Chapter 279 In the Shadow
"boom!"
The man in the suit suddenly felt a stronger chill than before, and the temperature in the hall suddenly dropped several degrees.
He had seen Ye Xiao take action, so he knew that Ye Xiao's strength was by no means as simple as it seemed on the surface.
However, according to his speculation, Ye Xiao's strength is at best that of a late-stage Jin Dan.
This kind of strength may be able to dominate in the world, but in the eyes of the hidden world sect, it is no different from an ant, and can be crushed to death with one hand.
"Boy, freeze it into an ice sculpture for me!" The man in the suit said with a sneer, pushing his hands forward, and a storm of ice and snow came towards Ye Xiao.
"Hoo ho ho"
The howling cold wind carried the ice particles and rolled them in the air, suddenly turning into an ice dragon.
Wherever the ice dragon passed, there was only a piece of ice left behind.
"I told you, don't mess with me." Without even looking at the man in the suit, Ye Xiao clenched his right hand and punched the ice dragon made of ice and snow.
"boom"
In the midst of lightning and flint, Ye Xiao's fist hit the ice dragon.
"Zi Zi"
The ice dragon shattered instantly, and then the surrounding cold air evaporated at a speed visible to the naked eye, just like encountering the scorching summer sun.
"What?" The man in the suit's face changed. He didn't expect that his full blow would be broken so easily.
"This kid is weird. He must have a magic weapon to restrain the cold." The old man in black robe stared at Ye Xiao and analyzed.
It was obviously just an ordinary punch, but it not only shattered the ice dragon, but also completely dissipated the cold air that filled the venue, leaving not even a drop of water vapor left.
"The four of us will take action together to capture him!" the man in the suit said coldly.
"Okay!" The remaining three nodded in response.
For a moment, four powerful auras erupted at the same time, and the frantic energy set off gusts of wind.
Just when a few people were about to take action, a sudden change occurred.
"GuluGulu"
The ground suddenly turned into water, causing ripples on the marble floor.
[Tian Lai Novel www.23txt.info] "Ding"
The ripples spread outward, and at the same time, a strange black shadow spread like a tide, covering the entire hall in an instant.
"Puff puff"
Then in the black tide, several tentacles made of black shadows stretched out. These tentacles were as black as ink and exuded strange power, making people's scalp numb just by looking at them.
"What is this! It's so disgusting." The Yinhuan woman screamed and stepped back without hesitation.
"I don't know. It seems to be some kind of magic." The old man in black robe shook his whole body and shook away several tentacles wrapped around him.
"No matter what it is, let's smash it to pieces first." Hua Lianqiu carried Huajianxi on his back, flew in the air, and pressed down with both palms.
"Bang bang bang"
A piece of squirming tentacles instantly turned into fly ash.
"The attack worked!" The man in the suit said with joy on his face, and he also shot a spell at the tentacle under his feet.
The remaining people also took action one after another, and spells flew around for a while, bombarding the tentacles under their feet.
Although these tentacles were numerous in number, they had no defensive power. They were only lightly touched by spells and disappeared without a trace.
"This is... a magical power!? It's interesting." Ye Xiao looked at the four people in a hurry with a calm face and said with narrowed eyes.
He was the only one who noticed that the black dragon and his men had disappeared, and seemed to have been dragged into the shadows under their feet by tentacles.
"Ye Xiao, what should we do now?" Rong Xiaoya asked in a panic.
Black tentacles were also wrapped around her feet.
"It's okay, just hold me tight and I'll be fine!" Ye Xiao turned his head and said to Rong Xiaoya with a smile.
"What! Hey...wait a minute...I'm wearing a skirt!" Rong Xiaoya's face turned red and she exclaimed.
Ye Xiao ignored Rong Xiaoya's protest, pulled the girl over and held her in his arms.
Ye Xiao then relaxed his body and allowed the movement at his feet to pull the two of them into the shadow.
…
When she opened her eyes again, Rong Xiaoya found herself in darkness.
"Buzz buzz"
There were sounds of drilling into the ground, as if something was taking them through the underground.
"Where are we?" Rong Xiaoya asked curiously.
This feeling is very strange. I can't see anything except my eyes. There is nothing uncomfortable about it. Instead, it gives me a very reassuring feeling.
"In someone's shadow, to be precise, it is a small space opened up in the shadow." Ye Xiao said calmly.
"In the shadow!? Will we be in danger?" Miss Rong couldn't help hugging Ye Xiao tightly and exclaimed.
The last time she saw the demon in the void left an indelible fear in her heart.
This time in the shadow, the ghost knows what he will encounter again!
"Aren't you ready to come out and explain?" Ye Xiao was hugged by Rong Xiaoya and couldn't move. He raised his head helplessly and asked towards a corner in the darkness.
"Buzz buzz"
No one answered Ye Xiao's question in the darkness, only the noise of digging into the ground was loud, as if someone was moving faster.
Ye Xiao was not in a hurry. He just stared at a corner in the darkness and continued to say slowly, "It doesn't matter if you don't explain. However, I just opened the box for you, so you should give me some reward, right?"
"You helped me open the stone box, and I saved you. Now we don't owe each other anything." In the darkness, the black dragon's voice suddenly sounded.
"I don't need help." Ye Xiao said calmly without much surprise, "What's more, the debt you just framed me for has not been settled yet?"
"Perhaps you think you can deal with one or two Nascent Soul cultivators. But you have to know that it is a hidden sect. If any hidden sect comes out, it can sweep across the entire Chinese cultivation world." Black Dragon's voice sounded again.
Said angrily.
"Sweep across China?" Ye Xiao smiled and said, "What's so difficult about this? If I had wanted to just now, I could have suppressed the four of them on the spot with one hand."
"Just brag!" Heilong's voice was a bit disdainful, obviously not believing Ye Xiao's words.
After a while, the black dragon's voice sounded again, and with his voice, a plain wooden box appeared in front of Ye Xiao.
"But you did help me. This is the jade plaque displayed at the venue. It's fifteen yuan in total. It counts as my apology."
"The stuff is good, but it's just not enough." Ye Xiao stretched out his hand, put the wooden box into the storage ring, shook his head and said.
"What else do you want? I advise you not to push yourself too far!" Black Dragon's voice sounded again, but there was a little anger in it.
