Immortality Through Array Formations

Chapter 1643: Chapter 854: Blood Zombie

Mo Hua pretended to be controlled by the Pupil Skill, rolled a few times on the ground, rubbed his eyes until they were red, then struggled a bit, tilted his head, and ”fainted” straight away.

The ”acting” was a little exaggerated.

Master Xiao had some doubts.

The reaction of Mo Hua to the Pupil Skill was a bit strange, it seemed somewhat delayed...

But he did not doubt for long.

Because so far, no one could withstand his Blood Prison Pupil Skill.

Gu Changhuai from the Gu Family, and Xia Canonical Official from the Xia family, both Golden Core cultivators, were no match, let alone a mere Foundation Establishment.

Maybe because this kid had exceptional talent, his Divine Sense was a bit special, so his appearance under the Pupil Skill was different from others.

He was an odd little rascal to begin with.

After being hit by the Pupil Skill, some strange reactions seemed quite normal as well.

Because he was always odd, Master Xiao, on the contrary, found it unsurprising.

He walked over, checked Mo Hua’s breathing, found that he was still alive, but his Divine Sense had withdrawn deeply, almost imperceptible, clearly showing that his Sea of Consciousness had suffered considerable damage.

Only then did Master Xiao nod, took out the Taoist Court’s Spirit-binding Lock, bound Mo Hua, and tossed him to Water Yama.

”Watch him well.”

Water Yama’s face turned grim: ”Not going to kill him?”

Master Xiao sneered, ”Kill him for what? Use your mind a bit, keeping this brat around has great use for me.”

Water Yama dared not defy, nodded and said: ”Yes.”

At this moment, the Jade Pendants on the chests of Gu Changhuai and Xia Canonical Official lit up, emitting a lustrous glow, dispelling the Evil Qi.

The two also barely recovered from the intimidation of the Blood Prison Pupil Skill.

Master Xiao was a bit surprised, but thinking that both were from prominent families, accompanied by some Spiritual Artifacts or Treasures for protection, it made sense.

”Mo Hua!”

Xia Canonical Official saw Mo Hua, bound by the Spirit-binding Lock, unclear of mind, unconscious in Master Xiao’s hands, and his expression grew somber.

Gu Changhuai also gazed sternly at Master Xiao, his eyes carrying killing intent.

”Xiao Zhenhai, let Mo Hua go,” Gu Changhuai said coldly.

Master Xiao chuckled lightly: ”It took a great deal of effort to catch this young lad. How could I let him go easily?”

Xia Canonical Official also spoke coldly: ”Master Xiao, didn’t you say we should join forces? Is this your way of ’joining forces’?”

Master Xiao shook his head and said: ”Teaming up with you two is indeed true. It’s just that I am always cautious, and without some leverage, I’m uneasy working with others. Moreover, this rascal is quite mysterious, making it baffling. Letting him wander freely makes me anxious. Now it’s better...”

Master Xiao gripped Mo Hua’s collar and lifted him slightly, ”With this brat in my hand, tied up, as leverage, I’m relieved...”

Xia Canonical Official frowned, ”What do you intend to do?”

”Give me the Fish Bone Token,” Master Xiao said.

Xia Canonical Official’s eyelid twitched slightly, ”If I give it to you, will you let Mo Hua go?”

Master Xiao laughed, ”How is that possible? I already said, getting hold of this kid was hard-won, I can only promise that if you give me the token, I won’t make things difficult for him, otherwise...”

Master Xiao’s pale, cold hand gripped Mo Hua’s neck, with a cold smile on his face.

Xia Canonical Official hesitated for a long time, ultimately worried about Mo Hua’s safety, sighed and said: ”Fine, I’ll give you the token.”

Master Xiao’s expression lit up with joy and promised: ”Rest assured, Xia Canonical Official, I also quite like this little brother, as long as you give me the token, I won’t do anything to him.”

He then smiled slightly and said: ”Originally, with the token in your hand or in mine, it’s all the same. Only, I’m no longer the Supervisor as I was before, being a wanted criminal by the Taoist Court after leaving the Dragon King Temple, I inevitably need to be more cautious and vigilant...”

Xia Canonical Official’s gaze sank as he took out the Fish Bone Token and tossed it to Master Xiao.

Master Xiao nodded, ”That’s much better; minor misunderstandings, please don’t let them dwell in your hearts. The sooner we leave this eerie White Bone Path, the better.”

He did not truly wish to sever ties, just wanted a means to restrain Gu Changhuai and the others.

This White Bone Path is mysterious, it’s unknown what dangers we might encounter, having one more person means one more support.

But now his identity is exposed, not having some leverage to threaten Gu Changhuai and the others would certainly result in backlash.

Xia Canonical Official was hard to predict, but that Gu Changhuai had a ferocious nature and once given the chance, he would undoubtedly find every way possible to take his life.

Master Xiao and Gu Changhuai worked together for many years, understanding Gu Changhuai’s disposition and means, so even if Master Xiao has been suppressing Gu Changhuai all along, he didn’t dare truly underestimate him.

”Let’s go,” Master Xiao said.

Gu Changhuai and Xia Canonical Official could only nod.

Beside them, Ouyang Feng and Hua Qianqian wanted to save Mo Hua, but were powerless; they could only sigh helplessly at this moment.

After saying so, Master Xiao turned around, glanced at the unconscious Mo Hua, and instructed Water Yama:

”You carry him.”

Water Yama’s face looked as if he had swallowed a fly.

But ultimately, he obediently carried Mo Hua on his shoulder, though his actions were not gentle.

Master Xiao frowned, ”Be careful, if you hurt this young lad, I’ll hold you accountable.”

Water Yama’s face hesitated, nodded and said: ”Yes...”

In this way, the group temporarily called a truce and set off again.

But this time, the initiative rested entirely with Master Xiao.

Master Xiao took the lead, Water Yama following behind with Mo Hua on his back.

And with Mo Hua as ”leverage,” Gu Changhuai and the others followed behind, not daring to act rashly.

Xiao Tianquan kept a distance from Master Xiao, walking together with Xia Canonical Official.

The group then proceeded along the White Bone Path.
