The pair of eyes stared fixedly at the group of people, but they were completely oblivious. They were still immersed in the shock of Sumeru World.
Whoosh!
A strong gust of wind blew as a person rushed into the crowd. Like a wolf in a flock of sheep, everyone was thrown off their feet. Before they could react, they heard a cry of alarm and stopped abruptly.
"Who is it?"
The others cried out. They looked around and saw that one of their companions had fallen into the enemy's hands.
Fang Shishi gritted her teeth, her eyes red. Although she couldn't see who it was, she was already under control.
Just as the enemy was about to reach her, she sensed something strange. But before she could react, the enemy had already restrained her.
The speed was as fast as lightning.
The others looked at this scene and felt helpless.
Ye Dingdang had a fiery temper. Seeing Fang Shishi being captured, she flew into a rage. "Who are you? Let go of Shishi!"
The enemy hid behind Fang Shishi and didn't show his face.
At the same time, Ye Dingdang and Fang Shishi muttered in their hearts. This was Sumeru World, a place under Tang Zheng's control. It should be an absolutely safe place. Why would an enemy suddenly appear?
"Heihei, how could I let her go? She is Tang Zheng's most precious treasure and my most important bargaining chip." A voice rang out, as if a sinister plan had succeeded.
This voice was so familiar!
Fang Shishi and Ye Dingdang had the same thought. Suddenly, they looked at each other and shouted in unison, "Xuan Yin!"
This person was indeed Xuan Yin.
Her intelligence had been awakened by the Ksitigarbha Sutra and she had returned to normal.
The two suddenly remembered that after Xuan Yin became mentally retarded, she was taken into Sumeru World by Tang Zheng.
Unexpectedly, she had unknowingly regained her intelligence and seized this once-in-a-lifetime opportunity to capture Fang Shishi.
Fang Shishi was Tang Zheng's reverse scale and also his Achilles' heel.
With Xuanyin's intelligence, how could she not know this? Therefore, her hunting target was very clear.
Of course, Ye Dingdang was also an important person to Tang Zheng, but Ye Dingdang was further away from her. To ensure that nothing went wrong, she chose to attack the person closest to her.
"Xuan Yin, you actually dare to act rashly? Are you not afraid of death?" Ye Dingdang asked hysterically.
She was both anxious and angry in her heart. Xuan Yin was a vicious and merciless person. If Fang Shishi were to meet with any mishap in her hands and she could only watch helplessly as it happened, she could not imagine what would happen.
She would probably spend the rest of her life in pain and self-blame.
In addition, Tang Zheng would be in even more pain.
This was because he was the one who had indirectly caused all of this. Back then, he had deliberately left Xuan Yin alive in hopes that one day, he would be able to learn more about the Realm Beyond Heaven from her.
However, man proposes, God disposes. Tang Zheng would never have dreamed that this would happen.
Hearing Ye Dingdang's question, Xuan Yin curled her lips and said disdainfully, "Of course I'm afraid of death. Tang Zheng was certain of this from the beginning. It's precisely because I'm afraid of death that I won't let go. She is the key to my escape."
Sumeru Heavens was controlled by Tang Zheng and was an extremely powerful magic treasure. Without Tang Zheng's control, she would not be able to break out of its shackles.
Originally, when she had regained her consciousness, she had been trying to figure out a way to escape. She did not expect that someone would send her a pillow just as she was about to sleep.
Although she had been isolated by Tang Zheng in another area, she had caught the fluctuations of magic power when these people entered Sumeru Heavens.
She quietly chased after them and found this group of people. She waited for an opportunity to make a move, and struck them in one strike.
Fang Shishi could not see Xuan Yin and could not turn her head. She could only ask with an ashen face, "Xuan Yin, you can't escape. Don't waste time."
"Haha, is that so? Why do you have so little confidence in yourself? I believe that Tang Zheng is willing to do anything for you, even sacrificing his own life. How could he watch you get hurt and not do anything? When the time comes, letting me go will be a trivial matter. I believe that he will make the right decision. "
Xuan Yin was all smiles as she analyzed the situation logically.
Obviously, she understood Fang Shishi's position in Tang Zheng's heart. She also understood Tang Zheng's character. He was definitely a person who valued friendship and righteousness.
Fang Shishi and Ye Dingdang's hearts dimmed. They had to admit that Xuan Yin was right.
Seeing that they were speechless, Xuan Yin laughed proudly, "Now you understand my confidence?"
The scene fell into silence. Everyone looked at this scene dumbfoundedly. They did not understand who this person who had suddenly appeared was.
Xuan Yin did not want to delay any longer, so she decisively shouted, "Tang Zheng, don't be a coward. Come out, or your beloved woman will say goodbye to you forever."
Tang Zheng and the other two were originally strolling leisurely on the surface of the sea when suddenly, Tang Zheng's heart trembled and he subconsciously stopped in his tracks. His expression suddenly changed as his attention was completely focused on Xu Mi Tianxia.
He sensed the movement in Xu Mi Tianxia and heard Xuan Yin's words. His heart sank, as if he had been dragged into a bottomless abyss by a boulder.
Empyrean Fairy and Yan Qingyi immediately noticed his abnormality. Seeing his pale face, they realized that something was wrong. "What's wrong?"
Tang Zheng did not have time to answer. His mind was completely occupied by Xu Mi Tianxia.
When he saw Xuan Yin holding Fang Shishi hostage, his body shook violently and he almost fell to the ground.
"Xuan Yin, how did you recover your intelligence?"
Hearing Tang Zheng's question, Xuan Yin smiled coldly. "Are you surprised? Actually, I'm very surprised too. "
"How did you do it?"
"It seems that your recitation of the Ksitigarbha Sutra awakened my intelligence. So, it's all thanks to you." Xuan Yin said proudly.
Tang Zheng's expression changed. He did not refute because he knew that this was the only explanation.
The Ksitigarbha Sutra was not only useful to Asura, but also to Xuan Yin. He even forgot that there was such a big scourge hidden in Xu Mi Tianxia.
"Tang Zheng, let's not talk about these useless things. Hurry up and let me out. Then I'll let your woman go. If not, hmph, at worst we'll fight to the death. If I don't live, she won't live either."
Xuan Yin's goal was clear and her methods were ruthless. Tang Zheng believed that if he stubbornly insisted on attacking, Xuan Yin would not hesitate to kill him.
He didn't care about Xuan Yin's life, but he couldn't help but care about Fang Shishi's life.
"Let her go and I will also let you go." Tang Zheng gnashed his teeth, his anger had reached its peak, as if the flames of anger were about to burst out from his head.
Xuan Yin naturally felt his anger. The angrier he was, the more important Fang Shishi was, and the greater her chances of regaining her freedom.
Although she knew that Tang Zheng was a man who kept his promises, she did not accept his offer. Because she did not want to take the risk.
She had already touched Tang Zheng's reverse scale. Tang Zheng's actions could not be judged by common sense. She had to ensure that nothing went wrong. She would not have a second chance.
She believed that once she failed, Tang Zheng would no longer think of obtaining any more information about the Sky Beyond Heaven from her mouth, and would instead kill her cleanly.
"No, I have to make sure that I'm safe before I release your little lover." Xuan Yin shook her head.
Tang Zheng's voice trembled. It was easy to imagine the mix of worry and anger in his heart.
"You're playing with fire. You're courting death." Tang Zheng said fiercely.
"I've always been playing with fire, but the fire always burns others. I'm safe and sound." Xuan Yin said proudly.
"Then you're asking for trouble this time."
Xuan Yin was unmoved. "I know that Xu Mi World is your territory. If I delay for even a minute, then I'll be in more danger. There's no point in talking to you. Let me out quickly. I'll count to three. If you don't let me go, then I'll just wait for her to die with me. "
"Tang Zheng, don't listen to her. Don't let her go. Letting a tiger go back to the mountains is too big a threat. I don't care. A life for a life. To be able to exchange the life of an expert like her is worth it." Fang Shishi shouted righteously, like a martyr.
"Don't!" Tang Zheng shouted to stop her. "Your life is a thousand times more important than hers. Humph, she's not worth that much. Shishi, don't worry. I'll definitely save you. "
"Haha, so moving. You make me cry. But I don't want to wait any longer." Xuan Yin's expression was a bit ugly. Her position in the Azure Dragon Hall was quite high. She had been able to call the wind and summon the rain for generations. She was a high and mighty existence.
But Tang Zheng said that Fang Shishi's life was a thousand times more important than hers. To her, this was absolutely heinous ridicule and provocation.
Her face was ashen as she said, "One, two."
"Don't!" Tang Zheng turned pale with fright. With a thought, Xuan Yin and Fang Shishi left Xu Mi World and appeared on the surface of the sea.
The sky was high and the sea was wide. The clouds were light and the wind was light. Xuan Yin breathed in the salty sea breeze, feeling refreshed. Her eyes were shining as she greedily looked at everything.
Only now did she understand the pain of losing her freedom. She secretly warned herself that she would never suffer the same pain again.
Empyrean Fairy and Yan Qingyi had been quietly looking at Tang Zheng. Although he didn't say a word, they had already realized that something was wrong.
But since they didn't know the details, they couldn't help. They could only wait and see.
When they saw Xu Mi World suddenly flash and two people appear on the surface of the sea and look at them from a distance, they immediately realized the crux of the problem.
There was danger in Xu Mi World, and even Fang Shishi was kidnapped. No wonder Tang Zheng's reaction was so strange.
After seeing Xuan Yin's appearance, Empyrean Fairy blurted out, "Xuan Yin, why are you here?"
Empyrean Fairy didn't take Xuan Yin seriously at all, thinking that it was already a thing of the past.
