God of War Ye Fan: Sexy sister-in-law insisted on marrying me

Throughout the village, the surging black fog was being disrupted by the Sealing Formation, causing its fluctuation to come in waves!

But at this moment, as the Scorching Sun Emissary's golden blood spread across the ground, swiftly forming an Eight Trigrams Formation Drawing, the ground itself seemed to begin trembling slightly as the black fog churned even more violently.

An eerie, malevolent aura started to permeate the air.

"Finally... Is the Evil Cult about to be released?"

A smug look appeared in the eyes of the Scorching Sun Emissary!

Once the Evil Cult was released, he would be the greatest contributor.

By then, serving by the side of the Evil Cult, even if he didn't gain the favor of the higher-ups in the Soul Hall, the benefits he could get from those ancient Evil Cults would definitely be substantial.

If all else fails, the Scorching Sun Emissary was even prepared to plan for a "rebirth."

Previously, the Evil Cult always needed to attach to the skeletons of the Ancient Fierce Beasts, but after the seal was broken, a new host would inevitably be required.

To become stronger, the Scorching Sun Emissary didn't mind offering up his own body, allowing the Evil Cult to coexist with him.

In the entire canyon, the Martial Arts Experts hidden in every corner could feel the restlessness of the Evil Cult beneath the ground.

Even this Evil Cult seemed very powerful; a mere fluctuation of the black fog seemed to influence everyone's state of mind.

"Don't confront the Evil Cult directly later! Our target is the Fragment under the seal!"

"If we can snatch the Soul Bones inside and gain some heaven-defying talents, that would be not bad either!"

"Everyone, be especially wary of the Ximen family from the west; they might take this opportunity to make a move on us in the dark!"

"Even if we can't get to the Fragment under the Evil Cult, everybody be alert in our actions later. We can target a few weaker families and snatch their treasures; we can't leave empty-handed!"

…

Though the official battle had not yet begun, the thoughts of the Martial Arts Experts lurking around were already becoming active.

In the Martial World, it has always been survival of the fittest.

What everyone needs now is resources. Only with sufficient resources can a family grow stronger and gain more say, thereby obtaining even more resources.

Only then, at the convocation of the Immortal Gate's conference, will there be a chance to obtain the Immortal Path Guide and be chosen by the Immortal Gate to become one of their own!

Outside the crowd, behind a hill, a man in a golden robe led a group of people hiding in the back, staring intently at the actions of the Scorching Sun Emissary, frowning deeply.

This man in the golden robe was none other than the man who had made a move against Ye Fan in the Death Sea Area of the Southern Great Xia's Sea Domain.

The man's name was Xuanming, and he was also an Envoy under the Soul Hall, in terms of status, he was about on par with Scorching Sun, Qing Yuan, and others.

However, when Xuanming was handling a matter in the past, the Scorching Sun Emissary deliberately withheld the truth from Xuanming, resulting in the near annihilation of Xuanming's subordinates.

Subsequently, Xuanming was punished and "exiled" to oversee the Southern Wilderness's Sea Domain of Great Xia, keeping watch over the Death Sea Area.

But Xuanming had always remembered that grudge!

Therefore, when Ye Fan escaped from the Great Xia South Wilderness's Death Sea Area, and his strength was such that even the Four Great Superpowers couldn't deal with him, it was precisely the crucial information that Xuanming deliberately withheld from the Scorching Sun Emissary.

The Scorching Sun Emissary had been stationed in the Capital for many years, reaping countless benefits, yet he had caused Xuanming to drift in the Southern Wilderness's Sea Domain for decades!

This grudge must be avenged!

"Xuanming, the Scorching Sun Emissary is quite skilled. If he continues to use such blood to disrupt the Formation, the Evil Cult in Miaojiang might really be released by him, wouldn't it? By then..."

At Xuanming's side, a subordinate started to speak but suddenly felt the air turn sharply colder and immediately shut his mouth.

When he looked up at Xuanming, he saw his face, ghastly and livid, "Hmph! On such a great day, the Scorching Sun Emissary is working so hard; how can we just stand by and watch? We must lend a hand!"

"Ah?"

For a moment, Xuanming's subordinate didn't understand!

The two were mortal enemies; could it be that Xuanming would actually help the Scorching Sun Emissary release the Evil Cult and give such a significant accomplishment to the Scorching Sun Emissary? That's impossible!

However, after seeing the sinister look in Xuanming's eyes, the subordinate immediately grasped his master's intention.

Help the Scorching Sun Emissary release the Evil Cult?

That would be an impossibility!

With a cold snort, Xuanming's hand ignited a scarlet Rune Talisman, which he then hurled toward the distant ground!

The moment the Rune Talisman hit the ground, it formed the phantom of a Golden Rat that swiftly devoured all the Scorching Sun Emissary's golden blood on the surface.

Sizzle!

The Golden Rat ingested the golden blood as quickly as a vacuum cleaner.

Originally, the Scorching Sun Emissary's golden blood had formed something akin to an Eight Trigrams Formation Drawing, which had already torn a slit in the Evil Cult's own Seal. The spreading black mist of the Evil Cult began to devour the souls of those living in the village, perhaps even their life force.

But as a portion of the Scorching Sun Emissary's blood was consumed, his array was disrupted, and the restraint it had on the Sealing Formation vanished in an instant!

Hum!

The Sealing Formation regained its power, the golden aura surged, and in an instant, most of the black mist was crushed to shreds! It seemed even the air emitted a furious whine!

Splat!

The Golden Blood Array was connected to the Scorching Sun Emissary; his golden blood being consumed, the Scorching Sun Emissary himself was injured and spat out a mouthful of fresh blood.

"Ah! Damn it, who... Who is screwing over Laotzu?"

The Scorching Sun Emissary, seeing his blood rapidly disappearing from the ground, exploded in a fit of rage right there.

That golden blood was his core Essence Blood, and if it all disappeared, his strength would be severely affected.

While roaring, he could not care less about his image; the Scorching Sun Emissary lay on the ground, frantically sucking in the remaining blood into his mouth.

Damn it!

If he didn't suck it up, it would all be drained by some damned thing!

Hiss!

As the Scorching Sun Emissary rapidly absorbed the blood, behind a thicket, he immediately spotted the Golden Rat that had grown to the size of a pig!

Having absorbed the Scorching Sun Emissary's golden blood, the creature seemed to have increased its own strength, plump and round, it even audaciously belched in front of the Scorching Sun Emissary upon his arrival!

"Damn it! Ming Xuanming, it turns out to be you, bastard, pulling the strings here, come out to Laotzu immediately... Aaaargh... I knew it, why the Rune Talismans I've been setting up kept disappearing one after another…"

The Scorching Sun Emissary was almost driven insane, as he furiously punched towards the Golden Rat!

The Scorching Sun Emissary was certain, the only person who could use Rune Talismans to control the Golden Rat, was Xuanming alone.

This guy had actually used the Golden Rat to steal his own Golden Essence Blood... in the end, the benefits were all going to be snatched by Xuanming!

"You damned fool, it's one thing to seek revenge normally! But on such a significant issue as releasing the Evil Cult, to play tricks behind the scenes, aren't you afraid of the Soul Hall's pursuit and accountability?"
