Chapter 744: The Ox Seat Attacks Again (2/10, please subscribe)

The Ox Seat was first stunned, his expression still somewhat dazed.

His memory was still stuck on the image of Fang Yue severing his ox-headed chest.

But he recovered quickly.

Looking down at the bewildered Captain Wu below, the Ox Seat grinned with a savage expression.

"How convenient — no effort wasted at all!"

Crack!

Crack!

The glass around the Experimental Pod developed cracks one after another, and the nutrient fluid seeped out through the fissures.

Accompanied by a tremor of the Ox Seat's internal force!

Boom!!

The glass shattered into pieces, and with a flash of the Ox Seat's figure and a thunderous bang, he had already pressed one hand onto Captain Wu's face, slamming his entire body into the ground.

The floor cracked apart, forming a large human-shaped crater.

"Captain Wu?!" Dou Hongyi cried out in alarm.

At that moment, the subdued Captain Wu struggled violently, and amid a fierce bellow, a brilliant golden light flared.

The Ox Seat's expression shifted slightly — he was actually sent flying by that force, crashing hard into the Experimental Pod and gouging out a human-shaped dent.

"Lord Ox Seat!?"

The Phoenix Organization members cried out in alarm, but the Ox Seat merely walked out of the human-shaped dent with a dark expression, rolled his shoulders to limber up, and said calmly: "Don't worry, they can't make any waves."

Having said that, the Ox Seat slowly raised his right hand.

Under everyone's watchful gaze, his right hand… visibly turned transparent and vanished! And from the top of his head, two ox horns slowly emerged.

That appearance was just like… a living Yin Void!

"Lord Ox Seat, this is… this is! The experiment succeeded!"

Under the confused gazes of the others, the rest of the Phoenix Organization members trembled with excitement, their emotions fervent.

"That's right, I have fully merged with the power of 【Yin Void】, but unfortunately… cough!"

He coughed, and fresh blood seeped from the corner of the Ox Seat's mouth.

Using a special secret Martial Technique, along with the Divine Phoenix True Blood drawn from Captain Wu, he had achieved the effect of cheating death after the experiment.

But the new body had consumed all the precious materials he had accumulated over so many years to achieve this current result.

Fully merging the power of 【Yin Void】 into his body, making it his own!

But a pirated copy is ultimately inferior to the genuine article — a fake Yin Void body simply cannot use the Yin Void power for long, and each use of this power inflicts a tremendous burden on the body.

However, if it meant achieving victory through surprise, even against Feng Wang and Huang Hou, he was confident he could drag someone down!

But right now, having just been killed once by Fang Yue, his body was extremely weak. Dealing with the people before him was naturally no problem, but if he ran into Fang Yue… there was absolutely no way he could leave the base alive!

Fight fast… fight to end quickly!

His figure flashed.

Moving at high speed, the Ox Seat's body seemed to transform into a white stream of light, becoming completely transparent and vanishing mid-path!

Just as Captain Wu barely reacted…

Boom!!

His chest caved in directly with a fist imprint, bursting out from his back!

Boom!!

The second-stage damage exploded, his chest bursting open with a bloody hole, his eyes going vacant for a moment before he collapsed straight to the ground.

Dou Hongyi and the others stared blankly at the fallen Captain Wu, and when they looked up again, only terror and fear remained on their faces.

Their trembling legs carried their shaking bodies as they turned and fled!

"Run… run!!"

"But, but Captain Wu is still there!"

Dou Hongyi said nothing, simply turning and running for his life.

He heard the successive piercing screams behind him, yet he didn't even glance back once!

Because he knew clearly… they couldn't win!

The Ox Seat — that guy — was simply not an existence they could deal with!

Dou Hongyi didn't know where he was running to, didn't know how long he had been running, his mind remaining in a taut, dazed state, until…

Bang!!

With a heavy thud, he seemed to have crashed into a wall, fell to the ground, and only then came back to his senses.

He looked up, but a voice of pleasant surprise rang in his ears.

"Dou Hongyi?! That's great, I was just worrying about where to find you guys. By the way, where are Captain Wu and the others?"

Against the dim light of the Human Soul lamp, Dou Hongyi barely made out the person who had spoken, and couldn't help showing a look of astonishment.

"Lord… Ye?"

"It's me."

Fang Yue helped Dou Hongyi up, and along with the three people beside him, looked at Dou Hongyi with puzzlement.

"Did something happen? Why do you look so wretched? What happened over there?"

"Right, right! Lord Ye, come with me quickly! Captain Wu is in danger!"

Captain Wu was in trouble?

His expression changed, and Fang Yue hurriedly followed.

With Dou Hongyi leading the way, the few of them quickly returned to the previous location.

Yet the scene was a complete mess, with corpses strewn across the ground, and there were no other living people at all.

"Captain Wu's body isn't here… he may have been taken!"

Jing Yan said after a quick inspection.

"…Ox Seat!"

Fang Yue clenched his fist.

Earlier, when Ox Seat had died, there had been no system notification, and he had found it strange all along.

Now that he knew Ox Seat had revived from the Experimental Pod and taken Captain Wu with him, his heart sank even further.

"Don't let me catch you, or for old and new grudges alike, I will tear you into ten thousand pieces!"

Taking a deep breath, Fang Yue forced himself to calm down and asked, "Is there any way to find out where they escaped to?"

Qing Cheng fell silent for a moment, then pointed ahead: "That guy left a message over there."

Left a message?

Fang Yue had been busy checking for breath, seeing if any survivors were still alive, and hadn't paid attention to the situation at the Experimental Pod.

Leaning over to look, Fang Yue's pupils contracted slightly, and his face darkened.

"Yese Liming, if you want Captain Wu to live, come to Qing Cheng for a chat!"

In the bottom right corner of the message was a signature — the two characters Ox Seat!

"Ox! Seat!!"

Bang!!

Fang Yue slammed his fist into the ground.

It was truly losing the wife and the troops as well.

He had been careless, never imagining that this guy could, after dying violently in Chunuan City, revive at the Phoenix Organization's base and even take Captain Wu away.

What on earth was this ghostly ability? Could it be that he also possessed the Phoenix Cry power of revival, just like Captain Wu?

Fang Yue was puzzled, but without a doubt, no matter how many times Ox Seat could revive or to what extent.

Next time they met, Fang Yue would blast Ox Seat into atoms!

"Qing Cheng… if Ox Seat returns to Qing Cheng, things will get troublesome. That's the Phoenix Organization's lair, their headquarters. Fighting on enemy turf is disadvantageous to us!"

Jing Yan looked worried, but Qing Cheng shook his head slightly: "Actually, it's fine. Qing Cheng is right under the Emperor's feet, and the Phoenix Organization is, at the end of the day, an underground organization that can't see the light of day. They won't dare act rashly, but we can borrow external force! Borrow strength to strike strength, and rescue Captain Wu!"

Fang Yue had also calmed down by now and asked, "You mean…"

"The Government has four great organizations — 【Green Bureau】, 【Blue Coral】, 【Red Department】, 【Purple Hall】. For a great merit like annihilating the Phoenix Organization, they certainly won't pass it up."

"But even if they want to destroy the Phoenix Organization, they have no reason to cooperate with us. Moreover, the Phoenix Organization has existed for so many years, lurking in that area of Qing Cheng, and we've never seen the Government lift a finger."
