"Return the soul?" The divine sense opposite them visibly trembled at the words, and then a surge of Coercive Pressure suddenly came crashing down.
"Heh." Han Li gave a cold laugh, and the Palace went straight up to meet it. Though his control was not very practiced, his purpose was clear.
The Coercive Pressure collided with the Palace, but no obvious fluctuation erupted.
On the contrary, it was as if, in that instant, all energy vanished. Calm and collected.
Then, as if nothing had happened at all, the other side said faintly, "As expected of Creation's successor."
"Hm?" Qu Jianlei was utterly baffled when he heard that. He could not even get out a second syllable—who was it talking about, Creation's... successor?
"Creation's successor?" The other four True Venerables looked at one another. What the hell was that?
Jin Ge gave a light cough. "This damn... Alien Race really has no culture."
"We can't just let this matter go," Han Li said coldly. "Let's kill this bastard first."
At those words, the others found it hard to respond. This "bastard" he was talking about was probably in the Soul-Splitting Realm, right?
Putting aside whether a Soul-Splitting Realm being was easy to kill, and what consequences might come if they failed to kill it properly, there was one simple question—what gave him the nerve to say that?
And yet Qu Jianlei really could take up those words. He said faintly, "No need to bother with it. It's just an Obsession!"
He was absolutely certain of this, because... he had truly dealt with far too many Obsessions.
He could even be sure that this Obsession had originally been dormant, and should have dissipated without anyone noticing.
But Spider had brought back Ugly Tree Root that carried Creation aura, forcibly awakening this Obsession.
