Ye Xunhuan's face hardened slightly upon hearing Di Xi's words: "Do you think he can rush past me?"
As he spoke, Ye Xunhuan caught sight of Hal from the corner of his eye.
Although Hal and Di Xi had worked well together just now, with one using tarot cards while the other simultaneously attacked him.
But now, Di Xi was held under Ye Xunhuan's blade, and any slight movement would lead to Di Xi's death. Hal stood nearby, allowing Ye Xunhuan enough time to deal with him after killing Di Xi effortlessly.
Seeing that Ye Xunhuan hadn't killed him with a single stroke, Di Xi quickly said: "Commander, we know you're formidable, and it's unwise to provoke you. We also understand that if we fall into your hands, we'll be doomed. Do you think we wouldn't have prepared for this situation?"
"Or rather, if you were in our place, would you do nothing?"
Ye Xunhuan's heart skipped a beat upon hearing Di Xi's words, his mind flashing back to Di Xi asking for his help at the black list tournament and wanting to control Qiu Ruoxi.
Could they have already poisoned Qiu Ruoxi?
With this thought, Ye Xunhuan's face immediately turned extremely grim: "What have you done to my wife?"
"Commander, you're indeed smart!" Di Xi exhaled deeply: "You should know about voodoo, right?"
Upon hearing these words, Ye Xunhuan's expression drastically changed, and the blade at Di Xi's neck moved swiftly.
Ye Xunhuan's slight movement cut through Di Xi's skin, causing a trickle of fresh blood to ooze out!
The slight pain immediately changed Di Xi's expression: "Commander, if you kill me, no one can cure your wife's voodoo. You can let your wife check if there's a blue line on her wrist. When the line grows to ten centimeters, it will be your wife's death day!"
Not far away, Qiu Ruoxi raised her right hand upon hearing Di Xi's words and saw a blue line about one centimeter long that had appeared on her wrist!
"Di Xi, you're courting death!"
At this moment, Ye Xunhuan was filled with murderous intent, resembling a demon crawling out of hell with no sign of life, only the thick aura of death.
Ye Xunhuan was acquainted with voodoo, an origin from Africa, and is currently the best-known African belief.
It has spread to regions outside Africa and the Western world!
In Haiti, surrounded by countless divine powers is the Five-Poison Cult, one of Haiti's two official beliefs, the other being Catholicism.
People who often watch horror and other thriller films would know that many films showcase people using voodoo dolls to harm others, or using hair or other objects for harm!
In voodoo cults, voodoo dolls are considered the deadliest of secret techniques!
Especially in Thailand, where voodoo dolls are frequently seen!
Ye Xunhuan hadn't dealt with voodoo cultists but knew that the cult is terrifying and competes with Catholicism in one territory, also labeled as an evil cult indicating its power.
Ye Xunhuan didn't know exactly what kind of poison voodoo was, but he knew this thing was dangerous and best avoided.
He never imagined in his wildest dreams that Di Xi would use voodoo on Qiu Ruoxi, more precisely, to use voodoo against Qiu Ruoxi to constrain him.
"Commander, let me go, and I'll give you the antidote!" Di Xi said gravely to Ye Xunhuan: "Otherwise, if you kill us, your wife will accompany us in burial!"
"To you, we may be ants, but would you consider your wife to be ants also?"
Ye Xunhuan stared grimly at Di Xi: "Di Xi, if you're wise, hand over the antidote immediately..."
"Commander, I can give you the antidote, but you must let me go!" Di Xi said heavily.
Ye Xunhuan took a deep breath: "I'll let you go, but first you must detoxify my wife!"
Di Xi smirked coldly: "Commander, do you think that's possible?"
"Di Xi, don't push me!" Ye Xunhuan said coldly: "Although I haven't dealt with voodoo, it doesn't mean I can't find someone who knows voodoo!"
"If you push me, I'll kill you and take my wife to the voodoo cult. I believe their Sect Hierarch should grant me some respect, right?" Ye Xunhuan said heavily: "A favor from the overlord is substantial!"
"Commander, not all voodoos can be resolved even by voodoo cultists!" Di Xi said heavily: "You can try and see if the cult can help you!"
"Even if they find a way, does your wife have enough time to wait?"
"Commander, let me go, and I'll give you the antidote." Di Xi said seriously: "Otherwise, we'll be ruined together!"
Ye Xunhuan didn't say a word, instead, he stared fiercely at Di Xi and Hal.
Seeing Ye Xunhuan pause, Di Xi realized that Qiu Ruoxi's status in Ye Xunhuan's heart was greater than expected, and thus was less flustered, appearing much calmer.
Ye Xunhuan remained silent, and Di Xi didn't speak either, just quietly maintaining eye contact with Ye Xunhuan.
After an unknown length of time, Di Xi slowly spoke: "Commander, don't think of questioning me, it's useless!"
"You know it, and I know it, bowing down is death, either way, it's death, why not drag someone down with me!"
"You might as well seriously consider making this deal with me."
Ye Xunhuan took a deep breath and said helplessly: "You win, I'll let you go, leave the antidote behind!"
Upon hearing Ye Xunhuan say this, a smile immediately appeared on Di Xi's face: "You're straightforward, and I'll be quick!"
Di Xi cautiously extended his hand, poised to remove the blade from his own neck.
But the next moment, Ye Xunhuan's right hand trembled, shaking Di Xi's hand aside: "Leave the Taiji Seal behind, or you won't get away!"
At this moment, Hal, who had been silent all along, suddenly spoke up: "Di Xi, return the Taiji Seal to him!"
Upon hearing Hal's words, Di Xi's face slowly showed an unwilling expression, then threw the Taiji Seal back to Ye Xunhuan.
Seeing Ye Xunhuan put away the Taiji Seal, Hal spoke again: "Commander, the Taiji Seal is yours, and we'll give you the antidote. Can you take your sword away now?"
"Give me the antidote first!"
"Commander, you're not foolish, and neither are we. Giving you the antidote now is tantamount to seeking death!" Hal said heavily: "So I'll place the antidote aside, you go and take it yourself!"
"This way you can be assured, and we are safe, how's that?"
"How do I know you aren't tricking me?"
"Then there's no option left, now you'll just have to gamble with us." Hal said slowly: "Bet that we aren't deceiving you, bet that we can escape!"
"You'd best not deceive me, or heaven and earth, I'll grind you into dust!"
