Chapter 268: 178. The Fox-Eared Girl Who Appears Like a Ghost
Ninth Elder!
At the sight of the hunchbacked masked person, the words “Ninth Elder” appeared in Lin Zichen’s mind for the first time.
The man in the mask who had turned into a pile of flesh before his death had called out loudly for help from the so-called Ninth Elder.
The figure of this present hunchbacked person with white hair cascading down his back indeed fit the image of the Ninth Elder very well.
“Buzz!”
“Buzz!”
“Buzz!”
Suddenly, several vines shot out explosively.
They wrapped around Lin Zichen in an instant, binding him to the spot so that he could not move.
Lin Zichen frowned and immediately exploded with Qi-Blood, attempting to break free from the shackles of these vines.
But he found no matter how he exploded with Qi-Blood, he could not break free.
The vines on his body looked very slender, only as thick as a finger.
Yet, their strength was far superior to the thick vines previously controlled by the masked man.
This indicated that the biological level of the hunchbacked masked person was much higher than that of the masked man!
Lin Zichen suppressed the panic in his heart and watched the hunchbacked masked person in front of him with wary eyes.
The figure was hunchbacked, the skin was dry and wrinkled, and the hair was white.
No biological pressure could be felt coming from the body.
The mask worn on the face had a very conspicuous clover pattern etched into it.
Seeing the clover pattern on the mask, Lin Zichen couldn’t help but feel a sinking sensation in his heart.
The Sect Hierarch of the sub-sect had an Ordinary Ninth Order Great Perfection biological level, and the mask was etched with a single clover pattern.
The biological level of the masked man was Advanced Sixth Order, and his mask was etched with a double clover pattern.
And the mask of this present hunchbacked person was etched with a triple clover pattern.
What did this mean?
It meant that the person could very possibly be a Rare-level Fighter!
A fighter at the same level as Yuan Dongzhi!
“Yuan Dongzhi, how come you are here?”
“...”
Following the voice, Lin Zichen gazed into the distance.
He then noticed the hunchbacked masked person who had been earlier pierced by water projectiles standing unharmed atop the towering tree ahead, gazing up into the distance with a deep and ghostly look.
Following the direction of the hunchbacked masked person’s gaze,
Lin Zichen saw Yuan Dongzhi, dressed in a blue and white porcelain cheongsam.
At that moment, Yuan Dongzhi was floating elegantly above a stream.
Her feet stood upon an uprising water jet.
A pair of cold and beautiful eyes reflected a domineering glance.
Her presence was exceptionally strong.
“The moment Lin Zichen made a splash in the military area, I knew you from the Divine Plant Cult would not be able to sit still, so I’ve been secretly guarding him, waiting for you to make a move,” said Yuan Dongzhi indifferently.
After hearing this, the hunchbacked masked person laughed and said, “Using my own strategy against me? Interesting.”
Then, he continued with a calm demeanor, “Let Yao Heling come out. I alone am more than enough to deal with you two little girls.”
“Heh, how arrogant,” scoffed Yuan Dongzhi. “Do you think it’s still the same as in the past?”
“I am no longer weaker than you.
“There is no need to involve Yao Heling.”
No sooner had her words fallen than the water jet under Yuan Dongzhi’s feet suddenly expanded dozens of times. Countless water blades and spears separated from it, instantly filling the sky.
“Go!”
As this command sounded,
In the next second, the water blades and spikes floating behind Yuan Dongzhi targeted the hunchbacked old man and shot out speedily like a barrage of arrows.
“Rise!”
The hunchbacked masked person shouted loudly, summoning countless vines from the forest below to surge skyward, blocking all the incoming water blades and spikes.
Then, he immediately controlled these vines to attack Yuan Dongzhi, covering the sky and moving towards her in an eclipsing manner.
With a thought, Yuan Dongzhi condensed a 40-meter-long water blade from the water jet below her. She gripped it tightly with both hands and swung it powerfully, instantly splitting the enveloping net of vines in two.
“Boom!”
The ground beneath the feet of the hunchbacked masked person suddenly shook violently.
