Chapter 2374: Sister-in-law, what did you say?
Chapter 2374: Chapter 2374: Sister-in-law, what did you say?
Bai Ze himself was bewildered, looking down at his body and then at Bai Chong in front of him, enveloped in darkness.
He thought he would at least be severely injured, if not dead; how could it be that nothing happened at all? Bai Chong’s attack could even injure his elder brother and sister-in-law.
The next moment, his gaze fell upon the Blue Sun Divine Sword in his hand.
Could it be because of this divine sword? As long as he wielded this sword, he wouldn’t be harmed?
"He actually possesses the Demon Heart."
The voice of the Stone People echoed. He remembered who this man was.
The boy who was cast out of Demon Heart Island, the child born without carrying a Demon Heart — Bai Liuyue’s brother.
"Bai Liuyue, you’ve found him after all, and even bestowed him with a Demon Heart. You, very good!" he spoke eerily.
"I have always been good."
An Jiuyue smirked subtly; being good wasn’t anything out of the ordinary.
However, she slyly glanced at the already agitated Bai Chong, wondering if her next words would infuriate Bai Chong to death.
"All thanks to former High Priest Bai Chong here. Had she not willingly offered up her Demon Heart, I wouldn’t have been able to save Bai Ze, my own brother."
"What did you say?!"
Sure enough, upon hearing An Jiuyue’s words, Bai Chong’s demonic energy spilled forth, and she became utterly upset.
Her own brother, born in Demon Destruction Valley, nurtured by Stone People just like her, how could he have a brother?
Moreover, everyone knows that the High Priest of Demon Heart at Wulong Mountain was always a woman. How could Bai Ze be An Jiuyue’s own brother?
"Sister-in-law, what did you say?"
Bai Ze was also dumbfounded. His own brother, was it referring to him?
Wasn’t he found and brought home by his elder brother? How had he suddenly become sister-in-law’s brother and even a blood-relative one at that?
"We’ll discuss this matter later; first deal with her."
An Jiuyue had no intention of spending time explaining this; dealing with Bai Chong was the priority, as long as Bai Chong was killed, nothing else mattered.
"You all deserve to die!"
After receiving this news, Bai Chong exploded completely.
Her Demon Heart, painstakingly relinquished through her efforts, had been utilized by An Jiuyue, bestowed upon Bai Ze, and even used to confront her!
"I will kill you all; none of you should think of leaving here alive."
Knowing full well that she couldn’t wrap An Jiuyue and Qian Jiyun inside her Circle of Evil Thoughts, she withdrew her power, intending to kill Bai Ze first.
Seeing her approach, Bai Ze took a step back.
But he still couldn’t escape, enveloped entirely within Bai Chong’s Circle of Evil Thoughts.
"Bai Ze!"
"Watch out!"
Leng Yikun and Long Xuan both shouted out simultaneously.
While An Jiuyue and Qian Jiyun were much calmer, seeing Bai Ze wrapped in the Circle of Evil Thoughts, they didn’t react at all.
The expected screams did not occur, Bai Ze simply stood there bemusedly within the circle, unaffected by Bai Chong’s attacks in the least.
"What’s going on? How could this be?"
Bai Chong herself was bewildered; Bai Ze was pulled into the Circle of Evil Thoughts and should have been invaded by the evil immediately, leading quickly to his demise.
Yet now, he stood there as if nothing happened, foolishly lingering.
