Chapter 1686: Betrayal (1/2)
Badi was a member of the Three-Eyed Race, and Mo Luo only cared about him. He didn’t care if Gutas and the others lived or died.
Trusi’s promise had invigorated him. He waved his hand and ordered calmly, “Kill them all!”
The other four Night Ghosts rushed Gutas, Kun Luo, Xinda, and Tia immediately after hearing that order.
Trusi of the Bone Race chuckled at Qin Lie while his eyes glowed dark green. He said, “Of all the places you could to be, you chose the Bone Race’s galaxy…”
“Boom!”
Bloodline power suddenly surged from the short Mo Luo. His third eye instantly instantly glowed bright.
An invisible power suddenly wrapped around Qin Lie, causing him to activate his own bloodline power.
Qin Lie’s bloodline energy swelled uncontrollably.
He immediately returned to his Blood Soul Beast form. Sparks kept flying out of his his bluish green pupils.
“Trusi…”
Qin Lie shot Mo Luo a cold look before staring at the rank nine Bone Race clansman.
For some reason, he sensed something familiar from that Trusi.
It was almost as if… he had come into contact with that Trusi before.
However, he couldn’t remember when he had interacted with this Bone Race clansman no matter how he tried.
The only Bone Race clansman he knew was Salleh.
“Master…”
Gutas called out to Qin Lie softly as he stared at his former comrades.
He wanted to know if Qin Lie was planning to stay behind and fight, or do their best to escape this place just like Sarto.
He wanted to know his intentions.
“We fight!”
Qin Lie transmitted his will to his soul servants through their soul connection without looking back at Gutas.
Gutas immediately activated his bloodline power, wisps of gray white deathly energy flowed out of his skeleton.
He was a Bone Race clansman, but he was different from Trusi. He might’ve been exiled by his own race, but… he didn’t really hate them all that much.
The Night Ghosts were clearly planning to attack the Bone Race, and he was no longer a part of them since the moment he became Qin Lie’s soul servant.
Qin Lie also shared a good relationship with Salleh. If he could help Sarto and the Bone Race survive this crisis with Qin Lie’s help… he might yet have a shot at returning to his race.
Gutas was immediately filled with killing intent when he thought until this point.
“Are you really… not on their side?”
At first, Sarto thought that Qin Lie was in cahoots with the Night Ghosts. However, the Night Ghosts were obviously attacking them. This made him wonder if he had made a mistake.
“I’m not like Trusi. I tried my best to not harm my kin even when I was still a member of the Night Ghosts!” Gutas yelled.
Gutas wrapped his death energy around an Earth Demon Race warrior while he was still speaking.
The warrior started losing lifeforce rapidly the moment he was entangled.
Sarto shot Gutas a doubtful glance, but the latter didn’t look like he was pretending at all. Eventually, he decided to believe in Qin Lie and Gutas.
“This is our territory. Have the Night Ghosts forgotten how many bodies they left behind during their last excursion?”
After realizing that Qin Lie really was an ally, he calmed down and measured both sides’ strength. Suddenly, he was no longer in a hurry to leave.
“Crack crack! Crack crack!”
A large number of low rank Bone Race clansmen were being killed by the Night Ghosts all around him. Their skeletons were falling apart.
“Death energy! Fever! Enhance skeleton!”
Colorful energy circulated around Sarto’s skeleton as he executed two unique bloodline abilities in a row.
“Whoosh whoosh whoosh!”
A great amount of death energy turned into cold white mist and enveloped all the nearby Bone Race clansmen.
When the mist touched the low rank Bone Race clansmen, their bones creaked loudly and grew stronger.
The fear in their eyes was also replaced with bloodthirst and violence when Sarto’s “Fever” bloodline ability overcame them.
Suddenly, the retreating Bone Race clansmen did a one hundred and eighty degrees turn.
“We fight to the death!” Sarto shouted.
“We fight to the death!”
All surviving Bone Race clansmen echoed his cry and spirit.
