"Fish Elder, Xuanji..."
Xi's ghost spirit reappeared above Yujing City and welcomed Fish Elder back. Just as he was about to order the three Saints to focus on intercepting Xu Xiaoshou—
He suddenly froze.
Raising his eyes to gaze into the distance, he saw the Ghost Beast Contract formed from Heavenly Secrets Dao Principles turn into two streams of light.
One descended upon Greed God's soul beneath the Myriad Ghost Soul-Seizing Art.
The other fell upon Xu Xiaoshou's Purple Mansion between his brows.
"Contracting a Ghost Beast?!"
Xi's eyes went wide as he cried out. From the palms of his hands to the soles of his feet, his entire body turned ice-cold.
Who was Xu Xiaoshou? Setting aside all his other unorthodox paths, his physical arts were peerless, his swordsmanship peerless, and even his spiritual cultivation was nearing peerlessness—he possessed the Great Dao Diagram that Senior Zhong Yuanzi had only just developed.
With such talent, did he still want to add a Devouring Body? Never mind whether the contract would fail.
If it succeeded, and he transformed into that colossal giant capable of contending against a Saint Emperor, then ate Fang Wenxin, Yu Kunpeng, and Zhong Yuanzi all in one gulp...
"Hiss!"
At that thought, Xi went numb.
A Sword-Devouring Kunpeng Giant proficient in every attribute?
The kind that would smash even a Saint Emperor to pieces with one slap, devour them, digest them, and turn them into its own power? "Watch yourselves!"
Xi no longer had time to relay further interception orders to Fish Elder. After changing his words to a warning, he turned and ran toward the Holy Firmament Hall.
If this intelligence was not sent back in time, when the Xuanji Hall Master emerged again, there might not even be a scrap of bone left for him!
