Facing Lu Zixun’s fierce attack, Gai Yue calmly stepped back.
At that moment, Lu Zixun finally saw the array that Gai Yue’s body was blocking.
His pupils contracted as he stared at the array, and just as Lu Zixun intended to control his body to retreat, countless blood strands emerged from the array, tightly entangling Lu Zixun’s limbs.
Struggling to break free, Lu Zixun found the blood strands unusually sturdy and couldn’t possibly break them with brute strength.
"Ding—Teasing value from Gai Yue +4000."
"You must think you’re very smart, don’t you?"
Watching Lu Zixun, who was fixed in mid-air, Gai Yue’s eyes were mocking, "Little do you know we have a backup plan? It seems that creatures who associate with humans also become arrogant and conceited."
The tube that Guo Xin’er had seen was slowly injecting blood into the array channels.
The so-called backup plan by Gai Yue must be this second Mutant Array.
Lu Zixun’s eyes darkened with no hint of panic in his heart.
Instead, he was reflecting on his own shortcomings, realizing he should not have lost his composure over a trivial matter.
Gai Yue, hearing no response from Lu Zixun, walked in front of him, raising his hand to grab Lu Zixun’s head, "Is it really that fun to help humans? Or did they offer you something nice?"
Who says a cat can’t spit? Lu Zixun opened his mouth and spat right in Gai Yue’s face.
Lu Zixun looked coldly at Gai Yue and taunted, "None of your damn business."
Lu Zixun’s actions obviously infuriated Gai Yue, who wiped the cat saliva off his face.
A dagger flickering with black flames appeared in Gai Yue’s hand, "It’s inevitable to resort to some excessive measures when capturing the Orange Cat. Besides, the Orange Cat injured my younger brother, so it’s justifiable for me to be a bit more heavy-handed, don’t you agree?"
Gai Yue made a gesture over Lu Zixun’s heart, sneered, and the dagger pulled down, ready to stab toward Lu Zixun’s abdomen.
Just as the blade was about to touch Lu Zixun, Magnetic Field Control was activated, flipping the surrounding magnetic field.
The powerful force caused Gai Yue to lose grasp of the dagger, which flew into the air.
"Ding—Anger value from Gai Yue +4000."
Gai Yue’s body lifted slightly off the ground, regaining his composure, his face showing even greater fury.
His right hand transformed into a Blood Flesh Steel Knife, slashing towards Lu Zixun with one quick strike.
With his limbs entangled by the blood strands, Lu Zixun had no way to dodge and had to withstand the strike.
The grating metallic clang resounded—Gai Yue’s Blood Flesh Steel Knife couldn’t penetrate the nano armor that covered Lu Zixun’s surface.
Seeing disbelief on Gai Yue’s face, Lu Zixun’s eyes gleamed with increased scorn, "So you’re this trashy—it’s quite disappointing."
Taking a deep breath, Gai Yue silently pushed towards the outside of the array, folding his arms and watching Lu Zixun: "It seems I can only properly teach you a lesson once you’ve transformed into a Mutant Beast."
The array’s channels were about to be filled with blood.
The Evil Dragon Tooth in the center was also emitting a seductive black light as Lu Zixun slowly closed his eyes.
Just when Gai Yue thought Lu Zixun was giving up, in the next moment, Lu Zixun suddenly opened his eyes—what were once emerald had now turned into translucent sapphire.
Waves of Frost Power began to spread from Lu Zixun’s body, covering the lawn with a thin layer of light frost.
Uttering two words calmly, the blood within the array channels froze into ice.
The Evil Dragon Tooth flickering with black light suddenly became still.
An Ice Blade, charged with Frost Power, appeared out of thin air, severing all the blood strands that bound Lu Zixun’s limbs.
Landing perfectly, Lu Zixun bared his fangs at Gai Yue: "Have you ever seen... a genius?"
"Ding—Shock value detected from Gai Yue +4000."
"Tri-element Spirit Beast!"
Pupils dilated, Gai Yue incredulously stared at Lu Zixun and bellowed a sentence.
Nodding slightly in acknowledgment, Lu Zixun’s gaze toward Gai Yue was filled with killing intent.
Just as Gai Yue attempted to flee, he found his limbs incredibly heavy.
Looking down, he realized his limbs had been unknowingly encased in ice.
"Cold Radiance Spear."
A long spear emanating cold air appeared behind Lu Zixun.
He raised his paw and aimed at Gai Yue’s heart, slashing forcefully—the spear suddenly thrust toward Gai Yue.
A bladed weapon appeared behind Gai Yue, blocking the Cold Radiance Spear.
Lu Zixun, whose strike had failed, didn’t show any signs of annoyance but instead started to laugh.
His paw clenched fiercely, Lu Zixun said in a deep voice, "Shatter!"
The Cold Radiance Spear suddenly exploded behind Gai Yue, transforming into numerous sharp knife fragments that pierced through Gai Yue’s back.
Gai Yue, severely injured at the back, spat out blood with a "Pfft."
Lu Zixun was naturally not someone who understood compassion or showed mercy, let alone one to restrain himself when holding the advantage. He knew the principle of striking a snake at its weakest—a principle Lu Zixun understood well.
Magnetic Field Control was deployed in the area enveloped by the Frost Power, and with the reversal of the magnetic field coupled with the enhancement from Frost Descent, Gai Yue could be said to be immobile.
Even turning around to confront Lu Zixun was impossible.
"Ding—Despair Value detected from Gai Yue +4000."
A longsword carrying both metal and ice appeared beside Lu Zixun.
Under Lu Zixun’s control, it slashed swiftly toward Gai Yue’s skull.
To kill a Parasitic Beast, decapitation was undoubtedly the best method.
"Ding—Killing Intent Value detected from Gai Tiandi +12000."
Just as Lu Zixun was about to decapitate Gai Yue, a sharp blade, disregarding Lu Zixun’s magnetic field reversal and Frost Descent, swung down from the sky and shattered Lu Zixun’s longsword.
Another person from the Gu family?
Faced with this sudden arrival, Lu Zixun didn’t rashly attack Gai Yue.
Cautiously watching the source of the bladed attack.
A man dressed in a black coat descended from the sky...
Lu Zixun blinked. Someone who could fly in the air was either superpowered or an S-level Genetic Optimization Soldier.
And since he had the surname Gu, it seemed he was a King-level Abnormal Creature, time to run.
After weighing the disparity in strength between himself and his enemy, Lu Zixun prepared to escape. The imbalance in power meant certain death if he didn’t act decisively.
Before Lu Zixun could take off, dense threads of blood appeared in Gai Tiandi’s hand and immediately ensnared Lu Zixun.
Lu Zixun, tied up like a dumpling, lay on the road totally bewildered. What just happened?
He was bound before he could even see the movement; such was the power of a King-level Creature.
Picking up the Evil Dragon Tooth from the center of the Array, Gai Tiandi, ready to insert the Evil Dragon Tooth into Lu Zixun’s heart, saw a red light flickering on Lu Zixun’s forehead, causing his brow to furrow.
Looking down at Lu Zixun for a moment.
Gai Tiandi asked in an icy voice, "What is your relationship with Yue Sichen?"
