Duan Chen withdrew his finger and pretended to blow on it.
"My target has always been you. Sun Xiaoxiao was just a cover."
"Cunning!"
Ding Ding's face was pale, and she forced a smile, covering the profusely bleeding wound.
"The calculation was off. Next time, it might be your head."
Sun Xiaoxiao and the other two were different from Jia Rengui and Fu Ze. Jia Rengui's situation was that he had voluntarily let the sea monster possess his body. His body no longer belonged to him. This was the cleverness of Apostle No. 05, which not only satisfied Jia Rengui's vanity but also allowed him to not feel pain, making him fight for them. Fu Ze was the same.
Sun Xiaoxiao and the other two were completely different. They had voluntarily allowed the apostle to transform their bodies into sea monsters, meaning their bodies still belonged to them. They could feel everything, from pain to pleasure.
Simply put, both were heretics, but the way they became heretics was different.
Tian Qi mocked mercilessly, "How about it? Say what you told me earlier again?"
"Scram!"
Ding Ding was enraged, and a water projectile shot from her right palm, aiming at Jun Ci, who was in the worst state.
"Bang!"
"You again!"
You Jiawei's ability was too convenient here. It made the most troublesome opponent on the field not Duan Chen, but this woman who could attack from any distance.
You Jiawei snorted coldly. Her ability was most effective in such a confined space.
Duan Chen also noticed this. However, although this ability was practical, it consumed a significant amount of spiritual energy. He estimated that You Jiawei had less than half of her spiritual energy left, yet she had only thrown two or three punches since the fight began.
Her ultimate move, Ten Thousand Punches Combined, probably had little chance of being unleashed.
Duan Chen's thoughts raced like lightning, and he quickly chose the optimal plan.
"Sequence 030: Void Domain!"
The tide spread. This time, the seawater was not as soft as before but was bone-chillingly cold.
Duan Chen's icy voice echoed.
"Attack, capture alive!"
"Alright!"
You Jiawei was about to step forward when Duan Chen grabbed her shoulder, signaling her to conserve her spiritual energy.
"You alone? Can you do it?"
Duan Chen smiled kindly, but for some reason, You Jiawei felt a hint of... wickedness?
"I'm sorry, Sister Weiwei, I'll borrow your ability for a moment."
"Borrow mine?" You Jiawei's eyes widened, thinking she misheard him.
Duan Chen nodded seriously.
"Sequence 021: [Empty Strike] · Ten Thousand Punches Combined!"
Dense spiritual energy fists floated in the air. You Jiawei's eyes widened. She hadn't even recovered from the shock of Duan Chen using her ability.
No matter how she thought about it, this was impossible!
"Defend!"
"How can we defend against this?"
"Sun Xiaoxiao, where is your little monster?"
"You're the monster, you idiot!"
Internal conflict?
Before You Jiawei could rejoice, she saw the dark green monster behind Sun Xiaoxiao poke its head out and voluntarily stand in front of the three of them.
"Come back!"
Sun Xiaoxiao roared, and the monster actually let out a whimpering sound of grievance.
"We don't need her. Do you want us all to die here?"
Tian Qi looked at the dense fist shadows in the air, a sense of dread washing over her.
She could feel the terrifying spiritual energy contained within them.
Sun Xiaoxiao and Kong Ning stood shoulder to shoulder, coldly saying, "Two losers!"
Duan Chen didn't have time to watch them argue. With Wang Qi as his support, Ten Thousand Punches Combined would only consume at most a third of his spiritual energy. Even if this move failed, he could still draw spiritual energy for other moves. Moreover, after this move, Jun Ci and You Jiawei's spiritual energy trajectories would recover somewhat...
"Combine!"
Sun Xiaoxiao and the other two's faces instantly turned pale.
The numerous fist shadows had already instilled fear in them. When these fist shadows combined into one, what would be their power?!
"Stop hiding! Come out!"
Tian Qi and Ding Ding no longer dared to hide behind Sun Xiaoxiao. They feared that if this continued, they would suffer the same fate as Brother Ao.
That guy had died without even leaving a trace...
Duan Chen smirked wickedly.
You Jiawei's face was filled with shock. The Ten Thousand Punches Combined she had unleashed and the one Duan Chen had used were on completely different levels!
Who exactly was this guy?!
Duan Chen was very satisfied with the power of this move. It didn't consume too much spiritual energy like a railgun, but it could unleash comparable power. He planned to set this move as a "shortcut key."
"Go!"
Duan Chen threw a punch!
"Block quickly!"
The Void Domain was narrow, and Sun Xiaoxiao and the others abandoned any thoughts of dodging, having no choice but to forcefully withstand the attack.
For a moment, water projectiles, fish scales, and Sun Xiaoxiao even produced an ancient-looking trident.
"Boom—!!!"
In an instant, the seawater churned!
The water projectiles dissipated, the fish scales shattered, and the trident lost its original lustrous sheen, crumbling inch by inch!
"Jun Ci!"
"Yes!"
Jun Ci immediately stepped forward. Light and dark energies intertwined, quickly weaving four ropes, two pure black and two pure white, and in the ensuing chaos, they were wrapped around the four heretics.
"Scram!"
Sun Xiaoxiao instantly became furious. She tried to resist but found that her energy was completely depleted, and she couldn't muster any strength.
Tian Qi and Ding Ding, who were slightly weaker than her, had already fainted and were obediently bound by the ropes.
"Bastard! Duan Chen! Let go of me!"
Sun Xiaoxiao's true form was revealed. Despite all her efforts, she couldn't break free from the Light-Dark Rope.
"Don't move!"
Jun Ci roared. The ropes tightened instantly. Sun Xiaoxiao was fine, but the voluptuous Tian Qi and Ding Ding were not so lucky. Even in their unconscious state, their faces showed signs of pain.
"Retract!"
Duan Chen breathed a sigh of relief, and the Void Domain disappeared.
"Oh, all done?"
Xier sat on the sofa watching television, a bag of chips in her hand. Beside her, Geng Bing was weeping. Fu Sheng's face was cold. Seeing them, his eyes softened.
You Jiawei immediately called the Spirit Hunter Guild and sent the list of Jia Rengui's lovers, which she had investigated, to the front desk, Fang Xin and Fang Yi, asking them to apprehend them as soon as possible.
"The action was a bit slow. I hope they don't escape."
Duan Chen sneered, "They won't. The sea monsters came here with missions. For example, these three cannot easily leave Ice City. Jia Rengui's lovers are no exception. I was too busy to deal with them before, and they probably thought they were still safe."
"Then what about these three? Should we put them in the Spirit Hunter Prison first?"
"That can be done." Duan Chen had no objections.
You Jiawei made another call, but after hanging up, her expression was not good.
"What's wrong?"
"Ice City Spirit Hunter Prison... has no vacancies."
Duan Chen was also taken aback upon hearing this.
"Then forget it. Bring them to Jia Rengui's manor for now, and I'll arrange for someone to watch them."
"For now, that's the only way. Thank you for your hard work."
You Jiawei said solemnly. At this moment, in her heart, she had completely believed Duan Chen's words.
"You're welcome. We're all part of the Spirit Hunter Guild, so it's our duty."
