Chapter 4506: 5.0258 Beating a Dog Behind Closed Doors (Monthly Ticket Bonus Chapter)

Qiao Mu and Mo Lian's group exited the teleportation array one after another and circled the spot twice.

"Oh, these people are quite good at hiding," Princess Wushuang glanced around. "Could they have escaped?"

"They're still here." Qiao Mu wiggled her fingers, grasping a wisp of the Hundred Beasts Talisman's phantom, and coldly sneered, "They must have hidden themselves in some stealth array."

"It's right here." She turned to look at Mo Lian.

He understood and nodded, sweeping his hand. A faint light and shadow traced an arc, like a drifting silk ribbon, gently embedding itself into the void before them.

Young Master Rong raised an eyebrow, thinking: This Crown Prince Mo is too formidable; with a casual sweep, he found the stealth array.

Immediately, a dark shadow leaped past. Everyone felt several objects swiftly fly past their eyes, as fast as streaks of light, abruptly drilling into the stealth array.

Moments later, the stealth array suddenly revealed itself before them.

Mu Xiaoxue and the others were all seated within the array.

With the aura concealment removed, to An Wushuang and the others, Mu Xiaoxue and her group looked like they were sitting inside a transparent bowl.

They were facing a gloomy old man, about seventy years old with white hair and eyebrows, through the defensive barrier.

Ding Yun and the others now saw clearly.

What the Peach Blossom Immortal Venerable had swiftly thrown in just now were several seeds. Now, they were rapidly growing and climbing among the people, blossoming and bearing fruit, their branches and leaves vigorously scaling and attaching themselves to the four sides of the defensive barrier.

As the wood spirits climbed, the defensive barrier showed numerous fine scratches and faint cracks.

But as the seeds within the array continued to grow, they seemed to be trying to push open the four-sided barrier.

This commotion woke up all the Shadow City disciples who had been unable to settle down for meditation and recovery.

They jumped up in alarm, hastily summoning their swords, sabers, axes, and halberds from their spiritual oceans, and instinctively slashed at the plant vines and flower stems that were crawling around them like snakes.

However, these growing plants were nurtured by wood spirits.

As long as the Peach Blossom Immortal Venerable's divine power was inexhaustible, no matter how much they cut or killed, they could not eliminate these things.

Their cultivation and spiritual power were vastly inferior to that of a certain Peach Blossom; once they confronted her, it would be an undeniable bloodbath...

Now, these people were all confined within this hidden defensive array. The aura concealment had been removed, and the defense seemed to be less than satisfactory.

As the array's aura gradually weakened, Elder Zhuang couldn't help but frown and look at the array master, "Master Mou!"

"What's the panic?" Mouyang sneered, suddenly raising his hand, grabbing a random Shadow City disciple, and forcefully slapping him on the head.

Everyone was dumbfounded.

Not only were Qiao Mu and her group outside the array speechless, but the Shadow City disciples inside the array were even more terrified.

Had Master Mouyang gone mad? Could he not distinguish between friend and foe?

Could he be a traitor, planted among them by the Crown Prince and Crown Princess of Shenzhou?

"What are you doing?" Elder Zhuang roared. He certainly didn't believe Mouyang would betray the organization.

Because that was utterly impossible; no one knew how terrible the consequences of betraying the Ancestor would be!

"Don't be nervous." Mouyang's eyes gleamed with a crazed smile, his gloomy face filled with an unnatural expression. "Can't you see I'm testing and strengthening the array?"

Qiao Mu glanced at the old man, who looked like a madman, and silently pulled out the Realm of Misfortune from her pocket.
