"Brother, you really want to know about the Li Residence, don't you? I know everything about it!"
Xue Mei's gentle voice suddenly rang out, but it was like a clap of thunder exploding in Xing Jue's ears. It spread to every part of his body, causing his heart to tremble and his soul to tremble.
At that moment, Xing Jue's gaze became solemn. A sense of wariness that he should not have gathered in his heart. He looked at Xue Mei, who still had an innocent face, but the feeling she gave him was completely different.
This was because within Xue Mei's eyes, there was no fear, no vigilance, no distrust. Instead, the faint smile at the corner of her mouth was filled with confidence. Compared to before, she was like a completely different person. This change happened too quickly, so quickly that Xing couldn't believe it.
At that moment, Xing Jue suddenly remembered that Xue Mei had been found unconscious in the back garden after the Li Residence had been annihilated, where the battle had been the most intense.
Now that she had personally said that she knew about the Li Residence, coupled with how the entire Li Residence had been brutally massacred, and how Xue Mei had said that she liked blood, Xing Jue had no choice but to link her to the Li Residence's massacre.
"Xue Mei, who exactly are you?"
Xing Jue asked solemnly. He felt that the Xue Mei before him was no longer the timid and cautious Xue Mei from before. Instead, she seemed to be someone else, someone who gave him an indescribable feeling. Although she still looked innocent, the feeling was completely different. It made Xing Jue feel that danger was lurking everywhere, and he felt uneasy.
"Brother, who I am isn't important. What's important is that I know the truth about the Li Residence, but I can't tell you now. If you want to know, we'll meet in the back garden tonight. I'll tell you everything!" Xue Mei did not reply to Xing Jue's words. Instead, a strange smile suddenly appeared on her lips.
Bang!
After she finished speaking to Xing Jue, Xue Mei suddenly struck out with a single palm, and the wall with the barrier was pierced through by her palm. Then, with a leap, she turned into a ray of light and flew out of the prison cell, disappearing from Xing Jue's line of sight.
"Lord Xing Jue, are you alright?"
The noise caused by Xue Mei attracted the attention of General Zhao, Lei Xing, and the others outside. When they entered the cell, they were shocked to see the broken walls and Xue Mei had disappeared.
"Lord Xing Jue, what happened? Where's that girl? "
Looking at everything before them, everyone was shocked and at a loss. This was because when they had entered, Xue Mei had already disappeared. Other than the slightly chaotic prison cell, they had no idea what had happened.
"General Zhao, I think I already know who the murderer is," Xing Jue didn't answer their questions. Instead, he turned his head and said calmly.
"Lord Xing Jue, who exactly is it?" Hearing that Xing Jue actually said that he knew who the culprit was, everyone present was greatly shocked. General Zhao even anxiously asked.
"It's that girl."
Xing Jue had a faint smile on his face, but his smile had already confirmed Xue Mei's identity. This was because when Xue Mei broke through the prison cell's wall, Xing Jue could clearly feel her powerful strength. She was at least at the level of a War God.
"It's her?"
After hearing Xing Jue's words, General Zhao was also startled. This was because he had previously used his soul to carefully observe Xue Mei and discovered that she indeed only had the strength of a Battle-Saint. However, it was almost impossible for a Battle-Saint to slaughter a thousand members of the Li Residence with the strength of a Battle-Saint.
However, when he glanced at the broken wall and recalled that he had entered the prison cell after hearing the noise, but he didn't see Xue Mei's figure or her strange blood-red eyes, he had no choice but to believe Xing Jue's words.
"I will send the news back to the headquarters of the Divine Secret Battalion and issue an arrest warrant for the entire dynasty."
After confirming that Xue Mei was the murderer, General Zhao quickly took out the Divine Secret Battalion's token and wanted to issue an arrest warrant for Xue Mei. This was because such a cruel and dangerous person must not be allowed to roam freely in the Starfall Dynasty.
"There's no need. She will appear in the back garden of the Li Residence tonight." Xing Jue waved his hand, indicating that there was no need for General Zhao to send the message.
"Lord Xing Jue, how do you know she will appear in the back garden of the Li Residence?" General Zhao asked in confusion.
"She said so. I believe she will definitely go."
"General Zhao, gather the best guards and set up the Heavenly Ambush Array in the back garden of the Li Residence," Xing Jue said again.
"Heavenly Ambush Array?"
"Lord Xing Jue, if that demoness really goes to the back garden, I can capture her by myself." General Zhao was shocked when he heard that Xing Jue wanted to use the Divine Secret Battalion's Heavenly Ambush Array to deal with Xue Mei.
The Heavenly Ambush Array was one of the strongest arrays of the Divine Secret Battalion. Its main specialty was not to fight against an army of thousands, but to lay an ambush. Although the Heavenly Ambush Array wasn't difficult to set up, it required a large number of guards to guard the eye of the array. Once the array was activated, it would consume a lot of the guards' energy, and all their energy would be concentrated in the array.
The Heavenly Ambush Array was extremely powerful. With the lineup that Xing Jue and the others brought here, dealing with a beginner level Wargod would be as easy as crushing an ant.
However, once the array was activated, they would consume a large portion of their energy. They would need to rest for several days to recover, so General Zhao didn't think it was necessary to use the array.
"General Zhao, her strength is not to be underestimated. Let's set up the array just in case." Xing Jue said with a smile. His tone had already informed General Zhao of his determination. It wasn't that Xing Jue looked down on General Zhao's strength, but the strength that Xue Mei displayed just now was indeed much stronger than General Zhao.
"But, Lord Xing Jue, the Heavenly Ambush Array requires a large amount of Saint Stones as raw materials. We didn't bring that many with us this time."
Seeing that Xing Jue was determined to set up the array, General Zhao spoke of the real problem. One of the main materials for the Heavenly Ambush Array was the Saint Stones. They didn't have that many.
"Don't worry about the Saint Stones. The Saint Stones I have here are enough to set up the array. You just need to set up the array now."
Back in the slave camp, Xing Jue was in charge of refining the Holy stone. At that time, Xing Jue had hidden a lot of secret Holy stone, and the number of Holy stone that Xing Jue had hidden was so many that even if it was used to set up the Heavenly Law Ambush Formation, it would be enough to set up more than ten of them.
"Alright then."
Everyone was shocked when they heard Xing Jue's words. As veterans, they knew very well how many Saint Stones were needed to set up the Heavenly Ambush Array. Ordinary storage bracelets wouldn't even be able to hold it. Yet, Xing Jue said that he had enough Saint Stones to set up the array. How could they not be surprised?
But no matter what, Xing Jue was indeed the highest leader here. Since Xing Jue insisted on setting up the array, even General Zhao didn't dare to disobey him. He could only bring the elite soldiers of the Heaven Secret Unit to the back garden of the Li Residence to set up the array.
Since the Heavenly Ambush Array was an ambush array, its most important characteristic was its concealment. Therefore, after the array was set up, the true appearance of the Saint Stones and the people hidden in the array could be completely concealed through the powerful energy of the Saint Stones. This was the so-called invisibility state.
Therefore, at this moment, although it seemed like there was only Xing Jue alone in the back garden, there were actually hundreds of people hiding around him. Among them, there was even a Wargod like General Zhao. However, at this moment, they had all turned invisible and could not be seen with the naked eye.
If it wasn't for the fact that Xing Jue had personally witnessed the activation of the array and everyone gradually disappeared before his eyes, Xing Jue wouldn't have believed that the array would have such a magical effect. This was because he had only heard of it, but he had never set it up before.
Most importantly, there were clearly many people hidden around him, but he couldn't sense them with his soul energy. It could be seen that the Heavenly Ambush Array was indeed worthy of its reputation.
Of course, there was a time limit to the array. It would dissipate in six hours at most, and these six hours were exchanged using a large number of Saint Stones as raw materials.
Two hours had passed since the grand formation had been activated. At this moment, the full moon hung high in the sky, and the stars covered the sky. Within the Li Estate that was suffused with the smell of blood, an aura that caused one's hairs to stand on end permeated the entire place, and it could only be described with one word — terrifying!
However, this aura didn't scare Xing Jue at all. What had Xing Jue not seen before? Back in the Sky Martial Continent, the Nether Hall in the Eastern Continent had set up the Blood Soul Formation, turning the people of the Nether Kingdom into living dead. It was truly tragic.
Therefore, even though he was alone in this dead house where thousands of people had died, Xing Jue wasn't afraid at all. Even if he was afraid, he was afraid of the person they were waiting for, Sister Xue. This was because Xing Jue felt that Sister Xue was too strange. Even with the Heavenly Ambush Array, he still felt a little uneasy.
Whoosh!
Suddenly, a gust of wind swept past Xing Jue. It was so fast that Xing Jue couldn't sense it at all. When Xing Jue looked in the direction of the gust of wind, he was shocked to find a young girl appearing not far away.
At this moment, the girl was sitting on a tree that had been split into two. She swung her seductive legs while caressing her soft long hair. Even though her face was so pure and innocent, her blood-red eyes looked very ghostly in the full night. Naturally, she was Sister Xue.
"Brother, I'm sorry for making you wait so long."
Sister Xue was currently caressing her soft long hair with her slender hands while staring at Xing Jue with her blood-red eyes. What surprised Xing Jue the most was the smile at the corner of her mouth, which actually revealed a hint of charm.
Sister Xue had changed drastically compared to the Sister Xue in the prison in the morning. She was simply a different person. Although she looked the same, she didn't feel like the Sister Xue from before at all.
