Chapter 524 (2/2)
He then waved his hand, sending the people away to start the search. Before long, someone discovered Xiang Shaoyun. That person launched their signal noiselessly, notifying all the a.s.sa.s.sins to gather near Xiang Shaoyun.
At this time, Xiang Shaoyun had just left the restricted s.p.a.ce with Devouring Ghost. He had not expected that someone would notice him so soon after exiting. When they were walking through an alley, he sensed that someone was tailing him. He immediately told Devouring Ghost, ”Looks like trouble is coming.”
”Come, then. My blood demon clone is in need of blood anyway,” said Devouring Ghost as he licked his lips.
Soon, Rat a.s.sa.s.sins members arrived from different directions and slowly surrounded Xiang Shaoyun's group. They did not attack immediately. Rather, they sealed all the possible escape routes, hoping to finish the job once and for all.
Xiang Shaoyun finally said, ”Where did these suicidal rats come from?”
Right after he said that, a ma.s.sive net dropped down from the sky. Two Emperors were personally dragging the net from two sides as if they were trying to catch some fish, attempting to capture and kill both Xiang Shaoyun and Devouring Ghost on the spot.
The net shone with a sharp glint, and it was obvious the net was made of unique and rare materials. The people around them also attacked at the same time, sending attacks of all colors toward Xiang Shaoyun and Devouring Ghost as the net dropped.
All the attackers were powerful Emperors. It was not possible for Xiang Shaoyun to withstand their attacks. Naturally, Devouring Ghost would protect Xiang Shaoyun from any harm. Jin Wo quickly transformed back to his original form, intending to fight in his strongest form.
At this time, the nether prison devil puppet appeared and charged the a.s.sa.s.sins right ahead of them. The puppet punched repeatedly, scattering most of the incoming attacks, reducing the pressure on Xiang Shaoyun. The net wrapped around the nether prison devil puppet, and it couldn't throw the net off despite repeated struggles.
The two Emperors controlling the net quickly dragged it, trying to subdue the puppet. However, the puppet was too strong. It waved its arms without stop, making it hard for the two Emperors to maintain their grips on the net.
Suddenly, a Sovereign dove down from the sky like a hawk toward Xiang Shaoyun, moving at an astonis.h.i.+ng speed. Devouring Ghost was instantly on guard, and he pushed his strength to the limits. Numerous ghostly shadows floated out of him, followed by numerous floating clumps of light. Darkness and light combined, erupting with a much stronger attack that flew toward the Sovereign.
The Sovereign had not expected that Xiang Shaoyun would have such an expert by his side. However, he could sense that this person was only a peak Emperor. Thus, he showed no fear. Only when his attack collided with the incoming attack did he realize that he had underestimated his opponent.
”Trying to kill my young master? Have you asked for my permission?” Devouring Ghost sneered as he transformed into a specter that arrived beside the Sovereign before unleas.h.i.+ng the power of darkness and light to form a ma.s.sive palm. With it, he clawed at the Sovereign.
Greatly shocked, the first-stage Sovereign quickly blocked the incoming attack. He had never expected that a peak Emperor would be capable of unleas.h.i.+ng such a terrifying attack. Right now, he did not have the time to do anything else. He had to first subdue him. He was confident someone else could deal with Xiang Shaoyun.
But when the other Emperors charged forth to deal with Xiang Shaoyun, they found that he had vanished. It was also at this time that experts suddenly appeared from all directions, attacking the Rat a.s.sa.s.sins.
