Chapter 173: The Magic Continent’s Dark Mage
Ka Er shook his shoulders. The feathered wings behind him instantly flew down, transforming into a white feathered crow that perched on his shoulder.
“Originally, we planned to take our time, and you would have run into us eventually. I didn’t expect you little rats to run away, so I had to come over and intercept you myself. Don’t rush to leave; my companions will be here soon.”
Mu Xue, hiding under the invisibility cloak, couldn’t help but tremble: 【 A Chu, this person’s level is so strong, at least stronger than Wei An and the others. And there are three more people heading towards us! 】
【 Xiao Xue, was the person you sensed earlier not this one? 】
Mu Xue: 【 No, only three wizards at the same level as Wei An and the others. 】
It seems that the circular object Mu Xue sensed earlier was likely his hiding place.
Sang Chu looked at Ka Er, calmly controlling the man-eating vines and man-eating flowers to set up a large formation underground. Tu You had already burrowed into the hovercar within Sang Chu’s optical computer and awakened Meng Wei An and the others. As soon as Sang Chu gave the order, they would all come out to face the enemy.
“Esteemed Lord, we are merely a group of escorts, and the medicine this grandmother is carrying is not particularly valuable. If you like it, I can offer it to you on her behalf, and only ask that you spare our lives.”
‘Hiss—’
The person driving the carriage arrived. It was a dark wizard wearing a black wizard robe embroidered with a black rose pattern.
“Little rats, we want what you’re escorting, and we want the people too!”
At this moment, a withered hand lifted the carriage curtain, and a woman completely wrapped up emerged from within.
Her eyes were beautiful, a purple like glazed tile, and the more one looked, the more one liked them.
“Sang Sang!”
Xi Rui immediately covered Sang Chu’s eyes and pulled her back a few steps. Xi Rui’s elf eyes instantly turned white-pupiled, and with a burst of energy collision, the air exploded with light.
Rui Zhi’s lips curved slightly beneath her veil. Although she didn’t speak, her determined demeanor told everyone that her goal had been achieved.
Ku Si, who was driving the carriage, said with dissatisfaction, “Hurry up and attack. Others will come to snatch the prey later.”
Sai Yue sat in the carriage, her lazy voice drifting out, “Don’t worry. I’ve opened all the teleportation gates in the vicinity. Anyone who dares to approach will enter Hell. Boss should want to refine them all into undead. No rush, take your time.”
“Sang Sang?”
Xiao Yi Fei, Sang Jing Wen, and Yun Xiang gathered around, looking at Sang Chu with worried expressions. However, her eyes were vacant, and she showed no reaction no matter how they called her.
Xi Rui handed Sang Chu over to Yun Xiang to support her. “Grandmother, please watch Sang Sang. Xiao Yi Fei, Sang Jing Wen, you two entangle the person blocking us with the magic beasts. Nai Shen, Ri Peng, the three of us will attack that witch. As long as she dies, Sang Sang’s soul can be reclaimed.”
Ku Si listened to the woman holding a bow and arrow giving orders, completely ignoring him. He couldn’t help but laugh, “Little rats, have you forgotten about me?”
Xi Rui snorted coldly, “Attack!”
Xiao Yi Fei and Sang Jing Wen each controlled flames and flying arrows, directing them towards Ka Er. However, he merely raised a hand, and the magic array in his palm instantly lit up, intercepting all the attacks.
“Overestimating yourselves. Go!”
Ka Er waved his hand in return, and the flames and flying arrows turned around and attacked Xiao Yi Fei and the others!
“Holy crap! What the hell is this!”
Xiao Yi Fei rolled to dodge the incoming flames and flying arrows, while Sang Jing Wen increased his control over the arrows, attempting to regain control.
Meanwhile, on the other side, Xi Rui unleashed a volley of arrows. Rui Zhi stood calmly in place. As the arrows reached her, a black gate appeared, swallowing them all.
“Gate of Hell?”
Grandma Yun Xiang looked at the black gate, cold sweat beading on her forehead.
Sai Yue jumped down from the carriage with a smile. A perfectly tailored white dress accentuated her graceful figure flawlessly.
Her waist-length, big wavy hair paired with red lips made her exquisitely alluring and captivating.
Sai Yue’s fingers were slender, with sharp, long blood-red nails. She gently stroked the black Gate of Hell and said in a gentle voice, “I didn’t expect anyone to recognize it. It’s a shame I can’t send all of you to Hell to feed the Hellhounds.”
She suddenly said to Ka Er, “Boss, why don’t you give one to me? My little darlings haven’t eaten human flesh in a long time. Let them have a taste.”
“One person isn’t enough for them to even gnaw on. Let them starve. The hungrier they are, the stronger their attack power will be when released.”
Sai Yue played with her beautiful fingertips and shrugged, “Alright, you’re the boss, I’ll listen to you.”
Time ticked by, and Xi Rui, Sang Jing Wen, and the others began to show signs of fatigue. They couldn’t even get close to the enemy, and their formation started to falter.
Sai Yue looked back at Rui Zhi, frowning slightly in confusion. “What’s wrong with you today? You’re so silent. Also, when can you control that woman?”
Rui Zhi looked up at her, remaining silent. She slowly walked forward. Sai Yue looked at her, puzzled, “Rui Zhi, what are you doing?”
‘Hiss—’
“Are you crazy!”
Rui Zhi’s dry hand slashed across Sai Yue’s neck, drawing blood. Before Sai Yue could react, Ka Er noticed something was wrong.
“Not good, Rui Zhi is controlled!”
He struck Rui Zhi with a palm, and her body instantly flew backward, large amounts of blood flowing from the corners of her mouth.
Sai Yue: “Boss, Boss…”
After Sang Chu returned to her body, she directly took the magic card from Tu You and completed the blood contract in one go.
Sai Yue uncontrollably attacked Ka Er and Ku Si. A sea of Gates of Hell appeared one after another. Sai Yue’s face turned pale, and her skin visibly withered.
“Stop, stop!”
She screamed and begged, but Sang Chu, with a blank expression, continued to control her body to summon the Gates of Hell.
“Sai Yue!”
Ka Er glared at Sang Chu and then summoned undead. Unexpectedly, the surrounding man-eating vines roared and swept in. Meng Wei An and Liao Tian emerged from the hovercar and attacked him.
Seeing this, Xi Rui quickly fired her arrows.
Ku Si, seeing this, tried to step forward to help, but a Gate of Hell silently appeared behind him. A three-meter-tall Hellhound lunged forward and bit him in half, swallowing him whole.
Ka Er roared upon seeing the Hellhound appear, “Are you crazy? Do you know what this is? If you release it, we’ll all die!”
Sang Chu smiled, “No, *you* will die.”
As soon as she finished speaking, Ka Er saw the Hellhound lunging at him and quickly fused with his feathered crow, attempting to fly away.
Sang Chu saw through his escape route, and a Gate of Hell opened above his head.
Ka Er quickly turned around, and three hellhounds descended from above, instantly devouring him.
