Chapter 246: Hidden Title (1)

"Snort!"

A few black chains pierced through space like poisonous snakes, and then turned into a blurry black line, shooting towards "Xiao Yan", who was not far away.

The tips of the chains were exceptionally sharp and had mysterious runes covering them at the sharp end. The runes were spirally wrapped around the chain tips and exuded an aura of malevolence. It was evident that these deep-colored chains were not just ordinary chains.

Of course, these weapons were no ordinary iron chains, they were specially made and had the effect of restraining the soul bodies.

"Xiao Yan," who was originally on the run, did not dare to neglect the chains that pierced through space.

He was all too familiar with this, especially that iconic laugh. No one else in the entire Continent would laugh like that, except those dogs from the Hall of Souls!

The white flames in his palm swayed and turned into a projectile, shooting fiercely towards the black chain.

Boom!

Finally, they collided with a low sound, but there was no violent energy explosion, just a wave of black and white energy spreading silently.

Yao Lao's current strength was only at the level of a Dou Emperor, and although even a peak Dou Emperor would not be his match, he had not yet reached the Dou Ancestor realm after all.

The difference between a Dou Ancestor and a Dou Emperor was like heaven and earth, moreover, this Hall of Souls Protector had sent out a sneak attack.

Therefore, Yao Lao's resistance only stopped it for a moment.

Three chains pierced through the energy ripples and stretched out far enough to seal off all of Yao Lao's escape routes, and then began to envelop him like a ball.

"Jie Jie... I said you couldn't escape, but you still dare to resist!" A burst of extremely sinister laughter was heard coming from the black fog.

The black fog violently shook, and the sound of chains rang out as they wrapped around Xiao Yan's body, shaking him violently. Suddenly, a transparent white-haired old man was pulled out from him.

Yao Lao's departure caused Xiao Yan to regain control, and his majestic aura fell rapidly due to the extraction.

Seeing Yao Lao being dragged away by the chains with a pained expression, Xiao Yan couldn't help but cry out in anguish and anger.

"MASTER!"

"Get out of here!"

In response, he was met with a palm from Yao Lao, pushing him to the ground with a gentle force bursting against his shoulder.

"Jie Jie, this Protector originally wondered how such a high-quality soul body could be found in such a remote corner as the North-Western Region, but it turns out to be you, Yao Chen, a fish that escaped from the net. You were very lucky to escape back then, and by capturing you today... I'm sure it will make the Hall Chief very happy."

"Hmm? Do you want your disciple to leave? It's not that easy! This Protector will also accept the Heavenly Flame from your disciple, Jie Jie Jie."

As those words fell, another chain emerged from the black fog, hurtling towards Xiao Yan's falling figure.

As Xiao Ming appeared in front of Xiao Yan, the crowd had various reactions.

Many rushed to look at the place where he had been fighting with Yun Shan earlier.

They saw that there stood Yun Shan, standing in mid-air, his simple white robe was no longer neat and tidy, instead, there were many broken pieces. His feet were stepping on the void, sending out a wave of energy that calmed the turbulent Qi surging from his body.

Comparing Yun Shan's appearance to Xiao Ming's flawless and intact state, a trace of astonishment flashed through the crowd.

It appeared that Xiao Ming had the upper hand in their previous battle!

...

Medusa's eyes narrowed as she watched Xiao Ming appear in front of Xiao Yan, her thoughts unclear, while the Snake-People Tribe Grand Commander beside her could not help but want to rush forward to take revenge after seeing Xiao Ming.

However, reason made him stop this impulse.

That's because Xiao Ming's current power was too terrifying!

The crimson Dou Qi completely enveloped his body, emitting an aura that made the surrounding space tremble. This pressure was even stronger than that of Dou Ancestor Yun Shan, making everyone present feel oppressed.

They could not afford to mess with him!

When the Grand Commander thought about how Xiao Ming, being a Dou King, was able to knock him down earlier. If he now rushed forward, wouldn't he be courting death? Now he could only hope that Xiao Ming wouldn't notice them; otherwise, the consequences would be unimaginable.

"Later, when they start fighting, find an opportunity to take that Xiao Yan with you." Medusa suddenly instructed.

"Yes."

...

Looking at Xiao Ming, who appeared in front of him, Xiao Yan's eyes turned bright red and his voice hoarse as he said, "Xiao Ming, my Master has been captured by that black fog that suddenly appeared! Hurry up and help me save my Master! Didn't you promise to guarantee our safety until we were at the foot of the mountain?!"

"As long as you save my Master, the high-level alchemy inheritance and other things can be given to you."

At this moment, Xiao Yan's voice was extremely anxious.

'I only promised to protect you...' Xiao Ming said inwardly when he heard this.

To be honest, at this moment, Xiao Ming had a bit of a headache. He originally only wanted to use Yao Lao as bait. He thought that with Yao Lao's abilities, even if he encountered the Hall of Souls Protector, he would be able to hold out for a while, but he didn't expect that Yao Lao would be captured in one move.
