Chapter 1669 - 1655: Leaving the Palace
At the same time, in a certain black space, four figures shrouded in black Qi stood silently.
Three of them were You Quan, Hong Ku, and Ma Xiuxiu; the fourth, however, was a short figure in a black robe.
This person’s hand emitted sparkling black light, and soon after, a black demon butterfly about the size of a foot materialized in their palm, which burst into countless specks of black light with a "pop".
Upon witnessing this scene, You Quan and the other two let out a sigh of relief.
"It’s good that we made it in time; otherwise, the consequences would have been unimaginable! You Quan, the three of you actually failed to bring back the Sacred Bone Claw Spike, and Demon Ancestor Lord is extremely disappointed!" the short figure said to the other three in a cold voice.
"Subordinates admit their fault and ask for the Honorable One’s punishment!" You Quan and the others kneeled hastily, their voices trembling as they spoke.
The short figure snorted coldly, ignored the three, and took out a blood-colored Jade Symbol, which they activated with an incantation.
Blood Light flickered on the Jade Symbol, and voices that fluctuated in volume came from within, unintelligible to You Quan and the others who dared not even breathe heavily.
The short figure bowed halfway, nodding gently towards the Blood Light, an attitude of utmost respect.
A moment later, the Blood Light on the Jade Symbol slowly faded and returned to normal.
