The red hair on Xiao Bai's forehead immediately turned into a ball of flame. It opened its little mouth and spat out a ball of flame towards the Honorable Lord.
The Honorable Lord pushed his palms forward. The wind from his palms was like the waves of the sea, sending the flames flying in all directions.
At the same time, his feet kept moving, stopping at a few key points. In an instant, he activated the Celestial Chess, causing the aura in all directions to change greatly.
Boom!
Above the Nine Heavens, the majestic power of the stars descended, enveloping this part of the world.
The flames immediately vanished into thin air, completely suppressed by this formless power of the stars.
Xiao Bai had seen the Honorable Lord in action before, but had never seen him use this move before. It couldn't help but feel strange and hurriedly asked, "What's going on?"
The Honorable Lord didn't answer, but silently thought, "The Celestial Chess has been completed. This capital city is my territory. I can activate the Celestial Chess at any time and borrow the power of the stars to suppress you all."
Seeing that the Honorable Lord was silent, Xiao Bai coldly snorted and said, "It's fine if you don't say it. You think you can suppress us like this?"
Whoosh!
Little Yue Yue seemed to have read his mind. She jumped out from the side, her black tail like a sharp spear piercing towards the Honorable Lord's head.
At the same time, Xiao Bai spat out flames once again.
The sky full of flames immediately surrounded the Honorable Lord from all directions.
A cold light flashed in the Honorable Lord's eyes. With a point of his finger, the power of the stars from all directions engulfed the flames and resisted each other, causing resplendent sparks to explode.
Xiao Bai was anxious. The Honorable Lord's strength was higher than he expected. He hurriedly turned to Little Yue Yue and said, "Little Yue Yue, quickly run. Don't let him catch you."
Little Yue Yue was stunned. She stared blankly at Xiao Bai, as if she was very surprised that he would sacrifice himself to save her. However, she immediately understood Xiao Bai's painstaking efforts and turned to run.
The Honorable Lord roared, "Come back!"
Of course, he couldn't let a cooked duck fly.
The power of the stars converged into one point and like an arrow, it silently chased after Little Yue Yue.
Puff!
A trickle of blood flowed out from Little Moon Moon's back, but it didn't stop. Instead, it increased its speed and disappeared into the night in the blink of an eye.
Seeing that his attack had failed, the Great Lord was furious and annoyed. If he could control the power of the stars better, he would not have let the Scarlet Lunar Beast escape.
Actually, ever since he had mastered the Heavenly Chess, he had also been exploring and researching the power of the stars. Unknowingly, he had also found a way to control the power of the stars. However, he was very clear that there was still a gap between himself and Tang Zheng.
Tang Zheng's control over the power of the stars was like an extension of his arm, and he had only just started. Moreover, he had to rely on the Celestial Chess to be able to do so.
However, he believed that as the Heavenly Chess was perfected, his control over the power of the stars would increase day by day. That was why he allowed Tang Zheng to absorb the power of the stars as he pleased. Of course, he could see that Tang Zheng's cultivation was increasing, but what could he do?
He believed that he could be like Tang Zheng in the future. Not only could he control the power of the stars, but he could also absorb the power of the stars.
All these years, he had been exploring. His predecessors had viewed cultivators as scourges, but he gradually had a different view. Cultivators had always been strong, and they definitely had their merits. Why couldn't cultivators learn from their strengths to make up for their weaknesses? Why couldn't cultivators learn from their strengths and get rid of their weaknesses?
Cultivators relied on cultivation techniques to cultivate their inner strength, and from there, they could produce inner strength, increasing their cultivation and power. However, cultivators were better at absorbing the energy from the outside world to increase their power.
One was internal and one was external. After all, internal cultivation was limited, but external energy was endless. Therefore, cultivators' power was usually higher than cultivators'.
The Great Lord saw this disadvantage, so after thinking hard and referring to the wisdom of the ancient people, he created the Heavenly Chess, which could draw the power of the stars from the nine heavens.
Cultivators couldn't absorb the spiritual energy of heaven and earth, but could they absorb the power of the stars?
After a period of exploration, the High Lord finally gave a definite answer. A martial artist could absorb the power of the stars. It was just that he hadn't explored this path yet, but he believed that with his strength and wisdom, he would definitely be able to explore this path.
When that time came, cultivators could freely absorb the power of the stars in the area covered by the Heavenly Chess. At that time, they would truly usher in the peak period of cultivators, and they would possess strength that was not inferior to cultivators.
This was a very big game of chess. Until now, only the Great Lord knew about this in the world. He wouldn't tell anyone else until the last moment.
Of course, if Tang Zheng and the others knew about the Great Lord's grand plan, they would definitely be amazed. This was because this was an unprecedented pioneering work, and it was the ambition of a swan. If he succeeded, he would definitely leave a thick and colorful stroke in the long river of history.
Looking at the vexed Lord, Little White revealed a smug expression.
Seeing this, the Great Lord snorted coldly and said, "Xiao Bai, you're digging your own grave, so don't blame me for this."
The reason why the Great Lord had spent so much effort to capture the Red Lunar Beast was because the Red Lunar Beast could absorb the essence of moonlight. This might be useful for the Great Lord's research on the power of the stars. That was why he had spent so much effort.
As for Xiao Bai, of course, he knew that Xiao Bai was powerful and extraordinary. However, as far as he knew, even Tang Zheng didn't know about Xiao Bai's origin, so he didn't take it to heart. All in all, if he could kill it, it would be a blow to Tang Zheng.
He wouldn't miss such an opportunity.
Boom!
The power of the stars dispersed the flames and hit Xiao Bai's head heavily. It cried out in pain and retreated awkwardly.
The Great Lord's eyes were filled with murderous intent. His fingers moved and formed a hand seal, and a cadence of syllables burst out from his mouth.
"Om!"
"Ma!"
"Ni!"
Just three syllables of the six-syllable proverb were uttered, and the aura of heaven and earth changed dramatically. Xiao Bai's body shook, and it was unable to move.
Its body was filled with killing intent and battle intent, and it happened to be suppressed by the six-syllable proverb, so it couldn't move.
A smile appeared in the Honorable Lord's eyes as he punched Xiao Bai's body.
Xiao Bai trembled violently, and a trace of red blood flowed from the corner of its mouth.
"Eh?" The Great Lord's eyes flashed with surprise. "After taking such a heavy punch from me, you're still alive. You're really tenacious."
Just as he was about to attack again, his ears twitched, and a strange look flashed in his eyes. He said, "Someone's coming. I'll spare your life for now."
After saying that, the Great Lord grabbed Xiao Bai and disappeared into the night in a flash.
After Tang Zheng returned home, he hadn't even warmed his seat when he vaguely felt the power of the stars descending from the sky. It seemed a little strange.
"Eh, could it be that Ji Wuxiang used the power of the stars when I wasn't around? What is he trying to do? "
In fact, the Great Lord was using the Celestial Chess to use the power of the stars to attack Xiao Bai and Little Yue Yue.
His eyes flickered as he thought about the purpose of Ji Wuxiang's strange actions. However, no matter how hard he thought, he couldn't figure it out. He had an idea. "Should I go to the Go club to find out what's going on?"
He thought for a moment and finally decided to go to the Go club. As for whether he would find anything, he would only know when he went.
When he walked out of the house, he didn't walk far before he saw a black shadow shooting toward him from afar. His pupils shrank as he recognized Little Yue Yue at a glance. However, she was in a sorry state with blood dripping from her body.
He was shocked. When he returned home, he didn't see Xiao Bai and Little Yue Yue, but he didn't take it to heart. After all, these two little fellows usually liked to wander around outside and ordinary people couldn't hurt them. Therefore, he didn't worry about them before.
"Little Yue Yue, what's going on?" He hurriedly stopped Little Yue Yue.
Little Yue Yue stopped in her tracks in a panic and pointed her claws in a direction in the darkness. She growled anxiously.
Although Tang Zheng didn't know what she meant, he could guess that it wasn't anything good. He hurriedly asked, "Is there danger?"
Little Yue Yue nodded heavily.
"Where's Xiao Bai?"
Little Yue Yue pointed in front again.
Tang Zheng's head thumped. He knew that these two little fellows had probably encountered some powerful enemy. There were very few people in the capital who could hurt them. Tang Zheng's heart sank.
"Quick, take me there!" He couldn't guess who it was and decided to go to the scene first.
Little Yue Yue turned around and rushed into the darkness. Tang Zheng hurriedly chased after her.
In the darkness of the night, there was no sound. The air was filled with an oppressive and austere aura, causing Tang Zheng's heart to jump. Suddenly, he saw a few more people lying on the ground in the distance. He didn't know if they were dead or alive.
"Could it be that these people attacked them?"
The man and beast rushed to their destination. Little Yue Yue scurried around, looking for traces of Xiao Bai. However, she couldn't find him at all. She couldn't help but anxiously run around in circles, constantly growling.
"Where's Xiao Bai?" Tang Zheng also realized this. He looked around but couldn't find Xiao Bai. Could it have left after defeating these people?
Then who were these people?
He took a closer look and saw a familiar face on the ground.
"Number One!" He couldn't help but cry out in alarm.
Number One's body was covered in blood and there was no trace of life. Could it be that Number One had brought people to deal with Xiao Bai and Little Yue Yue but was killed by them instead? With Xiao Bai's strength, he shouldn't be at a disadvantage against Number One. Why was Xiao Bai nowhere to be seen?
Also, Number One was the Bureau Chief's subordinate. Could it be that the Bureau Chief wanted to deal with him?
Thinking of this, his heart skipped a beat. A strong murderous intent and vigilance flashed in his eyes. If that was really the case, then the situation would become terrible. To be honest, he didn't want to be enemies with the government. However, if the other party really went too far, he wouldn't sit still and wait for death.
Suddenly —
A few glaring lights lit up in the darkness ahead. Many people rushed out and fiercely shouted, "Stop, don't move!"
Ka ka ka!
