Chapter 1644: Chapter 1644: The Strangling Formation in Space
Upon hearing this, Zhan Beiye’s expression turned stern.
He finally understood why Qian Jiyun had wanted everyone to leave the ship, to put the ship into An Jiuyue’s space.
That way, it was as if the ship was with them wherever they went, and there was no need to worry about someone else taking it—it was much more convenient.
But now…
“All of our people are here, so the people on the ship are… heh.”
Either Xiang Qifeng’s or the Liushang Sect’s people, right under their noses—this was indeed an eye-opener for him.
“Board the ship, search for people.”
He ordered Su Tang in a cold voice.
“Understood.”
Su Tang, having listened to their conversation, roughly understood the situation. He raised his hand to give the order to his guards to board the ship and search.
Yet, before they could board, they were stopped by An Jiuyue.
“There’s no need.”
An Jiuyue’s lips curled with a trace of cold amusement.
“All I need to confirm is that none of our own people are on board. That’s enough.”
“Ah?”
Zhan Beiye didn’t understand and looked at her.
Confirm that none of their people were on board, and then what? What would they do after that?
“And then?” he asked.
“Then? Of course, I’ll just collect the ship.”
An Jiuyue replied with a faint smile, suddenly producing a talisman in her hand, which flickered a few times under the sunlight.
As everyone watched, the paper in her hand caught fire from the sun’s scorching rays, and just as the flames were about to reach her fingers, she tossed the talisman into the air.
With a loud ‘boom,’ a massive golden-colored array formation opened up above the ship.
Almost simultaneously, the ship below began to warp at a speed visible to the naked eye and was quickly sucked into the formation.
“What is… this?”
Zhan Beiye muttered as he watched the array formation slowly vanish.
“That’s the Strangling Formation in my space. It cost me ten thousand points—I’m really feeling the pinch,” An Jiuyue said, a hint of genuine pain in her voice.
Spending ten thousand points just to kill a spy was unprecedented—she didn’t even spend that many points in the Points Mall to exchange for a few Paper Persons!!!
However, a spy that not even Wei Na could detect was certainly not someone these guards could find just like that.
Not wanting to waste time here, she had no choice but to spend more points. Fortunately, she had earned quite a few points before in the town by killing members of the Liushang Sect and obtaining Dragon Soul—it balanced out, making her a bit of profit.
“But since it can be used ten times, I guess it’s not a waste, huh? Next time people from the Liushang Sect come, I’ll just use the Strangling Formation to crush them and send them into the space, to serve as fertilizer. Qian Jiyun, what do you think?”
She asked the man beside her.
“Dirty.”
Qian Jiyun gave her a one-word reply.
“Well, forget it then, I’ll just save it for slow use in the future,” An Jiuyue pouted and said no more.
Indeed, the plants in her space were all precious—how could she use such things to water them? The thought alone disgusted her.
‘Gulp’ went the sound.
Behind Brother Zhen, Gu Qingyu watched them, and upon hearing their conversation, couldn’t help but swallow her saliva in fear.
These people were not to be trifled with. She had thought An Jiuyue was just a frail little girl but didn’t expect her to have such an artifact capable of crushing people to death.
If she tried to get close to Qian Jiyun, would this woman use the formation against her too?
