Chapter 157 Encirclement

Seeing a group of people all lying on the ground, Ouyang Chu Ge looked at Su Xi with shock in his eyes.

What kind of method was this, that it was so powerful?

Even if it was poisoning, it shouldn't have had such a rapid effect.

But Su Xi had only manipulated things with ease, and it had such great power. If such methods were used on the demons, it would very likely lead to their extinction.

Thinking of this, his gaze turned to Su Xi, his mind racing.

If he could obtain Su Xi's methods, then in the future, he would surely be able to achieve his own plans with greater ease. He had originally planned to kill Su Xi after she took him away, but now he had a different idea.

The most pressing matter was to bring Su Xi under his command.

Seeing everyone lying on the ground, Ouyang Chu Ge felt that the time was right and said, "Let's go, we'll make our move now."

If they didn't act quickly at this time, they didn't know when those people would react. Once that group of people increased their forces, it would be difficult for them to leave.

Therefore, they had to seize the opportunity and complete the mission as soon as possible.

Su Xi heard Ouyang Chu Ge's words, shook her head, and a cold glint appeared in her eyes, "Let's not act for now."

"Not act?" Ouyang Chu Ge looked at Su Xi in confusion, not knowing what else she wanted to do.

Opportunity knocks but once.

If they missed this opportunity, they didn't know when they would get another.

Su Xi also understood this principle. She wasn't doing this to drag things out, but had other arrangements.

At this moment, she took out another test tube from her body, skillfully removed the stopper, and poured the liquid inside out again.

The liquid fell to the ground, quickly turning into smoke and continuing to spread forward.

The previous ones were just appetizers, now came the main course.

Although she was confident in the virus she had created in a short period, she also knew that its effect wouldn't be that great. Now that so many people were lying on the ground, it was clearly not normal.

Those hidden people were clearly waiting for them to get close before making their move to capture them.

She didn't have much time to discern if there were any disguised people among this group, she just wanted to cut the Gordian knot.

Therefore, the fossilizing powder for treating corpses was the best choice.

This potion had no effect on living people, but its effect on the dead was very obvious.

As long as a person was dead and their body lacked oxygen supply, they would quickly be turned into a pile of ashes by this potion.

So, she didn't need to waste time measuring who among the people lying on the ground was pretending to be dead, she just needed to see who hadn't turned into ash yet.

Soon, most of the demons guarding in front had turned into ash. But there were still quite a few people lying on the ground, unharmed.

Su Xi saw those people lying on the ground and a smile appeared on her lips.

As expected, she knew things wouldn't be that simple.

No matter what kind of world it was, there would always be mutated individuals. Although these genetically mutated people wouldn't have any other special abilities, they were not easily susceptible to illness.

This group of surviving people were clearly genetically mutated individuals.

Their plan to ambush her was now destined to fail.

Ouyang Chu Ge saw this scene and his interest in Su Xi grew even more. Not only could she kill people, but she also had such a good way to identify who was faking death.

He didn't know when the demons had produced such an interesting person, and their methods were so novel.

The guarding commander saw this scene, realizing he could no longer deceive Su Xi. He no longer hid and ordered the people beside him, "Attack, don't let them live."

They had already discovered Su Xi's whereabouts. They hadn't made a move earlier precisely because they wanted Su Xi to walk into a trap. But since Su Xi hadn't fallen for it, they could only act quickly and not give Su Xi any opportunity.

The thought of someone sneaking in here filled Carl with rage.

He had to eliminate the intruders to prove his strength. Otherwise, if they were held accountable from above, he wouldn't be able to bear it.

Receiving Carl's order, the remaining people immediately attacked, charging towards Su Xi.

Su Xi saw these people charging at her, but there was no tension on her face. Instead, there was a faint smile.

These people were strong, but how was their intelligence so low?

Why didn't these people, who were following her properly, consider that she might have other methods?

Su Xi didn't attack. She simply raised her hand slightly towards the sky, and instantly her figure emitted a dazzling light, followed by the generation of lightning. Powerful lightning swept out in all directions.

"Boom!"

With a deafening sound, the people who were charging towards her were instantly engulfed by the lightning storm.

Some unlucky demons didn't even have time to scream before they turned into dust and were blown away to who knew where.

Carl saw this scene and his eyes nearly burst with rage.

For the demons to establish themselves, besides relying on their absolute strength, they also had to value the power they held.

Now, more than half of his subordinates were dead or injured, and his strength had been significantly reduced. Even if he could deal with Su Xi later, his status among the demons would plummet.

"Get out!" Carl roared in anger, trying to find Su Xi's true body.

But he had already searched all the nearby areas and couldn't find Su Xi's figure. The situation before him made him so angry that he almost spat blood on the spot.

So many of his subordinates had been killed, and he hadn't even seen the shadow of his opponent.

Suddenly, in his anxiety, Carl thought of a plan.

He then gathered his men and said loudly into the air, "I know why you're here, but if you don't show yourself, don't blame me for being ruthless."

After speaking, Carl nodded to his subordinate, signaling him to bring the person out.

Soon, a demon brought an elite disciple from the Five Great Immortal Mountains out of the prison.

An elder from Xianling Mountain, who was beautiful, was dressed in tattered clothes, with unnatural bruises on her lips, clearly having suffered "severe torture."

Carl grabbed Zhang Caining's face and said fiercely into the void, "If you don't come out, I'll interrogate her thoroughly right in front of you."

After speaking, to increase his credibility, he directly tore off Zhang Caining's clothes, revealing her many wounds.

"No."

Zhang Caining looked at Carl with teary eyes, constantly begging for mercy.

Her spiritual power was sealed, and she had now become a normal person. Even though she was very angry, she was completely unable to resist Carl and could only let him do as he pleased.

At this moment, besides tears, there seemed to be nothing else she could use to vent her emotions.

Carl heard Zhang Caining's pleas, but instead of letting her go, he became even more excited.

Without hesitation, he directly began to interrogate Zhang Caining.

For a moment, a series of interrogations filled the room, along with Zhang Caining's occasional sobs.

Su Xi and Ouyang Chu Ge did not expect to see this scene. Their foreheads were covered in dark lines, and they felt an inexplicable admiration for Carl's convoluted thinking.

He actually thought of using such a method to lure them out.
