As soon as Xiao Yan finished speaking, Luo Jin's expression changed instantly. Given Xiao Yan's current condition, how could he possibly deal with this Pill Lightning?
Xiao Yan is already struggling to even speak to Luo Jin, let alone deal with that Pill Lightning, isn't that even more impossible?!
Luo Jin's eyes darted around, and his brows furrowed again. Although he hadn't had much contact with Xiao Yan, he was still quite familiar with him. Xiao Yan was definitely not the kind of person who liked to show off, much less willing to throw his life away in vain. Now that he had said these words, he must have his own confidence. What Luo Jin didn't quite understand was, where did Xiao Yan's confidence come from?
Could it be that thing that almost hurt him just now?!
Thinking of this, Luo Jin couldn't help but shake his head inwardly. Although that thing was somewhat special, it wasn't that terrifying considering it didn't harm him. Otherwise, with Luo Jin 'Luo Jin cultivation level, how could he have dodged that powerful attack!
Feeling confused but constrained by Xiao Yan's words, Luo Jin Luo Jin shrugged helplessly and said with a slight pout:
"Alright, since that's the case, I won't ask any more questions. I just hope you can introduce me to the thing inside you later. Otherwise, I'm not going to get beaten up without even knowing who it is! I don't have the habit of taking beatings for nothing..."
Upon hearing this, Xiao Yan smiled, mentally scolding Xiao Jin again, and said with a laugh:
"Okay! When the time is right, I'll introduce him to you. Don't be surprised!"
As soon as he finished speaking, Xiao Yan said no more, leaving Luo Jin standing to the side with a curious expression. Hearing Xiao Yan's words, he became even more interested in the guy inside Xiao Yan's body.
Without further thought, he moved swiftly back to the stands. At the same time, a voice transmission reached Elder Xuan and Qin Zhong's ears like the wind.
"Hehe, both of you may step back. Brother Yan Xiao has his own way of dealing with this Pill Lightning!"
Upon hearing this, Elder Xuan frowned. Judging from the implication, Luo Jin hadn't forcibly taken Xiao Yan away. However, he was also curious about what reassurance Yan Xiao had given Luo Jin that made him actually leave without a care.
After a slight hesitation, Elder Xuan shook his head helplessly. Since Luo Jin had chosen to believe Xiao Yan, he had nothing more to say. He moved swiftly and retreated.
Qin Zhong, however, was still somewhat worried after hearing this. Seeing that the Pill Lightning was about to fall again, he wanted to resist but was powerless to do so. After hesitating for a long time, he finally retreated outside the circle, but he still kept a close eye on Xiao Yan's safety and would take immediate action if anything went wrong!
Above the void, Gu Li and Chi Lin frowned upon seeing this. Now that Elder Xuan and Qin Zhong had both chosen to withdraw, wouldn't Xiao Yan be left without support again? If that were the case, the outcome would be truly dangerous!
"Damn it! What's going on? At this crucial moment, why did those two back out?! If they back out, what about Yan Xiao?!"
Gu Li was furious upon seeing this. Just moments ago, she had been moved by Qin Zhong's loyalty and courage, but now those emotions vanished in an instant. Qin Zhong's change of heart was too swift!
On the contrary, Old Monster Hu smiled again upon seeing this. He was fine with Qin Zhong's attack earlier, but he was just a mere Three-Star Half-Emperor, not as heaven-defying as Xiao Yan. Naturally, he was insignificant in the face of the Pill Lightning.
However, after seeing Elder Xuan appear, he felt somewhat uneasy. Elder Xuan represented the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion. His appearance meant that the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion was also helping Xiao Yan. The defection of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion made even an old figure like Yan Bing feel a little apprehensive. Clearly, he was somewhat aware of the Cloud-Hidden Pavilion's power.
However, seeing Elder Xuan and Qin Zhong leave, the two of them were overjoyed again. Now, Yan Xiao must be helpless!
However, on the other hand, they couldn't help but feel a little puzzled. The fact that the two of them left together was rather strange. Qin Zhong had shouted in front of everyone in the entire Ancient Wilderness City that he would protect Yan Xiao with his life. How could he suddenly do this? Could it be that Yan Xiao was behind all of this?
"Rumble..."
Before they could think any further, the boundless thunderclouds in the sky began to churn again, and the rumbling thunder was like an earthquake. Everyone's thoughts were instantly interrupted, and their eyes all turned to Xiao Yan. Without the protection of Qin Zhong and Elder Xuan, it seemed that Xiao Yan would be doomed to die in the face of the Pill Lightning!
On the stands, Elder Xuan frowned slightly as he looked at Xiao Yan, his mind filled with questions. He truly couldn't fathom what Xiao Yan would do in his current state if no one helped him.
Luo Jin, standing beside Elder Xuan, looked at Xiao Yan with a calm smile. He, too, had questions in his mind: how exactly would Xiao Yan withstand the Pill Lightning? And how many tricks did he have up his sleeve?
"Sizzle..."
Thunderclouds churned, and a crack suddenly opened. Then, a terrifying Pill Lightning of lightning, like a giant Holding Up the Heavens reaching to the sky, fell again. This time, without Qin Zhong and Elder Xuan's obstruction, it pierced through the air and struck Xiao Yan directly!
If this attack were to land, even with Xiao Yan's full strength, he would likely be severely injured. Moreover, Xiao Yan Xiao Yan is facing this attack in his current state. If he were to be hit, he would probably be blown to smithereens on the spot!
"Whoosh--"
In the sky, the moment the Pill Lightning struck, Storage Ring light on Xiao Yan's storage ring flickered slightly. Then, a thick, dark figure shot out from in front of Xiao Yan and rushed straight towards the terrifying Pill Lightning coming from the sky!
When everyone present focused their gaze on that dark figure, even Luo Jin and Elder Xuan on the stands changed their expressions drastically. Was this the very thing Xiao Yan had mentioned for dealing with the Pill Lightning?!
"This... this is his method?"
Elder Xuan's eye muscles twitched violently. Could this inhuman, ghostly thing before him really be the key to defeating this Pill Lightning?
"This... this can't be ridiculous!"
After a moment of stunned silence, Elder Xuan finally couldn't help but shout angrily. Luo Jin, standing beside him, also frowned deeply. Elder Xuan's words reflected his own thoughts: how could a mere puppet possibly withstand the power of the Pill Lightning?
Most importantly, this puppet's strength is only at the level of Seven-Star Dou Saint!
A puppet with this level of power probably couldn't even withstand a single strike from Pill Lightning!
At this moment, Qin Zhong, Gu Li, and the other two also changed their expressions drastically. It was hard to imagine that Xiao Yan's method of dealing with Dan Lei was actually a puppet without any life force!
Moreover, the puppet's strength is surprisingly weak...
