"Night Alliance Leader, you really don't give me any face," a low, complaining voice said. "I've already told you that we should keep to ourselves and not interfere with each other."

"You, on the contrary, blow up my corpse puppets and even wiped out my incompetent subordinates."

"Now look what's happened, aren't you dumbfounded?"

The darkness seemed to echo its words, growing ever more sticky.

It was as if countless hands were crawling up the outer wall of the safe zone from all directions, leaving handprints.

"You can't get out now, and you can't find me. You can only stay here in the darkness and slowly wear yourself down."

"Once your spirits break down, I can finally enjoy the despair of being trapped."

"Speaking of which, I have to thank Alliance Leader Ye for killing all my men."

"With nothing to do, I feel much more at ease and can focus on playing with you all."

Hu Liena bit her lower lip. "What exactly do you want to do!"

"Don't be in such a hurry, Holy Maiden," Leng Yue said flippantly. "I just want to see you all collapse."

"If possible, I'd like to play with your and the little angel's bodies some more!"

"Keep dreaming!" Hu Liena snapped.

"Trying to make us despair? Not so easy, is it?" Ye Hua's eyes narrowed slightly.

"Is that so?" The voice was indifferent. "Can you break through the darkness?"

Ye Hua waved his hand, and the soul bone of the Golden Dragon King's left arm lit up.

The gilding extends from the knuckles to the shoulder blades, its domineering golden light dazzling.

【Dragon King Slayer】!

A crescent-shaped blade of light slices vertically, brutally crushing everything in its path!

The darkness was cleaved open, and moonlight poured in, illuminating the outline of the mountain road ahead.

Leng Yue's laughter abruptly stopped.

"As expected of the Night Alliance Leader, no wonder even the Abyss was defeated." Leng Yue said in surprise.

"But what can we do? The darkness cannot be cut off."

Immediately, darkness, like a writhing creature, closed up and swallowed the moonlight once more.

It was faster than I expected; it was only a matter of blinking twice.

Leng Yue cleared her throat, her tone playful, "It seems you really want to find me."

"How about we play a game?"

"The poor little thing who just died is truly tragic."

"A hardworking and dedicated employee was exploited to death by his boss!"

"Now—I'm going to wake him up."

Darkness surged forth!

"He will roam in this darkness, killing and resurrecting Happiness."

"Who should we kill? Our superiors? Our colleagues? Or some high-ranking VIP?"

"Yes, other dead people will do the same thing in order to be resurrected!"

"Each round of attacks will only stop when a scapegoat appears!"

The echoes faded, and the surroundings returned to deathly silence.

Xiao Wang's boss was almost scared to death!

He was met with strange looks from all his colleagues.

And, a distant, detached distance!

"Hey, are you guys just going to abandon me?"

"I didn't do anything immoral or unethical!"

"So what if we don't have any holidays and work fourteen hours a day? Besides, I'll give you all the three gold soul coins you get as a monthly allowance!"

"As for performance-based pay, who can you blame if you can't catch evil spirit masters? If you can't catch them, you have to work overtime. To put it bluntly, you're all useless!"

"Bastard!" someone punched him.

"Yo yo yo, still going strong!" The boss made his move.

That person was only a Soul Saint, but his superior was a Soul Fighter, so he was directly suppressed.

"Stop!" Qian Renxue frowned.

Seeing that she had spoken, the boss had no choice but to release his subordinate.

Ye Hua looked around and found that most of them were not in good condition.

The white agarwood was the weakest, already panting heavily, perhaps suppressed by the darkness.

The Spirit Hall personnel were also in a bad situation; they were ambushed and injured, breaking out in a cold sweat.

“Ye Hua,” Bing Di frowned, “they can’t hold on.”

Ye Hua nodded. "Let's rest."

Ye Hua took out a tinderbox, blew on the flames, and lit a campfire with tree branches.

The flames flickered, the chill dissipated, enough to relax my tense nerves.

"Come over here, everyone." Ye Hua took out a water pouch and dry food from his jade bracelet.

"There's plenty of water and food; we can eat as much as we want for a year without having to be frugal."

Qian Renxue's expression immediately became interesting. "Why did you bring so many?"

“Better safe than sorry,” Ye Hua shrugged. “Anyway, there’s plenty of space.”

This is just the portable dry food and water; it also contains braised pork hock, steamed carp, and other dishes.

The jade bracelet is spacious and time stands still, making it a good choice for maintaining a high quality of life.

Hu Liena took the water pouch, unscrewed the lid, and handed it to Xie Yue.

Xie Yue's lips were chapped and cracked, and she had to drink several mouthfuls to feel better.

Seeing that Ye Hua was truly generous, the members of the Spirit Hall mustered their courage and stepped forward to thank him before wolfing down their food.

Firelight, food, and water

These three things are the calming force in dire straits.

Bai Chenxiang sat beside Xue Di, taking small bites of her bread, but her eyes remained wary.

She muttered to herself, "That old bastard Leng Yue is definitely watching us."

"Let him keep an eye on it," Hyotei said dismissively. "It won't hurt him to take a look."

“That’s true,” Bai Chenxiang pouted, “but I still feel uneasy.”

However, the scream interrupted her thoughts.

"Someone's there!!!"

Screams erupted!

The young Soul Saint gathered his soul power in his palm, facing the darkness to his right and behind him. "There! I just saw a shadow! Something is moving!"

Everyone was terrified!

It was clearly Xiao Wang who came to claim my life!

His boss was naturally isolated once again!

But when facing a formidable enemy, there is only endless emptiness.

There was no sound, no shadow, and no attack.

There was nothing there.

The deathly silence continued.

"Hahaha, scaring yourself?"

"Exactly, if you're really scared, shrink back and don't jump around!"

"Sigh, young people are normal to be timid!"

The veteran of the Spirit Hall laughed heartily.

The young Soul Saint's face flushed red. "I really saw it! It was right there!"

"Yes, yes, yes, I can see it, I can see it! Hahahaha!" the veterans replied with a perfunctory laugh.

The young Soul Saint's lips trembled, his soul power pulsed, flickering, and he was about to have an attack.

"That's enough." Qian Renxue's tone was icy. "Darkness and oppression exist; anyone can be misled!"

"Besides, who can guarantee he didn't make a mistake? Being cautious is never a bad thing!"

"Apologize to the young people!"

The veterans reluctantly bowed and apologized.

The scene fell silent again, with the campfire crackling softly.

Qian Renxue sat down beside Ye Hua and whispered, "That's not right."

"I have a general feeling that everyone is very aggressive."

"Even if the senior staff is arrogant, they wouldn't act like that. The young people are usually gentle and not short-tempered."

Ye Hua nodded. "Darkness amplifies their emotions."

"In fact, when faced with the unknown, we are all ordinary people."

"There are times when people go mad when faced with oppressive darkness."

"I hope we can find a way out soon," Qian Renxue sighed.

Ye Hua took out the treasure-hunting compass, and the pointer trembled, much more intensely than when he first arrived.

“There should be a way,” Ye Hua’s eyes narrowed slightly, “If we can’t solve the darkness, we’ll solve the problem of who created it!”

The two looked at each other, about to finalize their plan—

"Ahhhhh!!!"

A scream shattered the silence!

This time it's not the young Soul Saint.

The Contra sitting on the outermost edge of the campfire suddenly leaped up!

The dark force struck the spot where he had been sitting.

Xiao Wang's boss was trembling and shaking all over!

“See?” the young Soul Saint shrugged. “I didn’t lie, and I’m not a coward!”

The veterans' faces turned ashen, and they let out a cold snort.

But then, a black ray grazed past Lao Zige's ear!

puff!

The young Soul Saint's smile froze.

Touching his brow, he fell straight down.

Chapter 384 Evil Moon, Death

The young Soul Saint fell down very quietly, almost without making a sound.

Like a puppet whose strings have been pulled out, the knees land first, followed by the upper body.

A crack appeared between his eyebrows, from which blood oozed, sliding down the bridge of his nose into his eye socket and congealing at the corner of his eye.
