865 The Bronze Coffin Under the Sea of Fire! (4)
A long time later, Xu Qing silently retreated, preparing to leave this place.
He didn’t want to have any conflict with the Red Moon Shrine now.
However, the instant Xu Qing retreated, the woman who was throwing the food suddenly laughed.
“You’ve been watching for a long time. Are you leaving just like that?”
Xu Qing’s eyes narrowed and he immediately sped up. At the same time, the woman in red lifted her right hand and pointed in Xu Qing’s direction. She used her divine servant’s authority to control the power of the restrictions here and calmly spoke.
“Come!”
As soon as she finished speaking, the restrictions formed by the power of the Red Moon floating in the surroundings immediately distorted and transformed into a huge red hand that grabbed at Xu Qing.
Xu Qing knew that he couldn’t resist this large hand formed by the restrictions unless he used the Purple Moon’s authority. However, if he did that, everything would be exposed.
In an instant, Xu Qing made a decision. A cold glint flashed in his eyes as he calmly spoke.
“Such guts.”
As soon as he finished speaking, the large blood-red hand that was approaching suddenly trembled. It instantly turned around and headed straight for the red-clothed woman.
This scene clearly stunned the woman in red. She quickly performed a series of hand seals but she couldn’t avoid the hand. Her body was thrown away by the huge force. It was only when she took out a blood-red token that she barely neutralized the hand.
Her expression changed rapidly as she cried out.
“Divine envoy?”
After speaking, she immediately formed a strange seal with both hands, bowed, and looked at Xu Qing with great respect.
Xu Qing furrowed his brows. He naturally recognized this as a form of internal etiquette among higher-ups, but he didn’t know how to respond. So, he pretended to remain calm and nodded.
However, the woman’s pupils narrowed and she made other hand gestures. She stared at Xu Qing and her expression changed.
“You’re not a divine envoy!”
“Who are you? Why do you have the power of the high god?!”
The woman was bewildered and waves of emotions surged in her heart.
This was the first time she had encountered such a thing. Not to mention her, even the Red Moon Shrine had never experienced such a thing.
She could not believe her eyes.
Xu Qing had a blank expression, but deep down, he was contemplating. He felt that his lack of understanding of the etiquette and gestures was probably not the only reason the other party sensed something was amiss. There must be some other aspect where he had revealed a flaw.
After all, when one’s cultivation had reached such a level, they were not fools and could easily discern clues.
He had originally planned to leave, but since she had chosen to attack, even if her cultivation made him wary, he could only think of a way to kill her now.
Xu Qing’s heart was filled with killing intent as he calmly spoke.
“You’ve overstepped your bounds.”
As he spoke, he lifted his right hand and pointed. Immediately, the surrounding Red Moon restrictions rumbled like never before. Xu Qing instantly took over the authority and formed a suppressive force that headed straight for the woman.
The woman’s beautiful face completely changed. The horror in her heart couldn’t help but appear on her face, causing her expression to twist.
‘He’s not from the temple. I’m very sure of this, but he has divine power!’
‘The authority he controls is even more powerful!’
‘How is this possible!!’
The woman’s body trembled as she attacked with all her might. A secret repository appeared behind her. Although it didn’t form the Heavenly Dao, her combat strength was astonishing. Coupled with the blood-red token, she could barely hold on.
‘The degree of his control over the restrictions far surpasses other divine envoys!”
The woman was extremely surprised. In her early years, she had followed her ancestor and seen the divine envoy activating the restrictions. Now that she compared them, the difference was obvious.
“Impossible!”
The woman’s heart shook violently. In an instant, another thought rose in her mind.
‘This matter is too big. If I report it to the temple, it will definitely be a great contribution!’
At the thought of this, the woman spared no expense and her secret repository also ignited. The blood-red token in front of her emitted extreme authority. She sped up, not to chase after Xu Qing but to leave this place.
Above the magma surface which was 10,000 feet away, was the shrine. As long as she flew out of the magma, she could immediately inform the shrine.
However, how could Xu Qing let her have her way? With a wave of his hand, the blood-red restrictions in all directions fluctuated again. In one breath, they formed seven to eight blood-red hands that slapped fiercely at the woman.
Xu Qing was very clear that once he left this place where the Red Moon’s restrictions were, he would definitely not be a match for this Dao Nurturing Spirit Repository. At the same time, if she successfully escaped, what awaited him would be endless danger.
“I have to kill her!”
