Boom! This enormous hand, as massive as a divine claw, descended fiercely, instantly arriving in front of the Young Master of Liuhuo Fortress.
“Young Master!”
The mid-phase peak Saint Master guard roared, and in an instant, a blinding wave of Holy Yuan erupted from his body. Boom! A divine ability akin to a heavenly pillar was unleashed, and this person immediately stood in front of the Young Master of Liuhuo Fortress, striving to resist.
Xiahou Zun sneered, “A mere mid-phase peak Saint Master, loyalty is commendable, but unfortunately, your cultivation base is too weak. Get lost!”
With a tremor in his aura, Xiahou Zun swept out that massive hand, instantly sending the mid-phase peak Saint Master guard flying. Bang! The guard spat blood, crashing backward in a disheveled manner, heavily injured, while Xiahou Zun erupted with overwhelming divine light, locking onto the Young Master of Liuhuo Fortress.
The Young Master of Liuhuo Fortress screamed in agony, his figure swiftly being pulled towards that giant hand, completely unable to move.
He, too, was a mid-phase Saint Master expert, but before Xiahou Zun, he could only be captured.
“So that's how it is, I've finally caught you!”
At the moment Xiahou Zun revealed his figure and reached out his hand to capture the Young Master of Liuhuo Fortress, Huo Lao also suddenly descended from above the flying boat, his two fists blasting out violently. The fist light surged through the void, instantly striking into a corner of the endless void array.
The void trembled violently, and a figure appeared, it was the pale-faced Xiahou Zun, with a trace of flame mark on his body, clearly having been struck by Huo Lao.
“It seems you have noticed a hint and realized where my true body is?”
Xiahou Zun's gaze coldly swept over Huo Lao, chuckling, “But unfortunately, your Young Master of Liuhuo Fortress has already fallen into my hands. Aren't you afraid that I will kill him if you act?”
“Hehe, do you really think our Young Master has fallen into your hands?”
Huo Lao suddenly chuckled.
“What did you say?”
Xiahou Zun was taken aback.
In the next moment, he felt that under the grasp of the giant hand, the figure of the Young Master of Liuhuo Fortress suddenly exploded. Boom! On the flying boat, another figure appeared, it was indeed the Young Master of Liuhuo Fortress, his eyes coldly staring at Xiahou Zun.
Xiahou Zun looked at the other party in shock; this person was actually able to escape from his grasp?
No, the secret method just now must have been some kind of substitution technique.
“Substitution technique?
I didn't expect you to have such a secret technique. Liuhuo Fortress is indeed extraordinary. However, since I caught him once, I can catch him a second time.”
As Xiahou Zun's words fell, his hand reached out once more. With a cold snort, a sky-reaching hand once again fell down, fiercely grasping at the flying boat.
“I want to see how many substitution techniques you have!”
In the cold tone, Xiahou Zun's massive hand instantly arrived above the flying boat again, blocking out the sun, like a celestial curtain descending.
“Hahaha, why would this young master still need to use a substitution technique this time?”
The previously terrified Young Master of Liuhuo Fortress suddenly smiled coldly and addressed the inside of the flying boat, “Senior, are you not going to make a move?”
“Boom!”
As the Young Master's words fell, a chilling killing intent suddenly erupted from the flying boat. The next moment, a terrifying Holy Yuan killing intent burst out, rumbling, and a figure appeared in the void, holding a battle knife. As this person emerged, a sky-reaching blade aura surged into the sky, slashing through the stars, the knife intent unrivaled, tearing apart the massive hand that Xiahou Zun had extended.
Boom! The blade aura was horizontal, unstoppable, pouring into a void. Within that void, a figure suddenly appeared, it was Xiahou Zun with a pale face, with a tear in his original long robe, evidently struck by this knife-wielding expert.
