I Bound Myself to a Destructive Witch-Chapter 490 - 458. Vengeful He Jianzhu
Hearing their conversation, Xia Feng’s dark pupils narrowed slightly. It seemed that Lord Peach Blossom had already pursued into the Evil Demon Sea, which was somewhat troublesome.
With his current strength, facing Lord Peach Blossom would completely mean getting abused.
Perhaps he could throw Lord Peach Blossom directly into the Sealed Land, but that would require him to be able to touch Lord Peach Blossom first. freēwēbnovel.com
The chances of success were incalculable.
"Hiss~~" The eerie, feminine man’s bone snake writhed at his waist, its ghostly vertical pupils still staring intently at He Jianzhu, flicking its tongue.
"I don’t want to waste time on this kid, but that mother seems quite delicious~"
The feminine man caressed the head of the bone snake, his lips curling into an excited curve, his breathing rapid, "My darling is already starving~"
Sick pervert! He Jianzhu’s brows tightened as she patted Xia Feng’s back, softly saying, "My dear son-in-law, it’s your time to shine now, hurry up and kill that pervert. He’s so annoying to look at."
Xia Feng rolled his eyes and fled into the Holy Knight Space, turning his head to run.
"?" He Jianzhu’s arm hugged his spine, and she whispered by his ear faintly, "Little brat, why are you running? If you’re a man, go fight!"
"....." Xia Feng realized that this woman’s different Diversion Body personalities seemed to have some slight differences. The He Jianzhu he met in the Garden was more mature and serene, whereas this He Jianzhu seemed somewhat lively, probably due to her younger age.
"Aren’t you scared of that bone snake man?"
"pia~~~" A slap landed, his voice firm, "Shut up."
He Jianzhu bit her lip and arched her back, "...!"
Alright, alright, alright!
Little brat, this is the fifth time you’ve smacked my butt, I will record each and every score in my book.
Without avenging this, I swear not to be He Jianzhu!
Seeing He Jianzhu return to a serene state, biting her lip in silence,
Xia Feng lowered his hand. He naturally wanted to kill those two, but as the saying goes, of the thirty-six strategies, retreat was the best.
Not to mention the impending arrival of Lord Peach Blossom, just consider the bone snake man and the spider man, the former being of True Martial Second Realm, and the latter of True Martial Realm 1, both were Evil transforming Evil Beasts under the Bone-faced Curse’s summon, their strength not to be underestimated.
Killing these two men would probably take a lot of effort.
Xia Feng was too lazy to entangle with them further.
"Boy, do you think you can escape?"
The feminine, mocking tone quietly approached; Xia Feng turned his head and saw a huge white-bone snake, disappearing each time, closing at least a hundred meters rapidly, advancing towards him swiftly.
The feminine man was standing right inside the mouth of the bone snake.
It seemed that this was the ability of his Bone Beast, and it was a kind of Space Ability.
The so-called Bone Beasts, originating from the Bone-faced Curse, some spiritually stabilized Evil transform under the god-sent boon of Bone-faced Supreme, using their own souls and bones as sacrifices, merging with an "Evil Beast in fetal stage"—they could then command the Evil Beasts.
The merged Evil Beasts would either lose their flesh and only retain their skeletons or turn entirely bone-white, thus being called Bone Beasts.
This method could undoubtedly greatly enhance a Spirit Master’s combat power, sometimes even more effective than Awakening Spiritual Devices.
Thus most Spirit Masters who turned Evil and betrayed the Empire would become followers of the Bone-faced Evil God.
Because of this, these followers of the Bone-faced Supreme were known to the world as Bone Masters, or Tame Beast Masters.
However, Xia Feng preferred to call them Beast Masters....
Of course, ’Beast’ was a derogatory term for the Evil Clan, and the followers of Bone-faced Supreme preferred the self-proclaimed term Bone Master.
The Bone Snake was extremely fast; Xia Feng continued running towards the Refining God Tower, even at full speed, he couldn’t shake it off.
The snake lingered distantly behind, fortunately neither falling behind nor gaining much distance.
"Kid, leave that pretty female, and I won’t chase you anymore, how about that?"
A soft, eerie laugh came from behind.
Female? Xia Feng paused for a moment, then realized he was referring to He Jianzhu.
Only the Evil Clan would use such a term to refer to females, it seemed this effeminate man was thoroughly assimilated by the Evil Clan, even his language habits had changed.
Xia Feng patted He Jianzhu on the shoulder, "Female, it seems he’s taken a liking to you."
"It’s not me he’s taken a liking to, it’s his Bone Beast," He Jianzhu whispered with some disdain. "That thing originates from the Silver Snake Clan, likes to burrow into the bodies of the opposite sex, and feeds on their flesh from the inside; it’s disgusting, let’s hurry away."
But at that moment,
"Miss Jianzhu, please, stop."
A hoarse, faint voice arose from all directions, and Xia Feng felt a repelling force, forced to slow down.
In the distance, where previously there was nothing, nearly a hundred white vortexes suddenly appeared, from which emerged one white figure after another.
These white figures, dressed in white overcoats and wearing white bamboo hats, were clearly those who had previously attacked He Jianzhu.
But previously there were three, now there were... exactly 99!
They had only half of their bodies emerging from the white vortexes, densely covering the area in front, above, and below... Under the bamboo hats, their white featureless faces seemed to have sight, uniformly and quietly staring at He Jianzhu.
Xia Feng involuntarily stopped.
At the same time, not far ahead another white vortex appeared, from which a person in a bamboo hat also emerged, but this one didn’t have a blank white face.
Instead, there was a dark vertical slit from the brows to the chin that suddenly opened—!
The eyes were blood-red, with pure black symmetrical curved lines that got smaller and smaller towards the inside, forming the lines of a swirling eye.
"What are all these things?" Xia Feng looked around at the hundred bamboo hat figures, his head spinning.
"Those faceless ones, called ’Faceless’, and those with swirling eyes, called ’Bai Nuo’, are life forms created by the ’Ri Nuo’ ability."
"Ri Nuo?" Xia Feng paused, feeling he had heard the name somewhere.
He soon recalled.
Ri Nuo, a traitor, originally the second Gate Pillar’s disciple, a Seventh Rank Sage, had defected from the Empire after the civil war and vanished without a trace.
"Miss Jianzhu."
Bai Nuo, with hands behind his back and hovering mid-air in a white robe said, "My master sincerely invites you to be his guest, why do you run?"
He Jianzhu couldn’t be bothered to respond, only mentally communicating to Xia Feng, "Bai Nuo’s abilities are very special, don’t stare into his eyes."
Xia Feng averted his gaze as instructed, puzzling mentally, "So, you have a grudge against ’Ri Nuo’? But from the looks of it, he doesn’t want to kill you, but to capture you alive?"
"Ri Nuo is currently sealed in the Evil Demon Sea, capturing me because I know how to break the seal and help him leave the Evil Demon Sea."
Sealed in the Evil Demon Sea? Xia Feng thought pensively, "So, Miss Jianzhu, who exactly are you? It sounds like you used to be quite a significant figure."
Evil Dragon Miss had suspected that He Jianzhu might once have been a Star God, but it was only a suspicion, unconfirmed.
This woman’s identity was extremely mysterious.
"Guess~ But now is not the time to discuss this, kiddo, you’re surrounded."
"It’s we who are surrounded," Xia Feng corrected, turning to look behind where the spider man and bone snake man had already caught up, hovering not far behind.
A wolf in front, a tiger behind.
This was tricky, Xia Feng massaged his forehead in distress.
