Chapter 929 - 710: The Long-Unseen Liu Ye (Part 3)
Shen Tang was almost certain that this group of people and the previous group were definitely not sent by the same force!
Then who sent them?
And how did they find her hiding place?
While dealing with the attacks, Shen Tang feigned ignorance and asked, "I have no grudge against you, why are you trying to kill me?"
The leading Beastman sneered, "A dead person doesn’t need to know so much. You’ve angered that Master, and now you have only one path—death!"
Master?
Shen Tang keenly caught the word.
Was it this "Master" who sent them to kill her?
Who could it be?
Unfortunately, the other side didn’t intend to divulge any information, and their attacks became more ferocious.
Shen Tang wanted to escape using Space combined with Earth Escape.
But there were too many experts on the other side. One of the Beastmen punched the ground, instantly raising numerous rocks and sealing off the entire space.
Boom!
Shen Tang was forcibly expelled from the dirt, there was no way to escape.
In the intense battle, Shen Tang’s condition worsened, her clothes were torn, her body covered in wounds, and a sweet metallic taste rose in her throat, which she forcibly swallowed back down.
"Hiss—"
Big Sis is hurt!
Little Snake smelled the scent of blood, becoming extremely anxious.
It turned to look at those assassins, its beautiful and innocent purple eyes instantaneously transforming into cold vertical pupils, and a thick Black Fog burst forth from its body.
The Black Fog became more solid and massive, exuding a strange and terrifying power, turning into countless sharp blades and shooting towards those people.
"Ah!"
Several screams rang out.
The Beastmen tried to block the Black Fog, but found it impossible.
The Black Fog easily pierced through their Energy Barriers, even devouring their energy!
Some tried to escape, but couldn’t.
The moment the Fog touched their bodies, an excruciating pain like being burned by fire ensued, as if the fog had transformed into countless wild beasts, crazily gnawing at their bodies.
They watched helplessly as their bodies were consumed by the Black Fog, screaming but powerless to resist.
Shen Tang was also shocked as she watched Little Snake, realizing that even though its power hadn’t fully recovered, it was already so strong.
How powerful would it be once fully recovered?
Indeed, the System was right; after this rebirth, Xue Yinzhou’s power might rise even further, possibly breaking through to the Legendary Realm above the Primordial Beast Tier.
At this moment, Little Snake had only one thought running through its mind: kill these people who bullied Big Sis and seek revenge for her!
Shen Tang hurriedly said, "Wait, don’t kill them yet!"
Little Snake immediately stopped the attack and turned its head to look at her in confusion, the icy killing intent in its eyes instantly disappeared, and its pupils slightly dilated, making it look adorably dazed and innocent.
"Good boy." Shen Tang patted its little head and then turned her cold gaze towards those Beastmen bound by the Black Fog.
"You can’t hope to get anything out of us! Now that you’re targeted, you’re doomed!"
They shouted with false bravado, black blood oozing from their mouths as they attempted suicide by poisoning.
Shen Tang sneered, thinking they could die in front of her? Even King Yan couldn’t achieve that!
She immediately used her Healing Ability to save them while turning her silver spiritual power into blades, directly stabbing into the leader Beastman’s sea of consciousness.
"Ah!"
He screamed, his eyes instantly going hollow as Shen Tang extracted all his memories.
...
In a magnificent palace.
The young man sat at a high position, lazily resting his cheek on one hand, tall and slender, with crossed long legs, emanating an air of elegance and authority.
His appearance was stunningly beautiful, with light brown curly hair, deep-set features, and skin so fair it seemed almost unreal. His fingers were long and distinct, veins clearly visible on his wrist, making him look like a captivating sculpture.
He exuded an aura of unfathomable power, noble and imposing, and even though Shen Tang saw this scene only through memories, she could feel the intense oppression.
Shen Tang was stunned upon seeing the young man’s face, her expression filled with disbelief, her hand clenching into a fist.
How could it be... him?
She hadn’t seen him for so long, thinking the yearning and sorrow had faded over time. But upon seeing this familiar face again, those emotions surged like a tide, causing her breathing to halt, her body slightly trembling.
Her heart ached intensely, as if repeatedly being sliced by a dull knife.
Only now did she realize how profoundly the pain rooted in her heart, impossible to erase.
Jia Lan...
Her little fish.
During the Alien Star war years ago, he gave her all his power, just to lend her a helping hand.
Her little fish gave everything he could, even himself to her, eventually turning into a Crystal Core that permanently resided inside her.
Every time she remembered that scene, Shen Tang felt heartache, her eyes reddening, tears involuntarily trailing down.
The brown-haired youth before her was identical to her memories in appearance and physique, yet his expression was so unfamiliar—cold, aloof, disdainful of all things.
Jia Lan had vanished.
The person before her was clearly Liu Ye, who had escaped long ago.
He had disappeared into thin air after fleeing from the sea area; she never imagined he had hidden here with such high status.
Rows of Beastmen knelt in the hall.
Liu Ye glanced at the report in his hand, his lips curling in a cold mockery, "I didn’t expect her to come too, she’s really hard to get rid of."
He casually tossed the report to the ground, pointing to someone, "You, go and kill her."
The Beastman receiving the assassination order was the leader of the group trying to kill Shen Tang.
Liu Ye indeed couldn’t pinpoint Shen Tang’s exact location, but he and Jia Lan were split personalities from the same soul. With absolute dominance, he naturally sensed her general direction.
After Jia Lan left, the remaining Crystal Core still retained some of his energy.
And that Crystal Core was now inside Shen Tang.
Thus, Liu Ye could also use it to find Shen Tang.
Upon discovering the truth, Shen Tang’s anger reached its peak—the assassins were sent by Liu Ye!
Not only did he deceitfully win Jia Lan’s trust, seizing his body, he now intended to kill Jia Lan, and even wanted her dead!
Little Snake noticed the change in her aura, sensing that the female was very sad, tears flowing down, and yet also seemingly extremely angry, her body slightly trembling.
It didn’t understand what she had seen or her emotions, only knowing that she was very upset now.
It couldn’t bear seeing Big Sis sad. Watching her cry made it feel extremely uncomfortable, almost as if it couldn’t breathe.
Little Snake leaned in, gently licking her cheek and the tears at her eyes, "Big Sis, don’t be sad, don’t cry..."
Only then did Shen Tang come back to her senses, suppressing her emotions, and gently stroked its head, "Good, I’m okay."
After completely calming down, Shen Tang had already made a decision in her heart.
Now that she knew Liu Ye was here, she was determined to find him and reclaim Jia Lan’s body!
