Serpent Ancestor
Chapter 479: Sudden nemesis

Xue Yang turned his gaze to the horse-faced youth on the wall, questioning him with his eyes.

But the latter just shook his head blankly, indicating he didn't know either.

Luo Gang was in Liefeng City, and even at full speed, it would take at least three days to get here. Moreover, it would take time for the news to reach him.

How could he possibly arrive in two days and bring such a powerful person with him? Could this person foresee the future?

Faced with an unknown underground cave, inviting Gongsun Bo was indeed against common sense, making Xue Yang feel like he was being set up.

He looked at the person beside him, then back at the horse-faced youth on the wall, his expression extremely grim.

Although Gongsun Bo was strong, the duration of his enhancement was limited. He had ways to stall, but the key issue was that he seemed to have fallen into a trap.

Yet he didn't know who the enemy was or where they were!

"Luo Gang, who led you here? Tell me!" Xue Yang gritted his teeth.

Gongsun Bo didn't waste this precious fourfold enhancement. His figure flashed like a cannonball, once again charging at the white-haired elder.

The elder's face changed dramatically, hurriedly rushing toward the door, but Gongsun Bo grabbed him from a distance, compressing his powerful true essence into a wall, sealing the space ahead.

"Get back here!"

Gongsun Bo yanked in the air, and the elder screamed miserably, slapped on the body, his bones shattering, blood spurting out, screaming as he flew far away, landing like a dead dog.

Another strike, another person crippled.

Under the fourfold enhancement, Gongsun Bo was unstoppable, waving his hand to dispel all divine abilities with a fierce gust like ocean waves!

This was no longer the power of the Elemental Infant stage; it was the power of heaven and earth!

To deal with this person, the best method was to eliminate him before he could roll the dice, but he had hidden his identity from the start, and no one guessed it was him.

This was the huge disadvantage brought by the information gap!

The next second, Luo Gang's trump card, the Magnetic Sand, also appeared, transforming into a black javelin, piercing the chest of a cultivator controlling wandering souls with lightning speed, rendering him immediately incapacitated and gravely injured.

The horse-faced youth finally couldn't sit still, leaping down from the wall, shouting, "Stop!"

He cupped his fists toward Luo Gang, saying, "Fellow Daoist Luo, Fellow Daoist Gongsun, I am Lin Tianhe, a core disciple of the Tianhen Sword Sect. These are all my companions. For my sake, let's stop here and share the opportunities in this place, how about it?"

As he spoke, he took out a sword-shaped token, the emblem of the Tianhen Sword Sect.

"Tianhen Sword Sect?"

Luo Gang and Gongsun Bo looked at the sword-shaped token and both halted their actions.

The Tianhen Sword Sect was one of the two major sects on Renwang Star, with Divine Transformation stage elders overseeing it, and branches set up on the outer battlefield, filled with experts that ordinary people dared not provoke.

Only the other major sect on Renwang Star, the Yan Dao Sect, could contend with it.

"Tianhen Sword Sect?" Xu Hei's face darkened. Wasn't this the sect that had threatened him at the Immortal Sect ruins?

He finally understood.

This was clearly a trap set by the Tianhen Sword Sect to lure him out for stealing the Supreme Spirit Stones. Fortunately, he had hidden well enough, or he would have been doomed.

Xue Yang was very unwilling, his face gloomy, the red sun in his palm slightly condensing.

"Xue Yang, you stop too!"

Lin Tianhe looked at Xue Yang and angrily rebuked him. The latter snorted coldly and had to put away the red sun.

"Stop? If I stop now, what if you suddenly go back on your word after my time runs out?" Gongsun Bo sneered.

"We've already lost three people, which can be considered evenly matched. If we keep fighting, and the Insect Emperor wakes up, everyone will be doomed!" Lin Tianhe said seriously.

This was indeed the truth.

Both sides were evenly matched. If one side was completely wiped out, the other side might risk losing the opportunity and wake the Insect Emperor, and then it would be all over.

The best outcome was to share the opportunity.

Luo Gang secretly transmitted to Xu Hei, "Fellow Daoist Xu, why didn't you take action just now?"

Earlier, Gongsun Bo had deliberately driven the enemy toward Xu Hei, intending for Xu Hei to take action and finish off the enemy.

But Xu Hei had delayed taking action.

This forced them to choose compromise. Otherwise, with some trump cards and Xu Hei's assistance, it wasn't impossible to wipe out the other side.

"Wait a bit, there might be more experts coming!" Xu Hei secretly transmitted.

"More?"

Luo Gang squinted his eyes, looking at the blocked door.

At this moment, the sealed door suddenly turned crimson, as if a flame was burning outside, making a cracking sound.

Everyone was startled and turned their gaze toward it.

"Bang!"

The entrance door opened, turning to charcoal, scattering like dust, disappearing completely.

Then, a woman with fiery red hair and a face as cold as ice walked in from outside. Her eyes were devoid of emotion, her robe covered in patterns of fiery birds, and as she walked, flames appeared under her feet, adorning her footprints.

She was as proud as a phoenix, holding her chin high, looking at everyone with a cold voice: "What a pity, you actually stopped. I was hoping you'd kill each other."

With her appearance, the temperature of the space suddenly rose, and the insects and ants in the stone eggs all trembled, even the unconscious Insect Emperor instinctively showed fear.

Even the signals to the outside stopped being sent.

Everyone's faces changed slightly. The threat this woman posed far exceeded anyone present.

Xu Hei's inner vigilance rose to the extreme. From this woman's bloodline, Xu Hei actually sensed a hint of a natural enemy's aura, instinctively feeling threatened.

It was like the feeling he had when he first faced an eagle.

"A natural enemy?"

Xu Hei was greatly shocked, but with a shake of the Demon God Cauldron, all unease was suppressed.

"Ah Yin, how long can we maintain our illusory form?" Xu Hei asked.

"As long as we don't move and keep the space stable, we can last a long time, but if we make any movements, I can't hold on for more than a few breaths," Ah Yin explained.

Two days ago, Xu Hei had already discussed her abilities with Ah Yin.

Since she lost her memory and was picked up by the Chu Tian Alliance, she had possessed this ability, but even now, she didn't quite understand it herself.

The red-haired woman didn't scrutinize Xu Hei.

Clearly, everything that had happened here was in her sight, naturally excluding Xu Hei and his companion from being a threat.

"Fellow Daoist, since you're here, this opportunity also includes you," Lin Tianhe said, cupping his fists, recognizing that this woman was not to be trifled with.

"No!"

The red-haired woman shook her head, her eyes cold as frost, and said, "You have three breaths to get out of here, or die!"
