All around them, hundreds of Cold Light chains flowed eerily... They seemed to have no end—or perhaps no source—as if they had come from the void.
Whether Black Water or Wang Hu, their limbs were now sealed by chains... Both were suspended in the air, as if they were criminals awaiting execution.
Black Water lowered her head. Her upright Shattered Gold pupils had regained their clarity, but with it came a wave of weakness... She knew this was the consequence of having had her Yokai Nature stirred up and using power she should never have used.
But she had never expected that after using the power she had been unwilling to use, it would not change her situation in the slightest. Instead, things seemed even worse... What exactly had happened?
She believed that she was not the only one confused. Even that absurdly powerful one-armed fellow must be puzzled as well.
Wang Hu truly felt as if he had swallowed something heavy—he had already sensed something about to awaken within him, only for the chains to forcibly beat it back to its original form.
Even so, his vast battle intent had been erased, and he had returned to the foolish big fellow Bu Bugao was familiar with.
At some point, the demon clouds in the sky had dispersed... Black Water raised her head and saw a night sky filled with scattered stars and a bright moon.
She tried moving. Contrary to what she had imagined, the chains wrapped around her did not tighten the more she struggled... They had even begun to loosen.
The chains began flowing again. Both she and Wang Hu were slowly lowered, then completely released.
A cold wind blew, and Black Water suddenly shivered... She looked around and saw that many buildings outside had already collapsed.
