327 I’m One Of You
The situation at the scene was extremely awkward.
Yuchi jumped down from the bow of the ship and walked on the surface of the Ancient God Sea toward Hu Yiyi.
When he got close enough, he threw himself into her arms, wailing. It appeared that he was having an emotional breakdown.
Hu Yiyi’s body trembled. She looked at the strange man who was half-kneeling on the sea in her arms in disbelief.
“Saintess, don’t do this to me.”
“I will always stand on the side of our fox race.”
“This person doesn’t know what is good for him and was trying to get me to tell him where our territory was. He scolded me, beat me up, and even said that our fox race is trash.”
“Hmph, since he dared to say that, then I’ll say it now. In front of the fox race, your dragon-phoenix race is just a group of ants.”
Yuchi angrily gestured toward Xiang Zihong.
“Saintess, you must seek justice for me and our race.”
“We can’t allow them to bully us like this. We have to show them who’s boss!”
After Yuchi finished, he turned to Xiang Zihong and scolded him,”The fox race reigns supreme here. What right do you have to be here and make requests of us?”
I’ll give you all a chance now. Leave this place immediately. Otherwise, don’t blame us for being ruthless.”
Deathly silence ensued. Everyone was stunned.
Hu Yiyi’s face was burning red. What was wrong with this man? She did not even know him, yet he took advantage of her and forced himself into her arms. She had never seen such a shameless person.
The guards were equally as confused. Why was this person harassing their Saintess?
Also, was this person even a member of their race? How could he say something like that? It felt like he was declaring war on an enemy!
“Friend, just who are you and what do you want?”
Hu Yiyi hurriedly whispered into Yuchi’s ear.
Xiang Zihong, all he felt was shame and anger.
He had been played like a fool.
“Fine then! Since that’s how you want to play, then there’s no longer any need for pretenses.”
“We were prepared to give you all an easy death, but it seems we should torture all of you before taking your territory!”
Then, he grinned evilly as he hurled a ball of scarlet energy at Yuchi and Hu Yiyi. These two eyesores would be the first to go!
Hu Yiyi took three or four steps back in fear, unknowingly dragging Yuchi along with her.
This dragon-phoenix cultivator might have reached the Dao essence realm. She could not fathom his strength!
The guards faithfully put themselves between Hu Yiyi and the attack, well aware that it would end their lives.
“We’re finished.”
“We’re going to be killed by this person.”
“You…”
“I shouldn’t have been worried about you.”
Hu Yiyi looked at Yuchi’s face with great sorrow. She had already accepted her fate.
However, right before it all ended, she suddenly felt her body move.
As she watched in disbelief, she slowly stretched out her right hand. Then, a mysterious flame appeared in her palm.
The color of this flame was quite special.
The innermost part of the flame was blue, the middle was white, and the outermost layer was golden.
Hu Yiyi watched herself gesture to the guards to make way, and then the flame started moving. It was watching herself in third-person in slow motion.
What was going on?
The flame slowly floated toward Xiang Zihong.
When the scarlet energy came into contact with the flame, it dissipated.
This Saintess was an expert!
Then, he saw the flame touch his body, and it immediately started spreading.
Why were there golden flames on his arm?
Why was his body melting away?
Xiang Zihong screamed as his body started withering away from the flames.
