Chapter 798
Chapter 799. Light Abyss
Could this guy be the Black King?
In fact, if Xia Feng were the Black King, things would be much easier.
Lost in thought, Huang Zhaoyue flew directly to the golden mist in the center of the dome and said in a low voice, “There’s an Ash Land here, help me activate it.”
Xia Feng didn’t notice anything unusual. Huang Zhaoyue had helped him open a Level 1 Ash Land just now, and he was naturally willing to help her open one now. He took a step and flashed into the air.
The two people faced the star mist, each activating their spirit artifacts, and the star mist immediately lit up with a clear blue radiance.
“Buzz—!!” The radiance turned into waves, violently purifying, shaking the entire God’s blood vessel.
Xia Feng retreated several steps, and blue light shot up into the sky simultaneously. Within the light mass were two items.
A blue card, and a black card!
Xia Feng’s pupils contracted slightly. Just as he reacted and wanted to step forward to snatch them, Huang Zhaoyue had already grabbed these two items.
She held the black card between her fingertips, her dark and beautiful eyes lifting slightly, “What, you seem anxious?”
Xia Feng: “.”
Damn you, Huang Zhaoyue! Xia Feng never expected to be so unlucky as to let the Black King Scout Card fall into this woman’s hands.
And he could only watch helplessly, unable to snatch it.
“Heh~ Compared to being anxious, Your Highness the Imperial Concubine’s posture of snatching cards is more like a hyena that has smelled blood…”
Xia Feng said with a faint smile, “The card card appeared, and I hadn’t even reacted before you rushed forward to snatch it.”
“What, are you afraid of it falling into my hands?”
Xia Feng said leisurely as he brushed off his robe sleeves and slowly walked towards the black dragon woman.
Seeing him so calm and flawless, Huang Zhaoyue nodded, “Since there is no Black King among us, I will use this card as soon as possible to expose the Black King’s position to everyone’s senses. Is that alright?”
“.!” Xia Feng’s heart instantly jumped to his throat. It’s not like that, sis, aren’t you going to chat more?
In that instant, his heart was extremely conflicted, neither admitting his identity nor denying it.
If he admitted it, Huang Zhaoyue could use this Black King card to threaten him all the time, and the content of the transaction they agreed upon before might have to be changed.
The greatest power of ‘nuclear weapons’ is always in the nuclear deterrence formed before launch.
If converted, this would be ‘card deterrence’.
Xia Feng could now place the spirit artifact marker on his clone, letting the clone take the hit, but clones require a large amount of mental power. If they were surrounded and attacked, the clone would be exhausted, and the main body would be found quickly.
At that time, he would surely perish without a burial place.
Therefore, even if his identity was exposed, it couldn’t be exposed in the second round.
It was still the early to mid-game, too early.
It was very disadvantageous to his situation.
“If you have no objections, I will use it.”
Huang Zhaoyue said faintly, her knuckles beginning to tighten. Xia Feng’s pupils contracted imperceptibly. He understood that there was no retreat now! His throat moved.
However, just as he was about to speak to stop her—
“Buzz—!”
Above the dome, the branch-like light rays extending infinitely into the distance suddenly lit up with more sacred light. At the same time, countless golden runes seeped out from the dark pipe walls, intertwining like a spiderweb into a vast and ancient formation, enveloping Huang Zhaoyue in the center.
“Swish—” The blood land where she stood also flared with a bright array of lights, and rune light dragons surged out from within, forming eighteen chains that pierced into her shadowy half-body amidst the dragon’s roar.
“Clang—!”
The sudden sneak attack made Huang Zhaoyue frown and take two steps back.
Xia Feng also looked up in astonishment. From the pulsing, golden-threaded blood vessel wall above and to his left, a vague humanoid silhouette bulged out, piercing through the blood vessels. It was a humanoid creature wearing a long, brown robe.
His face was covered with a pure white oval mask, with a dark flame carved in the center. The neck beneath the brown robe was wrapped with bandages, and even the wrists and palms exposed from the sleeves were covered with medical bandages.
Xia Feng naturally recognized this person.
Burning Heaven Sacred Hall, Destruction Star God’s earthly proxy, Tu Lin, the third seat of the Sumeru Throne.
Beside the bandaged man floated a headless girl dressed in a white angel dress.
“A La~ This mother dragon isn’t much either, so easily ambushed by us.”
The girl, barefoot, hugged her little head in her arms, her cute face wearing a sinister smile. “So weak~”
The bandaged man ignored the angel girl, merely turning his masked face to look at Xia Feng. His voice was mechanical and stiff, commanding, “This is none of your business, leave.”
“?”
None of my business? My card is still with that black dragon, leave for what! Xia Feng was fed up. These people were truly one more cunning than the other.
!
They actually laid a trap here in advance, specifically waiting for Huang Zhaoyue?
Xia Feng recalled carefully and couldn’t help but feel fortunate that he hadn’t spoken carelessly earlier, otherwise, if some secrets were overheard by this cunning fellow, it would have been terrible.
“Swish—Swish—”
At the same time, countless runes continued to pour out from the golden ceiling and the bloody ground, forming golden dragons that roared and attacked Huang Zhaoyue in the center.
Facing the sudden trap attack, Huang Zhaoyue did not show any panic.
Her light gray beautiful eyes looked up calmly. The black dragon head on her shoulder subtly moved its eyelids. The shadowy part of her left body instantly boiled with abyssal mist, shattering the roaring light dragons from all directions one by one.
“Hee hee hee~ Little mother dragon, give up struggling!”
The angel girl’s head was indeed extremely cute if you only looked at her face, but it was a bit creepy when held in her arms.
Her words and tone were also full of taunts and joy, “This is the Blood Array of the former Pale Believer·Light Dragon King, Light Abyss! It’s a sharp weapon specifically for small mother dragons like you who possess the Abyssal bloodline!”
“With your unstable bloodline state right now, you won’t be able to hold on for long.”
As the angel girl skipped excitedly, the bandaged man remained silent. His bandaged palm held a golden crystal, inside which a drop of dragon blood burned like the scorching sun.
His voice was mechanically hoarse like a rusty knife scraping bones: “Lock.”
The crystal and the dragon blood inside dispersed instantly, flowing into the ground formation as golden streams. The countless golden threads that were already meandering at Huang Zhaoyue’s feet expanded, turning into eighteen chains made of light flames, breaking through the air—
Each chain end bore a dragon head carving, forming a giant thorny cage.
Completely trapping Huang Zhaoyue within.
“Buzz—Buzz—” The thorny cage began to swell and shrink bit by bit.
Judging by the situation, Tu Lin was not trying to kill Huang Zhaoyue, but to capture her.
Once the cage shrunk to normal size, it would probably be a successful capture.
“Hee hee, Mask Man, aren’t you leaving yet?”
The angel girl’s cute head floated unscrupulously in front of Xia Feng, revealing a creepy smile, “Don’t tell me you like that mother dragon and want to save her?”
