Lu Feiyang looked at the approaching Ye Shuangluo, a relieved smile appearing on his face:
“Shuangluo, congratulations on becoming one of the ‘Ten Days’. As a gift, I want to give you my ability—”
Squelch!
Lu Feiyang lowered his head to look at his chest, where a hand had pierced through, gripping his heart. The most familiar line to him was uttered by the person behind him.
“Devour.”
Bang!
His heart was crushed directly.
The entire hall fell into a deathly silence.
Swish!
The moment Ye Buxie made his move, Ye Shuangluo drew his sword and slashed at him.
But just as the blade was about to touch Ye Buxie’s body, his form suddenly dissolved into countless elemental particles, scattering away.
These particles seemed to have a consciousness of their own, scattering before regrouping beside Xiao Chenyu, reforming into Ye Buxie.
As soon as his body reformed, he immediately summoned a fiery red long sword and placed it against Xiao Chenyu’s neck.
“Elemental body, elemental reformation! How can you use it?”
Xiao Chenyu turned his head in disbelief to look at Ye Buxie. The two techniques he had just used were developed by an out-of-control, mutated ability user.
The opponent’s talent was too great; in just a year, he had developed his otherwise ordinary elemental ability to its peak.
Unfortunately, his talent was too great, causing the flow of water to be too fast for the cup to hold, spilling over completely.
In his loss of control, he wreaked havoc in the city, and it was Lu Feiyang who used “Omniform” to devour him in the end.
But Lu Feiyang had only devoured the opponent’s ability; it was difficult for him to replicate and use the various techniques developed by the opponent.
To Xiao Chenyu’s question, Ye Buxie replied disdainfully:
“Heh, do you think I’m as useless as Lu Feiyang?
Having such a powerful ability but unable to control it, it’s truly a waste for someone like him to possess ‘Omniform’.”
“It truly is a waste.”
A familiar voice suddenly echoed in the hall, and the next moment, countless white doves flew in.
As they entered, the doves transformed one by one into human forms; they were official members of “Eternal Night.”
Then, a young man dressed in a white suit and tie swaggered in through the hall’s main entrance.
Seeing the young man, Ye Buxie said with some dissatisfaction:
“Mo Luo, you’re too slow.”
Mo Luo!?
The leaders of “Dawn” frantically retreated, clearly aware that Mo Luo was an extremely dangerous individual.
“Ye Buxie! You actually betrayed us! You traitor!”
Huo Ling’s face was flushed with anger, and if it weren’t for Ye Buxie holding Xiao Chenyu hostage, he would have already buffed himself and charged at him.
“Betrayal… hahaha!”
Ye Buxie laughed as if he had heard something amusing, laughing until tears came out.
“Senior, oh senior, how can you be so naive? Mo Luo, tell him who I am.”
Mo Luo elegantly bowed and spoke words that left everyone in disbelief:
“Of course, Lord Evil King, I have yet to congratulate you on achieving your desires.”
Evil King!?
Everyone present was stunned; Ye Buxie was actually the Evil King of “Eternal Night.”
“Eternal Night” had a strict hierarchy, with the lowest level being the expendable outer members.
If you had abilities but were not outstanding, you could become an official member.
If you had exceptional abilities and sufficient achievements, you could become a core member.
Above the core members were the four kings who served the monarch.
And above the four kings was the supreme monarch of “Eternal Night.”
“You came from the start… to seize Old Lu’s ability.”
A bitter smile appeared on Huo Ling’s face. He had always been open-hearted with the other, sharing everything.
This included the abilities of Lu Feiyang, Bai Ge, Lingyun, and even Ye Shuangluo.
But it turned out the other was an undercover agent, approaching them with a purpose from the beginning.
In response to Comrade Huo’s question, Ye Buxie nodded straightforwardly.
“Of course, I came from the start to seize ‘Omniform’. Such a powerful ability is wasted on someone as useless as Lu Feiyang.
Fortunately, my ability is ‘Formless’, which can simulate others’ abilities, and it can also ‘Mold’, permanently seizing and devouring an ability.”
Perhaps because things were going too smoothly, Ye Buxie revealed all his plans without reservation.
As he spoke, he suddenly realized something was amiss.
Where was Ye Shuangluo? Why was he so quiet?
The moment this thought crossed his mind, a sense of danger came from behind, and he immediately grabbed Xiao Chenyu’s shoulder to activate spatial teleportation.
Swish!
A slash imbued with wind and fire elements, as fast as lightning, missed its target again.
Having narrowly escaped a fatal strike, Ye Buxie took a deep breath, still shaken, and gritted his teeth at the attacker:
“You really leave me speechless. I’m holding Xiao Chenyu here, and you have no qualms?”
Ye Shuangluo didn’t answer with words, but his actions made his stance and attitude clear.
Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh!
In the blink of an eye, he created thousands of wind blades aimed at Ye Buxie, and with a thought, he released them all.
“Madman!”
Ye Buxie abandoned Xiao Chenyu, activating his elemental body and reformation to escape.
This left the wind blades targeting only Xiao Chenyu.
Her slender figure seemed so small and fragile in the face of thousands of wind blades.
Just when everyone thought Xiao Chenyu was doomed, a cold male voice suddenly rang out:
“Protect her, Basalt.”
Whoosh!
A green arrow shot to the ground at Xiao Chenyu’s feet just before the wind blades could tear her apart.
In an instant, the arrow transformed into a nearly hundred-meter-tall Basalt divine beast, blocking all the wind blades.
Xiao Chenyu’s previously lifeless expression due to Lu Feiyang’s death changed dramatically, tears welling up in her eyes.
Everyone turned their gaze to the spot where the arrow had been shot from, where a young man holding a golden bow stood calmly.
The young man’s appearance was ordinary, yet he exuded a compassionate aura.
The moment he appeared, he naturally became the center of everyone’s attention.
Upon seeing the young man, Ye Shuangluo immediately recognized him, or rather, everyone present knew him.
“Team Leader!”
The first to shout was Comrade Huo, his face filled with excitement and joy.
Yes, the one who had just saved Xiao Chenyu was none other than the leader of Dawn Group 1, Ye Shuangluo’s mentor, and the strongest man in this world: Zhou Boyu.
Seeing Zhou Boyu appear, the victorious smiles on Ye Buxie and Mo Luo’s faces vanished.
Everyone thought they were afraid, afraid that Zhou Boyu would kill them.
But what happened next left everyone dumbfounded: Ye Buxie and Mo Luo suddenly knelt down, followed by countless “Eternal Night” members.
“Welcome, Your Majesty.”
