"It's obvious this is a trap. Hoolay isn't foolish enough to recklessly claim he'd wreak havoc on the Skysplitter."
Feixiao crossed his arms, already guessing Hoolay's intention: to use this to make her swallow the [ Crimson Moon ] and become the new leader of the Borisin Battle.
"Indeed, the difference in combat strength between the two sides is too great, Hoolay doesn't seem like the kind of wolf who would shout 'Fighting is awesome!'"
Xing analyzed that Teacher Dan Heng alone, wielding the modified Cloud-Piercer Spear, was enough to cause a ruckus, not to mention that Galactic Baseballer was also present at the [ Wardance ].
Oh right, the Priest in his battle form is also there. Star can't figure out how to win against Hoolay right now.
Feixiao pulled his thoughts back to three hours before the [ Wardance ] was to begin, inside the Seat of Divine Foresight.
"[Surrounding three sides and leaving one open]... Is this the plan you mentioned that can ensure the Wardance proceeds as scheduled?" Huaiyan looked at Jing Yuan.
"Exactly. With Hoolay's escape, the Wardance ceremony should have been stopped immediately. No one can predict where this ferocious beast will attack; festivals like ceremonies are more likely to become his targets."
"However, the Wardance had been in preparation for a long time and was inevitable, so announcing its cancellation breaks my heart."
After hearing Feixiao, Fei Xiao's gaze shifted back and forth between Jing Yuan and Huaiyan. "So, should we open it or not?"
"Since it has to be held... then let it be held." Jing Yuan changed the subject, "But why must today's event be a true Wardance?"
"If all the spectators and contestants boarding the ship are replaced with Cloud Knights, the Skysplitter high in the air will become an excellent battlefield for hunting wolves."
"... But what if Hoolay didn't intend to attack the Wardance?"
Huaiyan stroked his long, snow-white beard. "The damage those two Nameless inflicted on him in the Prison of Deep Seclusion was extraordinary... but it was perfectly contained by the power of [ Eternity ]."
Even the bloodthirsty and murderous Borisin couldn't help but show fear.
"Then let him see the Skysplitter as much as possible. The Sky-Faring Commission will clear the shipping lanes and reduce the passage of other Starskiff. That way, when there's only one ship left in the sky, he'll have a reason to go."
"And General Feixiao will be responsible for striking the mountain to intimidate the wolves, cutting off Borisin's escape route, making him think he has found a place to go."
"Considering that Borisin in Luofu, I will be responsible for going there to put pressure on them, keeping them busy protecting themselves," Jing Yuan said.
"Hehe~ Alright, then this old man should also get some exercise. I will stand guard at the Jade Gate with the Sky-Faring Commission to prevent the situation from getting out of control."
Jing Yuan smiled slightly, "With Elder Yan as this final guarantee, I can rest assured."
"This hunt must teach Hoolay: the Hunt's arrow will always be one step ahead of the prey."
Therefore, the three generals clearly defined their roles and immediately began their operation...
Returning to the present, in Exalting Sanctum, within the temporary stronghold of the Borisin, only Hoolay and Jiaoqiu remain.
"..."
Jiaoqiu stood with his back to Hoolay, remaining silent.
"For hunting, secrets are the most indispensable weapon. Those without secrets are merely prey, torn apart and left to die a miserable death," Hoolay first.
"So, in your eyes, I'm already a prey with no secrets, waiting to die at any moment?"
"Do you have any other way to escape? Jiaoqiu, I have torn away your disguise and defenses layer by layer. I know all the secrets you and the general you serve, and your deepest secrets."
"But the leader also told me his secret, and I know it all now."
"Hahahaha~" Hoolay laughed out loud, "You'll never need it again; you'll be buried here with it."
"However, you're still a lucky guy... after all, you don't have to live to witness the tragic future that your General's Club is destined to face."
Jiaoqiu remained silent, Hoolay continued his pursuit, "I think she understands her fate better than you do—one day, she will be overwhelmed by the ever-growing [ Moon Rage ] in battle, and ultimately torn to pieces in transformation and rage."
"Even the god you worship cannot save her from this fate... On the contrary, He can bring her liberation."
"And the only cure lies in my hands."
Jiaoqiu's lips twitched, and she even couldn't help but 'remind' him, "... After all, you're the healer and I'm the healer. Are you really that confident in your judgment?"
Hoolay ignored him and walked up to Jiaoqiu: "The time has come, Foxian. Before you leave, you know what I'm going to do, right?"
"[Drinking Blood Wine]... It is said that the Borisin's war custom is to kill prisoners and drink their blood before going into battle to incite their frenzy."
Jiaoqiu remained unfazed, but now it was Hoolay's turn to have his lips twitch.
"You've certainly put a lot of effort into studying us... but your journey ends here."
As soon as he finished speaking, Hoolay bared his fangs and bit down hard on Jiaoqiu's neck!
However, the expected scream did not occur; instead, a pain came from the gums.
Hoolay:...
He must have opened it wrong, Hoolay switched sides and bit down.
The result was exactly the same; the pain in the gums even worsened.
Hoolay stood there, stunned. He had clearly bitten down; even if there was no blood, he should at least show some reaction.
What kind of new technological armor is this? Or did the Foxian achieve physical immortality during his seven hundred years of imprisonment, directly cultivating a body of steel?!
Haha~ He must be crazy to think that.
Jiaoqiu looked at Hoolay with a smile on her face, a hint of 'mockery' almost spilling from her lips.
It seems that after drinking the milk tea blessed by the [ Eternity ] Emanator, even if you were thrown into the catastrophic fire of a star and burned for an entire Amber Era, it wouldn't be a problem, since you wouldn't get hurt anyway, and even your senses would be blocked.
Jiaoqiu looked at Hoolay with a hint of regret. It was because of the seven hundred years of imprisonment that Hoolay had overlooked a crucial point—[ Eternity ].
Ironically, the Church of Eternity is such a famous organization, and its specialties are known to everyone. Even a dog passing by would wag its Tail if it heard about them. Yet, Borisin knows very little about it.
The white-robed woman with the star-like ring who claimed to be the ' Lord of Longevity ' didn't mention ' Eternity ' at all when she approached Modu, despite her deception. What does this mean?
Hmm, it might be related to personal experience. A Lord Ravager who specializes in [ Harmony ] encountered two [ Eternity ] Emanator in an organization related to [ Eternity ]. Does that sound absurd?
Although no formal war broke out and resulted in a life-or-death struggle with both sides suffering heavy losses, the Emanator of [ Destruction ] suffered a Destruction blow to his spirit.
If you were to ask if there's Lord Ravager [ Eternity ], the [ Church of Eternity ] would be the most fitting. Isn't there a saying, "Love to the extreme is hate"?
