The Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens looked around and snorted lightly. “Didn’t you get the approval of the Seventy two Heavenly Immortal-slaying Formation? Could it be that you still lack confidence in this spell formation? It’s just a slightly bigger saltfish. What is there to worry about?”
She said that as a matter of course while playing it down.
Alex knew her origin, so he was not too surprised. However, Ynes was stunned and secretly sized up the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens with her beautiful eyes. Other than feeling slightly ashamed of her inferiority, she could not understand why Mystic Maiden would brag so much.
“Who… Is she to you?” Ynes secretly asked Alex.
“Oh, my elder sister!” Alex was mindful of his dignity, so he answered as such.
The Mystic Maiden glanced at Alex, not intending to correct him or explain anything. However, the unmovable Pigsy, sealed at the side, could not help emitting pig squeals. “Little minion, you really know how to blow your own trumpet. What elder sister? That’s your master. You’re just a slave to your master.”
Alex’s face darkened. “Pigsy, I’ve made up my mind. We’ll cross the Endless Sea to find that great opportunity, but you’ll be sealed here forever to become an Atlantis City steward.”
The old pig heard him. How could that work?
He already felt it extremely unbearable to be sealed here, even for a moment. If he was going to be sealed here forever, he might as well just die.
“Ahem. Boss, I was wrong. You aren’t a slave. I’m the slave. Let me out first. It’s so unbearable…”
The old pig jabbered, begging loudly for mercy.
Alex did not let it go. Instead, he even isolated its voice and picked up the grilled peacock meat before feasting on it. He also tore a large piece of meat for Ynes, by the way.
At first, Ynes was still a little conflicted as she thought about the peacock that had possessed a human body. When she thought about it, it was not unlike eating human flesh. However, this grilled meat was fragrant and carried wisps of spiritual energy. That energy seemed to carry a barbequed aroma, giving her some sort of pleasure when she sniffed it. Under Alex’s encouragement, she bit a little off and ate it. A few seconds later, she could not stop eating it.
“This meat… Is really fragrant!”
“After eating it, my entire body is comfortably warm, and there’s a surge of energy swirling around it.”
“Oh gosh, why do I feel like I’m about to transcend?”
The great shark at the periphery of the ancient city soon noticed Alex and the others who came out of the spell formation.
As this guy’s humongous body trembled, the undersea rippled. Once it roared, all the undead demon beasts also followed the rhythm and unleashed their aura, filling the surroundings with murderous intent as well as the aura of the Undying Clan.
It even began yelling and cursing whatever was unpleasant.
Thus, the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens suffered a torrent of abuse to the point that her face darkened.
Meanwhile, Alex, next to her, put on a strange look because that foul-mouthed shark surprisingly said that the Mystic Maiden of the Nine Heavens was his old, shameless admirer who served the same man with another woman… He really did not know how a shark could know so many things?
“I’m going to blow its mouth off!” Mystic Maiden said coldly.
The next moment, she pulled Alex’s hand.
