No Need to Get Angry at a Dead Man!
Black Sha, Night Owl, and Jiu Hai remained silent for an unknown period of time before Jiu Hai finally spoke first.
"This matter..."
"Please rest assured, Lord Jiu Hai, this matter will absolutely not be revealed in the slightest. Although it was Lord Jiu Hai who took action this time, the matter ultimately arose because of our Moon Shadow Cult. If Tantai Jing were to find out, our Moon Shadow Cult would surely perish!"
Upon hearing Night Owl's words, Jiu Hai revealed a satisfied expression...
Jiu Hai had to admit, this Night Owl was truly a talent...
Although he mistakenly killed the Demonic Sect's Demon Demon Express this time, Jiu Hai was indeed terrified.
But now that he's calmed down, Jiu Hai realizes that it's fortunate he's an array master...
It's important to understand that if anyone else had made the move today, the scene would have been filled with the aura of the person who made the attack.
With Tantai Jing's abilities, he could definitely follow these clues and eventually find out who the perpetrator was.
But array masters are different.
Array masters kill enemies by setting up killing arrays, and thus leave behind relatively little trace of their own presence.
Furthermore, the series of killing formations set up by Jiu Hai were laid out several days ago, so there was very little trace of Jiu Hai remaining.
Under these circumstances, with so many people passing by Black Wind Forest every day, even Tantai Jing would find it difficult to easily identify Jiu Hai's aura among so many presences.
So now that Jiu Hai has figured all this out, he can finally breathe a sigh of relief.
Although I killed the Demon Demon Express, I doubt that Tantai Jing will discover that it was Jiu Hai who did all this, so Jiu Hai isn't as panicked now.
However, there were other people present at the scene. If this matter were to be exposed, Tantai Jing would definitely not let it go.
So for a fleeting moment just now, Jiu Hai had the idea of killing him to silence him.
But to be fair, this Night Owl is really clever...
Night Owl instantly understood everything that Jiu Hai was thinking, which is why he said what he just said.
Night Owl is absolutely right. There's no way Night Owl would reveal this, otherwise, do you think it was Jiu Hai who died?
You're seriously underestimating Tantai Jing! You should know that Tantai Jing from the Demonic Sect!
What exactly is the Demonic Sect? Even if you don't provoke Demonic Sect normally, Demonic Sect still want to mess with you behind your back!
Now you've taken the initiative and eliminated the Demonic Sect members, while the Demonic Sect has gained the upper hand in terms of reason...
Tantai Jing will definitely let the whole Four Continents know what it means to be unforgiving even when you're in the right!
It's not that the matter ends when Jiu Hai kills someone and Tantai Jing takes care of Jiu Hai.
Tantai Jing will definitely choose to go to war with the Demonic Sects in the Spirit Beast Continent...
After all, in order to eliminate any future troubles, Tantai Jing would definitely make as much of a fuss as possible, so how could he possibly back down easily!
If Night Owl were to reveal the truth, given Tantai Jing senses, he would immediately think, "Since you did this, what were you doing at the scene?"
What the hell? You were there, and you were one of your Moon Shadow Cult's hired hands...
So, what do you think was the ultimate fate of the Moon Shadow Cult?
Unless the Night Owl has some intellectual disability, there's no way Night Owl would have revealed this, because Night Owl's a smart man.
After giving Night Owl a satisfied look, the next second both Jiu Hai and Night Owl turned their gazes to Black Sha.
"Why are you all looking at me like that...?" Black Sha Demon was completely bewildered...
"It's nothing, it's nothing..." Jiu Hai with an apologetic smile...
"Yes, yes, it's alright... it'll be alright..." Night Owl quickly replied to Black Sha...
Black Sha glared at the two of them, then said, "Two strange people, acting all mysterious..."
Black Sha looked disdainful... Jiu Hai wasn't angry at all, and even had a forced smile on his face...
At this moment, Jiu Hai and Night Owl were completely unconcerned about what Black Sha was saying...
What the hell? What if Black Sha tells everyone?
Brother... don't even worry about "what ifs," with that damn mouth of Black Sha's, he's 100% sure he'll tell...
However, Night Owl and Jiu Hai were not worried or concerned at all, because even if Black Sha wanted to tell, he would need the opportunity to do so...
Once the target is eliminated, the mission will be complete. After that, Night Owl and Jiu Hai will immediately join forces to send Black Sha to his death...
Therefore, in the eyes of Night Owl and Jiu Hai, some people may be alive, but they are actually already dead...
As soon as the mission is over, the two of them will personally send Black Sha to his death!
Now that there's a dead man here, Jiu Hai thinks, "Why should I bother arguing with him?"
He Black Sha say whatever he wants, and I'll not only not argue with him, I'll listen to him completely, okay?
After all, who would bother arguing so much with a dead person, right...?
"Lord Jiu Hai, let's leave here quickly... The Demonic Sect is..." Night Owl reminded Jiu Hai at this moment.
But Jiu Hai shook his head upon hearing this, saying, "What is false can be real, and what is real can be false. Leaving this Black Wind Forest now would be even more dangerous!"
Jiu Hai knew that Tantai Jing had lost a subordinate, and he would definitely not let the matter rest. The entire Demonic Sect was probably being mobilized by Tantai Jing to search for the killer...
It seems the safest course of action now is to leave Black Wind Forest as soon as possible.
However, Hei Jiu Hai thought the opposite. According to normal thinking, someone who killed someone from the Demonic Sect should definitely flee the Black Wind Forest as soon as possible.
Therefore, under such circumstances, Tantai Jing would definitely set up various traps outside the Black Wind Forest.
In this situation, it wouldn't be too difficult for Jiu Hai to escape.
As an array master, Jiu Hai could easily leave using a teleportation array.
But the problem is, don't forget, the Jiu Hai's mission is not yet complete.
Jiu Hai thought to himself, as a Ninth Rank array master, if he went back and told the Devil Master Lord that his mission had failed...
Although Jiu Hai knew that the Devil Master Lord might not punish him, he was still ashamed of his own Jiu Hai.
I am a Ninth Rank- rank formation master...
I'm here to kill a Third Rank official... plus the actors who play Ma Liang and Chu Xinghe...
I failed... Seriously, who can stand this?
Therefore, Jiu Hai stated that although the situation is critical, the mission absolutely cannot fail...
Originally, Jiu Hai's plan was that after the mission failed, there was no need to use any formations or ambushes; he should just rush in and personally take down these three little brats.
But now, this plan can no longer be implemented...
The Demonic Sect is probably searching everywhere for powerful array masters.
After all, although he had almost destroyed the formation when he left, Jiu Hai knew how terrifying Tantai Jing was.
Even with just the remaining fragments of the formation, Tantai Jing would surely be able to deduce many useful things...
In this situation, if he were to take action directly, any slight fluctuation caused by Spirit Power might not go unnoticed by Tantai Jing.
Once Tantai Jing discovers your presence, do you think Tantai Jing 'll assume you're the one who killed him?
After all, Ninth Rank array master... and he just happened to show up... If you were Tantai Jing, could you believe this was a coincidence or a misunderstanding?
So taking direct action is not an option...
So after much thought, Jiu Hai knew that the only way to get rid of those three little brats was to use an array.
As a formation master, Jiu Hai can set up formations silently without attracting any Spirit Power.
Once the formation is complete, Jiu Hai can activate it from a distance.
Even if the killing formation is exposed immediately... as long as the three targets are eliminated in time, while Tantai Jing is rushing towards the formation... Jiu Hai indicates that he has already activated the teleportation array again and left from a great distance.
This tactic is called a feint attack!
By the time Tantai Jing realized it was just fluctuations in the formation and tried to find him, he had already vanished without a trace.
In this way, the mission was accomplished, and they successfully escaped from Tantai Jing's grasp.
Jiu Hai said that this is what makes array masters so terrifying.
It's estimated that only a formation master in this world could not only evade Tantai Jing's search under such circumstances, but also easily complete the mission!
"Lord Jiu Hai, what a skillful tactic!" Night Owl offered his flattery at just the right moment!
"You described it even more perfectly than this before... But please, don't let anything else go wrong... Are you sure your killing formation is reliable?" Black Sha glanced at Jiu Hai with disdain...
"Damn it..." Jiu Hai almost cursed out loud in anger, but in the end Jiu Hai held back. After letting out a breath, Jiu Hai said, "Black Sha Hei Sha is right. Please rest assured, Lord Black Sha, I will definitely not have any accidents this time!"
Black Sha: "Hmph... it had better be that way..."
Although Jiu Hai was angry, he kept telling himself not to be angry, not to be angry with a dead person...
We'll take care of this guy after we're done, so there's no need to get angry over a corpse...
Now is not the time to eliminate Black Sha. If we act now, it might expose us... So, taking a step back will lead to a brighter future, and patience will bring peace...
I have to endure it, I have to back down...
You, Black Sha, are a master... Night Owl and I submit, isn't that enough...?
At this moment, Jiu Hai respectfully said to Lord Jiu Hai Black Sha, "I was ignorant before, please don't Black Sha it against me."
Now, please, Lord Black Sha Fiend, use the Tracking Spirit Orb to locate the target's position, and then determine the location for our next formation setup.
"Snort..."
Black Sha snorted coldly, then activated the Tracking Spirit Orb. The approximate location of Yue Ling appeared on the Tracking Spirit Orb the next moment.
Based on Yue Ling's location, Jiu Hai and Night Owl also deduced their various movements in the Black Wind Forest. Therefore, the three of them immediately headed towards the path that Jiu Hai Yue Ling and her trio would inevitably take.
Having located the path the three were bound to take, Jiu Hai didn't hesitate and immediately set up another killing formation...
This time, the killing formation was completed, and Jiu Hai checked it almost a hundred times... After confirming that there were absolutely no problems, Jiu Hai knew that now it was just a matter of waiting for the prey to come to him...
Meanwhile, within the Black Wind Forest, the Demonic Sect had not yet launched a large-scale search...
What the hell? Why didn't Tantai Jing order the Demonic Sect to frantically search for the murderer in the Black Wind Forest?
Tantai Jing retorted, "Your brain and cerebellum are both underdeveloped, aren't they?"
Have you forgotten that there are still two living fathers in the Black Wind Forest...?
Searching? If the Demonic Sect starts searching, they might accidentally anger those two living fathers. Once those two living fathers are angered, will I, Tantai Jing, even survive?!
Therefore, Tantai Jing did not launch a large-scale search in the Black Wind Forest, but instead searched for it himself...
