after our junior brother now, senior brother, recover quickly."
As Phoenix Peach finished speaking and turned, her fiery-red flying boat was already hovering behind her, waiting.
She leaped onto it, and the flying boat carried her straight into the clouds, heading directly toward the direction where Ji Yuan disappeared.
...
"Get off!"
Ji Yuan gripped the severed hand that was choking his neck, exerting all his strength to wrestle with it.
He was grateful that he was a Body Cultivator; otherwise, this severed hand would have already killed him.
He couldn’t fathom where this severed hand got its imnse strength, even with his late-stage Foundation Establishnt strength, he could barely match it.
As a result, the situation was that the severed hand couldn’t strangle him, but he couldn’t shake it off either.
He was forced to let it grab him, rushing eastwards at high speed.
"Tsk tsk tsk, if I hadn’t caught you, I really wouldn’t have thought that a small place like Cangluo Continent could still have a body cultivator at Foundation Establishnt."
"Body cultivation, mana is also at Foundation Establishnt, yet you’re still young, what a perfect body this must be."
The voice of the ocean-crossing old demon echoed in Ji Yuan’s mind, though weak, his excitent was palpable.
"Hahaha, Foundation Establishnt as a body cultivator, with such a physique, I bet handling a hundred won wouldn’t be a problem."
Ji Yuan sneered, "A hundred won, that’s nothing, I haven’t stopped for ten days and nights, hahaha."
"An old man?"
The ocean-crossing old demon’s voice was surprised, and even the movent of the severed hand paused for a mont.
Ji Yuan seized this opportunity, trying to break free, but... failed.
He could only mockingly say, "Haha, if it weren’t for , which junior would have such capability?"
"I wonder which Daoist friend is here, daring to deal such a lethal hand against this old demon."
The ocean-crossing old demon didn’t relax his grip at all, and the resentnt in his tone even deepened.
Ji Yuan’s mind raced, and then he chuckled nacingly:
"My true na is as it has always been, I am none other than the Red Thunder True Monarch, under Manor Master i!"
The na Red Thunder True Monarch was of course told to him by Situ Feng—Ji Yuan had no idea who this True Monarch was, but knowing he belonged to i Manor was enough.
"Red Thunder? Weren’t you killed by that crazy witch long ago?!"
The ocean-crossing old demon was even more surprised at this na.
Ji Yuan’s face held an unwavering smile, but his heart was in chaos... damn it, how did I end up assuming a dead man’s identity?
"Haha, it’s laughable, you don’t know Manor Master i’s true power at all."
"If it’s really you, Red Thunder, no wonder you would show such lethal intent."
From this statent, it seed like the one trying to kill the ocean-crossing old demon wasn’t Red Thunder, but i Manor?
But why was that? Thinking of Situ Feng’s sudden appearance at this place, intuition told Ji Yuan that there was more to this story—if so, he had to try to coax out more information.
"Then why else do you think I appeared here?"
Ji Yuan mocked.
"The hunter has beco the prey, blinded by their own eagle."
Ji Yuan figured if the ocean-crossing old demon had a body, he would be shaking his head at this point, "Your Shang Court internal struggles are one thing, but who would’ve thought you’d drag into it one day."
Internal struggle.
More internal strife?
Ji Yuan cautiously continued, "They are not our match."
Speak less, aim for not making a mistake.
Since it’s an internal struggle, naturally there must be an opponent—boosting our morale, and diminishing theirs, a typical internal conflict tactic.
As expected, the ocean-crossing old demon laughed mockingly again at this, "It’s one thing to talk big in the past, but this ti... you truly are incapable."
"Even if you stop , you’re only delaying for a while; it’s only a matter of ti before the people from Jiyuan Continent cross Fallen Immortal Gully."
"Moreover... you haven’t even stopped ."
Jiyuan Continent... Fallen Immortal Gully... crossing!
The people from Jiyuan Continent are coming over?!
Ji Yuan was jolted to the core—what kind of earth-shattering secret was this?
In an instant, a connection ford in Ji Yuan’s mind; he understood why Situ Feng appeared here and why the ocean-crossing old demon was heading east!
The demonic forces of Shangxi had contacted the people of Jiyuan Continent...
If they decided to envelope Shang Dong like making dumplings, what would be left to play?
