Under the abyss, the white waterfall was like a knife, and the mist was thick.
Xia Fei could vaguely make out that Shen Gufeng and Lin Zhuoying seemed to be fighting with a white shadow. This shadow was like a beam of light, darting upward, and Shen Gufeng and Lin Zhuoying seemed to be trying to stop it.
"Blue Peacock!"
Xia Fei roared, unleashing Peacock Blue on his right arm and forming a Skynet!
Whoosh ~
The white figure's movements were extremely fast, and its angle was strange. In a flash, it had left Shen Gufeng and Lin Zhuoying behind.
At this moment, Peacock Blue had already stretched to more than ten kilometers! The luxuriant leaves covered the sky and covered the earth!
"Don't even think of running! Earth element, Ten Thousand Feet Mountain! "
Shen Gufeng suddenly shouted, his palms moving like lightning in the air.
Rumble ~
Suddenly, a row of towering mountains rose from the abyss. The peaks of the mountains were like spikes, piercing through the clouds in an instant!
The white shadow was actually very nimble. It stepped on the mountain peak formed by Shen Gufeng's earth ability. In this way, the mountain became his accelerator. Under the push of the Ten Thousand Feet Mountain, he shot up into the galaxy like a rocket! Even Xia Fei's Peacock Blue was torn apart!
The entire process happened in an extremely short amount of time. Xia Fei's eyes twinkled when he landed, for that was because that white shadow looked very familiar. It seemed to be that mysterious species that had escaped from the Broken Winged Sky Demon Graveyard! It was just that his speed was just too fast, and Xia Fei was being obstructed by Shen Gufeng's Ten Thousand Feet Mountains, so he was unable to see his face clearly.
However, Xia Fei could feel that chilling aura emanating from it! Just like in the Heavenly Demon Graveyard.
"He actually ran away!" Shen Gufeng said coldly.
Only then did Xia Fei notice that he was now in the deep abyss. There was an invisible energy barrier above his head, and the lake water was blocked here. It was as if he was in a transparent undersea tunnel, surrounded by water and with a sliver of sky above his head, it was a spectacular sight.
Not in the mood to appreciate the beautiful scenery of Jade Water City, Xia Fei asked, Did you guys get a good look at that thing?
Lin Zhuoying and Shen Gufeng both shook their heads. Lin Zhuoying said, "What do you call that white shadow? Did you see it clearly? "
Xia Fei bitterly chuckled. "Both of you are experts, and neither of you saw it clearly. How can I see clearly? "
Lin Zhuoying replied, "Strange movement technique, fast speed, an expert. If I'm not wrong, the Shui Family has already been massacred."
Shen Gufeng and Lin Zhuoying were assassins, so they did not care about the dead. They were more concerned about the white shadow that had escaped from their hands.
Walking along the passageway of the Shui Family, they saw corpses lying on the side of the road after a few steps. Shen Gufeng and Lin Zhuoying did not even bother to look at it, but Xia Fei carefully crouched down and used his hand to lightly touch the arteries of the corpse. His eyebrows suddenly rose.
"How is it?" Yuan asked curiously.
"The corpse has already started to stiffen, which means that this person has been dead for close to twenty-four hours. At the same time, it also proves that the massacre of the Shui family has nothing to do with that white shadow. Just like us, he was a step too late," Xia Fei said.
"Unrelated? How can you be sure? "Radix asked again.
"Don't forget. We only came here after the Light Corona discovered that Jade Water City's energy had been stolen. There were many twists and turns along the way, and it just so happened to be twenty hours ago, "Xia Fei calmly said.
Yuan sighed softly. Something had happened to the Shui family nearly twenty hours ago. No one would be foolish enough to remain here after stealing something from the Shui family, let alone a single person. It did not make sense. Xia Fei's conjecture was very accurate. The group that had massacred the Shui family and the one that had just escaped were two different groups!
They discovered more corpses ahead, all of which had been dead for around twenty hours, which further confirmed Xia Fei's conjecture.
Jade Water City's structure was exquisite. It had created an underwater city out of thin air. The rooms were all transparent, and one could clearly see the lake at the top. When they reached the center of the city, Shen Gufeng and Lin Zhuoying suddenly came to a stop and nodded to each other. There was a shaft here, but it had been completely destroyed by someone, and there were corpses strewn all over the shaft.
* Whoosh! *
Shen Gufeng, Lin Zhuoying, and Xia Fei jumped down together. The moment their toes touched the ground, the two assassination experts split up, one on the left and one on the right. They dove into the darkness, searching for any possible danger, their movements very coordinated.
Furball, who was beside Xia Fei, also came out and jumped onto Xia Fei's shoulder. Its eyes were fierce as it sniffed the room, seemingly not liking the smell.
In just a few seconds, the lights lit up! Lin Zhuoying activated the lighting system.
This place was about a kilometer wide, and right in the center was a metal well cover. The well cover had already been smashed, revealing a circular depression that looked like a tomb, about twenty meters deep.
* Pa! *
Lin Zhuoying kicked away a piece of broken metal as he said disappointedly, "It seems that we're too late. Someone has already taken away the remains of Water Dragon Song."
"Could it be the work of a Dark Spiritualist?" Xia Fei asked. "Why would they want a corpse?"
Lin Zhuoying smiled. "This isn't any ordinary corpse; it's the remains of a draconic beast, Water Dragon Song! Beasts are divided into ranks: exotic beasts, divine beasts, and above that are the legendary dragon-type creatures. Draconic beasts are higher than divine beasts but lower than dragons, and they're the strongest beasts we've ever seen. You can tell from its name that it's a draconic beast, second only to dragons. "
Glancing at Furball, Lin Zhuoying said, "Of course, the holy beast beside you isn't in the hierarchy. It's a pretty good ball, but what a pity."
Xia Fei was slightly taken aback. He did not understand why Lin Zhuoying would suddenly mention Furball out of the blue, even going so far as to say that it was a pity.
Lin Zhuoying said, "This holy beast of yours must have been stuck at stage 8 for a very long time, right?"
Xia Fei nodded. Furball had long since become a level 8 holy beast, just one step away from becoming a perfect being. Logically speaking, this fellow had been living a carefree life with Xia Fei, and Xia Fei had never lacked his energy, yet he was always just that little bit away from perfection.
"Do you know why Shatterstar never goes through his final evolution?" Lin Zhuoying asked.
"Shatterstar is an energy type, so he probably doesn't have enough energy," Xia Fei said.
Lin Zhuoying shook his head, his eyes flashing. "No, this exotic beast of yours is already very powerful. Back at Spirit Mountain, your Shatterstar defeated Nanshazi's Solitary Shining Eagle, meaning that he's long past the point of evolution. I must admit that Shatterstar is doing very well under your care."
Xia Fei was taken aback. He hurriedly asked, "Then why hasn't he evolved? Could it be that he's missing something crucial? "
Lin Zhuoying said, "He's not missing anything, but Shatterstar isn't willing to leave you."
"Leave?! Why would he leave? "Xia Fei immediately became nervous. Furball leaving him was definitely not a good thing. This man and ball had a very deep relationship.
"Why are you so agitated? It's just a possibility." Lin Zhuoying waved his hand. "Holy beasts have always been unpredictable. Don't think that you have a contract with him. If you make a mistake, he might turn around and kill you after becoming a perfect being. That's what's strange about Holy Beasts. Mysterious and unpredictable. As for why I said that he might leave, it's because something similar has happened in history. In short, it's not surprising for Holy Beasts to do anything. They're born freaks!
"This Shatterstar of yours probably knows that he'll undergo a huge change after becoming a perfect being, so he's been deliberately suppressing his level. Even though he's already reached the standard of a perfect Holy Beast, he still refuses to evolve.
"I've never seen something like this before. It's obvious that Furball has an extraordinary relationship with you. He's willing to sacrifice himself to stay by your side. "
Xia Fei could not help but light a cigarette. "I can tell that Holy Beasts have superhuman perception. The more Furball suppresses himself, the more likely it is that something will go wrong after he becomes perfect. If he thinks there's no problem, he wouldn't be deliberately suppressing himself."
"That's right. You're indeed quick-witted, but this isn't my Holy Beast. Shatterstar is yours, and so is the trouble. I'm just reminding you out of goodwill that there's an end to the suppression. He won't be able to maintain his current state forever, so you must be prepared, "Lin Zhuoying lightly said.
Xia Fei was momentarily disappointed. Furball was extremely intelligent. He must have suppressed himself because he foresaw a problem, and the probability was very high.
"You don't have to be too sad. This sort of situation is rare. Your Furball was able to defeat a pinnacle Holy Beast, Solitary Shining Eagle, at level 8, which means that he's still getting stronger. It's like a piece of rubber. The more he is suppressed, the stronger he becomes. The longer he stays at level 8, the more intense the explosive power he'll have when he becomes perfect!
"Let's say — and I'm just saying let's say let's say that Furball still remembers you after he becomes perfect. At that time, you'll obtain an unprecedentedly powerful Holy Beast!" Lin Zhuoying's eyes sparkled.
Xia Fei naturally understood this principle. The universe had its own destiny. For example, the Law Realm had always been suppressed, but when the Cosmic Gate opened, there was a crazy change! In a short period of time, the Skywing Race alone had produced more than twenty Genesis Creators! The Lord Mage had even broken through the barrier of 40!
This was the so-called explosion in strength!
The longer Furball stayed at level 8, the stronger the explosive power it accumulated, and no one could predict what would happen when that time came.
Smiling, Xia Fei said, "Thanks for the matter with Furball. Now, tell me your question."
Lin Zhuoying was taken aback for a moment before bursting into laughter, narrowing his eyes. "You knew that I had something to ask you?"
Xia Fei nodded. "Though we're both trainee dragonriders, our relationship isn't good enough for us to be so open, so you should sell me a favor first. You purposely brought up the matter with Furball, and your meaning is very clear. You want me to return the favor. Everything has a price, and I'm well aware of that."
* Clap clap clap *
Shen Gufeng, who was not good with words, also applauded. Indeed, these two kings of assassination had the same idea as Xia Fei.
Lin Zhuoying shrugged. "I like negotiating with smart people. Since you already know, there's nothing for me to hide. It's obvious that you don't understand Jadewater City, nor do you know about this drake corpse, the Water Dragon's Cry. That's why I'm very interested in how you found this place and what your goal is."
Xia Fei calmly said, "I truly don't know anything about this drake corpse. I came here because I heard that a large amount of bio-energy was stolen from Jadewater City. From the looks of it, it should be this exotic beast corpse called the Water Dragon's Cry. It's this corpse that contains a large amount of energy. When I was on a mission on behalf of Annihilation, I discovered that the Dark Spiritualists were selling the soul tools they obtained from the Genesis Realm at a low price for energy. Perhaps there's a connection between the two.
"As for our goal, I'm the same as you," Xia Fei softly said.
"What goal could we possibly have?" Lin Zhuoying asked with a smile.
"You're the same as me; you don't believe in Annihilation." Xia Fei narrowed his eyes, emphasizing each word.
