Chapter 174  Killer Array! Sigfor trapped!

Chapter 174

He coughed up but quickly made some distance. Blood speckled the ground where he stood moments before, his breaths ragged and shallow. The attack just now had damaged him, and his internal organs were not in good shape.

Sigfor was extremely close to becoming a Rank-4 exorcist, while Jetia was still in Rank-3 in terms of strength.

Not only that, Sigfor was most likely a physical exorcist, which explained why his punches were so powerful and terrifying.

But he did not show a hint of worry now.

They were already inside the killer array!

"Haha, I have no words, impressive, you are a very skilled exorcist," Jetia praised, but Sigfor had no mood to listen to him. Just as he was about to launch another attack, he froze in his tracks.

He instantly focused down below on the ground, his expression changing drastically as he saw an array drawn in blood below him appear.

The sight of crimson lines, pulsating with a sinister glow, made his heart skip a beat.

It was then he heard Jetia's voice, "I truly might have died today at your hands if not for the killer array I specially prepared in case of emergency. And now look, it did come in handy."

Sigfor's anger skyrocketed as he released a dense espera to destroy the array. However, the moment his espera was released, the array sucked all of it quickly, and in return, dark red chains suddenly pierced through his body.

"Kuh-!" Sigfor grunted as he looked at the red chains with a difficult expression.

The chains, cold and unyielding, snaked through his flesh, leaving trails of agony in their wake. They were leaking out a dark espera while they invaded his defenses, slowly trying to corrupt his pure espera. It was clear that if he let this continue, he would be killed in the end.

He exerted a lot of force, and the chains started to rumble. More and more chains rose from the array, binding him down. But he kept moving, forcefully starting to tear the chains apart, with no care for his own body.

Jetia chuckled darkly, "Enjoy the power of my killer array. Even if you manage to escape the array, you will no longer be in a state to be my match. Wait here for me to return after I finish my mission."

'Mission?' Sigfor's brows furrowed as he heard the word.

'They are targeting the heirs!' He didn't need to think long before he realized what they were planning.

"Oh? Looks like you have realized our grand plan too? How do you feel now?" Jetia asked in a mocking voice, enjoying Sigfor's expressions.

"JETIA! Don't you dare touch the kids!" Sigfor roared in anger.

'Kids?'

However, Jetia frowned. What did he mean by that?

Sigfor yelled at him, "Don't dare lay your hands on the kids. Are you prepared to face the wrath of the five major clans at once!?"

Hearing Sigfor's words, Jetia could not help but shudder slightly.

Wrath of five major clans all at once?

What was going on?

The sect master had informed him how the exorcist was related to the Mystic Purge Clan and that they were going to great lengths to obtain the egg.

So why would all the five major clans be angry if they only mess with one clan?

Whatever he thought clearly did not make any sense. It was clear to him that neither the clans nor the exorcist with the bracelet of the demonic ghost were aware of the egg.

If they had been aware, then they would not have let the egg leave the clan's boundaries in the first place.

"What do you mean?" Jetia asked in a deep voice this time.

Sigfor menacingly struggled with the snake-like grip of the red chains as they too struggled to pierce his tougher-than-steel body.

"Don't play dumb, you bastard! The heirs of the clan cannot be touched by anyone unless they want to be hunted to the ends of the world!"

'Heirs?' Jetia's ears twitched as he heard it. n/ô/vel/b//in dot c//om

'Heirs… kids… the egg…'

It did not take long for Jetia to put two and two together, and he soon connected all the dots.

"Pfft-! HAHAHA! Who could have thought that things will turn so interesting!? HAHAHA!"

"To think that the heir of the Mystic Purge Clan would be the one we were after. So amusing, so very amusing."

Jetia pulled at his hair as his eyes turned crazed, his laughter echoing maniacally.

Not only was the heir of the Mystic Purge Clan there, but along with that, there were heirs from other major clans as well!

All of them in one single place!? It could not be any better than this!

If he really killed them all, then his fame and name would skyrocket all around the world, not just in human territories but also in demonic lands too!

He might finally become the first to be born as a demon by the grace of the higher-up…

Even if he did not kill those kids, he could still kidnap them and threaten the clan for anything.

Of course, it was incredibly risky to attack an heir. Not only were they guarded extremely well, but they also had all sorts of weird artifacts with them.

But looking at Sigfor's deadly expression, he was sure that those kids were not under supervision at the moment or were helpless right now.

He had hit a jackpot this time!

To think that the heir of the Mystic Purge Clan would come into the possession of the egg of the disaster beast?

How did that even happen?

He didn't know, but he could always interrogate such details later.

"Well then, I bid you farewell. We might never meet after this…" Jetia said as his eyes turned sinister, "Since you will be dead by then!"

"STOP RIGHT THERE AND FIGHT ME!" Sigfor could not contain his rage at that and tried to delay the situation.

"I wonder if they have already killed them or not…" Jetia casually wondered. His subordinates did not know about the identities of the exorcists. It would be a pity if they had killed them already.

A cold sweat broke out across his forehead as dread settled in his stomach. Sigfor's expression turned ashen when he heard this. He realized that enemies had already infiltrated the barrier without him noticing.

He felt so pathetic at the moment that he could not express it. Despite having strength, he let anger cloud his judgment, leading to such a situation.

If something happened, the clans would not spare him and his master. Even their lives would not be worth it to satisfy the damage.

Jetia soon left Sigfor alone and headed towards the mountain.

Sigfor could only frustratedly tear off the chains as more and more of them kept coming out.

Due to him not being able to use espera, he could not take out his artifacts either. He kept roaring in anger.

He had to break out of this killer array and reach back to the kids as soon as possible.

His master was not present at the moment. It was a truly dangerous situation!

Oliver looked with bated breath at the figure of the woman closing up to him.

His heart raced, and he could feel each thud against his ribs as if it were a drumbeat in the still air. He was using [Cosmic Void Gaze] to see her coming towards him.

He sighed. The woman was too accurate. It was likely that either he and Evelyn had something on them that allowed her to locate them so quickly.

She soon reached up to them, and now they were face to face.

He observed her features. The woman had dark hair and black pupils, she had thick lips and a chubby face, and she was exuding a sinister aura.

"Little kids?" she looked at the two in surprise and then back at the compass in her hand.

The needle quivered, pointing directly at them with unwavering certainty.

"Say, boy with white hair, you are from the Mystic Purge Clan, right?" she asked in a sly tone.

"That's right. What business do you have in chasing after us?" Oliver paused and asked. He needed more information about the whole situation.

"Well, little boy, you seem to have picked something accidentally that belongs to us. We hold it quite dear to our hearts," she replied with a smile.

"Huh?"

It was Oliver's turn to be confused as he looked at her. He did not remember taking anything belonging to these heretics.

And what was that weird looking compass in her hands, she seemed to be looking at the compass and then back at them two before her gaze finally settled on him with a sharp focus.

Oliver looked back at her, he could not understand what was this situation.

He should be able to remember if he had picked something significant for these heretics to follow after them and track them down.

So what was she talking about?
