The aftermath of the battle dissipated, and this area returned to calm.
Big White and Xiao Long'e, the main fighting force in this battle, had also lost their usual excitement when facing combat.
The two stood where they were like iron towers, unexpectedly well-behaved.
After around two or three minutes, Xiao Tianyang finally said softly, "They're here."
As soon as he spoke, several figures with powerful auras burst out of the water.
No more, no less—exactly five.
Xiao Tianyang gave them a rough once-over. Their strength was basically what he had expected.
The strongest among them was a level ninety-eight Evil Soul Master.
However, he was a new face Xiao Tianyang had never seen before, and naturally, he was not Ghost Demon's clone either.
Xiao Tianyang was certain that if Ghost Demon appeared, it would definitely be his true body. There was no reason for him to unnecessarily create another clone.
Besides, Xiao Tianyang had not merely destroyed his clone last time—he had also trapped his Remnant Soul.
That alone made it impossible for him to appear before everyone again anytime soon.
Even if the Extreme North operation might be very important to them.
Still, for an old bastard in a high position who feared death and was injured, Xiao Tianyang guessed that he would not come here.
Of course, the man before them was not Shangguan Qing in disguise either.
If Xiao Tianyang could not even see through that much, he really would be pathetic.
At the same time, however, a very strange thought arose in his mind.
Could it be that the Evil Soul Sect has mastered some method of rapidly increasing one's strength?
Xiao Tianyang raised a hand to stroke his chin as he pondered inwardly.
*Otherwise, why did so many experts at the Super Douluo level
