It must be admitted, Su Youzhu was very scared just now.

Because most girls are naturally afraid of the dark, especially in such a pitch-black Ancient Ruins where who knows what kind of ghostly things might jump out. Fear of the unknown is magnified to the extreme.

Of course, the most important thing is, that guy isn't here.

There's no feeling of reassurance.

However, the moment she heard that detestable voice, her eyes turned icy cold.

Butcher also suddenly tensed up, like a giant bear hunting leisurely in the forest, the blood of the Ancient God Clan flowed in his body, vaguely accumulating ancient and wild strength.

The burning stick faintly illuminated the figures in front of them, shrouded in shadows.

Eight Vajra Arhats, like an impenetrable wall, blocked them in front.

Plus two female bodyguards from Ying Province.

One followed the Sword Sect Path, the other the Ghost Slayer Path.

"Honestly, I'm very surprised. We explored this Ancient Ruins for eight years before we got a bronze compass to unlock the seal of the Alchemy Matrix and reach the true treasure site."

Si Wei'an toyed with the lighter in his hand, suddenly igniting it, the flame illuminating a face with a sinister smile: "I'm very curious, where did you get the bronze compass? There's no way that fool Third Master could have obtained it."

Jing Shangxiu leaned on his cane, a ghastly smile on his face, eerily saying, "You don't say, I just tried a divination and came up with nothing. This little girl isn't simple."

The response to them was the vibrating hum of a Tang Blade.

"That's because I have a very good teacher."

Su Youzhu's eyes were icy cold, indifferently saying, "You dimwits took eight years collectively; he alone was already close to the truth. If it weren't for the unstable dimensions back then, it wouldn't have been your turn."

Butcher was shocked; only now did he realize the real reason the boss was pursuing them.

Jing Shangxiu was momentarily stunned upon hearing this.

Si Wei'an's pupils trembled imperceptibly; the smile on his face unchanged: "Impossible. You're trying to test me with rhetoric? Such little cleverness is suitable for deceiving a boyfriend."

Su Youzhu coldly said, "Sorry, my boyfriend isn't easily fooled."

Butcher was about to transform into Qilin, only to be restrained by her gaze.

At this moment, Jing Shangxiu's pupils turned white, as if he divined something, his face drastically changing: "Master! Run! Kill these two immediately! Don't waste words with them! Kill them! This person might know our secret, she's likely here for revenge. Leave no survivors, kill them quickly! Yingzi, Jianzi, take action!"

After saying this, he turned and walked away with his cane, very urgently.

Si Wei'an had never seen this old man so out of control, raising his eyebrow slightly.

"What a pity."

He put his hands in his pockets, turned around: "Then just... kill them."

Though he valued talent, having come into contact with the innermost secret meant they could only die.

As his words fell, the eight Vajra Arhats suddenly erupted with chaotic Qi.

These monks from Xingjue Temple somehow gathered the Qi released from each other, almost creating an invisible, intangible domain.

This was almost the effect of a Qi Realm of a Fifth-Order Realm King!

Swish!

Yingzi drew the Iron Sword from her back, chaotic Sword Qi swirling around the blade, vibrating incessantly.

While Jianzi drew a Tachi, her body suddenly virtualizing, transforming into a fleeting black shadow!

Su Youzhu gripped the blood-colored Tang Blade, also disappearing like a phantom.

Clang! Clang! Clang!

Illusory black shadows crisscrossed in the dark, the blood-colored Tang Blade and the pitch-black Tachi clashing in mid-air.

Evidently, it was just a normal confrontation, but time and space shattered like a mirror, with countless rifts crisscrossing!

After dozens of blade clashes, time and space silently and seamlessly solidified like amber, the world lost its colors, as if black ink spread out, falling into a silent abyss.

The core abilities of the Ghost Slayer Path are Divine Speed and the Time-Space Gap.

The former accelerates time, while the latter can see through the weak points of all things.

At the First Order, they obtain the ability of Virtualization.

At the Second Rank, they have slashes that shatter space; the Third Rank possesses brief Space Jumping abilities.

Upon reaching the Fourth-tier Shura, they gain the extremely powerful ability of Time-Space Freeze!

And this time, it was two overlapping domains colliding!

Under such circumstances, the strong survive, while the weak collapse!

With a cracking sound!

Jianzi's Tachi suddenly shattered, her right arm severed by a fierce rift, blood spraying wildly.

At the same time, a fierce Sword Qi surged forth, its light illuminating the dark stone vault.

Su Youzhu leapt instantly, the beautiful eyes beneath her cat-face mask devoid of any emotion, Divine Speed Force accelerated her surroundings like a breached flood, suddenly unleashing countless fierce blade lights.

Boom!

Time and space suddenly shattered, engulfing the Sword Qi.

Yingzi recoiled in fright, narrowly retreating a step, but her cheek was still cut, blood flowing freely.

Su Youzhu landed lightly, tightly gripping the blood-colored long blade, spirituality burning furiously.

Divine Speed Force enhanced to the extreme, next comes the Combined Skill!

Many years ago, her teacher's words seemed to echo in her ears: "Youzhu, let me tell you secretly, Inheritance Path isn't as simple as you think. Although that old guy, King of Qing, is crazy, he's truly talented. Do you know what a Combined Skill is? Different extraordinary abilities can be combined; this secret I tell only to you. Okay, no need to practice now. Let's go, I'll take you to watch my son play ball."
