"I understand" Yu Er Dan nodded and controlled the desire to beat Jian Hu. She knew it was not wise.
"Leave, while you still can. Please leave, I can barely restrict him anymore" Lu Zheng said again.
"Impossible! If we leave you now and Jian Hu escapes your soul seal, what will become of you?" Cangxiang Ziwu was the first to object.
Although she did not know Lu Zheng, she still felt grateful for him lending them a hand. If she hadn't brought him into Jian Hu's matter, he would have probably reached his destination. If Lu Zheng died because of her, her conscience would never allow her to be at peace.
Yu Er Dan did not speak but she agreed with Cangxiang Ziwu. Lu Zheng was a by passer, he did not have to die in the conflicts of Eight Extremities Palace.
Lu Zheng saw this and sighed inwardly. These women had no care for their own lives.
He turned to Cangxiang Zihan and spoke: "Friend, please carry your women away before it is too late"
Cangxiang Zihan had a grim expression but he nodded affirmatively. The lives of his sister and Yu Er Dan were ten times worth more than that of a stranger.
Dense cloud Qi spiralled from his body which shrouded everyone. Cangxiang Ziwu and Yu Er Dan knew it was Cangxiang Zihan's methods and did not resist but what he did next stunned them.
"Brother!" Cangxiang Ziwu cried out all of a sudden. Her twin brother bound her in place alongside Yu Er Dan before carrying them away with shocking speed.
Cloud path martial practitioners were very fast and in the space of one second, Cangxiang Zihan had carried them away across thousands of metres.
Jian Hu could only watch in anger. He could not even wag his tail not to mention giving chase. His expression was icy cold as he gazed at Lu Zheng.
Lu Zheng drew in a cold breath and soul path aura surged from his body. His Soul Lake fell as the phantom of a man formed from his body.
The man was exceedingly huge and wore yellow robes. Skulls of different beasts hung from his robes and many dead souls cried out in agony from inside the skulls. The man wielded a large bone scythe.
Jian Hu's pupils shrunk. He did not know who the phantom man was but memories of him were imprinted in his mind all of a sudden. It was like he had grown up alongside the phantom man, fighting him every single moment, in every single day, in every single week for all of his life. And that he had been killed millions of times by the phantom man.
Merely by looking at the phantom man, Jian Hu grew traumas that he had never experienced.
"Spectral… Demon!" Jian Hu could barely speak. His heart beat frantically as he gazed at the phantom man. He wanted to escape from this place at any cost.
Lu Zheng smiled faintly as he gazed at the Spectral Demon. He did not expect his increased soul foundation to have such an effect.
When he used the technique against Louis, he had managed to reap the latter's soul but Louis had not behaved like this. He was only scared for his life.
The Spectral Demon was expressionless like a demon from the deepest abyss of hell. He swung his bone scythe and stuck it in Jian Hu's skull.
"Hnngg!" Jian Hu's soul was oppressed but he did not relent even as the aura of death thickened around him. Lu Zheng felt a strong resisting force overwhelm him.
~The will for survival of a peak expert!~
Jian Hu's Soul Lake froze over in many patches and his true soul suffered many injuries but he did not relent. The dark chains that bound him were shattered and the bone scythe directly broke in his skull before fading away.
"Huff, huff!" Jian Hu panted with a pale expression. Never in his life had he ever faced such a strong oppressive force.
Lu Zheng smiled bitterly. His Soul Lake was mostly depleted already. He did not have the mental strength to even gather any form of battle intent.
His body shimmered as the seal on space was broken. In the very next moment, Lu Zheng disappeared from before Jian Hu.
Jian Hu roared angrily. Lu Zheng had to pay for what he had just put him through. In pure anger, his wings flapped before dashing in the direction Cangxiang Zihan had gone.
