Save... You?
Wooden house interior.
The purple-robed figure, who had been approaching Hu Liena, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling with a lewd smile—the leader of the Purple Pearl Pirate Crew, Zi Zhenzhu —froze instantly!
She was still basking in the pleasure of about to "enjoy" her prey, especially the blonde bombshell Hu Liena, whose stubborn and unyielding gaze had aroused her intense desire to conquer.
She even reached out to touch Hu Liena's cheek, which was trembling slightly with anger and fear.
However, just as her fingertips were about to touch that smooth skin, a terrifying howl that shattered the sky outside exploded like thunder! Immediately following were the guards' roars, the explosions of Soul Skill, and two chilling sounds of flesh and blood bursting apart!
All these changes came too quickly! Too violently!
The smile on Zi Zhenzhu's face vanished instantly, replaced by surprise and rage at being interrupted!
"Who goes there?!"
She shouted sharply, her voice filled with shock and anger.
However, no sooner had she finished her question than the thick wooden wall, under her horrified gaze, shattered like paper!
A devastating shockwave, carrying countless deadly fragments, swept in like a tsunami!
The entire wooden house shook violently, and dust fell from the roof, as if it might collapse completely at any moment!
"Commander, watch out!"
The bald, burly man, a Soul King level expert, who had been standing silently beside Zi Zhenzhu like an iron tower, reacted extremely quickly!
He roared, and five Soul Ring —two yellow and three purple—instantly lit up his body, with the fifth Soul Ring shining brightly!
A massive, spiked, heavy Tortoise Shell Shield instantly materialized in front of him and Zi Zhenzhu, attempting to withstand the devastating impact!
At the same time, the other two Soul Ancestor Masters who were guarding Hu Liena and the other two also changed their expressions drastically. They subconsciously activated their Soul Power to protect themselves and tried to rush towards Zi Zhenzhu, who was threatened by the shockwave.
Boom! Crack!
The torrent of blue-gold Soul Power slammed into the phantom of the Tortoise Shell Shield!
That defensive Soul Skill, powerful enough to withstand Soul Emperor's full-force attack, lasted less than half a breath before Lin Xia's furious punch, which combined the Demon Whale King's berserk Soul Power with the power of the Sea God's tremor!
The shield phantom was instantly covered with Spider Web -like cracks, and then, to the bald Soul King's incredulous and horrified gaze, it shattered like fragile glass! The violent impact continued unabated, slamming hard into his chest!
"Puff--!"
The bald Soul King was struck head-on by a battering ram; his burly body arched violently, and blood gushed from his mouth, mixed with fragments of his internal organs!
The Soul Power shield around his body shattered instantly, his sternum cracked with a teeth-grinding sound, and he was sent flying like a broken sack, crashing through the wooden wall behind him and disappearing into the dust!
The two Soul Ancestor who tried to protect the Zi Zhenzhu fared even worse. They were merely grazed by the edge of the shockwave and were sent flying backward like leaves swept up by a gale, screaming as they crashed into the wall, their bones breaking and instantly losing their fighting ability.
A violent gust of air and dust instantly filled the entire interior of the wooden house, blurring visibility.
Broken pieces of wood rained down.
Hu Liena, Dugu Yan, and Ye Lingling were stunned by this sudden and dramatic change!
Bound and unable to escape, they could only watch helplessly as the destructive torrent swept in, closing their eyes in despair.
However, the expected pain of being torn apart by the fragments did not come.
A gentle yet resilient blue-gold Soul Power, like the strongest Barrier, precisely enveloped the three of them, keeping out all the flying deadly fragments and shockwaves!
Only the violent air currents ruffled their hair and clothes.
Hu Liena suddenly opened her eyes, and through the billowing smoke and dust, she saw a figure standing at the huge gap in the broken wall, like a god of war!
The smoke and dust slowly settled, like a stage curtain being violently torn open, revealing the hellish scene inside the wooden house.
Lin Xia's figure, like a demon god emerging from smoke and destruction, stood steadily in the center of the huge gap he had blasted open.
A raging flame of Soul Power burned and rose around him, casting an eerie glow over the billowing smoke and dust.
Those two Purple Demon Eye had now completely transformed into two crimson blood moons burning with hellfire, cold, sinister, and devoid of any human emotion, Lock-On onto the only purple figure still standing in the smoke and dust— Zi Zhenzhu.
As Hu Liena's gaze Infiltrator the smoke and dust, meeting Lin Xia's eyes burning with blood-red fury, an indescribable mix of bitterness, ecstasy, grievance, and the thrill of Reversal situation surged forth like a burst dam, instantly shattering all her strength and pretense!
"Lin Xia --!!!"
A heart-wrenching scream, brimming with all emotion, burst forth from the depths of her throat, accompanied by a trembling, uncontrollable sob from the aftermath of her ordeal!
Tears, like Pearl from a broken string, gushed forth, flowing freely down her beautiful face, now stained with dust.
All the fear, humiliation, and despair transformed into a torrent of tears the moment I saw that figure.
She desperately wanted to run to him, but was firmly bound by the ropes binding her.
Dugu Yan and Ye Lingling beside her were also in tears, with Ye Lingling sobbing uncontrollably. The light of the Nine Heart Begonia flickered faintly in her palm, filled with helplessness and hope.
Zi Zhenzhu was in an extremely disheveled state at this moment.
Although she relied on her Spirit Saint- level strength and instinctive reaction to retreat rapidly the moment the wall exploded, her purple Soul Power shone brightly, forming a protective shield that blocked most of the impact, preventing her from suffering the same serious injuries as her subordinates.
However, the terrifying shockwave contained in Lin Xia's punch still struck her protective Soul Power like an invisible hammer!
"Lin Xia! Don't do it! She's not a bad person!"
Hu Liena's voice, tinged with sobs, rang out again with an unusually sharp tone, almost breaking into a crack.
"She saved us! Without her, we would have been fish food long ago!"
"Lin Xia! Stop!"
Dugu Yan also shouted urgently, her voice trembling with excitement.
"It's true! Calm down!"
Although Ye Lingling was sobbing uncontrollably, she nodded frantically. The light of the Nine Heart Begonia swayed faintly in her palm, as if to testify to Hu Liena's words.
This earth-shattering shout was like a scalding hot iron pressed against Lin Xia's nerves, which were almost completely dominated by his killing instincts!
Upon hearing this, Lin Xia slowly and stiffly turned her neck.
His gaze shifted from Zi Zhenzhu's pale face, which was a mixture of shock and anger, yet also instinctively revealed fear under the threat of death, and fell on Hu Liena and the other two, who Bind ropes, disheveled, but with urgent eyes.
His eyes were filled with the chaos and disbelief that followed his rage; the blood red was still intense, but no longer as purely destructive as before.
"Save... you?"
