Chapter 1180: Ripping Pretended Friendly Masks (1/2)

Disdain filled Master Blood Spirit’s face as he said, “Luo Wanxiang? If Grand Elder Mo Heng hadn’t suddenly disappeared, I doubt that he would have dared to openly confine us like this.”

“Mo Heng!” Both Li Langfeng and Li Jing felt a wave of respect as they heard Mo Heng’s name.

After his recent duel in the Shatter Battlefield, Mo Heng, who had only entered the middle God domain not long ago, had joined Qu Yi from the Void Spirit Society and Chu Yuan from the Heaven Span Pavilion, and become one of the greatest figures among humanity.

Even though his cultivation base was still lower than that of the other peak experts, he would definitely be among the handful of the most prominent human experts when he entered the late God domain.

For this reason, his prestige within the Ancient Fragmentary Star Palace had already risen above Luo Wanxiang and Chu Rui’s.

He was the grand elder, while those two were vice sectmasters. Technically speaking, his status was lower than theirs.

However, in the eyes of the others, his status was second only to Ji Cang’s now.

Li Jing sighed softly. “It’s too bad that like the sectmaster, Mo Heng has also disappeared.”

...

Floating by a glowing spatial rift, Nie Tian gazed off into the distant starry river, his face grim. “That’s the place.”

Beside him, Pei Qiqi kept the spatial rift open as one figure after another flew out of it.

Among them were Xie Qian from the Water Moon Sect, who was at the late Saint domain, Jing Feiyang, Quan Zixuan, and Qu Mingde, who were at the middle Saint domain, and Dong Qisong and Zhongli Jian, who were at the early Saint domain.

Six Saint domain experts!

Nie Tian pointed into the distance and said, “Shatter that ward.”

Upon hearing this, Xie Qian nodded slightly and unleashed his late Saint domain power.

A shield could be seen enveloping the vast meteor where the Blood Sect was currently located. The shield seemed to be a strong obstacle that was preventing those from the Blood Sect from leaving.

At this moment, as Xie Qian cast a secret magic, nine sparkling rivers shot out of him. As they soared through the dark void, they rapidly interwove into a wondrous formation.

That was when a strong cleansing aura that could wash off any impurity in heaven and earth was released.

As the river formation suddenly exploded, countless sparkling droplets that looked like tiny silver pearls were sent flying in all directions.

Infiltrated by the droplets, the faint yellow ward immediately lost its effect, like dirt that was washed off by a large amount of water.

The Saint domain expert who was well-versed in earth power and had warned Master Blood Spirit from leaving earlier burst into a flaming rage. “Who is it?!”

“Me! Nie Tian!” An explosive, domineering voice came from behind a secluded meteor in the distant starry river.

In the next moment, Nie Tian and the others flew over.

The Saint domain watchers Luo Wanxiang had planted to prevent Master Blood Spirit and Li Langfeng from escaping gasped.

“Nie Tian!”

“He’s here!”

“The seventh Son of the Stars!”

In contrast, Yu Tong, Lin He, and the other juniors from the Blood Sect that knew Nie Tian grew deeply excited. “It’s Nie Tian!”

The same went for Li Jing. A hint of elation appeared in her eyes as she said, “You have such keen senses, Patriarch. He actually is here!”

With a complicated look on his face, Master Blood Spirit nodded slightly and said, “Yeah.”

What Li Jing didn’t know was that in order to gain Nie Tian’s Blood Essence and expand his lifespan, he had allowed the Spirit Pearl to leave a restrictive spell in his true soul.

This was why he had been able to sense Nie Tian’s arrival so shrewdly.

However, now that it had been done, Master Blood Spirit didn’t regret doing it.
