Bang bang bang!
As soon as the words fell, three Black Mist Serpents suddenly exploded, turning into a Soul-devouring Fog that quickly dissipated.
"Are you You Xuan?"
Qi Shaxing glanced at the place where the black mist dissipated, looking at You Xuan with suspicion.
"I am You Xuan!" You Xuan's eyes flashed, and he nodded lightly.
The expressions of Qi Shaxing and Da Lipu immediately turned unpleasant. They recalled the words spoken by the Black Mist Serpent earlier, their eyes growing ominous.
"You Xuan, Jiang..."
Dragon Saint noticed something was amiss with the emotions at play and quickly tried to change the subject.
"Dragon Saint!"
You Xuan suddenly shouted, interrupting Dragon Saint: "I know the death of Lord Xue has nothing to do with you, but you must admit, he died for your Flame Dragon Group!"
Dragon Saint froze for a moment, a flash of insight crossed his mind, and his expression turned somber: "Yes, I admit it, Mr Jiang's death... I didn't want it either!"
The Pope, Da Lipu, and Qi Shaxing looked at Dragon Saint, then at You Xuan, with a hint of doubt in their eyes.
Buzz!
Suddenly, a faint wave of the Divine Soul spread, and everyone's faces changed.
"Eight-Headed!" You Xuan shouted loudly.
Buzz buzz buzz!
Five powerful auras burst forth, sealing a range of a thousand meters, meticulously searching every spot.
"Hmm?"
Dragon Saint uttered a faint sound of surprise, looking down at the island's edge. Most of the clouds and mist on the island had already dissipated quickly, except for a mist on the edge where Wu Qianxun and others were, which was dissipating very slowly, and he couldn't sense the situation within the mist.
The Pope and others noticed Dragon Saint's anomaly and all looked at the mist.
Whoosh!
Under the gaze of the Pope and others, the mist suddenly vanished without a trace, revealing the figure of Jiang Chen.
Swoosh!
"No need to probe, His Holiness the Pope, Eight-Headed has left."
Jiang Chen leaped to the side of Dragon Saint and the others, speaking softly.
When Eight-Headed arrived, the Spiritual Energy inside Jiang Chen's body became restless, but now, it had calmed down.
"So you all knew Eight-Headed hadn't left, which is why you brought up Mr Jiang's death again!" The Pope realized.
Swish swish swish!
"Your Holiness the Pope!"
"Dragon Saint!"
"Mr. Da Lipu!"
"Mr. Qi Shaxing!"
People on the island jumped to gather around them, offering respectful greetings.
"Everyone."
Jiang Chen turned to face the crowd and said softly, "I obtained some life energy on the island, but this energy cannot be transferred, it can only be extracted and absorbed by others, and it dissipates very quickly. What I'm thinking is, let's have the four of you seniors absorb it, after all... hehe!"
Grinning, Jiang Chen spoke mockingly to the four elders: "After all, the four of you really have your necks in the dirt already!"
The crowd was taken aback for a moment, then chuckled.
Whether Jiang Chen truly had any life energy left, none of them intended to pursue it further, whatever Jiang Chen wanted to do with it, they had no objections.
The Pope and others were slightly taken aback, looking at Jiang Chen in surprise.
Da Lipu and Qi Shaxing were somewhat embarrassed. They had indeed felt a sense of loss during Eight-Headed's provocation.
But now, Jiang Chen had said it so openly, and he hadn't even given the energy to his own people, only to these four old guys, which made them feel awkward.
"Mr. Jiang, you should keep it for yourself. Life energy doesn't just extend life, it also has a very good healing effect. Your safety is the most important!" Dragon Saint spoke softly.
"Yes! Mr. Jiang, you should keep it!" The Pope also chimed in.
Da Lipu and Qi Shaxing exchanged a glance and opened their mouths, wanting to echo the sentiment.
"Seniors, listen to me!"
Jiang Chen waved his hand, stopping Qi Shaxing and Da Lipu from speaking, his expression serious: "I have already absorbed some life energy, and my body's life energy is fully saturated, unable to absorb more. This has given me a sense of life force. I can feel it, Dragon Saint, His Holiness the Pope, you both are nearing your end, right?"
"What!?"
"Nearing the end!?"
"That's impossible?!"
"How old is His Holiness the Pope?!"
Everyone around was shocked, staring at Dragon Saint and the Pope in disbelief.
Qi Shaxing and Da Lipu looked surprised as well.
Dragon Saint and the Pope exchanged a look, smiling bitterly without saying anything.
Their tacit acknowledgment shocked everyone again.
Whoosh!
Mi Jiaro rushed to the Pope's side, speaking urgently, "His Holiness, what's going on? You're a Saint Realm Peak expert, how could you be at your end only at around 200 years old? Why?"
"Mi Jiaro, don't worry, Mr. Jiang has life energy, doesn't he?" The Pope smiled, patting Mi Jiaro's shoulder.
Jiang Chen glanced at Mi Jiaro and turned to the Pope: "Your Holiness, you can't keep treating Mi Jiaro like a child, he should grow up! There are things he needs to take on himself!"
The Pope was slightly taken aback, a complex expression in his eyes.
"Mr. Jiang, Brother Jiang, what do you mean by this?" Mi Jiaro looked at Jiang Chen, confused.
Jiang Chen gave Mi Jiaro a deep look and said softly, "Everyone, follow me!"
Swoosh!
Calling out, Jiang Chen jumped towards the center of the island.
The crowd flew up in curiosity, following him.
Landing at the center of the island where Hu Hada had been earlier, Jiang Chen pointed to the ground, turning to the following crowd: "Just now, here, Hu Hada took over Fa'erxi's body!"
"What?"
"Hu Hada took over Fa'erxi's body?!"
"How could he have the ability to take over Fa'erxi?!"
Several who knew Hu Hada exclaimed in shock.
Jiang Chen looked casually at Da Lipu and Qi Shaxing before turning to the crowd and narrating softly: "When I arrived here, Fa'erxi..."
After giving a brief account of what happened, Jiang Chen pointed to the ground and waved his hand gently.
Whoosh!
A gale swept over, revealing a shriveled corpse on the ground!
"This is... this is Hu Hada?!"
"This body... it looks as if it suddenly lost all vitality?!"
The crowd exclaimed, furrowing their brows.
Qi Shaxing and Da Lipu's faces changed, glancing at Jiang Chen with a thoughtful look.
Jiang Chen turned to Qi Shaxing and Da Lipu, matching their gaze.
Qi Shaxing and Da Lipu's expressions shifted, slightly averting their eyes.
"This is Hu Hada's corpse, and indeed it suddenly lost all vitality!"
Jiang Chen turned to the crowd, speaking softly: "Hu Hada, I am now certain he is a Divine Soul from the Ancient Martial Era, arriving to take over a body and be reborn."
