"It worked! It finally worked!" Xiu Yuan felt relieved.
But he had little time to celebrate, and he did not know how much longer he could use this mask.
Xiu Yuan vanished instantly, appearing above the Guili Plains a moment later.
He spread out his divine sense and quickly pinpointed Marchosius and Guizhong.
In an instant, Xiu Yuan vanished again.
Sensing something amiss, Marchosius turned around in confusion, only to find a strange white-haired man in a black coat and a smiling mask standing behind him.
"Who are..."
Squelch!
Before he could finish his question, Xiu Yuan's hand pierced his body. Blood splashed onto Xiu Yuan's mask, and Marchosius slowly collapsed, his eyes filled with shock.
"Aaaaaaaah!!!!!!!!!"
The humans beside Marchosius immediately let out shrill screams.
Marchosius had been preparing dinner for the humans, with quite a few helping him. None of them had expected a strange man to appear out of nowhere and kill him.
Xiu Yuan coldly pulled his hand out of Marchosius's body. Blood splattered across his mask and black clothes like spilled ink.
The light slowly faded from Marchosius's bewildered eyes.
The humans' screams drew a crowd, and everyone rushed toward them.
Xiu Yuan vanished once more.
He stood high in the sky, looking down at the crowd, and soon spotted Guizhong hurrying toward the scene.
As Guizhong rushed over after hearing the screams, a figure suddenly appeared in front of her. Unable to react in time, she crashed straight into him.
Guizhong slowly stepped back. When she looked at Xiu Yuan, her pupils abruptly contracted.
The bloodstained smiling mask filled her with terror. Her clothes had also been stained with blood from colliding with him.
Her face filled with fear, Guizhong stared at Xiu Yuan's mask in a daze. Gradually, she seemed to notice something.
