"I can't take it anymore, I can't take it anymore."
The pitch-black palace was like a primeval jungle, where everyone treaded carefully, for anyone could become prey.
A woman in red, who appeared to have a very attractive figure, was now in a state of hysteria. Her face and arms were festering from her own scratches, and yellow pus was constantly oozing from the wounds, making her look extremely gruesome.
But what's even more chilling is the look in her eyes at this moment, like that of a desperate beast, filled with madness.
"Elder, no! You must hold on!"
Several aged-looking sorcerers behind her tried to dissuade her, but they all warily kept their distance. Clearly, even members of the same family no longer trusted this woman who was on the verge of collapse.
The woman in red paused upon hearing this, standing there blankly, seemingly heeding the advice, her previous madness gone.
The more this happened, the more alarmed the descendants of the families behind them became. Several elderly elders had already begun to retreat imperceptibly.
Ever since that madwoman from the Murong Family survived what she did, the atmosphere in the entire underground palace has changed. The families that used to exchange information with each other have tacitly stopped contacting each other and are growing further and further apart. Although nothing has happened yet, the eerie atmosphere between them has already begun to spread.
This atmosphere is especially evident within the family.
To improve their survival rate, the major clans had always been closely united. However, since the incident involving Murong Yunji yesterday, the atmosphere had completely changed overnight. They were all silent and increasingly wary of each other.
Everyone was poisoned, it was just a matter of degree. Murong Yunji could survive using that method, couldn't the others too?
Such thoughts continue to spread in people's minds. Those who are deeply poisoned become increasingly dangerous in their eyes, while those who are less poisoned become increasingly cautious.
Just now, the woman in red, who had been on the verge of collapse a moment ago, suddenly became quiet, which made the family members behind her jump to their throats.
"Are you afraid of me?" The woman in red suddenly asked in an incredibly gentle voice.
Several young men looked ashamed, but the elderly men behind them were startled and retreated almost without hesitation.
But it was clearly too late. The woman in red sneered, and the red on her clothes churned rapidly like liquid, instantly turning into a sea of blood that surged outwards!
The woman in red struck as if lighting a fire, and shrill screams echoed throughout the dark palace.
Clearly, many people can't hold back any longer!
Amidst the widespread carnage, the criminal who started this whole thing carefully avoided all the sorcerers.
At this moment, Murong Yunji's wounds had all healed, and it was clear that the toxins had been completely expelled. Her body had returned to its best condition, but the more this was the case, the less she dared to act, and she even felt a little regretful.
I was so tormented at the time that I almost lost my mind, which is why I did that. Now it seems that my success story has opened Pandora's box, and most importantly, I may have implicated Chen Qing.
I wonder if our lord has gotten rid of that monster.
And given the chaotic scene, are Ziyue and the others safe now?
Previously, everyone avoided conflict because they dared not reveal their Transcendent power. But now that she has set this precedent, everyone is looking for prey who can act as a substitute. Ziyue is definitely not in a problem protecting herself, but the key issue is that if she also has A Li with her, it will be very troublesome.
Thinking of this, Murong Yunji felt a surge of regret and became increasingly anxious. However, she dared not use the Divine Wind to quickly find Ziyue and the others, and could only secretly pray Ziyue their location had not been discovered.
In the midst of all this careful movement, suddenly, the surroundings darkened!
In fact, the King Xiang Palace was already quite dark under the Black Lantern, with even lower visibility than the foggy Jiangnan, but after a few days of getting used to it, it had become normal. But now, it was noticeably darker.
The darkness spread like ink, and the surrounding space was like a canvas, allowing the pitch blackness to spread. In an instant, Murong Yunji suddenly felt that she could see almost nothing!
She immediately looked around warily. What had happened?
Could it be...?
She suddenly looked up at the main hall floating in the center of the King Xiang Palace.
Those people finally couldn't hold back anymore and decided to make a move?
Indeed, if they don't act soon, King Xiang will definitely expose their location, which will inevitably cause conflict. That group of people together is already a large target, and they could easily be caught in a suicide attack by any sorcerer.
If they don't act now, someone else might attack them instead.
Should we take advantage of the chaos to find Ziyue, or go with King Xiang?
After hesitating for a few moments, Murong Yunji gritted her teeth and finally decided to head towards where King Xiang was!
Ziyue wasn't one to sit idly by and wait for death. In this situation, she would definitely choose to take the initiative, and Chen Qing might also go. Most importantly, if they wanted to deal with King Xiang, then... that... that lecherous little brat...
"They're about to make their move!"
As the darkness spread, Ziyue suddenly stood up.
"What about us?" A Li asked excitedly.
"This is the Black Lotus Lamp, now it has spread completely, even King Xiang cannot see through it, everyone's vision is blocked right now. I'll take you to another place first, and then I'll go to support the lord."
"No, I'm going!" A Li said resolutely.
"Are you going to cause trouble?" Ziyue glared at her. "Whether it's King Xiang or that one from the Xiao Household, which one can you possibly bewitch? What good will you do there?"
A Li gritted her teeth, feeling a profound sense of powerlessness once again.
She was truly fed up with her talent!
Her powerful talent for deception makes it almost impossible for her to cultivate any combat techniques. When she can no longer deceive others' memories, she is more useless than anyone else.
"That's not necessarily true."
Just as the two were talking, a familiar voice rang out, startling both Ziyue and A Li.
How did you find this place?
--
"Everyone, we only have half an hour, and we only have one chance. Please do not hold back, or you know the consequences!"
Inside the garden, the group remained almost motionless, seemingly contradicting Wang Shiyu's claim of an emergency.
Although they didn't move, everyone was on edge, as if waiting for something.
" King of Qin Highness, how much longer?" Wang Shiyu asked Chen Qing.
"Almost there!"
Chen Qing had her eyes closed, as if she were communicating with something.
The next instant, very suddenly, the floating palace in the very center of the King Xiang Palace exploded!
A deafening roar and towering flames engulfed the King Xiang Palace, drawing everyone's attention. However, on Chen Qing's side, everyone seemed to have anticipated this, focusing their gaze on the woman from the Myriad Void Guild.
The woman, with a cold expression, quickly took out a compass. A golden needle spun rapidly on the compass, and after a few breaths, it suddenly pinpointed the location of the southeast corner.
" The Tianshu Position!" the woman said coldly. "That's a decent position."
"Walk!"
Everyone, including Chen Qing, rushed towards that location without hesitation. This time, no one held back their strength!
"Father, be careful."
A familiar voice rang in Chen Qing's Chen Qing, causing a shadow to flash across his eyes.
Just as he had predicted, trouble indeed arose with the Ghost Child.
In fact, he should have foreseen this when the King Xiang Palace appeared. King Xiang had not fully recovered; his physical body was still sleeping in Tomb of King Xiang. How could he afford to open the King Xiang Palace?
The King Xiang Palace was opened by the Ghost Child, opened by the Ghost Child with its own flesh and blood!!
