Chapter 587: Miss Mu is Critically Wounded and Near Death
Pink Peach Mask?
And a Venerable First-tier Great Expert!
Xia Feng’s black eyes narrowed slightly. What a pain, who was this guy?
The Pink Peach Person was also stunned when he saw the two of them.
He glanced at Xia Feng, then fixed his gaze on Mu Qingtong’s Red Spade Mask. His voice, which was neither male nor female, was muffled and confused, “Who are you?”
He had originally planned, based on Jian Xin’s instructions, to kill the brute Ba Ji here and then rescue the puppet Xia Feng, so that he could later use Xia Feng for more profound humiliating events with his Madam.
However, he was delayed by a few things along the way, arriving only half a minute late.
But in these half a minute, something outrageous seemed to have happened?
He gazed into the distance, where spatial rifts were tearing across the sky, forming one black hole after another and spreading rapidly towards them.
Damn it, what happened?
Was this Red Spade Person in front of him also sent by Jian Xin?
He narrowed his eyes, contemplating, it was unlikely. If the Red Spade Person’s mission was the same as his, Jian Xin wouldn’t have hidden it from him. That left only two possibilities.
Either he, like that fool Ba Ji, had become a chess piece for that rotten woman Jian Xin.
Or, an accident had occurred, and this Red Spade Person was an unforeseen element here to disrupt Mr. Dong Jun’s humiliating plan!
“Buzz—!!”
Killing intent surged abruptly.
“Bad!” Xia Feng’s heart sank. He and Mu Qingtong retreated together, heading back the way they came.
He could clearly sense that compared to the current opponent, Ba Ji was not in the same league at all.
He and Miss Mu had been forced to exit their fusion state due to nearing death, their strength greatly reduced, and they were no match for him.
Their only option was to flee for their lives.
But Xia Feng still underestimated the strength and physique of a Venerable First-tier Great Expert.
Despite the significant distance between them, as soon as he and Miss Mu took a step back, two shadow hands extended from underground, grabbing his ankles and freezing his body.
In the next instant, the Pink Peach Person appeared before Xia Feng. With his left hand behind his back, he held Xia Feng’s jaw with his right hand, lifting his head high.
“Mr. Xia, your finger bone.” A cool thought echoed, and Xia Feng understood. He dropped his finger bone down his pant leg, and with a thought, he vanished from his spot.
He instantly teleported behind Miss Mu, who had already fled far away.
But the moment he landed.
The space to his right suddenly shattered like a thick pane of glass, and piercing, cloud-blue transparent light cones burst through the cracks!
They emitted a piercing shriek that stung his nerves.
[A-class Fruit Position – Light Contact Boundary Wall]
The two of them stood, one in front of the other. Unbeknownst to them, a latticework of light, solid in form, had appeared around them, like a transparent sixteen-sided dice, sealing and restricting their movements.
Xia Feng felt completely unable to move, his thoughts sinking into a quagmire, operating very slowly.
The world seemed to have entered slow motion.
The surrounding light flow was clear to the smallest detail. In his peripheral vision, he could clearly see the transparent light cone that had burst through the glass wall on his right, like a dazzling bullet trailing flowing light, slowly approaching his shoulder blades as it spun rapidly.
But he could do nothing, only watch in his sluggish mind as the light cone closed in, once again feeling how close death was, an icy chill penetrating his bones, as if he had fallen into an icy abyss.
Mu Qingtong’s thoughts were swift. She first glanced at the light cone to her right, clearly perceiving that if struck by it, Mr. Xia’s meager mental power would erupt and he would die instantly.
With this in mind, she looked at the black-robed Pink Peach Person in the distance. A short, pale finger bone was falling at that person’s feet.
Mu Qingtong’s thought moved, and she used the [Azure Bone Chasing Technique] to teleport the [Collapsing Particle] above the finger bone.
The collapsing particle was exchanged with the last remaining life force value of the Fate Stone. Its effect was far less than one ten-thousandth of the Collapsing Stone Slab, but it could precisely accelerate the expansion of the black hole.
“Buzz—”
The moment the grayish-brown particle appeared above the finger bone, it instantly detonated the already unstable surrounding space, tearing the spatial rift into a giant black hole. The Pink Peach Person’s expression changed slightly. He never expected to be ambushed like this. He was about to use his Spirit Robe to dodge, but being in the center of the giant black hole, he couldn’t resist its terrifying suction.
The world spun, and he was swallowed into the darkness, disappearing without a trace.
At the same time, Mu Qingtong lunged sharply to the right, turning backward!
“Ugh—”
The light cone pierced through her back, and the slowed world suddenly returned to normal. Xia Feng’s dark pupils slowly widened.
Everything happened so suddenly!
He watched as Miss Mu suddenly turned and stood in front of him, the terrifying light cone piercing directly through Miss Mu’s heart!
The silver-haired woman stumbled half a step forward, her delicate hand pressing on Xia Feng’s shoulder.
The mask that concealed her face dissolved into specks of spiritual light that floated away. Blood seeped from the corner of her lips. Mu Qingtong’s cool, pretty face turned pale, but her expression remained calm.
Only her delicate hand was reaching forward sluggishly. Xia Feng’s mind went blank. That cold, chilling hand slowly caressed his cheek.
“You—” Xia Feng felt as if his throat was blocked by a stone. His mind was exploding with chaotic thoughts. This attack… it shouldn’t kill Miss Mu, right?
After all, she was so powerful…
A few strands of silver hair danced in the wind. Mu Qingtong’s lips curved into a faint smile, her beautiful eyes filled with a hint of helplessness.
!
“Mr. Xia, I’m tired. Could you support me?”
The bloody corner of her lips twitched slightly. She whispered and could no longer hold on. Her gaze became unfocused, her eyelids grew heavy with exhaustion, and slowly closed.
Her face leaned softly against his neck, her breath fading!
Xia Feng’s dilated ink-black pupils contracted into stars. The scalp on his head exploded. His heart ached inexplicably, convulsing in waves.
Huh?
Something seemed wrong?
Heart… Xia Feng suddenly regained his senses, realizing that the synchronized state with the Calamity Demon Heart had not been released, which meant Mu Qingtong was not dead!
He quickly supported Miss Mu, checking her physical condition.
Her breathing was indeed gone, but her heart was still beating faintly.
Fortunately, fortunately, she wasn’t dead yet! Xia Feng couldn’t help but breathe a sigh of relief, but his heart, which had been in his throat, didn’t settle. Just because she wasn’t dead now didn’t mean she wouldn’t die later.
She had to be treated quickly!
First, they had to leave this dangerous place.
Xia Feng frowned, not delaying any further. He turned and carried the unconscious Miss Mu on his back, stepped forward, and sped madly towards the distant darkness.

On the other side.
Jin Yanghong stood in the Main Warship, looking at the sky-covering black holes in the distant night sky, his gaze filled with confusion.
He really couldn’t understand.
Was it necessary to make such a big fuss just for a play?
Ba Ji hadn’t told him all the plans, only saying that everything was part of the plan and he shouldn’t ask too many questions.
So, was Ba Ji’s death here also part of the plan?
If that were the case, Mr. Dong Jun’s scheme was probably not just for the Holy Solution Ceremony, but for something else.
Beside him.
Upon hearing Jin Yanghong say that Ba Ji’s life signs had vanished, the Element Saintess’s fingers, clenched tightly at the edges of her sleeves, loosened slightly, and the blood returned to her pale fingertips.
It seemed they had successfully escaped.
They actually managed to kill a Venerable Third-tier Expert with True Martial rank…
They were as formidable as ever. Beneath the Element Saintess’s golden mask, her beautiful eyes drooped, her gaze complex.
