Are You Looking for Me?

The Blood Mass suddenly began to writhe, and a figure entirely crimson slowly emerged from the blood.

"Hmm? Did you spot me and hide?"

The red figure raised his scarlet eyes, his powerful Soul Power surging outwards like an invisible tide, meticulously exploring every inch of the land.

However, all efforts yielded nothing.

This feeling of being out of control greatly displeased him. "I'll see where you're hiding."

The Blood-Colored Figure's aura intensified, preparing to use some of its most trump cards to investigate.

Sudden.

A slightly mocking young voice came leisurely from behind him. "You're looking for me?"

Blood River Heavenly Venerate suddenly turned his head, his pupils contracting sharply.

Not far behind me, I saw a man and a woman sitting on the branches of an ancient tree, both with relaxed smiles on their faces.

It was Xiao Tian and Xiao Huiying.

Blood River Heavenly Venerate's gaze was sharp as a knife as he stared intently at Xiao Tian: "You actually dare to show yourself? It saves me the trouble of searching for you."

Xiao Tian ignored his words and looked him up and down. He was wearing a blood-red robe, and his hair, eyes and eyebrows were all red.

His entire body reeked of a chilling, bloody stench.

Xiao Tian instantly recognized the person from that distinctive outfit. "Soul Hall Four Heavenly Venerate Blood River?"

"Heh, I didn't expect you to recognize me. Since you know my name, I advise you to obediently come with me. Your bloodline, your Free and Unfettered Hall, are yours to be accepted by my Soul Hall."

"After I've dealt with you, I'll go and capture your brother and Yao Chen."

Mentioning Yao Chen, Blood River's bloodshot eyes were filled with excitement. Yao Chen's soul was something the Soul Hall desperately needed. If he could bring it back, he would have no shortage of cultivation resources when the rewards came.

Xiao Tian's eyes narrowed slightly. It seemed that the information about Yao Lao on Xiao Yan had been exposed. The previous intelligence from the Free and Unfettered Hall mentioned that Xiao Yan had gotten into a fight with the Heavenly Underworld Sect and had even resurrected the Heavenly Flame Venerable, restoring his cultivation to its peak, the Five-Star Dou Zun.

However, they later encountered the Senluo Ghost Venerate, and in the end, they only managed to escape after the Yao Lao used his Ghost Possession ability and the group worked together to severely injure the Senluo Ghost Venerate.

However, Yao Lao's aura was still detected and deliberately spread by the people of the Heavenly Underworld Sect.

"Arrest me? With your status Peak of First Transition Dou Zun?" Xiao Tian crossed his arms and curled his lip in disdain.

"Arrogant! Are you trying to stall for time, waiting for the people from the Free and Unfettered Hall to come and rescue you? Well, you won't have that chance."

Upon hearing the mockery, the Four Heavenly Venerate ' faces turned cold. They had never been so disrespected by a junior. Their name, Blood River, was so powerful that anyone who heard it would tremble.

"You Rat in the Gutter, you can't catch me. You suck blood from everything, you're even dirtier than a rat."

Upon hearing Xiao Tian's words, Blood River Heavenly Venerate erupted with extreme shock, anger, and Killing Intent, his face contorting slightly!

"You're asking for it!!"

"You little bastard, watch me pulverize you with a single palm strike!"

Enraged, Blood River Heavenly Venerate unleashed his attack. Blood light surged from his body, transforming into a Sky-High Blood Waves that condensed into a gigantic Blood-Colored Palm in mid-air. Carrying a strong stench of blood and terrifying power, it slammed down fiercely towards the ancient tree where Xiao Tian was!

As the giant hand descended, the towering ancient tree and the surrounding land instantly turned to dust, leaving a massive crater.

Smoke and dust filled the giant pit, and the Blood Fiend Qi surged like boiling water. Blood River Heavenly Venerate, through his blood-sensing ability, could not detect the scent of Xiao Tian and his companion's blood.

Blood River Heavenly Venerate Venerable narrowed his crimson pupils, continuously increasing his sensing power, but found nothing. He couldn't even sense a trace of the two people's aura, as if they had vanished into thin air.

"How is that possible..."

A hint of doubt crossed the Blood River Heavenly Venerate's mind. How could a mere youth completely disappear before his very eyes?

Suddenly, Blood River's body paused slightly. Then, without warning, a cold voice came from behind him. The voice was plain and unremarkable, but to the Blood River's ears, it was like an echo from Hell, piercing his soul and carrying a suffocating Chilling Intent.

You were looking for me?

Those four simple words sent a chill down Blood River Heavenly Venerate's spine! Every hair on his body stood on end, and an instinctive fear of deadly danger, originating from the depths of his soul, exploded within him.

He didn't even have time to think about how the other person appeared behind him. His survival instinct made him use his life-saving technique without thinking— Body Transforms into Blood Pool!

This is his trump card Dou Technique; his body transforms into a sea of blood, which can be used to confuse enemies and for escape.

However, as soon as this thought crossed his mind, he was horrified to discover that the space around him and himself seemed to be locked and frozen by an invisible, terrifying force.

Now, he is so Body Transforms into Blood Pool that he can't even move a finger.

Immediately afterwards, Blood River Heavenly Venerate felt a slender hand lightly press down on his head.

"Ugh!" Blood River Heavenly Venerate only managed to let out a short, terrified whimper.

Instantly, the smell of death filled Blood River Heavenly Venerate's body, his eyes widened, and his breathing became erratic.

This absolute confinement, this despairing gap...

It was definitely not the kind of force described in the intelligence reports; at most, it was a Mid-level Dou Zun force. Blood River hated those branch halls responsible for intelligence.

"In your next life, open your eyes wider. The reason I've let you follow me for so long and talked to you so much is simply because I was so bored during this journey and wanted to find some fun."

"Otherwise, with your First-Turn Dou Zun strength, you could easily wipe me out with a wave of your hand. Now do you realize the difference between us?"

After Xiao Tian finished speaking, he slightly closed the five fingers of his hand.

In the next instant, Blood River Heavenly Venerate clearly felt that his skull, which was at the level of First-Turn Dou Zun, was as fragile as an eggshell under those five fingers!

"No--!!!"

A desperate and unwilling roar raged wildly in his heart, but no sound could be uttered.

Click!!

A sharp, teeth-grinding cracking sound rang out.

Xiao Tian exerted a little more force with his fingers, and the head of the Blood River Heavenly Venerate was crushed open!

Before the red and white matter could even splatter, it was annihilated into nothingness by an invisible force, leaving not even a trace.

Not even a trace of its soul remained; it vanished into nothingness along with its head.

The headless corpse remained frozen in mid-air before the binding force suddenly vanished, and the body plummeted straight down.

Xiao Tian flicked his hand, as if he had casually swatted a fly.

"I told you it's garbage, but you wouldn't believe me."

A silver figure appeared beside Xiao Tian, carefully wiping Xiao Tian's hands, which were bare. "Master, next time you kill someone, don't do it yourself; it'll just get your hands dirty."

"Okay. Whatever you say."

With a wave of his hand, Xiao Tian instantly erased the surrounding stench of blood and the corpse of Blood River Heavenly Venerate from the world.
